The irony: today, Vatican II critics like PiusX support most of Vatican II, while its neo-modernist "defenders" do not. - Rao

https://www.gloria.tv/post/N9BFZ4CygAa231iFf9PvsvitpHistorian: Francis' Pontificate Is the Worst In History

Francis has created clear fronts between those who are for us and those who are against us, New York historian John Rao told Gloria.tv at Italy's Roman Forum (video below).

For Rao, creating this clarity is the only good thing about Francis. Otherwise, he says, this "is the absolute worst pontificate in the history of the Catholic Church - there's nothing to compare it to." Rao calls Francis and his tenure "an absolute disaster".

He explains that previous popes, who were bad because of their moral behaviour, would not have dreamed of "changing" doctrine, while now there are bishops who call this pontificate "the reign of pure arbitrariness".

Francis has done more than anyone else to destroy the authority of Peter and has replaced it with "a personal despotism that has absolutely no limits" while ignoring canon law.

On Traditionis Custodes, Rao notes that in the Archdiocese of New York, as in many other dioceses, there has been no real change. In the US, three dioceses show a special hatred for the Roman Mass: Chicago (Cupich), Washington (Gregory) and St Augustine, Florida (Pohlmeier).

For Rao, it's clear that Francis' attempt to return to the 1970s is failing: "We're never going back to private little living rooms and hotels." Back then, many still thought the bishops would take care of the problems, "today we know better."

Rao calls the Vatican bankrupt and incapable of enforcing obedience. Since Vatican II (1962-65), there has been a history of ignoring what comes out of Rome, "They won't drive us back into the catacombs."

He calls Francis' attempt to reaffirm the Second Vatican Council an absurdity: "What do people support about Vatican II who claim to support Vatican II?" he asks.

The irony: today, Vatican II critics like PiusX support most of Vatican II, while its neo-modernist "defenders" do not.

What Mr. Voris fails to admit is that it is the institution of the conciliar fake church that is the biggest enemy of the Faith.

Might Biden be a Liar & Predator like McCarrick?

September 15, 2020   Everyone knows that sexual predator ex-cardinal Theodore McCarrick is a liar. His whole life was a lie of betrayal of the most sacred vows he took and the violation of the moral tenets of the Catholic faith which he desecrated. Most people don't realize that part of this desecration of lies included lying for "gravely sinful" Democrats like Joe Biden. McCarrick protected Biden when then head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (later to be Pope Benedict XVI) wrote that bishops were not to admit to Communion politicians like "gravely sinful" Biden who supports the killing of unborn babies. McCarrick lied for politicians like Biden by ignoring the important parts of the Ratzinger letter and told bishops not to ignore the Catholic Church law.  Last year, Fr. Robert Morey denied Holy Communion to the “gravely sinful” Biden following a "2004 decree signed jointly by the bishops of
