But, of course, it's as apostolic as Bergoglio is orthodox.
The name of the apostolic constitution is, just guess, Veritatis Gaudium.
Yeah, another one of those Gaudium pieces.
Just like, you know, Gaudium et Space, the 1964 Vatican II pastoral constitution on the church in the modern world,
or Evangelii Gaudium that France has published in 2013, for example.
Gaudium is Latin.
And for joy, and it's not the only Latin term meaning joy, there's also Laetitia, for example,
as in Amoris Laetitia, the joy of love.
So, yeah, there's once again a whole lot of joy going on.
And some conservative novelist orders on the internet have already sounded the alarm
because this new document, Veritatis Gaudium, declares in Article 26, Paragraph 2,
quote,
Well, yeah, I mean, duh.
You know, it's always interesting when those self-styled orthodox Catholics who can't stand Bergoglio
discover Catholic teaching on the papacy.
Why should it be outrageous, odd, or in any way objectionable,
that teachers of the Catholic faith or of morality have to adhere to the papal magisterium?
I mean, that is something that you can probably find verbatim in the writings of Pope Pius IX, for instance.
Oh, but this shows Francis wants teachers to agree with his false doctrines.
Well, of course he does.
But the problem isn't with the Catholic teaching on submission to the papal magisterium.
The problem is with thinking that Jorge Bergoglio is pope.
Once again, the papacy has consequences.
The only way to not be tainted with heresy here is to reject Francis' claim to the papacy.
You cannot get out of the situation by tinkering with the Catholic understanding of the papacy
because then you're in heresy also.
And at the end of the day, it doesn't matter if you're in hell for denying the indissolubility of marriage
or for denying the papacy.
What a tragic irony it would be if you were.
You're going to end up sitting in hell next to Francis.
And he'd laugh at you, saying,
See? I knew I'd get you into heresy one way or another.
So anyway, Veritatis Gaudium.
You know, ever since John XXIII, the Vatican has placed so much emphasis on document titles.
In case you don't know, the title of any document is determined by the first two or three words of the opening sentence.
And so sometimes you would end up with really odd titles.
Such as Mortalium Animus, which means the minds of mortals.
Or Quum Deo Turnum, which means when the long.
But the modernists are clever.
See, they determine beforehand what title a document is to get.
And then they cobble together an opening sentence that will result in just that desired title.
The consequence of that is that sometimes the opening sentences are a bit, well, odd.
And Veritatis Gaudium is no exception.
Let me quote the first sentence.
The joy of truth expresses the restlessness of the human heart until it encounters and dwells within God's light and shares that light with all people.
Now let me read that again.
Let me read that again.
The joy of truth expresses the restlessness of the human heart until it encounters and dwells within God's light.
And shares that light with all people.
That is the opening sentence of Veritatis Gaudium.
And it doesn't make a whole lot of sense, does it?
Also, a document's title is based on the language it's originally written in, which is usually Latin.
But of course, in the Novels Ordo, I'm not sure they even bother anymore with the Latin text.
So far, no Latin version has been released for Veritatis Gaudium.
And Evangelii Gaudium, which was published on November 24th in 2013, still doesn't have a Latin version.
That's probably because they couldn't figure out how to translate sourpuss.
I'm not kidding!
That word is found in paragraph number 85 of Evangelii Gaudium, in the plural, sourpusses.
Anyway, so Francis releases a document on the joy of truth.
Five days after...
Yeah, did you hear about that?
On January 24th, Francis published a message for World Communications Day against fake news.
In it, he says, quote,
Nor can we ever stop seeking the truth, because falsehood can always creep in, even when we state things that are true.
An impeccable argument can indeed rest on undeniable facts.
But if it is used to hurt another, and to discredit that person in the eyes of others, however correct it may appear, it is not truthful.
We can recognize the truth of statements from their fruits, whether they provoke quarrels, foment division, encourage resignation, or, on the other hand, they promote informed and mature reflection, leading to constructive dialogue and fruitful results, unquote.
This is so bad.
In other words, if the message makes you uncomfortable, it isn't true.
Not truly true.
You know, as in, woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because you are like to whited sepulchers, which outwardly appear to men beautiful, but within are full of dead men's bones, and of all filthiness.
So you also...
You know, as in, woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because you are like to whited sepulchers, which outwardly indeed appear to men just, but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
And that was a quote from our Lord Jesus Christ, by the way, St. Matthew's Gospel, chapter 23, verses 27 and 28.
So with his new pragmatic definition of truth, Francis has just made Christ a liar, another blasphemy.
Well, what's one more at this point, right?
But that fits perfectly with what else?
The Pope just said, namely, that God is the father of all religions.
Yeah.
He said that on January 27th at the end of an audience with members of the Italian Red Cross.
Well, he used the word confessions, actually, saying God is the father of all confessions.
Same thing, though.
That's blasphemy, it's heresy, it's apostasy.
No, God is not and could never be the author.
He's not the author of error or lies.
Francis is calling God the father of lies.
Remember who the father of lies is?
The devil, Satan.
Christ said, he is a liar and the father thereof.
That's John 8, 44.
This is where we're at, folks.
Bergoglio blasphemes again and again, and nobody notices or cares.
Francis has identified God with the devil again.
And this isn't the first time he's done it.
Remember when he said that Christ made himself the devil on the cross.
That was on April 4th, 2017.
Francis is on record saying that Christ probably had to ask pardon of St. Joseph and the Blessed Mother
when he stayed in Jerusalem in the temple.
Francis has joked about Christ's crucifixion, and he's joked about the Holy Trinity.
And he's declared that the Rohingya Muslims are the present.
The presence of God in our day.
The guy is a devil.
