Did you hear about it?
Last Friday, on March 1st, Pope Francis had some tough words for gender ideology.
He gave an address to participants in the international conference
Man-Woman, Image of God, Towards an Anthropology of Vocations.
But just before he read a speech, he made some impromptu remarks in the Vatican Senate Hall
that made headlines.
Today, the worst danger is gender ideology, which cancels out differences.
I asked for studies to be made on this ugly ideology,
of our time, which erases differences and makes everything the same.
To erase difference is to erase humanity.
Unquote.
There. There you go.
There you have it.
Francis is orthodox.
You heard it.
He's ripping that evil gender ideology to shreds.
Bam!
Yeah, it's just too bad that his strong words don't match his actions.
I mean, you know which...
Which ones speak louder, right?
In terms of actions, Francis has been bending over backwards
to facilitate the introduction of transgenderism into the Church,
into parish life.
He does this by his oh-so-merciful acceptance of so-called transgender people,
basically sodomite cross-dressers, or in more serious cases,
people who've had their bodies mutilated and now claim to be the opposite sex.
than the one God gave them.
There is no question that such people need help,
but not the kind Francis is offering them.
By his actions, and sometimes even by his words,
he assures them that they are fine the way they are.
To prove that, let me read to you just some of the Novus Ordo wash headlines
of recent years in which Francis, directly or indirectly,
helped to affirm gender ideology.
Along with LGBTQ whatever.
And helped to homosexualize his Church.
Here we go.
Vatican opens way for transgender godparents, baptisms, and marriage witnesses.
Podcasting Francis tells transgender person,
God loves us as we are.
In message to LGBTQ Catholics,
Francis confirms aberosexuals,
and their identity.
False Pope calls for sodomite civil unions,
wants children of gay couples to be raised in church.
Francis praises none for building homes for transgenders.
Francis assures parents of sodomites,
God loves your children as they are.
Francis tells gay atheists,
it does not matter how you live your life,
you do not lose your dignity.
Francis tells homosexual,
God made you like that.
Welcome to the peripheries.
Francis receives sex-changed woman and her fiancée.
And one headline from Tradition in Action.
Papal Blessing for Transgender Prostitutes.
You can find all of these headlines linked in the show notes for this episode,
Stratcast Express 187,
and they will take you to articles where you can find more information about
what exactly Francis said or did,
and where to find it.
So, there is full documentation.
So, Francis talked tough on gender,
but his actions tell a different story.
And that's a typical strategy for the man.
We've seen it before.
For example, on abortion.
He rarely addresses the topic,
but when he does, he's got strong rhetoric.
But then, at the same time,
he is happy to invite major pro-abortion people into the Vatican
without even a hint of rebuke or displeasure.
Look up Francis receiving Emma Bonino, for example,
or Jeffrey Sachs, or Nancy Pelosi, or Joe Biden.
It's always the same story.
The conservatives get the words,
the liberals get the actions.
Francis is a man of practice over theory,
of action over doctrine.
Remember, in his 2013 exhortation,
Evangelii Gaudium, paragraph 233,
he spelled it out, quote,
realities are greater than ideas, unquote.
In other news, the Recognize and Resist publication,
The Remnant,
has the infuriating habit of leading souls
very close to the truth,
but then dissuading them from proceeding any further.
We see this, for example,
in a January 29th, 2024 article by Robert Morrison,
entitled,
By Counteracting the Messages of Fatima,
the False Shepherds Demonstrate the Key to the Third Secret,
Apostasy at the Top.
Well, what do you know?
False shepherds who are apostates
at the very top of the church hierarchy.
Now, who might that be?
Don't you go there, though.
The false shepherds were already present,
Morrison says, in the decades following Vatican II.
But don't you dare say that if they're false shepherds,
then they cannot be the Roman Catholic hierarchy,
because the Catholic hierarchy consists of the true,
that is, the lawful shepherds,
which is kind of the point of Christ establishing
a visible church with a hierarchy to begin with.
Morrison concludes with an exhortation,
quote,
Those who rightly want to remove Francis
from his unholy occupation of the papacy
must also be willing to abandon everything
about the Vatican II revolution
that led to the great apostasy
that ushered Francis into the Vatican.
Unquote.
So there we go once more.
There's apostasy, which we must remember
is nothing short of the complete abandonment
of the Catholic religion.
There's apostasy at the very top
of the Catholic hierarchy, says Morrison,
such that these people are actually false shepherds,
and especially one chief false shepherd
who nevertheless holds the papacy.
But don't worry, you can wish to remove him,
as long as you also reject the apostate magisterium
of this man and his revolutionary predecessors.
Yes, such is the argumentation of people
who consider themselves the last defenders
of the faithful Catholic remnant.
Unquote.
You know, this is all rather serious business.
In 1927, Catholic seminary professor
Father Sylvester Berry published
the first edition of his book
The Church of Christ,
an apologetic and dogmatic treatise.
In it, he wrote this.
Quote,
The prophecies of the apocalypse
The prophecies of the apocalypse show
that Satan will imitate
the church of Christ to deceive mankind.
He will set up a church of Satan
in opposition to the church of Christ.
Antichrist will assume the role of messiahs.
His prophet will act the part of pope.
And there will be imitations
of the sacraments of the church.
There will also be lying wonders
in imitation of the miracles wrought in the church.
Unquote.
You can find that on page 119
of the 1927 edition
and on pages 65 and 66
of the 1955 edition
of Father Berry's book
The Church of Christ.
Now, that brings me to a video
published on October 4th, 2023
by Recognize and Resist YouTuber
Kennedy Hall.
It's entitled
They Are Doing the Work of the Antichrist.
Let's take a quick listen.
You gotta understand,
when the antichrist comes,
there will be a parallel church.
There will be an institutional body
that will masquerade itself as the true church
and this will be used to help and support the antichrist.
Hmm.
I wonder what church that might be.
Maybe one that has an apostate magisterium
and false shepherds masquerading as true ones
at the very top?
Or do Recognize and Resist traditionals
really believe that the false
parallel church of the antichrist
will ape the Vatican II church?
Just picture the false church of the antichrist
trying to imitate, oh, I don't know,
ecumenism?
Interreligious dialogue?
The Vatican II magisterium?
The annulment factory?
The Novus Ordo sacraments?
I mean, how would that even look?
I guess for the new mass it could mean that
not only is there no body and blood of Christ,
there isn't even real bread and real wine either.
I don't know.
In any case, it's obviously absurd and silly to think
there is yet to come some demonic antichurch
that will fool people into believing it's
the Novus Ordo church.
So therefore, either the institution
of which Jorge Bergoglio, Francis, is the head,
is the Roman Catholic Church,
established by Jesus Christ,
in which case a future antichurch
would be imitating it,
or the institution headed by Francis
is not the Catholic Church,
and then he's not the Pope,
and we can't have anything to do
with him or his church.
What we definitely cannot have
is a sort of mish-mash
between the two alternatives.
Somehow it is the Catholic Church,
and Francis is the Pope,
but nonetheless, the Pope and the church
are doing the work of the satanic antichurch,
preparing the way for the antichrist.
In which case, what would we even need
that demonic ape of the church for?
Obviously, such a scenario is complete absurdity,
not to mention heresy,
that would quickly lead to,
what do you know, apostasy.
