The Pope Francis Glide into Facism



I listened to the speech today. It was the dalai lama.

Several minutes after leaving Obama, he announced he would veto any bill that defunds murderers of unborn children. Minutes after leaving Congress, the Senate blocked attempts to defund human atrocities at planned parenthood.

The opportunity to save hundreds of thousands of lives existed and the Holy Father deliberately and willfully talked about the death penalty, the air and Dorothy Day.

There is something really strange about his quote on the family.

It's a little ambiguous and could be taken out of context and twisted, but it seems a legitimate acknowledgment of the heretics in the Church and the diabolical disorientation in the culture. But then there is the synod, where he is the internal threat he is referencing. Very strange.

This article on the ride into facism is an interesting read.

Deference to a pope comes readily to Catholics. We are groomed for it. Within legitimate bounds, there is grace in that. But the boundaries are not totalizing. Outside of them, obeisance falls prey to forces that do not serve the church. Neither do they lend succor to a civilization painfully wrought from endemic tyrannies and universal poverty. Far, far from it.

There comes a moment when deference glides into collusion. At that point, we all become Good Germans. Fascist-friendly. Trust in respected authority curdles into a thing entirely different—a willed blindness to something dark in the particular voice commanding assent. Decent and dependable, we incline toward the beckoning circle of connivance.

The Che Guevara thing was an eye-opener for me. I knew the show was bordering socialism and communism but I secretly hoped he would prove us all wrong.

Instead of considering (and losing on) a ban on federal funding for Planned Parenthood (see www.lifesitenews.com/news/senate-defeats-measure-defunding-planned-parenthood ), the Republican-controlled Senate would have done better considering a ban on the death penalty.

An erroneous idea that has gained considerable ground among Catholic circles since Francis showed up is that the pope is hand-picked by the Holy Spirit. (Poor Holy Spirit! Gets blamed for everything these days.) Every time I have read that on the internet, I have made sure to correct that notion.

This is the reason why the majority of the Catholics will do whatever Francis says.

I suppose they won't be faulted for it either, since many of them back up their blind obedience with the promise Our Lord made about the Church. I can't see Our Lord holding too much trust in what He said against them.

The pope has seriously disappointed those who believe the Roman Catholic Church preserves and teaches the Truth. The Truth is Christ risen and unity with Him. It is not a debate about the minimum wage or air conditioning.

Pope Francis is popular on the world stage, and the crowds love him. But if he fails in his basic duties as the pope, if his concern is more for secular than sacred, if he aids the political agenda of the atheistic left, he is a false prophet leading his flock to a dangerous place, where there is more central planning and less personal liberty.

I am NO to the trojan horse of global environmentalism - now UN is trying to set up international police to go anywhere to make sure AE EVERYONE pays the full taxes and that includes the new taxes to pay for the 3 Trillion dollar per year plan that is a "sustainable" (forever) tax. Businesses and foundations will all be "contributors" so all prices will rise and less money for local projects.

Tha horror is just one example of the global facist state being set up right now with the Pope's encouragement.
I choose The Kingdom of God and I oppose the New World Fascist Order!
The Pope should not mix with the globalists - he should set up a Christian alternative based on Jesus.
God will destroy the godless new world order - implied by 3rd secret Fatima.
