The Excommunication of a Bishop

It appears #FakePope #Francis has ordered the excommunication of Msgr. Carlo Maria Viganò, one of the few Catholic prelates to openly stand against the #FakePope’s #satanic rule of the converged #Roman #CatholicChurch:

The Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith has informed me, with a simple email, of the initiation of an #extrajudicial penal trial against me, with the accusation of having committed the #crime of #schism and charging me of having denied the #legitimacy of “Pope Francis” of having #broken #communion “with Him” and of having #rejected the #SecondVaticanCouncil. I have been summoned to the Palace of the Holy Office on June 20, in person or represented by a canon lawyer. I assume that the sentence has already been prepared, given that it is an extrajudicial process.

I regard the accusations against me as an #honor. I believe that the very wording of the charges confirms the theses that I have repeatedly defended in my various addresses. It is no coincidence that the accusation against me concerns the questioning of the legitimacy of #JorgeMarioBergoglio and the rejection of #Vatican-II: the Council represents the ideological, theological, moral, and liturgical cancer of which the Bergoglian “synodal church” is the necessary metastasis.

It is necessary for the #Episcopate, the #Clergy and the People of God to seriously ask themselves whether it is consistent with the profession of the #Catholic #Faith to passively witness the systematic destruction of the #Church by its leaders, just as other subversives are destroying civil society… In the face of the Dicastery’s accusations, I claim, as Successor of the Apostles, to be in full communion with the Roman Catholic Apostolic Church, with the Magisterium of the Roman Pontiffs, and with the uninterrupted doctrinal, moral, and liturgical Tradition which they have faithfully preserved.

I repudiate the neomodernist errors inherent in the Second Vatican Council and in the so-called “post-conciliar magisterium,” in particular in matters of collegiality, ecumenism, religious freedom, the secularity of the State, and the liturgy.

I repudiate, reject, and condemn the scandals, errors, and heresies of Jorge Mario Bergoglio, who manifests an absolutely tyrannical management of power, exercised against the purpose that legitimizes Authority in the Church: an authority that is vicarious of that of #Christ, and as such must obey Him alone. This separation of the #Papacy from its legitimizing principle, which is Christ the High Priest, transforms the ministerium into a self-referential tyranny.

No Catholic worthy of the name can be in communion with this “Bergoglian church,” because it acts in clear discontinuity and rupture with all the Popes of history and with the Church of Christ.

This makes me wish I was a #RomanCatholic so I could be officially #excommunicated from the #synagogue of #Satan that presently occupies the #Vatican. I absolutely deny the legitimacy of “Pope Francis” and I definitely deny the Second Vatican Council.

#Catholic Relief Services, the leading U.S. Catholic relief organization, has persuaded the U.S. #Congress to officially submit the GPS coordinates of four Catholic sites (churches and monasteries) in #Gaza that should not be attacked.

Israel confirmed receipt of the list, but two of the sites were still attacked by the #IDF, a church and a monastery that were shelled by IDF tanks and shelled by IDF snipers who killed a mother and her daughter who were in the #Church in hiding (an act the #Pope later described as "terrorism").

The Missionaries of Charity is a #Catholic religious congregation founded in Calcutta on October 7, 1950, by Mother Teresa, an Albanian nun who had previously been a member of the Sisters of Loreto congregation. This congregation, awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979, has become synonymous with the commitment to the most destitute and marginalized in society. With approximately five thousand nuns spread across one hundred and thirty-two countries, the Missionaries of Charity are currently under the leadership of Sister Mary Prema as their Superior General. #religious #charity https://activite-paranormale.net/event/read/214/mother-teresa-founded-the-missionaries-of-charity

Observers report that today, October 9, 2023, during the Air Raids by the IDF, #Israel has reportedly bombed the #Greek #Orthodox Church of Saint Porphyrius in #Gaza, which was built at 425 AD (Anno Domini) and then consecrated by the #Catholic #Crusaders in 1150

According to such reports, it has been almost fully destroyed. Saint Porphyrius was the largest church in Gaza.

If true, the Third Oldest Christian Temple in all world was just wiped off the map

Catholic clergy in #Portugal have abused nearly 5,000 children since 1950, an independent commission said on Monday after hearing hundreds of victims' accounts.

📑 Thousands of reports of #paedophilia within the #CatholicChurch have surfaced around the world and #PopeFrancis is under pressure to tackle the scandal.

✝ The Portuguese inquiry, commissioned by the #Church in the staunchly #Catholic country, published its findings after hearing from more than 500 victims last year.

🗨️ "The report published today expresses a hard and tragic reality. We however believe that change is under way," said the head of the Portuguese Episcopal Conference, Bishop Jose Ornelas.

Christian #church|es are perceived as institutions capable to facilitate dialogue where other actors fail. However, it is a paradigm of religions in violent conflicts that they can be only part of a peaceful solution if they are not part of the problem.
There has been written a lot about the role of the #Orthodox churches in the war-torn region, which are deeply entangled with the conflict and the #ideology behind this #war.
This is one reason why international observers paid a lot of hope and trust in the activities of the #Vatican and Pope Francis. Both the social ethics of the Roman #Catholic Church and the spirituality of Pope Francis as well as the transnational and block-free, neutral, diplomatic position of the Vatican could have certainly provided a fundament for negotiations.

Nothing angers me more than seeing the traditional way of #indigenous people and realizing what the settlers were trying to take away from us all. Their way of life benefitted all life. Its respect for all living beings. I gained nothing of value from my western schooling and "culture". Don't even get me started on #Catholic school.

Vietnam communists accept religions' olive branch as COVID rages

Catholics and Buddhists mobilize health workers to help Ho Chi Minh City cope

Vietnam is now counting on support from religious groups to help Ho Chi Minh City through its worsening COVID-19 outbreak, a sign of desperation from the Communist Party of Vietnam-led government that rarely hobnobs with the old foe of Marxism.

More than 1,000 Catholic nuns and priests as well as Buddhist monks with medical skills have taken part in a government program to combat the pandemic as the death toll rises sharply in the country’s largest city.

On Monday more than 7,000 new cases were recorded across the nation, with 4,264 of them in Ho Chi Minh City, which is also the country’s main economic engine.

Historically, communism and religion — “the opiate of the masses,” according to Karl Marx — have been at odds. But in Vietnam, the party and religious groups have long maintained delicate relations, with some sects having flocks comparable in size to the party’s membership.

The Church in Vietnam has an estimated 7 million Catholics, including 30,000 priests, clergymen and nuns. The Communist party has over 5 million members, and there are 5 million Buddhists in Vietnam.

The Catholic Churches participating in the program to rescue Ho Chi Minh City is led by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Saigon, with around 1 million believers. Saigon is the old name of Ho Chi Minh City, a Catholic stronghold in Vietnam.

“The participation of religious organizations would be a source of timely support,” said To Thi Bich Chau, chairwoman of Vietnamese Fatherland Front Committee of Ho Chi Minh City, a local group under the communist party. The statement, which came on July 22, was a rare display of party gratitude to the country’s religious institutions.

She urged all classes in the city, religious organizations, clergymen, monks and followers of all religions to register to serve in hospitals and in isolated areas.

“Volunteers deserve to be respected, and citizens always put their trust in religious volunteers,” Chau said at an event to welcome religious volunteers to the front lines.

The religious support also has a spiritual aspect as the monks, nuns and priests help patients to cope and regain their confidence, according to state-owned media.

Chau said the religious volunteers’ work will be replicated and promoted to a great extent as the country mobilizes its spiritual and material strength to help Ho Chi Minh City win its fight against the mutating virus.
