The election of Jorge Bergoglio was the fruit of secret meetings that cardinals and bishops, organized by Carlo Maria Martini, held for years at St. Gall in Switzerland. This is what is claimed by Jürgen Mettepenningen and Karim Schelkens, the authors of a just published biography of the Belgian Cardinal Godfried Danneels, who refer to the group of cardinals and bishops as the “Mafia-club”.
Danneels, according to the authors, had worked for years in preparation for the election of Pope Francis, which happened in 2013. He himself, however, in a video recorded during the presentation of the book admits that he had taken part in a secret club of cardinals that were in opposition to Joseph Ratzinger. While laughing he calls it “a Mafia club whose name was St. Gall”.
The group wanted a drastic reform of the Church, much more modern and up to date, with Jorge Bergoglio as Pope Francis at the head. And this is just as things turned out. In addition to Danneels and Martini, among the others who made up the group according to the book were the Dutch bishop Adriaan Van Luyn, the German cardinals Walter Kasper and Karl Lehman, the Italian cardinal AchilleSilvestrini and the English cardinal Basil Hume. [Rorate note: from the earliest days of the group, later replaced after his death.]
The Belgian newspaper “Le Vif” wrote: “On March 13, 2013, an old acquaintance was at the side of the new Pope [at the St. Peter's Basilica loggia], Francis: Godfried Danneels. Officially he stood there in his role as the dean of the cardinal-priests, but actually he had operated for years in secret as the king-maker.”Danneels has been invited again by Pope Francis to attend the Synod on the Family that will take place in October in Rome. But he has been severely criticized. He tried to dissuade a victim of sexual abuse from accusing the man who abused him, a bishop, who was the uncle of the victim, and because of this, at the time of the Conclave in 2013 there were those in Belgium who asked that he not be allowed to elect the new Pope.
Ping
Too much homosexuality, pederasty, and lesbianism among Roman Catholic priests and nuns. I’m a traditional Anglican escaped from the Stalinist Episcopal Church, but would not become a RC. Sorry/not sorry to RC FReepers.
I thought groups that “lobbied” were bad?
Well Vatican, now what is your plan with your ‘new modern Church’?
This anti-Christ Jesuit Marxist abomination needs to be removed immediately. Benedict should be reinstated.
Now we know why the Sordid Synod (convened to attack the family) has been deliberately packed by Francis with this group of nasty little anti-Christ, pro-Martini prelates.

“...Sandro Magister’s Chiesa identified Francis as the “Martini Pope,” and a “Dream Come Through” for the progressive wing in the post-Conciliar Church.[10]
Along the same lines, Hans Küng had nothing but grand applause for Pope Francis’ latest document saying, “In his Apostolic Exhortation Evangelii Gaudium, Pope Francis ... speaks out clearly in favor of church reform ‘at all levels’. He specifically advocates structural reforms – namely, decentralization towards local dioceses and communities, reform of the papal office, upgrading the laity and against excessive clericalism, in favor of a more effective presence of women in the Church, above all in the decision-making bodies. And he comes out equally clearly in favor of ecumenism and inter-religious dialogue, especially with Judaism and Islam.” [11]
All of these radical causes, and more, were championed by Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini.
When we regard a number of Pope Francis’ words and actions, we cannot help but notice him following the trajectory of Cardinal Martini. It is no small matter that in the 2005 Conclave that elected Ratzinger to the papacy, Cardinal Bergolgio was not only the leading contender, but “the votes of Martini’s supporters, along with others, converged at the time precisely on Bergoglio. Eight years later, in March of 2013, it was again the ‘martiniani’ who backed the election of Bergoglio as pope. This time with success”.[12]
Bergoglio has long been regarded as the “Martini candidate”, who would become the “Martini Pope”. Thus National Catholic Reporter Editor Thomas C. Fox published the celebratory headline, “Cardinal Martini’s Dream: the Church of Francis”.[13]...”

bkmk
Do the keys on your keyboard stick?
With that broad brush you can paint several vocations and professions with the same epithet. The Church is not just a hotel for saints but a hospital for sinners as well.
Thanks for the link. I agree that Bergoglio is a weak pope and probably a Mason. Ratzinger should return and Bergoglio and his assistants should be removed. The problem started with Paul VI who in the early 1970’s introduced Masonic influences now blossoming. The Lord needs to clean house.
Amen. At this point, Pope JP’s mummified irma would run laps around this turd.
No you wouldn’t
Where do you get this stuff?
Have you read any of Pope Paul VI’s writings against Freemasonry?
How large was your survey group? How many are personally known to you?
Thank you for your inquiry. I started praying to Paul VI every morning along with St. Jude and St. Paul and discovered a book Luigi Villa who knew all the major players around Paul VI personally. Very sad story.
The book is $100 on Amazon and can be found in .pdf in several places such as:
http://www.huttongibson.com/PDFs/Paul-VI-Beatified-Book.pdf
Please pray before reading, since Villa describes the sad and dark forces that were welcomed into the Church by Paul VI. Thankfully, JP II expelled 90%. We are still dealing with the 10% from Paul VI.
