The Greatest Show 30,000 Feet Above Earth®, otherwise known as the Bergoglian Circus, is in the news once again.
Yesterday, aboard the papal airplane en route to the Chilean port city of Iquique, to the utter delight of Heathens and Humanists, and Heretics of all Ages ®, the ringleader of Modernist Rome performed a never-before-seen stunt.
Billed by publicists in the Vatican as a marriage ceremony, this latest act of daring is perhaps the greatest feat of illusion Bergolgio has performed since 2013 when first he managed to convince unsuspecting Catholics the world over that he is the Successor of St. Peter; thus providing proof positive that a sucker is indeed born every minute.
On an even more serious note
What Jorge did yesterday was exactly what Jorge has been doing from the very the moment he adopted the stage name Francis; that is, mock the Holy Catholic faith the same that he obviously (more so with every passing day) simply does not hold.
It was also very much in keeping with the program set forth in Amoris Laetitia; a text that provides written instructions for those who wish to join him in trivializing the Sacraments; in particular, Confession, Holy Matrimony, and Holy Communion.
That said, while it may not be apparent at first glance, one may rightly understand that yesterdays dog-n-pony show like the Council itself and pretty much every destructive program that has followed was inspired by ecumenism.
Ecumenism?
Yes, ecumenism. Follow me here
As far as authentic Catholic sacramental theology is concerned, the three Sacraments of Confession, Holy Matrimony, and Holy Communion are among the greatest stumbling blocks of the seven to our so-called separated brethren, the heretics.
[NOTE: There is, however, one conspicuously missing from that list; Holy Orders. As such, one can be absolutely certain that the priesthood is squarely in the Bergoglian crosshairs at this very moment, and the reason is the same, ecumenism (and hatred for the Catholic faith then theres that.)]
The Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy of Vatican II pulled no punches in its opening paragraph:
This sacred Council has several aims in view to foster whatever can promote union among all who believe in Christ
In other words, the pressing question before the Council was, What can we do to make the heretics accept us?
Whatever doubt may have existed on this note when first these words were presented to the Council Fathers has surely been removed by now, thanks in no small measure to the so-called liturgical reform that followed as a direct result.
In other words, today, it is perfectly clear to all with eyes to see that placating the concerns of the heretics was, and remains, the driving impetus for all things conciliar and post-conciliar.
Yesterdays stunt was no different; it was just one more way of showing the protestants, and indeed the world, that the new Catholic Church (an imposter if ever there was one) has loosened up; in this case, that it no longer has such a rigid view of marriage (you know, like the one Christ preached).
If ever one needed additional proof that the Devil is orchestrating these events, the fact that the Vaticans mouthpieces are lying about yesterdays events should do the trick.
Greg Burke, the Unholy Sees head spin master, insisted that the in-flight marriage ceremony was not the Popes idea; it was their idea, but the Pope was happy to do it.
Speaking with reporters aboard Heretic One, the happy husband gave a different account, saying, He [Francis] thought of it I dont know if someone had said something to him.
The Associated Press reported that the blushing bride was stunned and nearly speechless during the remaining hour on the flight.
Does anyone really believe that this couple of flight attendants showed up for work yesterday with a plan to ask Jorge to marry them, and this even though they knew full well that their boss, the owner of the airline, would also be on board?
No one with even an once of common sense is buying that story.
According to the couple, Francis said:
Marriage is the sacrament that the world is lacking. Lets hope that what you have done will be an inspiration to other couples. Thats why Im doing this.
In order to make sense of what Francis said, its important not to read too much into this, or better said, we must avoid reading Catholicism into this.
You see, one who views marriage with Catholic eyes might assume that Francis did not consider the couple to be sacramentally married until he graciously volunteered to do whatever in the Hell he actually did yesterday.
Those who have been paying attention know better.
In June of 2016, speaking at the Pastoral Conference for the Diocese of Rome, Francis said that he is sure that cohabitating couples are in a true marriage having the grace of marriage.
This being so, when we read the words attributed to Francis, Thats why Im doing this, we can be sure that he does not mean to say that he is hoping to inspire those in civil marriages to take the steps necessary to make them sacramental.
Now, a word about the happy couple
For the most part, I feel sorry for them. All indications are that they have been exploited as mere props in the ongoing propaganda operation widely misunderstood as the pontificate of Francis.
That said, the story is that they had planned to marry in their parish church, but an earthquake in 2010 damaged it to the point that it had to be postponed.
Bummer, but cmon, folks That was eight years and two kids ago! Look, I dont know a thing about these people and Im not judging them, but I do know this:
If Francis gave even one whit about pastoral accompaniment he might have asked them about their access to a church today. He might have asked about whether or not they have been upholding their Holy Day obligation and about whether or not their children have been Baptized, etc.
Instead, according to the husband, after asking Francis to bless their marriage, out of the blue, The pope asked us if we were married in the Church.
This from the same guy who, remember, declared that cohabitating couples enjoy the grace of marriage?
Something stinks, folks. This thing was a set up from Jump Street; location, Rome.
The couple was unwittingly used, that much seems clear, but the joke isnt just on them but rather on every sucker that still believes, against so much evidence to the contrary, that Jorge Bergoglio is Catholic.
UPDATE
This entire thing is, in fact, a total farce; nothing about it spontaneous, including on the part of the photogenic newlyweds. It is precisely the kind of FAKE NEWS that Signor Humble has been known to decry. (H/T Michael Hichborn at Lepanto Institute.)
As reported by Chilean media nearly one month to the day before yesterdays performance:
Both [of our two newlyweds] were married by the civilian [court] eight years ago and now have two daughters, 3 and 6 years old. However, they planned to get married by the Church, which they did not manage to do: the date of the marriage was set for February 27, 2010 Thus, both hope that in January this delayed plan can finally materialize on the plane and directed by none other than Pope Francis himself. We would love it, its our place, its our second home, its where we feel safe, Podest said.
How pathetic. Face it, folks; the Vatican is overrun by scoundrels and liars. Weve known that since at least the year 2000 when they claimed to published the entire Third Secret of Fatima.
Worse and far more importantly, this Francis person is nothing more than the compliant invention of the Churchs enemies; an Argentinian heretic (more accurately, apostate) posing as a pope, and the preponderance of self-identified Catholics are either too deprived of the faith to recognize it, or too cowardly to admit, much less, address it.

I believe this was a publicity stunt.
No coincidences in events like this.
i wish the fortunate couple well..
having said that, Francis has taken Vegas-style
Drive-Thru-Marriage
.....
to new heights...
And the solution is.....? Swim the Bosphorus?
Pope Francis is there for the foreseeable future, like him or not.
I agree. Seeing how the couple had two young daughters, ages 3 and 6, I doubt they usually work flight shifts together for two reasons: care of the kids and fear of leaving orphans. And how did they know a month prior that they both would be on the same flight as Bergoglio?
Why? They believe in the possibility of divorce and remarriage, the same as Bergoglio does.
QFT.
Those who continue to call him "pope" and thereby the VICAR OF CHRIST only serve to perpetuate the fraud.
Aren't you and ebb doing the very same thing ya'll complain Luther did? You're being your own pope.
No, because Francis = Luther
at least it was Ms. & Mr. and not Ms.& Ms.or Mr. & Mr.or two TG’s
I worried about that as well.
not yet anyway
With a penitential disposition, kneeling respectively on the left and right of the cross, Martin Luther holds the Bible, source and destination of his doctrine, while Philipp Melanchthon, theologian and friend of Martin Luther, one of the main protagonists of the reform, holds in hand the Augsburg Confession (Confessio Augustana), the first official public presentation of the principles of protestantism written by him.
Ya’ll may want to reexamine the whole Luther indolices thing.
