Thanks for this item. I don't have time right now to read it thoroughly and comment on it but it seems that while Ann rightly denounces Bergoglio and does it quite well, she is still pushing the line that Ratzinger (the heretic) is the real pope, she still refuses to listen to, let alone follow, that the Church teaches that the See is vacant due to heresy, and she is trotting out the bogus prophecy concocted by the dissident wing of the Franciscans and NOT by St. Francis in their dispute with Pope Martin V. On the plus side, any quotes by Cardinal Manning are excellent!
It is the same as the garbage from Vennari who denounces anyone for quoting that CATHOLIC TEACHING itself pronounces the Papal See vacant due to heresy, insists instead that Bergoglio is still the pope, BUT he would not permit him to teach the Catechism to his children. GIVE ME A BREAK!!
Also, congratulations, your tag line says it all!
“The apostasy of the city of Rome from the vicar of Christ and its destruction by Antichrist may be thoughts very new to many Catholics, that I think it well to recite the text of theologians of greatest repute. First Malvenda, who writes expressly on the subject, states as the opinion of Ribera, Gaspar Melus, Biegas, Suarrez, Bellarmine and Bosius that Rome shall apostatize from the Faith, drive away the Vicar of Christ and return to its ancient paganism. …Then the Church shall be scattered, driven into the wilderness, and shall be for a time, as it was in the beginning, invisible; hidden in catacombs, in dens, in mountains, in lurking places; for a time it shall be swept, as it were from the face of the earth. Such is the universal testimony of the Fathers of the early Church.”
