Vatican Spokesman on the Drowning of the Pachamama Idols: "These people don't believe in dialogue."

LOL, as they say.

At this morning's Synod press conference in Rome, Paolo Ruffini, the Vatican's Prefect of the Dicastery for Communication, said that the men who removed the "Pachamama" idols from a sanctuary at Santa Maria in Traspontina and then threw them in the river Tiber "didn't believe in dialogue."

He also said the act was an "insult" to indigenous peoples.

If you are just now waking up, here's the background:

A few hours ago, just before dawn, Rome time, at least two men, entered the Santa Maria in Traspontina, removed the four or five "Pachamama" idols from one of the sanctuaries, walked to the river Tiber nearby, and after a few prayers, knocked them into the water.

One of them recorded the act for video. At least two videos have been so far uploaded to YouTube by a "Michael Del Bufalo", an account seemingly set up for this purpose.

Under the second video they posted an explanation for their actions:

This was done for only one reason: 

Our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ, his blessed Mother, and everybody who follows Christ, are being attacked by members of our own Church. We do not accept this! We do not longer stay silent! We start to act NOW! 

Because we love humanity, we can not accept that people of a certain region should not get baptised and therefore are being denied entrance into heaven. 

It is our duty to follow the words of God like our holy Mother did. 

There is no second way of salvation.

Christus vincit, Christus regnat, Christus imperat!

Taylor Marshall quickly posted a longer explanatory video:

Yesterday, there was a minor storm on Twitter when it was discovered that all of Taylor Marshall's tweets had been deleted. "Where is Dr. Marshall?" people asked. Marshall and his friends weren't talking.

Someone quipped, "Pachamama got him."

Not quite.

The mainstream press is now reporting the story. From the Washington Post:

VATICAN CITY — Pope Francis’ controversial meeting on the Amazon has taken a criminal twist after thieves stole indigenous fertility statues from a Vatican-area church and tossed them into the Tiber River. 

Video of the pre-dawn theft from the Santa Maria in Traspontina church was shared and celebrated on conservative social media Monday. The Vatican’s communications czar, Paolo Ruffini, termed it a “stunt” that violated the idea of dialogue.

It won't be long before they blame the "Americans" and Donald Trump.

But even the Post is calling them "indigenous fertility statues."

The Synod did indeed take a criminal turn, but faithful Catholics know that this happened more than a week ago.

And the "dialogue" in the Church has been of the one-way Stalinist variety for seven years.

What next for the Synod? Only God knows.

But for now, in the words of Christina Niles,

Pachamama sleeps with the fishes,

One does not dialogue with demons.

[NorthMountain]

No. One does not. One prays that God may rebuke them.

And one defenestrates their idols when they are blasphemously placed in churches.

[FranklinsTower]

What dialog is there to be had when the 1st commandment is obviously violated?

[LibertyWoman]

Well...I’m not Catholic but it seems to me that this was an encouraging act. Brave people see the danger in false idols/gods and were outraged that they were given space in their Church. It also seems to me that the current pope is nothing short of a heretic. Doesn’t the Church have some sort of mechanism to remove a destructive pope?

[silverleaf]

Lol!

Imagine those priests insulting pagan fertility images..
How dare they!

Thanks for posting this, and mille grazie to the MEN who tossed these idols into the drink.

And by the way, either they are statues made of wood, so who really cares what happens to them (because quite honestly great works of art they are not, even of a primitive style) or they are more than that, in which case they have NO PLACE in a Christian Church. You can’t have it both ways, schmucks. I know that is what you are trying to do, but let me ask: what would Jesus do?

BTW, that blog looks very cool and I will check it out more in the future.

Here's the Christian's "dialog" with Pachamam: Get thee behind me, Satan."

I'm thinking closer to 55 years.

[rdcbn]

Ahh, dialogue.

The old, “ we need to have a conversation about..._____” , gambit.

Well, hmmm, where have we heard that one before?

Seems Pope Francis May just be our metaphysical community organizer in chief.

[Biggirl]

Because you will get 🔥 burned.

"I'm thinking closer to 55 years."

Exactly!!!

[KittyKares]

Ordinarily I would not agree with theft, but in this case, I am happy to see those idols removed from a house of God. They have no place there.

“What dialog is there to be had when the 1st commandment is obviously violated?”

The commandment is only violated in the minds of those who violate it, if they believe the One who resides in the Tabernacle is Christ, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity.

The questions remains: Do they believe Christ the Nazarine was just a man? Or do they believe he is the Son of God, the Second Person of the Trinity?

Maybe Scalfari wasn’t so far off, after all.

Yeshua had dialogue with sinners all the time, to teach them not to celebrate their pagan idols.

That is the full truth that is turned into a lying half truth, all the time, by thos like Francis. The compassionate Yeshua is held up by them as welcoming dialogue with sinners, while they ignore what the dialogue from Yeshua was all about, which was not to celebrate, or “respect” pagan anything.

[Wonder Warthog]

"These people don't believe in dialogue."

Neither does Bergoglio.

“The biggest surprise about the liberation of Santa Maria in Traspontina is that it took so long. The image wouldn’t have lasted five minutes in Poland.”
