At the end of Synod works this Friday, Francis spoke on the pagan idols that were being displayed at various Synod events and permanently at various altars at the church of Santa Maria in Traspontina, near the Vatican.

Francis first asked "forgiveness" to those who were offended by the action of those who removed the pagan idols from the church and threw them in the Tiber.

He then assured those present that there had not been "idolatry" in the worship and display of the pagan idols, that they had been recovered, and were now under the care of the police. He also said the pagan idols will be brought to Saint Peter's  basilicae for the closing ceremony of the Synod, this Sunday.

From whom did Francis seek forgiveness? Pachamama?

Revelation 18:4 4Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “’Come out of her, my people,’ so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues;

Francis and his cohorts are pushing faster and harder. Their big plan is Church blessing of homosexual acts.

Yeah, I noticed that. I kept trying to think of a good Monty Python joke, but I couldn’t get it to work.

They should have built a bridge out of them.

Frankie needs to be given three .22’s in the head and dumped in the Tiber. There. I said it. And I’m a Catholic.

Probably expressing the thought of many Catholics. He’s destroying the Church.

No. Whatever God permits, He permits to make the Truth shine more brightly (eventually) and to ultimately show that He is in charge and will triumph.

Unfortunately, mysteriously, there’s the real possibility of the loss of souls in the mean time. Pray, sacrifice, and offer up sufferings for the Pope and the Church.

Unfortunately that would make him a Novus Ordo sect martyr.

The idols were obviously guilty...if they were innocent, they would have sunk to the bottom of the river.
