The Vatican Goes to Bat for Biden

FrancisChurch provides him with cover.

In 2016, the Vatican was pulling for Hillary Clinton. Just days before the presidential election, Pope Francis renewed his criticism of politicians who speak about erecting “walls.” This led Slate and other publications to run such headlines as “It Sure Sounds Like Pope Francis Doesn’t Think Americans Should Vote for Trump.” Several Francis-friendly prelates ran interference for Hillary Clinton. San Jose’s bishop, Patrick McGrath, wrote a letter to his flock in which he said that Donald Trump’s complaint of a rigged system “borders on the seditious.” According to the Italian press, many of Pope Francis’s aides viewed Trump’s victory as a “bitter defeat.”

In 2020, the Vatican is once again running interference for a pro-abortion Democrat. Joe Biden fashions himself as a Pope Francis Catholic. He brags about his cozy relationship with Pope Francis. In 2016, the Vatican invited Joe Biden to a conference about medicine, a scandalous invite given that Biden supports making scientific use of aborted embryos. Biden gushed about the anti-capitalism of Pope Francis: “We need to create a culture which, as Pope Francis reminds us, cannot just be based on the worship of money. We cannot accept a nation in which billionaires compete as to size of their super-yachts.”

So it is no surprise that such Vatican officials as Archbishop Vincenzo Paglia are helping Biden by downplaying his abortion stance. Last week Paglia served up some mush about the dangers of abortion politics, according to Crux: “As US presidential elections heat up ...

Serve God or serve man it’s clear what choice the catholic hierarchy picked.

If the Catholic church wants to be an alternative to the Episcopalians or the Unitarians, they gotta lose this evil pope.

They better watch it. This could easily do more to distance Catholics from the Vatican than bring them closer to Biden. (Not being Catholic that’s my amateur analysis)

Francisco the Fraud is a heretic, seeking to discard Christ’s Word with his own. Pro-abort (remember kids, silence is complicity). Pro Commie. Pro Socialism. Pro One World Order. Pro Woke. This is the Devil’s wish list as his own agenda.

He forsakes Heaven for an Earthly paradise.

He’s a damned fool.

with the commie-style pope, this is not surprising.. just super-tragic.

millions of innocent babies have been murdered by Biden’s policies

I guess we may as well stop holding our breaths waiting for his bishop or priest to at least reprove him or deny him holy communion

there are so many clerics in the RCC (and in several other Christian and Jewish denominations) today that are anti-Biblical, amoral or anti-moral, antilife even. Wolves in sheeps’ clothes. So Tragic!

I fear that won't stop him from saying and doing things like this. It would just hurt the local parishes.
