Venezuelan Bishops Pray to Virgin Mary to Free the Country from the ‘Claws of Communism’
Breitbart ^ | 2 Aug 2017 | Thomas D. Williams, Ph.D.

The Venezuelan Episcopal Conference (CEV) has publicly invoked the intercession of the Virgin Mary to free the nation “from the claws of communism,” in a clear reference to the regime of President Nicolás Maduro.

“Blessed Virgin, Mother of Coromoto, heavenly Patron of Venezuela, free our country from the claws of communism and socialism,” the CEV posted on Twitter this Sunday, complete with an image of Santa Maria and a Venezuelan flag.

Pope Francis is a strong supporter of the corrupt and brutal Venezuelan government. Pope Francis strongly supports Maduro. Pope Francis strongly supported Hugo Chavez.

It seems as if Pope Francis derives pleasure from the starvation of children and the human suffering brought about by the socialist government of Venezuela.

Pope Francis is an evil man. He is not a Catholic. He is not a man of God.

You should have made this a Catholic Caucus.

My question is, have they consecrated Venezuela to her Immaculate Heart. They should do that immediately if they haven’t.

They should pray for one well placed cruise missile into one well guarded palacial villa high above Caracas that overlooks a populace sifting through piles of garbage for something to eat.

Karl Marx thought religion was for idiots.

He was right.

In 2017 the Pope says his Catholicism is what leads him to Communism. :)

“Blessed Virgin, Mother of Coromoto, heavenly Patron of Venezuela, free our country"

Was Coromoto Jesus's brother or something?

What a bunch of tools, them Venezuelans.

Pope Francis is wrong about that.

The march towards communism begins with democracy, and the example of Venezuela will surely be repeated here in the USA unless steps are taken to disenfranchise the parasite class.

Will Trump be the beginning of the turning of the tide or a footnote?

Even Hitler was a able to make a rational case for the danger of democracy, universal suffrage, and its ultimate degeneration into Bolshevism.

“...democracy will in practice lead to the destruction of a people’s true values. And this also serves to explain how it is that people with a great past from the time when they surrender themselves to the unlimited, democratic rule of the masses slowly lose their former position; for the outstanding achievements of individuals...are now rendered practically ineffective through the oppression of mere numbers.”

“Democracy is the canal through which bolshevism lets its poisons flow into the separate countries and lets work there long enough for these infections to lead to a crippling of intelligence and of the force of resistance.”

Besides, Pope Francis’ errors are not due to the Catholic Faith. They are all attributable, not to authentic Catholicism, but to his abandonment thereof.

If you want to learn something, read about Our Lady of Coromoto, the Patroness of Venezuela.

Well, other than the fact that he didn't rise to his position on his own, you might be right.

Frankie is probably a little annoyed right now. The question is, what will he do? He can’t excommunicate the entire VZ bishops conference. But he’ll get at them, one way or another. He’s an evil, vicious little leftist.

Please don’t display your ignorance so blatantly - “of” relates to a location, in this case, Coromato. And if you hate the Church so much, why do you appear on every thread relating to it?

This can’t be right. I’ve had many FReepers tell me quite recently that nobody would worship the Virgin Mother, much less supplicate her deific deliverance.

Not sure what you’re referring to: the Sankt-Gallen group? (Or should I call them ‘conspirators’?) The 2013 conclave that elected him?
