All I can say is: “God have mercy on us.”
I find myself agreeing more and more with Bishop Richard Williamson, who often proclaimed that the only remedy for the state of the Church and the world is the Great Chastisement.
The Second Vatican Council was the founding of a new religion — one that, sixty years later, we now know as the Synodal Church. The crowning glory of the modernist usurpers and impostors. And no one did more to put the final touches on this monstrosity than Jorge Bergoglio (stage name Francis) — and now his successor, Robert Prevost.

Once again, from the gilded halls of episcopal bureaucracy came the familiar refrain:
“Follow the path of Francis. Return to the Council. Advance the synodal way.”

Pierre exhorted the bishops to remain faithful to “Francis’ pastoral path” and to the “vision of the Second Vatican Council.” He declared that the Council’s documents are “the map for the journey ahead,” and warned that any divergence from Francis’ “pastoral vision” is a deviation from the true way forward.
