During the Amazon Synod in November 2019, Francis paraded Pachamama, the Andean fertility goddess in an idolatrous ceremony in the Vatican Gardens and in St. Peter’s Basilica. The jaw-dropping scandal reverberated throughout the Christian world as the head of the Catholic Church clearly bowed down and worshipped a pagan fertility idol in the hallowed Vatican grounds.
This jarring shock awakened the Catholic world to Jorge Bergoglio. Who is this man who blatantly violated the First and Greatest Commandment: You shall have no other gods before me?
The shameful display of syncretism permanently delegitimised and disfigured his 12-year regime. No explanation or excuse could mitigate this monstrous mockery of Christianity—it was nothing short of apostasy of the first order.
The lesson spoke volumes: Bergoglio elevated paganism, betrayed Catholicism, and mocked God and the Blessed Mother. From that moment on, he was the Pachamama Pope, reigning amid ridicule, suspicion and mockery, forever an indelible asterisk in the annals of Catholic patrimony.
Now, to the horror of Catholics, we learn that the Robert Prevost, the successor to Francis displayed the same allegiance and reverence to pagan idols some 30 years before the Francis scandal. As an Augustinian missionary in Peru, Prevost seemingly did not follow Jesus’ Great Commission (Matthew 28:16-20) to His disciples:
“Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.”
As Catholic missionaries, Prevost and the Augustinians are commanded by Jesus to convert the pagans to Christianity. Instead, they participated and submitted to the pagan rituals, giving them legitimacy, longevity and durability. These idolatrous rituals paid homage to the many gods of the Andean people by offering human and animal sacrifices to appease the angry gods.
