Basically the Chinese Communist Party *is* the Catholic Church in China, thanks to the same despicable Pope who’s just suppressed out ancient liturgy. And some people still call this wretched man the ‘Holy Father’. https://t.co/XC2IyPterw

"Muh Vatican I"

Today, in proximity to the Feast of Saints Peter and Paul, I ask you to pray for the Pope. Pray in a special way: the Pope needs your prayers!

— Pope Francis (@Pontifex) June 27, 2021

I consider myself to understand better than most the financial scandals plaguing the Vatican in recent years.

I still give to Peter’s Pence.

The mission of the Holy Father, the work of the Curia, and the pope’s charitable priorities all have legitimate claims to my support.

Cardinal Zen Being Candid

Speaking with @EpochTimes, @CardJosephZen stated, “I do not know him [Bishop elect, Fr. Chow] very well, but at least the Vatican did not choose the one blessed by Beijing—Fr. Peter Choy Wai-man. For this alone, it is already a good thing.”#HongKong https://t.co/MYCnU8RBmf

An Invocation of Churchian Support for Statism

and the SJW gospel.

Jesuit Father Leo O'Donovan: "Be with us, Holy Mystery of Love, as we dream together. Help us under our new President to reconcile the people of our land, restore our dream, and invest it with peace and justice and the joy that is the overflow of love."https://t.co/PKtuYRdWko

— James Martin, SJ (@JamesMartinSJ) January 20, 2021

At best this is just more naive religious civic nationalism from Gomez. But the effect is the same: acquiescence to statism and state-coerced unity.

Friends, I entrust you to the tender heart of the Blessed Mother, the mother of Christ and the patroness of this exceptional nation. May she guide us in the ways of peace, and obtain for us wisdom and the grace of a true patriotism and love of country. https://t.co/rY8ALKQmGF
