Hi ,<br />
<br />
Just to let you know in case you have not already heard that the Lepanto Institute is to publish on their site at 7 am Pacific time (California) or 3pm here a document written by Fernandez years ago which apparently is so horrific and of such an explicit sexual nature that it will lead to his almost immediate resignation and very possibly that of his boss...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I want to make it quite clear that the Vatican itself has fallen. As Far as I can tell this is as a result of some kind of Masonic/ Satanic conspiracy during the course of the last Papal Election. Many prophecies have indicated that this might in fact occurred and this seems indeed to have been the case.<br />
<br />
We have a seeming Pope who is not in fact a Pope because he is not in fact a Catholic.  Nor indeed are most of the Cardinals who organised this and the fellow travellers who he has promoted...<br />

if I want to discern any kind of religious life: am I better off ticking those group off and sticking with seeking out stablished groups?]]></content:encoded>

Even worse suggesting that Our Lady supports Synodality and distorting her messages to do so.<br />

Truly awful , sickening.<br />

Which is just shorthand for saying that he does not believe it exists, although he does not dare come right out and say so. Yet another in a long line of heresies by this particular gentleman.<br />
<br />
In saying this he contradicts Scripture and the Teachings of the Church for the last 2,000 years.<br />

This is the second time he uttered this...<br />
