H.H. Pope Benedict XVI wrote his own Encyclicals. Although Francis is not intellectually gifted to write any kind of Encyclical; he will use as ghost writers several of the deranged environmentalists that push the hoax of the human responsibility for climate changes.

During the Second Vatican Council, Pope Paul VI, exasperated with the chaos prevailing, said that “it seems that the smoke from hell have entered through the windows of the Vatican.” Under Francis a five alarm fire is destroying the Vatican and the Church.

Actually, the “smoke of Satan” comment was in 1972, not during the Council.

The story goes that as John XXIII lay dying, he said to Cardinal Heenan, “Stop the Council! Stop the Council!”

The Party Line from the time of Puis X through the fifties was that Modernism had been vanquished. You’ll find that stated in popular histories of the Church. It just went underground, and came roaring back at the Council.
