Is she living there? Has she been conducting Amazonian pagan rituals there all this time? Is she helping write the final document that Francis is going to issue with his decisions on what direction the Church is going to go in? Or was she flown in just for this?
She has no business being anywhere near there.
No wonder Soros, Obama, Clinton and Podesta love this Pope...

When is Francis going to start talking about YHWH’s suppressed Wife? or His homosexual co-Deity? Women and POIQFAGs need to be represented in the Godhead, too.
I am not happy with Baal being crowbarred into the Church.
Well, making inroads, anyway. I went to an Orthodox liturgy Sunday. I would attend a Byzantine Rite church if there were one within fifty miles or so. The Greek Catholics generally remain pretty much unaffected by the gyrations of the Modernist Popes.
Cardinals cross arms over chest to venerate Mother Earth
I'm glad, as a Protestant, I'm not obligated to try to defend the Pope and all these goings on.
Earth mother goddesses, so normal, clean, healthy. So spiritual. < /sarc>
Anyway, this pic is creepy.
Of course the gesture was purely pagan here, among these Western Rite Roman Catholics. And they were not receiving Holy Communion at all, when they were making the gesture.
However, it means something quite different among the Orthodox!!!! And I find the misuse of the gesture for pagan worship QUITE annoying!!!!
Oh yes I did read the article!!! See my post #30!!!!
When we Orthodox approached the chalice on Christmas Day, we all folded our arms in cruciform fashion. And we shall do it again on Sunday—all with no thought of “pachamama”!! PHOOEY!!!!
Do y’all get on your knees with arms folded?
In the Orthodox Church the Eucharist is ALWAYS received standing because we are receiving Christ Who is Risen.
At weekday Divine Liturgies (other than the 40 days from Pascha [Easter] to Ascension we kneel at the epiclesis, that is, the Priest’s prayer asking that the Holy Spirit would make the bread the Body of our Lord and God and Savior Jesus Christ, and that He would likewise bless and hallow that which is within the Chalice.
During Great Lent we do full prostrations on the floor—whether carpeted or not—during the Prayer of St. Ephraim the Syrian; as we approach the Cross for veneration; as we approach the Good Friday bier; and at many other times.
That’s y’all’s perogotive, I guess.
I choose to kneel, in submission, before my Lord God with hands folded.
Way back in the 4th century most of the bishops followed Arius. That heresy was defeated in a council. Back in the 70s we had some clown masses and such. The Church will survive bad popes and bishops because it is the Bride of Christ.
If you think of the Catholic church as one big vessel of corruption for centuries, it becomes easier to understand.
