When is the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter (FSSP) going to wake up and realize that Traditionis Custodes was never about the Mass and always, from day one, about control and destruction of the Church?
As the cheers and sighs of relief spread across the internet and social media upon hearing word that Bergoglio was not going to shut down the FSSP’s ability to celebrate the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) yet, those who still keep one foot wedged in reality shuddered to think about the long-term implications of all of this.
Let me state up front: this post is not intended to insult or offend any individual FSSP priest or those who attend FSSP parishes. Although I primarily attend SSPX Masses now, I have also attended an FSSP parish for the last three years and have seen nothing but orthodoxy and adherence to tradition in my personal experience there. This post pertains to the FSSP leadership and the organization overall.
How does a Modernist get control? They mislead, play mind games and force you to pinch the incense in the name of a false idol.
Traditionis Custodes is Married to the Synod on Synodality
I have addressed the lies and mind games Modernists use to gain and keep control over other people and institutions, so I won’t repeat that here. I will focus on the false idol Bergoglio is going to coerce the FSSP to accept. In this case, the false idol is the Second Vatican Council (Vatican II) and even worse: the Synod on Synodality.
While the FSSP may think they are gaining permission to say the TLM (think about the absurdity of that statement), what Bergoglio knows is happening is that they are implicitly, if not explicitly, agreeing to false ecumenism, heretical notions of religious liberty, lay control of the Church, women in liturgical roles and approval of homosexuality. Bergoglio doesn’t even really care about these things so much as they impact his effort to tear down and rebuild (remember Build Back Better) the Catholic Church into a new Antichurch that serves the secular humanist global elite.
Red Pill Moment here folks: Bergoglio doesn’t really care about the Mass. He doesn’t care if you use Latin, follow the old prayers, new prayers, act like it’s just a communal meal or even hold on to those rigid notions of Sacrifice. Guitars at Mass? Fine. Gregorian Chant at Mass? Okay, so what? Women deacons or women wearing chapel veils—doesn’t matter.
What he cares about is control and changing the Church to conform to the tenets of the Great Reset and the New World Order. The same ideology that worships at the shrine of Pachamama, COVIDism and communism. It’s a secular political thing, not a spirtual thing. Get it, yet?
Bergoglio is using the deeply engrained desire to celebrate the TLM as leverage to secure control over that one element of the Church he doesn’t have complete control over yet—the traditional Catholic movement—which typically also objects to Pachamama, COVIDism and communism.
That’s why every waking moment he has to condemn holding on to things of the past and scrupulous rigidity. Tradition itself is an obstacle to achieving complete transformation of the Church into the Antichurch (as if that was possible). And what does traditionalism value and hold on to that Bergoglio could take away (since he can’t take away faith)? The TLM of course!
Politics is all about leverage and control. Using what power you have to control other people. Bergoglio knows he is not going to convince traditionalists to play guitars at Mass and have women lay lectors. What he is hoping to do is convince traditionalists that they are nothing better than schismatic protestants because they refuse to be obedient to HIM and the post-Vatican II (actually New World Order) agenda. And THAT is the stick he has chosen to use to gain control over those who would never go along with this demonic agenda.
[If you are uncomfortable with me using demonic agenda language in connection with “Pope Francis” just recall the Pachamama demon worship debacle before you criticize too much.]
While no one knows exactly what was said at that meeting, you can read between the lines a bit based on the statements that have been made. For example, in the FSSP press release it states:
the Pope expressed that he was very impressed by the approach taken by its founders, their desire to remain faithful to the Roman Pontiff and their trust in the Church. He said that this gesture should be “preserved, protected and encouraged”.
What was the approach taken by it’s founders? The approach was to disavow Archbishop Marcel LeFebvre (and the SSPX) and swear their allegiance, not just to the Vicar of Christ, but to Vatican II. And this is absolutely key to understanding what is happening to the FSSP today. It’s all about Vatican II and the upcoming Synod on Synodality where the Modernists intend to drive the dagger into whatever remnant of the real Catholic Church remains after the Vatican II bomb.
This Is Political — Not Pastoral
I really dislike being this cynical. But my attitude comes from several years of being in the political trenches of American politics, especially within the Republican Party apparatus and dealing with narcissistic, power-hungry politicians that lack core values and principles.
There always seems to be a naïve victim that refuses to acknowledge the reality of the evil commanding their every move. So let me do the FSSP a favor and break this realty down for them, which is quite obvious when you understand how Modernists and soulless politicians operate.
The timing of Traditionis Custodes was not a coincidence. It occurred right before the Synod on Synodality was announced. This “synod” is going to operate as a de facto Third Vatican Council where the Modernist liberals within the Antichurch issue documents that they believe will clearly “make magisterial” what the Vatican II documents only implied ambiguously and then add a lot more German heresy for good measure.
The synod is going to effectively declare traditional Catholicism schismatic while proclaiming the Antichurch the “real” Catholic Church. Because the Modernist Antichurch doesn’t believe in hierarchy or male-dominated leadership (i.e. fatherhood), they are going to claim the synod was a result of active participation among the lay faithful who all “demanded” these reforms.
And now, by securing the FSSP’s commitment to Bergoglio personally and Vatican II in exchange for “permission” to celebrate the TLM, he can claim with a straight face that the traditionalists are on board with this new reformed “Church.”
In other words, the FSSP is being used as a political pawn in anticipation of the upcoming Synod on Synodality that will codify and declare the end of the Roman Catholic Church and the advent of the “new” Catholic Church with different dogmas, beliefs and liturgies that also happens to correspondence with the globalist Great Reset political ideology. In Bergoglio’s mind, the traditional movement will have no legal or moral leg to stand on to object because the FSSP will have already committed itself to this process and will be too afraid to lose the TLM if they speak out.
You think the FSSP would never agree to such an absurd thing and that I am really stretching this argument? Read Bergoglio’s words highlighted above carefully and then remember where the FSSP and other traditional communities came from. In a Part 2, I will dive more deeply into this approach of the Ecclesia Dei communities that impresses Bergoglio so much and why my thesis is not nearly absurd as you may think.
