Despite the fact that almost no actual Catholics have ventured to Rome to float through the MercyDoor, there is some FrancisMercy-related news in the secular Italian media.  In the off-year Holy Jubilee, for some reason Roman loafers think it’s time to occupy other people’s homes for free.

Rome (AFP) – Italian police clashed with squatters in central Rome Tuesday during a housing rights demonstration, with protesters saying evictions should be put on hold during Pope Francis’s “Year of Mercy”.

Uniformed and plain-clothes officers scuffled with members of RAM, the acronym of the Metropolitan Housing Resistance group which organised the protest, and its spokesman said nine people had been detained.

Demonstrators held a sit-in atop scaffolding on a building opposite Rome’s prefecture and hung banners reading “Stop evictions” and “We are not terrorists”.

At least they’re not terrorists. Do you think some of them might be Muslim ‘refugees’?  It doesn’t matter.  Whoever they are, they have a perfect understanding of FrancisMercy, much clearer than the most sophisticated faux-Catholic FrancisApologist.  Whether it’s earthly goods or God’s pardon, FrancisMercy just means expecting to be given something for which you have no right.

In the street below, some 100 Italians and foreigners called for Rome to address a growing housing crisis.

“Every day there are between 30 and 50 families in Rome put out on the street,” said Omero Lauri, 51, RAM spokesman.

“The situation has got much worse recently with the excuse of terrorism,” he said, with fears of jihadist violence since the Paris attacks last year leading to heightened concerns over undocumented people living off the radar.

But Alejandro Moncada from Equador, 35, said security issues were just an excuse to intensify evictions.

“The irony is that it is the pope’s Year of Mercy,” he said, in reference to a special Jubilee year called by Francis from December 8, during which pilgrims are urged to dedicate more time to merciful acts and helping the disadvantaged.

“This year should be about helping the weak, not treating us like terrorists,” said the father-of-one, who has been in Italy for 12 years along with his wife and parents, but struggles to find work as a cleaner.

Is every bum in Europe now being confused with a terrorist?  If you get evicted for mooching off your landlord is that counter-terrorism?  Does being generally useless and broke mean you’re weak? Is this ‘cleaner’ who’s been unemployed for ten years someone else’s fault?

Catholic religious adherence and worship are acts of justice to God, who is both merciful and just.  As leader of the Catholic faith, the Pope is supposed to teach us how to treat God and each other with justice and love.  What are we supposed to do and why?  What is the pathway to follow Christ?  Instead, the FrancisEffect encourages bums to make unjust demands on others and think it’s moral.  They learn to flout, hurt, and ignore God, then presume he’s  ready to welcome them into Heaven with open arms.

Property and Catholic doctrine are twin enemies of the current man in white.

From the moment he walked out on the balcony, the FrancisEffect has been an enormous barrage of airy hype, nothing like the solid reality of Christ and His universe.

NC Reporter’s Robert Mickens writes:

Pope Francis is no longer drawing the massive crowds that were so evident in the first two years of his pontificate.

Statistics suggest that many fewer Christian pilgrims are coming to Rome to pray at the tombs of the apostles — or those of the saintly and not-so-saintly dead popes — that are found in various churches, crypts and catacombs throughout the Eternal City.

But even more worrying is that these pilgrims, and all other types of tourists, are no longer flocking to St Peter’s in record numbers to see the reigning pope himself.

I don’t believe numbers have ever been good for Francis.  Right-thinking people smelled a rat with Benedict fled.  You have to live in your television to embrace FrancisChurch.

This has led some scribes to declare that the Holy Year of Mercy, which Francis opened last Dec. 8 and will bring to a close at the end of next November, is doomed to be a colossal flop.

No crowds, no party.

Catholics who have been resistant to the Jesuit pontiff’s “revolution of tenderness and mercy” must be smiling. They have been terrified that his intention is to use the Jubilee to unleash a tidal wave of God’s mercy and forgiveness, even to the point of allowing divorced and remarried members of the church to return to receiving the sacraments.

God forbid. This just will not do.

These peoples’ greatest nightmare is that this borderline heretic pope, who never even earned a doctorate in theology, might be tempted to conform the church’s doctrine to “the spirit of the world” and end up peddling “cheap grace.”

This is not an exaggeration.

Of course it isn’t.  Only an effeminate harpie would be shocked to find otherwise.

There are even bishops — some of whom are in the College of Cardinals — who use these exact terms. But their greatest fear is that the doctrinally impoverished Francis could be duped to actually usher in — hold on your rosary beads! — the “Protestantization” of the Catholic church.

It is in incredible that fifty years after the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), there are still Catholics who continue to look with such contempt at their brothers and sisters who belong to the Reform churches and communities. More horrifying is that not a small number of them are comfortably ensconced in the Vatican or employed in the Roman Curia.

But it does not matter.

Pope Francis’ “revolution” is well underway and gaining momentum. Even if many millions of pilgrims do not come to Rome during the Holy Year, this phenomenon cannot be slowed down.

With the world and all its money-power behind it the NewMercy isn’t going away, that’s true.   But it will never be real and it will never replace the real Church.

Mickens’ visible hatred reveals the Satanic heart behind FrancisChurch.

In fact, the pope does not want huge crowds of people to come to Rome for the jubilee. He wants them to celebrate the yearlong event in their home dioceses, by being the first pope ever to encourage every diocesan cathedral around the world to have its own holy door. And not just the cathedrals, but also all significant shrines and even chapels in every prison.

Oh I see.  Francis doesn’t want anyone in Rome.  This is all supposed to happen at home and in prisons.  Maybe I’ve walked through a MercyDoor already by accident.  It’s funny I didn’t feel anything.

Perhaps the other old souls still stepping anywhere near a local Catholic parish didn’t notice their silly MercyDoors either.  In their ‘bitter contempt’ they thought those were just doors, nothing magical, bewitching, or spellbinding.

Prelates World-Wide Pass Through Holy FrancisDoors In Meaningful New Ceremonies For Mercy’s Sake

FrancisRamblings are insane, but they aren’t designed to make sense.  They’re supposed to make people believe lies.  If I were a student of the history of Protestant sects or cults and their leaders, I’m sure I would find that Francis fits a type.  Luther was similar.  You have to be a master of spin and false dichotomy.

At Mass this morning Francis said:

“Hope is a Christian virtue that is a great gift from God and that allows us to see beyond problems, pain, difficulties, beyond our sins. It allows us to see the beauty of God”.

That sounds pretty good, until we get to the part where we can ‘see beyond our sins’ through the virtue of hope.  Francis is so determined to make people think their sins don’t matter.  Is hope a virtue that allows us to see the beauty of God?

No one can see the beauty of God, but a pure heart helps you appreciate beauty.  What Francis seems to be referring to sounds more like piety.  Oooops.  Did I say something rigid?

According to Vatican Radio, Pope Francis stressed this during his daily morning Mass at his residence Casa Santa Marta, underscoring that those who have hope have the freedom and strength to see beyond the bad times, as well as opens up horizons and gives us freedom.

Why are these liberals always opening things and looking off to some horizon somewhere else?  Why do they call careless license ‘freedom?’

Reflecting on today’s Gospel, in which the chief priests question Jesus and ask with which authority does He act, the Pope said: “They have no horizons, they are men who are locked in their calculations, they are slaves to their rigidity”

Do you know why the pope hates the word ‘calculations,’ because it sounds like money, like people who are careful with money, and people who have money.  Pope Francis hates money.  He’s above money.  You don’t need money when you float about on a spiritual cloud of higher knowledge, looking past your sins and off to that free horizon of hope.  You don’t need money when you go around greasing wheels, slapping backs, and turning screws either.  A contempt for money, its inherent justice, and the power it bestows is integral to the true church of Francis.

FrancisChurch isn’t about hope and mercy.  It’s about enemies and targets.  Enemy #1 is power.  Enemy #2 are Catholics.  Both enemies have something Francis wants.  He wants power for his benefactors and he wants the Church so he can kill it, I mean,  ‘fix’ it.  In his mind, actual Catholics are the same as ruthless rich bastards who enslaved civilization for eons.  They both comprise a regime that must be dismantled.  They are united in their evil ‘rigidity,’ in a solidness that won’t give way without radical force.

It sounds preposterous and it is. It’s also communism, and for some reason it just won’t die.

“Human calculations,”  the Pontiff warned, “close hearts and shut out freedom”, while “hope gives us levity.”

Levity?

Meditating on the Book of Numbers Francis says:

Balaam opens his heart, repents and sees the truth, Francis noted, because “with good will one always sees the truth. Truth that gives hope.”

While Francis reflected on the beauty of freedom, of the hope of men and women of the Church, he also criticized the rigidity of others in the Church and “that clerical stiffness that contains no hope.”

Truth gives hope.  Hope gives levity.  Freedom is beautiful.  Something is always connected to something else in the aimless wandering of FrancisCosmos, except for rigidity.  Rigidity and clerical stiffness is not related to hope at all.  It has no hope, like the inhabitants of Hell.  Your heart is closed and not like an open door at all.  If you believe, you are stiff.  You need to move or be moved. You have only hopelessness to offer.

“In this Year of Mercy,” the Pope said, “there are these two paths: one of those who hope in God’s mercy and know that God is the Father; and then there are those who take refuge in the slavery of rigidity and know nothing of God’s mercy.”

Two paths?  I thought in the Year of Mercy there was but one path for all and none were excluded.  There are no longer any boundaries or criteria to the Catholic Faith nor to Heaven, and exclusion is against God.  You just step through the door of FrancisMercy and suddenly the mercy of God is imbued into you.  You may now look past your sins because everybody has sins. It doesn’t matter what they are or if you repent them.

So on the other side of the Holy Door of FrancisMercy, after I’ve walked through it partaking now of a new Mercy never before known, I can still go down two paths.  Next year maybe there will be just one path again, but for a year there’re two – just like this year you can go to Confession at an SSPX chapel and it works!

Next year it’s a sin and it might not work, but this year it does and there are also two paths.

Path 1: Hope in God’s mercy and know God is Father.

Path 2: Try and take refuge from my radical Church-wide anathema, be a slave to your rigid Faith, and know nothing whatsoever of God’s mercy.

In the year of FrancisMercy, FrancisMercy is the only mercy.  If you’re too rigid for that, go to Hell.

All around the world today there are pictures of ridiculous looking bishops stepping through special FrancisDoors for what?  Is that really a blessing, honoring a man who hates the Faith of Christ by doing his ceremonial dance of presumption and contempt?  Read the man’s words.  If you are a Catholic, that door brings a curse, and cursed you very well may be.
