Pope Joe I

Just as Joe Biden was the face of the US presidency while the decision-makers were behind the curtain, we can now say with certainty that the Papacy of Leo is a façade for a continuation of Francis' rule. Francis was nobody's puppet, taking the conciliar church beyond conciliar in a brash and frequently rude way. He introduced the Listening Church which doesn't listen. Endless Synodal conversations followed by pronouncement of the pre-determined conclusion.

An insight of the timid and rather simple Leo the image from the pachamama ceremony. Everyone else is bowing before the idol. Fr. Prevost then decides to follow - last to join, but too weak to resist the crowd. One can credibly imagine Leo asking sheepishly, "Would be OK to wash the feet in the Lateran this year on Holy Thursday?"

Ignorant and heretical as they may be, the curia which Francis gathered are bold, merciless egoists, bent on tearing down the remnants of fealty to the Apostles. Leo is no match for them. He is the echo of President Biden. We can expect nothing good from Rome during his reign, and we should pray for his soul.
