\u00a0<\/p>\n

Guest blogger, Duane Mandible is a contributing editor to\u00a0<\/em>The Truth Hurts, a bi-monthly journal of politics, economics and opinion. He also contributes regularly to\u00a0<\/em>Freedom Monthly; Illuminations\u00a0and\u00a0<\/em>The Sojourner. Duane is the author of\u00a0<\/em>Guns and Knives will Save Your Children\u2019s Lives.\u00a0He is Vice President of the Sacred Society of St Philibustre, and enjoys hunting rattlesnakes, square dancing and watching re runs of comedy classics. He is unmarried.<\/em><\/p>\n

It is with great interest that we in the Sacred Society of St Philibustre have observed the election in Rome this week of \u201cCardinal\u201d Jorge Mario Bergooglio as \u201cPope\u201d Francis. Of course we are saddened that our own Pope Linus has been rejected by the \u201cConclave of Cardinals\u201d but it was to be expected. We who \u00a0hold to the ancient traditions of the church are used to being persecuted by the purveyors of clown masses.<\/p>\n

In his first appearance on the balcony and first Mass we have already seen how Pope Francis has betrayed the minimal reforms in the liturgy pioneered by the timorous academic Joseph Ratzinger. The mozzarella was not worn, nor was the cappa magnesium. The triple tiara was left in the museum, and on his feet he did not wear the slipperia rubum. The seedy gestatoria was not restored nor the peacock fans. At Mass in the Sixteen Chapel I noticed that neither the buttoned, nor the more ancient be-ribboned maniple was worn. He also did not stand up very straight. \u201cPope Francis\u201d as he has called himself, is clearly another impostor and an anti-pope. Our own Pope Linus will soon be issuing a statement from his home in Bishop\u2019s Stortford in England regarding this pretender to the chair of St Peter. In it he will stress the importance of the Western Ambrosianic Rite (non-collegian) and the institution of the be-ribboned maniple.<\/p>\n

What interests me more than these liturgical innovations and infractions (which we have come to expect from the post Vatican II Novus Ordo Church) was the fact that Pope Francis clearly fulfills the prophecies of St Malachy. These earth shattering prophecies from the Old Testament minor prophet Malachy reveal that this is the last pope before the end of time. As the prophecies state, \u201cPetrus Romanus will reign before the sun falls from the sky and then after the great persecution the great judge will come.\u201d<\/p>\n

You may well ask how a Pope from Argentina who\u2019s name is Jorge and who takes the name Francis may be seen to be \u201cPetrus Romanus\u201d or \u201cPeter the Roman.\u201d We must remember that prophetic language is always cryptic and ambiguous. It takes some discernment to ascertain the true and certain meaning. The clue is in the name he has assumed. The full name of St Francis was Francis di Pietro di Bernadone. The middle name \u201cPietro\u201d means \u201cPeter\u201d in Italian. Although Pope Francis comes from Argentina, he is the son of an Italian railway worker, and therefore he is a true Italian not Argentinian. The capital of Italy is Rome, and all Italians consider themselves Romans at heart. Therefore it is clear that he is the \u201cPetrus Romanus\u201d of Malachy\u2019s prophecy.<\/p>\n

Furthermore when Pope Francis stepped onto the balcony he spoke of his love for \u201cthis beautiful city\u201d of Rome and most intriguingly said that the cardinals had chosen him \u201cfrom the ends of the earth.\u201d This cryptic phrase can also be understood as \u201cfrom the end of the world\u201d indicating that as \u201cSupreme Pontiff\u201d he knows that the end is nigh. In addition to this, the name \u201cJorge\u201d is the Spanish equivalent of \u201cGeorge\u201d and St George is the patron saint of Britain, of which the ancient \u201cemerald isle\u201d of Ireland is a part and from which St Malachy originated. The pope\u2019s given middle name is \u201cMario\u201d which indicates that he is one of the \u201cMario Brothers\u201d of video game fame. These were inspired by Italian mafioso figures\u2013a sinister undercurrent to what seems to be a humble and simple papal candidate. Finally the name \u201cBegooglio\u201d connects him with the internet giant \u201cGoogle\u201d who control the information gathered by millions across the world thus providing intelligence for the one world \u201cNovus Ordo\u201d New World Order. I don\u2019t think it can be any clearer that this new pope is part of the Freemason\/Bilderburgher\/Mormon conspiracy of which the singer Donnie Osmond and the politician Mitt Romney play a part.<\/p>\n

I do not say this to you my dear friends to alarm you in any way, but to remind you that there is still time to turn to the one true church in which there is salvation: the Sacred Society of St Philibustre. If you would like more information please contact our Archpriest and Universal Potentate\u2013 The Right Rev and Most Blessed Major (ret\u2019d) Donald Rickles through our website: true church.com<\/p>\n
