The John-Henry Westen Show - Resisting communism, freemasonry, and globalist disorientation

00:00:00.000 Cancel culture aims to cancel all of culture, not just some of it.

00:00:03.880 That's its aim.

00:00:06.400 You can see that the real project isn't just the removal of a statue

00:00:10.020 or the baudelarising of a book

00:00:11.840 or the destruction of anything that connects people to a history

00:00:15.420 beyond the last TikTok video they saw.

00:00:17.720 Cancel culture aims to cancel all of culture, not just some of it.

00:00:21.520 That's its aim.

00:00:22.640 That's not an accident.

00:00:23.880 It's not a side effect.

00:00:25.780 Everything that's meaningful about the human condition.

00:00:28.400 Not just what's contained in culture, but in human-scale relations

00:00:32.920 is inimical to the technocratic model of an efficient managerial society

00:00:38.820 informed by advancement in machinery and in computing.

00:00:42.960 That's what technocratic managerialism is.

00:00:45.800 It's simply the dreams of managers,

00:00:47.780 as laid out in Joseph Burnham's 1941 book, The Managerial Revolution,

00:00:52.420 altered by rapid advances in computing power.

00:00:55.780 There was a French thinker, forgive me for mentioning this,

00:01:00.320 because it's always problematic to talk about intellectuals,

00:01:04.140 but Jacques Ellot deserves a mention

00:01:05.800 because he wrote a book called La Technique,

00:01:08.160 or The Technological Society,

00:01:10.360 in which he mentions some of the dangers

00:01:12.200 of our increasing reliance upon this.

00:01:14.380 Now, again, you know, to speak of another Frenchman,

00:01:17.640 Jean-Paul Sartre once remarked in one of his books

00:01:20.480 that the result of the working class being exposed

00:01:24.980 to increasing levels of intrusive technology

00:01:28.140 was that their very dreams would be dominated by machines.

00:01:32.100 In fact, he wrote a passage in which he spoke about a housemaid,

00:01:35.440 and he said, even when she dreamed, she dreamed of the machine.

00:01:39.000 The point is, is that the accelerating integration

00:01:43.840 of human identity with technology

00:01:46.060 is not augmenting our human experience.

00:01:49.440 It is altering it.

00:01:50.620 In fact, it's dissolving it into pixels, if you like.

00:01:53.640 People are becoming a function of the technology they use,

00:01:56.920 rather than having it serve their own needs.

00:01:59.600 This mirrors exactly what's happened with managerialism,

00:02:02.860 which was invented initially as an instrument of mankind,

00:02:06.020 but which has made mankind its own tool.

00:02:09.300 The technology that informs managerialism

00:02:11.640 is a technology that is altering the human dimension

00:02:14.400 and collapsing it into one dimension from many.

00:02:18.280 This is the nightmare vision of the technocratic future,

00:02:21.760 and it's one that's represented not just by large-scale bureaucracies

00:02:25.480 such as the failing and happily failing World Economic Forum,

00:02:29.500 but by the people who genuinely do run the world,

00:02:32.620 people who have preferred to remain in the shadows until now,

00:02:35.400 people like BlackRock and people like Vanguard.

00:02:39.140 Now, hopefully, having moved into the light,

00:02:43.320 it is very unlikely, in my view,

00:02:45.400 that they will be able to survive this exposure

00:02:47.220 because they have, like the neoconservatives,

00:02:50.480 like many of the technocrats that rule us,

00:02:53.220 they have rather haughtily dismissed

00:02:55.220 the matter of public opinion as an irrelevance.

00:02:59.340 I don't think it will remain irrelevant for long.

00:03:01.940 People are beginning to understand

00:03:03.180 what these ideas mean when they come together,

00:03:05.000 which shows the enormously hearty example of the Dutch farmers.

00:03:10.280 Last year, they didn't exist as a political force,

00:03:13.620 but as a result of the World Economic Forum-inspired measure

00:03:16.740 to close down thousands of their farms,

00:03:19.540 destroying the world's second greatest exporter of food,

00:03:24.180 and therefore destabilising the world food market,

00:03:26.540 as well as removing the livelihoods and land by force

00:03:30.320 of much of the Dutch farming sector.

00:03:32.600 Because these people had human-scale relationships that still existed,

00:03:37.500 because they had strong communities that exist outside the digital world,

00:03:41.700 they managed to build very quickly a formidable political

00:03:45.660 and demonstration-fuelled opposition movement,

00:03:50.600 which has moved into second or even first place in Dutch politics.

00:03:54.280 In several months' time, there will be an election in Holland,

00:03:57.660 which they're expected to win.

00:03:59.160 They're at least expected to win in the sense that they'll have

00:04:02.340 a controlling interest in the new government.

00:04:04.500 They may even come first.

00:04:06.500 So there is hope for us all.

00:04:08.320 These projects that these people have for us are not unstoppable,

00:04:11.420 and the fact that they do produce instability does not work in their favour.

00:04:17.320 The policies of the World Economic Forum's chief stakeholders

00:04:20.360 probably explain their absence from the World Economic Forum's meeting,

00:04:25.020 because it would be profoundly embarrassing for them to turn up

00:04:28.120 in a meeting that is ostensibly devoted to naming

00:04:31.320 and shaping the future masters of the world.

00:04:34.500 These so-called masters have made a terrible mess of the contemporary world,

00:04:38.460 and it is perhaps for this reason that they're absent from their showcase,

00:04:42.700 because what they have to sell at isn't particularly appealing anymore.

00:04:46.900 To be honest, the message of reality is breaking through the propaganda machine.

00:04:51.640 It is an unwelcome message, but it is one whose unwelcome nature

00:04:55.540 is necessary to the degree in which it's true,

00:04:58.540 in order to awaken people to the reality of this crisis,

00:05:01.740 as against the unreality of every other one,

00:05:03.980 which has been used as an instrument to mould you to the will

00:05:07.060 of your would-be masters.

00:05:08.980 It certainly seems like the agenda is to de-industrialise,

00:05:13.140 to basically, it's a false plan.

00:05:17.400 There will be no service economy

00:05:20.200 when you have no funds to keep it going.

00:05:26.020 Hello, dear LifeSite family.

00:05:27.860 The very first Christmas was a dark time,

00:05:30.680 with the world in the clutches of a foreign and hostile power, 0.94

00:05:33.660 and with religious leaders betraying God and their flocks at every opportunity.

00:05:39.580 But yet, it was in that very time that the angels joyfully announced to the shepherds

00:05:44.380 the birth of the long-awaited Messiah, the Holy One of Israel, Jesus the Christ.

00:05:48.840 And we are in very similar times again.

00:05:52.700 Millions of people worldwide are searching for truth and light,

00:05:57.000 as our fragile world seems to be growing darker by the day.

00:06:01.500 Our work at LifeSite News results from an unwavering trust in our holy call to evangelize,

00:06:08.180 to bring the world the truth, ultimately the fullness of the truth himself.

00:06:13.720 At LifeSite, we pledge ourselves anew to boldly ring out the truth of Christ

00:06:19.980 on life, faith, family, and freedom.

00:06:23.080 We're in the midst of our second annual Gifts of Gratitude Christmas campaign,

00:06:26.740 and invite you to join us in celebrating LifeSite News' special way

00:06:31.980 of sharing reflections and reactions directly from the heart

00:06:35.180 about what truly motivates us here to work for you on the front lines of the culture war.

00:06:42.500 So during our Christmas campaign, we must raise $750,000

00:06:45.960 in order to meet the minimum amount required to keep our news mission and operations going.

00:06:51.880 So we rely on your gracious help and support to keep our truthful news mission going,

00:06:58.320 especially as we close 2023 and embrace the lean and early winter months.

00:07:05.040 This is our largest goal of the entire year,

00:07:08.120 and one that requires each of you to prayerfully consider a donation.

00:07:13.320 Please know that any amount helps.

00:07:15.980 To give your own personal gift of gratitude,

00:07:19.240 you can donate by clicking on the big red banner at the main homepage of LifeSite News

00:07:24.340 or the giving link that can be found below in the video description box.

00:07:29.420 It is only through your love, prayers, and generous support for our mission

00:07:33.700 that we are able to continue reporting the truth without compromise.

00:07:37.400 This Christmas season, let each of us do what we can

00:07:42.000 to be the light that we are called to be in this culture of darkness

00:07:45.400 and so we can enable the truth himself to shine ever so brightly as a result.

00:07:53.560 So I want to thank you so much for your unwavering support

00:07:57.100 and continued prayers for LifeSite News.

00:07:59.920 I pray you have a happy and holy Christmas.

00:08:02.740 May God bless you.

00:08:03.260 It's meant to work on the very same thing that caused our parents to fall,

00:08:08.980 our first parents, pride.

00:08:10.240 An active alliance between human beings and the demonic.

00:08:14.380 That's what they're all about.

00:08:18.200 The ultimate promised land is heaven,

00:08:20.520 but to bridge that gap between the infinite creator and the finite creature,

00:08:25.480 you need grace.

00:08:26.280 Your soul needs to become a temple.

00:08:28.240 And so the Christian mysteries end up supplanting and destroying, really, 1.00

00:08:32.500 defeating the pagan mysteries.

00:08:35.480 Well, Freemasonry sees itself as a restoration of these pagan mysteries.

00:08:40.260 That's what many of them say.

00:08:41.660 Now, another point that Leo XIII and Monsignor Dillon make frequently

00:08:45.560 is that not every person who's a Freemason, especially the lower levels,

00:08:49.340 it's not like they know about all this.

00:08:51.220 And many of them have been suckered, frankly.

00:08:53.840 That's essentially what they say.

00:08:55.120 And so the reason why they want to restore these pagan mysteries

00:08:59.140 is because it's the pre-Christian system in which man was finding salvation

00:09:03.980 in some faux attempt to be like God,

00:09:07.240 which is what Satan had tempted us into in the first place.

00:09:11.000 That we do see.

00:09:12.060 I mean, that is rife today with different indigenous movements

00:09:16.680 and back to the earth and the mother God that we hear about

00:09:20.500 from a lot of our own spiritual leaders.

00:09:23.760 Unbelievable.

00:09:24.520 The whole Pachamama scandal and all these things.

00:09:27.900 But they are very much going back to a pagan worship.

00:09:31.260 I remember I was here in Canada when Pope Francis came to Canada

00:09:34.980 and they had the witch doctor, shaman guy,

00:09:38.500 you know, blowing a bone whistle to four directions

00:09:41.740 while, you know, the Catholic clergy there

00:09:45.120 had their hands on their chest, eyes closed.

00:09:46.740 But literally saying, you know, I want to ask the grandmother of the West

00:09:52.500 or something like that, the Western direction,

00:09:53.920 to open the circle of spirits to come and join us here.

00:09:56.380 That sounds to me exactly like what you're talking about.

00:09:59.820 Like a kind of pagan former thing that existed before,

00:10:04.160 but it's trying to be brought back in,

00:10:05.680 not only to secular culture where it's coming on strong there too,

00:10:10.560 but also even into the church.

00:10:12.620 I'm not going to cite the sources I've read.

00:10:15.120 You know, my spiritual director always knows about it.

00:10:17.260 And there have definitely been some sources where we're like,

00:10:19.160 nah, let's not go there.

00:10:20.840 These things, we need to be very careful about these things.

00:10:23.000 But I essentially became convinced through my study of this topic,

00:10:28.060 Masonic sources themselves,

00:10:30.080 that the essence of what they were doing was,

00:10:33.580 like I said before, a reestablishing, I guess you could say,

00:10:36.740 of an active alliance between human beings and the demonic.

00:10:41.100 That's what they're all about.

00:10:42.200 Another way I phrase it in the book is, you know,

00:10:46.180 the difference between the Catholic faith and occultism is we believe our souls

00:10:49.860 need to become a temple for the divine,

00:10:51.960 and we can expel the divine if we purposely choose to sin.

00:10:55.240 They believe the divine is already within us.

00:10:57.440 Another way that I think is helpful to think about it is we believe

00:11:00.400 we can only be saved by being incorporated into the second atom.

00:11:04.620 They believe you can be saved by remaining in the first atom,

00:11:08.300 nature bereft of grace.

00:11:09.600 And so that's why there is a sort of magical approach to nature among all these movements,

00:11:16.440 because they really do believe the divinity is already latent within nature.

00:11:21.280 They don't believe that that infinite gap requires grace to be bridged.

00:11:26.080 And so that's what all this supposedly secret knowledge is about.

00:11:29.600 And that's frankly, you know, I actually in law school,

00:11:32.720 somebody tried to recruit me to the Masons,

00:11:35.320 and I was very tempted.

00:11:36.220 I was a Protestant at the time.

00:11:37.920 Now, Masons never say, will you join up? 1.00

00:11:40.680 They don't do that.

00:11:41.460 Their policy is they will wait for you to ask,

00:11:44.720 because when you ask, there's already enough curiosity

00:11:48.280 and probably vanity and pride that's been stirred up

00:11:50.840 to get you to ask in the first place.

00:11:52.680 I mean, my goodness, I grew up watching National Treasure,

00:11:55.520 like this idea of being part of the secret fraternity that exercises,

00:11:59.180 you know, control, punching way above its weight,

00:12:01.080 whatever, that appeals to all sorts of vanity and pride and whatnot.

00:12:04.160 So fortunately, I didn't do it.

00:12:06.060 Something was holding me back.

00:12:07.660 And the guy who was asking me seemed like a decent guy in many ways.

00:12:10.780 But then I got back home to California after law school

00:12:13.540 and the People's Republic of California, as we call it.

00:12:17.320 And then another man who I met who was a very senior leader in Freemasonry,

00:12:21.680 he also started to meet with me.

00:12:23.640 And I hadn't quite become Catholic yet, but I was beginning,

00:12:26.440 I hadn't read Monsignor Dillon,

00:12:27.780 but I was beginning to read all sorts of stuff.

00:12:29.620 So I think this whole idea that if you have this certain gnosis,

00:12:33.620 that you kind of access this mystical knowledge of nature at the higher levels,

00:12:38.740 I think it's meant to work on the very same thing that caused our parents to fall,

00:12:43.280 our first parents, pride.

00:12:44.980 You shall be as gods.

00:12:48.220 Stalin famously said that he was the engineer of souls

00:12:51.700 and they were trying to form the new Soviet man.

00:12:54.120 And they're forming man in the image of a fallen world, essentially.

00:12:59.380 Communism always claims to be an almost salvific ideology.

00:13:04.820 It forwards a worldly utopia,

00:13:07.140 which of course, as Catholics, we know is impossible.

00:13:09.940 And that is really where the crux of its main error lies

00:13:12.640 in that we are in a fallen world.

00:13:14.960 Of course, we have been redeemed through Christ's blood,

00:13:17.400 but we will never achieve perfection here on this earth.

00:13:20.580 We store up our treasure in heaven for the next life.

00:13:23.040 Communism inverts that entire cosmology.

00:13:26.160 It denies the existence of God and says,

00:13:28.260 instead, you can have perfection and utopia here on earth.

00:13:31.780 Ironically, it never achieves this

00:13:33.360 because we've seen that the death count of communism

00:13:36.100 in the tens and hundreds of millions over the past century alone

00:13:39.920 is evidence enough that this is not the worldly utopia

00:13:42.860 that they claim to achieve.

00:13:44.740 And it's because they have these foundational principles wrong.

00:13:49.780 Communism, people make the mistake, as you alluded to,

00:13:52.400 that it's primarily just economic.

00:13:54.820 And as I hope to illustrate through this book,

00:13:57.580 it really has this almost demonic undertone to it.

00:14:01.200 Religion was heavily targeted by communist regimes the world over.

00:14:05.020 So astonishingly, the playbook against the Catholic Church

00:14:08.180 is pretty uniform,

00:14:10.080 despite geographic and temporal disparities

00:14:12.500 between these countries and these individuals that I spoke to.

00:14:15.360 And it's this playbook that really reveals the true nature of communism.

00:14:19.280 It's interesting because you know how with the LGBT movement, for instance,

00:14:24.980 there was always this talk about how members would be harming themselves

00:14:31.560 and they were doing all these bad things

00:14:34.560 and getting these psychological problems.

00:14:36.420 But they always blamed it on those who would say,

00:14:40.360 no, the behavior is against nature and you're harming yourself

00:14:43.680 and it's causing the problem.

00:14:45.700 But the homosexual activists rather would say,

00:14:47.940 no, no, no, it's not. 0.95

00:14:49.080 It's only you.

00:14:50.220 The whole reason why we're experiencing guilt and shame

00:14:54.300 and killing ourselves is all because you're condemning us.

00:14:57.500 We have to stomp out that condemnation. 0.96

00:15:00.440 Therefore, we'll be finding good.

00:15:01.740 We know that didn't work because if you go to Switzerland

00:15:03.880 and other countries where homosexuality is celebrated

00:15:05.980 and has been for decades,

00:15:07.280 they've still got the same suicide rate.

00:15:08.960 But the question is,

00:15:11.840 is there some similarity there with communist countries? 1.00

00:15:15.480 The reason why this is not working is because we have those darn Catholics 1.00

00:15:19.800 or people who believe in God, some God in the sky, 0.99

00:15:23.780 that are stopping us from achieving our utopia.

00:15:26.460 Yes, that's a great parallel that you make.

00:15:28.420 And of course, that's the argument that the communists use.

00:15:30.940 Catholics were often accused of being wreckers,

00:15:33.440 which is a term that basically accuses them

00:15:36.500 of sabotaging the communist project economically.

00:15:39.860 Also, a very major charge often leveled against Catholics

00:15:43.440 was counter-revolutionary.

00:15:45.260 And this is because not only we believe things

00:15:47.760 that are antithetical to the communist project,

00:15:49.640 but also because of the existence of the Vatican

00:15:52.140 as a sovereign state,

00:15:53.680 they would try to claim that Catholics were foreign agents.

00:15:56.280 So they always find a way to make it the fault

00:16:00.120 of the supposed fifth column

00:16:01.520 that their own ideology is failing at its own purported ends.

00:16:06.500 For two years now, we have been witnessing a global coup d'etat

00:16:11.560 in which a financial and ideological elite

00:16:16.660 has succeeded in seizing control

00:16:20.720 of part of the national government,

00:16:24.060 public and private institutions,

00:16:27.300 the media, the judiciary,

00:16:30.660 politicians and religious leaders.

00:16:32.980 I invite all those who want to defend

00:16:39.280 the traditional Christian society

00:16:41.260 to meet together in an international forum

00:16:46.100 to be held as soon as possible

00:16:49.840 in which representatives of various nations

00:16:53.360 come together to present a serious, concrete

00:16:58.280 and clear proposal.

00:17:01.660 My appeal is made to political leaders

00:17:05.240 and to rulers who care about good of their citizens,

00:17:10.640 leaving aside the old system of political parties

00:17:14.340 and the logic imposed by a system

00:17:17.620 enslaved to power and money.

00:17:20.980 I call the Christian nation together

00:17:24.840 from east to west,

00:17:28.480 inviting head of state

00:17:30.060 and the healthy forces of institutions,

00:17:34.580 the economy, labour, university,

00:17:39.320 healthcare and information

00:17:41.360 to join a common project,

00:17:45.000 disrupting the whole system

00:17:46.680 and putting aside the hostility

00:17:49.400 that are designed

00:17:50.700 by the enemies of humanity

00:17:53.980 in the name of divider and tempera.

00:17:58.680 We do not accept our adversary's rules

00:18:02.340 because they are made precisely

00:18:05.160 to prevent us from reacting

00:18:07.840 and organizing an effective

00:18:10.560 and incisive opposition.

00:18:14.300 I call upon nation and their citizens

00:18:17.480 to ally themselves

00:18:20.220 under the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ,

00:18:24.060 the only King and Savior,

00:18:26.940 the Prince of Peace,

00:18:29.860 in Oxenio Vincis.

00:18:31.920 Let us found this anti-globalist alliance.

00:18:39.020 Let us give.

00:18:41.240 It is a simple and clear program.

00:18:44.920 And let us free humanity

00:18:46.420 from a totalitarian regime

00:18:48.540 that brings together in itself

00:18:52.300 the horrors of the worst dictatorships

00:18:56.200 of all time.

00:18:57.400 If we continue to delay,

00:19:02.160 if we do not understand

00:19:04.540 the threat that looms over us all,

00:19:08.980 if we do not react

00:19:10.820 by organizing ourselves

00:19:13.460 into a firm and courageous resistance,

00:19:17.400 this impermanent regime

00:19:19.160 that is establishing itself everywhere

00:19:22.920 will not be able to be stopped.

00:19:25.760 And may the Almighty God

00:19:29.040 assist us and protect us.

00:19:34.120 Hey, my friends,

00:19:34.860 are you still looking for a Christmas gift

00:19:36.280 for that someone special on your list

00:19:37.620 who seems to have everything?

00:19:38.880 Well, I've got something for you.

00:19:40.140 We've got these beautiful silver rounds.

00:19:42.420 They're one ounce of pure silver.

00:19:43.920 And on it is, of course,

00:19:45.580 a picture of LifeSite

00:19:46.880 commemorating our 25th anniversary,

00:19:48.400 but also the anniversary

00:19:49.480 of the overturning of Roe v. Wade.

00:19:51.440 Perfect little gift

00:19:52.580 for that person on your list

00:19:53.660 who has everything.

00:19:54.320 God bless you.

00:19:56.740 There were prophecies

00:19:58.040 that talk about also

00:19:59.260 a false prophet coming. 0.94

00:20:01.260 It's in the scriptures as well

00:20:02.480 that, you know,

00:20:04.440 there would be a false prophet.

00:20:05.560 Many saints have suggested

00:20:07.200 that that false prophet 1.00

00:20:08.500 would be a pope.

00:20:09.960 I don't think we've had

00:20:11.020 a better contender

00:20:11.880 than Pope Francis.

00:20:15.200 And what will that mean?

00:20:16.400 We won't know

00:20:17.340 until the false prophet 0.95

00:20:18.940 were to point to,

00:20:19.920 like, an antichrist

00:20:20.540 and say that that's God.

00:20:21.780 That's the ultimate.

00:20:22.480 Have you ever heard

00:20:25.940 of that prophecy?

00:20:26.600 What do you make

00:20:27.280 of this idea?

00:20:28.040 Have you ever heard

00:20:28.420 of the idea that Francis

00:20:29.400 might be the false prophet?

00:20:30.580 I've heard it,

00:20:31.720 and I wouldn't even,

00:20:32.960 for two seconds,

00:20:33.940 think to be an expert

00:20:34.820 on it.

00:20:37.040 One thing,

00:20:37.720 you can correct me

00:20:38.240 if I'm wrong,

00:20:38.800 one thing that I always

00:20:40.200 understood about this

00:20:41.200 false prophet

00:20:41.920 is he was going to be

00:20:42.700 something like Felsenberg

00:20:44.060 in The Lord of the World,

00:20:45.640 you know,

00:20:46.220 where he was going to be

00:20:46.960 so brilliant

00:20:47.580 and so incredible

00:20:49.020 that everyone,

00:20:50.420 as the prophecies say,

00:20:51.440 even the elect

00:20:52.180 will be deceived.

00:20:53.200 That's for Antichrist himself.

00:20:54.620 Yes, exactly.

00:20:55.400 So I would apply

00:20:56.180 the same thing

00:20:56.680 to the false prophet. 0.75

00:20:57.480 There's going to be

00:20:58.080 a deception

00:20:58.680 that's going to fall,

00:20:59.660 everyone's going to fall for it.

00:21:01.840 What I've noticed

00:21:02.580 with Francis

00:21:03.040 is from the moment

00:21:04.220 he got in,

00:21:05.760 nobody's fallen for it.

00:21:07.600 Now, you have

00:21:08.020 the Nancy Pelosi's

00:21:09.140 and you have

00:21:09.500 the terrified bishops

00:21:10.680 who are too afraid

00:21:11.340 to resist him,

00:21:12.680 but think about,

00:21:13.820 and this,

00:21:14.160 maybe you've talked

00:21:14.720 about my years

00:21:15.800 who've experienced,

00:21:16.360 I have never seen

00:21:17.440 greater unity.

00:21:20.000 I mean, Raymond Arroyo

00:21:20.780 and Robert Arroyo

00:21:21.760 and Father Murray

00:21:23.060 sound like remnant columnists

00:21:24.360 over there on EWTN,

00:21:25.620 which used to be

00:21:26.480 neo-Catholic central,

00:21:28.320 you know.

00:21:29.400 I've never seen

00:21:30.520 so much agreement

00:21:31.780 that we have

00:21:32.400 a massive problem

00:21:33.440 in the church.

00:21:33.880 So again,

00:21:34.240 if you can correct me

00:21:35.180 on that,

00:21:35.520 if that's not at all

00:21:36.920 any part of the

00:21:37.660 false prophet prophecy,

00:21:39.440 but it seems to me

00:21:40.760 that Francis

00:21:41.280 has done just the opposite

00:21:43.320 of what the false prophet 0.92

00:21:44.340 is supposed to do,

00:21:45.280 and that's deceived

00:21:46.020 the world,

00:21:46.540 set up for the Antichrist,

00:21:48.000 instead everyone's going,

00:21:49.400 what is going on in Rome?

00:21:51.440 You know how

00:21:51.900 when we were kids

00:21:52.540 we learned that a priest

00:21:53.720 who loses the faith

00:21:55.260 and it's an interior thing

00:21:56.620 and he's not malicious

00:21:57.280 at all,

00:21:58.380 but he still wills

00:22:00.040 to do what the church

00:22:01.600 wants him to do

00:22:02.320 with respect to the mass,

00:22:03.940 but that mass

00:22:04.560 is still valid.

00:22:06.100 So it would be

00:22:06.760 a question of

00:22:07.380 how cognizant

00:22:08.560 is Francis

00:22:09.600 of the errors

00:22:11.400 of his ways?

00:22:12.960 Is he just thinking

00:22:14.040 in his mind

00:22:14.620 that he wants

00:22:15.060 to be pastoral

00:22:15.880 and get divorced 0.99

00:22:16.600 and remarried 0.98

00:22:17.120 and gay people

00:22:17.760 feeling better

00:22:18.380 about themselves

00:22:18.880 so they can come

00:22:19.380 to the Lord?

00:22:20.200 Well, I mean,

00:22:20.660 I don't think so,

00:22:22.060 but it's difficult

00:22:22.940 to know for sure.

00:22:23.920 So when you talk

00:22:24.360 about conversion,

00:22:25.540 you need to come back

00:22:26.960 fully to a full appreciation

00:22:28.400 of what it means

00:22:29.100 to be a Catholic

00:22:29.700 and I think that's

00:22:30.220 what Cardinal Muller

00:22:30.860 and some of the others

00:22:31.500 are saying,

00:22:32.040 that this is not Catholic anymore,

00:22:33.960 you need to stop.

00:22:35.220 But that doesn't

00:22:35.980 necessarily mean

00:22:37.020 he has lost his office

00:22:39.500 or he's ceased

00:22:40.140 membership in the church

00:22:41.180 because he's wayward

00:22:42.180 for a time.

00:22:43.020 Like, we have to give

00:22:43.760 even the Pope

00:22:44.460 the time for the grace

00:22:46.080 to work on him.

00:22:47.480 That's why it's so important

00:22:48.100 that we pray for him

00:22:48.860 that he might convert

00:22:50.240 and come back

00:22:50.800 and if he converts

00:22:51.440 and comes back

00:22:52.000 like John XXII did

00:22:53.380 or like Pius IX,

00:22:54.720 they thought he was

00:22:55.360 going to be a liberal

00:22:56.000 and said he can,

00:22:56.840 well, this would be

00:22:57.420 a wonderful,

00:22:58.580 beautiful thing.

00:22:59.460 So we do have to pray

00:23:00.400 for the Pope

00:23:00.940 because if he came back

00:23:02.200 and thwarted the efforts

00:23:03.360 of the World Economic Forum

00:23:04.940 and the United Nations

00:23:05.760 and everybody else,

00:23:06.900 well, that's a massive

00:23:07.680 victory for us.

00:23:08.380 But I agree with Bishop Schneider

00:23:09.380 that we should pray for him

00:23:11.060 to convert fully

00:23:11.980 to an understanding

00:23:13.280 of what it means

00:23:13.780 to be Catholic.
