How do you know what he was praying for? Since he already canonized him—and Francis the False is after all truly patron saint of the Lavender Mafia (including the episcopal Charlotte & St. Gallen Clowns)—he may have been imploring his aid.

I doubt he was imploring the aid of Pope Frantic. Pope Provost believes in the same god Pope Frantic adhered to. (Hint, it's the same god of NuttyYahoo the Prime Minister.)

In case you have not figured this out yet, Pope Provost is to the Vatican what SuperTrump is to the WHite House. This is all about the Spectacle and Image. Logic was checked at the door years ago.

There never has been clarity w Papism. Confusion is from the Devil.

You’re amongst the Papists in case you didn’t notice and wandered in by mistake.

Sometimes you have to stop and try to help, even if you know the people don't want to be helped and will keep themselves stuck in the predicament they find themselves in. At least I tried.

I say this as an ex-Papist myself.

If you knew something about the papal teachings of the last 500 years, you might come to see the guidance of the Holy Spirit in what they taught. See, e.g., what popes from the late 19th C. thru the mid-20th (after which there was the prophesied overthrow of the papacy) taught about the Social Kingship of Christ the King & against its Judeo-Masonic enemies:

I remember The Shadow, what a great radio show.

I only ask because I think Leo has decided.

Leo clearly idolizes Francis the False and more so venerates Francis’s memory—either the worst pope in history or as I hold False Pope and history’s first non-Catholic Antipope.

His ostentatious prayers before the tomb strike me—like so much from the St. Gallen mafia—as staged hagiography.

It also recalls Benedict’s two famous visits to the tomb of Pope Saint (Peter of Morone) Celestine V. Those visits were certainly not praying for the repose of his soul, whatever Dante may have thought.

History’s first non-Catholic antipope was John XXIII, elected 2 days after a validly elected pope was threatened into invalid abdication, as explained at whitesmoke1958.com &

If Leo is praying for him, it is because having know him in Argentina, and then at the Vatican, Leo is well aware that Jorge Maria Bergoglio is not on the fast track to heaven. Yet, whitewashing a thuggish pontiff so he appears saintly, (see cover of Time Magazine) is good for Vatican's reputation & finances. Imagine what it would call into question if the former pope's lack of sanctity was even discussed openly by Pope Bob.

If he thinks Francis is in heaven, he is probably praying to him and not for him. So what's the big deal?
