Oh c'mon-- did nobody notice that Orlando Bloom, the actor who played Legolas in The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, was right there beside her? He's sorta former Anglican-cum-Buddhist, or something.

Cannibalism videos? Stress-killing nuns? Abortion-support? LGBTQRSTUV? Creepy porny performances? Preaching false religions at the Vatican, and under a Madonna & Child icon?Openly blasphemous costumes and comments? Repent woman?.... anyone? Anyone?

Sadly, since RC-HQ doesn't much believe in converting people or "repenting" anymore, I believe Miss Hudson and Mr. Bloom will NOT in fact repent, covert, and be saved-- despite the sad & desperate attempt of the one-worlder squishy Catholics to make themselves popular, and all things to all people.

This is 2018: why bother? There's no hell, you just need to be good, God made you that way, and who is he to judge? All is well, as you were. Carry on.

Jesu, mercy!

The things *he* is promoting to change the Church are even more disturbing. :(

So, so very sad.

Amen, Mr. Matt. Archbishop Fulton Sheen once asked "Who's going to save the Church? " Then he said, "Its our job (lay people), to see that our bishops act like bishops and our priests act like priests." And bless her soul, Mother Angelica once said, "The world is in such poverty of truth today." Thank you for speaking the truth Mr. Matt. God bless you. Let's all stand together and speak the truth with love and gentleness. People can either take it or leave it. Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us.

Entertaining a practicing cannibal, Katy Perry, may be the straw that broke the camel's back. It's rumored, that for a variety of reasons, Francis is on his way out, and an African Prelate is moving into his position.

There's an interesting book on Alexander VI. 'The Truth about Rodrigo Borgia'. It's more than possible the whole story of this 'wicked pope' is yet another Black Legend, made up to discredit the Church (No really! Would anybody do that??). The would make the present pontificate waaaaaay ahead of anything we've previously experienced, by another 50.000 miles or so.

Holy men who follow the ways of Christ and His Church are able to distinguish good from evil, and to then admonish the evil and protect those under their care from that evil.
I wait in trembling, yet with determiniation and persevarance for Church leaders to do so.

I'm speechless.

I can only repeat a great comment I read on social media : ''If Jorge Bergoglio was taken to court accused of being a Catholic - he'd be acquitted!"

Not only that. He'd sue his accusers successfully, and with the financial proceeds
would promptly go fund the construction of a museum of THAT curiosity generally known as; The Catholic Faith.

This woman was a open supporter of Hilary Clinton who paraded around at her election convention dressed as a pagan while screaming "lets get our girl into the white house".A pervert who is into New Age practices and now is an advisor to the Vatican.There is no excuse you are a pervert and an Apostate.

It is unbearable! Listening to her perversions made me sick to my stomach. Pope Francis is a nightmare, I expect he will give Perry an ornament for her mantelpiece. What a load of nonsense, as if the true Catholic faith does not know everything there is to know about meditation and contemplation; always God centred and never self centred. Anyway the queen of the ME ME culture is simply typical of her generation and the millions of twits that follow her, selfish to the core. It is truly tragic. We must continue to pray for Pope Francis and for his conversion to orthodox Catholic teaching because he is so diabolically deluded. Thank you Mike for your courageous apostolate, we will win in the end.

This reminds me of a video I once seen on youtube about a big old icon of Saint Michael weeping tears in a orthodox church in Rhodes, Greece in 2013.---- I wonder what Saint Michael thinks now in 2018! Saint Michael, help us...

You may well wish to question the decision of the Pontifical Council for Culture (PCC) for collaborating in this fashion show, although it is in line with their policy under their President Cardinal Gianfrano Ravasi appointed by Francis' predecessor. PCCs first President, Paul Paupard - also appointed by John Paul II - was more classical, but then John Paul II merged two discasteries, and so PCC's outreach is not only to culture in all is diverse dimensions but also to agnosties and non-belivers. Dialogue is for learning, and when possible appreciating. Without such dialogue how can their be meaningful evangelisation? The papal handshake with Katy Perry was one of dozens - if not more - nothing special, Francis spending a few seconds with her as with everyone else. You clearly are not in agreement with PCC's outreach under Ravasi, fair enough. go ahead and investigate them and then inform us of your results.

Malachi Martin, in his last interview on the Art Bell Show, spoke of an Anti-Pope. There was a caller calling in from Australia, and he said that a Jesuit had revealed to him that in the Third Secret it is revealed that there will be, as it were, a pope who was entirely in the control of the devil. Malachi answered, "that sounds like the verbatim words of the Secret."

We are there, folks --- Keep praying your Rosary daily for the Triumph of Our Lady's Immaculate Heart. "Only She, the Lady of the Rosary, can save us!"

why do you keep denying the Son of God ?

Delon, are you unfamiliar with the Catholic teaching that all graces which come to us from God the Son - pass first through the Immaculate Heart of Mary? This is not just pious language! It is the very structure of reality itself. Beginning in the 2nd century with the theological work of St. Irenaeus, the Catholic Faith has upheld the truth that just as sin came to us from Adam and Eve - so also now salvation comes to us through the Second Adam, Who is Jesus Christ, and the Second Eve, Who is the Blessed Virgin Mary. When Our Lady appeared in Fatima in 1917, and through subsequent appearances and communications to the seers, She let it be known that "the time has come" when the Blessed Trinity wants this Truth to be especially known and revealed -- through what will be called the "Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary" - which is the only answer to the dilemma of our times. The Lord HimSelf told Sr. Lucia of Fatima that unless Our Lady is obeyed with regards to both the release of the full 3rd Secret of Fatima and the consecration of Russia, by name, to Her Immaculate Heart, there will be no Peace for us - in the world or the Church. The reason, He said, is that He wants devotion to His Mother's Heart placed ALONGSIDE devotion to His Sacred Heart by His whole Church! -- and thus He wants to save us by THIS means, i.e., the Immaculate Heart of Mary! There is nothing wrong with saying "only, She, the Lady of the Rosary, can save us" in these times! This points to the profound Truth about Who Our Lady is in the divine plan of salvation! Our Lady, Herself, told the 3 children of Fatima when showing them the vision of hell on July 13, 1917 - with many souls falling into it - "You have seen hell where the souls of poor sinners go. To save them, God wishes to establish in the world devotion to my Immaculate Heart. If what I say to you is done, many souls will be saved and there will be peace."

Excellent. This truth needs constant refreshing. Thank you.

Well said!! I completely concur!
Hail Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, our Life, our Sweetness and our Hope!

"what will they do when the wood is dry?" (Luke 23:31) Not to belittle the Lord's question, maybe this is the answer.

I muse whether God is testing the Vatican machinery before calling for a full overhaul.....
Shock waves were the result of the woman sinner brought to Jesus when He rebuked the Pharisees who tried tricking Him, forgave the woman, and LOVED her enough to warn her to sin no more.

Now a great sinner has been brought to the Vatican, someone who does not even realize how deep into the demonic she has fallen, and what do they do? They give HER the podium to teach others about how to call up demons. (And she's not the first--recall Jeffrey Sachs, Emma B., etc.)

Just meeeting the Vicar of Christ can be a powerful, disarming experience, why stop there? Give the Holy Spirit a voice, speak a phrase of hope, love, warning, anything at all from the mouth of Christ. Has he completely lost all fear of God?

Pope Francis has no fear of the Lord in my opinion. I also think that Katy Perry isn't the problem here; it's the Pope. That he invited Perry to the Vatican so that she could blather about transcendental meditation would be amusing if it weren't so appalling. The event had nothing to do with Catholicism and the naive belief some Catholics have that the Pope was proselytizing is risible. (Didn't Pope Francis declare that proselytizing is "a sin" and "nonsense"?)

Tell me who thou goest with.... and I'll tell you who thou art.

Anyone notice the theme of the Met Ball idiocy this year? Heavenly Bodies and The Catholic Imagination. Fr James Martin and Cardinal Dolan were consultants in this travesty. Katy Perry had the gall dress as an angel, supposedly St Michael. Madonna was in pseudo Franciscan habit...I can't go on. They are mocking us with this spectacle. I am so disgusted. Sweet advocate Mary, pray for us. St. Michael, defend us.

I'm unclear as to what a 'personal meeting' actually entails? Did he meet her 'privately' i.e., an official diary appointment, one to one? Or did he meet her while he was walking among a group of visitors to the Vatican?
I have never heard of this young woman , and I try to keep up with what's happening. So there's a good chance, if it was the latter, he was equally clueless.

It wasn't just a meeting. It was a conference that had NOTHING to do with Catholicism, to which Katy Perry, Dr. Oz, Meredith Viera, and others were invited as honored guests. The same Pope who won't deign to answer the Dubia is hosting various celebrities at the Vatican. I don't really see how anyone can informed, practicing Catholic can defend Pope Francis at this point.

Bergoglio is all about himself and the publicity he gets. So do you really think he was ignorant of the numbers of kids etc behind Katy Perry, and the consequent publicity he himself would get?

Imagine anything you like, Martin. At this point, imagining the current pontiff with a Margarita in a swimming pool, while Katy Perry is ranting "Hot 'N Cold" in front of him clad in a cardinal's cassock with nothing underneath it, is as much valid now to me as seeing the two of them holding hands looking in sheer adoration at a Madonna of El Greco in the Vatican Museum. At this point, nothing is beyond the possible.

I just finished The Dictator Pope and The Lost Shepherd; these two books deal with the depravity of the Bergoglio Church. His recent embracing of James Martin’s homosexual agenda and Katy Perry’s satanism is really too much. My faith in the Church is severely shaken and I am speechless.

When you have no substance, you need to rely on flash. This is what the Church is reduced to.

If he has any substance it is totally opposite of Catholicity.

I used to regard the Catholic hierarchy as the church's version of RINOs. I was wrong. They are outright sellout liberals.

Meanwhile, the Catholic clergy -- cardinals, archbishops, bishops, priest -- continue to do nothing about anti-pope Francis....

Yes, and in the USA almost fifty percent of the parish churches have been closed down and barely 35% of catholics attend mass but Katy Perry, Madonna, and Miley Cyrus, satanists are being honored by Bergoglio who sees them as spiritual leaders.

Years ago, Katy Perry admitted in an interview that she had sold her soul to the devil. Note that the woman interviewing Perry was wearing a pair of upside-down cross earrings.

Katy Perry may simply have been flippant when she said that. Sometimes people will make flippant remarks without being fully aware of the significance of what they are saying. But even if she was being merely flippant rather than literal, it was an outrageously dangerous thing to say, nothing to joke about.

Mr Matt, why, as you rightly say, is it a "big story"? I submit it is simply because it takes place in the Vatican, which has done nothing to prevent the "people of God" renouncing the magisterial teaching of Original Sin. Not a single diocesan bishop is protesting and our pastors are silent.

Peter

Terrible shame on them.

Sorrowful Heart of Mary, pray for us!

Hmmmm? I hope, he's not using her, to take our youth, from the Catholic Church. So sad! God helps us!

God save us from pope daddio and the new age loon.

Can't wait to hear your comments on The Met Gala.... They really outdid themselves!

https://remnantnewspaper.co...

She is certainly not a christian SHE IS A SATANIC WITCH ! Life Site News had a clear article about it and even non-believers figured out she was doing witchcraft (Grammy 2014, I think; singing Dark Horses). How can the Vatican be so blind, so naive and so stupid? Faith seems to have been lost at the higher level indeed. Thanks for beeing there.

"...my pious in-laws staunchly support not just Francis but all the post-conciliar popes." I believe you are making a mistake when talking to relatives by bringing other Popes into it when talking about Pope Francis. This Pope is distinctly different than the ones who preceded him, whatever faults they may have had. I seems clear that Bergoglio does not believe in Catholicism -- at all -- or even in Christianity. In addition, he is a nasty person who is doing what he "joked" he would do: "Split the Church".

many of us are in this very very painful situation all over the world.....

such darkness right from the heart of our Church.. but Jesus has overcome the world! Let us remember that. Today is Ascension Thursday - 40 days after He Rose .... !!
We are an Easter People - but we have to also carry our Cross .. and this is our Cross today... The holy Eucharist, Confession and the Rosary are our weapons!

Give them the FACTS, including Bergoglio's honoring of Katy Perry, a self-professed satanist.
