Archbishop Vigano supports Donald Trump and the children of light against Archbishop Gregory

SHARE
An extraordinary letter from the Archbishop has been published. I am not sure what to make of it. He recently accused the Pope of wanting to place himself at the head of a new syncretic world religion. This has perhaps a small sliver of truth in it, but I think the Archbishop is badly losing his sense of proportion and injuring his cause. 

Which is a shame because the evidence he provided that the Pope knew about wicked bishops and priests and did nothing about them was important and, alas, credible.

He now seems to see Covid-19 and these insane riots as part of a deep state plot and possibly part of the end of the world.

The US religious right will love this. Archbishop Wilton Gregory is a disgrace, as are many bishops. If the allegations against him on the internet are true he is more than a disgrace. But this letter is a big mistake.

  1. For the first time, the United States has in you a President who courageously defends the right to life, who is not ashamed to denounce the persecution of Christians throughout the world, who speaks of Jesus Christ and the right of citizens to freedom of worship.

    Your participation in the March for Life, and more recently your proclamation of the month of April as National Child Abuse Prevention Month, are actions that confirm which side you wish to fight on. And I dare to believe that both of us are on the same side in this battle, albeit with different weapons.

    For this reason, I believe that the attack to which you were subjected after your visit to the National Shrine of Saint John Paul II is part of the orchestrated media narrative which seeks not to fight racism and bring social order, but to aggravate dispositions; not to bring justice, but to legitimize violence and crime; not to serve the truth, but to favor one political faction. And it is disconcerting that there are Bishops – such as those whom I recently denounced – who, by their words, prove that they are aligned on the opposing side.

    They are subservient to the deep state, to globalism, to aligned thought, to the New World Order which they invoke ever more frequently in the name of a universal brotherhood which has nothing Christian about it, but which evokes the Masonic ideals of those want to dominate the world by driving God out of the courts, out of schools, out of families, and perhaps even out of churches.

  2. At the moment, as His Excellency explains so well, Donald Trump—a most unlikely figure—stands between us and a diabolical New World Order.

    Why Donald Trump? I don’t know… Perhaps it’s because His vicar and most of the successors of the Apostles have gone over to the other side, have refused the invitation to the banquet, leaving God to go out into the highways and byways and press the sons of Cyrus the Great into service. I don’t know. But I do know that Archbishop Viganò’s Open Letter to Donald Trump gets right to the heart of it.

    1. Mr Trump puts me in mind of A. E. Housman's Epitaph on an Army of Mercenaries. He is no mercenary, in fact an idealist, but he is a barbarian fighting to preserve civilisation, as were the mercenaries.

      These, in the days when heaven was falling,
      The hour when earth's foundations fled,
      Followed their mercenary calling
      And took their wages and are dead.


      Their shoulders held the sky suspended;
      They stood, and the earth's foundations stay;
      What God abandoned, these defended,
      And saved the sum of things for pay.

    2. Still trying to put the best case for him, his letter reminds me of the letters I used to have to answer long ago from people who wrote in green ink.

  3. "I believe that the attack to which you were subjected after your visit to the National Shrine of Saint John Paul II is part of the orchestrated media narrative which seeks not to fight racism and bring social order, but to aggravate dispositions; not to bring justice, but to legitimize violence and crime; not to serve the truth, but to favor one political faction.

    The Archbishop is right about that, for sure, and when one thinks of Cardinal Marx opposing a law to make it compulsory to have a crucifix in every Bavarian schoolroom one does sympathise with his point about freemasonry.
