A Change of Climate in Rome: Leftist US Presidential Candidate Bernie Sanders and Bolivia's Marxist President Evo Morales. It will be remembered that Morales is the man who gave the infamous Hammer-and-Sickle mockery of a crucifix to the eager Pope Francis in July 2015. 

A Changing Climate in Rome...

Last July, we described how Pope Francis had met with 50 leftist mayors from all around the world to discuss ''climate change'' at a conference in Rome. Eyebrows were raised when he described those gathered mayors in glowingly hyperbolic terms as the ''conscience of humanity''.

At the time, we had mentioned that this hyperbole was made even more remarkable - scandalous would be a more honest description - by the fact that so many of the leftist mayors in attendance were supporters and enablers of abortion and homosexual ''marriage'' in their home countries. The leftist bias of that conference's invitation-list was so pronounced that even non-Catholic commentators began to notice and speak out about it. 

A key initiator and organizer of that summer conference of mayors was the Argentinian Archbishop Sanchez Sorondo.

His Grace had already upset sincere Catholics, and countless other people of good will, by casually brushing aside their genuine concerns relating to the UN, population-control, abortion, contraception, sterilization, explicit sex-education and the emergence of a global order having no reference to God or traditional morality. In one flippant exchange Archbishop Sorondo suggested such people were merely right-wing extremists, by remarking: ''To see the Devil in the United Nations, which some on the right tend to do, is not the position of the Holy See'' (my italics).

Noticing a Pattern

Last summer, we highlighted seven randomly-picked examples from among those leftist mayors to demonstrate just why so many orthodox Catholics were feeling so concerned.

Just to give two examples of the agendas of those we drew attention to which, when also compared to the research of the renowned international childrens' rights lawyer Elizabeth Yore, turned out to be fairly typical, we wrote articles on Mayor George Ferguson of Bristol and Gustavo Petro of Bogota.

Bearing a large rainbow emblem, Mayor Ferguson has literally led thousands of people on Bristol's annual ''gay pride'' march. In May 2014, he also donned a long rainbow scarf to appear in an LGBT-Rainbow group publicity photograph in front of Bristol's city hall. When the US Supreme Court voted for homosexual ideology last summer, Mayor Ferguson gleefully retweeted the image of the White House illuminated in rainbow colours and bearing the misleading moniker, ''Love Wins''. He also publicly described the fact that parents in North Carolina were campaigning against the reading of the homosexualist book King and King to their 8-9 year-old children as, ''utterly depressing''.

Turning to Bogota's Mayor Gustavo Petro, it is worth knowing that he is a former member of the armed revolutionary M-19 group. His extreme leftist agenda is perhaps best evidenced by his claim that developed countries are not places where the poor have cars, but where the rich use public transportation... In common with many other of the leftist majors who were invited to Rome, Petro has long been an advocate of homosexualist ideology. He has even started an LGBT Advisory Council to implement ''anti-discriminatory policies'' and ''make bold policy'' in the field of education.

A common theme in Elizabeth Yore's own coverage of the leftist mayors was the evidence of their strong support for both abortion and homosexualist ideology.

Indeed, she even drew attention to New York Mayor De Blasio's long-term support for the Marxist Sandanista government in Nicaragua. Such issues will be more than familiar to readers who have read either of our two series of articles entitled, Red Dawn - Parts 1 to 4 or And Russia Will Spread Her Errors - Parts 1 to 3.

In the conclusion to our articles on the leftist mayors last summer, we noted that it was interesting, to say the least, that the organizers in Rome had access to a list of mayors who were all working so hard to implement such similar leftist and pro-homosexual/pro-abortion goals in such a wide variety of cultural situations. This caused us to wonder whether there were not plans to involve Rome in the advancement of a new model of global governance. Such thoughts were also encouraged by the frequent attendance of pro-abortion/population control globalists for conferences at the Vatican last year. 

More of the Same

The photograph at the top of this article shows the leftist US Presidential Candidate Bernie Sanders attending the recent Pontificial Academy of Social Sciences (PASS) conference in Rome.

As can be seen, in common with Pope Francis last year in Latin America, Bernie Sanders sat right next to President Evo Morales during the recent Rome PASS conference. It will be remembered that Morales is the Marxist President of Bolivia, who presented Pope Francis with the infamously blasphemous - and strangely portentous? - Hammer-and-Sickle ''crucifix'' last July.

It's That Man Again!

Perhaps it should come as no surprise that the secular Jewish atheist, and pro-abortion leftist, Bernie Sanders had been invited to address the PASS event by none other than Archbishop Sanchez Sorondo.

Or that Sanders met Pope Francis, even if only for a brief few minutes out of ''good manners''... That is the same Pope Francis who appeared to interfere in American politics by suggesting, during a flight in which he sent a message of support to the leftist pro-abortion US President Barack Obama, that Donald Trump may not be a Christian for wanting to protect America's national sovereignty.

Reds Under the Bed

In an article entitled Marxists in the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences, the Lepanto Institute's Michael Hichborn has drawn attention to the fact that Margaret Archer, appointed as president of PASS by Pope Francis in April 2014, has been using her key position to invite population control advocates like Ban Ki Moon and Jeffrey Sachs to speak at conferences in Rome.

Hichborn explains and demonstrates how Archer has been strongly influenced by Karl Marx. He also draws attention to the presence of other Marxist-influenced members of the PASS team and their relationship to population control ideology.

In relation to this, it is worth understanding that Bernie Sanders has just made some very incendiary remarks about the issue of abortion.

With video evidence, Western Journalism reported just two days ago that Sanders had said the following, during a Democrat Town Hall meeting: ''I have a 100% lifetime pro-choice voting record. I believe that not only do I oppose Republican efforts to defund Planned Parenthood, I think we should expand funding for Planned Parenthood. And it is no secret, that in states all over this country, in a dozen different ways, there are governors and legislatures who are trying to make it impossible for a woman to control her own body. I will use the Department of Justice to go after those states, in every way that I legally can.''

And Pope Francis thinks it ''good manners'' to meet and greet with a murderous character like this, without so much as calling him to repentance?

Carrying this theme forward, the pro-abortion ''Catholic'' Vice-President Joe Biden will also attend the Vatican tomorrow to give a presentation before the Pontifical Council for Culture.

After this he too will meet with Pope Francis for a cordial exchange; thus pulling the rug right out from beneath the feet of pro-life faculty members and students who upheld the Catholic Faith by protesting when Notre Dame University awarded Biden the prestigious Laetare medal earlier this year.

Stranger than Fiction

A few evenings ago, we watched videos of the 1995 version of Little Lord Fauntleroy, for a bit of light relief.

There is a sequence when a usurper pretending to be the real Lady Fauntleroy arrives at Dorincourt Castle and arrogantly starts to swagger about the place, insulting the family, oppressing the servants and selfishly running things according to her own destructive ideas.

As their ideals and very lives are rapidly turned upside down by this imposter, the real Dorincourt family and their faithful servants become divided and deeply unhappy. Due to the hierarchical structure and traditions of their society, there is very little that anyone can do to amend things. In a sense they are hindered by the very structures and values that once strengthened them. Any servants who complain about the new order are swiftly put in their place by superiors who, though naturally sympathizing with them, can in no way tolerate rebellion of any kind against the overarching order.

It is only when the true nature of this false Lady Fauntleroy is brought to light that the structures can function healthily again; dealing with her errors and allowing the real Lord and Lady Fauntleroy to joyfully come home. With their social recognition and return, authentic order and joy soon return to the house of Dorincourt.

Although this was in a sense only a sub-plot to the bigger story, I remarked to Angie just how reminiscent it all was to the present state prevailing in the Church.

We have a situation where Pope Benedict, though happy enough to appear in public for birthday concerts and the like, is kept shuttered away in a private apartment, while the very eternal doctrines that he defended are twisted and, at least in practical terms, over-turned. 

In the days of Pope Francis orthodox Catholic doctrine, and orthodox Catholic believers, are mocked, sidelined and oppressed; arrogant modernist prelates swagger about the place; and heretics of every kind waltz around the Vatican promoting ideologies dramatically at odds with the Catholic Faith - though right at home with the architects and architecture of globalist socialism.

Any faithful Catholics who try to complain soon feel the rapid correction of superiors and fellows who, hiding their sympathy, cannot countenance any rebellion of any kind - except for that most dangerous rebellion which is raining down from those above them. And aside from those promoting all manner of confusion, division and heresy, everyone becomes increasingly divided and unhappy...

Conclusion

Look, if all these guys were heading to Rome to learn more about Our Blessed Lord and His Holy Church, then we'd be as delighted as everyone else. Sadly, this does not seem to be the case.

Although some people think I have now ''lost the plot'' by speaking of ''Red Dawns'' and the Marxist infiltration of the Church, I suggest that one would have to be blind, wilfully ignorant or just plain stupid not to see what is going on all around us now. To see it and say nothing is something else altogether...

On the other hand, we also suggest that, whilst it is very important to stand up in relation to Amoris Laetitia, and things like Tina Beattie's diabolical promotion of abortion, it is also essential to recognise these things within the wider context described here.

We encourage readers not to lose faith, hope and charity. The fact that so many faithful Catholics feel and think the way they do shows how much grace Our Blessed Lord has already given them. We must remember that, if He had not done this, we would all be just as unaware/uninterested/unmoved as most others so obviously are today.

Further to that, Our Lord would not have revealed all of these things to the faithful if He were not also going to sustain them, come what may.

In conclusion, we encourage all our readers to carry out a discerning study of the prophecies of Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich; with particular focus on her injunction for all to pray for the ''church of darkness'' to leave Rome...
