Fr. Altman: "I'm told that a lot of the bishops are mad at me because they're Democrats. Well, bishop, you should be thanking me that somebody finally stood up in your face and said, 'You're godless. You're dammed. Repent, recant and lead the people as you should.'"

From Traditio Fathers: What about Leo X? Wasn't he worse than Jorge Bergoglio?

The Roman papacy is nothing to be particularly sanguine about. In the eyes of history, about one-third of the popes have been vile men: fornicators, murderers, cowards, heretics, schismatics, and excommunicates. One pope was so bad that his successor had him disinterred, placed on the papal throne, his corpse beaten with a rod, and all his acts declared null and void.
There is still some contest among historians for who was, of them all, "The Bad Pope." Some say Alexander VI, a Borgia pope who reigned from 1492 to 1503. The College of Cardinals was preparing to depose him from the papacy for "piracy, rape, sodomy, murder, incest, and lechery," but his death intervened. Others say that Alexander's successor, Leo X, a Medici pope who reigned from 1513-1521, was worse. But neither pope changed one iota of Catholic doctrine or liturgy. In fact, both strongly confirmed traditional Catholic theology and liturgy.
And yet they say that Leo X was "The Bad Pope"! But let us compare the history of Pope Leo X to that of the apostate post Vatican 2 pope Francis-Bergoglio on the 509th anniversary of the commencement of Pope Leo's papacy on March 9, 1513.

Pope Leo X. During his cardinalate Leo followed the advice of his father, the Florentine doge, Lorenzo the Magnificent, "Il Magnifico," to be "honorable, virtuous, and exemplary," traits that the College of Cardinals at that time (and today) lacked.
Jorge (Gordo-- Spanish for obese) Bergoglio. Bergoglio has become infamous for taking Newchurch's (Church after Vatican 2 to present) Great Sex & Embezzlement Holocaust to a new level of which his predecessors never dreamed. He personally covered up and let off, without any punishment whatsoever, Newcardinals, Newbishops, and presbyters who raped, sodomized, and otherwise sexually assaulted children as young as six months of age. By doing so, Bergoglio under Catholic theological principles made himself an accomplice, equally guilty with the perpetrators, to these horrific crimes and sins.

Pope Leo X. Leo came to the papacy having received the best education in Catholic theology and canon law that his high status afforded him. He was ordained as a true Catholic priest at age 37.

Bergoglio studied under the corrupted Newjesuits (Jesuits of the "new", i.e., post Vatican2), who were even then starting to embrace Marxism and Liberation Theology, taking up arms against conservative governments in Latin America. Bergoglio said that he kept the book of a female Marxist leader under his pillow at the seminary, as his most beloved book.

Pope Leo X. Although he lived the extravagant style for which the popes of the time were known, Leo lavished his wealth on convents, hospitals, and other charitable works.
Newpope Francis-Bergoglio. The evidence now indicates that it was Bergoglio himself who engineered the embezzlement of nearly 500,000,000 USD from his Peter's Pence charity fund to finance his 2014 Great London Real-estate Fraud. He thus deprived the poor and needy from funds from the special collections from Newchurchers all over the world.

Pope Leo X. Leo was noted by his contemporaries for his spiritual devotion. He was dedicated to his daily recitation of the Divine Office and for assiduously conducting the Sacred Ceremonial of the Church with great solemnity. It was his desire that the Latin of the Divine Office should be pure, full of spirit and elegance, being made to comply with classical Ciceronian Latin, particularly the great Hymns of the Divine Office.
Newpope Francis-Bergoglio. Bergoglio has maniacally suppressed even the half New Order "Extraordinary" Mess of 1962 and has enforced the heretical rites of the Vatican II Anti-council upon his Newchurch, upon pain of being fired. Several Newcardinals and Newbishops have already been fired or sidelined for opposing his apostasy. He has often spurned the universal Sacred Latin of the Church and substituted for it the local vulgar tongue of Italian.

Pope Leo X. No pope has existed, even to this day, who supported Christian Humanism and classical Roman culture to the extent that Leo did. He was friend and patron to the greatest artists of Western Civilization, names that ring through the ages, like Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Bramante. Among his great legacies are the incomparable Raphael Rooms in the Vatican Palace. Leo's influence on the arts continues to this day. The historian Will Durant once wrote that Leo's "quantity of culture" had never been equaled, "not even in Periclean Athens or Augustan Rome.:"
Newpope Francis-Bergoglio. Bergoglio, the apostate Newpope, has maniacally destroyed everything Catholic in his Newchurch, whether it be the Sacred Liturgy, Catholic doctrine, or Catholic morality. He calls atheists and Marxists his "best friends." He calls conservative-leaning Newchurchers filthy names, like coprophagiacs (dung-eaters).

Pope Leo X. Leo was the great adversary of the Arch-heretic Martin Luther. His 1520 Papal Bull Contra Errores Martini Lutheri et Sequacium [Against the Errors of Martin Luther and His Followers] constituted an authoritative condemnation of forty-one propositions advanced by Luther, forbad any use of Luther's works, and decreed that they should be burned. The breach between Luther and the Catholic Church was finalized in 1521, when Leo issued the Bull Decet Romanum Pontificem to declare that Luther had been formally expelled from the Church by a major excommunication.
Newpope Francis-Bergoglio. Rather than condemning heretics, Bergoglio himself preaches the Vatican II Anti-council's heretical teaching called "Oecumenism," which teachings that "we all worship the same gods" and "all religions are true." He simulated his invalid/fake New Order Mess right under the giant visage of the murderer Che Guevarra.in Communist Cuba.

The Bad Popes seem more like Saints when compared to the colon compromised, morbidly obese, filth expectorating immoral apostate Francis-Bergoglio. who has told us Christ recited the Lord's Prayer incorrectly. . If these "bad popes" spent, in accordance with the standard of their time, grand sums on food, drink, and entertainment, but as much, if not more, on the poor and the sick, while at the same time lavishing their support on the world's greatest sculptors, painters, architects, and scholars, better their papacies any day over the likes of a depraved Bergoglio.

The big difference between the bad popes of history and our present pontif is that to their credit they did not try to change Church doctrine or usurp the Apostolic Tradition.

@Mathathias Maccabeus a healthy skepticism is always justified but in this case there must be evidence of a nefarious effort to destroy documents and letters, which there isn't.

@Mathathias Maccabeus a healthy skepticism is always justified but in this case there must be evidence of a nefarious effort to destroy documents and letters, which there isn't.

Sometimes historical sources were just lost as in the case of a well mentioned book of Aristotle by ancient writers that has never been found. Perhaps there is a well somewhere in Greece or Syria where the scroll rests in a clay jar waiting to be found as in the case of the biblical Nag Hammadi find. Another example being the revival of HEMA historical European sword fencing and martial arts of which I am a practitioner came about in the late 1990's with the discovery of a medieval extant text of the 14th century knight and sword master Johannes Liechtenauer at the University of Heidelberg library where it was lying forgotten for over 300 years. The discovery launched the search for other medieval sword fighting manuels which resulted in many new finds in Germany and Italy. HEMA owes its existence today of these exciting discoveries.

But, the argument that historical docs and sources were easily destroyed- a mere play on probabilities-doesn't prove or disprove anything. 🤔
