“And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all of them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money changers, and the chairs of them that sold doves: And he said to them: My house shall be called the house of prayer; but you have made it a den of thieves.” ~ Matthew 21:12-17

Surely a holy and fearless man who loves the Catholic Church exists in the College of Cardinals?

If ever there’s a turning over the tables in the temple moment, it is now at the death of Jorge Mario Bergoglio.

Throughout his 12 tyrannical years, Bergoglio packed the temple of God with his den of thieves, who stole the innocence of nuns, children, and seminarians. His den of thieves robbed Catholics of the beauty and transcendence of the traditional liturgy. He and his cabal of thieves homsexualized and radicalized dogma, squandered finances, and perverted global politics.

The self-styled merciful one, the Buenos Aires bouncer, reigned with an iron clad fist, replacing prayer with pachamama, catholicism with synodality, faith with climate politics, and transparency with subterfuge.

He and his modern-day thieves sold out the faithful underground Catholic Church of China, drove them further underground, and replaced crucifixes with the photo of Chairman Xi.

Bergoglio and his temple money changers drained Vatican coffers for financial Elton John biopics, sketchy London real estate deals, and endless Vatican bank scandals.

Imagine Jesus’ fury over the boasts of the St. Gallen Mafia robbers who tampered with and rigged the 2013 papal election of Jorge Bergoglio.

Ponder Jesus’ anger over the tsunami of financial, moral, and dogmatic scandals in the Bergoglio temple for over 12 years.

Tremble at Jesus’ wrath bellowing throughout the Sistine Chapel at Bergoglio who protected and elevated predators, concealed secret deals, excommunicated holy priests and bishops, persistently pilloried the pious, shuttered Catholic Churches worldwide, dogmatized communism and homosexuality, embedded climate change into tenets, and hired heretics.

Where is the outrage? The time is long overdue for the tables to be turned on Bergoglio and his mitered minions.

So, I answer as a historian of the soul rather than as a theologian. I believe in Christ as I believe in destiny — through inner certainty, for His absence erases the map of the West.

I believe in Christ in a way unlike belief in the rising of the sun or the solidity of stone. Christ exists beyond the realm of empirical belief. He is a force, a historical current, the shaper of the Western soul’s most inward yearnings.

When I speak of Christ, I speak of a rupture in time, a spiritual singularity, the quiet thunder at the heart of Europe’s becoming. His birth was a shift in the very grammar of human consciousness. He taught us that history is not a repetition of seasons but a drama, a pilgrimage, a striving towards an end — and in that end, a new beginning. He stood at the intersection where eternity touched time, and in doing so, he reshaped the entire map of the soul.

Christ is the axis of European form, the living core of our cathedrals, our laws, our visions of justice and beauty. His image is not just a symbol among symbols. It is the cornerstone, the hidden architecture beneath our thought, our aspirations, our grief. Even when we turn away, we carry Him with us. In revolt, in silence, in doubt — He remains.

We may dress modern man in the garments of progress and statistics. Beneath them, he still weeps for Golgotha. Christianity gave Europe its depth — a sense of inwardness, of sin and redemption, of the sacred beyond the visible. And Christ, more than any system or empire, gave that inwardness form and flame.
