Pope Francis, Danneels, Martini, St. Maximillian Kolbe and the Freemason Connection with the Synod on the Family

Godfried Danneels, a Cardinal of the Holy Catholic Church who has presided over its collapse in Belgium, conspired with others such as Kasper to undermine Benedict XVI and elect Jorge Bergoglio as Pope at what became known as the St. Galen mafia. He did this together with the late Carlo Maria Martini former Archbishop of Milan who stated that the Catholic Church was "200 years out of date" and supported changing the Church's treatment of the divorced. On Martini's death, the Grand Orient Lodge of Italy claimed Martini as one of their own

Over eight years ago, Tradition in Action, captured this image of the same Godfried Danneels who must have realised how damaging this would be to his agenda and requested it be removed. Danneels admitted that he wore the appropriate robes in the Lodge.

The translation of the above is as follows:
Not too strong a word to call this historical.
 Although it's true that Daneels had given a conference in a Masonic Temple in a white ritual robe, it's the first time that, as primate of Belgium, he had an exchange with a Grand Master of a Masonic Obedience [group of lodges] in the form of Bartholomeeusen, Grand Master of the Grand Orient of Belgium. The general public was not mistaken [that it was historical], and crowded into the Le Soir forum where not a single seat was left empty.
 Of course, this was not about settling some kind of conflict on a mat [...]. The debate, moderated by journalist Eddy Caekelberghs, was conducted under the theme From Anathema to Dialogue. Here we discovered two very different men (one rather dry, the other with a fuller personality) ready to encounter one another, to listen to one another, while at the same time affirming their differences. They were eye to eye, however, on several themes, such as rejecting the influence of religion on the political sphere. The Cardinal thus admitted to totally understanding why secrecy surrounds the works of Lodges.
 People wondered how the two participants would use their titles. The Cardinal spoke of “Mister Grand Master” and the Grand Master used “Mister Cardinal”. One can assume then that the titles of Most Serene Grand Master and Your Eminence [Monseigneur] would only be used by their... flocks.
 After the debate, the Cardinal and the Grand Master went together to [a couple of Catholic book stands] and then to [a Masonic stand] where the GOB had some of its books displayed. The Cardinal left with the latest publications of the GOB, including the title “Becoming a Freemason at the Grand Orient of Belgium”, as well as the very beautiful work “The Treasures of the Temple”, all offered by Bartholomeeusen.
 This debate will be broadcast next week on radio [...], and on TV [...] on... Easter Monday.

Michael Hichborn of The Lepanto Institute writes about St. Maximilian Kolbe witnessing a Masonic parade in 1917 which took place in St. Peter's Square in Rome. Signs proclaimed that "Satan must reign in the Vatican, the Pope must be his slave."

Hicbhorn goes to great lengths to state that there is no accusation that Jorge Bergoglio is a Freemason or is sympathetic to their agenda. Neither does this writer accuse the Pope of being a Freemason.

Upon his election to the Papacy, Jorge Bergoglio was praised by the Grand Lodge of Italy. On Thursday, 21 March 2013 in  Rome, Italy, the Grand Master of the Grand Orient of Italy expressed his joy regarding the election of Pope Francis.  

"With the election of Pope Francis nothing will ever be the same againWith Pope Francis, nothing will be more as it was before. It is a clear choice of fraternity for a Church of dialogue, which is not contaminated by the logic and temptations of temporal power"

Italian Fremasonry praises Pope Francis I -01"A man of the poor far away from the Curia. Fraternity and the desire to dialogue were his first concrete words. Perhaps nothing in the Church will be as it was before. Our hope is that the pontificate of Francis, the Pope who 'comes from the end of the world' can mark the return to the Church-Word instead of the Church-Institution, promoting an open dialogue with the contemporary world, with believers and non-believers, following the springtime of Vatican II." These were the comments of Gustavo Raffi, Grand Master of the Grand Orient of Italy, at the beginning of the pontificate of Francis, in the world Jorge Mario Bergoglio.

"The Jesuit who is close to the least ones of history," Raffi continues, "has the great opportunity to show the world the face of a Church that must recover the announcement of a new humanity, not the weight of an institution that closes itself off in defense of its own privileges. Bergoglio knows real life and will remember the lesson of one of his favorite theologians, Romano Guardini, for whom the truth of love cannot be stopped.

"The simple cross he wore on his white cassock," concludes the Grand Master of Palazzo Giustiniani, "lets us hope that a Church of the people will re-discover its capacity to dialogue with all men of good will and with Freemasonry, which, as the experience of Latin America teaches us, works for the good and progress of humanity, as shown by Bolivar, Allende and José Martí, to name only a few. This is the 'white smoke' that we expect from the Church of our times."
