Pope and the Jєωιѕн Vanity Fair



And the 'humble' Francis wins in Vanity Fair...

Many of us have had a suspicion that the humility of Pope Bergoglio was nothing but a propaganda weapon for Progressivism.

Now, a dramatic confirmation surfaces: The well known magazine Vanity Fair has placed him on the cover of its Italian edition (July 10, 2013), above, and chosen Francis "the man of the year."

 As a manifestation of approval regarding the revolution Francis is carrying out as Pope, the magazine affirmed: "His first 100 days have already placed him in the category of world leaders who make history. But the revolution continues."

 Among the celebrites consulted by Vainty Fair to make its choice was Elton John, the ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ English singer "married" to another man since 2005. "Francis is a miracle of humility in an era of vanity," Elton John said. "The Pope seems to want to take the Church back to the old values of Christ and, at the same time, bring it into the 21st century."

He hoped Francis would "reach out to children, women, and men who live with HIV and AIDS - often alone and hidden in silence."

 Thus, after being praised by the Freemasons and the Jєωs, Francis now is praised by one of the most extravagant worldly magazines.

 It does not look like a sign of fidelity to Christ, who declared that His followers would be persecuted by the world, or seem to be a good indication of humility, since the humble ones of this earth do not win prizes at the wordly fairs of vanity.

Below first row, Elton John in his wedding dress; second row, flamboyant at his 50th birthday with "husband" David Furnish.

 From the third row down, some covers of Vanity Fair maganize.

    The pictures are disgusting.  
     St. Francis Xavier threw a Crucifix into the sea, at once calming the waves.  Upon reaching the shore, the Crucifix was returned to him by a crab with a curious cross pattern on its shell.

    Well, I think David's hair turned-out gorgeous, but for Elton !?!
    Let's just say I was very disappointed with his coiffure.
    I definitely think he she should consider getting a new hairdresser.

  • The pope has no control of what magazine decided to put him on the cover.

    And good heavens, what is going on in those other pictures?

    That's certainly true, but it is disturbing that he is being hailed by all the wrong people, and at bottom apparently for seeming to give Catholic dogma and tradition the boot and upholding the contemporary image of Our Lord as some sort of feel-good social worker. I hope that's not a fair assessment of Francis, but that's certainly the popular perception of him (both by his fans and critics alike).

    Mr. Bergoglio  :shocked: I concur did not choose which magazine he is going to be on. This one is kind of a cheap shot  :judge:. However I think what the OP was trying to get across is that you will never see a St. Pius X sort of figure be on the front of the magazine! Just imagine that!

    It is a sign of how acceptable he is to the modern world, that his religion is quite compatible with all the other abominations which that magazine actually puts out.

    This is a very important point, you will not see articles of Gregorian chant, or the life of the Saints on Adult men's magazines... Business men and advertisers choose their pictures based on marketing principles. You do not try to send people contradictory signals, "Don't buy this magazine" and at the same time "Buy this magazine."
