Pope Leo XIV (born Robert Francis Prevost; 14 September 1955) is the head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of Vatican City State since 2025. He is the first North American and the first Peruvian to be elected pope. He is also the seventh Augustinian Pope, and the first since Eugene IV (d. 1447) to lead the Catholic Church.

Born in Chicago, Illinois, US, Prevost spent the early part of his career there working for the Augustinians. He served in Peru from 1985 to 1986 and from 1988 to 1998 as a parish pastor, diocesan official, seminary teacher and administrator. He served as Bishop of Chiclayo in Peru from 2015 to 2023, and was general of the Order of Saint
Augustine from 2001 to 2013.

He was made a cardinal in 2023 by Pope Francis. He was appointed prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops and president of the Pontifical Commission for Latin America in 2023. In 2023, Francis appointed Prevost as the prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops, a prominent role that raised his profile as a potential papal candidate

Cardinal Prevost at Rosary: Let us entrust the Pope to Mary​



By Vatican News
“Let us remain in prayer with Mary Mother of the Church for the health of the Holy Father Francis,” said Cardinal Robert Prevost, prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops, as he led the Rosary for Pope Francis in St Peter’s Square on Monday evening.

At Monday’s Rosary – the eight consecutive gathering for the Pope’s health – Cardinal Prevost emphasized that Mary, “the Mother of Holy Hope, assists, restores, and consoles all those who have recourse to her help,” while expressing the hope that she might also be “a sign of consolation and of sure hope.”
The evening prayer gathering, which has been held each night at 9 pm, takes place in the presence of the image of “Mary Mother of the Church” placed on the porch leading up to St Peter’s Basilica. Cardinals, bishops, priests, men and women religious, and hundreds of the faithful have turned out each night to entrust Pope Francis’ recovery to the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Francis appointed him Cardinal in '23 and he becomes pope from the USA -who does not support securing our borders. Meanwhile he will live at the Vatican surrounded by a wall and anyone coming illegally is prosecuted.
Swallow that coincidence and Swallow that hypocrisy. :rolleyes:

Why is the Pope forbidden the Sacrament of Marriage?

To try to create sexual deviants .

Paul teaches that "forbidding to marry is a doctrine of devil's"...., and being that the CC is built not on the Bible and not on Paul's Doctrine, they have no issue with ignoring Paul's doctrine.
This is why they are so happy to talk about Peter and Mary.

Catholic Priest are forbidden to marry........they are not allowed to pursue the priesthood unless they agree to remain unmarried "celibate".

What is that?
That is "sexual repression" and a sexually repressed human being is going to find an outlet, because the sex drive that is God given is going to find a way OUT.
This is why the "cult of Mary" has 1500 yrs of "child abuse" issues.... and that is why the last 2 Pope's spoke about it, but never truly tried to resolve it, by changing the non-marriage doctrine, regarding the Priesthood.
This last Pope, Francis, has radically tried to change the Church's view on Homosexuality, by changing the CC rulebook to allow males with "homosexual tendencies" to now enter the priesthood .

Reader, do you know what a Homosexual is, actually?.
its a person who is engaged in same gender sex acts as their chosen sexuality.
How does this start?..
= "homosexual tendencies" in the HEAD...that are eventually pursued.....as a lifestyle.
So, If you allow 3000 new Priest into the "cult of Mary" in the next 6 months... who ALL have homosexual tendencies, and most are practicing it........then you have just created a RELIGIOUS homosexual factory., that will cause this cult to be even worse then it is already..regarding child molesting Priests.

Let me show you something, Reader.
Gay people.......lust to become anything in culture that involves breaking down moral traditions.......so, Young Gay men will be running to the Cult of Mary, to become a Priest and already are applying.

We'll see if this new "American Pope"........ changes the former Pope's consent of the new Priest recruits being allowed to have "gay tendencies".

I personally hope he flips it back to not allowing this and then the Cardnals and the Bishops who are gay, just revolt.. as then you'll get a real taste of the level of depravity that has climbed to the demonic top of the ladder regarding the "cult of Mary's hierarchical scum chain.

It is nothing against President Trump.
That is not to surprising. Christian concepts can be perceived that it is not good to fend for yourself. It is a wonder that all Christian leaders don's say we should live in tents and empty our bank accounts and give it all to the church and charity.

But it does not work in practice….an invasion of illegal immigarats would destroy our country and it would not be any better than where they came from and emptying our bank accounts would only help a little because poor people do not employee people.

Thank God the Pope means nothing in America's politics or national security.

Has Leo announced when deconstruction of the Vatican wall will commence?

I'll be pleasantly surprised if this one doesn't allow Priest and prepubescent boy marriages.
He's a liberal priest....not a true Jesuit or Franciscan.

Why is the Pope forbidden the Sacrament of Marriage?
Such a one is Married to God ! that's the issue. but ?

If one has a Wife then one is as One !

a Pope is to be a Saint ? should be one of such strengths.

We have seen RCC Priest who have Children to one woman or more and some of them have cast such out of their lives ! all good regards their standing within their Church ?

But I would be fine with one who does the right thing regarding any woman and his Children within the Church, being a Priest of that, that I was with, as my Priest for sure ?

But in regards being any freek show with regards Children Hell No !
If a Priest has lack of regard for his Child, he should be kicked out of the Church !

They should be alowed to be Married. but what did we get from Pope Frances, support for queer rights !

The RCC has been turning away real people who want to be a Priest for 30 or more Years now, and only for weak men or Gays to enter to become Priest.
I was informed by the Head of the Order, when I was going to seek the Fanciscan Order. that their was a big issue with Girls no end wanting to be corrupting the young men of the Order.
But the Order here was not worthy of St Frances at all. it had all add ons etc etc. and I was for St Frances. tho many within the RCC when they thought of St Frances, they were ignorant stupid idiots ! thinking only regards of Animals. childish regards with no depth of such a Saint.

So within the RCC you can join an Order that is more of your cup of tea ? get on better with and values that strengthen the Body more so, so one is more content in going, happy to and willing to go with joy ? get on better that way if you are invested in Christ Jesus and not just some dope who is asleep like dolt who intrest are boring lacking any seeking.
I am more for Dominican and Fransican Orders. that type of path that is more productive for me to be with ! but the waters were muddy, they did not want to progress they only wanted to regress and go to sleep, no drive ! just Kill the Body of Christ is all that I got back ! don't ask questions do not seek to speek to other Priest retired etc. It was nothing but boring ! they did not want one educated ! only indoctrinated. Period ! and that was back in 1993.
Most within the RCC knew nothing much truly in any depth, for they were not bothered with Christ Jesus at all, more about their garden etc nothing to do with seeking in Christ Jesus ! no zeal just boring, bring up the topic of Christ Jesus they would run a mile ! but that's in every Church denomination, for they do not have foundations, they are not born again ! and they never will be because they are only in a Religious rutt !

If I was a Priest I would want People to wake up ! not got to sleep.
Not to mention I hate the Socialist pandering, that takes place within the RCC and others ! One would think that it was a Socialist convention or Socialism was their god ! for sure, nothing but !
