If you consider conspiracy theories to be crazy, as is said incessantly by the media, etc., then why did the popes write all these documents on the secret society of Freemasonry prior to 1903?

I suppose the “empty” Masonic halls everywhere built since then indicate the Masons are no longer a threat to the Church and the world. On the contrary, Padre Pio said their number one mission is the destruction of the Catholic Church. They are only one of the many secret societies that run the world behind the scenes for the prince of this world.

When Pope Benedict XVI was asked what the greatest threat to the Church was, he replied, “It is Freemasonry.” Mary revealed through the locutionist Fr. Gobbi (a personal friend of Pope St. John Paul) that Freemasonry is the beast “like a leopard” in the Book of Revelation: “And I saw a beast rising out of the sea, with ten horns and seven heads, with ten diadems upon its horns and a blasphemous name upon its heads. And the beast that I saw was like a leopard, its feet were like a bears, and its mouth was like a lion’s mouth. And to it the dragon gave his power and his throne and great authority” (13:1-2). Another primary job of theirs is to usher in the Antichrist.

Good thing all the conspiracy theories are nonsense, so we can go back to sleep. All is well…
