Judas’ Counterfeit Coin: Francis’ Error, Modernism’s Trap, and the Call to True Worship
Judas sold Christ for 30 pieces of silver—counterfeit coins worth zip. Why did Pope Francis flaunt Judas’ image in his office, hyped by L’Osservatore Romano?

Communion in the hand risks the same irreverence. Yet, saints like Augustine and Mary of Egypt show true repentance, not Judas’ despair.

The writer argues for addressing real issues within the Church rather than suppressing dissent, fearing divine retribution for unchecked corruption.
Uncanonically Elected? St. Francis of Assisi’s Quips Raise Eyebrows
