ROME (CNS) — An Italian Catholic priest has been excommunicated for having publicly committed “an act of a schismatic nature” while celebrating Mass at his parish near Livorno.

The priest, Father Ramon Guidetti, dedicated his homily Dec. 31 to marking the anniversary of the death of Pope Benedict XVI, whom he named as being “the true pope” who “never fled the barque of Peter.”

In his 20-minute homily, the 48-year-old priest detailed the qualities of “real priests” and cardinals versus those who side with “Bergoglio (Pope Francis) and his mercenaries.” He said the See of Peter is occupied by a “masonic Jesuit tied to a group of globalists, an antipope usurper.”


Bishop Simone Giusti of Livorno issued the decree declaring the priest’s excommunication Jan. 1 and posted it on the diocese’s website.

The bishop declared that Father Guidetti had incurred automatic excommunication, according to canon 1364.1 of the Code of Canon Law, dealing with offenses against the Faith and the unity of the Church.

To be honest, I don't think Frank is doing himself any favors in the popularity department by his ham-handed handling of all this. He's making himself look like a vindictive old man that's going to have his own way, or else.

Meanwhile, the de facto schism continues in Germany and elsewhere, and the Pope does nothing. All he really seems to do any more is affirm sexual oddities and express his personal distaste for Americans. :mad:
