In regard to the Pope’s order to Catholic organizations to bring all investment money to the Vatican bank, perhaps they see a banking crisis coming and want to strengthen their own bank with these funds. If the Catholic organizations comply with these orders, it might also create a liquidity problem in those other banks.
I wonder if September/October might see a crisis in some large European or American banks.
We are, after all, entering the season when most bank crises have occurred in the past.
Meanwhile, the BRICS nations are moving ahead with plans to form an alternative reserve currency, backed by gold. We keep moving closer to the economic climax. Toppling Babylon is sure to cause a great earthquake.
On August 28, Pope Francis visited the tomb of Pope Celestine V, pointing to his great humility when he resigned after just 5 months as a pope in 1294. I don’t doubt his humility, because he was Peter Morone, a hermit more comfortable living in a cave than in Rome. He was elected pope on August 29, 1294. He died in a dungeon shortly after resigning the papacy.

I suggest that most Catholics in the know are thinking that the pope was pointing to the fact that Celestine V actually declared a Jubilee. He forgave the sins of the world by the power of his position as pope (whether we agree with this or not). I told the story here as part of the background surrounding Pope Francis’ declaration of a Jubilee year:

The point is that by honoring Celestine V, Pope Francis may be hinting of a coming debt Jubilee. Is this somehow connected to his order for Catholic funds to be sent to the Vatican bank?
