that I get sent is a demand that I defend this or that claim made about "what Catholics believe."
In more cases than not, what is claimed is a universally or even widespread belief of Catholics is some BS thing about a "miraculous" image of Mary or Jesus in the weathering on a bridge abutment or a tortilla or some BS "prophecy" about the "end times."
Usually the claimed belief that they want me to defend is something I've never heard of or believed in, more often than not, when I look into it, it's a tiny cult that believes it or there isn't any actual cult but it's based on some online blog post or click-bait, generally in a video, these days "AI" slop that is there to get clicks and the poster doesn't even care about whether or not anyone believes it.
This post is because I like how Reverend Ed Trevors deals with some BS clickbait he was asked to comment on, claiming that someone I am rather skeptical of, Padre Pio, make one of those hackneyed "three days of darkness" prophecies - complete with offers of "genuwyne blessed bees wax candles" for sale - and what a load of BS it is. His own order who, as Trevors notes, deny that Padre Pio ever said any such a thing, and they have pretty much everything he ever did say, but there isn't any legal liability for telling the biggest whopper of a lie about someone like that. Here's what he said.
