Celibacy is always, shall we say, an affront to what man normally thinks. It is something that can be done, and is only credible, if there is a God and if celibacy is my doorway into the kingdom of God.

A man who has no regard for the words of Christ, or the decrees of His Holy Church, obviously will not take anything else seriously. It is in this way we must approach the news that Oscar Romero is going to be canonised.
If this doesn't tick all the boxes of a fake canonisation then I don't know what does. The killing itself is questionable at best in terms of being a martyrdom. The miracle itself is extremely dubious, if not entirely non-existent. The teachings of the man while alive were condemned by the Church and his cause was only put in motion when Bergoglio forced his way into the pontifical throne.
Into the mix, we can also throw Pope Paul VI who will also be canonised, possibly at the same event. His cause is only slightly less dubious, but the destruction he wrought upon the Church is worthy of a condemnation of the highest degree, and not an award, not even by NOChurch standards.
The interesting thing to note is that both of these men have been beatified and it would seem will be canonised by Bergoglio, all in the space of less than 5 years.
At this rate, we shall soon have people being canonised for getting out of bed. Sometimes, getting out of bed and going of to work does feel like a heroic act, after all...
In other NOChurch apostasy news, we have a poll measuring attitudes of Catholics in the U.S. to various topics, althouth most of the piece focuses on Bergoglio. A lot of people will focus on Bergoglio but I thought the most telling point was the following:
The share of U.S. Catholics who favor allowing gays and lesbians to legally marry has grown from 54% in 2012 to 67% in 2017.
In other words, the mass apostasy within NOChurch began long before Bergoglio began homosexualising and anti-evangelising through his voluminous seemingly-never-ending rantings.
In a discussion that I had some while back, it was mentioned that Vladimir Putin does not give full freedom to the Catholic Church in Russia. I am unsure what that means, as the Catholic Church in Russia seems to be under less oppression than in say, the U.K.. In any case, my response was simple:
If I was in charge of Russia I wouldn't allow the Catholic Church to operate either. This is a country coming out of 80 years of communist propaganda, with a president trying to rebuild the moral fabric of the nation. On the other side we have the Catholic Church, which in its NOChurch guise seems to do nothing other than promote homosexuality and feminism.
The survey of American Catholics confirms pretty much what I said then. Whatever NOChurch touches is worse off for it.
