The Pope's recent actions have sparked more conspiracy theories from Fátima secret extremists, some fearing Freemason influence and others suspecting the Pope is a Fátima true believer (someone who holds the Marian prophecies to be true and that they must be fulfilled with specific rituals to forestall an apocalypse) because although the Vatican said that it has been fulfilled, there are also some fringe Catholics who think that the Vatican is lying to them.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
