Dr. Taylor Marshall’s ongoing conversion to post-conciliar “recognize and cope” Catholicism continued last Friday. In what seemed to be a desperate attempt to display his newfound credentials as an apologist for the Synodal Church, Dr. Marshall boasted on his podcast, without a hint of irony, that, “I met Pope Francis, my daughter rode in the popemobile … I was engaging with him online … and I was also told by two reputable sources that Pope Francis was shown and did watch some of my podcasts.” The most baffling moment came soon afterwards, when Marshall matter-of-factly told his viewers that when he was in Rome recently he went “over to Pope Francis’ tomb and I pray[ed] for him. And I ask[ed] him to pray for me.” Mario Derksen captured the moment and shared it on social media, expressing his own disbelief, “You can’t make this stuff up!”
