Thomas Cardinal Collins - There is now a Mass For You to worship the new god of scientism!

Thomas Cardinal Collins has declared that the dark period of No Mass For You will come to an end as of March 1, 2022. Miraculously, he has revoked his canonically illegal ban of Holy Communion on the tongue. However, those who follow the traditional norms for Holy Communion reception must come up last, shamed and singled out for all to see. They will be identified as those who Bergoglio attacks. Those “rigid, self-absorbed promethean neo-pelagians who ultimately trust only in their own powers and feel superior to others because they observe certain rules or remain intransigently faithful to a particular Catholic style from the past.” Collins and Bergoglio mock and segregate Catholics just as Justin Trudeau has done to Canadians. We are in the same boat as Justin’s racists, sexists, homophobic, transphobic yobs with unacceptable views. We don’t believe in the new religion of scientism and its covidist god.

"I have been clear throughout the pandemic that Covid-19 restrictions would only remain in place for as long as necessary,” wrote Collins, channelling Justin Trudeau and his unconstitutional emergency orders that would not last “for a minute longer than necessary.” They have the same master and it is not Jesus Christ. They have the same writers and they are not the Four Evangelists!

The other good news is that choirs can be restored, but all need to sing with masks on. What a joke. They state that they "follow the science." This is witchcraft!

Collins has betrayed Christ, betrayed the faithful and impoverished us with two years of this. He failed to stand up for the rights of the Church and the faithful and aided in our subjection to government diktat. He did not stand up for Canadians fighting for their freedom and did the bidding of the government in exchange for money. He is a disgrace. A failure.

May he enjoy his retirement at your expense at the luxurious Newman Centre Serra House after the contributors to the former were outraged at his original intention to retire there at their expense.

The man is as much an idiot as Justin. The good news is both will be gone within the year.

 

February 24, 2022

To all clergy and staff of the Archdiocese of Toronto,

I wish to extend my deep gratitude for your ministry during these almost two years of pandemic. These have been difficult and challenging days, but I am heartened by the witness and outreach exhibited by all of you in accompanying and caring for the Catholic community as we journeyed through this valley of tears. Please know that your work is deeply appreciated.

I have been clear throughout the pandemic that Covid-19 restrictions would only remain in place for as long as necessary. These restrictions have stayed with us for longer than we had hoped when we created the WorshipSafe protocols in the summer of 2020. While these measures have been challenging at times, it is clear that they have been effective in protecting the health and well-being of our parishioners, volunteers, staff and clergy. In particular, I thank the thousands of volunteers who helped to clean churches and assist with the many WorshipSafe guidelines while welcoming parishioners and maintaining a safe environment for all.

Thankfully, the vaccination rate in our province is high and the number of Covid cases with severe outcomes are declining. As a result, restrictions are gradually being lifted. As communicated earlier this week, beginning on Tuesday, March 1, 2022, capacity limits at our churches, including physical distancing requirements, will be removed.

Masks will continue to be worn in our churches until directed otherwise by medical and health officials (as throughout the pandemic some limited medical exemptions may apply).

In consultation with medical officials, a number of other restrictions will also be lifted as of March 1, 2022 – please refer to the enclosure for additional details.

In all of our efforts, let us remember to serve those who need us. The pandemic has been a long, stressful time for many and we should expect that the faithful will have different responses to the removal of Covid restrictions, ranging from joy to fear. Concerns, and even conflict, may arise as these restrictions are removed. I also acknowledge that clergy or staff will experience these same feelings.

Some parishes may wish to gradually increase capacity while others may return to full capacity right away. I encourage pastors to exercise prudential judgement to meet the needs of their community while also providing access to the sacraments to as many as possible. Similarly, pastors will need to discern how best to return their office operations to normal. Kindness and charity should prevail in the way we encounter and dialogue with one another. In these times, the people of God will look to you for guidance.

It is providential that we have reached this point where these restrictions can be removed at the beginning of Lent. This time of preparation for Easter is an ideal moment for parishes to undertake special efforts to welcome the faithful home once again. Many parishioners have not been inside the church for some time and we need to think of creative, pastoral and thoughtful approaches to welcome them back.

The Eucharist remains the source and summit of our life in Christ. For Christians, participation in the Sunday Eucharist is the central experience of the week, and that is the foundation for the obligation of every Catholic to be personally present at Mass every Sunday. Of course, if there is a legitimate reason (such as being sick) this obligation does not apply. Similarly, when pandemic restrictions for the common good and love of neighbour have prevented attendance, then the obligation does not apply, and it is understandable as well that some may feel hesitant at first about returning to personal participation. But as the restrictions are lifted, now is the time to encourage Catholics to return to physical presence at Sunday Mass, if not impeded for a legitimate reason, in keeping with our basic Sunday obligation as Catholics.

Further instructions on Holy Week liturgies will be distributed at a later date, but you should anticipate that most of our pre-pandemic practices will return for Holy Week. As part of this, I invite our priests to once again join me at St. Michael’s Cathedral Basilica for the Chrism Mass.

Thank you again for your patience and dedication to fostering a safe environment over the past two years. Please know of my ongoing support and profound gratitude for all that you continue to do.

Sincerely in Christ,

Thomas Cardinal Collins
Archbishop of Toronto


Updates to the WorshipSafe Protocols Taking Effect on

Tuesday, March 1, 2022

• All capacity limits, including physical distancing requirements, are removed from churches and parish halls. Parishes can gradually begin to remove floor markings and other signage as restrictions are lifted. Parishes may wish to continue with distancing at Holy Communion as a best practice for a period of time, removing all floor markings and distancing at the discretion of the pastor.

• Indoor mask use is still required for those over the age of two (limited medical exemptions apply)

• Holy Communion on the tongue can resume, but those receiving Holy Communion on the tongue should ideally be at the end of the Communion line

• The kiss of peace is still discouraged at this time. A bow or wave should continue to be used as an alternative

Holy water fonts can be refilled. Prayer books, hymnals, magazines, bulletins and votive candles can return to the church, if they have not already

• Altar servers and Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion can return to pre-pandemic duties

• Choirs and cantors still must be masked or three metres/nine feet from anyone else


• Reporting of rapid test results for unvaccinated clergy, staff and volunteers is suspended. Proof of vaccination is not a requirement to enter Archdiocese of Toronto churches

• Baptisms can return to pre-pandemic practices

• Confessionals and confession rooms can reopen, provided that both parties are masked

• Parish offices can resume operations in the manner that best suits the local conditions of that church, while respecting all normal applicable regulations, laws and archdiocesan policies

• The use of hand sanitizer upon entry to the church and before the distribution of Holy Communion remains a best practice and is encouraged. It is still recommended that health and hygiene signage remains posted in parishes at this time

• Meetings in parish halls may resume for those who may wish to do so – mask use is required

• Contact tracing and online Mass registration systems are no longer required. Parishioners should be encouraged to continue self-screening for Covid-19 symptoms and stay home if they have any symptoms

• Reporting all Covid cases is no longer required, but the regional bishops and Pastoral Centre staff are still available to answer Covid-related questions, help with the communication of serious incidents and arrange for visiting priests in the case of illness


• Parishes are encouraged to review updated procedures with volunteers and others who may be assisting with the celebration of the sacraments

• Parishes are encouraged to make an announcement at the beginning of Mass over the first several weeks of March 2022 noting the lifting of restrictions and reminders regarding updated procedures that may have changed

Edmonton Archbishop William Smith declares Canada's vaccine mandates as "Divine directives!"


The distorted minds of Canadian politicians and worse, the collective group of Canadian bishops continues. Late yesterday and one post below, we reported that the Bishops of Quebec have determined that they will not permit people into Mass without a vaccine passport. They are refusing to stand up to the diktats of the fascist Premier Legault. Now, we have the homily from Edmonton's Archbishop Richard Smith (rumoured to be on the terna for Toronto along with at least, Calgary bishop William McGrattan ) wherein he actually puts forward the proposition that the commands of the Prime Minister and the Premiers are "divine directives."

Smith's homily can be found at this link. Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time – Year C - caedm

Hell's gates are opened wide awaiting Quebec's Bishops as they bar the unvaccinated faithful from the Holy Mass

As if our dear Canada is not battered enough and the faithful left to the devices of tyrants in government the Bishops of Quebec have barred the faithful from Mass by acquiescing to the despotic Premier, Francis Legault. There is little one can write about this, the bishops have written their own condemnation. I do not pray for God's mercy upon them, I pray for His justice!

Letter from the bishops to the Catholics of Quebec (evequescatholiques-quebec.translate.goog)

Along with all believers, we, Catholic Bishops of Quebec, rejoice in the reopening of places of worship on February 7, 2022. We see in this a recognition, by public authorities, of the importance of religious gatherings and activities for a large number of citizens. It will thus be possible for the communities to gradually resume their activities and thus provide support and comfort to a large number of people.

The resumption of our activities is an opportunity to recall the duty of the State to respect, promote and protect religious freedom. The Declaration on Religious Freedom made during the Second Vatican Council is very clear on this subject and we endorse this conviction:

It is an essential duty for all civil power to protect and promote the inviolable rights of man. The civil power must therefore, by just laws and other appropriate means, effectively assume the protection of the religious freedom of all citizens and ensure favorable conditions for the development of religious life so that citizens are able to exercise their rights and to fulfill their religious duties, and that society itself may enjoy the goods of justice and peace flowing from the fidelity of men to God and his holy will. [1]

The reopening of our churches is the result of the many efforts of the members of the Table interreligious de concertation du Québec, with whom we are in solidarity and with whom we have coordinated our efforts to insistently ask the government to reopen places of worship as soon as possible. . We have also insisted that people attending our assemblies be exempted from the requirement of the vaccination passport, aware of the negative effects of its imposition on our communities.

We recognize that many believers believe that this requirement constitutes intolerable discrimination that deprives unvaccinated people of their right to religious freedom. This exclusion appears to them to be incompatible with the very essence of a welcoming community of believers, compassionate and open to diversity, with which we fully agree.

However, in this exceptional time of pandemic, Catholics have a duty to join their efforts with those of all members of society to ensure the safety and health of all. And this, even if certain measures affect for a time the exercise of certain freedoms.

The Declaration on Religious Freedom [2] challenges us on this subject. At number 2 of this text, we can read:

This Vatican Council declares that the human person has the right to religious freedom. This freedom consists in the fact that all men must be exempt from all constraint on the part of individuals as well as of social groups and of any human power whatsoever, so that in religious matters no one is forced to act against his conscience nor prevented from acting, within just limits, according to his conscience, in private or in public, alone or in association with others.

The declaration therefore recognizes that "just limits" can be imposed on religious freedom in certain circumstances. Moreover, the Council Fathers also consider it necessary to underline in number 7 of the same declaration that this freedom is not absolute: it comes with a responsibility with regard to the common good.

In the use of all freedom must be observed the moral principle of personal and social responsibility: the moral law obliges every man and social group to take into account, in the exercise of their rights, the rights of others, their duties towards others and for the common good of all. With regard to all, we must act with justice and humanity. [3]

Thus, for members of the Catholic community, the expression of religious freedom is not centered solely on individual rights and needs, but also on concern for the health of others. This freedom may exceptionally be subject to temporary restrictions for the common good.

The same is true for freedom of conscience. Indeed, conscience does not operate in a vacuum: it is formed in dialogue with different sources of moral wisdom and its decisions must be oriented towards others, in solidarity with others. As Pope Francis reminded us in an address to members of the Catholic media on January 28, 2022, “  we do not come out of a crisis alone  ” [4] . To do this, we must work together, together for others, especially those who are in need, and together in the service of the truth, which means seeking that which promotes communion and the good of all.

As humanity faces the risks posed by the pandemic to our societies, Catholics recognize that the government not only has the right, but above all the duty to intervene to ensure the health and safety of all. It is the duty of the State, even if the decisions taken are imperfect and questionable, made at the cost of scientific and political compromises.

While exercising healthy vigilance as well as our democratic duty to discuss and question certain decisions, we are challenged by the apostle Paul, who reminds us to never stop supporting our rulers with our prayers:

I encourage, above all, to make requests, prayers, intercessions and thanksgiving for all men, for heads of state and all those who exercise authority, so that we can lead our lives in peace and quiet, in all godliness and dignity. (First Epistle to Timothy 2,1-2)

This is why it seems reasonable to us, in the circumstances, to agree to certain compromises to contribute to the safety and health of all. For a time, we accept that the vaccination passport is required to access a place of worship, even if this measure upsets us deeply. However, we remain in contact with government authorities to remind them that this requirement goes against our beliefs and to ensure that it will be lifted as soon as it is safe to do so.

That said, we would like to affirm the concern of all the pastors of our Church to seek by all means to accompany and offer support to all those who for a time will not have access to our churches. Whether through individual meetings, through the broadcasting of celebrations, through outdoor celebrations or by any other safe means, we want all baptized persons to be welcomed and accompanied.

In these exceptionally difficult times for everyone, we join our prayer to that of Pope Francis: "  I ask God, concludes the Holy Father, that each of us may bring his little grain of sand, his little gesture of love .  [5] In no way do the constraints we encounter prevent us from loving our neighbour, from helping him, from offering him our friendship.

May the Peace of the Lord and his grace be with you!

Importance: High

Dear Justine, Doughie and Johnboy, Kieran “Mengele” Moore, Tammy and Cruella de Villa;

Congratulations and thank you. Do you see what you’ve done? You’ve brought Canadians together. Your fascist actions are ending because we have had enough. I’d had enough by June 2020. Your stinking lockdowns don’t work. Your so-called, vaccines, don’t work. It is clear to this Canadian that you have all sold out and have been bought off.

You are all wicked. Yes, no other word describes you, wicked. Evil monsters, fascists. Stinking cowards. I wonder how many of you politicians are perverts or drug pushers or malfeasants since you must be blackmailed as nobody can be this stupid. As for you medical tyrants, well, we all know that doctors in public health were at the bottom of their class.

To all you members of parliament and the legislature that stood by, well, good luck to you. You’re as guilty and as stupid as the rest of these clowns.

I am looking forward to the continued rising of Canadians and the end of your professional and political careers.

Why did Bergoglio meet with the head of Pfizer - twice?

Edward Pentin reports that Bergoglio of Rome met on two separate occasions with Albert Bourla, Chief Executive Officer of Pfizer Corporation. Unless he was discussing the faith with Bourla and seeking his conversion what business to the Vicar of Christ on Earth, (not that he really is, by his own declaration) why was he meeting with him? What did Bourla seek from Bergoglio? It is quite obvious by the public declarations in favour of the so-called, "vaccines" and the treatment of Vatican City staff by Bergoglio, Parolin and the rest of these vile clericalists.

The good news? There are white hats in the Vatican and Pentin knows them.

Professor Ehud Qimron: “Ministry of Health, it’s time to admit failure”

It's collapsing. 


Professor Ehud Qimron, head of the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at Tel Aviv University and one of the leading Israeli immunologists, has written an open letter sharply criticizing the Israeli – and indeed global – management of the coronavirus pandemic.

Original letter in Hebrew: N12 News (January 6, 2022); translated by Google/SPR. See also: Professor Qimron’s prediction from August 2020: “History will judge the hysteria” (INN).

∗∗∗

Ministry of Health, it’s time to admit failure

In the end, the truth will always be revealed, and the truth about the coronavirus policy is beginning to be revealed. When the destructive concepts collapse one by one, there is nothing left but to tell the experts who led the management of the pandemic – we told you so.

Two years late, you finally realize that a respiratory virus cannot be defeated and that any such attempt is doomed to fail. You do not admit it, because you have admitted almost no mistake in the last two years, but in retrospect it is clear that you have failed miserably in almost all of your actions, and even the media is already having a hard time covering your shame.

You refused to admit that the infection comes in waves that fade by themselves, despite years of observations and scientific knowledge. You insisted on attributing every decline of a wave solely to your actions, and so through false propaganda “you overcame the plague.” And again you defeated it, and again and again and again.

You refused to admit that mass testing is ineffective, despite your own contingency plans explicitly stating so (“Pandemic Influenza Health System Preparedness Plan, 2007”, p. 26).

You refused to admit that recovery is more protective than a vaccine, despite previous knowledge and observations showing that non-recovered vaccinated people are more likely to be infected than recovered people. You refused to admit that the vaccinated are contagious despite the observations. Based on this, you hoped to achieve herd immunity by vaccination — and you failed in that as well.

You insisted on ignoring the fact that the disease is dozens of times more dangerous for risk groups and older adults, than for young people who are not in risk groups, despite the knowledge that came from China as early as 2020.

You refused to adopt the “Barrington Declaration”, signed by more than 60,000 scientists and medical professionals, or other common sense programs. You chose to ridicule, slander, distort and discredit them. Instead of the right programs and people, you have chosen professionals who lack relevant training for pandemic management (physicists as chief government advisers, veterinarians, security officers, media personnel, and so on).

You have not set up an effective system for reporting side effects from the vaccines and reports on side effects have even been deleted from your Facebook page. Doctors avoid linking side effects to the vaccine, lest you persecute them as you did to some of their colleagues. You have ignored many reports of changes in menstrual intensity and menstrual cycle times. You hid data that allows for objective and proper research (for example, you removed the data on passengers at Ben Gurion Airport). Instead, you chose to publish non-objective articles together with senior Pfizer executives on the effectiveness and safety of vaccines.

Irreversible damage to trust

However, from the heights of your hubris, you have also ignored the fact that in the end the truth will be revealed. And it begins to be revealed. The truth is that you have brought the public’s trust in you to an unprecedented low, and you have eroded your status as a source of authority. The truth is that you have burned hundreds of billions of shekels to no avail – for publishing intimidation, for ineffective tests, for destructive lockdowns and for disrupting the routine of life in the last two years.

You have destroyed the education of our children and their future. You made children feel guilty, scared, smoke, drink, get addicted, drop out, and quarrel, as school principals around the country attest. You have harmed livelihoods, the economy, human rights, mental health and physical health.

You slandered colleagues who did not surrender to you, you turned the people against each other, divided society and polarized the discourse. You branded, without any scientific basis, people who chose not to get vaccinated as enemies of the public and as spreaders of disease. You promote, in an unprecedented way, a draconian policy of discrimination, denial of rights and selection of people, including children, for their medical choice. A selection that lacks any epidemiological justification.

When you compare the destructive policies you are pursuing with the sane policies of some other countries — you can clearly see that the destruction you have caused has only added victims beyond the vulnerable to the virus. The economy you ruined, the unemployed you caused, and the children whose education you destroyed — they are the surplus victims as a result of your own actions only.

There is currently no medical emergency, but you have been cultivating such a condition for two years now because of lust for power, budgets and control. The only emergency now is that you still set policies and hold huge budgets for propaganda and psychological engineering instead of directing them to strengthen the health care system.

This emergency must stop!

Professor Udi Qimron, Faculty of Medicine, Tel Aviv University
