New sexual assault charges laid in Toronto's Basilian St. Michael's College School crimes

More arrests into the perversion at St. Michael's College School in Toronto.

A clearer indication that goodness, discipline and knowledge founded upon Our Lord Jesus Christ has been lacking in the families, Basilians, leadership and teachers at this place.

Just for fun!

"The faithful are at risk when they are offered confusion and superficiality in place of systematic thought. In short, the Vatican has become a theological Chernobyl. We are in dangerous territory.”

Pope Francis’ new comments on the death penalty are incoherent and dangerous

Pope Francis says that his innovative teaching “does not imply any contradiction” of the Church’s tradition but, one has to say reluctantly, it indeed does.

By Father George Rutter

Debate has always been an invigorating and constructive way of defining and refining views, assuming that the debaters have minds of probity and reason. This is increasingly absent in our culture, where subjectivism rules, and where there is only one debater, and his opponent is a straw man of his own construction.

Yet when one reads the “spontaneous remarks” of Pope Francis on various subjects of the day, the quality of reasoning and information of facts is so fugitive, that frustration yields to sheer embarrassment. There is, for example, the Holy Father’s remarks to youth in Turin on a hot June day in 2015: even a Reuters press release said that his smorgasbord of concerns, from bankers to the weapons industry to Nazi concentration camps, was “rambling.” While constrained by respect for the Petrine office, and aware of the strains that imposes, it is distressing to look for a train of thought and find only a train wreck.

One more thing ...

I am calling on Steve Skojec, Michael Voris, Frank Walker, Louie Verrecchio, Ann Barnhardt, Michael Matt and Hilary Jane Margaret White provided she behaves, and any other bloggers to meet in Toronto in February for a Blog Conference and to bury these hatchets.

Others?

If any are interested, write me at voxcantoris (at) rogers (dot com)

World Over - 2018-12-13 – EXCLUSIVE Raymond Cardinal Burke with Raymond ...

No more One Peter Five

Update: Sadly, Mr. Skojec has proved my point and has now sniped at me for this action. Clearly, if the combox is any judge, many share my views, for whatever they are worth. I have no time to debate with him, nor energy, Christmas is coming. He tagged me on a post and now I am inundated. I have removed the tag and blocked him. If anyone has an issue, feel free to write me at voxcantoris (at) rogers (dot com). God bless him but I'm done...

And the fact remains, Skojec has allowed abuse of Miss Barnhardt in commentary far beyond what is reasonable. 

ENOUGH!

The post below, "The Devil is dividing and people are blind to it," has had thousands of views. It was motivated by a derogatory Facebook post by Steve Skojec responding to something which inflamed him written by Ann Barnhardt. Rather than privately reach out to Ann, Skojec took after her on Facebook and the gang up has been disgraceful. It continues.

A few people, this writer included, have tried to point out that it has gone too far and overboard. Skojec refuses to see his continuing error and mocks when he is corrected.

In March 2015, Thomas Rosica attempted to undertake a vexatious and frivolous lawsuit. Steve Skojec, a man I did not know, never communicated with, wrote a snarky comment on his Facebook akin to "well, I've heard all about him" or something like that, it has been a long time to remember it exactly. I wrote to him privately to correct him. I believe that I know who was behind that and it is right up her alley.

Given the continuing situation, One Peter Five is now removed from the blog roll and there will be no future links to it. I can no longer recommend it, notwithstanding whatever good they have written. I have already removed Hilary Jane Margaret White's "What's Up With the Synod." 

I predict its demise within months. Not because of me, not at all, but because of its founder and owner.

Francis Bergoglio condemns all his predecessors over capital punishment

Bishop of Rome Bergoglio today condemned all of his predecessors for ignoring the "primacy of mercy over justice," and has doubled-down on his previous comments stating that capital punishment is "always inadmissible," emphasis added. Bergoglio was speaking before a delegation of the International Commission Against the Death Penalty, the full report can be read at LifeSiteNews.

It is heretical and it is unprecedented. Never before has a Pope contradicted his predecessors -- all of them. He even contradicts the LORD himself who ordered capital punishment many times in Holy Scripture. It is certainly fine for an individual to hold a position in opposition to capital punishment. However, the Church does not have the right to state that is "always inadmissible." 

Well friends, this is where we are today. It is all new and as that Masonic head of the Grand Orient Lodge of Italy said, "With Francis, nothing will be the same again." For surely we have all been taught recently by the great and powerful Rosica that Francis ''breaks Catholic traditions whenever he wants” because he is “free from disordered attachments."

Bergoglio is a danger to the faith. If a Pope can contradict all of his predecessors on one matter than why not more? Berogoglio then can also be contradicted, a future Pope can and most certainly will declare this man a heretic and possibly an anti-pope. His work will be anathematized. Diana Montagna at LifeSiteNews has done interviews on how Bergoglio, has "sawed off the branch on which he sits" by his words. 

Bergoglio is a danger to the faith!

This won't end well for Bergoglio.

May he repent before his last breath.

And may St. Joseph open his eyes or close them, as heaven sees fit.

The scandal of St. Brigid's Ottawa

A comment writer in the post below referred me to a video of a certain priest. That priest was once the pastor and "Superior" of the never erected Ottawa Oratory of St. Philip Neri at St. Brigid's parish in Lowertown. 

It was in this church, back in 1987 while working on Parliament Hill, that this writer learned to sing Gregorian chant and polyphony in the context of a properly sung Novus Ordo Mass. 

The treatment endured by those nine brave souls from Vancouver who ventured east to establish an Oratory in Ottawa was scandalous and a dark day in Canadian Catholic history. I imagine that Joseph Aurele Plourde had much to answer for at his particular judgement for the injustices caused to those men and the Catholic faithful who flocked to this church in Lowertown for the real Catholic faith properly interpreted after Vatican II. The thrust of opposition came from St. Joseph's parish, now a "gay" friendly centre whose pastor at the time was Douglas Crosbie, OMI, now the Bishop of Hamilton. Of the four priests, one has passed, two are now in Vancouver and one left the priesthood. Of the five brothers, two at least, were ordained, one in Ottawa and one in Vancouver.

This picture is St. Brigid's today. It was sold by the Archbishop of Ottawa for a paltry $450,000.00 for use as a secular arts centre and which can never be sold to any Catholic group. That was put in to keep it from ever falling into the hands of the SSPX.

Perhaps some day, I will understand how the selling of this Church and the bowing to municipal historical demands to leave the Altar Stones intact reconciles with the Pontifical Mass according to the Roman Missal frequented by ++Prendergast, SJ after such a tragedy as this.
