Vincent Long, CFM, Bishop of Parramatta blasphemes the Holy Spirit in the name of sodomy

A reader in Australia, which is undergoing a debate and plebiscite on so-called "marriage" between people of the same sex, has advised of scandalous "pastoral letter" by Vincent Long, OFM, the Bishop of Parramatta. We've written previously about this so-called, "bishop" and the suffering Catholics of Parramatta.

on. 

In his letter, Long, a Franciscan, writes about now each should vote according to their feelings and not by being a properly formed Catholic.

He actually blasphemes the Holy Spirit when he suggests, that the "Spirit" is saying something through the "signs of the times" that would test the truth of Holy Scripture and Catholic doctrine.

The Holy Spirit is not guiding this debate in Australia for Catholics to suddenly accept marriage within the same sex. The Holy Spirit is not a liar, but this Bishop, Vincent Long Van Nguyen is a liar, a deceiver and no doubt, a homosexualist.

What does this stupid man think that two men do together in bed? Just as with James Martin, they set up "straw men" and want you to believe it is all about love. It is not about which tea-cup and what colour the his and his towels are or the draperies, it is about felching and rimming and fisting and sodomy and oral copulation and slurp ramps and glory holes and coprophilia (as Bergoglio would know about). This is what two men do together. This so-called Bishop cares not about the poor souls, but instead, does not warn the person who will fall in to this deep sin which will take them to Hell.

It is not about love. No faithful Catholic hates anyone suffering with same-sex attraction. But we hate the sin in them as much as any in ourselves. That, is love.

The vote in Australia will no doubt fall in favour of those seeking this change in the definition of marriage. 

This Judas will be held accountable before God for his dereliction.

Pastoral letter on the same-sex marriage postal survey

Dear sisters and brothers,

As I write to you, the national debate on same-sex civil marriage is in full swing. It is an issue that many feel passionate about and hence, it has potential to polarise the community. I appeal to all Catholics in the Diocese of Parramatta to conduct this dialogue with a deep sense of respect for all concerned, and for the opinion and decision that each person is free to make.

It is important to remember from the very outset that the postal survey is about whether or not Australians want the legal definition of civil marriage changed to include same-sex couples. It is not a referendum on sacramental marriage as understood by the Catholic Church.

Many years ago, divorce was legalised in Australia; but this change did not alter the law of the Church. Therefore, whatever the outcome of the survey or the eventual legislation by the government, the Church will continue to hold that marriage is a natural institution established by God to be a permanent union between one man and one woman, directed both to mutual companionship and to the formation of a family in which children are born and nurtured.

For many Catholics, the issue of same-sex marriage is not simply theoretical but deeply personal. These may be same-sex attracted people themselves or that may be the case with their relatives and friends. In such cases, they are torn between their love for the Church and their love for their same-sex attracted child, grandchild, sibling, cousin, friend or neighbour.

As your bishop, I wish to reiterate the commitment I made at my installation: “I am committed to make the church in Parramatta the house for all peoples, a church where there is less an experience of exclusion but more an encounter of radical love, inclusiveness and solidarity.” As a community of disciples, we seek to accommodate, accompany and care for one another irrespective of sexual orientation, marital status and situation.

I invite all Catholics in our Diocese to exercise our responsibility as citizens to engage in this community discernment. It should not be a matter of a simple answer Yes or No to the postal survey. It should be an opportunity for us to witness to our deep commitment to the ideal of Christian marriage. But it should also be an opportunity for us to listen to what the Spirit is saying through the signs of the times.

Throughout much of history, our gay and lesbian (or LGBTI) brothers and sisters have often not been treated with respect, sensitivity and compassion. Regrettably, the Church has not always been a place where they have felt welcomed, accepted and loved. Thus, regardless of the outcome of the survey, we must commit ourselves to the task of reaching out to our LGBTI brothers and sisters, affirming their dignity and accompanying them on our common journey towards the fullness of life and love in God.

Let us pray, discern and act with the wisdom of the Holy Spirit. Catholics, in keeping with the tradition of the Church, are asked to exercise their consciences, ensuring that they are informed as they come to exercise their democratic rights in the coming postal survey.

Yours sincerely in Christ,

Most Rev Vincent Long Van Nguyen OFM Conv
Bishop of Parramatta

James Martin, S.J. - a man crying out in desperation for attention and secretly for help

One could blog nearly daily on the ravaged mind of James Martin, S.J., and the perverse, corrupted doctrine he bleats on Twitter, Facebook and in various media publications. Martin has been covered numerous times on this blog. Lately, I've avoided writing and instead, just end up shaking my head in disgust and in sadness for what this poor sick man has become.

Given his volume of activity on social media, one could rightly ask, "Does this priest ever pray his Office, or Rosary, does he spend an hour in adoration?" I think the answer must be, "no." How can it be otherwise? If a priest was rising early to read his Office and praying, and ministering to souls, and offering Mass well and hearing confessions, how could he have time to be as active on social media as Martin? How could he write that which he does in what can only be described as a pathological, deranged and obsessive promotion of homosexualism and an outright rejection of the Church's teaching on the grotesque sin of sodomy, effeminacy and same-sex behaviour.

In a recent interview at Fordham University, Martin has gone perhaps further to reveal the severely deranged and poisoned mind to the point where it can only be concluded that James Martin of the Society of Jesus must be possessed by the Devil, Satan himself. No Catholic priest, servant of Our Lord Jesus Christ could every state that which this wretched man does without being possessed by the Evil One. 

Martin and his cronies who leave comments here will no doubt call me a "hater." 

The truth is this; the real "hater" is James Martin. Martin hates himself, he hates Christ and His Church and the truth. He hates the men trapped in a sorrowful and suffering life of homosexuality. These men deserve our love because they are children of the same God. They deserve the truth, that the God who loves them does not expect them to live as they do. They were not born this way. Those who believe, this, who promote this, are liars.

In the Fordham interview, with Patrick Hornbeck, the Chairman of the Department of Theology, Hornbeck makes it clear that he is "married" to his "husband." How has Timothy Dolan, Cardinal Archbishop of New York not removed this man from his position? Let him sue. Take the lawsuit, pay him if you have to, but get him out.

In the interview, Martin states:

“He (a former Religious and friend of Martin) came out and has been with his partner for 20 years. His partner has a fairly serious illness that is at times extremely serious and requires a lot of attention. Mark has cared for him for, I think, 15–20 years now. And one of the questions I would like the institutional Church to reflect on is: 'Is this not love?'

"I have a hard time imagining how even the most traditionalist, homophobic, closed-minded Catholic cannot look at my (active homosexual) friend and say, 'That is a loving act, and that is a form of love that I don't understand but I have to reverence."

Martin dares to use the word "reverence" which has as a synonym, "adoration," something due only to Almighty God and states that we need to use this proper reverence to the people who practice acts of depravity. 

Let us be clear, Martin has set up a "straw-man." He wants you to believe it is all about "love." Of course, one friend should care for another in his sickness, that is what we should all do. But notice how this deceitful priest blends that idea of fraternal love with sodomitical debauchery. What does he think these two men do? It is not about "love."

Where are his Superiors?

James Martin is on his way to Hell. He must repent publicly of his grievous error and do penance. He must live a life of quiet reparation for what he has done to so many souls. Objectively speaking, if James Martin dies tonight, he will end up in Hell. He will be greeted there by those whom he deceived and joined sooner or later by those who failed to correct him.

Martin may interpret this as hate. The truth is, it is out of love for him and his priesthood that this is written.

Bergoglio says we will "go down." Well, some will go down - straight to Hell

As has become the custom from before Pope Bergoglio, no pope can travel anywhere without getting back on the aeroplane and having a presser, though this one has made a real "art" of it. Gosh, it makes one long for simpler days, you know, before popes decided that the world couldn't stand it if they weren't glad-handing and creating a whole damn economy around their star power or when news of the pope's death took a decade to reach the local parish. 

It's amazing how suddenly, when the southern United States has been hit with a hurricane or two, some have gone batty thinking this has never ever happened before. Oh, but of course, it's global warming, I mean, climate change.

"If we don't turn back, we will go down, you can see the effects of climate change and scientists have clearly said what path we have to follow. If someone is doubtful that this is true, they should ask scientists. They are very clear. These are not opinions made on the fly. They are very clear. Then each person can decide and history will judge the decisions,"

So says Bergoglio. What a bunch of lying bunk. What stupid drivel, and I am expected to believe that this Peronist, this politician, this NGO hack is the Vicar of Christ? Believe scientists? Junk science! So, is it now a sin in the Church of Bergoglio to refuse to bow to this fallacy? There are fossils of palms in Greenland and northern Alberta, what the heck does that tell us?

Climate changes, and then changes back and then to something else again.

Irma is the first Hurricane to hit Florida since Wilma, and that was in 2005. The worst in the last few decades were Andrew in 1992 and Charlie in 1994 and not even they compared to the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935 and were generally equal to the pre-named storm of 1919, Great Miami in 1925 and Okeechobee in 1928. In Texas, the most hurricanes and cyclones took place in the decade of the 1940's followed by the 1880's. In the seventeen years since 2000, the total is still less by one, compared to those of the 1880's. In 1900, 8000 souls perished in Galveston, Harvey has claimed 70, and may they rest in peace.

Yet, we are to believe that these hurricanes in Texas and Florida are a result of climate change. Well, it must be true because the Bergoglio of Rome said so.

Listen, Pope Bergoglio is entitled to his own opinions just like anyone else, but the one thing that this man is not entitled to, are his own facts; and his opinions mean nothing, nothing, nothing!

It's amazing how the world will listen to every word this bleating from this Pope Bergoglio's mouths off with when it comes to "climate change" but won't hear it when he speaks on those rare occasions of abortion and gender dysphoria. Well, one can understand that since he appoints abortionists to Vatican commissions and goes out of his way to be photographed with "transvestites." The media are as confused about Bergoglio as he is himself.

Speaking of "pro-life," he also says that Trump cannot be, if he gets in the way of DACA. Don't even get me started on that one.

Such poppycock, coming from a man whose carbon footprint in the last four years has exceeded this writer's entire carbon lifetime.

Just once, I would like a presser with Bergoglio to go like this:

Media:    Holy Father, there is so much strife in the world, so much suffering, what do you have to say about this?         

Pope Francis: I would say that the world has lost its bearing because it is not focused on the reality of the God-man, Jesus Christ. When the first Pope, St. Peter, walked on water to meet the Lord he started to sink. He took his eyes off of Jesus and he sank. It is only when we have our eyes and our hearts and our minds focused on this Jesus, this Christ, this true Saviour of the World, that we do not sink, do not "go down." The world is groaning for a lack of Christ, but it is because the world has rejected Him. Jesus Christ is God come to earth in the flesh, born at Bethlehem of a woman named Mary, a virgin. This is real, this is true. He came for his own who rejected Him, and he came for all, you and me. He came for Jew and Gentile. He came for those who call themselves Moslem, and Hindu and Buddhist. He came for those who believe in Him but follow their own way apart from his One, True Church and those who do not believe in Him or the One who sent Him. He came for all, but many reject Him. Come to Him. Come to Jesus, let him free you from your sins and the world from its suffering, because, there is no other Way, no other Truth and no other Light. There is no salvation apart from Jesus Christ and the Church which he founded for the salvation of the world.

 That is what this Pope should say. That is what any Catholic should say.

Eternal memory and rest unto their souls

 

More liturgical wars for the "bastard rite" - one more reason to leave it behind for Tradition

With a stroke of the pen, Pope Bergoglio has struck down the work of John Paul II and Benedict XVI in Liturgiam Authenticum and the Third Typical Edition of the Roman Missal.

https://rorate-caeli.blogspot.com/2017/09/breaking-motu-proprio-magnum-principium.html

https://www.americamagazine.org/faith/2017/09/09/breaking-pope-francis-gives-local-bishops-more-responsibility-mass-translations

No doubt, as a payback to the Germans and others who simply refuse to translate, "pro multis" as "for many" and continue to disobey the order of Benedict XVI to translate it properly, Bergoglio has thrown the matter of translations to the bishops. It would seem unlikely that the English speaking bishops, after all the time, stress and money spent since 2011 on the more correct translation of the Novus Ordo Missae, would return to the former, but they may allow it as an option. The Third Edition of the Roman Missal is still only in Latin and English. All others, to this day, use the 1974 Missal.

Make no mistake, along with the deviations allowed in Amoris Laetitia from place to place, this action by the great liturgist Bergoglio will lead to an even greater disunity within the Catholic Church.

Whether or not Bergoglio has the right to do this is not the question. It is a notorious act on the part of this man and his filthy minions. The photo below is of this Bergoglio in Colombia. Look at him, he bypasses the kneeler to stand before the Lord Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament.

How can he do this? How can this man not kneel?  Yet, Catholic modernists, as is already happening on Twitter, will overflow with effervescent praise for this divisive and destructive action on the part of this man.

It is just one more reason to abandon the bastard rite. A so-called "Mass" that is different from country to country, diocese to diocese, parish to parish and even within the parish from different priests. Notwithstanding the narrow line that makes it valid, this rotten fruit of Paul VI is unstable, it is irreligious, it is not proper worship to Almighty God, it is horizontal, man-centred, ecumenical and masonic.

This Bergoglio will not stop at this, it is only the beginning.

Get out of it and get to the traditional Mass even if that means that the only choice is the Society of St. Pius X. Your faith and that of your loved ones depends upon it.

Michael Coren declares that Vox Cantoris makes a "heavy mark!"

My old friend and brother Knight of Columbus, Michael Coren, is up to it again. I dare say there is some kind of obsession that causes him to come back so often and to ruminate on us. Clearly, we bloggers have more influence than perhaps we thought and we are leaving a "heavy mark."

Back when we were friends, Michael would telephone me often at home and on mobile to chat and prod me about Catholic issues leading up to and after his book, about Catholics being "right." What a maroon! If we were "right" then, we didn't suddenly become wrong. I sat in his home, had coffee and even booked him to speak at a conference and got him other gigs. I helped put money in his pocket. Sorry, for that, friends. Coren would often telephone me frequently to chat, he often speculated on which Toronto priest was "gay" and if I had any proof of it. This was a real interest for him. At more than one public event, he asked me to do some "advance" and distraction from certain people whom he did not like to receive questions from. One specifically at the University of Toronto I regret doing because the good woman has passed to her eternal reward and was right about her views and advice to me on Michael. May dear Ursula forgive me.

One day, after his departure from the faith, he did an interview on video with the CBC. In that video, the CBC flashed a Tweet with my name on it with Coren alleging that I wrote something to him. It was designed to look as if I Tweeted a certain comment. I had not. Coren took a private email which I sent to him, something I forwarded to him without changing the subject line, it clearly began with, "re:"  It was an email from that same Ursula, expressing grief over Michael's comments supporting Hillary Clinton and her stance on abortion. The subject line referred to the "pure evil" of Clinton's statement and by extension, Coren's seeming endorsement of that opinion. Because all of us, including Ursula, had known Michael and his wife from The Toronto Oratory. Ursula was grieved, as were all of us, over what was happening with our old friend. Coren took that email, as if it were a comment from me and attached my name to it, and made it look as if it were my Tweet. Yet, I do not Tweet under my name, but under, Vox Cantoris and there, on The National, was my name for all to see. I was being slandered and mocked in a very public way. A private email from me to Michael Coren was used to slander me by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, a "crown-corporation" which, as a Canadian, I theoretically own shares in. It was broadcast on The National, Canada's national evening news program on the CBC, nationwide and on YouTube, Facebook and Twitter. I was accused of stating something which I did not state. That ,,Michael Coren was "pure evil."

I filed a complaint with the CBC ombudsman. The action was pretty quick. The Executive Producer of The National withdrew the video from their web page, Facebook and Twitter and after it was proved that Coren could not prove to the CBC that I said or wrote the words I was alleged to have written, the video with the false accusation of words by me, was edited out and the CBC apologised.

As a certain cleric learnt, if you're going to come after this writer, you need to get up early in the morning, and I'm up before dawn!

Michael has now paid me, and even more, my good friend at Toronto Catholic Witness, Barona, with a great compliment; and for that I thank him and am pleased to let him know that all is forgiven.

In a recent article on The Walrus, Coren declares:

"Even more blatant than Lifesite are blogs such as the Ontario-based Vox Cantoris and Toronto Catholic Witness, with less significance but still making a heavy mark."

Indeed, Michael, on this point you, along with us Catholics are "right." 

Oh and do me this favour would you? Donate one dollar for every hit this sends to your article to Courage Toronto or Campaign Life Coalition for the publicity I am sending back to you.

After all, it would only be "right."

The purge of faithful Catholics from the Church and the even greater need for calling out of error

Professor Josef Siefert has been expelled by the Church from the philosophical institute which he had founded, which came under control of the Archbishop of Granada. Dr. Siefert was a faithful Catholic and a respected philosopher with an intellect that would put the likes of Bergoglio and his minions to shame. His crime? State the obvious - that Jorge Bergoglio has promulgated a heretical document known as Amoris Laetitia.

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/another-plea-to-pope-to-correct-heretical-statements-in-amoris-laetitia

https://rorate-caeli.blogspot.com/2017/09/the-seifert-case-who-is-separating.html

In Columbia, where Beroglio now travels, another faithful Catholic, Jose Galat, has been excommunicated for questioning Bergoglio's legitimate claim to the Chair of Peter and for exposing his pernicious heresy.

https://onepeterfive.com/colombian-criticizes-francis-excommunicated/

We are now facing a new "Inquisition."

It is unacceptable that faithful Catholics who question the obvious heresy and insult spouted from the mouth and mind of the Bishop of Rome and those minions surrounding him, should be persecuted and "excommunicated," by men who clearly, hate the faith, hate the faithful and hate the Divine Founder, Our Lord Jesus Christ. They are Arians at best and most likely, Satanists. They either don't believe that Jesus is God or they do and they seek to destroy His Church and His faithful because of it.

My Catholic brothers and sisters, you must wake up to the evil that has come upon the Church, you must keep the faith and not be intimidated by these faithless, filthy men. There time is very short and we will need to pick up the pieces and rebuild, and that we will, with the help and grace of the Lord whom we love.

Cardinal Caffarra, may he rest in peace

Cardinal Caffarra, has died suddenly. While said to be ill, his death seems to have come as a surprise. May he rest in the peace of Christ, whom he loved.

The Cardinal is the second of the four "dubia" Cardinals to pass away in the last few months, the first being Cardinal Meisner.

Raymond Cardinal Burke has issued a statement:

“With the death of Cardinal Carlo Caffarra the Church has lost the earthly presence of an exemplary priest, Bishop and Cardinal. Having enjoyed the great gift of knowing Cardinal Caffarra over many years and of working very closely with him during the these last years in the safeguarding and promoting of the Church’s constant teaching and practice regarding Holy Matrimony and the Holy Eucharist, I can testify that he was completely and solely inspired by a deep and pure love of Christ and of Christ’s Mystical Body, the Church. His purity of heart was always evident to me and was an unfailing inspiration. His knowledge of the Church’s doctrine and discipline was the fruit of years of study, which he continued until the end, for the sake of giving the best possible care to souls. Just recently, he related to me how he was studying the texts of Blessed Cardinal John Henry Cardinal Newman on conscience in preparation for a public lecture in England. While I mourn deeply the loss of his earthly presence, I am confident that his love of Christ and of the Church will continue. I count upon the help of his prayers in carrying out my weighty responsibility as a teacher of the faith and a doctor of souls. May the good and faithful Cardinal rest in peace.”

Its seems to this writer that Cardinals Burke and Brandmuller should avail themselves of food-tasters, body-guards and bullet vests under their albs and if you think I'm wearing a tin-foiled hat then you've not studied history.

Of Bergoglian earmuffs and socks

From the great liturgical mind of Jorge Bergoglio from the latest interview by this man thrust upon the Seat of Peter by evil men.

"On the contrary, traditionalist ideology has a faith like this [the pope makes a gesture of putting on earmuffs]. “The benediction should be done like this. In Mass, fingers should be like this, with gloves, like before …” What Vatican II has done with the liturgy has been something truly grand, because it has opened worship of God to the people. Now the people participate." 

Ideology? 

If anyone has an ideology it is the modernists and liberals who hate Christ, hate the tradition of the Church and even resent the few crumbs that Ratzinger sprinkled to comfort a few.   

What a stupid, ignorant, boorish man. 

Rather than ear muffs over his hears perhaps he should try a sock in the mouth.

Cormac Murphy-O'Connor lobbied to elect Bergoglio

The former Archbishop of Westminster, Cormac Murphy-O'Connor has died. It has long been known that he was part of the St. Gallin Mafia with the pervert protecting Daneels from Belgium, a mafia that worked to elect Bergoglio in 2005 and then succeeded upon his cowardly renouncement of the papacy. Now, a new book reveals that Murphy-O'Connor lobbied Cardinals of the Commonwealth to elect his friend from Buenos Aires - except for two, Canada's Marc Ouellet and George Pell from Australia.

As it is unseemly to speak ill of the dead, I shall leave it at this. Murphy-O'Connor has now met our Lord Jesus Christ. We should hope that the Lord was merciful to him as we hope he shall be to all of us.

Robert Mendick, Chief Reporter

3 SEPTEMBER 2017 • 9:30PM

It is a tale every bit as intriguing as the plot of Conclave, Robert Harris’s best-selling thriller set during a fictitious papal election.

For it has emerged that Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O’Connor, the former Catholic archbishop of Westminster who died last week, intervened in the last Conclave to ensure his friend was elected Pope Francis.

In the days before the 2013 vote, Murphy-O’Connor co-hosted a reception at the British embassy in Rome to lobby support for Cardinal Bergoglio, the then progressive archbishop of Buenos Aires.

According to a new book, Murphy-O’Connor invited cardinals from the Commonwealth but deliberately left off the invitation list two powerful but conservative clerics - Cardinal Ouellet from Canada, who had been a frontrunner, and Cardinal Pell from Australia.

The plan, which succeeded, was to persuade the cardinals of the need for a liberal pope without interference from the senior conservatives.

The book by Catherine Pepinster, the former editor of The Tablet, details how embassy officials left the room to allow Murphy-O’Connor time to persuade the cardinals of the importance of voting for Bergoglio.

Murphy-O’Connor had been dismayed when Pope Benedict XVI was elected at the previous conclave and was determined to avoid another conservative Pope.

Ms Pepinster, whose book The Keys and The Kingdom: Britain and the Papacy from John Paul II to Francis is published next month, said: “Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O’Connor was a popular, genial man but beneath his jovial exterior was someone of great canniness who knew exactly how the Vatican worked.

“And that canniness meant he ensured his friend was elected Pope Francis - a pope who has made a huge impact on the Catholic Church and the world. There have been kingmakers in history; Cormac Murphy-O’Connor turned out to be a popemaker.”

Pope Francis was elected on March 13 2013, the second day of the conclave, on the fifth ballot. He need two-thirds of the 115 votes to win. It is thought the votes delivered by Murphy-O’Connor were instrumental. The two men became close friends after meeting for the first time when they were made cardinals on the same day by Pope John Paul II.

In 2013, Murphy-O’Connor was too old to vote under Vatican rules, but he travelled to Rome, like many other elderly non-voting cardinals, to participate in talks, called congregations, before the conclave.

Shortly after his elevation, Pope Francis was overheard telling Murphy-O’Connor: “Tuo e colpevole”, translated as “you’re to blame”.

Does Bergoglio of Rome support legalised and recognised same sex civil unions?

Has Bergoglio endorsed so-called "same-sex civil unions?"

“Marriage between people of the same sex? ‘Marriage’ is a historical word. Always in humanity, and not only within the Church, it’s between a man and a woman… we cannot change that. This is the nature of things. This is how they are. Let’s call them ‘civil unions.’ Lets not play with the truth. It’s true that behind it there is a gender ideology. In books also, children are learning that they can choose their own sex. Why is sex, being a woman or a man, a choice and not a fact of nature? This favors this mistake. But let’s say things as they are: Marriage is between a man and a woman. This is the precise term. Lets call unions between the same sex ‘civil unions’.”

The "Gay-Catholic" mafia lobby, New Ways Ministry seems to think so.

https://newwaysministryblog.wordpress.com/2017/09/02/pope-francis-says-he-supports-civil-unions-for-lesbian-and-gay-couples/

So what is it Jorge. Do you support legalised same sex civil unions?

Only one way out of this mess

The Church is in its gravest crisis since the Arian heresy. I would argue that the very Arian heresy is back again with us today. It is simply inconceivable that the leaders of the Church today actually believe that Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ, is God. If they truly believed it, they would not have promulgated Amoris Laetitia nor would homosexualists such as James Martin, S.J., and countless others, be allowed to spread their poisonous bile by their Superiors.

Earlier today, the evil leaders of the northern part of the Korean peninsula explodes an underground test of a hydrogen bomb five times more powerful than what was dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki; the earthquake which followed was nearly 6.3 on the Richter Scale. People suffer losses of life, homes, jobs and normalcy in Texas, and the media is worried about stiletto heals. We are truly deluded if we think we can get out of this on our own.

Bergoglio praises Communists, again! They are the "real Christians"

Do you remember when popes confirmed their brothers in the faith and safeguarded it to pass it on to the next generation? What a time that was, when speaking to Catholic cardinals was more important than sitting for interviews with members of the secular media. 

Bergoglio of Rome has given another series of interviews, this time to a French writer, Dominque Wolton, reportedly, an agnostic. This them of course is not new to this Bergoglio; he often submits himself to be interviewed by the atheist Eugenio Scalfari of La Repubblica, better that than meeting with ones Cardinals to answer to ones heresy and undermining of Biblical truth and Catholic doctrine.

There is so much to unpack in this book of Bergoglian bile. much of it seems like a rehashing of previous statements, the youth and rigidity being an example, but we'll save that for next time.

The post below is from November 11, 2016. Bergoglio had just made a revealing statement about communists being real Christians. Well, if once was not enough for this deranged Peronist who has been placed by evil men on the Chair of Peter, then let's just double-down on all that communist love, shall we?

Just because a communist state gives "free" health care, doesn't make it Christian. 

Referencing a communist activist who greatly influenced Bergoglio, Esther Bellestrino de Careaga, he said:

"She taught me to think about political reality, ... I owe so much to this woman, I was told once, 'But you are a Communist!' No, the Communists are the Christians. It's the others who stole our banner!"

The post below shows the consistency of this deranged and dangerous man.

May God deliver us from this evil  man and send us a truly holy Pope who will "restore all things in Christ."

And yet, we would He? Do we deserve it?

Alas, a chastisement is more likely.

BERGOGLIO PRAISES COMMUNISTS

Original published 11/11/16

Scalfari: You told me some time ago that the precept, “Love your neighbour as thyself” had to change, given the dark times that we are going through, and become “more than thyself.” So you yearn for a society where equality dominates. This, as you know, is the programme of Marxist socialism and then of communism. Are you therefore thinking of a Marxist type of society?

Bergoglio: “It has been said many times and my response has always been that, if anything, it is the communists who think like Christians. Christ spoke of a society where the poor, the weak and the marginalized have the right to decide.

Mean old bloggers

Do all the widdle bloggers make you angry?

From Elizabeth Yore:

Spadaro S.J. disingenuously asserts that his article is “not our intention to demonize anybody,” despite labeling traditional Catholics as haters, and singling out Trump Senior Advisor, Steve Bannon, as a “promoter of apocalyptic geopolitics.” Not surprisingly, Spadaro drops the Bannon slur in the notoriously favored Francis footnote. See fn. 1.  The Vatican cleverly buries smack talk in footnotes, so readers won’t think that they are unmerciful. This well honed literary tactic was also deployed cunningly in Amoris Laetitia by changing Catholic dogma in a footnote, conveniently providing deniability and detachment. 

Francis and Fr. Spadaro, S.J.

In a separate interview about his La Civilita Cattolica article, Spadaro, S.J. reveals the underlying political motivation behind the Vatican “ecumenism of hate” rant:

“But certainly, we see the multiplication of websites, blogs, and Twitter accounts that tend to move public opinionand react in lively and often in a violent and fundamentalist way. These realities create a bubble within themselves...It is found everywhere. I do not say it is a majority phenomenon, but it is something that is present in the life of the People of God today.”

Apparently, traditional Catholic bloggers have gotten under Francis’ thin skin. The underlying cause of the Pope’s angst is that the conservative Catholic bloggers and websites are making their voice heard by daring to promote the Catholic faith and exposing the papal plots and diabolical alliances. Fr. Spadaro, Francis’ close confidante, is alarmed at traditionalists on the Internet because they tend to move public opinion. Horrors!

Francis, the Merciful, Inc. is distraught over its declining papal popularity poll numbers and blames the conservative blogosphere.

So sue me!

Bergoglio, the Great Liturgist

Two posts below are my comments on Bergoglio's laughable "Magisterial" teaching that the liturgical reform is "irreversible."

Here are some examples of his liturgical obedience and wisdom.

And he still doesn't genuflect at the Consecration!

Pope Francis: Life in prison is a death sentence - and now imprisonment is "torture"

The post below was published on October 23, 2014. It was due to outrageous comments by Bergoglio of Rome on the matter of life in prison. He has again opined on prison and sentencing that imprisonment is an "instrument of torture," unless it has a future of "hope."

http://www.catholicherald.co.uk/news/2017/08/27/imprisonment-without-hope-for-the-future-is-torture-pope-says/

Once again, this man proves he has no business being the Bishop of Rome and Vicar of Christ. The first duty of the State is the safety of its people, from those who would invade it from outside and those who would act against the citizens from within. The State has failed in both of these. Not only does this Bergoglio want to see Europe overrun with migrant peoples who will undermine and destroy the already weak Christian culture, he cares not about the safety of the citizens from those who would do them ill. At least, he's consistent.

Enough of this Peronist!

Does he call these men and the invading hordes to Christ?

Pope Francis received and addressed the International Association of Criminal Law. The Holy Father condemned Capital Punishment and life imprisonment. 

What does the Catechism of the Catholic Church say about this?

2266 The efforts of the state to curb the spread of behavior harmful to people's rights and to the basic rules of civil society correspond to the requirement of safeguarding the common good. Legitimate public authority has the right and duty to inflict punishment proportionate to the gravity of the offense. Punishment has the primary aim of redressing the disorder introduced by the offense. When it is willingly accepted by the guilty party, it assumes the value of expiation. Punishment then, in addition to defending public order and protecting people's safety, has a medicinal purpose: as far as possible, it must contribute to the correction of the guilty party.

2267 Assuming that the guilty party's identity and responsibility have been fully determined, the traditional teaching of the Church does not exclude recourse to the death penalty, if this is the only possible way of effectively defending human lives against the unjust aggressor.

What I find particularly inappropriate about what Pope Francis said is this statement:

“All Christians and people of goodwill are called today to fight not only for the abolition of the death penalty be it legal or illegal, in all of its forms, but also for the improvement of prison conditions in the respect of the human dignity of those who have been deprived of freedom. I link this to the death sentence. In the Penal Code of the Vatican, the sanction of life sentence is no more. A life sentence is a death sentence which is concealed”.

I will quote a few of the names of the most heinous serial killers in Canada and the United States.

Holy Father, with all respect we hear much from you about justice and mercy. Where is justice and where is mercy for the families of their victims  which will until they die, live a life sentence?

With all respect, Holy Father, you have the right to an opinion but to teach this, is another matter. Are you planning a rewriting of the Catechism of the Catholic Church because quite "frankly" you are clearly in disagreement with this magisterial document. 

Life in prison is like Hell. Those there put themselves in it.

The Novus Ordo is "irreversible?" Sorry Jorge, you do not get the last word!

In a catechesis on the liturgy, the man who violated liturgical law consistently in Buenos Aires and then, dispensing with it for himself once elected Bishop of Rome, has said not only that the liturgical revolution of Montini and Bugnini is "irreversible" but he bemoans "those practices which disfigure it." 

For years, as Archbishop of Buenos Aires, Jorge Bergoglio washed the feet of women on Holy Thursday the rubrics were clearly laid out and not changed after Vatican II, as "viri" - men! He continues that what Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre called the "bastard rite," is here to stay.

He has even said that it is "magisterial" that the modernist rite's existence is "irreversible." 

That's rich, really rich. Who can believe this man with this preposterous nonsense? Quo Primum was irreversible too, right? But you see, they knew they could not change the Mass as per Quo Primum, so they didn't. They simply set it aside and created a bastard in its place. If that could be done, then this rotten fruit of Montini and Bugnini can be trodden under foot into the dirt where it belongs.

He can opine on this matter all he wants, I can opine too. The fruit is there for all to see, rotten, bug-infested, spoilt fruit. A bad tree cannot produce good fruit.

The Novus Ordo Missae, in its current form, was never called for by the Second Vatican Council. The reforms, which actually began under Pius XII and which many today decry, were essentially met in the 1965 edition of the Roman Missal, a vernacular "Liturgy of the Word," followed by the retention of Latin from the Offertory throughout the Roman Canon with Propers intact and simplified rubrics without the removal of certain "repetitions." What was missing, was the debatable reformed Lectionary.

Those who believe that the current "Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite," is the Mass as it was anticipated by the Council Fathers are simply ignorant or malicious. Historical fact proves otherwise. Yet, nearly every one of those Council Fathers who booed and hissed poor Cardinal Ottoviani and then cheered the insult of a shut-off microphone, all went along with it. Their actions in those early days of October 1963 have lead to the virtual collapse of Catholicism in Europe, the Americas and nearly everywhere in Oceania. Africa is the one where the faith is not in retreat.

When the churches of France continue to empty, and priests continue to die, the only ones left will be those of the traditional Orders. Vocations, since 2013, are down in most parts of the world. The Novus Ordo Mass, while valid under the usual conditions, is an abomination. It strains credulity and tortures the mind when one tries to square the circle that the Holy Spirit of God is the culprit behind a liturgy that virtually eliminates the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity from the ritual, and rebukes 1600 years of organic liturgical worship. It is a blasphemy to even think that the Holy Spirit of the Triune God actively willed the disaster of the modernists-masonic rite and the evil work that came out of the Second Vatican Council.

The proof in the rightness of the Latin Rite in its solemn fullness is to compare it with the solemnity of the Byzantine, Alexandrian and Syriac Churches. The Novus Ordo is a pale shell of the sacred rite and an insult to the ancient liturgies of the Ethiopians and Copts, and the Syriacs, - Maronites, (except those silly enough to want to be Latinised). Persians, Syro-Malabars and Malankars and the Byzantines - Ukrainians, Ruthenians and Melkites.

The Novus Ordo Mass along with the Novus Ordo "church" is in a free-fall collapse. Bergoglio of Rome can continue the party line but it does not hide the truth. The Catholic world is in full apostasy and it began at the top. This man-centered "church" will collapse along with its bastard rite. What will remain are those faithful Catholics who will not renounce the faith of their fathers and those Catholics whose eyes will be opened.

The future is in tradition and it is the opinion of this writer that the Holy Spirit of God was acting through Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre to maintain the liturgy and the faith until such time as the rest of the Church finds its way to wake up from the drunken stupor which it has found itself in and kicks out the whore with whom it has fornicated.

The collapse of the Bergoglian regime - can it be far away?

This so-called papacy, of Jorge Bergoglio, can really best be described as a "regime." It is, after all, a word and governing style that he would be familiar with, coming from that Peronist swamp of the once great Argentina.

The man is either sheer deluded or just plain stupid by suggesting that the nation-state has no right to protect its borders and citizens and must allow the rest of the world to flock in to undermine its culture and life. It is preposterous to even imagine that a Vicar of Christ would speak such filthy rubbish that would endanger so many at this most difficult time in the world. Sadly, the globalist leaders of Europe seem to be hand in glove with this Bergoglio. What a disgrace.

He has surrounded himself with such heretical, filthy men such as Victor Emmanuel Fernandez who would suggest now, that fornication is no longer a sin. Since birds of a feather flock together, it is reasonable to assume that their thoughts are the same. This Bergoglio has never once rebuked this filthy, perverted, heretical Christ-hating, Catholic-faithful hating deviant as to be no less than one himself.

This papal regime is a fraud. It will come to a swift end in God's good time, and may that be soon.

The problem for us is this; will the next pope be a repeat of this one, except with a sharp mind as opposed to the one now or will it be the one who will restore all things in Christ?

Joseph Ratzinger has betrayed us by leaving the Chair of Peter to this man. While none of us have the authority to pronounce what we do not know, it seems clear to this writer that there is a reason that this Jesuit Peronist acts as he does. He simply cannot receive something for which it has been fraudulently taken.

Islamic terrorists intended to blow up Sagrada Familia

Holy Family was the main target of the terrorists

The cell planned to attack three emblematic and crowded places of the city. The explosion of the Alcanar estate on Wednesday left them without ammunition and forced them to improvise the attacks in Barcelona and Cambrils.

3. ISLAMIST TERRORISM

David López Frías @lopezfrias 

The terrorists who perpetrated the Barcelona bombing had other, more bloodthirsty plans. The initial idea of ​​the attack consisted of filling three vans of explosives and detonating them in three very crowded points of the city. One of the objectives chosen was the Holy Family.

EL ESPAÑOL learned that the jihadists had planned three deflagrations , in an attack very different from the one they ended up committing. Three were the vans used for the massacre, and the three were loaded with explosives stored in a building in Alcanar (Tarragona).  The intention of the jihadists was to commit as much damage as possible, so they chose three of the places with the greatest agglomeration of people.
