33 Years

The age of Our Blessed Lord at the time of the betrayal by Judas Iscariot who was not a "good boy" and of whom the Lord said, "It would be better had he not been born," and whom has always been presumed to be in Hell.

The number of years which your writer has sung the Triduum.

Until this year. Surreal.

Gradual for Holy Thursday.

Nos autem gloriari oportet:Palestrina

Thank you to this Korean choir who seems to know how to sing Palestrina better than most who wish to do this glorious piece twice as fast. I mean, seriously, what do you think you're doing? I sang this for years at The Toronto Oratory.


Introitus - Nos autem gloriari with our Holy Father, Benedict XVI in 2011

From more simpler and innocent times.

I could just weep.

COMMUNIST PARTY OF CHINA VIRUS Tracking Down the Origins

Judas was a "good boy" and Jesus called him "friend."

What is it with this non Vicar of Christ that at a time with the world groaning medically, socially and economically he can't even stop for Holy Week from his insanity, his heresy and his evil statements. I read the opinion a few days ago that this man is possessed by the devil and has been since his youth. 

There can be no doubt.

Get out of Rome, now!



Non Vicar of Christ Bergoglio dares God to act again!

It wasn't enough that Bergoglio allowed the bowing down and worship of a pagan idol, now, because he did not get the explicit answer he wants, he tries again on the issue of women in the Diaconate.

May God deal with Him swiftly and decisively. I expect that the Vatican will be destroyed and most of Rome along with it. I would expect it to happen soon, as fast as the China Virus has come  upon us. 

A most evil and despicable man is this Jorge Mario Bergoglio. A man whose actions can only lead one to believe that he is perfectly possessed by a demon from Hell if not Satan himself.

He spits in the Face of God, in this most Holy of Weeks!

O God in heaven, save us. Save us from the evil hirelings who have taken your Church and the evil imposter who is not the Vicar of Christ by his own admission.

As you like it

As you like it, George. We finally agree, when it comes to you, Vicar of Christ is a historical reference.

“YOU HAVE SAID SO” - Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò

 “Truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me.” And they were very sorrowful, and began to say to him one after another, “Is it I, Lord?” He answered, “He who has dipped his hand in the dish with me, will betray me. The Son of man goes as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! It would have been better for that man if he had not been born.” Judas, who betrayed him, said, “Is it I, Master?” He said to him, “You have said so.”  (Mt 26, 20-25)

On March 25, the 2020 Pontifical Yearbook was published with a real novelty. It may seem like a typographical trifle, in the part dedicated to the reigning pontiff, but this is not the case. Until last year, in fact, Francis’s titles were listed at the top of the page, beginning with “Vicar of Christ”, “Successor of the Prince of the Apostles” etc., and ending with his birth name and a very brief biography.

In the new edition, on the other hand, the secular name JORGE MARIO BERGOGLIO stands out in large letters, followed by the biography, the date of election and the beginning of his “ministry as universal Pastor of the Church.” Separated by a dash and the words, “Historical titles,” all the titles of the Roman Pontiff are then listed, as if they were no longer an integral part of the Munus Petrinum that legitimizes the authority which the Church recognizes in the Pope.

This change in the layout and content of an official text of the Catholic Church cannot be ignored, nor is it possible to attribute it to a gesture of humility on the part of Francis, which is not in keeping with his name being so prominently featured. Instead, it seems possible to see in it the admission — passed over in silence — of a sort of usurpation, whereby it is not the “Servus servorum Dei” who reigns, but the person of Jorge Mario Bergoglio, who has officially disavowed being the Vicar of Christ, the Successor of the Prince of the Apostles and the Supreme Pontiff, as if they were annoying trappings of the past: only mere “historical titles.”

An almost defiant gesture — one might say — in which Francis transcends every title. Or worse: an act to officially alter the Papacy, by which he no longer recognizes himself as guardian, but becomes master of the Church, free to demolish it from within without having to answer to anyone. In short, a tyrant.

May the significance of this most serious act not escape pastors and the faithful, for by it the sweet Christ on earth — as St. Catherine called the Pope — releases himself from his role as Vicar to proclaim himself, in a delirium of pride, absolute monarch even with respect to Christ.

We are approaching the sacred days of the Savior’s Passion, which commences in the Upper Room with the betrayal of one of the Twelve. It is not illegitimate to wonder whether the understanding words with which Bergoglio tried to rehabilitate Judas on June 16, 2016 were not a clumsy attempt to exonerate himself.

This chilling thought is further confirmed by the terrible decision to allow an almost universal ban of the public celebration of Easter, for the first time since the Resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

“The Son of man goes as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed!” (Mt 26:24)

From the era of the Spanish Flu


Choir practice turns fatal. Would you rather it read; Mass attendance turns fatal?



Rorate Caeli Twitter on a blocking frenzy

Seriously?

What has gone on with the people behind Rorate Caeli blog. They have lost control of their reason and rationality. People are losing their minds and have lost the ability to disagree and debate. 


Anyone from Rorate wish to comment?

You know, two can play at this game, I can delist you from here too.
