Haman was hanged

Father John Zushlsdorf has a post this morning writing about the Introit and Offertory. The Introit is from the Book of Esther and the Offertory Antiphon (there is also one in the Novus Ordo) is from Job.

From Father Z:

You know the story of Esther during the Babylonian Exile. Wicked Haman plotted to get the King to kill all the Jews. Esther foiled his plan and instead, the Jews were able to slay their enemies.

You know the story of Job. He was a righteous man whom Satan tormented with God’s permission to test and strengthen him. He remained faithful in extreme misery and loss. Eventually, Job was rewarded by God with an even better condition than he had before. 

The figures of Esther and Job invest our Sunday Mass with their presence. The Introit Antiphon is from Esther and the Offertory Antiphon is from Job. There is a message embedded in the chants: things can go sideways very fast and mortal peril can arise. The agents of Satan and even Satan himself are at work. We must persevere, for only God is our salvation. Only He can save us, but we, like Ester and especially Job, must do our part both to defend ourselves from the Enemy and then also go on the offensive with prayer: “The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.”

I admit to not having read this scripture. I read it this morning about Esther and Haman.

Esther 7

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

7 1 So the king and Haman went in to feast with Queen Esther. 2 On the second day, as they were drinking wine, the king again said to Esther, ‘What is your petition, Queen Esther? It shall be granted you. And what is your request? Even to the half of my kingdom, it shall be fulfilled.’ 3 Then Queen Esther answered, ‘If I have won your favour, O king, and if it pleases the king, let my life be given me—that is my petition—and the lives of my people—that is my request. 4 For we have been sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be killed, and to be annihilated. If we had been sold merely as slaves, men and women, I would have held my peace; but no enemy can compensate for this damage to the king.’[a] 5 Then King Ahasuerus said to Queen Esther, ‘Who is he, and where is he, who has presumed to do this?’ 6 Esther said, ‘A foe and enemy, this wicked Haman!’ Then Haman was terrified before the king and the queen. 7 The king rose from the feast in wrath and went into the palace garden, but Haman stayed to beg his life from Queen Esther, for he saw that the king had determined to destroy him. 8 When the king returned from the palace garden to the banquet hall, Haman had thrown himself on the couch where Esther was reclining; and the king said, ‘Will he even assault the queen in my presence, in my own house?’ As the words left the mouth of the king, they covered Haman’s face. 9 Then Harbona, one of the eunuchs in attendance on the king, said, ‘Look, the very gallows that Haman has prepared for Mordecai, whose word saved the king, stands at Haman’s house, fifty cubits high.’ And the king said, ‘Hang him on that.’ 10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the anger of the king abated.

Hamas, I mean, Haman, was hanged.

You just can't make this shite up.

Super flumina Babylonis

The Offertory Antiphon for today, the 20th Sunday after Pentecost is, "Upon the rivers of Babylon, there we sat and wept: when we remembered Sion." It is also the Offertory for the 26th Sunday in Ordered Time according to the modernist Missal. Oh, you didn't know there was one?

Think about the text. "Upon the rivers of Babylon, there we sat and wept: when we remembered Sion." Why did they need to "remember Sion?" Because they were taken from their land against their will. 

Where was their land? 

Israel.

The last two lines of this imprecatory psalm, "O daughter of Babylon, miserable: blessed shall he be who shall repay thee thy payment which thou hast paid us. Blessed be he that shall take and dash thy little ones against the rock" speaks of the prayer of Israel against those who would destroy her.

When did you expect that we would tolerate signs and protests, "gas the Jews," or "death to Israel" on our western streets and the Star of David painted on the homes of Jews?

We've been here before.

As a son of Mount Lebanon, I know where I stand. 

Never again!

Never!

Upon the rivers of Babylon, there we sat and wept: when we remembered Sion:
On the willows in the midst thereof we hung up our instruments.
For there they that led us into captivity required of us the words of songs. And they that carried us away, said: Sing ye to us a hymn of the songs of Sion.
How shall we sing the song of the Lord in a strange land?
If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand be forgotten.
Let my tongue cleave to my jaws, if I do not remember thee: If I make not Jerusalem the beginning of my joy.
Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom, in the day of Jerusalem: Who say: Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.
O daughter of Babylon, miserable: blessed shall he be who shall repay thee thy payment which thou hast paid us.
Blessed be he that shall take and dash thy little ones against the rock.

Oseh Shalom

He who makes peace in His high places

May He bring peace upon us

And upon all Israel

And say ye Amen.

May He bring peace, may He bring peace

Peace upon us and on all of Israel

May He bring peace, may He bring peace

Peace upon us and on all of Israel.

To which, I say.

Through Our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen!

Bergoglio is "consciously breaking with the Church's tradition."

Some of us have been on to this Peronist for a decade. It is now so obvious that the full plan of this wicked man is so clear that everyone can see it.

Cardinals issue Dubia, again

Blogging has been slow even though the news is coming a mile a minute. Honestly, I just don't have the energy, brain power, or inclination to write about the antics of Bergoglio or his meetings on meetings filled with deviants, perverts, heretics, and malcontents. Now, we find that five Cardinals have issued a dubia. I have neither the time nor inclination to read it or write or rant on it. 

Father Z has covered it well.

New “DUBIA” Submitted to Francis about the Synodality (“walking togetherity”), same-sex blessings, ordination of women, shifting doctrine | Fr. Z's Blog (wdtprs.com)

I note that at all blogs, Father Z included, comments are down significantly. I don't write this to enlist comments but it does tell me something. People are exhausted by it all.

Do not lose your peace in all of this.

Stay close to Jesus.

On this Sunday at Mass your urgent prayers and donations are requested for our good friend, Andrew Rivera!

Dear Friends,

Andrew Rivera has been a friend of mine for many years. He has been a collaborator with me on the organization of many Masses in the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite across the Greater Toronto Area. He is known to many here both in the diocesan traditional community and the Society of St. Pius X. Andrew is a single father of a five-year-old boy, pictured with him above, his wife having passed away three years ago.

Just after Easter, Andrew had a serious attack and went into a diabetic coma. The next few weeks were like an episode of House (without the cursing and such). Every time I spoke with his mother there was another issue. Infection. Kidney failure and dialysis and the usual things and indignities that accompany such a situation. The most shocking and profound was a stroke caused by clots that can happen due to inactivity. (No jab here folks, so let's leave that one alone). However, it turns out that the cause of the clots may have been a previously undetected "hole in the heart." more properly known as an atrial septal defect and is from birth. In addition to this, there is ongoing neuropathy from the stroke.

Tomorrow morning, Monday, September 18, Andrew will have PFO Closure surgery. Please remember Andrew today at Mass and in your prayers, that God will guide the surgeon's hands so that all will be well and grant a full recovery in all these things to Andrew.

Now, the recovery from this is going to add to the other maladies. It is simply not known when Andrew will be able to return to work.

Thus, I am asking you to be generous with our fundraising campaign.

Your help is most appreciated, Andrew has seen all the data from the GiveSendGo and you are all in his prayers.

God bless you.

Sharing a name with Bergoglio - Frank Walker is recovering well. Being snarky as ever, must be okay. Okay?

 Wonderful news!

Is that the fear of Hell in the eyes of this maggot, Mr. McCarrick the Pervert

 

Archbishop Fernandez Kiss My Arse declares the Doctrine of Francis supersedes the Doctrine of Christ

Edward Pentin reports:

My ability to write reasonably seems to have deserted me.

Report: Frank Walker of Canon212 suffers a stroke!

Ann Barnhardt is reporting the following:

"Gina Walker just let us know that Frank had a stroke Thursday night. He is heavily sedated in ICU. The prognosis is for a full recovery, but it’s going to be a long road back. So, we’re all going to be without Frank’s amazing service and hard work of combing the web for every interesting link for a while."

Frank has been a good friend of this blog. His work on Canon212 has been valuable.

Let us pray that Frank has a full recovery.

God bless you, Frank.

Dear Friends,

First, I want to thank you for all your donations thus far for Andrew Rivera. You are very kind. May God bless you abundantly.

It is August 16 and it has now been over four months since that Easter Week incident that sent Andrew and his family into this crisis. I spoke with him yesterday and he is making great progress. I'm sorry I am not disclosing here all the medical circumstances, I am trying to respect his privacy as much as possible given the circumstances and I am sure you understand. Andrew is not yet "out of the woods." There are more tests to go because as is often the case, when a medical crisis happens and one is exposed to all of these tests and interventions, causes or sometimes new issues are discovered and that is the case. It is too early to say how it will be dealt with and while Canadian health care will cover the medical needs, there is no indication as yet, when he will be able to return to work. If further surgery is required, it will be many, many months. 

On behalf of Andrew and his family, thank you again and God bless you.

On the Viganò comments regarding the Conclave of 2013

Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò has recently made comments that a Cardinal present at the Conclave in 2013 which gave us the Bergoglio has made statements that the election of Bergoglio was fraudulent.

CFN INTERVIEWS VIGANÒ: Francis, Trump, Ukraine, Child Trafficking, and More - Catholic Family News

It is entirely believable given the actions of Bergoglio and his sycophants and the machinations of Mr. McCarrick and the rest of the mafia. 

The alleged Cardinal is concerned about coming forward due to the "pontifical secret." Well, if true, he already broke it. Further, if Bergoglio is not the pope, then there is no "secret" to maintain.

If this is true, the Cardinal must speak out. He must clear the air and call on those present to do likewise.

It really is that simple. 

If not, then he can go to his grave and throw himself on God's mercy for not interventing to save the Church and the faithful for he would be a complicit coward and an accomplice to the destruction.

Ave Maria - Robert Parsons

I've sung and heard many Ave Maria's in my time as a member of the Toronto Oratory Choir, Sacred Music Society, and the award-winning Victoria Scholars. If there is a more sublime setting of the Ave Maria, I do not know it. Schubert? Bach- Gounod? They can't touch this. Victoria? Yes, comes close, but this is by far, the best!

A blessed Feast of the Assumption to all.

Most Blessed Mary, ever-virgin, intercede for this writer and his readers. Amen.

Toronto priest, Neil Pereira, 33, arrested and charged for sexual crimes against a minor!

A Toronto priest on loan to the Diocese of Peterborough, Neil Pereira, 33, has been arrested and charged with sexual crimes against a minor. Prior to leaving for campus ministry at Trent University and Sir Sandford Fleming College. Ordained in June 2020 by Thomas No Mass For You Collins, Pereira was Associate Pastor at St. Isaac Jogues in Pickering.

The man must be presumed innocent. Sources familiar don't believe he did anything inappropriate. Who really knows anymore?

See how long Neil keeps this up.

Not long! Good work, Neil. 

What kind of man thinks a woman receiving Holy Communion on the tongue, whilst veiled, is a sexual fetish?

 I don't know who this D.J. Lafferty is. A short search reveals he is featured on web pages called, Future Church and Where Peter Is. No links to these, they can be found if you must and the fact that they feature him, reveals much about him. He allegedly is a Ph.D., though I hardly find that impressive. He states he is a Catholic.

Removing the veil, this is how I received Holy Communion last Sunday. Does that make me "gay."

Last Vatican II Father outs himself

The last living bishop at Vatican II is dead.

I'll leave it at that.

MiL - Messainlatino.it: In morte di un vescovo rosso, anzi arcobaleno

MiL - Messainlatino.it: In death of a red bishop, indeed rainbow

The funeral of Bishop Emeritus Mons. Luigi Bettazzi, who died last Sunday at the age of 99, was celebrated by his current successor Mons. Edoardo Cerrato. Born in 1923, Mons. Bettazzi was the only Italian bishop still alive to have participated in the Second Vatican Council (he was consecrated bishop in 1963, as auxiliary of Bologna, becoming then ordinary of Ivrea in 1966). 

Last Italian exponent of Vatican II and perhaps also of that "Vatican III" dreamed of by those who already in the aftermath of the assembly was not yet satisfied with the earthquake of changes that took place in a few years. To the point that, even before the council ended, 42 bishops (Bettazzi was the only Italian) gathered at the Catacombs of Domitilla to sign a pact in the name of... "Church of the poor" (a slogan that has often ended up impoverishing the Church by reducing its message to mere social accompaniment). 

In his thirty-year episcopate of Eporedi and also in the long years that followed him as emeritus, Bettazzi remembers above all the letters to Berlinguer, the battle on the fiscal objection for military spending, the pacifist marches and finally the openings – in open support of the Prodi government – on the subject of Dico and various positions that have made the elderly prelate a (red) flag. 

In the cursus honorum of Mons. Bettazzi lacks nothing, including a rather fanciful exegesis in November 2022 in which the prelate admitted to "subverting the Church's conception of abortion," hypothesizing in summary that the embryo is not automatically a person, or at least not immediately (speeches that we have recently heard echoing at higher levels.). In short, it was undoubtedly a "prophetic" voice – whereas "prophetic" usually means "left-wing priest". Prophetic was, however, actually in the famous interview of February 2012 when he spoke of the possible resignation of Benedict XVI, then actually happened a year later. Benedict died, in a new interview in January 2023 he repeated the experiment announcing the resignation of Francis (who will live, will see). And even the remote "prophecy" of the catacombs has come true, but in the sense of impoverishing above all the action of the Church of its spiritual dimension and thus depriving the poor themselves. Also thanks to the contribution of "prophetic" voices like his.

A small detail of the funeral of Mons. Luigi Bettazzi: on the coffin the book of the Gospels and... the "flag of peace" (the one with the colors of the rainbow, not to be confused with the similar but not identical LGBT flag). Better still would be to call it a "pacifist" flag, to remember that ism that marks the difference with Christian peace that does not need flags. 

A symbol inevitably marked by a political connotation, typical of a certain left-wing movement – and also raised in certain parades where there is never a lack of someone animated by excessive non-violent zeal that leads him to smash cars and shop windows. A symbol, however, made its own, especially in the early 2000s, also by a part of the Catholic world to which the cross is no longer enough and ends up being "prey to easy enthusiasms and fashionable ideologies" (quoting Battisti). 

A "divisive" symbol, we would say, towards those who do not share those "easy enthusiasms and fashionable ideologies" and yet would be part of the flock entrusted to the rainbow clergy who, opening up to the "world", end up excluding rather than including, moreover, overturning the evangelical dictate: the good ... left. 

Let us pray to the Lord of the harvest to send us shepherds, not faction-leaders.

“The penetrating kiss is when you suck and slurp with the lips" Cardinal-Elect Victor Fernadez

Front Page Magazine has done it so you and I don't have to. They've read the book.

Gutting the Catholic Church with Deep Tongue Kisses | Frontpage Mag

“The penetrating kiss is when you suck and slurp with the lips. The penetrating kiss is when you stick in your tongue. Watch out for the teeth,” Tucho writes.

“My boyfriend gets a hard mouth when he kisses me. He hasn’t yet learned how to loosen his lips. Lovely!” 

“What I like the most is the kiss of peace at Mass. That was the first kiss with the hottie I have now.” 

“I love kissing his fingertips. It gets more affectionate than anything else.” 

“I once went crazy with the pleasure I was given from being kissed on the eyes. But I didn’t say this because it’s going to leave me blind.”

This filthy piece of pond scum will now lord it over all of us in his role in whatever is left of the doctrinal coherence of the Church. 

Bergoglio is laughing at us.

He won't be laughing forever.
