Cardinal Collins in Toronto: Daily Mass 7:30AM from St. Michael's Cathedral

In Toronto, Thomas Cardinal Collins, following live Mass from St. Michael's Cathedral at 7:30 EST prays the rosary before the Lord, truly present in the Tabernacle.

Live on Facebook daily at 7:30 A.M. EST.


https://www.facebook.com/StMikesCathTO/ 

I note that "some" bishops, have cancelled confession except in cases of imminent death. Not good. Not good at all.  In Toronto, it is by appointment and at a suitable confidential distance. His Eminence makes eminent sense.

May God bless him and keep him healthy.


Cardinal's Message on COVID-19 - March 17, 2020

Tuesday, March 17, 2020

My dear faithful of the Archdiocese of Toronto,
I wish to provide you with a further update on our response as a Christian community to the COVID-19 situation which is evolving rapidly. Today, the Premier of Ontario has declared a state of emergency.
Once again in the history of our archdiocese we are in the midst of an epidemic. I am deeply grateful for the priests, deacons and lay pastoral workers of the archdiocese who have acted in this emergency with such loving pastoral care. We are called to ensure that this continues even more in the time ahead. For example, I encourage all pastors to organize the members of their parish to assist those who are isolated and vulnerable, especially the elderly, while always following the directions of the health authorities.
For the duration of this health emergency, I decree that the following be implemented in all parishes, missions and chaplaincies throughout the Archdiocese of Toronto:
Mass – In view of the requirements of the Government of Ontario, during this medical emergency, beginning Tuesday, March 17, 2020, I instruct that all public Masses be cancelled, both during the week and on the weekend. Churches will be available for individual private prayer.
The priests of the archdiocese will celebrate Mass every day privately for the intentions of the people.
The faithful will be able to watch, via livestream, a Mass which will be celebrated every day at 7:30 a.m. at St. Michael's Cathedral Basilica, which will be followed by the Angelus and the Rosary. I will personally celebrate this Mass as much as is possible. This Mass, Rosary and Angelus will also be available on the Archdiocese of Toronto's YouTube channel for those who cannot join at 7:30 a.m. These Masses and prayers will be offered for the intentions of everyone as we go through these trying times.
In addition, Mass will be broadcast daily on Salt & Light Catholic Media Foundation, VisionTV (Daily TV Mass) and EWTN.
So many of our brothers and sisters in Christ around the world are deprived of the opportunity to celebrate the Holy Eucharist, for many reasons. Due to this health emergency we also will now experience their suffering. Perhaps this sacrifice will help us to cherish more profoundly the great gift of the Holy Eucharist. There is no substitute for personally participating in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, which is the source and summit of our life in Christ, and we pray for the time when this may be universally available once more.
It is important to follow carefully the provisions of the health authorities, but it also essential that our spiritual life be enhanced and strengthened all the more during this crisis. At this time, when we are reminded of the brevity of life and of our own mortality, we are called to go deeper to our spiritual foundations. I encourage all people who remain at home and who are cut off from regular social interaction to engage in prayer – to pray the Rosary, to read the Scriptures and to offer prayers for those who are suffering the most in this crisis. We should also pray for the health care workers and others who are engaged in fighting this pandemic on the frontlines.
Baptism – At this time, communal celebrations of Baptism are not allowed. Individual Baptism is allowed with immediate family and following the regulations established by the health authorities.
RCIA – I dispense the catechumens from the scrutinies. Information will be sent out later on the Triduum and reception into the Church.
First Holy Communion, First Reconciliation and Confirmation will be postponed for the duration of the emergency.
Sacrament of Reconciliation – Communal celebrations of the Sacrament of Reconciliation are not allowed at this time. All those who wish to receive the sacrament should contact a priest. The sacrament is to be celebrated not in a confessional but rather in another location, where confidentiality may be ensured and where the distance required by the health officials can be maintained.
Marriage – Marriages without Mass may take place with the immediate family members, provided they follow the regulations established by the health authorities. The postponement of the wedding may be requested given these circumstances, but if this is granted there may be a need for revision of the canonical requirements. 
Marriage Preparation is very important. At this time, however, marriage preparation classes are cancelled and pastors are to arrange for individual couples to be prepared properly for marriage.
Visits to the Sick and Homebound should continue as much as possible. As previously communicated, visiting clergy and volunteers should take direction from the health care facility. Parishes should also take care to contact the homebound and vulnerable.
Funerals – During this emergency, there will be no vigils or wake services. The Rite of Committal will take place with the immediate family at the cemetery. There will be no funeral Mass at this time, but we encourage the celebration of a funeral Mass at a later date when it is possible.  
Parish Meetings and Events are cancelled at this time.
Parish Offices – While parish offices may offer more limited operating hours, they should maintain an active presence in the community and be accessible to the faithful. Parishes are encouraged to follow the direction of the Archdiocese of Toronto's Human Resources department, providing flexibility for staff as appropriate. The Archdiocese of Toronto's Catholic Pastoral Centre will also follow this practice, ensuring that offices remain accessible.
We will review our emergency provisions regularly in accord with the requirements of the public health officials and we will provide updates at: www.archtoronto.org/covid19.
While it is a painful moment in the life of the Church to take these extreme measures, we pray that they will aid in combating the pandemic that has affected so many in our own community and around the world.
Once again, we pray for those suffering and for those who are caring for the sick. We are facing many trials during our Lenten journey this year. We take these to prayer, and look for opportunities to be the face of Jesus to all those whom we encounter. May God continue to bless you.
In Christ,
Thomas Cardinal Collins
Archbishop of Toronto

China- Wuhan Virus: I've been called a racist.

I've been called a racist for labelling CoVid-19 the China-Wuhan Virus. Are we racist for referring to the Spanish Flu as the Spanish Flu even though it actually came from China with imported workers? Hmmm, isn't that how it came to Italy.

The Communist Chinese government which has enslaved its people for more than 70 years is responsible for this. From a lab to a bat to a mammal to a human or no lab, who knows at this point?

The responsibility lies with the thugs in China and with Bergoglio for the idol worship and his sell-out of the good Chinese Catholic people. God will not be mocked. 

This medical, economic and social crisis we are now in is the fault of the Commuist Chinese regime, it is their Curse Upon the World


Now, Maclean's Magazine, not known as Canada's "conservative" media has a writer asking the question, and yes; I note the bottle of "Fantastik."

Dear Bishops: Is there is a better way than chaining the church door?

Dear Bishops:

As someone in a higher-risk category that could be seriously affected should I contract the China-Wuhan Virus, I understand deeply and personally your actions. Churches can be dirty places. Holy Water fonts are cesspools of bacteria and viruses at the best of times. Every priest should change it ever day. How many of us have seen scum floating in it. The handshake of peace is another transmitter of germs as is the Chalice. These you know and act upon. Holy Communion is worse in the hand than on the tongue provided it is distributed by a priest who knows how to administer it but we understand even there, there can be transmission. The tops of pew seats where the faithful place their hands, door handles and plates, all surfaces are potential for transmission of the China-Wuhan Virus and are rarely, if ever, cleaned and disinfected.

I get it. I think most get it.

This problem is not going away next week, maybe not next month. You are about to cancel the Holy Week services, if you've not done so already. How long are you prepared to go on. July? August? How will you offer Confessions? Will priests really offer a daily Mass, Pro Populo? How many will get lazy and figure, "what's the point? nobody's here." 

Currently, the recommendations is for less than gatherings of 250. But is there another option?

What about the issuance of tickets to 40% of that number or 40% of the occupancy of the church? No charge on them, of course, but access tickets picked up on later than 72 hours before Sunday Mass. 

Close every second pew. Instruct everyone to site 2 metres or 6 feet apart. 

No Holy Communion for any faithful. Ushers or security at the door to lock it at Mass. Disinfect all surfaces. Should the legitimate civil authority reduce the number of gatherings, it can be adjusted.

Have you set up live-streaming from your Cathedral?

After all, if a corporate executive such as Galen Weston can think this creatively, where are you?

In my mailbox this morning was this letter from Galen Weston of the retail conglomerate which includes Loblaws, Shopper's Drug Mart, NoFrills, etc.

Sound advice, maybe better than the bishops?




Hi Everyone,

Things continue to move fast and change quickly.

Earlier today the Canadian Government announced they are closing our international borders to limit the impact of COVID-19. As each of us try to understand how that will affect our daily lives, our friends, and our families, I wanted to reach out again.

Those who went shopping recently will have seen extraordinary numbers of people in stores, long lines, and aisles empty of product. This was a result of extreme levels of buying as millions of Canadians stocked up their kitchens and medicine cabinets. I’m sure the many photos of bare shelves on social media only increased your level of concern.

First and foremost. Do not worry. We are not running out of food or essential supplies. Our supply chain and store teams are responding to the spikes in volume and quickly getting the most important items back on the shelf. Volumes are already normalizing somewhat, and we are catching up. There are a few items, like hand sanitizer, that may take longer to get back, but otherwise we are in good shape.

Another concern you may have is that your supermarket or drugstore could raise prices on the items you and your family need most. Do not worry. This will not happen at our stores. We will not raise a single price on any item to take advantage of COVID-19.

Some of you may also be worried that your local Shoppers Drug Mart or supermarket could close as part of shutting down certain stores and services. Do not worry. We have been in contact with both Provincial and Federal governments. We all agree that food and drug stores are essential services and we must do what we need to in order to keep them operating and serving every community in the days and weeks ahead.

It won't be business as usual. But, you will be able to count on us. Our teams from across the country, at stores in every community, have been hard at work around the clock to live up to that commitment.

Please keep in mind our service relies on keeping them, and in turn you, safe and healthy. That is our top priority, and it may mean limiting the number of people in our stores at any given time as well as asking customers to keep a certain distance from each other while shopping to reduce the risk of making one another sick.

We are prepared for this, and to support those most in need, we are opening some of our stores early with dedicated hours for seniors and people living with disabilities to come before the crowds. We are also encouraging those customers who cannot shop our stores to take advantage of our e-prescribing and PC Express options like click-and-collect and home delivery. Last week we lowered delivery prices and eliminated pick up fees and, just like in our stores, we’ve seen a spike in volume.

We are managing the rising number of orders and ramping up our systems as quickly as we can so customers can shop online with confidence. However, it will be difficult for us to meet all the additional demand, possibly limiting availability for people who are sick, in self-isolation, or at elevated risk. So, I would ask that if you are healthy, mobile, and symptom-free, please do your best to make it into the store.

All of us will face uncertainty and new challenges over the coming days. Our stores and our services will be far from perfect. But, we will do everything in our power to make sure you have what you need for yourselves and your families.

As we have more updates we will continue to communicate, online, in-store, and through our PC Optimum app.

For now, let me leave you with four things:

1.           We have the food, drugs, and essential products you need and that supply will continue even as Canada closes its borders.

2.           We are going to make sure our stores stay up and running to serve your community.

3.           We will not, under any circumstance, change our actions or prices to take advantage of COVID-19.

4.           Please be patient with us when you are shopping, and don’t forget to practice social distancing.

Over the last few days, it has been remarkable to witness Canadians supporting one another in our aisles: Bags carried to cars. Crowds parting so young moms could check out. Cheers for speedy cashiers. Customers helping stock shelves.

One example in particular stood out. A few days ago, someone stuck a handmade sign to the front of a store. It reads “Be kind”. This is great encouragement to cap off perhaps one of the most-tense weeks of our 100 years running stores, and to help all of us prepare for what is next.

Be kind to each other. We will get through it.

Galen Weston

Just in case you want to know why you can't go to Mass today and what to do instead

In the event you are wondering why you can't go to Mass today, ponder this picture.


I don't believe that God sent us the China-Wuhan Virus, CWV19 as a punishment directly but He permitted the Evil One to do it. This is Old Testament stuff. We sin, we suffer the consequences. Abortion, greed, pornography, murder, modernism and the new paganism. It came from a godless, vile and despicable regime that has subjugated and corrupted its people. It may certainly have been invented in a laboratory as a form of germ-warfare. It may have come from a bat to a mammal to a human in a filthy wet market. It may have been the first going into the second. Regardless, it was the work of Satan who inspired evil men to the point of eating bats and slaughtering animals we should never eat in unhealthy conditions that should never be tolerated. It came from sin and greed and paganism.

The man in white above is a monster. What he did in that photo was to stick his middle finger at the Lord God of Heaven and Earth. No, God did not send this, but God has revoked his divine protection.

Now there is no public Holy Week in Italy, Will it happen here in Toronto? In Montreal? New York? Lincoln? It is the rotten Bill Clinton, George Bush and Barack Obama along with their Canadian counterparts and their corporate masters that off-shored our manufacturing to the disgusting atheist regime of China including necessary pharmaceuticals. It is your fault because you want cheap plastic and electronic garbage you don't need. You want cheap stuff and your neighbour is unemployed. What will you do when it comes to you. I am no socialist, but I am a patriot and a nationalist and Donald John Trump gets it. Bergoglio does not.

Lay the blame where it belongs and most of it on the Bergoglian pagan and his hirelings and the globalist cabal. Let this be the end of all of them and it.

Let China be held accountable!

Now, you have no Mass, what do you do?

The Mass does not need you. The Holy Sacrifice is confected by the priest and only needs to be consumed by him for validity. You and I are secondary. 

If you have the Mass, make a spiritual communion. don't endanger yourself or especially, the priest. Do you know what happens when he touches that palm of your hand after you had your hands on that filthy door handle or pew in front of you. When he pours water over his fingers into the ciborium and then to the chalice to consume it he just swallowed all of your germs. Communion in the hand is not sanitary to anyone, especially the priest.

Pray the Office for today, old or new. There is a link above to the traditional.

Pray the Mass, the traditional is at that same link, the new you can find.

Pray the rosary if you can't do the other, or do it anyway.

Enjoy your day.

Update: Toronto's suffragen diocese of London - public Masses cancelled.

https://dol.ca/news/cancellation-of-masses-for-the-weekend-of-march-14-15


March 14, 2020

Some Medical Officers of Health across the region are banning gatherings of 250 people or more. In light of this and the continuing concern for the health and safety of our parishioners, Bishop Fabbro announced today that all Masses shall be cancelled for this weekend. We will continue to monitor the situation and consult with public health officials to determine the course of action for next weekend and subsequent weekends.

For this weekend and as long as necessary, Bishop Fabbro grants the faithful dispensation from their Sunday obligation. Churches should remain open for private prayer and Eucharistic Adoration. Daily Mass will continue during the week. All other directions from Bishop Fabbro remain in effect at weekday Masses, with the additional direction to ensure proper “social distancing,” maintaining a 2 metre distance from others as a precaution. 

More on the suppresson of public Sunday Mass in Toronto ... use your heads, people!

Cardinal Collins of Toronto has suppressed public Mass for at least, tomorrow, the Third Sunday of Lent. Churches will not be closed, they will be open for prayer, many will have Holy Hours and Adoration. This is to prevent the assembly of 250 or more.  While some may see this as draconian, I think we need to put this in some perspective. Daily Mass is not prohibited because of the smaller numbers. The suppression is week by week. Further, priests will offer "pro populo" and consume the Holy Sacrifice. That is what it is important. Our attendance is secondary, this has always been the case. It is only necessary to receive Holy Communion once per year. 

Friends, let us put this in perspective. 

Yesterday, 250 people in Italy died from this China Virus, yes, that is what this is, China Virus or Wuhan Flu. Do you want this here? For reasons which will eventually be known, Italy was caught off guard, most likely not taking it seriously enough in the early stages. Italy has the most elderly population in Europe which is why the death rate is so high and now it is out of control in Spain. Do you want Nonna and Papa to drop dead here too before their time?

This writer is 63, has asthma and chronic bronchitis. On December 19 past, my lungs filled with a bacterial infection and my fever on Christmas Eve was 102. A week later, it migrated to my heart developing into pericarditis and when in hospital over New  Year's they gave me Influenza A which manifested a week later. Where do you think I will be if this thing comes to me? Now, I am doing everything I need to do for my immune system from Vitamin C and D to Chaga Mushroom Tea and Oil of Oregano.

On the advice of the Chief Medical Officer of Health, Douglas Ford, the Premier of Ontario, has ordered all publicly-funded (Catholic included) schools to close for two weeks following next week's scheduled March Break. In turn, the school boards have closed child-care centres and the City's other gathering places. This is a brilliant move in the public interest. What he has done is put schools in a kind of self-quarantine. People are going to travel next week and rather than bring this disease back to the schools after March 23 where it will explode, they can get sick at home. Further, if anyone in the system has it, it will be known by the beginning of April and the spread will have been drastically reduced and the curve, flattened. 

The issue must be to flatten the curve. We must lower the peak which has not yet come. We must spread out critical illnesses because our health system will not be able to handle it and doctors will decide who will live and who will die based on age and conditions. Do you want this? 

So, let's be understanding in all of this. For some perspective on these matters you can read Hilary White @hilarityjane. Formerly of Toronto, Hilary lives in Italy and is experiencing it first-hand and has some surprising thoughts on the need for cancelling public Mass.  

DEATHS IN ITALY ARE DOUBLING EVERY DAY! ITALY IS 10 - 12 DAYS AHEAD OF NORTH AMERICA.

Data from China and Iran cannot be trusted. The regimes are corrupt and evil. Italy is the example of what is really going on. Italy is our canary and the epicentre of our data-points.

My question for you is this; are you prepared to risk your health and that of your family by attending Mass and bringing something home to them possibly killing your elderly parents or neighbour or yourself? Are you prepared who may be carrying the virus without knowing to infect someone else leading to their illness and perhaps death? 

Yes, yes, I know, it is a communist plot engineered by the globalist cabal. Well, it was started by a heinous communist state and culture that promoted the development of markets and slaughter of exotic animals that man was never meant to consume in deplorable conditions. China should be condemned for this. So should our own governments and corporate elite who off-shored our manufacturing including pharmaceuticals to this rogue regime of pathetic God-hating brutes. 

China did this and should be condemned by other nations for its barbarism and evil.

Before you condemn Cardinal Collins, he did not ban Holy Communion or force you to receive in the hand as the derelict bishops of Hamilton or Peterborough have done.

You don't need to receive and consume the Holy Sacrifice at Mass, the priest does. The Mass is Atonment to God, not your receiving of the Most Holy Sacrament or even your attendance. The Archbishop of Toronto has dispensed you from attending Holy Mass on Sunday, it is not a sin to miss.

Now, if you insist you have one option in Toronto but the church is very small and seats 120 and is already cheek by jowl and cannot hold you so you'll be outside on the lawn because I expect the hall will also be full. The Church of the Transfiguration is on Aldgate Avenue in the south Etobicoke community in Toronto and is a Chapel of the Society of St. Pius X. Mass is proceeding, regardless of the announcement by Cardinal Collins. But I think one and all need to be prudent and not overwhelm that little community and leave it alone for those who already attend and who sit cheek by jowl  every week.

You can go to Hamilton diocese starting from Oakville but Holy Communion is being enforced in the hand (OF WHICH THE BISHOP HAS NO AUTHORITY TO IMPOSE). The bishop there made no distinction to exclude the Latin Mass from this unauthorised decision. The people there will distribute leaflets on how to make a spiritual communion, the people will not receive.

YOU MUST NOT EVEN ATTEMPT TO RECEIVE HOLY COMMUNION IN THE HAND AT THE TRADITIONAL LATIN MASS - EXTRAORDINARY FORM OF THE ROMAN RITE. -- GOT THAT? IF THE PRIEST DOES NOT DISTRIBUTE HOLY COMMUNION DO NOT HARASS HIM FOR IT. CLEAR?

Another option is a little further west into the Diocese of London where the situation is very prudent. No chalice, no hand-shake, no holy water (usually a filthy petri dish at the best of times and best avoided - bring your own), recommended but not forced communion in the hand. The Diocese of St. Catharines is also reasonable. 

Rather than attending Costco to get in a fight over the roll of toilet paper that is not there, you might all drive to Holy Angels in St. Thomas, Ontario for the traditional Latin Mass which is at 1:30. 

If not, pray the Mass at home, the office and enjoy your family time and stay out of the stores. 

Besides, you should always have three months of food on hand. Let this be a lesson for next time to be a prepper.

NO MASS FOR YOU, TORONTO!

Cardinal’s Message on COVID-19

Friday, March 13, 2020

Coat of arms of Cardinal Thomas Collins
To the faithful of the Archdiocese of Toronto,
In light of the present situation unfolding before us regarding the coronavirus (COVID-19) worldwide, our primary concern is the spiritual and physical health and welfare of the faithful and of all those who serve at our parishes, recognizing that we also have a duty to care for the community at large and the most vulnerable among us.
We have provided several updates over the past six weeks, guided by the best advice from local health officials. In all of this, we are guided both by our commitment to cooperate effectively with the civic officials responsible for the common good and also by our commitment to provide for the spiritual well-being of the faithful in our Catholic community. We need to care for others and to respond to these challenges with accurate and credible information.
The Chief Medical Officer of the Province of Ontario is asking that all public gatherings greater than 250 people be cancelled at this time. For this reason, as many of our weekend Eucharistic celebrations will exceed this number, I ask that our Catholic parishes cancel public Mass for the faithful this weekend; we will assess this decision for next weekend and any other that is required after consulting health officials. For this weekend and any other which may be required, I grant the faithful dispensation from their Sunday obligation. Churches should remain open for private prayer and Eucharistic Adoration. Daily Mass will continue during the week.
The Holy Eucharist is the source and summit of our life in Christ. Not to celebrate the Holy Eucharist on the day of the Lord is an extraordinary spiritual suffering for the disciples of Jesus Christ. Indeed, in ancient times, the Christians had a saying, "Without the Sunday Eucharist, we cannot continue." For this reason, while we are following the advice of the health authorities, as is our civic duty, we hope that this period of suspension will be brief.
We are asking parishes to adopt the following measures in addition to those that have already been communicated:
Mass Attendance
During this period of special vigilance, the following points apply for weekday Masses at the present time and for weekend Masses, when they are resumed:
  • In a spirit of charity, concern for others and to limit the potential spread of COVID-19, I ask that those who are sick, feeling unwell or vulnerable to sickness, refrain from attending Mass at present.
  • A daily televised Mass is available through Salt & Light Catholic Media Foundation (www.saltandlighttv.org) as well as through VisionTV and also online (www.DailyTVMass.com). This provides an additional opportunity to pray for those who are suffering as well as for our health care professionals tending the sick.
  • At this time, weekday parish Mass schedules should remain unchanged to allow the faithful to receive the sacraments and to be strengthened in their commitment to care for others. We will continue to communicate with health officials in the days to come to receive the most reliable and accurate information which is the foundation for our actions.
Liturgical Practices
  • We ask that parishes empty all Holy Water fonts until further notice.
  • Extraordinary Ministers should not receive the Precious Blood prior to the distribution of communion. As previously directed, Extraordinary Ministers should ensure hands are washed or cleansed with hand sanitizer both before and after distribution.
  • Regarding Holy Communion, some health experts have indicated that it is preferable for communicants to receive the Eucharist in the hand rather than on the tongue. To respect the right of the faithful to receive Holy Communion on the tongue, at this time I would ask that all those who wish to receive in this way be directed to a designated priest, deacon, or Extraordinary Minister. Where there is only the priest present for distribution of Holy Communion, those who wish to receive communion on the tongue can be invited to come forward after those who have received on the hand.
  • In response to concerns raised by some parishes regarding the offertory, we discourage passing of the basket. Parishes should use baskets with handles, if they are available, or have ushers with baskets at the back of the church where parishioners can deposit their donations.
  • As I have previously requested, parishioners are asked to refrain from shaking hands during the Sign of Peace. Distribution of the Precious Blood is suspended at this time.
Parish Events & Pastoral Care
  • Archdiocesan and parish offices remain open at this time for the service of the people. Hospital and nursing home visits will be subject to the norms instituted by those respective institutions. People should not attend parish activities of any kind if they are sick, vulnerable, or unwell.
  • Parishes should encourage staff to practice healthy hygiene while taking steps to sanitize public spaces and "touch points" more frequently. Washing with soap and water for a sufficient amount of time is highly recommended.
  • During this time, when there is understandable anxiety among so many, the church has an important role to play through our outreach ministries. Particular care should be taken to ensure that the vulnerable are not alone. Parishes should explore opportunities to creatively connect with vulnerable parishioners - perhaps this is through phone calls and/or visits where appropriate.
While challenging days remain, we must also recognize the opportunity to be truly present to one another and to care for those who are struggling. These moments of uncertainty call each one of us to renew our commitment to prayer, fasting and almsgiving as part of our Lenten journey, amplified on a broader scale in light of current circumstances. May we continue to pray for all those infected with COVID-19, those caring for the sick and for one another.
May God bless you always.
In Christ,
Thomas Cardinal Collins
Archbishop of Toronto

Bergoglio Video to Chinese Catholics - be good little communists!

It was in early 2016 that this writer was amongst the first who wrote about the Vatican's plan to sell out the Catholics of China to the Communist regime. Everything written about has come to pass. Cardinal Zen's warnings have been ignored as has he. The Vatican apartchiks, most of them atheists, communists and sodomites, have turned on Cardinal Zen and now seek to discredit him.

The silly Pope Video which has for a few years now been a nauseating diatribe has sunk to new lows. Bergoglio can only be described as evil.

O God, save your Church in China. Save all of us from these evil men.

When will Salt + Light feel the burn?

Vanier: A depraved predator, a liar and more. He was a heretic and a blasphemer!


Ask yourself, did L'Arche know this whilst he was still alive and covered it up?


The report commissioned by L'Arche is clear, Jean Vanier was a pervert protector, a sexual predator, a liar, a heretic and a blasphemer.

I am shocked by those on social media defending this predator.

I hope Rosica, Salt + Light the CCCB and all the rest of the Canadian Catholic establishment that promoted this "living saint" for a half century are embarrassed. I always suspected this creep. He was just too holy, too perfect. Every Catholic student for decades has had to endure the propaganda in their textbooks, even schools have been named after him. 

The quote below is from the report:
Then he began theories, to try to convince me, […]: the lost woman of Hosea, the sacrifice of Abraham, the glorious mysteries, the transcendence of the prophetic mission (of his mission) regarding the norms of morality. He asked me, most insistently, to bind myself to him by an act of absolute faith in this mission and in himself. I replied that I could only make an act of faith in God alone, and trust in creatures only insofar as they were God’s instrument for me […]. He explained to me that it was not for me to make this discrimination, that he was an instrument of God, and therefore at present and directly moved by God […].
He said that I lacked strength, that I had to get used to it gradually, that all this was a great honour to Our Lord and to the Blessed Virgin, because the sexual organs were the symbol of the greatest love, much more than the Sacred Heart -. And I said, “but that’s blasphemy! “Then he took up his theories again, saying that when one arrives at perfect love, everything is lawful, for there is no more sin.

Jean Vanier: Stinking fraud, Pervert and Spiritual Guru - Anthing but a model Catholic


L'Arche International, founded by Jean Vanier has commissioned its own study on allegations of sexual and spiritual abuse against its lionised founder and the facts lay clear, the man was a stinking fraud.

Vanier was championed by the Catholic elite in Canada as being the perfect person. Schools were named after him, he was held up as an example of all that is good. Like Thomas Merton, he was an abusive pervert.

This abusive scumbag took advantage of women at their worst spiritual time, even comparing himself and declaring that he was one with Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Well Rosica; Is he still? How's life at Southdown? 

This writer wrote once about this stinking poseur, with his stinking corpse in the ground I never thought I would need to again. 

https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-larche-founder-jean-vanier-sexually-abused-at-least-six-women-report/

He is playing us.

Everyone is breathing a sigh of relief. Bergoglio has not admitted women to the diaconate or married men to the priesthood in Amazonia. Phew, that was close.

People are demanding that those who criticized Bergoglio leading up to this apostolic excremation must repent. 

Nonsense!

If anyone must repent and publicly, it is Bergoglio. Why did he allow this awful debate to disturb so many? Because he intended to do it until the Supreme Pontiff, the Holy Father Benedict XVI shut it down in his work with Cardinal Sarah. 

The man wanted this, he wanted it badly. He could not do it, prevented by the Supreme Pontiff Pope Benedict XVI. The Germans are outraged, Marx has stepped aside. The left will now abandon Bergoglio. He is forever marked as a failure. His idolatry of the pagan idol is his rotten legacy. 

But don't be fooled. By not closing the door, Bergoglio has left the door open. He is a snake.

W. A. Mozart - KV 93 - De profundis in C minor

Arrogant and pompouse, the Bargolian rat Sorondo proves he is one!

Oh my, this is just too good. Hats off to Diane Montagna at LifeSiteNews who no doubt used her charms (and I mean that in the most respectful and positive way) to bring out the worst in some Argentinean scumbag inappropriately ordained a priest who grew up to be a most corrupt ecclesiast and butt-kisses the global elite on behalf of a most disgraceful Argentinian bumpkin who usurped the Seat of Peter and remains on it - an un-lanced boil.

From the get-go, Montagna does not shy away from the tough questions and just does it with such humility and directness that the apostate Sorondo is flummoxed. So much so, he chooses instead to insult her - calling her "lady" and then that she is a "fanatic."

I think the best part was when Ms Montagna corrected the idiot Sorondo on Holy Scripture.  He continues on to insult Donald J. Trump for not being Catholic, Cardinal Raymond Burke for being one and then goes on to endorse sacrilege and unworthy reception of Holy Communion.

DM: I’m just thinking of the good of his soul – and for the good of her soul. St. Paul is very clear about how we can eat condemnation upon (cf 1 Cor. 1:29)…

BS: Yes, but St. Paul is very clear also to say, “my only judge is my conscience.” St. Paul said it.

DM: No, no he didn’t. He said that the Lord is his judge. He said: “Not even I can judge myself. The Lord is my judge” (cf. 1 Cor. 4:4).

BS: The Lord is my judge, but the Lord is in my conscience.

DM: The Lord isn’t necessarily if we don’t have …

BS: He’s not in the conscience of the bishop or the cardinal…

DM: But if you don’t have a well-formed conscience where divine grace is actually active, then your conscience is probably lying to you. The darkness of the intellect…

BS: This is your interpretation. Sorry, I don’t want to continue to speak with you because you are completely… and you want only to make polemics. You need to be very happy and to say to your Cardinal Burke, “Look the president [of Argentina] goes to the Mass.” This is the important fact. And your president did not go to the Mass.

DM: What do you mean, my president?

BS: Say this.

DM: My president in terms of President Trump?

BS: Yes. He does not go to the Mass.

DM: But he’s not Catholic. He’s not Catholic.

BS: Exactly! This is a great difference.

DM: He’s not Catholic. But President Trump went in January... he was the first U.S. president ever to go to the March for Life with thousands and thousands of young people.

BS: Yeah, to have the votes of the Catholics. To have the votes of the Catholics. Say this to Cardinal Burke. And in fact, I heard that Cardinal Burke is against President Trump.

DM: Is against?

BS: Yes. Yes.

DM: Or he went to see him?

BS: He is against many things that [Trump] says.

DM: Well, you don’t have to agree with everything President Trump does. But he’s saving babies. He’s saving babies.

BS: Please, lady, understand the Catholic ideas and do not be fanatic, do not be fanatic.

DM: Okay…

BS: If you continue to speak with me, do not be fanatic. Try to use reason.

DM: I am. Okay. Thank you very much.

Bergoglio has succeeded in surrounding himself with the most corrupt and vile men. This Sorondo probably takes the cake and one wonders what else.

Read the whole article and the interview. It is just so bad and so good, all at the same time.

Oh my, the rats are so exposed.
