Reminds of this gem by Francis from January, 2016: Francis said. “Everyone is aware of how sensitive the Church is to ethical issues but perhaps it is not clear to everyone that the Church does not lay claim to a privileged voice in this field." Really, Francis? Then why listen to the Church at all?
What?! This is hard to believe. Lord, have mercy on us and on the whole world. It appears we are living again with wolves in sheep’s clothing. God, help us all.
Fr Prevost was ordained personally by Bp Jean Jadot in Rome, to which he had just returned after being Paul VI’s nuncio& where he had assisted in the rise of Bernardin and all his ilk to power in the NCCB as it was at the time. These men NEVER ordained or advance ANYINE who is not already a firmly dependable acolytes or ally of Modernism and corruption.
Chris: I'm new to this Substack but I already very much appreciate your "no holds barred" approach to forthrightly calling a spade a spade WRT V-2 (like the German rocket) and the NO (Not Orthodox) Mass. It is a refreshing break from Michael Matt's irenic approach to "uniting the clans" over at The Remnant, where every punch is pulled lest it actually hit its target and – gasp! -- foment divisiveness and schism, all under the rubric of “prudence” and being "wise as serpents and innocent as doves".
Don't get me wrong: Matt is doing some good and necessary work ISO Tradition over at the Remnant, but the time is long past (60+ years already) for diplomacy and dialogue and "waiting and seeing" if the century-long Freemasonic infiltration of the Church can be, maybe, slowed down. A little bit. Here and there. Tradition cannot and will not be restored without a fight, a fight that has yet to be brought home fully to the Church's usurpers at all levels of the hierarchy.
I don't know what you think of her, but I'm more in line with Ann Barnhardt's forthright, and frankly, bellicose and pugilistic approach to dealing with the manifest evil infesting the human element of the Mystical Body of Christ. When your house is on fire you don't "wait and see" how bad it might get, and you don't "dialogue" with the fire to determine which parts of the house it will be allowed to burn down. You pick up a bucket or a hose and you fight that fire to the last with all your energy. That's where I'm at.
Even those whom we laud as defenders of the faith (e.g., Cardinal Burke or Bishop Athanasius Schneider) dare not say boo to a goose against Vatican II or the likely invalid conclaves that ensued after B16’s “partial resignation”. Full throated public support for the Vatican II revolution is the Freemasonic antithesis of Pius X’s “Oath Against Modernism” or the requirement that priests swear allegiance to the state (juring priests) during the French Revolution (another Freemasonic monstrosity).
An exaggerated concern for “schism” is frequently offered as an excuse for this ostensible effeminacy, especially over at The Remnant. Well, guess what? That schism is already here. As Father Linus Clovis observed several years ago (2017), "It is self-evident that the Catholic Church and the anti-Church currently co-exist in the same sacramental, liturgical and juridical space." All that remains is for the anti-Church, which is in the substantial majority, to declare the true Church to be in schism for not swearing complete and undying allegiance to Vatican II and the Novus Ordo Mass. For those who might scruple over such a development, I note with Miss Barnhardt that “it is IMPOSSIBLE to cause, or to enter into schism by the act of holding the Catholic Faith, whole and entire.”
Personally, should the institutional Church decide to defenestrate traditional Catholics, I will personally request the Vatican, via my local ordinary, to send me an official decree of excommunication suitable for framing.
I wholeheartedly agree with your message. Very well put. I’m glad that you found my sub stack and are a part of the new resistance. The election of Leo means that the insanity of Francis gets to be normalized over the next two decades. Are we going to sit by while this happens? I think that is madness.
The longer this continues to go on the longer that it gets entrenched and people think that this is what the Church is and that this is normal. We must never stop informing people that this is not normal just like Archbishop Lefebvre and just like all of the traditional movement up until a few weeks ago. God bless and thank you for your support!
Chris, thank you for all your diligent and comprehensive treatment of facts pertaining to our new pope. I find your posts to be an extremely valuable resource chronicling the continuance of errors that are occurring in Catholic Church governance.
I strongly support the right of Catholics to enjoy the graces of worship utilizing the TLM and find it wholly demonic to restrict such. I myself am ordained in very small, nearly extinct, Catholic Rite that uses the 1974 version of the Novus Ordo liturgy. While imperfect, it can be celebrated with much solomnity and reverence. I believe it is acceptable to God based, if nothing else, on the Eucharistic miracles that have occurred during its celebration.
Thank you again for your hard work in documenting the continued deconstruction of the faith by the current church hierarchy as it gallops forward in its efforts to be accepted by the standards of the world rather than the standard of Gospel of Jesus Christ, our Lord and redeemer. Clear and factual documentation of these errors will be useful, I believe, in the future for those faithful Catholics who will be further marginalized and perhaps ultimately rejected by the Holy See.
Interestingly, yesterday's Gospel reading for Mass struck me in that regard, being this from John chapters 15 and 16:
-------------
Jesus said to his disciples:
"When the Advocate comes whom I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, he will testify to me.
And you also testify, because you have been with me from the beginning.
"I have told you this so that you may not fall away.
They will expel you from the synagogues;
in fact, the hour is coming when everyone who kills you will think he is offering worship to God.
They will do this because they have not known either the Father or me.
I have told you this so that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you."

FYI, I have posted an article you might find interesting concerning an ancient document titled “The Teachings of the Apostles” written as a local catechism in approximately 90 AD. My post quotes nearly the whole of its teaching. While it has no authority at present it does offer a fascinating glimpse into the thinking and teaching of those entrusted to care for Christ's followers only a generation or two after Christ's life, death, and resurrection. It's clear, concise, and quite direct - which is a style you appreciate, no doubt ;-)
Peace and Blessings to you and yours. Keep up the invaluable work you are doing.
Chris.Your writings are brilliant and so true with regard to the Apostate state of things in the Vatican.Apostate Rome it is.God Help us.Philip Johnson.
There is a song in France titled: Everything is well, Madame Marquise.
The Lady calls the squire James after a vacation to find out how her estate is going. James tells her everything is going well, except for a detail we deplore one little thing.... your horse is dead, there were a fire in the Castle, oh and your husband is no more.... but Everything is going well.
Like Wile E Coyote and the little umbrella as the rock is about to fall on him from the cliff top let's keep hoping for that New SpringTime we were promised in the 1960s.
So ... you think that people in terrible pain with terminal diseases should have no say as to whether to end their lives, because YOU think it's a "mortal sin"?

Waited and saw. It's getting worse and worse.
“Meet the new boss..same as the old boss…”
"justified assisted suicide as a “lesser evil'"
And what was the greater evil? Letting people live?
Yikes. I’m not Catholic. But this is not good for civilization. It sounds more liberal Protestant.
His address at his inauguration could have been delivered by any Protestant bishop. And the VatiTwoees told me I didn’t know what I was talking about.

Or like Charlie Brown sure that THIS TIME he’s gonna kick that football and Lucy won’t yank it away.

This is a nightmare. Lord have mercy on us.
There is the following from 2012, about a canceled stem cell conference, possibly infighting at the academy, and clearly scorn for pro-life voices:
https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/24699/contrasting-reasons-given-for-canceling-vatican-stem-cell-congress
I listen to everything from Rome in two ways-what they say and what they want-best to stand with historical truths from the past.
So ... you think that people in terrible pain with terminal diseases should have no say as to whether to end their lives, because YOU think it's a "mortal sin"?
I’m just waiting for Marshall and Hall and company explaining how this is the result of pressure from people who want to co-opt Neo-Leo.
Kyrie eleison 🙏
