I just found your substack a couple of weeks ago, and all I can think is; Where have you been!?๐ Remarkable writing, Remarkable clarity, just what we all need!!! Thank you so very much ๐
Pope Provost is just classic Bogus Ordo. Pope Frantic was the implementer, Pope Provost will oversee the consolidation. Meanwhile, what he says regarding cohabitation parallels the Bogus Ordo, which evil not so much for what it says, but for what it does NOT say. The Traditional Mass is unabashedly a Propitiatory Sacrifice, an offering to God the Father by Our Lord Jesus Christ, Eternal High Priest. The Bogus Ordo sometimes pretends to be the same thing, but it is at heart a Happy Meal and a Community Gathering.
Trad Inc continues to smoke the Hopium. Pope Provost is not Pope Frantic, they keep telling us. Well, no he is not. And those of you among the Fossils will note that we have seen this before. Remember the first year of the Pontificate of JP2??? Hope was in the air. Maybe he would free the Mass, and revert to some Pre-Vatican II practices.
Meanwhile, Trad Inc is also telling us not to be Rad Trads. Stop insulting the Bogus Ordo. Let us be nice and polite to our Satanic Pederasts in charge. If so, maybe we will be given our place in the Big Tent.
The medieval Roman Catholic church was so corrupt that the Reformation was necessary and good. It seems that maybe that's what's called for again today. The Catholic church has become functionally Protestant with members running the gamut of beliefs and practices. As a group, Evangelicals are more pro-life than Catholics. The only thing that makes them different from Protestants is the Primacy of the Pope.
"As a group, Evangelicals are more pro-life than Catholics." When I was young, the Southern Baptist Convention was a pro-abortion organization. Evangelicals as a group are pro contraception. Divorce and remarriage has been rampant among Evangelicals for a long time. The Catholic Church is the only organization that has kept the true teachings of Christ in regard to all those categories.
The Catholic quorums in the Rosary groups, and the Catholic identities of those arrested for praying outside of British abortion clinics leave no room for doubt. Itโs not the โEvangelicalsโ leading the pro-life charge.
The Catholic Reformation, called the Counter-Reformation, was necessary & did immeasurable good (Jesuits, Council of Trent & its reforms, etc.), but the misnamed Protestant Reformation was actually a diabolically-inspired Revolution leading to countless evils.
The Church has always suffered from persecution from without & corruption from within, but has always been the one & only Ark of Salvation. The medieval Church was healthy at times & decadent at times. During the Renaissance period in which the Protestant revolt took place, decadence & corruption were more prevalent than normal, but that is no reason to break from & then persecute the Church & engage in a widespread frenzy of iconoclastic & other destruction, moral & social chaos & murder.
See my other comment on the present state of the Church.
There was plenty of persecution, mayhem, and murder on both sides. Ever hear of St. Bartholomew's Day massacre? Sadly, religious wars were only too common, and there is much to repent of by all.
Keep in mind that in a Catholic country or kingdom, heretics deserve persecution. And St B Day was a response, albeit excessive, to repeated Huguenot murderous & destructive terrorism. The same goes for pogroms against Jews.
Do you also think the Inquisition was unjustified?
You mean the Luther guy who was a fat monk and married a nun and pimped other nuns to French nobility? The prots have basically splintered in to 40000 pieces of shit each with a different interpretation of a Bible that was created by the Catholic Church. And then preach sola scriptura when thereโs nothing in the bible sola scriptura. Prot churches are nothing more than gay satanic worship Centers with rainbow robed female bishops, trannys and climate goons.
Imagine if Luther had become Pope, and enacted his reforms from Rome. ... Maybe we don't need to imagine that. Maybe this actually happened, almost 500 years later.
There is another side to this that remains unseen if it is unspoken. Back in the 1950s when the Russian Marxists descended upon the United States (at Columbia University through a pseudo โstudent exchange programโ) they drafted their plan of attack to decimate our culture. Number one on their list was the destruction of marriage and the nuclear family. If you look at the 60s, which I lived through, you will see how successful they were.
While we must look at this primarily from a Catholic perspective, we must also look at this as an assault against our culture which has been performing nearly flawlessly for well over 50 years now. We must stop this or we will literally lose ourselves.
Put simply, the whole Vatican II religion - and it IS a new religion - is a Judeo-Masonic creation, beginning with the overthrow of a validly elected pope in 1958, whitesmoke1958.com, most of its sacraments are invalid:
and its Mass may very well be the prophesied "abomination of desolation," unless that term applies to the entire counterfeit V2 church itself. Only a bad tree bears bad fruit, and there is no fruit from the V2 church that isn't rotten to the core.
Another part of the Secret can be inferred from a letter of Cardinal Luigi Ciappi to his friend Professor Baumgarten in which he wrote, โIn the Third Secret it is foretold, among other things, that the great apostasy in the Church will begin at the top.โ "The top" means the papacy, & that can only happen when an invalidly elected pope usurps the Chair of St Peter, as happened at the 1958 papal conclave.
"Rome will lose the faith and become the seat of the Antichrist. The Church will be in eclipse. The world will be in dismay." - Our Lady of La Salette, 1846
All it takes is ONE drop of poison to contaminate the true Faith. That is what the post-Vatican II antichurch and their antipopes have given the whole world.
Jesus showed mercy to the woman caught in the act of adultery who was threatened with stone-throwing (John 8:1-11). Jesus did not condemn her. But, He also did not hold back from directing: Go and sin no more.
Your Question: "What kind of Church bends over backwards to affirm couples living in fornication, but reserves its harshest discipline for those trying to worship as the saints did?"
I forget who first said it, but ignorance is not a sacrament. A sin is still a sin objectively, and the Church has a responsibility to teach the difference between what is a sinful act and what is a virtuous one. To blur that line is to perpetuate defective formation and ever increasing sinful activity.
Because marriage is a natural right. I might not have exactly the right words here, but I asked the same question several years ago. Only Catholics are held to Canon Law. Thatโs why Anglicans can marry in a registry office and itโs considered a valid Christian marriage (if both are baptised) until proven otherwise.
In my Church there was a similar situation of a couple coming into the Church. But the priest told them to live as brother and sister until after they were confirmed and then married in the Catholic Church

Thank you, Katie!
Your voice needs to be heard!
Good stuff. Iโm evangelical, but I appreciate your strong stance. Wishy-washy faith doesnโt benefit anyone.
Thank you!

Meanwhile... Our Lady of Fatima, who??
"What kind of Church..."
Maybe a church that is undergoing a reformation (capital R Reformation, think Martin Luther) but led from within, by its own leaders?
Maybe a church that is only wears a skinsuit of its former self? A kind of costume party? A masquerade?
The bishops seem to no longer believe the church's own teachings.

So true.
Itโs necessary to distinguish Christian pro-life opinion from Christian pro-life activism.

Even Benedict XVI when cardinal credibly revealed to Fr Dollinger, a close friend of his, that the Third Secret of Fatima included the foretelling of "a bad council and a bad mass": onepeterfive.com/cardinal-ratzinger-not-published-whole-third-secret-fatima
That coincides with what we can know of Pius XII's unpublicized reading of the Third Secret in the company of various chosen prelates in 1957:

True...but all those drops combined have added up to a swimming pool's worth, or more.

Answer: A fornicating Church.
Archbishop Lefebvre? The schismatic?
