An Unforeseen Resurgence

Nearly three generations of Latin Rite baptized Catholics know of no other Mass than the present-day Novus Ordo liturgy, also known as Pope Paul VI’s Mass, which was the result of the Second Vatican Council. However, that Mass is not being celebrated at St. Peter’s – rather it is the Traditional Latin Mass.

Synodal Witchcraft

By declaring through the Dicastery of the Doctrine of the Faith that “a transsexual–even one who has also undergone hormone treatment and sex reassignment surgery–can receive baptism,” Pope Francis is recognizing the legitimacy of the entire ideology of transgenderism.

Is Men Wearing Skirts Historical or Homosexual: The “LGBT” Movement and Blurring Gender Lines

The secular media kept repeating, “men wore dresses in the past so this is normal behavior and not emasculation.” Some even dared to call it “masculine” for a man to wear a dress, as Styles did. Confused Marxists straight out of college like to claim that big bad “ye olde Christian Patriarchy” has merely trained everyone to think that there is something seriously wrong with a homo wearing women’s clothing. They may smugly assert that it’s no different than a Scotsman wearing a kilt, and everything we’ve ever known to be good or bad in society is simply evidence of “hateful, tyrannical Patriarchy.” In their eyes, we have all essentially been brainwashed into thinking one thing is immoral and another is not, when in their mind, everything bad is good and vice versa. All of this, of course, is nonsense. Sane people recognize the colossal difference between kilts and cross-dressing.

The Sixth Seal: “And the sun became black as sackcloth of hair” (Apoc. 6: 12)

Among the biblical prophecies about cosmic events that will occur before the end of times, some mention the darkening of the sun. As expected, this sign is repeatedly mentioned in the Old Testament. The prophet Joel tells us, “the earth hath trembled, the heavens are moved: the sun and moon are darkened, and the stars have withdrawn their shining” ( Joel 2:10). In the book of the prophet Ezekiel, God Himself speaks, announcing the consequences of His Providential intervention in history:

Francis and the Globalist Tower of Babel

The plot thickens. It is being reported that Pope Francis is about to cut Cardinal Burke’s salary and remove him from his apartment in Rome. At the same time, the nuncio to the United States, Cardinal Christophe Pierre, just gave an interview to America Magazine, in which he scolds the US Bishops Conference for lacking due appreciation for the Aparecida Document. It’s all in my new Remnant Underground: FRANCIS FATIGUE: Even Argentina’s Had Enough

Four Responses to Francis That Are More Productive Than Calling Him an Anti-Pope

With Vatican II and its aftermath, God has permitted an unprecedented crisis in the Church which, in various ways, appears to conflict with common understandings of the Church’s indefectibility. Some faithful Catholics consider that the gravity of scandals from the post-Vatican II popes challenges that indefectibility, leading them to conclude that the Chair of Peter has been vacant since Pope Pius XII. Others, sharing the same general concerns, have concluded that a prolonged period without a pope would itself throw into question the Church’s indefectibility. Traditional Catholics have debated these issues for several decades, often vehemently.

Your Friends in Pennsylvania

That historic catchphrase from the 1980s: “You have a friend in Pennsylvania” still rings true 40-years hence, but with a malicious twist. Your friend is a willing Pennsylvania abortionist.

The Warning of Saint Bonaventure and his Interpretation of the Tree of Knowledge

If we were to inquire of Saint Bonaventure (1221–1274) about the root of the current crisis in the Church, we might be surprised by his response. The Seraphic Doctor, deeply engaged in issues pertaining to the end of history, condemns the apocalyptic dimension of a strictly rational-speculative theology and its resulting implications. The proliferation of this speculative thinking, influenced by Aristotle and Averroes, had given rise to heretical doctrines such as the eternity of the world and causal fatalism. For Bonaventure, this trend signified the unmistakable indication of the opening of the bottomless pit mentioned in the Book of Revelation (9, 1-2) and the emergence of the smoke of heresies that obscured the “sun” of supernatural faith. A more thorough examination reveals the underlying essence of his apocalyptic warning: the grave distortion of the interpretation of the sacred texts of the Bible. To which, I would say, must be added the spread of those heresies that deny the dogma of biblical inerrancy [i] and the inspiration of all texts recognized as canonical by the Council of Trent (1545–1563).

Ask Father: Your Questions Answered

Dear Father, Re-reading Genesis as it’s been years, and I need someone to enlighten me: Why does Lot offer his daughters to the city rabble if they will leave his houseguests (the angels) alone?! It reads like a noble sacrifice but that’s seriously messed up and I need answers, I’m guessing I’m missing something. Thanks,

Holy Baptism and the Symbol of the Scallop Shell

In the case of all the Sacraments of the Church, according to the Roman Catechism (1566), there is an essential part—described in the terms of the doctrine of Saint Thomas Aquinas through the concepts of “matter” and “form”–and certain ceremonies added to it. If the elimination or improper use of the essential part invalidates the sacrament, the omission of any other part is also strictly prohibited–except in exceptional situations:

The Bishops’ Jolly Road to Hell

He suggested that previous Popes – not to mention God the Father – have failed to understand the complexities of human existence, by saying that Pope Francis (using his unique Gnostic powers, no doubt) “… is able to speak into issues that are real for people, by listening to them and not dismissing them, and allowing them to sit where they are so that they may come to a maturity.”
