Corona Hemorrhage : Minus 50-60 Percent for Mass Attendance


The Church's corona measures with the month-long suspension of mass and numerous restrictions that continue to this day have led to an enormous bloodletting of believers in some countries. 
After the re-admission of public masses, only some returned to the churches. Many have stayed away from them to this day and will probably remain so in the long term.

The Church paid a huge price for their servility with which they followed the governments in the Corona crisis while Pope Francis, who issued the most radical measures, was still cheered.

At the beginning of the Corona crisis, voices could still be saying that people in need were making their way through to the Church. However, they hadn't counted on bishops who would prevent that.


In some countries, after the reopening of the churches, half of the pews and the seats were removed from the houses of worship or locked with all sorts of ribbons and cords and made inaccessible. At best, every second space can be used according to the post-corona openings. But although the capacity has been halved in this way, in many places not even the remaining spaces are filled.


Many pastors have to be happy when they reach this 50 percent church attendance, say reports from Italy and Spain alike. It doesn't look any better in other countries. The fear of infection is only one reason for this. No less decisive is the failure of the shepherds in the corona crisis. They sealed off the church so that it could no longer hold many people. The shepherds also didn't seem interested at all because they were too busy obeying the state guidelines and at the same time denying every spiritual dimension of the virus epidemic. So there was no Mass, funerals only as an emergency measure, no weddings, no confirmations: the total clear cutting of the Sacraments.


The sick have pilgrimaged for more than 160 years to Lourdes to receive grace as a means to recover or to endure the suffering with God's help. However, with Corona, Lourdes has been locked and the pools are today as well. The Church has withheld aid for those in needWorse still: it gives the impression that what brings salvation and blessings is a threat and makes you sick.


No, Lourdes doesn't make you sick, it helps. And no, Holy Communion does not make you sick, it heals.

A Church whose highest representatives convey the opposite cannot expect to be taken seriously by the people. It deprives itself of its credibility by denying its supernatural nature and only presenting itself as a human organization - one among many.


The bloodletting to be recorded is enormous, because the shaking of the salvific reality of the Church is enormous. The Church has closed its gates and locked out the believers. She has given them to understand that the virus is more powerful than God, which is why it is more important to isolate, isolate and barricade oneself. The implicit consequence: Mass and the Holy Eucharist are not so important. Health is more important. The Mass can also be seen on the Internet and on television, if you want.


In California, as LifeSiteNews reported, numerous Protestant church pastors have opposed the Corona measures of California's left-wing government and not kept it. They feel confirmed today. The Catholic bishops, on the other hand, were doggedly trying, like model students, to meet every state requirement. They even forgot to speak out against unacceptable government projects in other areas.


The consequences have been evident since the public services were re-admitted, but the bishops remain shyly silent about it. Church media does not address this bloodletting. They are not talking about the massive gaps that the Corona craze has torn in God's people.


A new autumn has begun for the Church, and once again it is her bishops' fault. And winter is getting closer.

  1. Good point about the "lack of a supernatural".

  2. "Peter Comestor" thinks that a showing of Trump's imperfections are of relevance. Our fight is the end of heretics and enemies of the Church, to deprive Her its history and identity and Teachings, by limiting the right to vote, speak, assemble, be elected for office those hostile to The Church, and a Catholic Constitution or King. Donald Trump is, at best, a stepping stone. But he is not the end goal to Make America Catholic Again.

  3. In some ways, this Corona crises self-inflicted has a silver lining. We have always wanted liberals to leave the Church if they are indifferent or hostile to Church Teaching. We have always wanted the ones who came to seek God to come and not out of some habit or social activity; those coming to receive Communion because it's what others do.

    Once again, the Protestant pastors have less to worry about because their organizational structures Don’t permit them to be sued as effectively

  5. Excellent summary of Corona NuChurch. Covid exposed the putrid episcopacy and effeminate clergy of the modernist V2 church. The fag hag laity and homo priest ecology that has dominated most parishes for many years has locked the faithful out in 2020 and denied them the sacraments. The sacraments are the ONLY reason for the clergy.

  6. @"Anonymous",traditionalists have always been shut out of our parishes. Maybe you are right. But, We have set up parallel parishes where SSPX and indult Masses compete with Bergoglian "rainbow" liturgies. Don't the liberal Catholics go for the "social" aspect. But in their liturgies there is no more handshake of peace, no coffee hour, no guitar practice, no old ladies yearning for attention, no girls with short shorts hoping to get some stares from boys. Communion in the paws is nothing new, and the friends and family present no longer pressure anyone to take or lay distribute Communion for fear of contamination.
    Maybe I'm wrong on this. But it makes me think that it could make Communion less popular as a habit or modernist fad.

  7. the cafeteria ones will leave, but the ones who wholly are into Francis will try to say "everything's okay" and hold onto power. we shall see eventually, if and when traditionalists become majorities at parishes. maybe even some bloodletting to sedes may awaken the hierarchy. after all, if everyone is looking up masses on youtube, it's not hard to find a tlm, whether indult or not.

    about the Prot pastors having lack of hierarchy work for them in times like these, well of course, America is a lawyerly nation founded by them and made to work for them. and even then, many still spew heresy, which is counterproductive against any rebel services they offer. besides, it used to be that the Church couldn't get sued, even when it was more hierarchical than now... only since allowing secularists to rule has this been challenged.
