How obsessed these women are with power and how obsessed these sodomites are for perverted sex with children.

The Holy Spirit will use them for great good, and if I wasn't in one of the FEW good diocese left in this country, I would have been worshipping with the SSPX a year and a half ago. I still anticipate I probably will after the probable schism/dissent fest of a synod this fall. Time will tell, but for Heaven's sake, stay in the Ark....you have a good option. To shun them because they recognize Peter (while fully recognizing his problems and the problems of the council) is to embrace protestantism. And quite frankly, that's what Orthodoxy is....protestantism with beautiful vestments, holding Christ hostage.<br /><br />Thought this was beautiful; good for Rorate for posting it.<br /><br />http://rorate-caeli.blogspot.com/2015/01/update-on-new-sspx-seminary-building.html#more<br /><br />These guys just SO get it; and men like Fr.

It is the only place the Catholic Church survives.<br />But I am disappointed in the SSPX for their negotiations and trusting this Pope Francis. Also, I am disappointed that except for afew Orders, the SSPX has not put much of an effort towards establishing traditionalist branches of great Orders of priests and nuns which, thanks to the disaster of Vatican II and the terrible leadership of Popes such as Francis, that they will not survive. They would achieve great results if they helped establish traditional branches of the Jesuits, Trappists, Daughters of Charity, Sisters of Mercy, Maryknoll Missionaries, etc, etc.<br />Also, I would not officially convert to another Faith, but I would attend the Greek Orthodox Church. To convert to something else I think is what you are referring to. I would not convert, just attend. And wait until this Francis and his people are gone in afew years.......or perhaps, shorter than that.<br />When Francis arrived in Sri Lanka, he and his aids quickly canceled a meeting he was scheduled to have because he suddenly didn't feel well. They said exhaustion, etc. It passed, but it is a sign that Francis will not be here for long.<br />Don't be surprised anyone, if we flip on our TV's one moring, and find out that he died suddenly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4404498638452030181.post-54266598022544041492015-01-20T05:35:31.592-08:002015-01-20T05:35:31.592-08:00I didn't realize how bad this Lazzati guy was....I didn't realize how bad this Lazzati guy was. It makes all kind of sense that francis would make him a Servant of God....(his kinda servant to his 'god of surprises'). I still find it utterly inconceivable that Paul VI will soon be named "Blessed".....what an affront against all that is holy.<br /><br />My goodness but we've got some real vipers loose in the garden don't we? Ravasi, Kasper, Marx, Forte, feminist theologians (of both sexes)...and one of the most poisonous vipers on the very throne of Peter....inconceivable. All I can envision is the scene in the underground chamber from Raiders of the Lost Ark with the myriad poisonous asps all writhing together in an orgiastic ball of sick.<br /><br />Perhaps it's a good thing that francis refuses to wear the mozzetta.<br /><br />And Anon at 4:16....don't leave the Faith. The SSPX was allowed to flourish for those such as you. If you go Orthodox you're outside of the Ark by your own choosing.

I say this because of the enormous abuses, scandals, and outrageous behavior of priests,nuns,bishops, cardinals, and now even Popes that has happened in my lifetime.<br />For a brief period, 2005-2013, I had hope that perhaps the Catholic Church had turned the corner, that Catholic Tradition and the Tridentine Latin Mass were once again given pride of place....or at least respect.<br />I was proud that we had a Pope who actually acted and looked like a real Pope! Like the kind of Pope my dear parents grew up with (Pope Pius XII and John XXIII).<br />I went to the seminary for a year, hoping that despite what I had seen in the Church, there the Catholic Church would still be Catholic. I was wrong. I was in the seminary one week when I knew , because of what I saw, that I was wrong. The Mass was not preserved there...it was made up every day from scratch. What we were taught was all "in light of Vatican II". it was as if there was no Catholic Faith until 1965.<br />I have gone to other Churches. I love the Greek Orthodox Church and its rich traditions. Sitting in that Church and listening to the chants, I can actually believe that it was the exact same way 1,500 years ago. And that is an awesome feeling. Nothing there is "make it up as we go along:."<br />There is an Episcopal Church near my home that I often visit.....not for services....just to look inside, because it dates from before the American Revolution (church built, 1715). The graveyard has stones of people dead 200+ years. It is fascinating to think what the neighborhood, and the Church must have looked like then. When I do think about that, I think :Yes, but back then, we Catholics still had a real Mass, and a real Pope". We didn't have a Pope so uncultured or uncouth as to talk about punching people, or naming comments like "Catholics shouldn't breed like rabbits!"( Pope Francis in Manila).. It visiting the Episcopal Church, I picked up their prayer book that they use for Sunday services. They don't have the option of going to Mass on Saturday, so you don't have to bother on Sunday. I knew that their services were in English. I also knew that their services for 400+ years were considered heretical by the Roman Catholic Faith. But I was shocked that the English they use is so beautiful, so majestic, with many "Thees and Thous", and classic language. Not the modern, common, every day language of the Catholic Mass. Even the improved Mass texts still sound like common every day speech......they don't have a "holy" sound to them.<br />So, if under this "pope" and his people, there is an increase of women theologians, feminism, the promotion of the idea of women priests and the discarding of the holy tradition of priestly celibacy, I think I will finally say "enough is enough" with the Catholic Church.....and go to the Greek Orthodox Church full time. Not convert, just attend.<br />And I'll wait until we have a Catholic Pope again to come back.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
