As has been noted on this site so many hundreds upon hundreds of times before, the modern civil state is based upon a welter of Judeo-Masonic, naturalistic, anti-Incarnational, religiously indifferent and Pelagian principles that can do nothing but divide people in various ceaselessly warring camps within the framework of “freedom” and “democracy.”

Herewith is part two (and concluding) part of this series.

The hour is late/early again.

Non-tax-deductible financial gifts are very much needed at this time.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us. 

Saint Gregory Nazianzen, pray for us.

This a republished reflection on the Feast of the Apparition of Saint Michael the Archangel. 

Part two of my current two-part series is still a work in progress.

Although the recent magnetic resononance imaging of my brain revealed no tumors and no evidence of having suffered any strokes along with the fact the mild global atrophy that was first diagnosed five years ago has no advanced beyond that stage, the imaging did show that there has been an increase in what is called "ischemic small vessel disease," which is a contributing factor to my balance problems, the loss of some short-term memory, and my constant state of fatigue. 

Thus, there is a pathological reason for the decrease in my ability to complete as many articles in a single week as was the case in the past, but I assure you that I continue to work every day as hard and for as long as I am able to do so. 

Each cross that is sent to us is a great gift by which we can give honor and glory to the Most Blessed Trinity as the consecrated slaves of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary as we seek to make reparation for our own sins and those of the whole world.  Ave Crux, Spes Unica, Paschale quae fers gaudium! (Hail, O Holy Cross, our only hope, you who bring Easter joy!)

Work on part-two will continue later today. Thank you for your patience.

Oh, I know that today is Pachamama Bob Prevost's first anniversary of the commencement of his masquerade as "Pope Leo XIV." However, I think that the most recent original article on this site, The Conciliar Revolutionaries Do Not Believe in God. Period, and its second part representing a fitting way to celebrate a marathon year of apostasy and betrayal worthy of the late Argentine Apostate himself. 

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us. 

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us and keep us.

The conciliar dicastery for the so-called “synod of bishops” has issued a new document to reaffirmed unrepentant sinners in their lives of wickedness.

Despite all their denials to the contrary, conciliar revolutionaries have produced a document that is nothing other than an apologia for situation ethics.

Such men clearly do not believe in the true God of Divine Revelation, the Most Holy Trinity, but in a false god of their own perverse imaging as God is mutable who changes with the “times.”

Part two of this commentary will appear tomorrow, May 7, 2026, the Feast of Saint Stanislaus.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint John the Evangelist, pray for us.

This is a republished version of a reflection on the saintly life and work of  the great Dominican, Pope Saint Pius X, who is indeed quite a contrast to the life and the work of the conciliar revolutionaries. 

No, I could not complete my next original article yesterday. However, I was working it until just a short time before I began revising this reflection. Manana? I hope so.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Pope Saint Pius V pray for us.

Given the rapid pace of dit for publicatievelopments, I had to tear up several versions of this commentary before finalizing it for publication at this time on Monday, May 4, 2026, the Feast of Saint Monica, the mother of Saint Augustine.

With this commentary out of the way, therefore, I turn my attention to other matters and thus it is that a new article should appear by tomorrow morning, Tuesday, May 5, 2026, the Feast of Pope Saint Pius V.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us,

Saint Monica, pray for us.

Saint Augustine, pray for us.

This is a brief reflection of the Finding of the Holy Cross by Saint Helena.

We must be ever aware of the fact that Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ will bestow all manner of crosses upon us each day. It is essential for us to ask Our Lady to send us the graces we need to lift high the cross and to remember that no matter the size of the cross nor the length of time we are called to bear it, life is short, eternity is forever. Redemptive suffering is the path to our sanctification and salvation.

Ave Crux, Spes Unica!

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Pope Saint Alexander and Saints Juvenal, Eventius, and Theodulus, pray for us.

I am offering to you today a brief reflection on Saint Athanasius of Alexandria, whose feast is celebrated today, May 2, 2026, the First Saturday in the month of Our Lady, May.

Thank you for your patience as I continue to revise my next original commentary in light of various developments.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Athanasius, pray for us.

Today, Friday May 1, 2026, is the Feast of Saints Philip and James in fully traditional Catholic chapels where the General Roman Calendar of 1954 is followed (it is the Feast of Saint Joseph the Worker in those chapels following the calendar in place at the time of the death of Pope Pius XII on October 9, 1958

Today’s article is a slight revision and republication of a very brief and wholly inadequate reflection on the life of the great mystic, stigmatist and spiritual directress of souls, Saint Catherine of Siena, T.O.P., whose feast day is the day after that of the Protomartyr of the Order of Preachers, Saint Peter of Verona (Saint Peter Martyr).

Saint Catherine was calumniated during her life, and she was blamed for having precipitated the Great Western Schism by convincing Pope Gregory XI to return to return to Rome in 1378. She suffered all such calumny with joy.

What’s our excuse for grumbling and/or murmuring about our crosses and the state of chaos in which we live in this time of apostasy and betrayal?

Remember, everything thing that happens to us has been ordained by the hand of God Himself with exquisite perfection. Saint Catherine of Siena never lost an opportunity to suffer well. Indeed, she begged to suffer more and more for love of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. So should we.

The need to raise six hundred dollars remains. Please consider making a non-tax-deductible gift if it possible for you to do so.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Catherine of Siena, T.O.P., pray for us.
