As Robert Francis Prevost/Leo XIV anti-pontificated about the necessity of anyone claiming to be pro-life to oppose the death penalty and the “harsh treatment” being meted out to illegal immigrants in addition being opposed to abortion by way of defending his friend Blase Cupich’s expressed intention to bestow an award upon pro-abortion, pro-sodomite United States Senator Richard Durbin (who has since declined the award), part two of my series about Prevost/Leo’s interview with Crux will be delayed until Saturday. Part twenty-six of “Benedictus Qui Venit in Nomini Domine, Hosanna in Excelsis” will follow thereafter.

Our Lady, Queen of the Holy Angels, pray for us.

Our Holy Guardian Angels, pray for us.

This reflection on our Holy Guardian Angels is brief. Our devotion to and reliance upon our Guardian Angels, however, must be lifelong. 

A new commentary will be posted within fifteen minutes.

Although I will have part two of my current series posted by this time tomorrow, today’s commentary focuses on President Donald John Trump’s boasting at the Charlie Kirk secular canonization on Sunday, September 21, 2025, of hating his “opponents.” Such is not the teaching of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus, and it is well past the time for those who still believe that a serial blasphemer who is continuing to enable Israeli’s genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza to wake up and realize that no one on the face of this earth is exempt from forgiving others as Our Lord Himself forgives us so readily in the Sacred Tribunal of Penance.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Remigius, pray for us.

Before I started work on formatting this republished reflection, I noticed that yesterday's reflection was published in a "filtered" format that rendered it into gibberish. I had to shut down the computer before the work on the Drupal platform had been saved, meaning that the work was lost when I reopened the computer. I just did not push the "Full Html" button as I normally do, and apologize for the problem, which has been corrected.

Now, today's republished reflection is on the life and the work of Saint Jerome, the great great Dalmatian who put the love of God above all else. Consider just one quotation from the work of this prolific writer and translator of the Bible into the Latin Vulgate:

"It is a smaller sin to follow evil which you think is good, than not to venture to defend what you know for certain is good. If we cannot endure threats, injustice, poverty, how shall we overcome the flames of Babylon? Let us not lose by hollow peace what we have preserved by war. I should be sorry to allow my fears to teach me faithlessness, when Christ has put the true faith in the power of my choice." (Saint Jerome, Prologue to the Treatise Against the Pelagians.)

How many traditionally-minded Catholics who are as of yet attached to the structures of the counterfeit church of conciliarism who know for certain that it is not good to praise false religions or to enter places of false worship or to treat the "clergy" of false religions as having a mission from the true God of Divine Revelation to serve and save souls refuse to do what is good, that is, to defend the honor and glory and majesty God and His Sacred Deposit Faith in order to indemnify the author of long-since repealed Summorum Pontificum, the late Joseph Alois Ratzinger/Benedict XVI, whose successor, the late Jorge Mario Bergoglio, laid bare for all the world to see that he is "worried" by those who "want to return to the past"?

We must always defend what we know to be true as servants of the greater honor and glory of God.

Saint Jerome did.

What's our excuse?

The next original article will appear tomorrow, the Feast of Saint Remigius.

I ask for your prayers for my dear wife, Sharon, who turns but a mere sixty-two years of age of age today. Thank you.

Finally, this is the third anniversary of the death of Rebecca Lynn Adams Dupree, the daughter of longtime readers of this site, Michael and Sandra Adams, in Amman, Jordan. Please remember Mrs. Dupree's immortal soul and the needs of her parents, two brothers and sister today. 

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Jerome, pray for us.

Today is the Feast of the Dedication of the Church of Saint Michael the Archangel in Mount Gargano, Italy. 

It is interesting to note that, given the rationalism that underlies Modernists' rejection of the supernatural, that this feast is not celebrated as such in the counterfeit church of conciliarism as it is based upon the apparition of Saint Michael the Archangel on May 8, 490. The architects of the Protestant and Judeo-Masonic Novus Ordo liturgical service went to great lengths to edit out almost all references to apparitions, Indeed, none other than the old Rosicurcian Mason himself, Angelo Roncalli/John XXIII, suppressed the Feast of the Apparition of Saint Michael the Archangel on May 8 entirely in the first wave of his Jansenist anti-liturgical changes that went into effect on Sunday, December 3, 1960, the First Sunday of Advent, and the feast that we celebrate today, was eliminated by Annibale Bugnini and company and replaced with the combined Feast of Saints Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael. 

Believing Catholics, however, know that Holy Mother Church cannot deceive us, and that her Sacred Liturgy is guided by none other than the Third Person of the Most Blessed Trinity, God the Holy Ghost. It is thus that we celebrated the Feast of Dedication of the Church of Saint Michael the Archangel today, Monday, September 29, 2025.

Our Lady, Queen of the Angels, pray for us.

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us and protect us.

This commentary focuses on Robert Francis Prevost/Leo XIV’s answers to Elise Ann Allen of Crux concerning his openness to both sodomy and the possibility of “changing” doctrine of “attitudes” change first.

I will have another commentary or two about other of the false “pontiff’s” answer in a day or two.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Wenceslasus, pray for us.

Today, Sunday, September 28, 2025, the Sixteenth Sunday after Pentecost, is also the commemorated the feast of the great Saint Wenceslaus, King of Bohemia, who was murdered by his own brother, who hated the fact that that he, King Wenceslaus, was everything that he, Boleslaus, hated, namely, pious and devoted, a servant of Christ the King, a just ruler who ruled to advance the common temporal good in light of man's Last End. Boleslaus hated the fact that his brother, our dear saint, loved the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and baked the Eucharistic bread with his own hands. This should give us pause for reflection in our own circumstances today when so many of our own relatives and one-time friends and acquaintances might hate us simply for being Catholic, no less Catholics who try, despite our sins and failings, to adhere to everything taught by Holy Mother Church from time immemorial. Saint Wenceslaus was a king who was prostrate before THE King, Christ the King, in life who adores him in Heaven face to face.

This is the concluding part of a two-part commentary.

As is usually the case, there is a learning curve when adapting to use of a new computer. However, I am back in business and hope to have another original commentary for you tomorrow, the Feast of Saints Cornelius and Cyprian.

Saints Cyprian and Justina, pray for us

Today, Friday, September 26, 2025, is the Feast of the North American Martyrs, the eight Jesuits who gave up their lives for the Holy Faith in what are now parts of Canada and upstate New York between 1642 and 1649, and the Commemoration of  Saint Cyprian and Justina here in the United States of America.

This brief reflection contrasts the life and martyrdom of the eight men killed between 1642 and 1649 and the conciliar "saints". Each of the North American Martyr (Isaac Jogues, Rene Goupil, Jean Lalande, Gabriel Lalemant, Noel Chabanel, Anthony Daniel, Charles Garnier, and John de Brebeuf) shed their blood to Catholicize the upper reaches of North America. They were not interested in "inculturating" the Catholic liturgy with the pagan superstitions and barbaric practices of the Iroquois. They were concerned only about attempting to convert the heathens to the true Faith and to plant the seeds for the conversion of the land in which their noble missionary work had taken them.

Can we do any less than they?

We must seek to "keep it Catholic" at all times as we seek to plant the seeds for the conversion of this nation to become the Catholic States of America.

A new commentary will be posted within ten minutes of this reflection's republication.

Although I am working on two other commentaries at this time, I have decided to focus on Rainbow Blase Cupich’s decision to honor the egregious pro-death, pro-perversity Richard Durbin.

Part one provides a detailed history of conciliar inaction against pro-death Catholic in public life while part two will add a bit more to that history while concentrating on Durbin’s demagogic support of baby butchery and his bitter denunciations of pro-life advocates.

Our Lady of Ransom, pray for us.
