As I am about to lose internet service, all I can write at the moment is this is a brief commentary on the belief that one can "reject" the "program" of a Sovereign Pontiff.

Not so.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Peter Celestine, pray for us.

Saint Pudentiana, pray for us.

"And the eleven disciples went into Galilee, unto the mountain where Jesus had appointed them. And seeing him they adored: but some doubted. And Jesus coming, spoke to them, saying: All power is given to me in heaven and in earth. Going therefore, teach ye all nations; baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world." (Matthew 28: 16-20.)

'There is no "expiration" date on this command. Indeed, the commentary in the Bishop Richard Challoner version of the Douay-Rheims Bible explains that the command is in force until Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ comes in glory on the Last Day to judge the living and the dead and that His Church could never go astray, meaning, of course, that it is impossible for the Catholic Church to give any impression at all that God is pleased with false religions such as Mohammedanism and Talmudic Judaism, which is what the conciliar "popes" have done consistently in the past fifty-nine years, having reached the point of complete absurdity now under Jorge Mario Bergoglio:

18 "All power"... See here the warrant and commission of the apostles and their successors, the bishops and pastors of Christ's church. He received from his Father all power in heaven and in earth: and in virtue of this power, he sends them (even as his Father sent him, St. John 20. 21) to teach and disciple, not one, but all nations; and instruct them in all truths: and that he may assist them effectually in the execution of this commission, he promises to be with them, not for three or four hundred years only, but all days, even to the consummation of the world. How then could the Catholic Church ever go astray; having always with her pastors, as is here promised, Christ himself, who is the way, the truth, and the life. St. John 14."

The Catholic Church can never go astray. She is infallible. She does not give us any "new ecclesiology" or "hermeneutic of continuity and discontinuity" to deconstruct the meaning of dogmatic truth, thus attacking the essence of the nature of God Himself, or false ecumenism. Her pastors do not esteem the symbols and values and places of false religions and they do not engage in "inter-religious" "prayer" services. Her pastors do not teach that false religions have a "right" from God to propagate their false beliefs publicly and they do not praise those false beliefs for being "able" to "contribute" to the building of a "better" world. Pastors of the Catholic Church insist always and at all times that Catholicism is the one and only foundation of personal and social order with no equivocation, uncertainty, ambiguity or obscurity of any kind. As Pope Pius XI noted in Mortalium Animos, January 6, 1928, there is need to "strain" to "find" Catholicism in the pronouncements made by Holy Mother Church:

"For the teaching authority of the Church, which in the divine wisdom was constituted on earth in order that revealed doctrines might remain intact for ever, and that they might be brought with ease and security to the knowledge of men, and which is daily exercised through the Roman Pontiff and the Bishops who are in communion with him, has also the office of defining, when it sees fit, any truth with solemn rites and decrees, whenever this is necessary either to oppose the errors or the attacks of heretics, or more clearly and in greater detail to stamp the minds of the faithful with the articles of sacred doctrine which have been explained. " (Pope Pius XI, Mortalium Animos, January 6, 1928.)

How has the integrity of the doctrine of the First Commandment been stamped on "minds of the faithful" by the words and deeds of the conciliar "popes"?

Christ the King has taken His throne in Heaven. We must ascend with Him in our thoughts and prayers at all times as we refuse to have our minds and hearts poisoned by the words and the deeds of the false shepherds of the counterfeit church of conciliarism who dare to blaspheme God so regularly and so openly and/or who refuse to open their mouths in defense of the honor and majesty and glory of God when He is so blasphemed and offended.

As the angel made clear to the Eleven as they looked into the sky as Our Lord disappeared from their sight on this day, there is work for us to do:

"They therefore who were come together, asked him, saying: Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? But he said to them: It is not for you to know the times or moments, which the Father hath put in his own power: But you shall receive the power of the Holy Ghost coming upon you, and you shall be witnesses unto me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and even to the uttermost part of the earth. And when he had said these things, while they looked on, he was raised up: and a cloud received him out of their sight. And while they were beholding him going up to heaven, behold two men stood by them in white garments. " Who also said: Ye men of Galilee, why stand you looking up to heaven? This Jesus who is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come, as you have seen him going into heaven. Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount that is called Olivet, which is nigh Jerusalem, within a sabbath day's journey. And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode Peter and John, James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James of Alpheus, and Simon Zelotes, and Jude the brother of James. All these were persevering with one mind in prayer with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren." (Acts 1: 6-14.)

Yes, we can't stand around all day long looking into the sky. There is work for us to do before Our Lord comes for us at the moment of our own Particular Judgments, which can come at any hour and on any day, and at the end of the world to judge the living and the dead. 

The work that we have to do is to sanctify and to save our immortal souls as members of the Catholic Church, work that requires us to be attentive to the graces that were won for us on the wood of the Holy Cross by the shedding of every single drop of Our Blessed Lord Saviour Jesus Christ's Most Precious Blood and the flow into our hearts and souls through the loving hands of Our Lady, she who is the Mediatrix of All Graces. And to cooperate with the graces that Our Lady sends we must be fortified in prayer, which is one of the reasons that we must keep most assiduously the first Novena in the history of the Church, the Novena to God the Holy Ghost. Our Lady was separated from her Divine Son when He Ascended to Heaven. She was united to Him, however, by means of her reception of His Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity in Holy Communion. She was united to the Apostles and the others who prayed in the same Upper Room where He had instituted the Holy Priesthood and the Holy Eucharist at the Last Supper on Maundy Thursday. She is united to us. She is our Blessed Mother. We need to ask her for all the graces that we need to save and to sanctify our souls as we eschew worldliness, which is the theme of today's substantially revised article, and as we refuse to participate in the fraud of a false religion, conciliarism, that is replete with daily outrages given to her Divine Son, starting with the outrage that is the Protestant and Judeo-Masonic Novus Ordo liturgical service, and as we make much reparation for our sins and those of the whole world as the consecrated slaves of her Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary.

My next original article is nearing completion. There is yet a bit of transcription for me to complete and some more commentary to be written before itcan be posted, which I hope will be tomorrow, the Feast of Saint Peter Celestine and the Commemortion of Saint Prudentiana within the Octave of the Ascension of Our Lord.

A blessed Feast of the Ascension of Our Lord Jesus Christ to you all on Thursday, May 18, 2023.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

The Holy Apostles, pray for us.

It was while preparing An Open Invitation to Josef Seifert and Others of Good Will to Remove Their Blinders, which I noted on this home page was long as I know that there is at least one person who is reading these articles and is thirsting for documentation before coming to the conclusion I reached seventeen years ago now concerning the state of the Church Militant in this time of apostasy and betrayal, that I learned that the conciliar “bishop” of Tyler. Texas, Joseph Strickland, has announced that he rejects “Pope Francis’s” “program” concerning the Sacred Deposit of the Faith.

Although I am writing a new commentary on this rejection that will include material not previously cited in any of my previous articles and which is in print in the English language only because of a translation from the Latin done by Father Kenneth Baker, S.J., I am hereby presenting a revised version of an article published two months ago so that “Bishop” Strickland may come to understand that, consistent with the entire patrimony of Holy Mother Church, Pope Saint Pius X explained that “no one who is holy dissents from the pope.”

The faulty ecclesiology possessed by so many within the conciliar structures is staggering, and this it is this false ecclesiology that will be the subject of my next original commentary in a day or two.

An appeal is made yet again for non-tax-deductible financial gifts. Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Ubaldus, pray for us.

Saint John Nepomucene, pray for us.

Saint Brendan the Navigator, pray for us.

Although it has been my intention for the past month to write a commentary about the madness taking place within the mad, mad, mad, mad world of Modernity, one thing after another has kept my attention focused on the counterfeit church of conciliarism.

This commentary is something of an “open invitation” to Professor Josef Seifert, who recently called upon the conciliar “cardinals” to rise up and “do something” about a “destroyer of the faith,” Jorge Mario Bergoglio, and other Catholics of good will within the structures of the counterfeit church of conciliarism to remove their blinders so that they can see the fact that each of the conciliar “popes” have been destroyers of Catholic Faith, Worship, and Morals. 

Moreover, while endless arguments take place within the ranks of the “resist while recognize” movement about whether a “heretical pope” can be removed, this sophistry overlooks the fact that a heretical pope is an ontological impossibility and that, in our current situation, the men who have claimed to be popes following the death of Pope Pius XII on October 9, 1958, never held the papacy in the first place. It is kind of hard to defect and/or to deposed from an office that these heretics have never held.

Also, Pope Saint Pius X put the matter this way: "Whoever is Holy Does Not Dissent from the Pope", which has the following practical application in this current instance: Either Josef Seifert (and those are criticizing a man they address as “Pope Francis”) is not holy, or “Pope Francis” is no pope at all.

Oh, did I mention the fact that this is a long commentary?

Well, it is, and I do hope that someone sends this to Professor Seifert for his consideration.

Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us.

Saint Robert Bellarmine, pray for us.

Another new entry has been added to the many great myths (“defender of Catholic orthodoxy,” “restorer of tradition”) that have been concocted by devotees of the late Joseph Alois Ratzinger/Benedict XVI has been added: Joseph Ratzinger, Catholic Mariologist.

This commentary seeks to explode this new myth, which is spreading because of an alleged vision that a religious sister in Colombia had of the late New Theologian.

Pray daily for the restoration of a true pope on the Throne of Saint Peter!

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Antoninus, O.P., pray for us.

Although relatively late in the day on the Feast of the Apparition of Saint Michael the Archangel, I am hereby republishing a brief reflection. 

My next original article is in the process of development, partly because I have had a bit of learning curve on a new notebook computer whose keyboard is larger than the one I had been using for the past five years. Although it may seem like a simple problem, I have had to adjust to the positioning of my arthritic fingers and think that I have adapted to the new piece of technology. However, I am working away as fast I can. 

Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us and keep us.

On this first Sunday in the month of May, the month of Our Lady, which the Fourth Sunday after Easter and the Commemoration of Saint Stanislaus, I am republishing a reflection on Total Consecration to the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary that was first published in the printed pages of Christ or Chaos twenty-two years ago this month.

Although there is absolutely nothing profound contained in this reflection, I do hope that it helps to serve as a modest introduction to the topic of total consecration to Our Lady for those who are unfamiliar with the benefits that accrue to those who enslave themselves to her Divine Son through her own Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary.

A new commentary should be posted by tomorrow, the Feast of the Apparition of Saint Michael the Archangel, in addition to a republished reflection on the feast day itself. Another original commentary will follow a few days thereafter. I have been fighting off some kind of upper respiratory affliction in the past week, a penitential nuisance that has slowed down my work a little bit. I am sorry.

Also, there is a need for non-tax-deductible financial gifts at this time. Thank you for your consideration of this request.

Our Lady of the Rosary, 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. 

The next original article on this site should be posted by Tuesday, May 9, 2023, the Feast of Saint Gregory Gregorii Nazianzen.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Pope Saint Pius V pray for us.

This is the concluding part of a two-part series. "Father" James Martin's contempt for Holy Writ is featured as the focal piece of this commentary.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Monica, pray for us.

Saint Augustine, pray for us.

This is the first part of a two-part series.

Part one discusses a recent lecture by the Occupied Vatican’s nuncio to the United States of America. Part two will cover some recent remarks given by “Father” James Martin, S.J.

Finally, Mrs. Randy Engel has published part one of a study about the infamous conciliar “archbishop” of San Francisco, California (1977 to 1995), the late John Raphael Quinn, that discusses his sodomite background: The Life and Times of Abp. John R. Quinn & Friends – Part I.)

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Athanasius, pray for  us.
