Although this commentary, which is very long, deals peripherally with the Mueller Report, whose redacted version will be released on Maundy Thursday (!) to serve as a gigantic distraction from the most solemn days of the whole—the Sacred Paschal Triduum of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ’s Passion, Death and Resurrection, its principal focus is on how the modern world, aided and abetted by the conciliar revolutionaries, of course, continues to crown Our Lord anew with thorns mystically. Perhaps more to the point, though, is the fact that we continue to do so in our own daily lives by choosing Barabbas over Christ the King, making us the greatest and most dangerous coup-plotters of them all.

Brief note is made in this commentary to the fire that destroyed part of Notre Dame de Paris Cathedral yesterday, Monday in Holy Week, April 15, 2019. A commentary on this tragedy, which pales into insignificance when compared to the tragedy of the abomination of desolation that has taken place within the cathedral’s walls for the past five decades, will be published sometime in early May after two book projects are completed and made available for sale.

In the meantime, however, a brief summary of the horror that is the Protestant and Judo-Masonic Novus Ordo liturgical service can be found at: Making Revolutions Irreversible.

Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us.

This is Palm Sunday. We have now entered into the most solemn week of the year as we withdraw more and more from the world and its false allurements to unite ourselves as never before with the events of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ’s Passion and Death prior to experiencing the glory of His Resurrection following the Mass on Holy Saturday, April 20, 2019, and on Easter Sunday, April 21, 2019, thus beginning a marvelous celebration of the Octave of Easter and the Easter season.

We need Our Lady’s help to keep and to intensify our Lenten penances this week. May our reliance upon the Most Sorrowful Mysteries of her Holy Rosary aid us in understanding what our sins did to her Divine Son and to her and how grateful we must be for being the unmerited beneficiaries of the Mercy won for us on the wood of the Holy Cross and for being given from that Cross so great and wonderful and perfect a mother as she, Our Blessed Mother, is to us by Our Divine Redeemer Himself.

"From Eden to Palm Sunday" is a substantial revision of a reflection that I wrote for the printed pages of Christ or Chaos in 1997. Given the vastness of the subject, this reflection is pitifully, woefully inadequate. The revised article is really a condensed version of what was gone into in greater detail in the Living in the Shadow of the Cross lecture program. About half of the lecture program dealt with material condensed in the current article. Obviously, Holy Week is not a time to watch this lecture program! However, it is there for those who are interested at some point during the months that follow.

To greet Christ the King this Palm Sunday and every day of our lives, we must not let anything get in the way of letting Him treat us according to the tender mercies of His Most Sacred Heart, remembering that nothing anyone does to us, says about us or causes us to suffer is the equal of what one of our least Venial Sins caused Him to suffer in His Sacred Humanity during His fearful Passion and Death on the wood of the Holy Cross and that caused those Swords of Sorrow to be pierced through and through the Immaculate Heart of His Most Blessed Mother.

Our fervor during this week of weeks must be genuine, and we must beg Our Lady, especially by meditating upon the Sorrowful Mysteries of her Most Holy Rosary, to help us persist in this fervor moment by moment, day by day, week in and week out, month after month, year after year until the time when we meet Christ the King, Our Crucified and Risen Saviour, at the moment of our Particular Judgment.

Although I had hoped to have an original article published by Saturday  morning, I am still working on its completion. Barring any further unforeseen developments, it should be posted on Monday in Holy Week, April 15, 2019. 

A blessed Palm Sunday to you all.

Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us.

Saint Justin Martyr (whose feast is suppressed this year), pray for us.

The man who promised to retreat into obscurity is in the news yet again.

Yes, Joseph Alois Ratzinger/Antipope Emeritus Benedict XVI has released another missive that is filled with so many contradictions that time has permitted only a few aspects of the apostate's letter about the crisis of clerical abuse within his false religious sect. However, the aspects covered document the fact that the former presiding officer of the counterfeit church of conciliarism is at a less to understand that the loss of God in the "public square" is the direct, inevitable and inexorable consequence of the Protestant Revolution's overthrow of the Social Reign of Christ the King. It is incongruous for Ratzinger/Benedict to bemoan the "loss of God in the public square" without acknowledging what he is constitutionally incapable of admitting, namely, that the religiously indifferentist state leads to the triumph of practical atheism as the lowest common denominator. 

While I will leave it to others to comment about the implications of Ratzinger's missive on his frosty relationship with Jorge Mario Bergoglio, suffice it to say that the nonagenarian German "new theologian" considers himself the "brains" of the conciliar enterprise, a troublling belief if one stops to realize that hs mind is shaped by a lifelong warfare against the immutability of dogmatic truth, which is nothing other than warfare upon the very nature of God, His Divine Revelation and the very Divine Constitution of Holy Mother Church.

Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us,

Unfathomable. Just unfathomable

Only a handful of genuine mystics and truly gifted spiritual masters have been able to comprehend the unfathomable mysteries of grief that overwhelmed the fairest creature of our race, Our Lady, as those Seven Swords of Sorrow were plunged through and through her Immaculate Heart. We sin so casually, so thoughtlessly, so repeatedly, rarely giving a moment’s worth of a meditation to how our least Venial Sins caused Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ to suffer unspeakable horrors during His Passion and Death, horrors that penetrated the Immaculate Heart of His Most Blessed Mother as she, conceived without any stain of Original or Actual Sin, suffered in a perfect communion of Hearts with Him. It cannot be that way with us from this day forward.

We are on the cusp of Holy Week, ending now the first week in Passiontide, Passion Week. We must enter deep into the mysteries of our salvation, which was wrought for us by the perfect obedience of the Word made Flesh in Our Lady’s Virginal and Immaculate Womb to the Will of His Co-Equal and Co-Eternal Father. We must quit our sins once and for all, recognizing how they caused the God-Man and His Most Blessed Mother to suffer, how they wound our own souls, which have been purchased by the shedding of every single drop of the Divine Redeemer’s Most Precious Blood, and how they have brought great sorrow into the Heart out of which was formed Our Redeemer’s Most Sacred Heart.

No more sin.

No more joking about sin.

No more dismissiveness about the gravity of sin.

We must repent and amend our lives as the consecrated slaves of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary. Our Lady brought forth her Divine Son painlessly and miraculously. She brought us forth in great pain as the adopted children of the Living God as she stood so valiantly by the foot of the Cross on Good Friday. She stands by the foot of her Divine Son’s Most Holy Cross in every true offering of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass by a true bishop or a true priest. We must stand by her each day at Holy Mass as we make reparation for our sins and those of the whole world with every beat of our hearts, making sure as well to pray as many Rosaries each day as our states-in-life permit.

An original commentary, one dealing with several aspects of Antipope Joseph Alois Ratzinger/Benedict XVI's new missive about his "thoughts" on the crisis of clerical abuse within his false religious sect will be published shortly,

A blessed Feast of the Seven Dolors of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Passiontide to you all.

Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us.

Although admittedly late in the day, this is still Passion Sunday here in the United States of America.

This commentary is something of a follow-up to Antipapal Appointees Always Advance Antichrist’s Anti-Catholic Agenda as it incorporates a detailed news story about the spread of viral infections that are drug resistant by way of explaining that the “omniscient” high priests and priestesses of Modernity—aided and abetted as they are by the false high priests of the counterfeit church of conciliarism—are as blind about and as hateful of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ as were the Jews who accused Him in today’s Gospel passage of being a Samaritan who had a devil within Him.  The blindness persists as men refuse to recognize the Light of the World and to follow Him as He has revealed Himself to us exclusively through His true Church, the Catholic Church.

This commentary also contains links to two white papers detailing the lies that have been told to us by government officials about vaccine “safety” and the supposed lack of a link between vaccines containing aluminum adjuvant and autisms: Vaccine Safety White Paper and Aluminum Adjuvant in Vaccines and Autism.

Almost nothing told us by the government and the medical industry is true. Yet it is that even believing Catholics prefer the darkness of these liars to the light of truth even on the natural level. Face it: we were lied to in the 1950s, and we are being lied to today. A government based on one anti-Incarnational lie after another must produce and sustain liars whose lies become more bolder and more institutionalized over the course of time.

Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us.

This article, which was written in 2011 and revised over the years, contrasts the zeal of Saint Vincent Ferrer for the conversion of Jews and Mohammedans with his antitheses in the counterfeit church of conciliarism, who do not believe that they have a mission from God to seek with urgency the conversion of the souls of any non-Catholics, including adherents of the Talmud and the Koran.

Although I would not have thought it possible six years ago when this article was written originally, Jorge Mario Bergoglio is even more of antithesis of Saint Vincent Ferrer than was Joseph Ratzinger/Benedict XVI before him, not that the German Modernist by the way of the “new theology” was any slouch in this regard. It’s just that the Argentine Apostate has exceeded everything that has gone before him in the past fifty-eight years, and he’s still at his work of destruction.

Today, Friday, April 5, 2019, is the sixth anniversary of the death of Mrs. Melissa Kunkel, the late first wife of Mr. Thomas Kunkel of Sharonville, Ohio, and the mother of twelve loving children to whom she was so very devoted. Please join us in remembering the repose of this devout Catholic woman’s immortal soul. 

Prayers are also requested for the soul of Mrs. Leslie Matatics, who died on Sunday, March 24, 2019, in Scranton, Pennsylvania. A mother of ten children, Mrs. Matatics, the wife of Mr. Gerald Christian, was fifty-five years of age and died after a year-long struggle with cancer. Please pray for her immortal soul and for the needs of Mr. Matatics and his family at this time.

Finally, yesterday, Thursday, April 4, 2019, the Feast of Saint Isidore of Seville and the Commemoration of Thursday in the Fourth Week of Lent, was the second anniversary of the death of my former colleage and friend, Mr. John Vennari. Please remember his immortal soul and for the needs of the Vennari family.

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May their souls and all of the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us now and at the hour of our death.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Vincent Ferrer, O. P., pray for us.

Although I am aware that Jorge Mario Bergoglio has been in Morocco, where he reaffirmed his apostate statement on “human solidarity” that was the subject of Jorge Signs Off on the One World Ecumenical Religion two months ago, my attention in the past week has been focused on writing this new commentary, which deals with the conciliar Vatican’s position on vaccines derived from the cell lines of butchered babies.

This is a detailed article, one that is relatively short by the standards of this website as it runs less than twenty pages. However, there is a lot of important information contained in the text, including links to various articles as well as to a video presentation by Dr. Suzanne Humphries about the fraudulent nature of the claims made by governments and the medical industry about the “success” of vaccines.

You see, the conciliar Vatican assures us that vaccines are important to public health. As I state in this new commentary, vaccines have nothing to do with public health. They have everything to do with money and control as human beings are used as guinea pigs of experimentation.

The Mueller Report?

I’ll get around to that in due course.

For the moment, though, this commentary should keep you busy for a few days.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Philomena, pray for us.

Several matters have interfered with the completion of my next commentary, which is not about the Mueller Report as summarized by United States Attorney General William Barr. That article is being written. However, there is a subject concerning the counterfeit church of conciliarism that I want to cover first. There is just enough work to be done on it to make it unlikely for posting until tomorrow, Monday, April 1, 2019, Monday in the Fourth Week of Lent.

The current posting contains a few reflections for your consideration on the Way of the Cross that might be useful for the reamining three weeks of Lent. These reflections were written many a moon ago and have been revised slightly over the past three decades. 

A blessed Laetare Sunday to you all.

Thank you.

Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us.

The great saint whose feast we celebrate today, Saint John Damascene, fought the iconoclasts in his day. And while many, although far from all, of our Catholic churches are now in the hands of the conciliar iconoclasts, we can festoon our homes with images of Our Lord and Our Lady and Saint Joseph and other saints as we use these images to remind us of we are united to the saints represented in these images by means of the Communion of Saints and that we hope to share Heaven with them for all eternity in the glory of the Beatific Vision. 

Today is, of course, our daughter Lucy’s seventeenth birthday and the elevenanniversary of her First Holy Communion. 

We are very blessed to have our dear daughter, who is being taught by a mother possessed of a pure love of the Holy Catholic Faith and a deep, tender devotion to the Mother of God. I give thanks every day and night for the blessings represented by my family. Deo gratias! Please do pray for Lucy Mary Therese Norma Droleskey on her birthday today. Thank you. 

The next original article is in the works. I hope to have it posted by tomorrow, the Feast of Saint John of Capistrano. 

Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us. 

Saint John Damascene, pray for us.

As always seems to be the case these days, it took longer to complete work on this commentary than I had estimated, and for this I apologize.

Although I do not have television, I read news stories on a selective basis every day. A recent series of stories dealt with supposed “celebrities,” absolutely none of whom I had ever heard in my life as I do not follower contemporary “culture” or “entertainment” in the slightest, having paid exorbitant fees to a man to get their children into prestigious universities on scholarships of one sort or another. While this matter is not the subject of the current commentary, it did prompt me to use my upcoming fiftieth anniversary reunion of my high school graduating class as a springboard write about the true purposes of education as elucidated by the teaching of Holy Mother Church.

This is a relatively short article, running about thirty pages on the Word document on which it was prepared.

My commentary about the findings of Robert Mueller’s “investigation” as summarized by United States Attorney General William Barr will follow by the end of this week.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.
