Novena for Sodomiticalist Priest, James Martin: DAY TWO – FEAST OF ST. JEROME

Day two in this, our Novena for sodomiticalist Jesuit priest, James Martin is the feast of St. Jerome.  For those of you who now use the Douay-Rheims English translation of the Bible, understand that it is a translation into modern English of St. Jerome’s definitive translation into Latin of the original texts that he completed in ARSH 405. St. Jerome was known for being grumpy.  I often call him St. Grumpycat. Also in St. Jerome’s favor: Luther HATED him.

Remember folks, we are pleading for a literal miracle here.  James Martin needs to repent and revert to the Catholic faith, the One True Faith gifted by Our Lord to humanity, whole and entire, which means he needs to utterly, totally and completely reject ALL aberrosexual acts AND orientation as gravely disordered, objectively sinful, and in terms of sodomy, recognize that it is one of the four sins that cries out to heaven for God’s vengeance.  He must further completely repent of all the scandal and damage he has caused – precious human souls that God loves infinitely, the he, James Martin, has bluntly encouraged to utterly reject God by continuing to engage in and even publicly wallow in their sodomitical sins.  Further he must repent of the sacrilege of comparing in any way the sacrament of marriage to sodomy.

Also remember that as a Diabolical Narcissist, James Martin has set up a psychological paradigm by which he completely defines himself by his “otherness”, “eliteness”, and thus by his incapacity to love in the true sense of the word.  He thus uses perverse sex acts as a defining characteristic of his false self-definition. Friends, his self-inflicted wounds are DEEP. This is why we pray. This stuff can only be handled by supernatural intervention.  Thanks be to God, we have easy access to supernatural resources.

Our Lady of Victory Novena for Reversion and Salvation of Sodomiticalist Priest, James Martin, S.J. DAY ONE: Feast of St. Michael the Archangel

James Martin, S.J. clearly in the grips of satan, and in desperate need of our prayers.

Today we begin the Novena for the aggressive sodomy-pushing Jesuit priest James Martin. In this Novena leading up to the Feast of Our Lady of Victory on October 7th, the day that the Holy League won a decisive victory over the Ottoman Fleet at Lepanto in ARSH 1571, we especially implore for the repentance and reversion of James Martin, S.J., and that he die in a state of grace and someday achieve the Beatific Vision.  Understand that this means that James Martin will have to completely and totally reject sodomy and all sexual perversions and confess what The Church teaches, whole and entire, that the only sexual act that is ever proper is between a man and his wife, in the physically normal and appropriate way, completely open to the transmission of life. James Martin must further repent of all of the scandal he has caused and is causing to his countless victims, literally driving souls into hell by aggressively encouraging them to engage in sodomitical acts, and likening sodomy to marriage – a grave blasphemy. 

This is a tall order folks, but all things are possible through Christ, and with the intercession of His Mother. It is also encouraging to start this Novena on the feast of none other than St. Michael the Archangel, who does daily battle with satan and the demons, prowling throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls.

DAY ONE: FEAST OF ST. MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL

Sign of the Cross.

Lord, have mercy on us,

Blessed Virgin and Infant Jesus with St. George and St. Michael the Archangel, Dosso Dossi, early 16th Century

Quick Periscope Check

I’m on pilgrimage, consulting with very wise, experienced and influential people.  The opportunity arose, and I jumped on it. I will be back to the Van Down by the Other River Saturday.  SuperNerd and I will try to do a Podcast then, if schedules align.

A few quick notes. In terms of the Filial Correction, you all know what I’m going to say.  It’s great that people are DOING SOMETHING.  Wonderful.  You know that virility and potency are big themes around here, so kudos for that.  Also, kudos for calling out Bergoglio’s Modernism and Lutheranism.  I was really impressed with the strength of the language.

BUT… I can’t endorse the document because it is based on the false premise that Bergoglio is the Pope, which he is not.  No matter what you do, if your base premise is false, you WILL NEVER resolve the problem.  You will keep hitting dead ends that are catastrophic.  This knot will never be undone so long as no one is actually trying to undo it.  Think about Our Lady under her title of Undoer of Knots.  Do you think it makes any sense to hand Our Lady a huge knot, and then ask her to only undo it 20%?  No, Our Lady undoes knots COMPLETELY, and it is a lack of faith to not ask her to undo a knot COMPLETELY.  The fruit of the Fifth Glorious Mystery of the Rosary, the Crowning of Our Lady as Queen of Heaven, is trust in Mary’s intercession.  In order for this knot to be fully undone, the base premise MUST be true, and the following things MUST occur:

Bergoglio must be publicly acknowledged to be an Antipope, and be removed. The Bergoglian Antipapacy must be nullified. Bergoglio must repent, revert to Catholicism, die in a state of grace and someday achieve the Beatific Vision. Pope Benedict XVI Ratzinger must be acknowledged as the only living pope, and due to the circumstances, no conclave should be called until Ratzinger is dead. Pope Benedict XVI must also repent of what he has done, die in a state of grace, and someday achieve the Beatific Vision.

THAT is the knot that must be undone.  Anything less is still a huge, crippling knot.

Second: regarding the rumor that Bergoglio wants to abolish the College of Cardinals and appoint his own successor, I heard this very early in the Bergoglian Antipapacy from a well-connected Italian cleric in the late summer of ARSH 2013.  I was scoffed at by people in the Rome Anglo-Sodomite-Intellectual circle, but now it seems that the initial indications were credible.  I suspect people like Tucho Fernandez, riding high in the early days of the Antipapacy got a little too chatty, and was overheard bragging about the long-term plans of the Bergoglian antipapacy.  I also have the sinking feeling that Bergoglio wants to name Tucho “Heal Me With Your Mouth: The Art of Kissing” Fernandez, his closest collaborator and his ghostwriter, as his “successor”. Sit in stillness with that.

Third: as I have been screeching for years now, Bergoglio and his ilk literally hate God, His Holy Church, and beyond that, western civilization, that is to say CHRISTIAN CIVILIZATION, and they actively want to see it destroyed.  These vile wretches would walk through something like the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy, the single greatest collection of art in the world, a pure product of Christian culture, and they would be enraged by it, and desire to see it all eventually destroyed.  Bergoglio and his ilk look at something like the destruction of Venezuela and derive pleasure and satisfaction from that.  They genuinely want to destroy all white, Eurocentric, CHRISTIAN civilization, with the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church at the top of the list for destruction.

The proof?  This quote from Antipope Bergoglio:

“I am worried still more by the sad awareness that our Catholic communities in Europe are not exempt from these reactions of defensiveness and rejection, justified by an unspecified ‘moral duty’ to conserve one’s original cultural and religious identity.”

Folks, he is calling the desire to NOT have the Catholic faith exterminated by islam and/or secularism IMMORAL.

If you do not desire the death of Christian Culture, you are a bad person. Not only is there no moral duty to preserve the Faith, much less preach the Gospel to all nations, but to do so is an immoral act in and of itself – a form of bigotry.

St. Athanasius, pray for us.

Our Lady, Undoer of Knots, pray for us.

Christ, have mercy on us.

Barnhardt Podcast #027: Father James Martin, Ethh Jay: Uniter of Trads

[Direct link to the MP3 file]

In this episode we discuss the error of Donatism and how the scandal caused by many who wear Roman Collars understandably is causing a resurgence of this once mostly-dead heresy. We also continue our review of the ORIGINAL schema document on Marriage and the Family which was thrown overboard by the liberals at Vatican 2, and we briefly touch on the topic of canonizations in the Vatican 2 era.

All Decent People Should Be Afraid of Sodomites. Here’s Why.

EXPLICIT CONTENT WARNING. 

We are a war with sodomites, whether we like it or not.  We are in a war with execrable faggots like James Martin, Ethh Jay, and really all unrepentant sodomites.  Given that sexual perversion is a derivative of Diabolical Narcissism, sodomites, exactly like the demons they emulate, prowl throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls.  They want to drag as many people as possible down into hell with them, and it all begins with the hell-on-earth that they wallow in.

One of their tactics, which I think many naive people fall for, is the notion that sodomitical acts are really not much different from normal, human, heterosexual sex.  I think a lot of people assume that the vagina and the rectal vault are similar structures.  I also think that lots of people have fallen for the lie consciously put forth by the sodomite media machine that most faggots don’t engage in anal sodomy, but rather only engage in oral sodomy and mutual masturbation.  This is a lie.  the VAST majority of faggots engage not just in penile-anal sodomy, but also in oral-anal sodomy and just generally shoving things up the rectal vault, including hands, objects such as light bulbs, and even live animals.

The link below is an essay by Joseph Sciambra, a man who engaged in sodomy for years, and then, by the power of Jesus Christ, renounced his sin and now exposes the truth about sodomy and the sodomite culture.  Joseph Sciambra is an invaluable resource and warrior, and should be prayed for early and often.

If you think that the world of sodomite sex is just a bunch of witty, well-dressed guys kissing with their mouths open and giving each other bl**j**s, and as long as we don’t have to see it, it’s no harm-no foul, then you need to read Sciambra’s devastating expose of what really goes on.

You might be tempted to stop reading when Sciambra describes his rectum prolapsing (yes, his rectum turned inside-out and fell out of his anus).

You might be tempted to stop reading when Sciambra describes how he was constantly battling shigella, an infection of the mouth caused by ingesting feces – which, thanks to Antipope Bergoglio, we all know the term for – coprophagia.

You might be tempted to stop when Sciambra describes one of his sodomite friends who would wistfully pine for the day that he could take a man’s arm inserted up his rectum and into his intestinal tract… past the elbow.

You might be tempted to stop reading when you reach Sciambra’s description of the deepest back room of the bathhouse, where there was an altar, surrounded by men kneeling on the floor with their faces on the semen-and-feces-soaked floor, holding open their inter-gluteal cleft and just… waiting.

Read it all the way through, and then feel the terror – the completely rational, healthy terror – that these people walk among us, and that we invite them into our schools and homes, most commonly through the Tabernacle of Satan, the teevee.

When people fall for the sodomite’s ruse of calling people “homophobic”, and then insisting that they “aren’t scared” of sodomites, that is a victory for the sodomites.  A phobia is an IRRATIONAL fear of something.  After reading Sciambra’s piece, you should realize that one of the reasons the sodomites have essentially destroyed western civilization in only a few decades is because the normal people were tricked into purging themselves of the completely healthy, RATIONAL, sane revulsion and fear of these incredibly dangerous people all in the name of the false virtue of “tolerance”.  Up until just recently, it was precisely the good, healthy fear of sex perverts that was the first line of societal defense.  People knew that people who were capable of committing sodomitical acts were extremely dangerous, to be driven out, and defended against.

Am I scared of sodomites?

You’re damn right I am.  They are some of the most evil and dangerous people alive.  It would be completely irrational to NOT fear a person who is so incredibly warped and depraved. “Phobia” has nothing to do with it, and the term “homophobia” should never be permitted.

If you aren’t scared of sex perverts, you should be.  They are like rabid dogs.  They are terrifying and extremely dangerous. To treat a sodomite casually is worse than walking up and petting a rabid dog. Rabies only kills the body.  The sodomites want your souls.

Courage isn’t the absence of fear.  Courage is the ability to act and do the right, including fight a war, in spite of fear.

Starting Ember Wednesday In September Off Right: Sanctify a Fast Edition

Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

PATER NOSTER, qui es in caelis, sanctificetur nomen tuum. Adveniat regnum tuum. Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie, et dimitte nobis debita nostra sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris. Et ne nos inducas in tentationem, sed libera nos a malo. Amen.

The Penitent, William Adolphe Bouguereau, ARSH 1876

Today, Wednesday, as well as this Friday and Saturday this week are the quarterly Ember Days, this set being tied to the end of summer and the beginning of autumn. These are days of fasting, abstinence and prayer.  Please remember the Matthew 17:20 Initiative, which is full fasting on Tuesdays and Fridays for a full resolution of the Bergoglio situation.  The following excerpt from Pope St. Leo the Great (Pope from ARSH 440-461) on the Ember Day Fasts rings out through the centuries.

I. The Fasts, which the ancient prophets proclaimed, are still necessary

Of what avail, dearly-beloved, are religious fasts in winning the mercy of God, and in renewing the fortunes of human frailty, we know from the statements of the holy Prophets, who proclaim that justice of God, Whose vengeance the people of Israel had again and again incurred through their iniquities, cannot be appeased save by fasting. Thus it is that the Prophet Joel warns them, saying, “Thus says the Lord your God, turn to Me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning, and rend your hearts and not your garments, and turn to the Lord your God, for He is merciful and patient, and of great kindness, and very merciful, and again, sanctify a fast, proclaim a healing, assemble the people, sanctify the Church.”  And this exhortation must in our days also be obeyed, because these healing remedies must of necessity be proclaimed by us too, in order that in the observance of the ancient sanctification Christian devotion may gain what Jewish transgression lost.

-Pope St. Leo the Great
(died ARSH 461)

Notification For Benefactors: One of the Four Priests Will Stop Commemorating the Pope BY NAME As Of Today

This just in from one of the four Barnhardt Benefactor Mass priests:

Ann,

I will not be naming the Pope at the Te Igitur today.
May the spiritual fruits of the Mass be applied generously by our Lord to you and your benefactors.
I think this might be something that other priests who are out there reading and are feeling the pangs of conscience with regards to calling “Franciscum” Pope might consider.  Leave out the name.
Here is the text of the Te igitur, which happens before the consecration, just after the Sanctus (Holy, holy, holy…).  Remember the saying “Say the black, do the red!” Black is text of the Mass in the missal, red are the actions that the priest does printed in the missal – printed in red.  Get it?  RUBRICS.  Like ruby. Ruby like red. Say the black, do the red….
Te igitur, clementissime Pater, per Iesum Christum Filium tuum Dominum nostrum, supplices rogamus, ac petimus
(We, therefore, humbly pray and beseech Thee, most merciful Father, through Jesus Christ Thy Son, our Lord)
Then he kisses the altar, joins his hands before his breast and continues:
uti accepta habeas, et benedicas
(that Thou wouldst accept and bless)
Next he makes the sign of the cross three times over the host and the chalice, while saying:
hæc dona, hæc munera, hæc sancta sacrificia illibata
(these gifts, these presents, these holy unspotted sacrifices)
He then opens his arms keeping his hands before his breast, neither higher nor wider than his shoulders, with fingers joined and the palms facing each other, and he continues:
in primis, quæ tibi offerimus pro Ecclesia tua sancta catholica: quam pacificare, custodire, adunare, et regere digneris toto orbe terrarum: una cum famulo tuo Papa nostro N. et Antistite nostro N. et omnibus orthodoxis atque catholicæ et apostolicæ fidei cultoribus.
(which, in the first place, we offer Thee for Thy holy Catholic Church, which Thou mayst vouchsafe to pacify, guard, unite and govern throughout the world: together with Thy Servant N., our Pope, N. our Bishop, as also all orthodox believers and promoters of the Catholic and Apostolic faith.)
Those Ns are where the priest says the first name of the Pope, and then the local Bishop.  Given the situation in the Church today, what Father is now going to do is simply not say the name of the pope at the first N, so that the he is simply praying for “the Pope”, but still saying the name of the local bishop, because there is absolutely no doubt who the local bishop is.
I hope this helps, especially any other priests out there reading.  It is an elegant solution, because it cannot be said that Father is even mistaken.  He is praying for The Pope.  There is no mistake there.  And please remember in prayer this priest, and the other three Benefactor Mass priests, and the weekly Requiem Mass priest, and all seminarians, priests, bishops and Pope Benedict.  And remember the Matthew 17:20 intention (full fast Tuesdays and Fridays!), that Antipope Bergoglio be publicly denounced and deposed and that his antipapacy be publicly nullified, and that Jorge Bergoglio repent, revert to Catholicism, make a good confession, eventually die in the state of grace, and someday achieve the Beatific Vision.  Anything less is uncharitable toward all of humanity, and uncharitable towards Bergoglio himself.

72%-16%. AWK-waaaaard!

So the St. Louis Catholic blog poll that I mentioned last week asking, “Who is the Pope?” closed the polls today and even I am taken aback at the results.

Jorge Bergoglio did manage to beat “pope Michael on his porch in Kansas, elected unanimously by a conclave consisting of himself, his mother and his girlfriend”. But, props to Mike, as he did manage to represent with five votes.

Jorge also managed to beat, but not by much, a big, fat bowl of nothin’, that is, the sedevacantist position.  So, he has that going for him, which is nice. Gunga galunga.

But coming in with a whopping 72% was Pope Benedict XVI Ratzinger, gloriously reigning, and the worst pope ever for what he has done.

So it was Pope Benedict 72%, the psychopathic dimwit who hates God and is very possibly the False Prophet Forerunner of the Antichrist at 16%, a sucking void with 9%, and pope Mike of the Society of St. Pius the Five-Eighths with 0.7%.

When I linked to the poll, the standings were Pope Benedict XVI Ratzinger 51%, Bergoglio 28%, sedevacante 19% and Mike 0%.  Look, if you want to claim that my linking to the poll drove the subsequent action, that’s fine.  I’ll join you.  Let’s handicap it and just look at the early results before I linked, if you want.  No problem.  It is still a HUGE statistical majority at 51%-28%.

Again, and this can never be said enough: THE TRUTH IS NOT A DEMOCRACY.

But, I do think that people need to see and understand that there is massive suppression of expression of belief that Bergoglio is an antipope and always has been, and that Pope Benedict, even though he is the worst Pope in history for what he has done, is still the one and only living Pope.  That suppression is both active, in the form of scrubbing and censoring of comments on blogs, and also of passive suppression by attacking and mindlessly raging and calumniating people as stupid, heretical, crazy, schismatic or “sedevacantist” (eyeroll), such that they cower in fear of saying anything.

But look at the results above, small though the sample may be.  There are clearly, undeniably, a LOT of people out there who are on side.

So, just to review:

You aren’t stupid.
You aren’t a heretic (at least not for this point!)
You aren’t crazy.
You aren’t a schismatic.
You aren’t a sedevacantist.

And you clearly aren’t alone. Not that that is of supreme importance – it isn’t.  Just ask St. Athanasius.

Old and Busted: “HATER!” New Hotness Sharkjump: “SEDEVACANTIST!”

When you preface a story by saying, “This is so spectacularly stupid, there is no way I could have ever made this up….”, you know the story is going to be mildly amusing at the absolute minimum.  Such is this.

So I receive an email from a guy that said, at tremendous length, that I am a Sedevacantist. I don’t reply to many emails, but I did briefly reply to this one.  I replied, of course, that since Pope Benedict XVI Ratzinger is very much alive, and still the one and only living Pope due to his invalid attempt to partially resign only the “active munus” of the papacy, while continuing on as the “contemplative memeber” of the new “synodal, collegial” papacy, to accuse me of sedevacantism is flatly mendacious. The entire point is that the See was never vacant after Ratzinger’s substantially erroneous maneuver per Canon 188, and thus the conclave of March ARSH 2013 was invalid, and Bergoglio is an Antipope.

Now here comes the crazy, folks.  The guy replied that I am, in fact, a sedevacantist because, and I promise I’m not making this up:

Pope Benedict XVI will die at some point in the future (true), and when he does, at that time the See will be vacant (true), and thus I will be a Sedevacantist at that time (true, because the Pope will be, er, DEAD, and thus the See will be vacant, which I am told is kinda the key concept conveyed by the term sedevacante), in the future (yes…), until a conclave is called and another Pope elected (yeppers), and thus I am a sedevacantist… wait for it… NOW.

Again, NOT. MAKING. THIS. UP.

Just sit in stillness and think about that for a minute until the full craziness of it sinks in.

Brings new meaning to your High School graduating class’ motto: THE FUTURE IS NOW!, doesn’t it?

Uh, so… yeah.  This is the level and quality of argument on the other side.  One can and should read into this, and use it as not a piece of primary evidence, but certainly as a supporting piece of evidence.

Now, mind you, most people on the “Francers is totes the Pope! And besides, the Papacy doesn’t really matter, never really did, and it’s just a label anyway…” side in Traddyland deftly deploy the classic rhetorical defense of, “SHUT UP, FREAK!”, and refuse to engage the dataset.  Hence all of those comment deletions you folks keep emailing me about. That in and of itself is so, so telling.  Quashing argument in situations such as: “9/11 was done by shape-shifting time-traveling lizard-Joooz with holograms and tractor beams!”, is completely appropriate. The appropriate response to delusional, schizophrenic crap like that is dismissal and quashing, because the premise is completely, totally irrational (and also a synthesis of every Star Trek: The Next Generation plot device known to man.)

We all know darn well that what is now sometimes referred to as “The Barnhardt Thesis” with regards to the Bergoglian antipapacy is completely logical and backed up by objective evidence, namely the public words and deeds of Ratzinger himself, and Canon Law. Nevermind the enormous circumstantial and subjective evidence set, which just keeps growing every day.

I wanted to bring this to your attention just to demonstrate how incredibly weak the counter-arguments, if you can even call them that, are. Now, with this new truly pathetic tack, I think we can say that the other side is jumping the shark.  Also note in the completely bizarre argument the emailer made above, Sedevacantism is being wielded, as I have been warning about, as a purely political football, when in fact, it is an objective binary state.  Either the See is occupied, or the See is vacant. The politicizing of the state of sedevacantism over the past decades is a masterstroke of satan, and it is precisely because so many Trad Catholics are completely terrified of being called “sedevacantist”, no matter how spectacularly stupid and irrational the argument (see above), that so many are cowering in fear.  This fear is a pure function of EFFEMINACY.

So these people are now hurling the term “sedevacantist” the way the little Social Justice Warrior Snowflakes are hurling the word “HATER!”

Alas, that crap doesn’t work on me.  I just take stuff like this and turn it into a teaching moment, and hopefully a source of edification.

On a related note, I saw Frank Walker over at Canon212.com, braving the hurricane on the East Coast of Florida, linked yesterday to a little poll being done on a small Trad Catholic blog called SaintLouisCatholic.   It is a poll asking, “Which best describes your opinion about the current Pope?”

The choices are:
A.) Duh. Francis is Pope.
B.) Um, Benedict is Pope.
C.) Some other person is Pope.
D.) No one is Pope.

Folks, it is nearly 2:1 for Benedict as I write this. It is 28% Bergoglio, 51% Ratzinger, and 19% sedevacante.  My linking to it will skew it, but I wanted to draw this to your attention not because truth is a democracy, but just to reiterate that despite all of the censoring going on on OnePeterFive, RemnantNewspaper and elsewhere, the truth is that there are A LOT of people who are figuring out or have figured out that Bergoglio is an Antipope and that Pope Benedict XVI is still the one and only living pope.

YOU AREN’T ALONE.
YOU AREN’T CRAZY.
YOU AREN’T A BAD PERSON, A BAD CATHOLIC, A HERETIC, OR A SCHISMATIC.

Don’t fall for gaslighting.

Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for us.

Christ, have mercy on us.
