Defending the blessing of sodomy. If this isn’t a double shot of the “Jewish Revolutionary Spirit” that Jones has spent decades warning against, then I don’t know what is. This guy is absolutely nuts to an indefensible degree. This level of cognitive dissonance risks rupturing the fabric of space-time.
STEER. WELL. CLEAR.
No matter what Tucho has written privately, his position on blessings in Fiducia Supplicans is theologically sound. Blessings do not condone the sins of those in irregular situations. It is the document we have to judge in this instance, not the man. As to Bergoglio, I prefer…
Why would Antipope Bergoglio bring to Rome and install a young new personal secretary that was only ordained in ARSH 2018, had never been out of Argentina, presumably speaks only Spanish, at exactly the same time that Tucho Fernandez was announced as the new head of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (Antichurch) and brought to Rome? It’s almost as if Fernandez and Pellizzòn are a package, a unit… a COUPLE, if you will. I wonder if these two “very close friends” from Buenos Aires have asked Antipope Bergoglio for a “spontaneous blessing” of their “relationship” and “mutual support”?
By the way, don’t read the excerpts of Fernandez’ book that dropped yesterday if you haven’t yet. It’s p-0-r-n. It’s not merely “racy”. It’s utterly obscene blasphemy. It reads like what an older priest would say to a younger priest or seminarian that he was trying to seduce into sodomy. It’s an advanced grooming script. It’s the sort of stuff a predator priest would say to a young man (or 16 year old girl) he was trying to bed after getting him drunk. It’s best to not have such dreck in your memory.
*Pro tip: if you need help with the purification of memory- from p-0-r-n to nightmares to images from horror films to books written by top ranking prelates in the Antichurch, etc., anything you need to get out of your mind’s eye, Our Lady is who you turn to as an intercessor. One of her “jobs” is to intercede for the purification of memory to those who seek her help. She is the mother of Purity Himself. How could you not ask her to pray for you?
It is often said that no one questioned Pope Benedict’s resignation until Bergoglio manifested as an arch-heresiarch. The implication here is that no one would question or care about what Pope Benedict attempted if an actual Catholic had emerged as putative Pope from the faux-conclave in March of ARSH 2013.
This is not correct, and I covered this in my second video presentation at the 47:20 timestamp:
There were FOUR Canonists jumping up and down declaring that the whole “Pope emeritus” thing was an ontological impossibility, and that only resigning the ministry of the active governance of the Church and not the Office (munus) was invalid in toto.
Those Canonists were:
—Manuel Jesus Arroba, a professor of canon law at the Pontifical Lateran University, who raised the alarm only TWO DAYS after Pope Benedict’s announcement.
—Former rector of the Pontifical Gregorian University, the Jesuit Gianfranco Ghirlanda, published a lengthy article on March 2, ARSH 2013 refuting the possibility of a “Pope emeritus”.
—Valerio Gigliotti, a professor of the history of European law at the University of Torino.
—Fr. Stefano Violi, a professor of law at the theological faculty of Emilia Romagna.

So, it is incorrect to say that no one objected until the dripping evil of Bergoglio was manifested. Canonists were objecting and sounding the alarm even before Pope Benedict’s putative effective date of 28 February at 8:00pm, and certainly before the faux-conclave even began.
How good is the Divine Providence, how much does Christ love His Holy Church, and love us as His individual sheep, that the Wolf is so clearly visible and recognizable? Even with the Faithless Hirelings trying desperately to convince the sheep to jump into the jaws of the Wolf, even though the Wolf is obviously “the voice of a stranger”, the sheep know the voice of the Good Shepherd. “I know mine, and mine know Me.” The Wolf is VISIBLE, VISIBLE, VISIBLE. And even beyond that, the breach that let the Wolf into the pasture in the first place was recognized, visible, and the alert was sounded from literally the very beginning, even before the Wolf entered. But the faithless hirelings – a non-trivial number of whom are in cahoots with the Wolf – refused to mend the fence, or even acknowledge the breach. And they will answer for it.
Jesus Christ, Good Shepherd, have mercy on us, and on Your Holy Church outside of which there is no salvation.
After I posted the explanation of the actual meaning of the lyrics of “God Rest (Make) Ye Merry (Mighty), Gentlemen” last year, a reader emailed to point out the etymology of the word “comfort”, as in “tidings of comfort and joy”…
Com: with
Fort: strength
Here is the medley of God Make Ye Mighty, Gentlemen with We Three Kings.
Tidings of Strength and Joy, Mighty Men, on this Great Feast of the Manifestation of Our Lord: King and God and Sacrifice!
Here at The Barnhardt Blog and Podcast, we’re all about the diversity: the true diversity that comes from simply saying that which is true. It’s universally attractive to morally sane people of good will.
Below is a letter over the transom from a lady who made a bumper sticker for her car that references me. I think the bumper sticker analogy is probably quite theologically flawed. What do you think? I think a much better formulation could be thought up. Although I frequently feel like saying to people, “When possible, make a u-turn…. Please make a u-turn…. MAKE A U-TURN.”
Ann,
As I’m driving and running errands, I find myself at a red light. Then I hear this incessant honking. I’m like,”who is honking?!” A delivery driver for OnTrac rolls down his window and says, “Man! I love your bumper sticker! That girl…that girl right there knows what’s up.” I said thank you and he continues, “she’s tough man but you have to be! God Bless!” Then the light turns green. I thought this was a great example of not judging a book by its cover. He was a black man about 35 with a gold front tooth.
He has good taste in bumper stickers and apparently blogs/podcasts. 🙂
Lady in Arizona
I think this is a better formulation for a bumper sticker:
Heaven is my Destination,
Christ is my Pilot,
Our Lady is the Co-Pilot,
and Ann Barnhardt is my Stewardess!
