Since Pope Benedict’s failed attempted partial abdication of only the “active governance of the Church”, and attempted “expansion” of the Papacy into a “collegial, synodal ministry” was invalid by the law itself, the See was never vacant in ARSH 2013, and thus no Conclave occurred – only a faux-conclave, totally NULL.
Since nothing actually happened, the “universal, peaceful acceptance” argument is totally moot, since you first have to have something to accept.
No conclave was held in ARSH 2013. No one was “elected Pope” in ARSH 2013 since no valid conclave was held. “Universal, peaceful acceptance” by logical definition applies only to legally, canonically valid conclaves.
To think that the collective will of the College of Cardinals could depose a sitting Pope (in this case Pope Benedict XVI) and create validity ex nihilo is essentially to DEIFY the College of Cardinals as the creators and arbiters of reality, and furthermore to reduce the Papacy itself to a meaningless figurehead position to be withdrawn at the whim of the mob.
Folks, this is a textbook example of the heresy of CONCILIARISM and the ULTIMATE application and fruition of the Freemasonic agenda to destroy the Papacy – the last monarchy and the ultimate target of Satan, under the codewords of “synodality and demythologization”. Destroy the Office and replace it with a “deified synod”.
Thanks be to God that Canon Law foresees this and protects against it as a unified whole. It’s almost as if the Divine Providence had a hand in both the ARSH 1917 and 1983 Codes! Canon 188 protected by Canon 332.2 and Canon 359, with Christ Himself having bound Himself to it when He said to Peter, “what you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and what you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” Thus, if you want to know what Jesus Christ thinks about all of this, it is actually quite easy. JUST. LOOK. AT. THE. LAW.
“Happy” 10th anniversary of the Great Nullity.
Pray for the repose of the soul of Pope Benedict XVI, for the Petrine See, vacant these 72 days as this is being written, and for the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, outside of which there is no salvation.
I will rejoice at Thy words, as one that hath found great spoil. I have hated and abhorred iniquity; but I have loved Thy law. Seven times a day I have given praise to Thee, for the judgments of Thy justice. Much peace have they that love Thy law, and to them there is no stumbling block.
Psalm 118: 162-165
The universe is not rich enough to buy the vote of an honest man.
Have confidence in the compassion of our Creator. Reflect well on what you are now doing, and keep before you the things you have done. Lift up your eyes to the overflowing compassion of heaven, and while He waits for you, draw near in tears to our merciful Judge. Having before your mind that He is a Just Judge, do not take your sins lightly; and having also in mind that He is compassionate, do not despair. The God-Man gives man confidence before God.
Ignorance is a dangerous and spiritual poison, which all men ought warily to shun.
The proof of love is in the works. Where love exists, it works great things. But when it ceases to act, it ceases to exist.
We ascend to the heights of contemplation by the steps of action.
Whoever wishes to hold the fortress of contemplation must first of all train in the camp of action.
The greatness of contemplation can be given to none but those who love.
If we are, in fact, now occupied in good deeds, we should not attribute the strength with which we are doing them to ourselves. We must not count on ourselves, because even if we know what kind of person we are today, we do not know what we will be tomorrow.
The holy universal Church teaches that it is not possible to worship God truly except in Her and asserts that all who are outside of Her will not be saved.
As people keep trying (with ever-more desperation and flailing) to defend the false premise that Jorge Bergoglio is or ever has been the Pope, which he obviously is not and has never been, one of the arguments that they keep having to make is the argument regarding Papal Infallibility. Now, it is clear to any honest, clear-thinking person that Antipope Bergoglio is so far outside any possibility of the negative supernatural protection of Papal Infallibility that the only way people can reconcile the two is to make the standard of Papal Infallibility universally applicable, which is to say meaningless to the point of non-existence.
The current argument which you can see on a near-daily basis from most “Trad Catholic” sites, bloggers, pundits, is this:
Papal Infallibility only applies to those magisterial statements which are true. Those statements are infallible, and are manifestations of the Petrine Protection. All magisterial statements that are false are not infallible, and do not fall under the Petrine Protection, and thus in no way violate the Dogma of Papal Infallibility.
Now think about this, folks – and here is where the culture-wide inability to think in a logical progression rears its ugly head yet again.
Everything Antipope Bergoglio says that is true is infallible.
Stop. Think about that.
Everything ANYONE says that is true is infallible. The truth IS infallible. It’s a completely circular argument. And thus, by logical extension, anything that is false is not infallible.
This argument, which actually says nothing at all, applies to every man, woman, child and angelic being that ever has and ever will exist. Everything satan has ever said that was true was infallible. Everything Hitler ever said that was true was infallible. Everything Hillary Clinton, Anthony Fauci, and Joe Biden have ever said that was true (and that set is SMALL) is infallible. Thus, what we have here is a TAUTOLOGY, which is a statement that is true by virtue of its logical form, or put another way, saying exactly the same thing twice and passing the repetition off as logical proof.
The set of “truth” is infallible, because infallibility is freedom from error, which the truth, by definition ALWAYS IS. The root of the word “infallible” is the Latin fallere, which means “to deceive”. The truth cannot be both true and false.
And so, once again, we see the wrong-headed defense of Antipope Bergoglio qua Pope accomplishing EXACTLY what Freemasonry and ultimately satan wants, which is completely destroying the entire notion of the papacy itself.
If Our Lord’s promise to Peter was nothing more than an empty rhetorical trick, a TAUTOLOGY, and the Petrine Protection is actually a UNIVERSALLY APPLICABLE AXIOM, then no real promise was ever made, and the Papacy has been a joke all along – which is EXACTLY what the various SCHISMATICS; Lutherans, Anglicans, all Protestants and the Eastern Orthodox, have all been saying all along. And satan squeeeeeeals with delight.
It is no coincidence and certainly no surprise to anyone on the ground that Trad Inc. partisans are now openly embracing and encouraging schism and singing the praises the Eastern Orthodoxy – precisely because the Eastern Orthodox Schism is a rejection of the Papacy qua Papacy, which is the inevitable logical result of holding the FALSE BASE PREMISE that “Francis” is Pope. They have made their personal hatred of me (and others by association) their idol, which prevents them from seeing, or at least acknowledging the obvious truth: the attempted partial resignation in February of ARSH 2013 led to an invalid conclave, and Bergoglio is an Antipope. These people will join the schismatic East, and some will or already have completely apostatized into luciferian deism or atheism.
The truth is, Papal infallibility is real, it is a supernatural promise and gift,absolutely intrinsic to the Papacy, proceeding necessarily out of Our Lord’s infinite love for His Holy Church, and for us as individuals, and the fact that Antipope Bergoglio so very clearly does NOT enjoy that supernatural protection, is just one more clear, obvious “red flag” sign that somehow his “election” was invalid. With even the most superficial examination of events, it is perfectly clear to any who care to look with open, honest eyes that Pope Benedict XVI’s attempted partial resignation was Canonically invalid twelve ways from Sunday, and that Pope Benedict never validly resigned and remained the one and only Pope all along per Canons 188, 332.2, 131, 359, etc. etc until he died the morning of December 31, ARSH 2022, these seventy days ago as this is being written. Like I said, twelve ways from Sunday.
The fact that Antipope Bergoglio is so flagrantly outside of the domain of the true definition of Papal Infallibility – which is real, as history AND the words of Our Lord in the Gospels attest – is a blinking neon sign of a red flag pointing BACK to the events of February ARSH 2013 and the attempted partial abdication, and thus total invalidity and nullity of the conclave of March ARSH 2013.
If your position always leads to the tearing down of the Papacy, and matches up EXACTLY with the founding objective of Freemasonry to destroy the Papacy, which has been satan’s goal since day one, then dontcha think that MAYBE your base premise – namely the IDENTITY of the Pope – is WRONG?
So, now that Trad, Inc. has pretty much fully embraced the Freemasonic agenda to discredit and destroy the Papacy in their own minds and the minds of the faithful, the next step, which one can see coming like a freight train across the Western Kansas plains, will be to start going after SCRIPTURE ITSELF, declaring certain passages and eventually entire books of the Bible to be wrong, useless, and to be ignored or disregarded. Mark my words. The Luther-esque Bible editing will commence in 3..2..1…
I covered this in my Part 1 video presentation on the Bergoglian Antipapacy at the 01:57:07 timestamp, to which the embed below is cued, if you prefer video.
Pray for the repose of the soul of Pope Benedict XVI, the Papacy, and Holy Mother Church.
Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on us!
I’m infallible
He’s infallible
She’s infallible
We’re infallible
Wouldn’t you like to be infallible, too?
For those of you who have been around since the lighthearted days of mere koran burnings and denunciations of the financial system, you remember that music used to be a fairly significant part of this blog. Well, let’s return briefly to those roots, and a song that many will recognize if only from the many posts I have made on it over the years.
This year, obviously, as we are living through the collapse and suicide of the post-Christian west, and most acknowledge the United States of America to no longer exist, it is bittersweet indeed to look at this performance from ARSH 1982 and realize that the world as THEY knew it had less than forty years left. ARSH 1982 was the highly optimistic early days of Reagan’s “Morning in America”, which became the motto of his ’84 campaign which legit won 49 states. Mondale won his home state, Minnesota, by only a razor-thin 0.18% margin. In historical terms, this was a blink of an eye ago.
This is a very Lenten song, it seems to me. Its lyrics harken to the collect prayers of the Masses of Lent, begging God to hear the prayers of His afflicted and sinful people, to deliver them, and to supply what they are lacking in themselves.
But the HUGE allegory in this performance is MANDOLIN BOY. Don Williams, the bass player, the keyboardist, and even the percussionist are reserved. But then, there, ever-present in the background is MANDOLIN BOY, dressed in solid bright red, the color of the Passion, of martyrdom… and of PENTECOST. There is MANDOLIN BOY bouncing and smiling, rocking out his mandolin solos, reminding us all that God hears the prayers of His people, and that YES, God is “planning a good day for me.” Let’s call that the understatement of the day, shall we?
I hope this helps. #TeamMandolinBoy
Lord, I hope this day is good
I’m feelin’ empty and misunderstood
I should be thankful, Lord, I know I should
But Lord I hope this day is good
Lord, have You forgotten me
I’ve been prayin’ to You faithfully
I’m not sayin’ I’m a righteous man
But Lord I hope You understand
I don’t need fortune and I don’t need fame
Send down the thunder, Lord, send down the rain
But when You’re plannin’ just how it will be
Plan a good day for me
Lord, I hope this day is good
I’m feelin’ empty and misunderstood
I should be thankful, Lord, I know I should
But Lord I hope this day is good
You’ve been the King since the dawn of time
All that I’m askin’ is a little less crime
It might be hard for the devil to do
But it would be easy for You
Lord, I hope this day is good
I’m feelin’ empty and misunderstood
I should be thankful, Lord, I know I should
But Lord I hope this day is good
I want to thank you for banning the Traditional Latin Mass at the Franciscan University of Steubenville and for making the order effective immediately. I cannot think of a greater danger to mankind or our Church than this terrible, terrible Mass.
Your pastoral concern for all of your flock, but especially our college students is duly noted. By eliminating this Mass, you are ensuring that none of these future graduates will ever become one of those mean-spirited trads who misread Sacrosanctum Concilium’s affirmation that Gregorian Chant is highly suited for the liturgy, as if it actually said so! Your compassion on the young by erasing any semblance of reverence and sacrifice from their worshipping sensibilities is both laudable and prudent. The last thing we need in our churches are sanctimonious young people genuflecting or, worse yet, kneeling for Communion as if they are trying to be holy. The outdated ecclesiology of striving for holiness has done untold damage to otherwise normal young people who would be better served consuming contemporary media and taking more social action like spray painting graffiti on SUV’s or blowing up car dealerships in the pursuit of environmental justice.
Having said that, I sincerely hope that you intend to update the rest of your diocese to accommodate these new norms. While I am not a Steubenville resident, I have visited and it cannot be denied that St. Peter’s Church is toxically traditional. From its cruciform architecture to the central tabernacle and those oppressive stained glass windows and heavy doors, this structure is a painful reminder of the abusive past that denied us altar girls and promoted anti-feminist and anti-Semitic ideas. Perhaps the best thing we could do is just take the church building down and rebuild. I would suggest a new, rounder building with clear glass doors in the front for that “welcoming” look and an altar in the center of the circle so the community can celebrate itself. A Pachamama statue would be a nice addition too, perhaps mounted on the roof where the congregants enter.
Finally, since this dangerous version of the Mass has been banned, it is of the utmost urgency that every single Latin-English missal be burned or otherwise destroyed immediately. It is too risky that any young people might get some strange ideas by reading the rite and the accompanying prayers. I know a teenage boy who read a copy of the Prayer of St. Ambrose and it took two years of therapy before he finally got the idea of sin out of his mind and began dating. Any notion of being in the so-called “state of grace” or abstaining from the Communion all of us have a right to because of absurd pietistic notions of “mortal sin” must never see the light of day again. This way LGBT people and women in need of abortions can take their rightful place behind the altar for their inevitable ordinations.
Your Excellency, you have taken us out of the dark ages once and for all and I cannot thank you enough for your progressive leadership and protecting all of us from this terrible, dangerous Mass.
Putting aside the incomprehensible fact that Lewis died an Anglican and never entered the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church (I blame, at least partially, his attachment to his invalid marriage to the American divorcée Joy Davidman), I recommend this film which is very unique in its format – an autobiography presented almost entirely as a filmed monologue with Lewis as a spectator to his own life. I would love to see other autobiographies presented in this way. Can you imagine this format applied to St. Augustine? I found it enthralling. This film focuses on the process of Lewis’ conversion from atheist to deist to Christian.
There aren’t many films these days worth a person’s time, but this one is.
