Don’t forget the Roman Station Church pilgrimage- a different church in Rome (almost) every day in Lent. This Pilgrimage is an important part of the ancient Roman Catholic Liturgy of Lent, not a travelogue gimmick.

If you subscribe to Crux Stationalis’ channel, you can catch each day’s video easily.

Today is the gorgeous church of the 4th century Roman martyrs John and Paul, whose names are in the Canon of the Mass:

Communicántes, et memóriam venerántes, in primis gloriósæ semper Vírginis Maríæ, Genetrícis Dei et Dómini nostri Jesu Christi: sed

et beatórum Apostolórum ac Mártyrum tuórum, Petri et Pauli, Andréæ, Jacóbi, Joánnis, Thomæ, Jacóbi, Philíppi, Bartholomǽi, Matthǽi, Simónis et Thaddǽi: Lini, Cleti, Cleméntis, Xysti, Cornélii, Cypriáni, Lauréntii, Chrysógoni, Joánnis et Pauli, Cosmæ et Damiáni: et ómnium Sanctórum tuórum; quorum méritis precibúsque concédas, ut in ómnibus protectiónis tuæ muniámur auxílio. Per eúndem Christum, Dóminum nostrum. Amen.

We pray in union with and honor the memory, especially of the glorious ever Virgin Mary, mother of our God and Lord Jesus Christ:

and of the blessed Apostles and Martyrs Peter and Paul, Andrew, James, John, Thomas, James, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Simon, and Thaddeus; Linus, Cletus, Clement, Xystus, Cornelius, Cyprian, Lawrence, Chrysogonus, John and Paul, Cosmas and Damian, and of all Thy Saints, through whose merits and prayers, grant that we may in all things be defended by the help of Thy protection. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

Mis-lived Lives and Un-manned Men

“Is not ours an age of mis-lived lives, of un-manned men?

Why?

Because Jesus Christ has disappeared.

Wherever the people are true Christians, there are men to be found in large numbers, but everywhere and always, if Christianity wilts, the men wilt. Look closely, they are no longer men but shadows of men.

Thus what do you hear on all sides today? The world is dwindling away, for lack of men; the nations are perishing for scarcity of men, for the rareness of men.

I do believe: there are no men where there is no character; there is no character where there are no principles, doctrines, stands taken; there are no stands taken, no doctrines, no principles, where there is no religious faith and consequently no religion of society.

Do what you will: only from God you will get men.”

Cardinal Pie, ARSH 1815-1880

 

If only there had been some sort of sign or red flag…

Folks, I know this is going to come as a massive shock, but Fr. Jerry Kaywell has been put on “administrative leave” after being accused of child molestation.

Y’all remember him. He’s THIS guy. NO RED FLAGS or WARNING SIGNS HERE!! Nosiree Bob!

Trust your gaydar, folks. If it looks like a faggot, walks like a faggot, and talks like a faggot… it’s almost certainly a faggot.

And faggots are vampiric, and are, every single one, a clear and present danger to children, and especially pubescent lads. Dykes are a clear and present danger to little girls and teens.

Suppressing one’s gaydar and exposing children to sodomites is a species of child sacrifice to Moloch. Kaywell’s behavior was so vomitously gay that it crossed a line into public obscenity. Shame on his parishioners for tolerating such campy behavior in the first place. They were accomplices in Kaywell’s predation of youngsters.

Happy Feast of St. Scholastica, twin sister of St. Benedict

Jean Baptiste de Champaigne (1631-1681) “Saint Benedict and Saint Scholastica and Two Companions in a Landscape”

The propers of the Mass of a Virgin not a martyr are some of my favorites:

The Introit, from Psalm 44:

Thou hast loved justice, and hated iniquity: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

My heart hath uttered a good word I speak my works to the king.

And the Gradual, again from Psalm 44:

With thy comeliness and thy beauty set out, proceed prosperously, and reign. Because of truth and meekness and justice: and thy right hand shall conduct thee wonderfully.

Hearken, O daughter, and see, and incline thy ear: And the king shall greatly desire thy beauty;

All the rich among the people, shall entreat thy countenance. the daughters of kings have delighted thee in thy glory.

After her shall virgins be brought to the king: her neighbours shall be brought to thee. They shall be brought with gladness and rejoicing: they shall be brought into the temple of the king.

Betcha can’t say it without laughing…!

I saw this comment somewhere a while back and thought it worth sharing:

Fr. Linus Clovis has said that the Church and the anti-church CURRENTLY co-exist, occupying the same sacramental, liturgical, and juridical space.

Does anyone doubt this? Of course not.

Now, say the following without laughing out loud: “Jorge Bergoglio is the head of the Church, opposing the anti-church.”

Not satire: Internet-connected electronic toothbrushes hacked and used to execute a denial-of-service attack.

It’s rapidly approaching, if we aren’t already there, the necessity to go original gangster Atari 2400-style and literally turn off, unplug, and put away in a drawer all electronic devices when not specifically in use. As in turn off your laptop, unplug your router, power off your phone. Everything.

I shan’t insult the intelligence of the readership with admonitions to never buy Wi-Fi connected appliances or gadgets of any stripe. Apparently there are now Wi-Fi connected electronic toothbrushes… that are hacked and become denial-of-service attack-bots. Lovely.

Oh… awkward. This admonition also goes for cars.

Second look at that ’51 Hudson Commodore with the Dynaflow transmission, amirite?

And brush your own teeth with good ol’ elbow grease. Remember your first Reach toothbrush? CUTTING EDGE TECHNOLOGY… in ’82. Good times.

And don’t forget to floss. You don’t have to floss all of your teeth; just the ones you want to keep. 😁

Fascinating testimony of man who went from “terminal” cancer to “100% cancer-free” by taking Fenbendazole – marketed as an animal dewormer.

This is from Jim Breuer’s podcast. Breuer was on Saturday Night Live in the ’90s. It’s fascinating to see the handful of SNL people who have escaped that world and maintained a semblance of sanity (faint praise in today’s world). Victoria Jackson (always a conservative Christian), Dennis Miller, Rob Schneider, Jon Lovitz, Adam Sandler, and now Jim Breuer.

This testimony is fascinating. Fenbendazole popped up on our radar a couple of years ago. The linkage between cancer and these antiparasitics (like Ivermectin as well) which simultaneously have strong anti-tumoric properties needs intense study… after the war when actual science is being done again.

Action Item: Prayers for Dr. Mazza’s op/ed on the invalid resignation of Pope Benedict to be published in a major news outlet on February 11th – the 11th anniversary

Our own Dr. Mazza has penned a fantastic op/ed piece for a major news outlet. Prayers up that the piece is published in next Sunday’s edition, the 11th anniversary of Pope Benedict trying to half quit the Papacy.

St. Peter, pray for us!

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on us!
