Aside from major news on the SSPX – there are stories herein that are integrally related
Quite a few have asked – why is so very little of what is really going on in the Catholic Church , as seen here , not being broadcast or available anywhere either in the regular media, the Catholic media, or via the Church itself – valid question –
It’s quite simple. There is radical liberal majority in the Church whose power base is only now visibly starting to crumble at the facade, yet they continue to enforce their edicts that the revolution within the Catholic Church WILL NOT be aired under any media they have influence in and control of, and anyone that does not maintain the affront of the sheen of denial – ( the reigning corporate culture of the Catholic Church) is subject to suppression and or potential sanctions- full stop-
Pope ready to regularize SSPX? : News Headlines | Catholic Culture
Letter to all the prelates of SSPX by their superior general was just leaked, indicating a Society wide call to accept a potential regularization to Personal Prelature – as ‘an Order in full communion with the Church’
The letter is extensive and appears as if the SSPX and other high ranking Vatican prelates among the Faithful and Orthodox Catholics see the SSPX as being able to bring a life of order and holiness back to into Church that is here embroiled in crisis on every issue
The Vatican will allow the questioning of Vatican II without a requirement of its adoption for the traditional order & its Catholics, it’s acceptance of it as a non-doctrinal pastoral approach that is NOT infallible Catholicism (which every professional theologian and faithful Cardinal has maintained from the beginning !)
The Schmidberger Letter urging SSPX acceptance of regularization: English translation and French original
In general in the Catholic Church something has to break here in this raging two Churches that are completely opposite on the interpretation of every doctrine – dogma- Sacrament – theology and philosophy – To attempt to maintain that there is not preconciliar Catholicism and postconciliar Catholicism, has begun to move from the realm within the Church as a phenomenon of denial to a lie that is becoming tantamount to a confessible serious sin
Some key examples
The Spain Archbishop has just banned THE PREFECT OF THE CONGREGATION OF THE DOCTRINE OF FAITH – THE CDF himself from speaking at a University to present his new book- The Archbishop claims HIS C. Muller’s theology, (as if there was such a thing) of his orthodox Catholicism is against the Pope ! Archbishop Bans Cardinal Müller From University Because New Book is, “Against the Pope”
The Pope just wrote to and acknowledged Hans Kung ?! the dissident and suspended Ad Divinis – Vatican II theologian – This periti advisor to Vatican II, you will remember, has been calling ( from the beginning) for ‘ Communion for the married and divorced” “Refutation of the Real Presence” Abolition of celibacy and women Priests !
CatholicHerald.co.uk » Pope replied to my letter on infallibility debate, says Hans Küng
There was another major leak this week in France – The head lodges of Freemasonry had their servers infiltrated
There is about to be published an extensive list of Priests, High Ranking Prelates and Politicians that are active members of the Masonic construction of the new world order – I expect that by this time next month this will be a game changer that will partially end the Catholic era of the denial of the revolution in the Catholic Church underway since Vatican II and escalating in every decade hence –

Enter in – the errors of the neo-Catholic religion of many within our Holy Mother Church
Although John Paul II had himself ventured into waters of false ecumenism on many an occasion, he never attempted to change the doctrine or the catechetical dogmas of the Catholic Church.
Today’s neo-Catholic Church actually encourages Catholics to attend protestant assemblies and events at which events there is ALWAYS a promotion of divorce of Christ from His Body the Church (in word or literature), which of course is theoretically and physically impossible
We have professional lay Catholic people today that work in rectories and dicastry offices and many confused Catholic Priests telling people it is not only ok to attend protestant speakers, events and to “experience” islamic cultures first hand but makes encouragement of their heresy public
Those that have studied the reformation know that it was largely the errors of protestantism that were a direct contributor to the spread of the multiplicity of the apostasy of islam on much greater scales of magnitude.
The dichotomy of all this was that it was Saint John Paul II himself in a speech at Salmanca that stated verbatim ” Be on guard against the dangerous illusion of separating Christ from His Church and the Church from the Magisterium”
But it is the new Catholic religion come about, that is telling us quite the diametric opposite – that we need these “experiences” so that we can “enter in” to the mystery of Christ and towards the goal of having an “‘existential’ experience in Christ’ Therefore today’s spiritual sensory craving orientation of peoples increasingly seeks out heresy rather than to use the opportunity to infuse themselves with the knowledge of the hows and whys of the actual errors vs. the abject Truth.
The then Cardinal Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI) termed this as false . He stated that outside of Holy Mass there should be attended events of solid Catechesis and stated flatly Catechesis is essentially intellectual and aims to transmit knowledge, NOT to produce an existential experience or to what is called the ‘insertion’ into the mystery of Christ
Here we have some the errant deviations causing dissolution within the mystical Body of Christ at their root and to whose confusion a sword has emerged in our midst to help remedy

If you have a young adult considering a vocation and or you do Catholic apologetics individually or in small group for separated friends and family you must have a 1917 Code of Canon Law book on hand to know what is true and what is not true

Close to half of everything that has been issued an Imprimatur /Nil Obistat after the Council is erred and therefore meaningless – The amount of books that have either apostate or heretical teachings in them with a post-conciliar Imprimatur /Nil Obistat has exceeded the hundreds and hundreds and are easily into the thousands
Here is one that is a good starter there are dozens of other solid ones – reminding us that we must start over with people from Natural Law onward
Most everyone is already aware, in detail, of the heretical false ecumenism of the Catholic NAB – Bible – the “New American Bible” that is used in the new Mass – Remove it from your household library it makes almost as many unauthorized changes to words – sentences and topics that the jehovahs witness bible does
No bible teacher uses it either in the New Rite or the Old -not even Jeff Cavins packaged bible classes based on reading through the Covenants between God and Man uses it, it’s horrendous

The Revised Standard Version that everyone always asked me about has dozens and dozens of corrections back to Truth but still contains many protestant errors that change the meaning of sentences
Most people are shocked that the new Rite continues to use that NAB in the Mass in the US – The Hispanic countries new Rite is bad but no where near the NAB – The pride and errors of the USCCB are just egregious
Even more fascinating is that over 25% of all the people that have returned to traditional Catholic Rites

What is this all about?!
The Catholic Church, the one true Holy Apostolic Roman Catholic Church is under a continuous siege that has moved from without the Church to a revolution within Church since the 1960s
It is in the process of deposing the theocratic model of the Church and distribute power to a form of Christian democracy in the failed models of protestantism
It is entertaining proposals from the feminist women’s lobby in their quest for roles in the Vatican congregations as well as major Dicastries
The current Pope that was prophesized by Malachy a 12th, century Archbisho, p to be the last Pope of the Catholic Church (which could potentially mean the last reigning Pope that possessed magisterial authority prior to divesting the authority Papacy, dispatching it to local collegiality and declaring personal conscience rule the day
The current Pope has promised to dedicate in his Pontificate one entire Synod to the “ collegial “ discussion of laicizing the priesthood and removing the requirements of Priestly celibacy in the west
It must first prepare the way to polygamy before polytheism (multiple gods) can be restored to paganism in the west
The Anti-Christ is coming – the prophesy that in the end of times men will become women and women men is upon us and has escalated it’s full force upon civilization
How will the relativist radical secular humanism of anthropocentrism force the world to worship Baphomet the rising false God of androgyny -? And the re-ushering Inconceivable many will say …I will never do it…..most will say
The engines of the “Goat of Mendes” –the uniting of the forces through Hollywood(s) plural – fueled by powerful masonic governments that are in support of ultra-feminism will change the minds and the will of people by disseminating its message in every form of media to the depths of the souls of the peoples
It is the
The rising phoenix
The eastern mystery religions of the coming to power of the joining of opposites. It decries its Litany that goes on and on ….”I am the whore AND the virgin” , “”I am he AND she” ” I am the night and the day” …for pages …..
You will remember how Satan – the ultimate dragon brought Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior to the top of the parapet of the Temple and unto the mountain tops and showed him all the Kingdoms he would give him charge of he were to yield to him but Jesus rebuked him
In the frustration of the enemy and to have the people worship his creation he was reminded that he was unable to create a bird or even as much as a bee but satan remained steadfast that one day he would create something and he would form the worship of the world of it because as he believes he is the reigning prince of this world and this right he believes is his regardless of his near pending extinction
Therefore he created “The Transvestite” that will rise to power
In today’s scripture Reading in the Office of Readings In The Liturgy of the Hours is – Revelation 13
3And I saw one of his heads as it were slain to death: and his death’s wound was healed. And all the earth was in admiration after the beast. 4And they adored the dragon, which gave power to the beast: and they adored the beast, saying: Who is like to the beast? and who shall be able to fight with him? 5And there was given to him a mouth speaking great things, and blasphemies: and power was given to him to do two and forty months. 6And he opened his mouth unto blasphemies against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. 7And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them. And power was given him over every tribe, and people, and tongue, and nation. 8And all the dwell upon the earth adored him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb, which was slain from the beginning of the world. 9If any man have an ear, let him hear. 10He that shall lead into captivity, shall go into captivity: he that shall kill by the sword, must be killed by the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints11And I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns, like a lamb, and he spoke as a dragon. 12And he executed all the power of the former beast in his sight; and he caused the earth, and them that dwell therein, to adore the first beast, whose wound to death was healed. 13And he did great signs, so that he made also fire to come down from heaven unto the earth in the sight of men. 14And he seduced them that dwell on the earth, for the signs, which were given him to do in the sight of the beast, saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make the image of the beast, which had the wound by the sword, and lived. 15And it was given him to give life to the image of the beast, and that the image of the beast should speak; and should cause, that whosoever will not adore the image of the beast, should be slain.
Without being profane the ‘wound’ discussed in Scripture is its genitailia. Further to the substantiation points, you will notice that when the States were battling one at a time for legalizing sodomite marriages as well as in other parts of the world (and there were hundreds and hundreds of legal professionals in it’s evil employ) that what delayed the States from falling faster one after another you will find in many a news release was the lobbyists of the creation of a 3rd sex’s bitter hold out for their legal ultimate trophy – “rights for the transgendered” which is written into the majority of the States constitutions in a great litany of details
States in the majority held laws all the way up until the 1950s that if caught in an act of homosexuality it was punishable by a felony conviction – Reiterating those facts and laws is now a hate crime in several of those same States – Fulfilling Scripture where the good and the righteous will become viewed as bad and the opposite will become the good and the righteous and made to appear same in the eyes of the people
While not advocating any specific site/apostolate /religion or person in these videos, here are some links– to give the overall idea and the weight of the Scriptural prophetic nature and the Sacred Tradition concept that the beginning of the end of times has clearly begun
Insertion of advanced chemical bio-engineering and to speed the sex change processes of the new race
It will become legal and part of required tax contributions
It’s power will advance just like abortion has and everyone is now required to financially contribute to the rights of your neighbors to kill their children in the womb – something inconceivable several decades ago
Therefore everyone will potentially meet the requirement of serving the beast or go to jail
Before I digress topics and go into a humorous slant during a serious subject and discuss the US constitutional rights to bear arms and protect one’s family & property and where good legal gun stores are located – laughs
Remember ! that it’s goal is to shut down the womb and have others worship its crushing – Our Davidic Queen has crushed its head once and in the Incarnation of the Word of God that became flesh She will again and that is why this same era of contradistinction will now also be called the Reign of Mary
For we Serve the Majesty of Her Son
The United Nations is committed in it’s top three agenda items to making transgender equal rights- a global requirement and you will see that escalate in these days in strange out of proportion speeds
Most believe “IT” will rule – if not in this generation then the one that immediately follows and it will inact global abortion rights from conception past the womb – even unto new definitions of “personhood”
If the people will allow IT to overcome them and be ruled by them – The Lord will allow it in a chastisement that many will say the current world deserves.
The Church will help it along and it will become illegal to pray for the conversion of a homosexual to heterosexual in the near future
For all this talk of trusting Shepards and becoming more docile sheep – that is NOT this era – This era call for the rise of the Church Militant and a war time concigliere
Diocesan Pastor Calls Brother Priests to Stand and Resist, Warns ……………
What if the one attempting “Shepard the Sheep” in a certain cornered direction is a Wolf ?
What is certain is that we have entered an era known as the beginning of the end of time
The Remnants of Christianity that have not been fooled into accepting a host of false anthropocentric Liturgies will unite with a large remnant of converted Jews
Once it comes to full and reigning power know that there is less than four earth years left and the cataclysms – if they have not already begun, will escalate
The issues of climate that the peoples believe are man-made will become astronomical occurrences of increasing frequency

Re-introducing the late Cardinal Leo Joseph Suenens who passed away in 1996
He was the leading Vatican II prelate that #1 formed the moast controversial of the Vatican II documents contested and challenged for their Catholic authenticity for decades Lumen gentium and Gaudium et spes.likewise he was the primary Ecclesial advocate of the Charismatic Catholic (“Renewal” ?)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leo_Joseph_Suenens
Both he and Shorborn broke the Latin only Ecclesial composition by authoring Guadium Et Specs – new constitution – “in French” and initiating the first controversies of language interpretation and being open to the spirit – as many of the same words and phrases in the document (that was also adjusted many times with omissions and additions ) in something completely different than it’s Italian /Latin version of the same document of non-binding pastoral content to insinuate a new law –
Same method being used today as in the above current news stories as seen here
aka Guadium Et Specs Concluding statement in French “We wish to give the force of law to all that we have set forth “
In Italian “What we have here established and ordained we wish to remain valid and effective for now”
And on and on …etymologists have had a field day with the hundreds and hundreds of discoveries of the intended contradictions and re-compositions of Post Concilar Catholicism
What these Cardinals have in common is ushering in – personal interpretation by “the Spirit” – in becoming the new leading Ecclesial advocates of the Charismatic Renewal to propagate same They have been on-board from the beginning, and have indoctrinated many a Bishop, with liberalizing Holy Communion to divorced and remarried and to all of its current abuses such as protestant “ministers” of Holy Communion in the hand and on and on ….
As Pope Benedict XVI had repeatedly stated ministers are only present in protestant assemblies and there are no ministers in the Catholic Church only Deacon and Sub-Deacons – Pope Benedict likewise banned all lay distributors of Holy Communion as well as banning Holy Communion in the hand
Watch any Papal event from his last years on You Tube and you will see people who stick out their hands for the Lord’s Sacrifice being rightfully denied Holy Communion to which the protestants of course objected and the Charismatics sided with the protestants
One of the head NAE directors – Meet Samuel Rodriguez
Samuel Rodriguez – claim to fame is his relationship with the Charismatic Catholic Renewal which he personally considers a God send because it sends him the majority of all of his converts
Quoting him directly =”If you are fortunate enough to be part of the Charismatic Catholics the majority of you will be a member of one of my Churches within 10 years” as statistics continue to prove him correct https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Rodriguez
Samuel Rodriquez responsible for more conversions of Catholics than any other ex-Catholic evangelical Pastor has a specialty in “inviting ” Charismatics to his not so moderate easier world http://www.politicalresearch.org/2012/10/02/rev-samuel-rodriguez-not-so-moderate/#sthash.iYrIhi6I.dpbs
The Charismatic Appetite of the Cult Of Experience “Does it deviate from a true form of Catholic Penance and true Communion” on New Orthodox Review
Why is not the Catholicism of our fathers – their grandfathers and their grandfather ancestors enough for us today – Does the timeless Faith of the ages lack something ?
Was the Catholic Church wrong and is there now a great shining enlightenment upon it in the last fifty years ? (As Vatican II and the Charismatic Renewal are roughly the same age )
Or do statistics in the United States indicate that in the last 50 years we have lost 40% of Diocesan Priests – 50% of religious order Priests – 40% of Brothers 90% of vowed religious order teachers and 75% of the nuns are gone
These are facts of the current era since Vatican II from the US Bishops current statistics
The obvious trajectory
If we continue at the current trajectory “In the spirit” and “open to personal interpretation” 50% of the Catholic Churches and schools that are still open today will be completely shuttered in 36 months. If the traditional Catholic restoration movement is not embraced on a wider level and the current Episcopate’s radical liberal and egalitarianism is not deposed and properly excoriated as every generation of Patriarchy and Saint before us have done then we will witness in the very near future the devastated vineyard

What follows are background for both the initiated and the uninitiated- Keeping in mind this relativistic secular Education Crisis that is bankrupt of authentic Catholic ideals morals, virtues and the Catholic imagination resident within the Mystical Body of Christ began long before the infiltration of the government’s Common Core fiasco into establishment Catholic schools
The following is the Forward on a book entitled “Restoring The Family” by Mirian T Horvat PdD
It is in our view that the American traditionalist and conservative movements are probably the most important in today’s world. Often, one of their characteristics is courage. I will focus on just one point . Because parents objected to the revolutionary path of public schools and progressivist hues of religious institutions of learning , they refused to send their children to them . From this general reaction the initiative of home-schooling was born. These parents did not fear the fashionable accusations : “Your children will not have companions to socialize with” or “your children will not have a diploma after finishing their studies” They cared first about the spiritual and intellectual health of their children; the rest would come And come it did. The State has already started recognizing these studies pursued at home so that homes-schooled students can enroll in universities . Also and even better , various conservative and traditionalist colleges have been founded here and there to provide higher education to these youth after high-school. Therefore, the American home-schooling initiative won citizenship . At the beginning of the battle were two principal elements: Catholic Faith and courage
The successful American experiment provides a good example to be followed by those European and Latin American Catholics who are also conservatives or traditionalists, but still fearful of social pressures. My Intention, however, is not to enter into the moral counsels. I want to point out another interesting consequence of the mentioned initiative
By taking their children out of those schools and keeping them at home, the parents, perhaps without realizing it entirely, were creating conditions for a Catholic restoration of family life. Several factors contributed to this fact
First, this reaction on the whole represented a leap back in Catholic religious formation to a state of things before Vatican II, which means a return of 50 years. As for the general education, this reaction signified a return to a state of things before public schooling became compulsory under law, that is about 100 years ago. What this return signified then is that the children are being raised in a healthy moral milieu, out of the stream of the most recent revolutionary customs and ideas
Second, when the children are at home, the parents must educate them, the mother during the day, the father after work. This education is no longer the cold anonymous education of remunerated employees of a distant instant institution, but a personalized instruction given in an ambiance of love and respect. Instead of money to form their children, the parents have to give of themselves, their old school books and recall those forgotten rules of grammar so necessary to speak well, those main facts of History indispensable for a clear understanding of the political and social reality or even those boring laws and formulas of Physics and Chemistry that will allow their children to analyze what is happening is Science today. When a brother or sister is more advanced, he or she also helps teach the younger children . Besides the learning at home, which we believe can be more efficient that elsewhere, this familiar instruction is an inestimable factor of psychological stability and security for children who grow up in a warm ambiance of consideration.
This, the confidence of children in their parents increases. Instead of being viewed as merely the ones who pay for their outside education, the parents are seen as teachers, the ones who know and explain for them what are life, religion, history, and science. It is not necessary to stress that this continuity of the same familiar thinking is a powerful factor to avoid conflicts and improve harmony inside a home.
Without the pretension of presenting a complete picture, I simply wanted to exemplify how the Catholic family found a great factor of restoration in the homeschooling movement
Explaining these principals are of course not limited to home schooling but of course overlap to touch on the importance of family traditions for a Catholic home: the significance of maintaining the same house and land to avoid instability and the disappearance of the family; the importance of the father and the goodness of the mother
In another example given in conclusion,
a traditional Catholic family that Dr. Horvat described of an 18 year old – “a ray of light that crossed her path” – the eldest daughter of a large family, her mother a housewife and home schooler, who stayed at home teaching the children and re-assuming the parental right and duty to educate the children. Her father with a confident, calm, air, clearly the head of his family The daughter beautiful, composed, with a purity of countenance proper to the feminine ideal, told me she had finished her high school studies.
What will you do now ? I inquired. “I’m going to stay home I can help my mother and set up a little home business with an idea my father and I are working on. I can’t imagine going away and living by myself. I love my little brothers and sisters and want to be part of their lives “
Instead of following the modern fashion to leave home at age 18 to get a job and apartment , or move to a dormitory in a university far from home to assert her “independence”, this girl realized the value of being part of a whole, the family, with the protection it afforded to develop her personality
What this young lady was expressing, without realizing it was the life of her family was sufficient for her to fulfill her existence . First , she felt that she was fulfilling her filial fraternal duties. Second she was acquiring the taste for the small pleasures and happiness that a life lived with temperance brings. Third, with this unpretentious and joyful way of being, she was preparing herself to be a faithful wife and good mother in the future. Fourth, and foremost she was pleasing Our Lord and Our Lady who had with Saint Joseph in Nazareth a simple life like this filled with all the simple blessed pleasures the family life can bring. This family life yesterday as today, is born from tradition and founded on the principals of authority, hierarchy, and courage, lived in a calm and confident environment. That this life is beginning to re-emerge in families offers a hope of grand regeneration to come.
