In 1966, the Minister General of the Franciscans visited Padre Pio a little before the special chapter that was to deal with new constitutions. He met Padre Pio in the cloister and asked him for prayers and his blessings. "Father, I have come to commend the special chapter for the new constitutions to your prayers". He had barely uttered the words "special chapter" and "new constitutions", when Padre Pio made a violent gesture and exclaimed: "All this is nothing but destructive nonsense". "But, Father, after all, the younger generation must be taken into account. Young people evolve according to their fashions. There are needs, new demands." "The only thing lacking, said Padre Pio, are the soul and the heart, they are everything, intelligence and love." He left for his cell but turned around saying: "We must not distort ourselves, we must not distort ourselves! At the judgement of the Lord, St Francis will not receive us as his children!" A year later, the same scene repeated itself at …More

1. Council of Trent "The candle is lit with a match. If anyone does not say that the candle is lit with a match, let him be anathema". 2. Vatican II "As the Council Fathers explained at the Holy Council of Trent, a candle is lit only with a match, which is first lit near a source of heat called fire, which may be from a lighter or a cooker. However, according to the customs of the local Churches, the candle may be lit directly with the lighter in contact with the wick, or with a piece of paper brought into contact with the fire, or with a gas lighter, or with a candle in contact with the other candle but which must first have been in contact with a flame, or, according to different local pastoral needs, with other lawful means which may be used for the above purpose. 3. Synod of Synods We need to put ourselves in a perspective of listening to the Spirit and discernment to understand the meaning of kindling so that the kindler is a "we" and not an "I".

All Hallows' Eve Song (Souling song) Kristen Lawrence on Mar 17, 2013 A soul cake is a small round cake which is traditionally made for All Hallows' Eve, All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day to commemorate the dead in the Christian tradition.[1][2] The cakes, often simply referred to as souls, are given out to soulers (mainly consisting of children and the poor) who go from door to door during the days of Allhallowtide singing and saying prayers "for the souls of the givers and their friends".[1] The practice in England dates to the medieval period,[3] and was continued there until the 1930s,[4] by both both Protestant and Catholic Christians.[5][1] The practice of giving and eating soul cakes continues in some countries today, such as Portugal (where it is known as Pão-por-Deus),[6] and in other countries, it is seen as the origin of the practice of trick-or-treating.[7] In Lancashire and in the North-east of England they are also known as Harcakes.[8] In the United States, some …More

The article from the Jewish newspaper Haaretz dated 2015. Contrary to the common perception, intimate relations between people of the same sex did not always have a negative image in Jewish communities. On July 7, 1971, Haaretz published an opinion piece (in Hebrew) entitled “Israel or Sodom: Public condoning of sexual perversions – a grave matter.” The author, Eliezer Livneh (Liebenstein), was a former Knesset member from Mapai (precursor of today’s Labor Party) who become one of the main ideologists of the Greater Land of Israel movement. He wrote in response to calls at the time to cancel the sodomy law (which was ultimately cancelled only in 1988, thanks to Shulamit Aloni). Livneh was neither ultra-Orthodox nor Orthodox, but rather a Jewish nationalist, yet his main argument was that homosexuality is foreign to Judaism, constitutes a foreign influence by degenerate Western culture and should be combatted. In the op-ed he claimed that for hundreds of years Jews in the Diaspora succeeded …More

The article became kind of disgusting, as discussions of this topic tend to. Jews have, from pretty early on, had those who were guilty of this horrible vice. Otherwise, we would not see such condemnation of it in both Testaments. But, so has every other society had it’s struggles with it. But, celebrating sodomites as an exalted race is something of modern secular atheism, and many modern secular atheists are Jews, with plenty of “catholics” sprinkled in. “Gays” have only really existed since the middle of the last century, or so. Sodomites have polluted practically every time and place.

GUARDIAN of TRADITION: The World Premiere For the past forty years, the flagship event of Traditional Catholicism worldwide has been the Notre Dame de Chretiente Pentecost Pilgrimage from Parish to Chartres. This epic RTV documentary explores the history, the present, and the future of the Pilgrimage as the premier event uniting Traditional Catholics from countries all over the world. In light of the motu proprio of Pope Francis, Traditionis Custodes, restricting the Latin Mass worldwide, the Pilgrimage emerges as a powerful counterattack in defense of the Mass of history. Featuring interviews of priests, laymen (young and old), and bishops involved with this massive piece of traditional Catholic action, this documentary provides a comprehensive treatment of what traditional Catholicism after the Second Vatican Council is all about, why it matters, how it has helped to transform a few independent voices of Catholic restoration into a powerful and united movement that is changing history …More

Milwaukee Archdiocese announced the death of its former Archbishop Rembert Weakland, 95, on 22 August. A church musician, consultant at Vatican II, and former Abbot Primate of the Benedictines, he was one of the great stars of modernism, a darling of the oligarch media, and a preacher of decadence. Paul VI appointed him to Milwaukee in 1977. But shortly before his 75th birthday, it was revealed that in the 1980s he kept a male lover to whom the Milwaukee Archdiocese had paid $450,000 to avoid a lawsuit and cover up a scandal. In 2002 Weakland retired. In 2009, it was revealed that he had shredded reports about homosexual abusers in the priesthood, and he admitted that he had continued to appoint them without warning anyone. Weakland apologised in his autobiography by saying that he did not understand that homosexual abuse was a crime [because the oligarch media cheered paedophilia at the time]. Weakland was less generous towards the faithful of the Latin Mass. He treated them like lepers …More

Peter Kwasniewski: "Here are a few pictures from a chapel that a family recently finished building in their basement [correction: living room] (obviously I am not going to say where it is) in order to accommodate the celebration of the traditional Mass, which is done by a visiting priest. This kind of thing happened all the time in the 1970s. It will happen again in our days, wherever necessary. Tradition will never be suppressed. After an uneasy period it will reemerge from the catacombs into the full light of day, even as the early Christians emerged from their house churches into the Roman basilicas."
