St. John the Baptist in the 21st Century... A Voice Crying in the Wilderness: On Carnal Desire and the Marriage Bed “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!” (Matthew 3:2) A voice cries in the wilderness! Hear, O men and women of Israel, for the wrath of God is revealed against all ungodliness and unrighteousness (Romans 1:18). You have turned from the Creator, darkened your minds, and exchanged the truth of God for a lie (Romans 1:25). Creation itself proclaims the power and wisdom of God, yet you refuse to honor Him. --- Carnal Desire Is the Evil of the Fall Hear and tremble: the lust of the flesh — carnal desire — is not a blessing, not a gift, not a natural good.

It goes without saying that, on this last point, the status of the Traditional Latin Mass after Traditionis Custodes will not be the only topic of discussion, but it is clear that it will be an important one, if not the only raising a debate among the cardinal. This is the opinion of Spuntoni, who is particularly well-informed. It is easy to imagine Cardinals Müller and Burke, and probably Cardinal Brandmüller as well, and others too—Zuppi? Aveline?—advocating for calm. In fact, the media frenzy surrounding that event, not significant in itself but of symbolic importance, as the …

What I think is that this guy's fruitcake hair indicates that he is likely detached from reality, and, while any actual facts spoken by him should be weighed carefully, any conclusions drawn by him should be considered utterly bonkers until and unless arrived at independently.
