When Paul wrote, “But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach a gospel to you besides that which we have preached to you, let him be anathema,” he was admitting that he battled against principalities and powers and it was only the grace of God which preserved him, and it was not impossible that God’s permissive will may allow him to fall. A valid Pope is not some magical creature, above humanity and, apparently, above sanctity. This pope stands against the Gospel of of Paul. We must treat him with kindness, for he is in desperate need of our prayers, but show no respect for any of his pronouncements which contradict Paul. Paul made no provision for an “invalid Paul.” It didn’t matter to Paul and it should not matter to us. We cling to the Apostolic Tradition because our lives depend on it. We defend it against all who would distort it, no matter the “validity” of their role.

The foundation of the Synodal Church is that our problems today are not only different than the problems in the past, but incomparable with the problems of the past. Yet every evidence we have is that the tools are different but the problems the same. People are fallen. Some sell sub-standard goods. Some write overly long complaint letters. We still have “Lovers of themselves, covetous, haughty, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, wicked, without affection, without peace, slanderers, incontinent, unmerciful, without kindness, traitors, stubborn, puffed up, and lovers of pleasures more than of God. The problems haven’t changed and neither has the solution, for He is the same yesterday, today and forever.

If it has not been clear lo these many years that the "Synodal Church" (variously called, "Church of the New Advent", "The Vatican II Church") has nothing in common with the One Catholic and Apostolic Church, it is clear now. The essence of the Apostolic Church is that there are truths which are immutable which are revealed either through the Apostles and/or through creation itself. To make either type of truth subject to the "modern thought" is to lack the understanding of revelation and of reality. Such people should be pitied, helped if possible, otherwise ignored. That statement specifically avoids saying that Francis is not Pope. It seems that such a legal determination is not in any of our capacities. However, we are instructed by Paul the Apostle, "But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach a gospel to you besides that which we have preached to you, let him be anathema." Note that is making it clear that the role, rank, reputation or history of the person does not change the …More

The crucial change was not who could be baptized but who can be a godparent. The role of godparent is to assist in the brining up of the baptized in the faith. One needs to have the faith in order to support another in the faith. Having the faith includes the humility to accept God’s will in spite of your feelings and desires. Gender ideology directly contradicts that foundational principle.

Anyone, who is not already baptized, can be baptized. But, if they have not truly renounced Satan, and all his works, and all his pomps, they do not receive sanctifying grace at the time of Baptism. They sin gravely by being baptized, in fact. They receive the baptismal character, no matter what, if they have been validly baptized, though.

“Major US companies gave 94% of new jobs to people of color.” This is an exceedingly misleading headline. It is read as if 94% of the jobs went to Blacks, Hispanics, etc. - There are 164 million jobs in the US. - During 2021, there was a 0.2% increase in jobs (300K). Pretty lousy results for an economy which journalists tell us is not in a recession. - Of the 8 million job openings in the US, 7.7 million were to replace retirees or people who quit. 300,000 were “new jobs.” - The increase in employment by “persons of color,” a lot of those being the Asians, Indians major tech firms are importing, was about 282,000. No actual measure is made of how many of those people took “old jobs” vs. “new jobs.” - So this is a case of journalistic malpractice.

Just the posting of this in secular media shows they are pushing for this. I have worked many jobs where I have seen black people being hired just because they were black. I had my life threated on the job by a black man and no one did anything about it even though he took out a knife. I was also slapped in the face by a black woman for saying she was lazy. I got a black eye and was told I was raciest for singling her out. There is defiantly a spirit of hate towards whites in this country and this article shows you a little of that. One would have to be blind not to see the hatred of whites in this country. My wife is Asian and we once worked in the same building. The minorities would approach her not knowing she was married to a white man telling her how evil white men are. I pray this hatred stops but unfortunately I see it getting worse in our society.

It seems a tremendous amount of thought, effort and prayer has gone into “if” Francis is Pope. It is a fair question but perhaps there is a different approach. Aquinas notes that one legitimately disobeys a superior of that superior is giving instructions outside his area of authority. The Pope’s purpose and authority is to preserve and defend the deposit of faith which has been passed down from the Apostles. If the Pope gives advice on hygiene or auto speed limits, we would know, regardless of the “faith words” used in the presentation, that he speaks with no authority at all. By the same token, if a Pope’s words seek to change or expose the faith passed down from the Apostles to danger, we would also know to ignore him. It is no more disrespectful to the Pope to ignore the suggestion that what Peter and Paul taught was wrong than to ignore his advice on shampoo or skin cream. To formulate a Synodal Church, that is, one which gives authority to local synods to revise the deposit of …More

This is a great response, and I've read that millions of faithful Catholics, and even priests,religious, bishops and even Cardinals, are doing just this...ignoring Pope Francis and his trying to build another form of Church. He is an apostate and heretic, in love with homosexuality. Most of his associates are either pro-homo, or openly homo themselves, or "outed" as homo (Tucho Fernandez). We owe them nothing.

How in the world can one misinterpret that the Lord was generous to those who worked but an hour but not to those who worked not at all? He has indeed been marvelously generous to me, a latecomer to the faith. He offers a chance of similar generosity to those “in the highways and byways” but only if they join the work in the vineyard. Woe to those who mislead the little ones in the faith.

Why be envious because I am generous? Homily for the 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year A. God’s indiscriminate and abundant generosity is extended to everybody, even to those rejected, to the outcasts that nobody wants. It is amazing grace. Grace that can be calculated and expected is no longer grace. Whether we labour in the vineyard for one hour or twelve is not ultimately decisive. God gives salvation as an unmerited free gift, and not, as Pelagius would have, something we can achieve ourselves. fr.geoffreyplant

Well, this is good news. Many must be leaving for the mass of the ages. As Jesus said, “The wheat will be gathered into barns”. Perhaps there was no Aramaic word for school auditoriums and church basements. But we are indeed being gathered, away from the flames which are consuming the Synodal church.
