Once again Ann Barnhardt cuts through all the crap and gets down to the truth of the matter! She is a "gem among gems" to use a Peanuts reference. I was downcast that the Vatican's former Holy Office was condemning the title Co-Redemptrix for Our Lady when I realized that bad faith actors have NO RIGHT TO MAKE JUDGEMENTS ON DOCTRINE!! I don't know why this action so rattled me - my own past experience in seminary demonstrated the HATRED modernists have towards the Mother of God! It was so bad I got in trouble for praying the Rosary with fellow seminarians!!

Prayer of Consecration to Our Lady "O my Lady, O my Mother, I offer myself entirely to You And, as proof of my devotion to You, I consecrate to You this day My eyes, my ears, my mouth, My heart and my whole being. And because I am thus entirely Yours, O incomparable Mother, Keep me and defend me As Your own possession and property. Amen."
The Substack.com account Pelican Plus will fall apart before long. It's a combination of several other Substack accounts. One likes the Luminous Mysteries, another wants the Theology of the Body. One will approve of Newman as a Doctor of the Church, another won't. One will approve of the New Catechism, another won't. This is going to be a failure... - except there is lots of many involved keeping it togeter.
Seems reminiscent of Church Militant/ Real Catholic TV under (Gary) Michael Voris. He too bashed other conservative Catholic media outlets as "sell outs' and holding up his operation as THE only trustworthy source for courageous Catholic reportage. He even aspired to take on other conservative news outlets such as the Daily Wire. Everyone knows how THAT turned out! What hubris!
St. Louis-Marie de Monfort: "An infallible and unmistakable sign by which we can distinguish a heretic, a man of false doctrine, an enemy of God, from one of God's true friends is that the heretic ... endeavours by word and example, openly or insidiously – sometimes under specious pretexts – to belittle the love and veneration shown to her."
On 4 November, softporn author Tucho Fernández, who happens to be the Prefect for the Doctrine of the Faith of Leo XIV, announced an upcoming document on monogamy. The working title is: "We Two: In Praise of Monogamy. Doctrinal note on the value of matrimony, exclusive communion and reciprocal belonging." Journalist Delia Gallagher added that the document had been prompted by African bishops who allegedly wanted to defend monogamy. The X.com account Rorate Caeli commented: "With THIS prefect, it's terrifying. It will be a document in praise of monogamy, but with some kind of loophole on polygamy. That will be its purpose." #newsMohnduxuhh
"Here we see how the heretics reveal their anti-Marian nature, linked to their anti-Catholic nature, because Mary Most Holy is Mother and Queen of the Church precisely by virtue of her co-Passion and co-Redemption. Satan knows full well that his final defeat will be sealed by She who will crush—with her virginal heel—his rebellious head" - The Catholic Shepherd
Soft porn author Tucho Cardinal Fernández rejected on Tuesday in a doctrinal note the Marian title of “Co-Redemptrix” but also of “Mediatrix of all Graces”. The note is entitled “Mater Populi Fidelis” (Mother of the Faithful People). The reason given is this: "This title risks obscuring Christ’s unique salvific mediation and can therefore create confusion and an imbalance in the harmony of the truths of the Christian faith". Sixty years after Vatican II, endless Vatican word salad and the Synod on Synodality, the most ironic and iconic phrase in Tucho’s document is this: "When an expression requires repeated explanations to prevent it from straying from its correct meaning, it does not serve the faith of the People of God and becomes unhelpful." The Co-redemption and Mediatrix theology has been taught for centuries. In 1908 the Vatican’s Congregation of Rites expressed the wish that -- “the devotion of the Sorrowful Mother may increase and the piety of the faithful and their …More
"This may seem incomprehensible to modern people; indeed, it may even anger them. But it is only by making sacrifices and beginning to live for others that we become fully human. The best environment for this is the family."
Dem modernen Menschen mag dies unverständlich erscheinen, ja, er wird verärgert sein. Aber erst, indem wir Opfer bringen und anfangen, für andere zu leben, werden wir ganz Mensch. Die beste Voraussetzung hierfür ist die Familie.
