Despite Fake News - Spanish Priest Acquitted

Great news! I am so happy for Fr. Ballester and the others. They should certainly have a right to protest the incursion of muslim law and regulations in their country, by non-citizens and citizens alike. Spain fought for centuries to oust them from the country. If not for Spain, the rest of us would likely be under sharia law today! God bless Fr. Ballester and the others!

Public Prayer, Fasting and Online Protest Against Crackdown of a Florishing Roman Mass Apostolate

If you will do a bit of research, you will see that the conditions set by Rome at that time were that each priest would concelebrate the NO mass yearly with the diocesan bishop. I was the coordinator of a rather large SSPX mission chapel at that time and we were worried that the SSPX would not be able to continue. We lost a few priests and some laity, but fortunately, many of the faithful in our area continued their support. I am so grateful for those priests and laity that continued to support the SSPX.

Public Prayer, Fasting and Online Protest Against Crackdown of a Florishing Roman Mass Apostolate

At the time the FSSP separated from the SSPX, one of the rules they were required to accept was participating in the concelebrated Chrism Mass each year. I don't know if new ordinands have to agree with that, although it was part of their agreement.

Recent Survey Finds Half of Roman Rite Faithful Are Under 45

Why should they be attached to felt banners and the tacky music of those dreadful years? I've been a 'Traddy' for decades and have never missed the 'springtime'. Thanks for this post!

Arlington Nuns "Dismissed from Religious Life"

The information I have is that, when the bishop met her, he waited for her return to her convent from a day surgery. If I am wrong, I apologize. Still, I believe the 'phone incident' should also be assessed as to it's timing. She says she 'didn't know why she said what she did'. If she had returned from a medical treatment just before that phone call, her remarks should not be taken seriously. And the same would be true if she was taking medications such as benzodiazepines, which are notorious for their undesired affects, which can last for days. If she had no medication in the days prior to the bishop's visit, or during and after her medical treatments, that information shold be sought.

Arlington Nuns "Dismissed from Religious Life"

As a RN who has worked with a lot of people after anesthesia, I can tell you that the superior's comments to the bishop, when he met her as she arrived at the convent after day surgery, could not be presented in a court of law. If her supposed phone conversation happened at a similar framework, the same would be true. I have seen anesthesia turn the kindest people into monsters, and also seen the opposite. That is why they must have signed consent that they will not drive or sign any legal paperwork for 24 hours. And I have witnesed the effect lasting as many as 3 days. I believe this information should have been used by the legal team, because it could have exonerated the superior of legal guilt, if any.

Attack on Lebanon: Two Priests Missing, a Third Injured

I honestly cannot understand it. It is similatr to the book
Animal Farm, I guess. Some animals are more equal than others. And it is terribly sad.

Second Part: Mel Gibson to Begin Filming in Malta in 2025

That was a rude remark. Is your life straightened out? Remember that mote thing our Lord mentioned? And just how close to Gibson are you, to know where his life needs 'straightening'? My apology if you are his 'bestie' and know all of the details.

Cardinal Müller: "There Is No Doubt That Francis Is a Legitimate Pope" - So?

What need have we of Rome, or the cardinals, or the Church for that matter? The commenters here on Gloria.TV.com have settled it for us. Now we can rest comfortably tonight.

La Croix: No Document in Preparation against the Roman Mass

Sean. Give it up. Do you not realize that you are not 'converting' people here? If they come to Gloria.tv, they have already found a position. And you make people think you are a troll, or that your 'group' is just nuts. Maybe take a little break.

No Mass! Vatican Treats Melbourne Archbishop "Like a Flunky"

Sean, many of us who have been helped by the SSPX for decades are, as you might guess, adults. Do you think that your random 'facts' will make a difference for your average attendee? And if the SSPX priests did all, abruptly, go 'N.O.', I for one would not be heading to a resistance group. Why not slow down your prognostication and let people use their own minds and souls to discern their choices.

Vatican Reverses Dismissal of Mother Gerlach

It is a very large and beautiful piece of property that, I believe, belongs to the sisters. The diocese would lose all hope if the sisters decided to break with them and ask to be accepted by a traditional order.

Rev. John Hunwicke RIP - A Victim of Prefect Arthur Roche?

Oh, please Eva. Replay more of his interviews if you have some. He became a dear friend when I met him in 2015 and I will seriously miss him. Of course I pray that he will RIP.

Cardinal about the West: “We Wish Them All the Best in their Disappearance!”

We are not obliged to hold to private revelations, and there have been many. We must continue to pray that God will relieve us of this frightful papacy while there are still Catholics in the world.
