Above top left is my friend, Msgr. Philip J. Reilly, a priest of the diocese of Brooklyn who has saved tens of thousands of babies from abortion. Above top right is a man who he helped convert, Dr. Bernard Nathanson MD who killed 75,000 babies before being baptized a Catholic. The good news of the blog post will eventually get to these two men. But first, I want to admit that I was going to write a blog post on these two men. The top left (second set of pictures) is Nazi doctor, Josef Mengele. Wikipedia says of him that he was "known as the Angel of Death (German: Todesengel), [...]
Mt 13:44-52 https://youtu.be/_HMF8joHtV4
Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came up to Him with her sons, and kneeling before Him she asked Him for something. And He said to her, “What do you want?” She said to Him, “Say that these two sons of mine are to sit, one at Your right hand and one at Your left, in Your kingdom.” Jesus answered, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am to drink?” They said to him, “We are able.” He said to them, “You will drink My cup, but to sit at My right hand and at My left is [...]
Even though you can already see horizontalism, communitarianism and ecumenism creeping into the vocabulary of a modern Pope in 1961, it's interesting that Pope John XXIII insisted that the Catholic Church was "vibrant with vitality" just before convoking his council in 1962: Then, if we turn our attention to the Church, we see that it has not remained a lifeless spectator in the face of these events, but has followed step by step the evolution of peoples, scientific progress, and social revolution. It has opposed decisively the materialistic ideologies which deny faith. Lastly, it has witnessed the rise and growth of the immense energies of the apostolate of prayer, [...]
"Theology and Current Events" (TCE) #30 considers the question: How long does it take a leftist to brainwash a kid from a family on the right? The answer is found in James Clavell’s classic short tale titled, “The Children’s Story.” https://youtu.be/lug_UK8Jcxw
There's a lot of talk of bishops being the "spiritual fathers" to their priests. I like that idea a lot, but let's see if it's true. In 1997 in Connecticut, there was a priestly scandal in Bridgeport that was brought to light several years before the "summer of shame" in the nearly-neighboring Archdiocese of Boston. The Hartfort Courant ran the story of an accused priest titled The Priest as Independent Contractor and I'll include the first 135 words here: More should be expected from a man of the cloth than Bridgeport Roman Catholic Bishop Edward M. Egan delivered earlier this month at a federal trial in New Haven. Bishop [...]

We traditionalists often use the term "Remnant Church" to refer to other traditionalist Catholics. Similarly, we may use terms against the modernists like "parallel church" or "false church" or "eclipsed church" or "counterfeit church." Of course, we all know that at the end of the day, that there can be only one Church, for Christ can have only one spouse, the Catholic Church: "Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the Church and gave Himself up for her, that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, so that he might present the Church to Himself in splendor."—Eph 5:25-27a. Archbishop Viganò uses [...]
