Evangelium Vitae and Ivermectin
The California Catholic Conference accurately notes, "Vaccine development and production over the last several decades has often relied upon some cell lines that regrettably were originally developed from cells obtained from two fetuses that were aborted in the ‘70s and ‘80s." The California Catholic Conference also accurately notes, "The Vatican’s doctrinal office, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF), has determined that it is 'morally acceptable' for Catholics to take these vaccines against the COVID-19 Virus." However, the conclusion of the above two agencies goes against not only ancient Popes, but even Pope John Paul II in Evangelium Vitae: This moral condemnation also regards procedures that exploit living human embryos and fetuses-sometimes specifically "produced" for this purpose by in vitro fertilization-either to be used as "biological material" or as providers of organs or tissue for transplants in the treatment [...]

Lawful Authority
When there's not just a question of a stolen election but even evidence of it, we must remember that God preserves our conscience as Catholics who believe in the social reign of Christ the King. This is a prayer I heard prayed publicly at a parish last month: Blessed be God. Blessed be His Holy Name. Blessed be Jesus Christ true God and true Man. Blessed be the Name of Jesus. I believe O Jesus. That Thou are the Christ. The Son of the Living God. I proclaim my love. For the Vicar of Christ on Earth. I believe all the sacred truths Which the Holy Catholic Church Believes and teaches. I promise to give good example By the regular practice Of my faith. In honor of His Divine Name I pledge myself against perjury, Blasphemy, profanity and obscene speech. [...]

Should a Young Traditionalist Submarine Through Normal Seminary?
Should a young man who is a traditional Catholic "submarine" himself into his own diocese so as to get ordained? First, what does this question even mean? This means: "Should the young man who prefers the tradition of the Catholic Church join a Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) congregation -or- should he could join his home diocese by keeping his head down in a normie seminary so as to be ordained so that he can reach the average Catholic with the Gospel even if this means he must offer the new Mass in English (or Vietnamese or Spanish or French)? My answer is, "No, a young traditionalist should not 'submarine' through seminary so as to get ordained for a normal diocese." Before you stop reading because you think you know the answer (as either my friend or my enemy) let me write: [...]
