To Banish the TLM to the Catacombs

By |2021-10-05T04:03:41+00:00October 7th, 2021|Theology|

Recently, I heard a middle-aged exorcist give a talk about how all the elderly exorcists in the world agree that something happened in 1963 that tanked the power of the Church in exorcisms.  The middle-aged exorcist did not say what this event was.  I asked his friend, and his friend suspected it was this event that happened in 1963, reported even [barely] by Wikipedia:  "Windswept House describes a satanic ritual – the enthronement of Lucifer – taking place at Saint-Paul's Chapel inside Vatican City, on June 29, 1963. The book gives a depiction of high-ranking churchmen, cardinals, archbishops and prelatees of the Roman curia, taking oaths signed with their own [...]

A Tale of Two Cities

By |2021-09-02T16:48:17+00:00September 2nd, 2021|Theology|

"One could say that the two Masses have built two cities: the Mass of All Times has built a Christian city; the New Mass seeks to build a humanist and secular city."—Fr. Pagliarani Earlier this week I took an RV retreat in Utah.  One of the things I listened to was Steve Cunningham's "Utah" episode on Sensus Fidelium on his new series, "How Catholicism Came to the United States."  Utah saw the dawn of the Catholic faith with two Franciscan priests (both named Fr. Francisco and both from Spain) who were here before the Mormons, fighting deserts and storms with little food, little provisions, little clothes and little hope of [...]

Mass of the Ages Documentary (Part 1 of 3)

I was honored to play a small part in this documentary on the resurgence of the Traditional Latin Mass in the United States.  In part one, you can hear me praying the prayers at the foot of the altar (Psalm 42) with B-roll overlays of beautiful Churches (and a quick glimpse into my hermitage at minute 10.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdbwNMYKhw0

How To Use a Layman’s Missal at the TLM

By |2021-07-21T19:43:43+00:00July 14th, 2021|Theology|

If you are new to the TLM, you will hopefully find this blog post very helpful. In late 2017, I taught a class at the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Jacksonville, FL on how to use the layman's missal while attending the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM.)  People new to the TLM needed some help thumbing through their ribbons in their layman's missal.  Now, because of how many people came to the TLM last year, my friend recently suggested this that I do a re-post of  my five classes: TLM Class 1 TLM Class 2 TLM Class 3 TLM Class 4 TLM Class 5 Also, St. Francis De Sales wrote [...]

How Humble Are Traditionalists?

By |2021-06-29T13:00:44+00:00June 29th, 2021|Theology|

For I delivered unto you first of all, which I also received: how that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures: And that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day, according to the scriptures: And that He was seen by Cephas; and after that by the eleven.—1 Cor 15:3-5 DRB. The Apostle Paul is writing here that what he delivered over to the early Christians is exactly what he first received (tradidi enim vobis in primis quod et accepi.) And this tradition was not just "small-t tradition," but "Big-T Tradition."  In other words, St. Paul delivered over Divine Revelation to others just as it [...]
