Francis, it appears, is allowing, one of his closest collaborators, Cardinal Reinhard Marx and his German bishops to continue in the porn business which is a prime destroyer of family life. Marx and the German bishop's huge porn publishing company sold pornography for over a decade. The bishops were rebuked by Pope Benedict XVI after he was informed. After the papal rebuke, the German bishops promised the porn business would be sold according to Lifesitenews.com articles on October 31 and November 23, 2011. The blog Vox Cantoris on September 18, 2015 wrote that Cardinal Marx and the German bishops were still in the same porn business and Francis did not "call them out." The blog's headline was "Why is Pope Francis blind to Germany's rich and porn producing bishops?": "We know that they cannot win, that the "gates of Hell will not prevail" but in these times we must ask, 'Where is the Pope?'" "A few years...

"St. John Vianney said that if we knew the value of the Mass, we would die of joy." ( Pieta Prayer Book, Page 27)   Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church as well as for the Triumph of the Kingdom of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary  

 On August 18, the U.S. News headline was: "If Joe Biden Wins the Election, He’ll Have Women to Thank" The news outlet reported: "A separate poll commissioned by Fox News had similar results, with Biden winning 51% of female voters and Trump getting 39%. Again, men were divided – 46% to 46% – between the two candidates. Overall, Fox has Biden ahead with 49% of the vote, compared to 42% for the president." "Should those numbers hold, the 2020 election will mark the biggest gender gap in modern history, according to data compiled by the Center for the American Woman and Politics at Rutgers University. The previous record was set in 1996 and again in 2016, when the gender gap – the difference between how many women support the winning candidate compared to the losing candidate – was 11 percentage points." "In battleground states, the story is similar, and has implications for which party will control the U.S. Senate next year as well." [...

Bishop Rene Gracida was a courageous World War II airman, ex-monk, friend of Pope John Paul II and the "Savior of EWTN" who appears to be the only real pro-life bishop in the United States. [ https://www.catholicworldrepor t.com/2016/01/11/airman-monk- priest-bishop-an-interview- with-bp-rene-henry-gracida/ ] The larger-than-life Bishop Gracida is a real life hero who makes all the other living bishops in the United States look like Lilliputian Pee Wee Hermans by comparison especially when it comes to saving the lives of the unborn babies. Catholic Monitor commenter  Fr. VF affirmed that Gracida is the only real pro-life bishop in the United States: "During the Pro-life Rescue Movement, people put their bodies between abortionists and babies. St. Thomas Aquinas and every other moral theologian teaches that one of the ways to become an accomplice to a crime is to remove an obstacle one knows is preventing the crime. Police were ordered ...

The Blessed Virgin Mary once told her faithful servant, Blessed Alain: “My Son so loves those who assist at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass that, if it were necessary, He would die for them as many times as they’ve heard Masses.” (Page 107, last paragraph of “Explication Du Saint Sacrifice Do Le Masse”, parle R. P. Martin do Cochern Friere-Mineur Capucin.)     Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church as well as for the Triumph of the Kingdom of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary

The Catholic Monitor received an email from a well-known Catholic pundit saying One Peter Five publisher Steve Skojec is going into "schism" from the Catholic Church. The email included this link: https://nonvenipacem.com/2020/09/17/would-you-rather-go-to-hell-than-have-ann-barnhardt-be-right/ If it's true that he is going into schism, might it be his "infallible" faith that Francis is definitely pope that lead to this possible decision?  Skojec, on September 20, 2019, wrote: "[A] pope universally accepted upon his election is infallibly certain. A dogmatic fact." "Francis was universally accepted. That's a dogmatic fact." [ http://catholicmonitor.blogspot.com/2019/09/skojec-franciss-validity-is-infallibly.html?m=1 ] He is claiming that it is "dogmatic fact" that Francis's papal validity "is infallibly certain," but the funny thing is that he said on Twitter on September 3, 2019 that he believes the real Va...

For each Mass we hear with devotion, Our Lord sends a saint to comfort us at death. (revelation of Christ to St. Gertrude the Great.) Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church as well as for the Triumph of the Kingdom of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary  

Pope Francis @Pontifex As many spiritual masters have taught us, heaven, earth, sea, and every creature have an iconic capacity or mystical capacity to bring us back to the Creator and to communion with creation. #SeasonOfCreation #GeneralAudience  [https://twitter.com/Pontifex/status/1306179514016452609]     Is Francis a New Age Panentheist? What is New Age Panentheism and why does it contradict Christianity? Crux reported that Francis said his Panentheistic Laudato si is the basis of his Synod on the Amazon and apparently his Christmas message: "When asked why he convened a synod on the Amazon, Francis said, 'It is the ‘child’ of Laudato si’ .'" [ https://cruxnow.com/vatican/2019/08/09/in-new-interview-pope-explains-aim-of-synod-warns-against-nationalism/ ] It is important to show that what Francis is promoting in Laudato si is not Pantheism, but Panentheism which is a major component of process theology. The Washington Post explains that his On Aug...

  Everyone knows that sexual predator ex-cardinal Theodore McCarrick is a liar. His whole life was a lie of betrayal of the most sacred vows he took and the violation of the moral tenets of the Catholic faith which he desecrated. Most people don't realize that part of this desecration of lies included lying for "gravely sinful" Democrats like Joe Biden. McCarrick protected Biden when then head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (later to be Pope Benedict XVI) wrote that bishops were not to admit to Communion politicians like "gravely sinful" Biden who supports the killing of unborn babies. McCarrick lied for politicians like Biden by ignoring the important parts of the Ratzinger letter and told bishops not to ignore the Catholic Church law.  Last year, Fr. Robert Morey denied Holy Communion to the “gravely sinful” Biden following a "2004 decree signed jointly by the bishops of Atlanta, Charleston, and Charlo...

Once, St. Teresa of Avila was overwhelmed with God’s Goodness and asked Our Lord: “How can I thank you?” Our Lord replied, “ATTEND ONE MASS.” Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church as well as for the Triumph of the Kingdom of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary  

"Pray the rosary for Francis because something appears to be wrong with the poor man if he wants to free dangerous criminals and serial predators from prison." - Catholic Monitor   Does Francis think that the death penalty is worst than what Ted Bundy did? Bundy was a serial murderer and rapist who, also, tortured the victims and even engaged in necrophilia with their bodies. In 2015, Francis gave his approval to the following quote: "To kill a murderer is a punishment incomparably worst than the crime itself." (edwardfeser.blogspot, "The curious case of Pope Francis and the 'new natural lawyers,'" June 3, 2017) If Ted Bundy had not received the death penalty and was instead given a sentence of life imprisonment, would Francis want Bundy set free? In 2014, Francis said: "A life sentence is just a death penalty in disguise." (edwardfeser.blogspot, "The curious case of Pope Francis and the"' new natural lawye...

"Some... argue that the dubia and other criticisms of Amoris Laetitia that have been made already suffice as warnings to Pope Francis, and hence that he can now be judged to be guilty of the canonical crime of heresy..." But for juridical purposes – especially for the very serious purpose of judging a Pope to be a heretic – they do not suffice. The evidence needed for a juridical judgment of such gravity has to take a form that is entirely clear and beyond dispute. A formal warning from a number of members of the College of Cardinals that is then disregarded by the Pope would constitute such evidence." "The possibility of a Pope being canonically guilty of heresy has long been admitted in the Church. It is acknowledged in the Decretals of Gratian  There is no dispute among Catholic theologians on this point – even among theologians like Bellarmine who do not think that a Pope is in fact capable of being a heretic..." "It is to be hoped that...
