"Well, 'either one gives up the scapular or they give up immodesty'. The point is they cannot coexist."
By Mary's Secretary In my book The Practice of the Presence of Mary: To Live and Die with Mary , I dedicated Part II to Our Lady of Mount Carmel and Her scapular (fitting as Her feast is approaching), and I specifically mentioned how the scapular and spaghetti straps DO NOT go together. What I mean by that is I have noticed that those in the Church who DO NOT follow the Catholic dress code typically aren’t the ones wearing the scapular. I went on to say that modesty and the scapular go together and if you ever were immodest in dress, the scapular, being Our Lady’s sacramental that it is, gives one the grace to BECOME modest. I can attest to this in my own life. Only after I was enrolled in the scapular did I begin, little by little, become modest. It’s a process. Kind of like the rosary quote, “one either gives up the sin or they give up the rosary.” Well, “either one gives up the scapular or they give up immodesty”. The point is they cannot coexist. In fact...

"There is only one legitimate pope, but two living successors of St. Peter. There is an expanded ministry with an active member and a contemplative member."
Now, if there is a legitimate pope, then who will be the other? And in an interview with Corriere della Sera (an Italian newspaper), Benedict XVI himself, analyzing this unusual presence of two men in white in Rome, said:
"There are not two Popes. The Pope is one."
So who is the de facto Pope?
If there is no presence of the logos in these analyses, in order to proceed validly in these connectives, a true and just conclusion will not be reached.
