Why do the Leftist Thought Police want to Ban the Catholic Tridentine Mass? I think part of the reason is a demonic pride that comes from the father of pride. Please say the prayer below for them. "St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle! Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who roam about the world seeking the ruin of souls." (Pope Leo ordered this prayer said at the conclusion of Mass in 1886. (When Pope Paul VI issued the Novus Ordo of the Mass in 1968, the prayer to St. Michael and the reading of the "last gospel" at the end of the Mass were suppressed.))

Might Liberals be Afraid of the Tridentine Mass because it includes a Exorcism? In the Tridentine Mass since the 1200s, St. Michael was invoked in the Confiteor, along with the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. John the Baptizer and Saints Peter and Paul; the invocation of these saints inspired the faithful to remember the call to holiness and the sinlessness of the Church Triumphant in Heaven. For the greater part of this century, the faithful recited the prayer to St. Michael at the end of the Mass. Pope Leo XIII (d. 1903) had a prophetic vision of the coming century of sorrow and war. After celebrating Mass, the Holy Father was conferring with his cardinals. Suddenly, he fell to the floor. The cardinals immediately called for a doctor. No pulse was detected, and the Holy Father was feared dead. Just as suddenly, Pope Leo awoke and said, "What a horrible picture I was permitted to see!" In this vision, God gave Satan the choice of one century in which to do his worst work against th...

The Return of the Tridentine Mass 7-7-07 MOTU PROPRIO "SUMMORUM PONTIFICUM" of Pope Benedict XVI, concerning the use of the Roman liturgy prior to the reform of 1970. "Up to our own times, it has been the constant concern of supreme pontiffs to ensure that the Church of Christ offers a worthy ritual to the Divine Majesty, 'to the praise and glory of His name,' and 'to the benefit of all His Holy Church.' "Since time immemorial it has been necessary - as it is also for the future - to maintain the principle according to which 'each particular Church must concur with the universal Church, not only as regards the doctrine of the faith and the sacramental signs, but also as regards the usages universally accepted by uninterrupted apostolic tradition, which must be observed not only to avoid errors but also to transmit the integrity of the faith, because the Church's law of prayer corresponds to her law of faith.' (1) "Among the pontiffs ...

Nothing new here. Just a friend of Jesse Jackson who may be pro-abortion and pro-gay marriage threatens to kill a gun store owner and lawmakers. The guy is a priest who "shouted to an unruly Operation PUSH crowd that they should drag the owner of the legally constituted gun shop out of his store 'like a rat' and then 'snuff' him as well as 'snuffing' lawmakers who vote against gun control. By the way the local newspaper refused to report the murder threat. I quess if one is for a pro-abortion and pro-gay marriage candidate, newspapers don't consider 'snuffing'as a death threat. Why Is Fr. Pfleger Backing Obama? A story in Monday's Chicago Tribune says Fr. Michael Pfleger, who has been pastor of St. Sabina Church on the South Side for 25 years, will remain at the helm there. The last time he was told that he was being reassigned, he insisted that he stay, and stay he did. Indefinitely. The Tribune story also says that Fr. Pfleger is backing ...

Someone didn't like the last post I did. (I finally got a computer expert to get my computer going again.) So I thought I'd post part of the article and the whole of the Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger THEOLOGICAL COMMENTARY to the third part of the Secret of Fatima. Fred We need to remember another time when prayer and sacrifice were needed to stop a great evil. The time of Russian Communism. Pope Benedict had much to say while still a cardinal about how prayer saved Pope John Paul II and the world from the evil regime of Marxism. He said that God through the Mother of Jesus saved John Paul from the 13 May 1981 assassins’ bullet and countries from “annihilation’ and the Church from “persecution.” Pope Benedict said “[I]n the end prayer is more powerful than bullets and faith more powerful than armies,” Pope Benedict said: "I would like finally to mention another key expression of the 'secret' which has become justly famous: 'my Immaculate Heart will triumph'. Wh...

-Updated September 11, 2017- This post was orginally written at the end of the second Bush presidency who I called a crazy king who wanted to destroy his civilization. In this new post, I replaced Bush with Pope Francis and the U.S. bishops. They are the new crazy kings who are insanely willing to destroy their civilization. I, back then, called for prayer and sacrifice because I saw a regime coming that wanted to destroy Christianity in our country. We did pray and offer sarcifice and the Obama/Clinton regime ended. Thanks be to God! Now we need to pray and offer sarcifice so the abortion/homosexual regimes that would destroy Christanity, which Pope Francis and the U.S. bishops appear to be trying to bring back into power, are defeated. We also need to pray for a Pope and bishops who want to reestablish, unequivocally, a Christian civilization. ------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a hard time for parents. I see the United Sta...
