Unfortunately I don't have or even remember the original article which showed a lot of pictures of people taking the hosts by the handfulls & putting them in purses & pockets & dipping their hands into the giant chalice.

Several months ago I thought I better get copies of this occurance as it was not well known. I finally found an article on Angelgueen.org posted Wed. Sept. 17, 2008; and also one on Traditio.com, I'm not sure of the exact date but it was around that time. Both of these are from a secular source, that is true, but the reporter was scandalized himself. This is all I could find. Nothing in the Catholic press that I know of but then, do you think that the Catholic press would publish this?

Thorn,

Thanks for directing me to the sources. I found the account on AngelQueen. I envisioned them getting the Hosts by the handsful in the Communion line. Thus, I am ever so slightly relieved that it wasn't accomplished with cooperation of the Pope and Bishops.

Also, I am not 100% convinced that it happened. The pictures are admittedly re-creations. But I do not doubt that it happened. That is where the chaotic culture of the N.O. and V-II has gotten us. It is undeniably grave sacrilege, abuse of our Lord's Body and Blood, shameful, ignorant, etc.

I am deeply grieved by what happened to the Church, primarily at the hands of Pope John XXIII and Pope Paul VI at about the time I was born. But I am unshakeably convinced that, unfortunately, that is where the line of Peter is found.

My faith tells me that our Lord has not totally forsaken us and that He will again provide the leadership we need to emerge from this era of darkness.

I know many on here do not have much appreciation for the "Motu." But I was born in 1972 in a liberal N.O. parish with no T.L.M. options within hundereds of miles, I'm certain. N.O. was the only Catholicism in my region. The only other option I was aware of was what the husband of one of the ladies in the parish did--stay home!

I am only 38 and have hoped that we would have something akin to the "Motu" in my lifetime since my pre-teen years. Now I am optimistic that we will come much further in my lifetime.

Ah! but it WAS accomplished with the pope's cooperation! Who left the hosts & chalice out on the altar & walked away for them to be savaged by the "pilgrims'? As I said, even a bad pope wouldn't have done such a thing.

Of course the line of Peter is on the throne in the Vatican. Just where do you think the Antichrist is going to sit? - in a false church??! To me this just proves that the Catholic Church is the true church. Christ did indeed say that He would not forsake us & He hasn't! The traditional Mass has always been around. We went to underground churches in the 70's & 80's. Staying & fighting in the 'occupied ' church was a useless endeavor. Your friend was wise to stay home rather than partake of false, man-centered, or worse, worship.

Having no real Pope, but an imposter, is not the same as having no church. The church will survive till the end of time but will only be a remnant. You have the deposit of faith so does it really matter that you have someone questionable on Peter's throne? Be not afraid. Christ foretold all of this.

I hate to say it but don't be too optimistic about the Motu Mass. Be very wary. Snakes are all around us.
