I've looked into this apparition, and found it worthy of belief. Consonant with other approved Marian apparitions.

The only reason a bitter Trad would reject it -- Sister Sasagawa was in a Novus Ordo convent. Nevermind the fact the convent started receiving Communion on the tongue as a direct result of Sister Sasagawa and this apparition -- it bore GOOD FRUIT, as it were -- just saying -- but for some bitter Trads, anything less than fire and brimstone as punishment for attending the Novus Ordo is out of the question. No mercy, just hatred and justice.

For some bitter Trads, every single person who attends the Novus Ordo is malicious, of bad will, and in a state of Mortal sin.

There are plenty of Trad nuns.  Why does Our Lady not appear to one of them?

That way we would know it was true.

I think it is perfectly reasonable to doubt that Our Lady would appear to a novus ordo nun, if the novus ordo is "a bastard rite" that deliberately weakens the faith of Catholics (we know with human certainty it does that).

In addition the statue that is claimed to have wept miraculously at Akita is that of Our Lady of All Nations which is objectively speaking wrong on many points.  Here is one of those many points.
“THE LADY OF ALL NATIONS ARE THE LAST AND FINAL APPARITIONS OF OUR MOTHER TO THE NATIONS OF THIS WORLD.” (http://www.ladyofallnations.org)

To believe that these were "the last and final apparitions" of Mary to the world, one would have disbelieve the apparitions of Mary at Akita. Therefore, the claim that the apparitions to Ida Peerdeman are the last and final are false if Akita is true.

So Mary would either be making a statue of a false apparition weep miraculously, or, they are both false.

They cannot both be true.

Presumably He will use fire.

Or disease, or a ναccιnє created by Godless men that goes wrong, or air, or earthquakes, or famine, or the climate goes wrong and we enter a new ice age, or Islam or ƈhıną rises and oppresses the west for 500 years turning us into commie slaves, or we are invaded by aliens.

I will be changing my daily Rosary intentions to a penitential one, as Our Lady of Akita advised.

Meg-

"Well said, Incred.

I, too, will be changing my Rosary intentions to a penitential one (or rather to include a penitential one), for the reason you cited above."

How can it be a punishment GREATER than the deluge?

The Flood of Noah only left 8 people alive.

Unless the world lasts another 2000 years it would never recover to fulfill the prophecy in Revaluation, where you need to have people around for battles and other aspects.

If billion people survive the fire falling from the sky then it was not greater than the deluge.

If some random nun is going to claim such a future event then I want some proof like a clear miracle before I will believe it.  The weeping statue (of a false vision) does not do it for me.

If you are dead what does it matter what killed you?
If you are alive, what does it matter what killed 99% of humans?
All a bit academic HOW it happens.  Who cares?
