The False Prophet: Talk 2  This is from my Rumble channel.

This is the late Fr. John O'Connor, OP (Not to be confused with the traditional Fr. O'Connor, OP, who is still living in his early 90's).  Fr. O'Connor, ordained in 1955, became traditional in 1991.  I remember when this happened; I had just become a traditional Catholic myself, and I remember fellow Catholics saying, "Have you heard about the Dominican priest who was thrown out of his order for revealing the ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ scandal?"

The beginning, Fr. O"Connor talks about the Dominican Dean of Students who wrote a letter in 1952, complaining of ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖity in the seminaries...He tells of the how he petitioned Rome about the ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ crisis in the 1980's and nothing was done.  He also calls out Veronica Leucken and the Bayside visions. 

16:00  mark:  He quotes St. Vincent Ferrer, "The majority of the Catholic bishops will adhere to the antichrist"
23:00  mark:  He quotes St. Francis Assisi, "There will be an antipope...false consistory"

  • My family has a few Fr. O'Connor VHS tapes they purchased in the late 90's they also have a few cassette tapes from Vin Lewis too, my father was even corresponding with Vin back in the late 90's & early 2000's & I remember when Vin's trailer was destroyed in a fire, so sad. I checked out your Rumble & I was hoping you had The ѕуηαgσgυє of Satan from Fr. O'Connor; do you have that video?

  • I have some Vin Lewis stuff on my Rumble, educational as well as debates.  I have some more Fr. O stuff that I am putting up as well.   I think Vin died a year or two ago.  I used to listen to Vin back in the cassette tape days.  He was probably the best at destroying Protestants.

  • Oh wow, he did pass away :pray:  he had Parkinson's disease. Thanks for letting me know & yes, he was the best at destroying the prots. I always have his voice in my head saying "Mr. Protestan desires to go to heaven..."  My father is pretty good too, I've watched him get into debates with prots & they actually get so angry & possessed, some even punch desks & walls.

    I don't remember Vin Lewis, but I remember Fr. O'Connor, he was an excellent speaker.

  • His church, St. Columba, where he was buried, is full-on NO: St Columba.  That is a shame.  He was so good at debate and principles, but he always seemed to be sucked in by the NO scene.

  • I remember Fr. O'Connor from several St. Joseph Forum conferences at South Bend, Indiana, in the 1990s.

    He has an captivating talk on the lyrics to Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin.

    Do you happen to have a link to that talk, Elwin? I think I've listened to it before but it's been years.
    If only it were all so simple! If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?

    If you can find "Hell's war against our children" I'm pretty sure that's where he talks about it.

  • Some “Catholic” apologist! You can’t make this stuff up! His “partner”!  :facepalm:

    Makes me reassess how many NO adherents truly profess the True Faith..

    Years ago I remember John Daly and John Lane said that they destroyed him in an informal sedevacantist debate.

    So as not to derail too much, I did enjoy Fr. O’Connor’s tapes.



    Vin Lewis’ obituary:

    Vincent Philip Lewis, 76 years old, died on Easter Monday, April 10, 2023, at home with his partner, Lynn Cappa, his sister, JoAnn Cali and her husband, Michael, after a heroic battle with Parkinson’s disease.

    Son of Helen and Vincent Lewis, he grew up in NE Bronx, NY. As a young child he had a great passion for the teachings of the Catholic Church. He had a great devotion to God and to evangelizing. He founded ARM, All Roads Ministry and wrote on many religious subjects and teaching materials. Vincent was a guest lecturer and a nationally recognized panelist. He was on the Bob Grant Radio show more than 40 times and appeared on the Sally Jesse Raffaele TV show several times.

    He always had a book handy. He remembered just about everything he ever read and thus developed a brilliant mind which took him through school on scholarships. He received a BS from Manhattan College, an MBA from LIU. He was our own personal Google before there was Google. All his nieces and nephews had to do was ask him a question … no need for the library or an encyclopedia… Vin knew the answer. He taught as an adjunct professor at Marist College and at Greenhaven Prison to help rehabilitate and prepare inmates for employment.

    At Manhattan College he joined Army ROTC, graduated as an officer, and was sent to Vietnam. There he had a great affection for the mountain guard people. He would ask for schoolbooks and vegetable seeds to help these people through education and farming. After his time in Vietnam, he became a New York State Trooper. He was back in a position of helping people.

    His great love of reading would lead to writing. He wrote children’s books, sci fi, essays and plays. Oscar Wilde and Mark Twain were among his favorite authors.
    As a young adult he discovered team sports: played football for Manhattan College, later joined an ice hockey team where he played into such an advance age, they named the tournament after him. He played racquet ball several times a week for many years.

    He loved dogs and would name them after the Saint of the day. He had the patience and ability to teach them tricks which they both seemed to enjoy. They were his “children”.

    He met the love of his life, Lynn, who enhanced Vinnie’s life with a ready-made family of two Daughters, who further grew the family to include husbands and children.
    Vinnie will be missed by friends and family. As his 7-year-old great, great niece Kate said, “He’s comfy now”.

    Survived by his beloved partner, Lynn Cappa, Daughters, Stephanie Cappa James (Josh), Heather Cappa Taylor (Bobby), granddaughters Kennedy, Madison and Madeline. Sister JoAnn Lewis Cali (Michael), Niece Michelle Cali Sullivan (Joe), Nephews Joseph Cali (Linda), Dean (Lisa), great and great-great nieces and nephews, and 99-year-old Aunt Carmela, and numerous cousins.

    Calling hours will be held from 4 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, April 13 at the McHoul Funeral Home, Inc., 895 Route 82, Hopewell Junction, NY. A Mass of Christian Burial will be offered at 10 a.m. on Friday, April 14 at St. Columba Church, 835 Route 82, Hopewell Junction, NY. Interment will follow at Rose Hills Memorial Park, 101 Mill Street, Putnam Valley, NY.

    In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Wounded Warrior Project or the charity of your choice.
    For what doth it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and suffer the loss of his own soul? Or what exchange shall a man give for his soul?
