  • One more instance of shifting the Overton window, with the wording of the official statement including a sprinkle of confusion for plausible deniability. (Compare too, a few days ago Tucho claiming that "single mothers" merit Communion just like everyone else.)

    Deflect the battle down to the local level where Fr. Nice can bicker with Mrs. Orans over whether Brad and Bruce can wear white when they show up for that "blessing". One more tactic to purge out of the parish any families still on the fence about Tradition.

    Yes, agreed. And then there's the problem of what will happen if a priest or bishop refuses to "bless" a sodomite relationship. It's likely that Francis will remove him. It'll mean more cancelled priests and bishops.
    "It is licit to resist a Sovereign Pontiff who is trying to destroy the Church. I say it is licit to resist him in not following his orders and in preventing the execution of his will. It is not licit to Judge him, to punish him, or to depose him, for these are acts proper to a superior."

  • Well I foolishly ventured out into social media today, which I rarely do, to see what the golden horde is saying about this.  The general consensus is that the "Catholic Taliban" have not read the docuмent and therefore don't understand.  How can one bless sodomy?

    Thank goodness most of these presbyters that will impart these blessings are not real priests.  So at least there won't be as many sacrileges committed.

    Since they are not real priests, then it's of no use in worrying or being concerned about anything that goes on in the conciliar church. Might as well delete this thread.

  • SSPX needs to take down the un puppet’s picture from their chapels. 

    It shows that the sspx can not discern from what is right from wrong by gradually joining the NO. 

    Do we choose obedience to God or the devil?   Many Catholics choose evil instead of good.  The new evangelization was not to evangelize.  

    In regards to Archbishop Lefebvre, he did his best to follow God instead of man.

    Yes, that seems to be the plan.

  • Can it be asked, but what if a gαy couple approaches Trad clergy in union with Francis for a "blessing".  Is the priest in schism with the Pope?

    Fiducia supplicans refrains from specifying what the form of the "blessing" should be, only that it be simple and "pastoral" in its intent, directed toward the genuine good of souls.... :confused: :smirk: ::)

    Thus, any priest who finds himself faced with such a request can make use of a few choice verses from one of the Imprecatory Psalms and be done with it. 
    A fitting fix, no? :incense:
    Let nothing disturb you, let nothing frighten you, all things pass away: God never changes. Patience obtains all things. He who has God finds he lacks nothing; God alone suffices. - St. Teresa of Jesus

  • “Francis invites 120 transgenders for lunch

    On Sunday, November 19, 2023, Pope Francis commemorated the “World Day of the Poor” with more than 1,000 guests whom he invited to the Paul VI Hall in the Vatican. He offered his guests food catered and served by Hilton.

    Among the invitees were about 120 transgender “women” who "work" as prostitutes at the beach city of Torvaianica, 20 miles from Rome on the Mediterranean West Coast of Italy.

    He placed two of these prostitutes as guests of honor at his table, occupying the center of the table across from his place. Above, we see the Pope speaking with great attention to his two transgender guests, who are wearing magenta and gray blouses.

    It is another landmark in Francis' growing promotion of ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖity in its more radical form: the professional prostitution of transgender “women.”

    If having a Vicar of Christ honoring this monstrous vice at the See of Peter will not cause God's vengeance to strike, we do not know what can.

    In the four first rows below, we see scenes from the event as well as the names of the two “women” at the Pope's table.

    In the fifth row, one of those prostitutes speaks to a AP reporter. In the sixth and seventh rows we see other transgenders placed at different tables in the Hall. 

    From the eighth row to the end we see photos from a video by Patricia Thomas, a AP reporter who travelled in one of the buses with the group of transgender prostitutes from Torvaianica to the Vatican and captured some expressions of Francis’ guests before their arrival at the meal.”  Tradition in action

    The official docuмent says this blessing is not at all intended for Same-sex Marriages..So what does Rev James Martin say? 3/4 down the news clip, he says he will be happy to bless Same-sex MARRIAGES!!These modernists can't read!  :facepalm:
    La mesure de l'amour, c'est d'aimer sans mesure.
    The measure of love is to love without measure.

    Now, Pags will go out to dinner with Bergoglio, and both will have a good laugh about it all. Can we now have a personal prelature Holy Father?

  • These “couples” have zero intention of ever repenting of their sins.  Those in  mortal sin can’t be blessed period. Of course satan gives his blessings.  Same with divorced and remarried.  Mortal sin can’t be blessed.  These people need an exorcism.  If they were to go to confession, they should be corrected and refused absolution until they are sincerely sorry for their sins.  There is no justifying this at all.  Read your bibles.  People will be leaving the Catholic Church because the church hierarchy turned their backs on God.   Can you blame them? 
    Only satan blesses mortal sin. 


    Church is for the sick who want to heal and get better.  These people want to spread their sickness and send many to hell.  

    God’s marriage is one male and one female forever period.

  • It's only a matter of time before we see these “blessings” in public. The obligatory Novus Ordo applauds will accompany them.
