Fighting Errors in the Modern World / Re: A question the Catholic Church needs to address

Quote from: cassini on Today at 01:02:53 PM
‘All that exists outside God was, in its whole substance, produced
out of nothing by God. (De fide.) (Vatican Council I, 1870)

‘Substance,’ we know from classic philosophy means, ‘what something is,’ all finished, and not what something is becoming or can become as evolution claims. But since the 1820 volte-face, even this supernatural dogma had to be modernised.
How does substance relate to matter and form? How does matter and form differ when comparing large and small things, composed and elemental?

That would be a pretty extreme scenario. I kind of doubt they will go that route. Lots of people would leave and form other societies.

If this were true, and a great number of SSPX-ers understood what +ABL and the SSPX were about, the Resistance would be HUGE right now. Because the neo-SSPX has done some serious things, some real red flags, that would upset +ABL if he were still on earth. 

Unfortunately, the facts of recent history seem to disagree with your assumption here.

I also want to make an interesting observation here. Unlike Father Robinson, Father Rusak has virtually zero online presence. If you search the man up online, you’re hard pressed to even find an image of him. He hasn’t been featured on any podcasts or SSPX websites, he is the prior of a small, “backwater” SSPX priory while Fr Robison is in charge of a massive church and school. Yet Fr Rusak was ordained in the 80’s. Hmmm let’s think about why that might be?!?

I have utmost respect for Fr Rusak. Every year he drives for days at a time into the Canadian arctic to offer Masses for handfuls of people.

Catholic Living in the Modern World / Re: First communion traditions
« Last post by Miseremini on Today at 03:46:06 PM »
Back in the decades before the fall (Vat II) the May crowning of Our Blessed Mother was always done on the LAST Sunday of May.  The reason being is that May 31st is the feast of the Queenship of Mary so the crowning was the closest Sunday to the feast. 
Also (at least in my climate) Lilacs and peonies bloom, so as the song goes "from garden and woodland and hillside and vale", we gathered flowers in bloom and the aroma filling the church was heavenly.
I've always felt sad that the SSPX changed the tradition to the beginning of May when we can only bring store bought flowers.  Also a crowning is at the end of something... probably that's why Her feast is the very end of May after a month of devotions, novenas etc.

There was a procession...first the first communicants in their white dresses and veils then Our Lady's Sodality.  These were unmarried girls and young women and were considered Our Queen's ladies in waiting...all in long white gowns.  All were presumed virgins as no married women were allowed in the sodality.  Married women belonged to the Christian Mothers Society.  The president of the sodality crowned the statue.

Often the crowning was in the church, but I remember participating when the numbers warranted an altar to be built and lavishly adorned in the attached school yard. That's when the number of parishoners far exceeded the capacity of the church.

At least one year when I participated as a senior choir member, the Bishop rented the Hamilton Tiger Cats football stadium and people from all the parishes in the diocese came for Mass and a huge procession with floats and choirs and sodalities and the various church organizations with their beautiful banners, from many parishes.  Everyone brought a picnic breakfast as the fast was from midnight.

I know I have photos of the school yard event and also the stadium event.  If I can scan them I'll post them.

When Angelus Press published Fr Robinson’s book some years ago, one of our brave Canadian priests, Father Gerard Rusak, published a scathing review on the Angelus Press website. I know Father Rusak. He is an old guard SSPX priest.  Review below:

While Father Robinson excels on philosophical points in the first six chapters of his book (1 star), he accepts the unproven hypotheses of the Big Bang (with its long ages needed for evolution) and he rashly embraces heliocentrism. Meanwhile, he brushes aside those who do not agree with him using insufficient arguments (see below). His interpretation of the Bible is more in accord with a liberal interpretation of Vatican II's Dei Verbum #11 rather than with the traditional teaching of the Church on the inerrant nature of Holy Scripture. This allows him to pick and choose among facts related in the book of Genesis and elsewhere in the Bible. He also ignores the longstanding the decrees of the Church against Galileo and the unanimous teaching of the Fathers of the Church these same questions. On these last issues, his insufficient arguments have been completely refuted by a book by Robert Sungenis: "Scientific Heresies and Their Effect on the Church" (564 pages). 

I thank the Angelus Press in advance for posting this review and request them to add to their list of books the above book of Robert Sungenis so that both sides of the question may be heard. Or should they not wish to do so, to withdraw Father Robinson's book from sale from this their website.
I may add that I know other SSPX priests and faithful like myself who are shocked at the publication of this book for at least some if not all, of the above reasons.

Quote from: StrivingCatholic on Today at 12:23:25 AM
These days, I try not to brush aside anything that the Church approves under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It would be terrible if the Holy Spirit abandons the Church when she is making such important acts of discernment, we would be lost then. :(
If anything, the Popes abandoned the Holy Spirit during the second Vatican Council and did the work of men. It's a very interesting subject to study, in which you will find that the Holy Spirit was still there preserving the church, and that all of the errors of Vatican II were already condemned. Strangely the Popes did nothing after Vat II when things were getting worse in the church even after drawing a connection to the council. Have confidence and much peace. Don't let anything agitate you or take your peace. This is just another trial the church is going through like so many before, such as the Arian heresy, but this time it's more like the church is on the cross than just scourged, because we are dealing with the synthesis of all heresies. Pray the Rosary, if possible 15 mysteries per day, pray for a holy Pope, Bishops, and Priests. And get a Douay Rheims Bible with the Haydock compiled Commentary.

These sodomites are narcissists.  Most will never repent but will spread their disease of mortal sin.  

The Church is a hospital for sinners who want to be healed.  To sin no more says Jesus.
