  • Today is July 14, Bastille Day the anniversary of the start of the French Revolution. I feel it is appropriate for us to keep in mind the souls of the royalists who lost their lives in the Revolution, as well as the reversion of that once great Catholic nation France, during our prayers today.

  • It is astonishing that they celebrate this day, like it's some great event.  It should be a day of mourning.
    Readers: Please IGNORE all my postings here. I was a recent convert and fell into errors, even heresy for which hopefully my ignorance excuses. These include rejecting the "rhythm method," rejecting the idea of "implicit faith," and being brieflfy quasi-Jansenist. I also posted occasions of sins and links to occasions of sin, not understanding the concept much at the time, so do not follow my links.

  • We live in a world where the wholesale slaughter of children is celebrated as a right, my generation (at leat here in Newfoundland) likes Stalin and finds his crimes forgivable... or necessary. The deaths of 5 000 000 Frenchmen and women was for freedom and liberty and we must idolise it... but the Inquisition which killed 6000 in a course of 500 years; murder!

    The fact that they celebrate Bastille Day is even more reason to pray for the conversion of France!

  • Let us not forget to pray to St. Joan of Arc, the Celestial Patroness of France, for this intention as well.

    Fun Fact

    Today is also the 441st anniversary of the promulgation of the celebrated Bull of Pope St. Pius V, Quo primum tempore.

    Hmm, is it a "coincidence" that these anniversaries coincide...?  :reporter:

    Any theories...?
    Please ignore all that I have written regarding sedevacantism.

    It does not surprise me. None is so vicious as the libertarian child of the revolution. Their false 'freedom' and 'liberty' were but coverwords for conspiring against throne and altar. Now whole nations are enslaved as cattle to the 'freedoms' of the secret sects.

    May St. Joan of Arc pray for us all.
