According to CNN, the United States is the center of opposition to Pope Francis. Let’s fact check CNN. Here is a list of the top 10 countries offering the Latin Mass. Country/Number of Venues United States 510 France 204 Italy 150 United Kingdom 126 Poland 104 Brazil 86 Germany 63 Australia 58 Canada 41 Spain 39 Total US: 510 Total for others: 871 Fact is, the US population is greater than any of the other nine. Number of souls saved matters, and that is the most striking deficiency of the modernist church. If I were to ask the

From The Daily Caller:
More allegations of plagiarism against Harvard President Claudine Gay emerged Tuesday in a complaint filed with the university…the university’s highest governing board, admitted on Dec. 12 that they had known of the plagiarism accusations since late October… The complaint lists 39 examples of plagiarism with over 40 specific instances of alleged plagiarism. Thanks for the report, Mick Farthing, freelance writer, cartoonist, graphic designer, and regular contributor for the Patriot Journal. https://patriotjournal.org/about/ What is her salary? $880,000 for a PhD in the political science of Marxism, critical race theory, and identity politics, and we are oppressing the poor Phillips Exeter grad.

Newsletter from Alcuin Reid, Prior, Catholic priest equipped to do battle, LinkedIn When Mass begins, the priest (P) and altar boys (R) pray Psalm 42 at the foot of the altar (the cross).  Finding the English words in the Latin is easy. Example: érue me...deliver me. Similar to extricate. Usage: deliver and extricate perform the same action: if you are extricated from your enemies, you are delivered from them.
The pomegranate is a symbol of resurrection and life everlasting, often found on devotional statues and in paintings of the Virgin and Child.

Saint Mary's College, Notre Dame, Indiana, is backtracking on its decision to allow men who identify as transgender women to enroll in the formerly all-female, Catholic institution... She [President Katie Conboy] wrote: “Some worried that this was much more than a policy decision: they felt it was a dilution of our mission or even a threat to our Catholic identity. Moreover, we clearly underestimated our community’s genuine desire to be engaged in the process of shaping a policy of such significance. As this last month unfolded, we lost people’s trust and unintentionally created division where we had hoped for unity. For this, we are deeply sorry.” By Mary Margaret Olohan, senior reporter for The Daily Signal. She previously reported for The Daily Caller and The Daily Wire. https://www.dailysignal.com/2023/12/21/catholic-all-girls-college-reverses-trans-policy-after-backlash/?utm_source=TDS_Email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=MorningBell transcribed for piano levels based on my judgment The first part is Level 9, advanced.

No one votes for a man who speaks Dementianese. They vote for his policies, and then others are afraid that voting for anyone other than a Democrat will end their life of dependency, or good souls are seized by false compassion, or some people are flagellated by the enslaver’s flagrant misuse of power and submit. Elections mislead us. The Catholic Discord group I joined is made up of modern-day male monarchists who acknowledge Christ as King. The group does not have an age limit, and they let me in.   One of my best decisions occurred on August 30, 2020, when I appeared at the doorstep of St. Stephen the First Martyr Catholic Church Sacramento (FSSP). Fifty years in the alternative church were left behind. You are welcome to join me any Sunday at 6PM. I serve as an usher, and you will find me in the vestibule before Mass begins. We have multiple copies of the Red Book, which is the Latin Mass in its simplified form with Latin and English on each page. The Epistle and Gospel change every day and are not in the Red Book, but on Sunday they are read in Latin from the altar and then in English from the pulpit. What is a maniple, and why do priests wear it? A maniple is a short length of cloth that is looped over the left arm of the priest. As a piece of clothing, the maniple goes all the way back to ancient Rome. It was simply a handkerchief used either to wipe away perspiration or as a decorative piece—uses that the handkerchief still serves today. As a liturgical vestment, the maniple goes back to at least the 6th century, with its original purpose possibly being to simply wipe the face during Mass. It bears profound spiritual meaning. Various interpretations of it developed over time, eventually coalescing into the meaning we glean if we read the beautiful prayer that the priest prays while putting it on, referencing Psalm 125: Merear, Domine, portare manipulum fletus et doloris; ut cum exsultatione recipiam mercedem laboris. May I deserve, O Lord, to bear the maniple of weeping and sorrow in order that I may joyfully reap the reward of my labors. The maniple illustrates the priest’s role as a laborer in Christ’s vineyard, the Holy Mass being his chief work. It’s a life that entails a great deal of blood, sweat, toil, and tears, but which has as its reward the salvation of eternal souls. For us laymen, the maniple is an encouragement to do our own appointed work with fortitude and hope, and a reminder that God’s grace, given in the Holy Mass and the Sacraments through the hands of the priest, will always enliven and sustain us.

Domine, quinque talenta tradidisti mihi:
ecce alia quinque superlucratus sum. 20 …Lord, thou didst deliver to me five talents, behold I have gained other five over and above. Euge serve fidelis quia in pauca Fuisti Fidelis, supra multa te constituam, intra in gaudium Domini tui. 21 …Well done, good and faithful servant, because thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will place thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. When I worked at the IRS in 2000 and received a call from a taxpayer with my last name, I had to ask my manager if I could talk to the taxpayer. If I ever looked at a taxpayer’s return for no reason, I would have been fired. If I ever looked at the tax return of anyone related to me, a friend, a neighbor, or a famous person, I would have been fired. I did not violate the law on any of approximately 5,000 calls received. Every one of the calls could have been monitored (listening to what I said, not the taxpayer), and some were. 4th Amendment, US Constitution The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. NSA is National Security Agency. It occurs the night before the Feast of St. Nicholas (Catholic Santa), a night when people dress up as the devil Krampus and chase naughty children through the streets. Krampus scolds them and gives bundles of 'ruten', a cluster of twigs, so they don't forget Krampus after he leaves (Central and Eastern Alpine regions). Alexander the Demon Boy sang his own lyrics and made me laugh. The hierarchy is trying to get rid of these boys. We are rich in art, even if it's stuffed in a shoebox.
Listen to a report on Obama's production company. Yes, now he and his wife make movies. The claim is that their film, Leave the World Behind, is racist. Hear the language. "I'm asking you to remember that if the world should fall apart, trust should not be doled out easily to anyone, especially white people." https://www.prageru.com/video/obamas-anti-white-film-kid-rock-targets-taylor-swift-fl-investigates?utm_source=Iterable&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=campaign_8552236 Made wealthy by politics (not alone), the Obamas are unqualified moviemakers, unabashed separatists, and disgusting elitists. They spread hate. Look at this report on their wealth and that of other presidents, plus Al Gore, the vaunted Green King. You will discover no Catholic humility and self-sacrifice among the rapacious.
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/obama-biden-other-elected-officials-120032914.html Bill sent me information about John Taylor Gatto. Bill is like John, and John is like Alexander, independent, self-educated thinkers.
I had the help of many teachers, but baptism at eight and God the Father’s making Himself known to me at 10 were pivotal. God guided my independence from then on. As far as I know, Alexander is aware of natural law. John Gatto attended public schools and a Catholic boarding school. He was New York City Teacher of the Year and New York State Teacher of the Year. He asserts the following regarding what school does to children in Dumbing Us Down:
Wikipedia helped me source Gatto’s books. Kelley, Vincent (10/25/2019). “John Taylor Gatto Challenged the Ideas Inherent in US Mass Schooling." Truthout. John Taylor Gatto, Dumbing Us Down. The Hidden Curriculum of Compulsory Schooling, New Society Publishers, 2005, p. 2–11 . The SAT is a study tool, which is its main purpose, and I will continue to use the SAT prep books in addition to others. The SAT/ACT are the only national benchmarks. There is an ad on my own website: Papist Coffee, Roasted to Order. St. Lawrence (A.D. 225-258) was roasted on a grill, age 32. He is depicted carrying a gridiron. That tickled Alexander, Horror King. His mother and Josh from St. Stephen Sacramento have read some of Alexander’s over 200 pages of screenplays. His mother tells me that she did not enroll him in a particular school for the very gifted, because the other students are too serious for him. They are the children bound for the Ivy League. What about Alexander? Where will he go? I am no longer his educator. We are collaborators, and collaboration is like gold, not something I should be paid to do.  Last time I attempted complex numbers. OMG! I told him I have to go home and rethink it all. On another occasion, he cupped his hands around my right ear and shouted, "YOU ARE AN IDIOT!" He knew it would start a laughing fit, and learning my speech habits freed him to speak his thoughts, believe me. What was the biggest influence on my language? Mandatory participation in conversation at the dinner table.

Listverse.com notes/Jesuits: They also contributed to the development of pendulum clocks, pantographs, barometers, reflecting telescopes and microscopes, and to scientific fields as various as magnetism, optics, and electricity. They observed, in some cases before anyone else, the colored bands on Jupiter’s surface, the Andromeda nebula, and Saturn’s rings. They theorized about the circulation of the blood (independently of Harvey), the theoretical possibility of flight, the way the moon effected the tides, and the wave-like nature of light. In addition, their contribution to the study of earthquakes has seismology labeled the “Jesuit science”. Critical race theory, transgenderism, transgenderism among children, sexual ideology, and sexual preference are accompanied by addiction to alcohol, illegal drugs, and/or pornography. While the last is not a true addiction, which involves withdrawals, there is a kind of withdrawal. When a person is away from pornography for a long period of time, its attraction lessens and eventually subsides. Not believable (as sometimes I wrote about a target or witness after an investigation into conduct) would be my response if someone claimed that politicians and leaders in education and religion who push these theories are not addicts.  courtesy of byjus.com
Cancelled. Francis foozled the 83-year-old bishop, 1987-2016, retired, Marajó, Brazil. Why? Azcona criticized the Pachamama and establishment of an Amazonian rite. He also spoke out against sexual predators among politicians/businesspersons in the area. In the past, good priests and bishops did not disappear into retirement or exile.
Harvard President Claudine Gay is inspired by her school’s segregated graduations for blacks, Hispanics, and LGBTQ+++++ students. More universities are doing the same, including holding separate graduations for Asian and American Indian students.
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2022/apr/18/more-universities-holding-segregated-graduation-ev/ We live in inspiring times. What was hidden before is coming into the light: how much hate thrives in select groups of leaders at universities. Obviously, one cannot be a Christian, or a good person, and have so much hate. I join with many, many other people in calling for their resignations. |
