Believes roles have been secularized.

Bishop Mario Vaccari, head of a small diocese in Tuscany, has temporarily suspended the practice of picking godparents for baptism and a sponsor for confirmation. He expressed concern that the roles were being used for secular purposes, far removed from their profound spiritual meaning. In this episode of The Download, hosts Bradley Eli, Rodney Pelletier and David Nussman discuss what it means to be a godparent at a child's baptism or a sponsor at a child's confirmation.

Camouflage Catholics

Faithful Catholics have been so disappointed and let down so frequently by various leaders in the Church that you can understand if there is some caution being exercised with regard to the whole Obama attack on the Faith.

True .. leaders .. bishops AND others .. have banned together and raised a loud voice in protest. And this is all good – very good. But there is still the nagging question in the back of the mind based on past experience - are they gonna go all the way and do WHATEVER needs to be done to fight this attack or will they cave in?

But an even more pressing issue .. much more pressing .. is this going to be seen and seized on by the hierarchy in America as the golden moment .. the chance to begin to restore what has been torn down for nearly 50 years now – the authentic faith.

There has been so much pandering and cowardice and naïveté with regard to the secular world .. that one wonders if the leaders TRULY understand the extent of the damage .. the deep damage .. some of it irrecoverable .. done by decades of mismanagement.

#The John Henry-Westen Show: Veteran's near-death experience: a journey of faith, war, and divine intervention

Veteran Robert Bartlett shares his near-death experience and extraordinary story of faith. Raised in a multi-religious family, Robert recounts how a childhood near-death experience began a lifelong connection with God. He reveals how a divine prophecy about dying at 32 came true while serving as a sniper in Iraq, where he flatlined three times following a devastating bomb attack. Through vivid visions and encounters with evil, Robert’s faith was profoundly deepened, transforming him into a devout Catholic. Learn more about his growth and experience of mortality, divine intervention, and the life-changing power of truth.

what Dostoevski thought about the Roman Catholic Church...     (RomanCatholicism)
submitted by boekanier to RomanCatholicism 5 months ago (+4/-1)
4 comments last comment...
Dostoevsky turned even more fiercely against the Roman Catholic Church. The Pope strove for universal worldly power like the Western Roman Empire. To achieve this, he had taken up the sword and used lies, cunning, deceit, fanaticism, superstition and crime. Catholicism preached the Antichrist and was worse than atheism. In Russia, faith had only disappeared among the privileged circles, but in Europe large masses of the people had already lost their faith out of hatred for the Church. Atheism and socialism arose from the moral resistance to Catholicism. Both ideologies wanted to save man, not through Christ, but by means of violence. Jesuits were portrayed as cunning scum and deceivers.

#The John Henry-Westen Show: Challenging the Francis Papacy | Fr. Giorgio Maria Faré and the Church’s Crisis

DISCLAIMER: Translation provided for Fr. Giorgio Maria Faré’s remarks

Fr. Giorgio Maria Faré courageously challenges the legitimacy of Pope Francis, raising theological and canonical concerns about the validity of Pope Benedict XVI’s resignation. Speaking through a translator, Fr. Faré outlines contradictions in Pope Francis’ teachings and their departure from traditional Church doctrine, emphasizing the dangers of modernist influences within the hierarchy. Despite the threat of excommunication, Fr. Faré calls on Catholics to defend truth and tradition, offering a message of hope, prayer, and action for those seeking to preserve the unity and authenticity of the Church.

#The John Henry-Westen Show: Was the rise of communism foretold in Blessed Emmerich's vision of Satan 'unchained'?

On this episode of The John-Henry Westen Show, Catholic author and political scientist Dr. Paul Kengor sits down to discuss his latest book, The Stigmatists: Their Gifts, Their Revelations, Their Warnings. In this episode, you will learn why St. Paul may have been the first stigmatist, that is, someone bearing marks on his body that resemble the wounds of Christ’s Passion, the politically incorrect visions of St. Catherine of Siena on God’s condemnation of sodomy, and much more.

> Join us in the fight!

> As you likely know by now, late Tuesday night, Church Militant was victorious in its motion to have the city of Baltimore prevented from any further interference in our Bishops: Enough is Enough rally.

> It is slated for November 16 at the MECU Pavilion in Baltimore Harbor, which is directly beside the Waterfront Marriott where the bishops have their annual November meeting.

> Here is the update: First, the judge granted our motion. In short, we won. This two-page injunction and an 86-page memo explaining the granting of the injunction were dropped late Tuesday. But early afternoon yesterday, the city of Baltimore, whose attorneys are doing everything they can to prevent this rally from happening, filed an appeal with the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond, Virginia.

> Since Baltimore did appeal, that has again put the rally on hold. Our legal team is investigating the procedural rules at the 4th Circuit to gauge what the time frame is for all of this to conclude. If and when court justices rule in our favor, the only other appeal Baltimore would have would be to the U.S. Supreme Court itself, and all are agreed that suffering two losses in such an obvious violation of First Amendment rights would be tough; the high court wouldn't likely even hear Baltimore's appeal.

> It's a sorry lot.

> As U.S. bishops finalize their plans for their Baltimore meeting in less than two weeks, it will be interesting to see if they have any discussion on the COVID craziness they have been so instrumental in helping spread.

> Bishops, like Ed Burns in Dallas, have led the charge in promoting fear and instituting virtual tyranny with the faithful. Of course, it's all done in the name of health and your safety because, you know, you aren't mature enough to make your own decisions.

> For decades, this lackluster group has done nothing except promote the notion that we Catholic laity are not children — we are mature adults and should stand upright in our decision-making. Our consciences are our guide. We don't have to kneel like little children to receive Holy Communion or be fed like we are toddlers. We are mature — full Catholic citizens.

> We should be involved in the life of the Church. We should be in the sanctuary. We need "active participation." Of course, all that hogwash gets dumped overboard the instant any layperson actually takes it seriously and follows it to its logical conclusion.

> The conference is controlled.

> There is something seriously wrong and deeply troubling about the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops — and we don't mean just the usual stuff.

> When the bishops get together as a conference, it's like some kind of demonic force, a demon, is at work, guiding everything going on there. The confusion, the absence of clarity, the muddled messages that pour forth like vomit — something is way off.

> During this past week, loads of Church Militant staff had multiple chance-meetings with numerous bishops, and, well, it was creepy. And it's not just the bishops, but loads of the "professional Catholic" crowd (as Pope Benedict referred to them). They, too, are under some kind of spell, all of them avoiding the reality of the Church's crisis and creating a substitute moral imperative to cover for their willful blindness.

> Since our various encounters with bishops were private (in a sense), we will skip over who the bishops were we talked with — and there were quite a few — and simply get to the what of what was conveyed.

> After the vote (222–8) to pass the much-applauded, toothless Eucharist document, we met multiple bishops that afternoon and especially the next day as they were all leaving to return to their dioceses. So we asked quite a few the direct question, "As a bishop, would you give Holy Communion to Joe Biden if he came to you?"

> It's a den of thieves.

> Based on what we have come to learn about the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) over our time in Baltimore, the Conference needs to be brought to an end.

> It is nothing more than a vehicle for obscuring the Faith, on the one hand, and advancing phony social justice warrior claims on the other. It is, in short, a den of thieves — stealing souls and money.

> The Conference operates on a roughly $200 million annual budget, and while it's true that a substantial portion of that budget is funded by all Americans' tax dollars, the rest of it is funded specifically by Catholics' donations into the weekly collection basket. The bishops agree to have each diocese chip in some percentage of its own budget and forward that on to USCCB headquarters in D.C. to pay for:

> - Liberal bureaucrats to lobby Congress for liberal causes
> - Bloated bureaucracy and
> - The bishops' twice per year gatherings

> In sum, you are paying for this Conference through a system of ecclesiastical and civil taxes. And for what? Absolutely nothing. Well, check that; if only nothing was being accomplished, that would be bad enough, but something far worse than just nothing is being accomplished here. The demolition of the Faith is going on.

> But this is nothing new. When you consider that the Conference (and its attendant evils over the years) was begun by Detroit's own über-liberal Cdl. John Dearden back in 1966 — immediately following Vatican II — none of this can surprise anyone.

It's what Church Militant is all about.

Probably the most famous voice to ever grace American airwaves was that of Paul Harvey, a radio icon who could be heard for nearly half a century by tens of millions of Americans.

In addition to the multiple taglines he created and used with great frequency was one that stood out as his most popular. That line, "the rest of the story," eventually became his most popular radio program, as well as a book, and eventually became the capstone to a career ending with him receiving the Presidential Medal of Freedom, in 2005, from George Bush.

What Harvey's approach did — his "rest of the story" — was give people the backstory on something going on. Today, we might call it "background" or "connecting the dots" or "context."

But whatever you call it, it was the presentation that highlighted how things were away from the public eye. Regardless of what he was reporting on, this segment contextualized what people knew just as the headlines.

In many ways, that's exactly what we do here at Church Militant. And while Harvey's Rest of the Story presentations were oftentimes more lighthearted than ours, the same principle applies. That principle is that you need to know the rest of the story.

Church Militant is absolutely dedicated to bringing you the rest of the story, meaning especially what you won't hear from other places because those other places don't want you hearing the rest of the story.

And dropping 'truth bombs.'

lease continue to excuse our rearranging in here as we accommodate our increased workload.

As you know, we're looking to hire some more staff. Please contact us on that point if you, or someone you know, is interested — and more bodies means a better use of space.

Real estate inside Church Militant is at a premium, and once we have all this rearranged (and some set construction finished), we'll show you what you've been seeing going on all this week, in its final form.

There's no doubt about it: The bigger Church Militant gets, the larger the target on our back gets. Of course, the reason for that is because of what we are doing — which is revealing the corruption in the Church and how scoundrels in the Church are cooperating with the corruption in the culture.

And our bombs — truth bombs — are hitting their targets. We are right over them, and we are taking their flak (their anti-aircraft guns, as it were).

We spoke yesterday about being canceled by our regular business insurance carrier as well as our video hosting service. We were also dropped by our regular accounting service. All of those we have replaced, and we are now in an even better place than we were before.

But the larger point is this is how we have to do business in the cancel culture. Living life on the front lines just costs more money, no two ways about it. Church Militant has chosen to go the route of independence, as we said yesterday. That decision is driven by the duty we have to report the truth of current events in the Church and the world — and put them into a Catholic context. If we didn't do that, there'd be no reason to exist.

There already exist a boatload of "professional Catholic" media outfits who keep the full truth from you. Why does the world need another one? Likewise, there are a ton of secular media outlets that have no understanding of the spiritual war playing out and report the day's news without that all-important context.

Here at Church Militant, we do both. That's our commitment to God; Church; and you, our supporters. But traveling along the road less traveled, you pick up a lot of enemies. That's the reason it's less traveled.

Just like EWTN used to when Mother was running the show, you say the truth — the whole truth — and you'd better believe the long knives come out.

Feeling pretty good this new year.

As we launch into 2022, please allow us to take just a brief moment and express our deep gratitude to everyone who contributed to us at the end of 2021.

Your generosity is truly humbling and, obviously, much appreciated. Our promise to you is that we will do everything we can to be as responsible as we can and spend your money wisely.

That includes who we hire, what we purchase, what we cover and everything that we have to pay for. We have said from day one that this apostolate belongs to you as well as us. We are just the ones who work inside the walls. But it is a work of the Church that is provided for by your generosity and the graces afforded us by your prayers.

So, as we step into 2022, please accept our heartfelt gratitude for how you committed to us at the end of 2021.

Now, turning our guns to the new year, 2022 has the potential to be the year that the Marxist forces in the Church and the culture experience their own "Stalingrad." For those who may not be World War II buffs, Stalingrad was where the Nazi war machine finally got bogged down after sweeping across Europe and enslaving virtually the entire continent. The truth is, the Soviet forces really should not have won that massive battle (they did have tenacity and the will to win on their side).

But, in addition to the Russian winter (something the Nazis greatly discounted), the Soviets decided to draw their line in the sand in Stalingrad. So much a statement did they make that communist leader Joseph Stalin actually renamed the city after himself to inspire his armies to fight harder to defend it.

Revolution is in the air.

As the new year dawns over the current empire of evil, it's helpful to play out the scenario of "where will we be one year from now?"

All over the world, the empire is cracking down on the peasantry — not because they see an advantage, but precisely because they feel they have to. They aren't pressing their cause, but rather fending off growing opposition to their tyranny. Be it politics or the Church, the evil leaders of the empire are becoming frantic and (here's the point) everyone can sense it.

The point of immediate visible overlap, for example, between the Church and politics, is the COVID tyranny. And when it was announced over New Year's that Washington, D.C., cardinal Wilton Gregory had come down with COVID, it all became so, well, clear.

The cardinal, in his role as champion of evil in the Church (also called Eucharistic sacrilege) was vaccinated, double vaccinated, boosted about 389 times, masked up, socially distanced and a nonstop promoter of all this idiocy.

When a high-profile, pro-COVID Church tyrant comes down with COVID, it simply underscores for the peasants that they are being lied to by those same Churchmen. And this stupid blame game of, "Eww — it's the unvaccinated causing all this because, you know, my vaccine doesn't work unless you get one," is finally blowing up.

Only the elites keep strumming those strings these days. Meanwhile, among the peasants, revolt is brewing. A poll over the New Year weekend said Americans rate 2021 (the first of Biden's unelected reign) as the worst year in memory, giving impetus to the old saying that "you can't fool all the people all the time."

And get trained up.

So as we move into the year of the peasant, the year of the counter-insurrection to the Marxist insurrection (the theft of election 2020), it's time to mobilize.

No counterrevolution, no counter-insurrection, can be won sitting on your duffs behind a keyboard. It's time to not take to social media and all that. It's time to hit the streets, to physically pound the pavement and the halls of power — just like the Marxists did for the past 50 years.

So here's a great place to start (and with a very important issue, and one Catholics should deeply care about): Border security and its link to election integrity.

Part of the Marxist plan to destroy America is to so weaken the borders that huge numbers of illegals simply flood in. Check. Then, once here, to establish them as operational citizens, giving them all the rights of citizenhood (just missing the actual piece of paper). Check.

One of those rights is, obviously, voting. And as we see in New York City (for example), the Marxists who run that hellhole are now giving 800,000 illegals the right to vote. It doesn't matter where you are: 800,000 voters suddenly added to the rolls is a major force, even in a city the size of New York.

These illegals are beholden to their Marxist overlords. They get on the government dole, which is nothing other than redistributing your wealth to them. They are housed, fed, and transported across the country, again with government dollars (your dollars), tens of millions, reaching into the hundreds of millions, being funneled through Catholic Charities (who pretend destroying America is some kind of biblical imperative, that illegal immigrants have the same rights in a country that actual citizens have).

The Vortex — First 'Gay' Pope     (rumble.com)

Lovin' the gay.

Back in the 1990s when Bill Clinton was in the White House, they used to call him America's first Black president.

It was a reference to his policies, which liberals said were so good for Black Americans that it was like Bill was Black. That was a lie, of course. No Democratic policies are ever good for Blacks. It was all political smoke and mirrors.

However, the terminology works in relation to what going on in Rome right now when it comes to homosexuals. Following the same pattern, Francis is the Church's first gay pope. He is certainly the first pope in history to not only first use the word gay but to throw it around nonstop.

There's something deeply wrong with a religious institution, especially the only one founded by the Son of God, especially this one, to be so welcoming to sodomy. LGBT is all about self-identifying by a perverted sexual act or acts. Period. These acts are immoral, evil and intrinsically disordered. They go against nature; they go against God.

They certainly aren't the only sexual acts or relationships that do, but they seem to be on the papal radar, as well as his advisors', with an eerie frequency.

In fact, he never shuts up about them.

If you tabulated the number of times the pope has talked about fornication, cohabitation, masturbation, pornography, adultery and so forth, all of them combined could not hold a candle to his nonstop yammering on about gay stuff. He is nonstop praising people in the Church pushing for more gay sex. He celebrates them publicly, sends them private letters (which become public), gives them awards, private audiences.
