Nun-DMC? Novus Ordo nun stuns with beatboxing talent

.
What could possibly go wrong? Tone-deaf Vatican turns to ‘hot priests’ to spread faith on social media.

Former Novus Ordo monk becomes ‘woman’. He should talk to ‘Bishop’ John Stowe of the diocese of Lexington — he might be able to become a ‘nun’ there now.

Nothing to see here, just a bunch of Novus Ordo seminarians from Denver involved in a bizarre (apparently fake) blood oath ceremony involving the seminary vice-rector, a dagger, and a mysterious man in a yeti costume. And it wasn’t even the first time!

Hooray, the ecological apocalypse has been cancelled: St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City is becoming climate-neutral!

Headbangers’ worship service in a ‘Catholic’ church? The diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart makes it possible!

Now that Prevost is ‘Pope’, he needs to raise up to $68 million to help pay for that ‘poor church for the poor’ that Francis left him….

U.S. government now recognizes only two sexes, male and female, in accordance with Genesis 1:27. Enough for Kentucky’s transgender hermit Nicole (‘Br. Christian’) Matson to fast, pray, and do penance!

The Francis Effect lives on: “Research shows that one of the most dramatic changes in American Catholic attitudes over the last few decades has been the shift with respect to the acceptance of LGBTQ+ people, their relationships, and their decisions to marry and form families.”

The intrepid ‘cardinal-archbishop’ of Barcelona, Spain, has heroically protected his flock from a Catholic lecture on Pope Pius XI’s encyclical Quas Primas and Christ the King.

Brother of infamous liberation theologian Leonardo Boff begs Novus Ordo bishops of Latin America to say something Catholic for once.

Ten years after Francis’ eco-encyclical Laudato Si’, some Novus Ordos wonder: Can Masses go organic?

Truly extraordinary: “An extraordinary minister of Holy Communion who identifies as ‘transgender’ said that Archbishop Christopher Coyne of Hartford, Connecticut, told him that he supports the so-called ‘LGBTQ community’ and that he agreed to change the archdiocese’s transgender policy for students to be ‘more positive.'”

Meanwhile in Italy: “Cardinal Domenico Battaglia allowed an LGBT activist to promote homosexual and transgender propaganda to the faithful during Mass at the Naples cathedral just weeks after Battaglia was created a cardinal by Pope Francis.”

It’s suspicious: How come ‘Cardinal’ Victor Manuel Fernandez has been so quiet lately?

In the rare event that a Novus Ordo priest courageously refuses ‘Holy Communion’ to a publicly scandalous politician, you can bet your bottom dollar that his Novus Ordo bishop will stab him in the back. And in the even rarer case that the Novus Ordo bishop should back the priest, why there’s always the ‘Pope’ to remove him (at least under Francis – we don’t know yet how Leo XIV will act)….

Aboriginally original: The ‘Archbishop’ of Melbourne, Australia, has a message (stick) for ‘Pope’ Leo XIV.

Memo to The Remnant: Using Vatican II to condemn the Vatican II revolution is not going to work. Interestingly enough, in this piece Robert Morrison refers to the errors of Vatican II merely as ideas “not clearly consistent with past teaching”. Two years ago, he was still talking about the errors of the council and advanced the absurd view that the Holy Ghost protected the Church not by preventing the council from teaching error but by making the error obvious.

Is that a threat — or a promise? Feminist ‘Catholic’ women go on Lenten strike because sexism and patriarchy!

Hellboy James Martin found another way to blaspheme the Most Holy Trinity.

“Eroticized mysticism, psychological sentimentality, and doctrinal ambiguity”: The Apostate Agenda of ‘Fr.’ Ron Rolheiser, OMI.

Shortly before his death, ‘Pope’ Francis made sure everyone understands there shouldn’t be too much pomp and splendor in the Novus Ordo liturgy — clearly a major problem in Novus Ordo Land, so much so that it deserved a ‘papal’ spanking from a man who had one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel.

‘Collapse’: After 12 long years of Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’), here are the numbers. Oh, and the number of people who came to see him at the Vatican plummeted also.

But what about all that Vatican II joy?! Study finds Novus Ordo sermons the most boring of all.

Hamburger party in church? Not a problem for ‘Bishop’ Giuliano Brugnotto in Vicenza, Italy! Drunken slappy disco rave in church? It’s made possible in Salzburg, Austria! For a special Hip-Hop ‘Mass’, you’ll have to go to Atlanta. But in the Czech Republic an abbey’s ecumenical ‘Pub Mass’ was too much even for the country’s Novus Ordo bishops. (But hey, that’s downright solemn compared to whatever this is in Argentina!)

Sign of things to come? Vatican prefect, newspaper pay tribute to Teilhard de Chardin.

‘Archbishop’ Salvatore Cordileone of San Francisco may be a conservative by Novus Ordo standards, but he’s still a man of Vatican II: Cordileone at synagogue’s interfaith blessing.

New Stations of the Cross focus on suffering of Native Americans. Remember the old ones? They focused on the suffering of Jesus Christ. Pre-Vatican II, you know.

You can’t make this stuff up: Novus Ordo university in New Jersey cancels ‘drag bingo’ after students plan Rosary rally.

Not that popular: Did you know that the cathedral of Washington, D.C., was 75% empty for the installation of ‘Cardinal’ Robert McElroy back in March? Camera position and camera angle make all the difference….

Money talks: ‘Catholic’ hospital claims unborn baby is not a person to limit malpractice damages.

The state of ‘Catholicism’ in the United Kingdom: Anglican ‘priestess’ who supports abortion and has had two abortions herself was invited to speak at a Lenten event hosted by a Novus Ordo parish in the diocese of Plymouth.

He was really flawless and just pretending to be a sinner, eh? 😉 Vatican nuncio to the U.S., ‘Cardinal’ Christophe Pierre, says he doesn’t ‘see any flaw in Pope Francis’.

That ‘Church of Mercy’ is tone-deaf: “An archbishop in France appointed last month a priest convicted of raping a 16-year-old boy to the position of archdiocesan chancellor — telling French media that the appointment was meant as an act of mercy, and the position is mostly administrative.” Victims are furious, but ‘Abp.’ de Kerimel defends his decision!

When religion is longer about the salvation of souls, people ask questions like: “How can religions work together to promote social cohesion and climate justice?”

‘Popémon’? Leo XIV blesses and signs ‘Popplio’ Pokémon card for pilgrims in Rome.

Michael Hichborn explains why the American Novus Ordo hymnal is dangerous (not to mention the Novus Ordo ‘Mass’ itself).

Chicago’s ‘archbishop’ eats out: ‘Cardinal’ Cupich praises Muslim ‘brothers and sisters’ at annual ‘Iftar’ dinner for Ramadan. Come on, in Belgium they have that in church! (And in Indonesia in school!) By the way, did he read them the Vatican’s message for the festive occasion?

The ‘Lion’ of Peru: Vatican News releases documentary on Robert Prevost (Leo XIV).

That ‘ultra-orthodox’ ‘Cardinal’ Gerhard Ludwig Müller says Fr. Gustavo Gutierrez (1928-2024), the father of liberation theology, was one of the great theologians of our time.

Who knew there could be a ‘male’ theology? Why, Francis did, of course!

Novus Ordo liturgical insanity knows no bounds: ABBA ‘Mass’ celebrates first responders in Austria! Don’t like it? There’s always Teddy Bear ‘Mass’ in Vienna and the Witches’ Confraternity ‘Mass’ in France!

No syncretism here, just a ‘Catholic’-Shintoist temple in Japan.

Take the impossible challenge: Which of these two photos shows a Novus Ordo ‘Mass’, and which a Protestant Eucharistic service? Don’t worry, you’ll get it wrong! 😉

Novus Ordo music director: “It’s Time We Stop Singing About Ourselves at Mass.”

As regards their vociferous denunciation of the deportation of illegal immigrants, do America’s Novus Ordo bishops have a conflict of intere$t?

Just groovy, man: The big unveiling of the ‘New Mass’ in Philadelphia took place in a high school auditorium 55 years ago.

If you don’t want to see yet another Novus Ordo priest dancing wildly in the sanctuary, don’t click here. If you don’t want to see one dancing suggestively with the youth, don’t click here. Or how about a whole bunch of Filipino clergy dancing for St. Valentine? Don’t click!! (And… uhm…. what’s this?!)

Sixty years after Vatican II: Catholic Spain no longer exists, says country’s top Novus Ordo bishop. Meanwhile in Germany, they’re selling churches on ebay….

At least the place is safe from the Traditional Latin Mass: “A Catholic parish that serves as an ecumenical parish with the Episcopal (Anglican) community allowed the ‘ordination’ of a female Episcopal “priest” inside the shared worship space and then accepted her as co-pastor.”

According to one expert, 90% of Germany’s Novus Ordo Bishops Subscribe to Views on Human Sexuality that Depart From Church Teaching. And that’s just on human sexuality. Can you imagine how many depart from Catholic teaching about hell, the Social Kingship of Christ, or salvation?

Case in point: The document “Male, Female, Diverse: Framework for Sexual Education at Catholic Schools in the Archdiocese of Hamburg” is ready for implementation next year! “The Archdiocese of Hamburg in Germany has published new guidelines for sexual education promoting homosexuality and transgenderism.”

The Pillar explains how to distinguish an AI version of Leo XIV from the real fake pope. This headline of a similar report is amusingly amphibolous: Vatican warns about fake pope quotes, videos. Alas, their use of the word ‘fake’ was in reference to ‘quotes, videos’, not ‘pope’.

Brilliant! Vatican judges won’t consider evidence that could harm reputations of high-ranking officials.

Looks like ‘mistakes were made’, eh? Failure to find bodies ends Canada’s inquiry into mass burials at Church-run schools. But hey, it gave Bergoglio an opportunity to humiliate Catholic Church before the world and to gain smudgy access to the Western grandma, remember?

Turns out ‘Pope’ Francis’ ostentatious ‘humility’ cost the Vatican a lot of money…

Down under in Bendigo, Australian Novus Ordo bishop allows obscene Hindu display in cathedral. Blatant occultism! But then — poof! — it vanishes!

No surprise there: At Vatican conference, ‘Catholic’ scholars discuss faith as foundation for ethics — with unbelievers.

A quick shout-out to Franciscan Fr. Isaac Mary Relyea, who recently recommended WM Review and Novus Ordo Watch even though he is not a sedevacantist.

Dear Vatican II adherents: Is there religious freedom also for Satanists?

No way, that would involve a conspiracy! Were ‘Popes’ John XXIII and Paul VI CIA agents?

In case you didn’t hear about it: Disgraced former ‘Cardinal’ Theodore McCarrick died on April 3 at age 94. (Some background here and a timeline here.)

Remember back in 1978, when even an indult (=traditionalist but in full communion with Rome) publication questioned the validity of Paul VI’s 1968 rite of holy orders?

Anthroposophy, Hermeticism, Tarot Spirituality: Why you should stay away from Angelico Press. Looks like the silence about esotericism and occultism infiltrating the ‘trad’ world is finally breaking. Don’t be fooled — the Antichrist will likely be ‘conservative’.

A slave to his own flawed principles, Dr. Peter Kwasniewski happily announces the publication of a pre-Pius X Divine Office (Breviary). Yes, you read that right: the Breviary in use before the reforms of Pope St. Pius X in 1911, which Dr. K believes illustrate a “liturgical Modernism” on the part of the anti-Modernist Pope. The new publication even features musical notation for “pre-Urban VIII hymns” (Pope Urban VIII reigned 1623-1644). How dare Pope Pius X impose “novel compositions even when the traditional ones could have continued to be used” in the judgment of Dr. Kwasniewski! There are two things the professor, for all his learning, does not appear to grasp: (a) He’s not the Pope, and (b) obedience to papal liturgical directives is much more pleasing to God than disobedient attachment to what one believes to be ‘more traditional’ — although, to be fair, the laity are free to use whatever Catholic prayer books they wish, since they are not bound to recite the Divine Office in the first place.

Is ignoring the ‘pope’ or hoping that he speaks less a solution—or a further symptom of the ‘Totem Pope’ illusion?

What, you didn’t hear about this? “The Polish media have created a stir recently by outing Cardinal Stanisław Dziwisz, the former personal secretary of Saint John Paul II, for carrying on a homosexual relationship with an Italian, Andrea Nardotto, whom he ordained a permanent deacon in a private ceremony in Warsaw.”

In the footsteps of Bergoglio: Leo XIV appoints new Oregon ‘bishop’ who helped draft LGBT pastoral guidelines in Iowa.

Profane paradise: The modern world amuses itself to death in deconsecrated churches.

Fundamentally flawed: A sedevacantist critiques Jesuit Mark Massa’s new book, Catholic Fundamentalism in America.

Vatican II’s false teaching on the ends of holy matrimony: A response to Andrew Mioni of ‘Trad Recovery’.

The triangle is a Catholic symbol for the Most Holy Trinity, even though Freemasons have co-opted it for their own wicked purposes.

This year, the sedevacantist Congregation of Mary Immaculate Queen’s Fatima Conference will take place Oct. 8-12. Registration deadline is Sep. 25.

Just the facts: What does the Catholic Church say about immigration?
