Dr. Kwasniewski Reacts to Novus Ordo Watch Critique: I Don’t Engage Sedevacantists!

Earlier this month, yours truly joined Louie Verrecchio for a video podcast to respond to a recent article by Dr. Peter Kwasniewski regarding papal authority and the Sacred Liturgy. The video was released on Apr. 4 on Verrecchio’s channel and a day later on Novus Ordo Watch’s:

On Apr. 6, Kwasniewski published a comment on Facebook and on Twitter explaining that people had asked him if he was going to respond, which he answered in the negative because “I do not engage sedevacantists.”… READ MORE

Catholic Answers: God Can Choose to Save Atheists!

The California-based non-profit organization Catholic Answers, which aims to explain and defend the Vatican II religion in full communion with ‘Pope’ Francis, is becoming a parody of itself.

One of the many things published on the Catholic Answers web site is a brief post with the intriguing title, “Can atheists be saved just by acting charitably?” The truly Catholic answer would have been fairly simple — something along the lines of, “Of course not; for ‘without faith it is impossible to please God’ (Heb 11:6).” … READ MORE

The ‘Pope’ of Surprises: Francis Shows Up in Plain Clothes at St. Peter’s Basilica

Today, Apr. 10, 2025, the convalescing ‘Pope’ Francis (Jorge Bergoglio), who according to his doctors is supposed to have as little contact as possible with others and is to stay confined to his apartment in the Casa Santa Marta until May, had himself wheeled into Saint Peter’s Basilica, reportedly to pray at the tomb of Pope St. Pius X (r. 1903-14).

The most unusual aspect of this was that Francis decided to appear without his usual papal attire — white cassock, skull cap, ring, ugly pectoral cross — instead preferring to be seen as just another old man in a wheelchair.… READ MORE

[UPDATE: Video of Charles and Camilla’s Visit added to post below]

Nine years ago, on Apr. 8, 2016, the Argentinian Modernist Jorge Bergoglio (aka ‘Pope’ Francis) issued the infernal apostolic exhortation Amoris Laetitia, which gave the green light to those in the Vatican II Church who are in an adulterous second ‘marriage’ — the so-called ‘divorced-and-remarried’ — to receive Holy Communion without first repenting of their adultery.… READ MORE

The Pope and the Breviary: Response to Dr. Peter Kwasniewski (Video)

Host Louie Verrecchio and guest Mario Derksen dismantled a recent article by Dr. Peter Kwasniewski

On Mar. 26, 2025, Dr. Peter Kwasniewski published an article on the New Liturgical Movement site entitled, “Do Priests or Religious Need Special Permission to Pray a Pre-55 Breviary?”.

In it, the author, who is a popular and prolific advocate of recognize-and-resist traditionalism, attempts to answer the question whether clerics who are required by canon law to pray daily the Roman Breviary (aka Divine Office, Liturgy of the Hours) may fulfill their obligation by using the Breviary edition from before 1955, that is, before Pope Pius XII simplified the rubrics for the Sacred Liturgy with the decree Cum Nostra Hac Aetate of the Sacred Congregation of Rites (Mar.… READ MORE

Fernandez Clarifies Vatican Stance on Transgender Surgeries: OK in Exceptional, Severe Cases

On July 1, 2023, the Vatican’s resident mystical porn author and notorious kissing expert, Victor Manuel Fernandez (b. 1962), was promoted by Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’) to become the head of the Vatican’s Dicastery for the Doctrine Destruction of the Faith. We warned about him from the get-go, saying he would be Francis’ doctrinal undertaker in his new role, and indeed he has not failed to deliver.… READ MORE

‘Cardinal’ Dolan of New York: Christ’s New Covenant Exists Side-By-Side with Jewish Old Covenant!

The ‘Archbishop’ of New York, Timothy Dolan, thinks the Jews have their own valid covenant with  God

‘Cardinal’ Timothy Dolan (b. 1950) is a funny character. Not only has he been playing Roman Catholic archbishop of New York since 2009, he has also gone on record claiming that there are two covenants in existence between God and mankind: one between God and the Jews, and one between God and Christians.

In an article published two weeks ago in The Free Press, ‘Cardinal’ Dolan stated in all seriousness:

The Church’s stance on antisemitism is unequivocal.

Caution! German Novus Ordo Bishops Concelebrate Eucharist on Bizarre Altar

Image: Deutsche Bischofskonferenz/Marko Orlovic (cropped)

One of the most useless organizations in the world is the Conference of German Novus Ordo Bishops. Officially it bears the name ‘German Episcopal Conference’ (Deutsche Bischofskonferenz). It is essentially a body of well-funded Modernists and über-Modernists whose chief task seems to lie in wrecking what little resemblance to Catholicism may still be left in the souls under their care, “lest believing they should be saved” (Lk 8:12).

The current head of the ‘Catholic bishops’ of Germany is Mr.READ MORE

He’s Alive! First Public Appearance of ‘Pope’ Francis since Hospitalization

Today, Mar. 23, 2025, the Argentinian apostate Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’) made his first live public appearance since Feb. 14, defying many people’s expectations.

Around noon local time, the false pope was wheeled onto the balcony of his hospital suite on the 10th floor of the Gemelli clinic in Rome. He greeted the crowd of people gathered and spoke a few words. The entire appearance lasted about 90 seconds.

Here is the video, cued up to the moment when Bergoglio appears (around 8:33 min):

Blasphemy in Austria: ‘Catholic’ Parish Displays Jesus Christ Sawn to Pieces

One of the things the Vatican II Church is really good at is blaspheming Our Blessed Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and profaning all that is holy.

We are currently in the penitential season of Lent, and for some Novus Ordo prelates in Austria, that means installing some kind of crazy, lewd, or downright blasphemous ‘artwork’ in church. After all, one wouldn’t want to be considered square, reactionary, or old-fashioned, and so showing oneself wedded to the secular world and the cultural spirit of the age is a top priority in Novus Ordo Land, especially in German-speaking countries.… READ MORE

Who Came Up with the Idea that Christ’s Church ‘Subsists in’ the Catholic Church, as Vatican II Teaches?

Many readers of this blog will be familiar with the controversy concerning the teaching of the Second Vatican Council (1962-65) that the Church founded by Jesus Christ “subsists in” (Latin: subsistit in) the Roman Catholic Church, as taught in its 1964 dogmatic constitution on the Church, as follows:

This Church constituted and organized in the world as a society, subsists in the Catholic Church, which is governed by the successor of Peter and by the Bishops in communion with him, although many elements of sanctification and of truth are found outside of its visible structure.

Ecumenical Carnival Liturgy with Mock Communion Service in Swiss Catholic Church

Willisau is a tiny town in Switzerland, and we wouldn’t be talking about it were it not for the annual so-called “Fools’ Mass” that takes place at the ‘Catholic’ Church of Saints Peter and Paul there during the carnival season. (To see our report on last year’s shenanigans, click here.)

Although called a Mass, it was actually an ecumenical ‘Liturgy of the Word’ plus a grotesque ‘communion’ service that makes the average Novus Ordo Liturgy look like a Solemn Pontifical High Mass offered by Pope St.… READ MORE

Monsignor Henri Delassus (1836-1921) was an esteemed French Catholic priest, author, and editor. Pope St. Pius X conferred on him the title of ‘Monsignor’, making him a Domestic Prelate in 1904 and a Protonotary Apostolic in 1911. More information here:

In 1910, Msgr. Delassus published a monumental 3-volume work entitled La Conjuration Antichrétienne, which translates as The Anti-Christian Conspiracy.… READ MORE

Clear Answers on a Touchy Subject: Is It Ever Morally Permissible to Wish for Someone’s Death?

The ongoing hospitalization of the Argentinian apostate Jorge Bergoglio (‘Pope Francis’), has brought a delicate moral question to the forefront that a lot of people may be wondering about but don’t quite know how to resolve and are perhaps reluctant to ask:

Is it ever morally permissible (that is, not sinful) to desire (wish, hope for, pray for) that a particular individual will die? Or is it always and necessarily sinful to do so?

The purpose of the present post is simply to help form consciences correctly regarding this matter by providing reliable, authentic Catholic information.… READ MORE
