No ‘Amoris Laetitia’ Here: A Priest Explains What Catholics in an Invalid Marriage Ought to Do (1957)

Moral truth does not change with the times…

No Amoris Laetitia Here: A Priest Explains What Catholics in an Invalid Marriage Ought to Do (1957)

The following is a brief article penned by Fr. Donald F. Miller, C.SS.R. (1903-1969) in 1957. Entitled “For Wives and Husbands Only: Moral Obligations of the Invalidly Married”, it concerns the moral obligations of adulterous couples, that is, of couples who live as if they were married to each other before God but are not and cannot be because at least one of the two is already married to someone else. In other words, we are talking about the ‘divorced-and-remarried’.… READ MORE

Francis: Fornicators and Adulterers who Cohabit Are Just as Welcome in the Church as the Married!

On Nov. 25, 2024, the apostate Jesuit Jorge Bergoglio (aka ‘Pope Francis’) addressed the academic community of the so-called John Paul II Pontifical Theological Institute for Marriage and Family Sciences in Rome. That is the entity re-created from scratch by Francis in 2016 and since then led by ‘Abp.’ Vincenzio Paglia of questionable reputation (indeed!), who was also in attendance at the audience.

Under the guise of “strengthen[ing] bonds of family and marriage”, Francis substantially undermined the same by counseling his listeners to treat illicit unions and their offspring as being practically equal to a valid marriage and a true family.… READ MORE

Contents

  • Segment 1 — The Vatican’s new guidelines for discerning alleged apparitions and mystical phenomena. Eric Sammons and that pesky question of whether Francis professes the Catholic Faith. The Remnant promotes Pope Pius IX’s encyclical Qui Pluribus but rejects its teaching on the Papacy.

Over a Dozen ‘Prominent Catholics’ Warn Francis: Resign or Be Deposed!

Bad theology against a false pope – not going to work!

Over a Dozen ‘Prominent Catholics’ Warn Francis:
Resign or Be Deposed!

On May 2, 2024, the feast of Saint Athanasius, the semi-traditionalist blog Rorate Caeli published a ‘major statement’ against Jorge Bergoglio (aka ‘Pope Francis’). It is entitled “Call for the Resignation of Pope Francis” and bears the signatures of 16 people Life Site describes as “prominent Catholics”.

Just how prominent the signatories are, is another question, but it doesn’t really matter. Their names, along with their respective credentials, are listed by Rorate Caeli as follows:

Rev. Linus F.

Chicago Novus Ordo Pastor Officiates Lesbian Pseudo-Wedding: Exchange of Vows plus Blessing!

[UPDATE 13-MAY-2024: Vincentians release letter with ‘apology’ of sorts by Rev. Williams]

Video footage has emerged showing a Novus Ordo priest officiating a same-sex ceremony mocking the Holy Sacrament of Matrimony. He is shown presiding over an exchange of vows of two women and then conferring a blessing on them.

This is not a matter of rumor or speculation. The identity of all parties is known, and the presbyter has admitted that the ceremony took place.

Before we continue, here is the video clip shared on Instagram on Apr.… READ MORE

Francis Says Homo Couples Are
‘Two People Who Love Each Other’

Bergoglio’s mug graces the cover of Credere magazine (Feb. 8, 2024 edition)

The Vatican’s chief anti-Catholic agitator has given another interview to the press.

We are speaking of Jorge Mario Bergoglio, of course, the Jesuit from Buenos Aires who has been squatting in the Vatican guest house under his stage name ‘Pope Francis’ since 2013.

At one point in the increasingly-distant past, a ‘papal’ interview was considered a spectacular and almost unique event. Now they’re a dime a dozen, as Bergoglio cranks them out faster than people can digest them.… READ MORE

Another Scandalous Fernández Book Unearthed: DDF Prefect Published Blasphemous Porn in 1998

Another Scandalous Fernández Book Unearthed:
DDF Prefect Published Blasphemous Porn in 1998

There are news stories so sordid that no decent person wants to cover them. Then there are news stories so significant that there’s no way one can ignore them.

This current one is a mix of both, so please be forewarned:

The remainder of the post, including any links, may include explicit words or ideas that pertain to human sexuality and/or involve blasphemy.

In 1998, then-‘Fr.’ Victor Manuel Fernandez, today the prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, published a book on spirituality and erotic love that is so sexually explicit/pornographic that it makes his 1995 book Heal Me With Your Mouth look like a chastity manual by comparison.… READ MORE

‘Pope’ Francis Green-Lights Blessings of Sodomite Couples

The so-called Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF) released a document today that essentially allows Novus Ordo priests to bless sinful unions. In particular, it permits the blessing not simply of sodomitic individuals but precisely of couples. Of course the same goes for heterosexual couples who are in an adulterous union or otherwise ‘irregular situation’.

Entitled Fiducia Supplicans, the document has been published by the Vatican press office in Italian, French, English, German, and Spanish:

Did Francis approve Blessings for Homo Couples? Examining his Response to the Pre-Synod Dubia

October 2 of this year was D-Day — ‘Dubia Day’: The Vatican’s Dicastery for the Destruction of the Faith, now headed by ‘Cardinal’ Victor Manuel Fernandez, released official and authoritative responses (personally signed by Jorge Bergoglio, aka ‘Pope Francis’) to two sets of Dubia that had been submitted in July: one set of ten questions by ‘Cardinal’ Dominik Duka, and one set of five questions by ‘Cardinals’ Raymond Burke, Juan Sandoval Íñiguez, Walter Brandmüller, Robert Sarah, and Joseph Zen.

As was to be expected, the Vatican responses were loaded with fireworks.… READ MORE

Archlayman of Munich: Nothing Wrong with Sodomy!

The ‘Marxist’ is at it again…

Archlayman of Munich:
Nothing Wrong with Sodomy!

What passes for “Catholic theology” less than 60 years after the close of the Second Vatican Council is absolutely pathetic.

The dangerous Nouvelle Théologie (“New Theology”), rejected by Pope Pius XII in 1946 and also in 1950, has thoroughly dissolved genuine Catholic intellectual thought and led its proponents exactly to where the impeccably orthodox Fr. Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange predicted it would: straight back to Modernism.

A clear example of that can be found in “Cardinal” Reinhard Marx, who has been “Archbishop” of Munich since 2008, and who has been one of “Pope” Francis’ closest advisors for years.… READ MORE

Top German Novus Ordo Bishop says Sodomy, Adultery not sinful, wants Catechism changed

The Mar. 3, 2022, issue of Bunte magazine, a German weekly that focuses on celebrity gossip, contains an interview with Dr. Georg Bätzing (pp. 44-46), the “Roman Catholic bishop” of Limburg, Germany.

Batzing is the immediate successor to “Bp.” Franz-Peter Tebartz-van Elst, the theologically conservative “bishop of bling”, who now works right under Francis’ nose in Vatican City for the so-called Pontifical Council for Promoting the New Evangelization.

What makes Batzing an object of interest for the secular press these days, however, is another office he currently holds: He is the president of the German Bishops’ Conference, which makes him the nation’s chief Novus Ordo bishop.… READ MORE

Latvian Novus Ordo Bishops ask Parliament to Legalize Sodomite Civil Unions

You just can’t make it up…

Latvian Novus Ordo Bishops ask Parliament to Legalize Sodomite Civil Unions


He looks harmless on the outside: Mr. Zbignev Stankevics plays Catholic archbishop in Riga

You may remember that back in October, the apostate Antipope Jorge Bergoglio (“Francis”) made waves when it was revealed that he was personally in favor of governments establishing legal protections for sodomite couples (so-called “civil unions”) as a kind of juridical equivalent to the protections and privileges granted to the married. This resulted in a veritable firestorm of controversy and protest among those in the Vatican II Church that retain even a modicum of Catholicism:

Francis’ remarks, however “inofficial” they may have been, have naturally emboldened the homo lobby and have increased the philosophical and theological confusion of those weaned on the theology of Vatican II.… READ MORE
