A picture is worth a thousand words: An image from the Jesuit fueled (alphabet soup disordered) Jubilee visit to St. Peter’s Basilica

Today’s Mass, Votive of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, is for the intentions of her Immaculate Heart… which includes REPARATION.

Some people dream of being able to go to Rome and visit St. Peter’s. It is, for many, a singular experience of a lifetime, never to be repeated.

And they have to see THAT.

    Imagine wearing a t-shirt (or vestment) that says “Down with the [illicit and illegal] rules” in Charlotte or Chicago these days while attending (or celebrating) the Traditional Latin Mass or even kneeling for communion in the Novus Ordo.

    Or pastorally deciding that children aren’t appropriate Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion.

    How much longer, O Lord, must Your Holy Church, suffer for the rabid wolves dressed in liturgical vestments?

  3. APX says:

    I thought the Vatican had a dress code for entering into churches?

  4. Yes, there are clearly visible signs about dress before going into the Basilica and there are supposed to be people outside and at the doors to be watchful about dress, etc.

    Apparently, they were told not to do anything.

    Unless Pope Leo immediately and forcefully condemns this abomination of desolation allowed to enter St. Peter’s, it will be clear that he serves Satan and not Jesus. In light of what happened to Michael J. Matt’s young daughter, I pray the Pope will think carefully about Jesus’ words in St. Matthew 18:6: “But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.”

    Where are the bishops and other clergy who should be crying out “shame! shame! shame!”?? The faithful have been orphaned for too long. God have mercy.

    It saddens me to see this slap in the face to those with disordered sexuality trying to live chaste lives according to Church teachings. No wonder organizations such as Courage receive so little support from our church leaders.
    Pray for the these poor souls and the reconversion of our leaders.

    What a contrast to the SSPX pilgrimage last week.

    Which of the two groups is getting favor and encouragement from the highest levels of the hierarchy?

    Once you answer that question, ask yourself why. The answer to that second question is a very unpleasant one.

    Dear David,

    it is clear who offended here, and it is not the Pope.

    Not doing wrong things is obvious and easy; as is not explicitly and positively praising them. That’s what you can expect. On the other hand, how to react when others do very much is a matter of prudence and of the smallest evil, etc. You do not get to say „unless the Pope does that exactly as loud as I want, I can treat him as a servant of the Devil“. You just don‘t.

    Pope Leo is not Pope Francis. Don‘t make him; because, you know, it is not altogether impossible that giving the impression that we trads are ever-criticizing, impossible to satisfy, and quick with words like „servant of Satan“ etc. whenever they critize, could have such an effect.

    As Taylor Marshall said, the optics of trans activists meeting with the Pope and in St. Peter basilica, are outrageous given the killing/wounding of the Annunciation children just several days before.

  11. Sonshine135 says:

    It is difficult for us to see anything positive in what happened yesterday, but at least the mask is off, and we are seeing these vipers for who they truly are.

    This hurts.

    I have had the blessing and great pleasure of visiting the Vatican and other holy sites. At no time did I take if for granted, and I was *very* aware of doing nothing to offend, not only my fellow Catholics and my Italian hosts, but most of all offending Jesus in the home parish of the Catholic Church.

    I am a sinner, just like everyone who reads this. But what is the point of working so hard for the Kingdom of God, and for living as God so clearly asked in Scripture, if knuckleheads like Fr. Martin and his followers are celebrated in their profane attire and scandalous lives?

    Yes, I am a sinner, and I want so much to be a saint. But I cannot get over my resentment. I am heartbroken.

  13. Elizabeth R says:

    This reminds me of the LGBTQ funeral at St. Patrick’s last year. The Archdiocese of NY denounced the attendees’ behavior and offered a Mass in reparation for the offenses. I hope there will be some similar response from the Vatican.

  14. Ben says:

    @Chiara;

    Yes, I feel that too. What’s the point, given the monumental sacrilege? I am heartbroken, and it pains me to see this. But there will be a reckoning.

    The point is this though… your trials and effort are for your soul, that God has brought into the world. Your soul is in your hands. That is why you put the effort in.

    I’m speaking to myself as much as to you.

  15. Gaetano says:

    I didn’t know that I could be more disgusted with the Jesuits & the Francis papacy, but they found a way to let me down even further.

    Can we also discuss the artistic desecration of the Gesu’s sanctuary with the standalone altar & crazed ambo?

  16. SimpleCatholic says:

    As someone who was present in the eternal city on October 20, 2019, I think that it’s time for something else to be thrown into the Tiber. Anyone know where the rainbow cross those “pilgrims” brought into the Gesu ended up?
