Ooh -- ooh! Go get 'em, goombah!
I like to see an Italian with a fighting spirit.
The rampant apostasy throughout the "Counterfeit Church," as one perceptive commentator calls the Novus Ordo, makes the charge that traditional Catholics are "schismatic," "not in communion with Rome," or "in need of reconciliation" not only absurd, but downright laughable. All men need forgiveness for their transgressions. However, the shambles that the Church currently finds itself in is not the fault of traditional Catholics, but is an ungodly manifestation of the New Religion concocted by the present crop of Modernist prelates and their forefathers. It is Cardinal Dario Castrillon Hoyos and his fellow bishops, including those of the city of Rome, who need to seek forgiveness, not so much from this world, but, more importantly, from the next, for the incalculable harm that they have brought to Almighty God's once Holy Church.
The harm produced by the Novus Ordo knows no limits.
It is imperative for the average Catholic to protect his soul from the pernicious influence of the Novus Ordo at all times, especially on Sundays.
Modernism -- a term being abused these days. And why should we be surprised? After all it is a tenet of Modernism as defined by Pope Saint Pius X in Pascendi, 1907, to take Catholic terminology and use the words over and over in a warped sense, positivisitcally, so as to attribute some other meaning to them, so as to instill confusion and discord into the minds of the reader and/or listener. But what greater abuse could there be than to attribute not just a DIFFERENT meaning but the OPPOSITE meaning to the words? Such is the method of diabolical disorientation. Such is the way of the devil.
What exactly does it mean to "adhere to a schism?"
