Contrary to the monsignor’s opinion, the Church of Tradition is attractive. Why is that? Because she is the stumbling block that the Gospel mentions (Cf. 1 Cor 8) the unmoved rock on which the waves of the Zeitgeist break in vain. Thousands of young men are attracted to more “traditional” ways of doing things, of a clear priestly identity, of a priestly vocation that expresses itself in outwardly visible signs, in a referent liturgy without abuses, and in a Church that is the Rock – because she knows that she will win over the world. The Latin Mass is crowded with young families and many children. Children who will be educated in the faith too.

Article is full of good information like the above snippet. If only more knew that the crimes of Vatican II has nullified all the "official" changes and acts due to apostate popes from John XXII - to present false pope.

Caesar use the same terminology when describing civilizations or countries that have grown soft because of their lavish lifestyles. If a country including Rome became affluent then they also became effeminate. The word effeminate which Caesar used in the Classic Latin translates to soft. When a country or perhaps even an order become soft it becomes ineffective, weak, and easily conquered.

It was a JOKE. He was calling the preening priest effeminate, which I’m sure he looked like.

“Had Christ not owned a cape so precious that even well-paid Roman soldiers did not want to cut it in half?”

In an attempt at keeping contextually accurate, by rending the cloth the soldiers knew that the value would be appreciably less, which meant that the amount of cheap rude wine procured would be less as well.

I’m tired of hearing about this pope. How anyone could remain in such a crazy religious system is beyond me.

1. What women do you know that wear dresses today?

2. What priest from A.D. 1700 through A.D. 1958, who actually were dressed as that man, do you accuse of being effeminate?

3. Why is a man who calls himself “pope” mocking those as “rigid” who would like to have back the papacy and have it be occupied by a ROCK of a man rather than a waffling, “pastoral” wimp who wants to make TRUTH more appealing to the effeminate Sodomites and adulterers and marxists and heretics such as whom Mr. Jorge Bergoglio prefers to hug and coddle?

4. Jesus proclaimed the pope as one who is more than rigid: Rock.

I always wonder about the blood. We can assume that all of His clothes were soaked in it, so to me it’s always been a question of who (among the unbelievers) would want it at all? Did they have a good way to remove blood stains back then, in the days before bleach?

Not clear what you’re saying here. Are you disputing the idea that Jesus Christ our Lord was wearing a fine piece of clothing by comparing it to cheap wine? (If so, how does the context bear that out?)

You apparently didn’t agree with my assessment of him being a false pope.

When you have false popes you have a crazy religious system.

Get over calling the men “pope” who “reigned” from 1958 though today, and submit to the popes prior, and you will find a sane religious system established by Jesus Christ.

Today there are real priests and bishops, though few, who live in that reality. They can be found and will lead you to Christ Jesus.

He’s not a false pope - he’s a heterodox pope.

I wear dresses to work and to church. For making other people more respectful and polite, it’s even better than open carry.

__+__+__+__+__+__+__+___+__+__+__+__+__+__+__

Basing on Wikipedia’s definition, “Heterodoxy in the Roman Catholic Church refers to views that differ from strictly orthodox views, but retain sufficient faithfulness to the original doctrine to avoid heresy...”

All supposed claimants since the last true pope (Pius XII) are frauds, as they embraced and promoted actual heresy.

Briefly: ecumenism, synchretism with false religions and heretics, and religious liberty, as well as changing the sacred doctrines of the Church by the changing of and elimination of vital content in the Mass and Sacraments so as to render their legitimacy suspect and void of grace. In particular it is quite clear that the words of consecrating a bishop are invalid for confecting the office.

Currently Bergoglio cannot let a day go by without speaking blasphemies for the whole world to hear.

1. FEW women in the West wear dresses today. Women in pants or slacks was condemned by the Pope and the Church in the 50 years prior to these past (sad) 50.

2. I know priests who dress in robes and a hat, and they look and act manly and pius. (When is the last time you’ve heard the word “pius” even spoken or written?)

3. I have a very clear idea why the false Pope would mock everyone who protects doctrine from change as rigid. He is an enemy of Christ who in that role wishes to sway the flock to give the treasures of the Church to the unclean. Incidentally, because his brains fell out as you well noted, he was ineligible for the Papacy in the first place, as Canon Law states that one cannot be chosen as Vicar of Christ if insane. Those who elected Bergoglio are apostates and heretics if Catholic.

4. Popes and theologians over the years have confirmed that Jesus had the perpetual Papacy in mind when Jesus proclaimed Peter as the rock upon which he would create His Church. (That is why we know that the past handful of sitters were not Popes. We, rather, are awaiting the next true Pope.)
