Society has a thirst for transcendence, but “the old instruments have already fulfilled their purpose and no longer meet the needs of today's people". This claims Bishop Tomáš Holub, 58, of Plzeň, Czech Republic, in a lengthy article about "Synodality and the Novus Ordo Missae" on 21 July on the blog Come se non, run by the Italian theologian Andrea Grillo. Grillo is an opponent of the Roman rite and is considered an influencer of Traditionis Custodes. According to Bishop Holub, a missionary outlook must be rooted in synodality: "Synodality is not merely a technique of communication, but a way of living the faith... The point is not to hold a synod, but to become a synod." The Czech bishop goes on that the Novus Ordo provides the appropriate expression of the Church's synodal identity: "The Novus Ordo makes it possible for this synodality to be applied in the liturgical sphere. Otherwise, this would be very difficult, since the Vetus Ordo is the expression of a Tridentine vision of the …更に表示
Yet we Canadians always appear to be extolling their 'free and affordable healthcare' system. I'll have to remember to reassure myself the next time I pay 19 grand for something that it's technically 'free and affordable'(!)
[wherepeteris.com] ByMike Lewis One of the stranger developments surrounding the illicit Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) episcopal consecrations on July 1 was the sudden outbreak of agreement among Catholics across the spectrum that the Society had gone too far — they had committed a schismatic act and had incurred automatic excommunication from the Catholic Church. On the eve of the Écône ceremony, Pope Leo XIV warned the SSPX of the consequences of following through with their plans. On the day after the consecrations, the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith issued the decree of excommunication and its explanatory note confirming that SSPX clergy are in schism. In the days and weeks since, diocesan bishops have warned the faithful not to attend SSPX liturgies and explained the illicit (and sometimes invalid) nature of their sacraments. Very few prominent figures outside the SSPX seem to have taken up their cause. The most conspicuous exceptions — Bishop Athanasius Schneider, who …更に表示
Newcardinal Timothy Radcliffe Here Pictured at the Newvatican In His Sunday Best Simulated a Mess to Celebrate The "Marriage" of Two "Gay" Males Radcliffe Was Surrounded At the "eucharistic" Dinner Table By a Herd of Newbishops And Presbyters "Celebrating" the Blasphemy By now the counterfeit "hierarchy" of Newchurch has been thoroughly infected with apostasy. A case in point: Newcardinal Timothy Radcliffe, who is also Master General of the Newdominicans, on July 2, 2026, openly simulated a Mess to celebrate the "gay" marriage of two males. Sodomy is one of the Four Biblical Sins that Cry out to God for Retribution. A herd of Newbishops and presbyters couldn't wait to crowd around the Novus Ordo eucharistic dinner table. This blasphemy took place at Holy Apostles Church in London, England. Radcliffe was, of course, not excommunicated. The two males feted had engineered the founding of Westminster's "homosexual pastoral ministry." The counterfeit Newcardinal himself delivered the "homily …更に表示
