Bishops’ Indemnities Revisited
The Epoch Times recently estimated that 17,000,000 people have been killed by the "Covid-Vaccine." I believe that number is an extremely conservative estimate. Whether high or low, we now know that the injection causing so many deaths was not in fact a vaccine, but rather gene therapy made from aborted babies. It was released under emergency-use authorization by the FDA, and still has not been approved. Many Catholics died after taking it, including my own mother after taking a third dose. I wrote about her tragedy but good death here last year. Why did so many Catholics take it? Like most Americans of other religions, Catholics listened to their physicians and the mainstream media. But they also listened to the Vatican and their local clergy. I knew this was going to happen. Back in 2020 (when my mother was still [...]
VLX 154: Mt 26:57-58. “Peter Followed At a Distance.”
-Donate: https://www.padreperegrino.org/donate/ -Telegram: https://t.me/padreperegrino -STV: https://spiritustv.com/@padreperegrino *** Gospel: “Then those who had seized Jesus led him to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had gathered. And Peter was following Him at a distance, as far as the courtyard of the high priest, and going inside he sat with the guards to see the end.”
The “Universal Call to Holiness” Was Always There
Vatican II's Lumen Gentium's chapter five is titled "Universal Call to Holiness" and it includes this sentence: "Therefore in the Church, everyone whether belonging to the hierarchy, or being cared for by it, is called to holiness." By "cared for by it," it simply means lay people. In other words, lay folks are also called to holiness. Obviously, there is nothing wrong with that sentence. But it's also super obvious, so something else is behind it. What is it? I don't know, but there's an old Protestant myth that Catholic priests and nuns told lay people they're not called to holiness. Have modernists run with this in Vatican II? We will see below that the "universal call to holiness" to lay people was always there within the Catholic Church, so at the very least, Catholics need to stop acting like [...]
The Grey Wolves of Modernist Ambiguity
p/c North American Whitetail. Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will recognize them by their fruits.—Mt 7:15-16. Many traditional Catholics today rip on the ultra-leftists because it's easy to knock out of the park really low-hanging fruit like "Clown Masses" or social-justice warriors to oppose Eucharistic rallies because it detracts from the poor or even pro-abortion "Catholics." Trads tackling people that far left on the political and theological spectrum are after "easy likes" on Twitter and Instagram. The bigger problem is that neo-conservative (non-traditional) priests who may be found making pro-life statements or be seen headlining at a national "Eucharistic Congress" will often give heretical answers for nearly every doctrinal question except those two (pro-life and True Presence.) In other words, it's not good enough to say "Don't [...]

A Nanny-Church to Match the Nanny-State
Recently, Archbishop Viganò wrote, "Change – or better still, aggiornamento – has been so much at the center of the conciliar narrative that it has been the hallmark of Vatican II and has posited this assembly as the terminus post quem that sanctions the end of the ancien régime – the regime of the 'old religion,' of the 'old Mass,' of the 'pre-council' – and the beginning of the 'conciliar church,' with its 'new mass' and the substantial relativization of all dogma." Now, before everyone calls Viganò a "schismatic" for simply putting those two words "conciliar church" in scare quotes, we have to realize that some important clergy (who have never been called "schismatic" by modernist mainstream Catholics) also indicated that a counterfeit-church would eventually ape itself in place of the Catholic Church and ostensibly even front as the Catholic [...]

How To Pray for the Enemies of Holy Mother Church
My post-Mass meditation usually comes from a 19th century book of Jesuit Meditations. It's a phenomenal book. The meditation following Sunday's Mass was about enduring persecutions in light of the Sermon on the Mount. Before we get to the topic at hand, How To Pray for the Enemies of Holy Mother Church, I want to highlight a few other parts of Sunday's meditation on enduring persecutions. One of the most astonishing insights the anonymous Jesuit author made is that false-accusations make us already like Christ on earth. It reads: "And besides, is not the glory of being thus made like to the Son of God on earth before we join Him in heaven a sufficient cause for holy joy and pride?"—Practical Meditations p. 443. Christ's tells us that even our love on earth is supposed to reflect that of God [...]
VLX 153: Mt 26:47-56. “Twelve Legions of Angels.”
-Donate: https://www.padreperegrino.org/donate/ -Telegram: https://t.me/padreperegrino -STV: https://spiritustv.com/@padreperegrino Gospel: While he was still speaking, Judas came, one of the twelve, and with him a great crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the elders of the people. Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “The one I will kiss is the man; seize him.” And he came up to Jesus at once and said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” And he kissed him. Jesus said to him, “Friend, do what you came to do.” Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and seized him. And behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his ear. Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back into its place. For all [...]
Trump Shot But Alive
This evening, on the 13th of July 2024, President Trump was shot in the ear at a rally in Butler, PA. It was obviously a failed assassination attempt. Trump got up triumphantly as seen in the picture above. One America News reports: "Butler county district attorney Richard Goldinger said the shooter is dead after injuring former President Trump, killing one audience member and injuring another in the shooting." Here's the most important tweets I have seen so far: Impeached. Arrested. Convicted. Shot. Still standing. pic.twitter.com/ys50YJfdyZ — Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) July 13, 2024 Joe Biden and the Democrats don’t get to wiggle out of this with half hearted statements. They framed Trump as a modern Hitler. They framed him as a danger to society. They lied about his policies to incite fear. They framed his supporters as terrorists. They own this. [...]
