"Father" James Martin has announced that, after meeting with Robert Francis Prevost/Leo XIV, the currently reigning universal public face of apostasy will continue the late and quite demonic Jorge Mario Bergoglio's "inclusiveness" towards those steeped in sins of unnatural vice that cry out to Heaven for vengeance. 

While the outrage about this is understandble, less understandable is the fact that very few Catholics seem to be concerned about Robert Francis Prevost./Leo XIV's many defections from Catholic Faith, Worship, and Morals, defections that he has shared with each of his six immediate predecessors in this is of apostasy and betrayal.

There is an appendix reprising material from an article published on September 3, 2009, that I believe summarizes the connundrum faced by "conservative" or traditional Catholics who are within the structures of the counterfeit church of conciliarism in the belief that they are in the Catholic Church in two different fictional colloquies. 

Another new article should appear by Thursday, Septemer 4, 2025, the Feast, in some places, of Saint Rose of Viterbo. 

Finally, Mrs. Randy Engel, the Chairman of the US Coalition for Life, has sent an appeal to help the Catholics of the Holy Land: US Coalition for Life Appeal to Help the Catholics of the Holy Land.)

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Stephen of Hungary, pray for us.

This is a revised and enlarged reflection on Saint Stephen, King of Hungary, who was zealous to convert pagans to the true Faith and thus establish the peace and justice of Christ the King in his land. He is yet another contrast to concilairism's false doctrines of "religious liberty" and "separation of Church and State."'

A new commentary will be posted within ten minutes.

This is a another examination of the harm being done by the Wuhan Virus jabs and the refusal of so many to face the facts.

There has been much mockery of prayer and its power over the past three days.

This commentary reminds readers of this site that the mockery of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, His true Church, Our Lady, and even prayer itself is as old as the American founding itself. The commentary then discusses how we, as Catholics, must pray with faith, hope, charity, and an abiding confidence.

Our Lady of Consolation, pray for us.

Our Lady Health of the Sick, pray for us.

Saint Rose of Lima, pray for us.

Saints Felix and Adauctus, pray for us.

This is a revised and enlarged version of my reflection on the life of Saint Rose of Lima, a member of the Third Order of Penance of the Order of Preachers of Saint Dominic de Guzman.

Among many other works in her devout life of prayer and austere penances, Saint Rose, who lived among a cluster of saints in Lima, Peru, exhorted the people of Lima to gather in their churches and pray their Rosaries to turn back a pending invasion of their city by a fleet of those virulent anti-Catholics, the Dutch Calvinists. Those hideous people with their diabolical beliefs that have nothing at all to do with Christianity turned back as a result of the Rosaries that were prayed to repel them in their designs to invade Lima and to sack Catholic churches and to desecrated the Most Blessed Sacrament images of the Mother of God.

May we pray to Saint Rose of Lima so that we will remain faithful to the daily recitation of Our Lady's Most Holy Rosary as the powerful weapon, after Holy Mass itself, to turn back the enemies of Christ the King in the world and in the counterfeit church of conciliarism.

A new commentary will be published within a few moments. Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Rose of Lima, pray for us.

Saints Felix and Adauctus, pray for us.

The State of Israel's continued genocide against the Palestinians of Gaza has now reached a fever pitch, and one Israeli official had the chutzpah to say the following out loud recently:

Eli Cohen, a minister in Israel’s high-level security cabinet, has said the Israeli operation in Gaza City should reduce the city to rubble. “Gaza City itself should be exactly like Rafah, which we turned into a city of ruins,” he told Channel 14, a right-wing television station, this month. Some of Israel’s European allies have condemned its plans for an expanded offensive.  (A Gaza City Neighborhood Is Now a Wasteland, Satellite Images Show.)

As we know, however, there is noting “gradual” or “targeted” about the Israeli destruction of Gaza as such destruction is based on total annihilation.

May Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ have mercy on us all as we pray to His Most Blessed Mother for the conversion of all non-Catholics to the true Church and as we make reparation for our sins that have worsened the state of the world in general and the state of the Church Militant here on earth in this time of apostasy and betrayal.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint John the Baptist, pray for us.

Saint Sabina, pray for us.

Today is the Feast of the Decollation of Saint John the Baptist and the Commemoration of Saint Sabina. I am republishing a revised reflection on this feast.  

The next original article on this site will be part twenty-four of the occasional series, "Benedictus Qui Venit in Nomine Domini," about the continuing, indiscriminate barbarism being practiced by the Zionist Israelis upon all Palestinians. It should be published about five minutes afer this revised commentary is posted. 

Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us now and at the hour of our death.

Saint John the Baptist, pray for us.

Saint Sabina, pray for us..

This is a brief reflection on the Feast of Saint Augustine of Hippo, to which Father Francis X. Weninger's reflection about the great convert to the Holy Faith has been appended.

For the moment, though, I want to include the sixth of Father Wenginger's practical considerations on the life of Saint Augustine of Hippo:

VI. From a hardened heretic, St. Augustine became not only a fervent Catholic, but also a teacher and protector of the true faith. The gift of the Catholic faith he prized above everything, and offered frequently to God most humble thanks for it. "There is no greater treasure," he writes, "no greater honor, no greater good, in this world, than the Catholic faith." From the period of his conversion, he was eager in his endeavors to convert the heretics from their errors, and bring them back into the pale of the true Church, both, by word of mouth, and also by his pen. His most fervent wish was, that all might be Catholics. May you esteem the gift of the Catholic faith more than you have heretofore done. Give thanks to God that He has bestowed this gift upon you. Seek, by words as well as by a truly Christian life, to convert others to the true faith. And, finally, learn from St. Augustine, how you should pass the time which God gives you, when he sends you sickness before your end. Guard yourself against frivolous and idle conversations, do not permit them at your sick bed. Use the time to repent of your iniquities. Let others read to you from a devout book, that you may constantly be occupied with good thoughts. The last days of your life are precious; use them rightly; they never return. Cease not to repent of your sins and to pray God to forgive you, until your last breath; for, the words of St. Augustine are and ever will remain true: " No Christian, however piously he may have lived, should die without repentance." (Father Francis X. Weninger, S.J., On the Feast of Saint Augustin of Hippo, August 28.)

We must always treasure our Catholic Faith and never lose our zeal for helping to bring non-Catholics to the bosom of Holy Mother Church, to correct error in a spirit of a true love of God and for the eternal and temporal good of others, and to never give into any kind of naturalistic view about our own lives or the events of society. We are to view everything through the eyes of the true Faith at all times without any exception whatsoever. Keep it Catholic. Keep it Catholic all the time.

A commentary about yesterday's tragic shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, was posted early last evening and underwent a few revisions thereafter: In the Direct Grip of the Adversary.

Work on another original article has begun and should be completed by late this afternoon.

Our Lady of the Rosary,  pray for us.

Saint Augustine of Hippo, pray for us.

Saint Hermes, pray for us.

This is a brief commentary about the tragic events that took place this morning at Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, as a gender-confused young man. Robert Westman, opened fire through the church’s stained-glass windows and took aim at school children at what a purported offering of Holy Mass, killing two, wounding fourteen other children, and also three adults.

Please pray for the souls of the murdered children, who were above the age of reason, and the consolation of their grieving parents, for the recovery of the wounded, and for the needs of all who have been affected by yet another mindless tragedy in a world where has rejected and mocked Christ the King and targets the innocent preborn for execution by chemical and surgical means every day under cover of the civil law.

This commentary was revised in several places around 9:05 p.m. on the Feast of Saint Joseph Calasanctius.

May Our Lord have mercy on us all.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Joseph Calasanctius, pray for us.

This is a very long study dealing with the random acts of nihilistic violence and epidemic of self-annihilation by euthanasia that is taking place with ever greater frequency here in the so-called “civilized West” that has taken several days to complete.

Considerable space is to Hilaire Belloc’s 1931 essay on “The New Paganism” near the end of this commentary.

A new commentary may not appear until Thursday, August 28, 2025, the Feast of Saint Augustine of Hippo, but I will do my very best to try to get it done for posting by Wednesday, August 27, 2025, the Feast of Saint Joseph Calasanctius.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Pope Saint Zephyrinus, pray for us.
