Although the forty-ninth anniversary of the decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States of America in the cases of Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton was on Saturday, January 22, 2022, the Feast of Saints Vincent and Anastasius, this revised and much expanded commentary is designed to remind the readers of this site that abortion-on-demand did not start with Roe v. Wade and that it will end if this unjust decision is reversed in five months.

The slow but steady march to the surgical execution of children under the cover of the civil law has antecedent roots dating back to certain elements of the Renaissance that set the stage for the Protestant Revolution and the susbequent rise of the welter of Judeo-Masonic political ideologies that have produced the triumph of religious indifferentism and thus of practical atheism as the lowest common denominators in social life.

Part sixteen of "Sin: More Deadly Than the Coronavirus" is being written but may not appear until Sunday, January 30, 2022, the Fourth Sunday after the Epiphany. Thank you for your patience.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Paul, pray for us.

Saint Peter, pray for us.

Saint Polycarp, pray for us.

Today's offering a republished reflection on the Feast of the Conversion of Saint Paul the Apostle.

My annual commentary on the anniversary of the decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States of America in the cases of Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton, January 22, 1973, has undergone an enlargement with substantial revisions. It should be published sometime today, Tuesday, January 25, 2022, the Feast of the Conversion of Saint Paul the Apostle.

Work on part six of "Sin: More Deadly Than the Coronavirus" has been consuming my time as well. I imagine that it will not be until this weekend before the article is ready to be published. Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Paul, pray for us.

Saint Peter, pray for us.

A news report of a few days ago contained the absolute non-news that Joseph Alois Ratzinger/Benedict XVI had presided over a meeting the chancery office of the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising on January 15, 1980, during his masquerade as the “archbishop” of that historic archdiocese during which he approved of the transfer of a known pederast, Father Peter Hullermann. The then “Cardinal” Ratzinger was as impassive about clerical abuse then as he has always been about the horror of any kind of personal sin, including the sins of heresy for which he is so notorious.

This is not news as this news was known in March of 2010, something that two articles from 2010 included in this posting make clear. As one who did the original reporting in The Wanderer in 1997 (Roman Catholic Faithful Accuses Bishop Ryan of Harassment) and 1998 (Witnesses Emerge in Bishop Ryan Case) on the scandalous behavior of the late “Bishop” Daniel Leo Ryan, what was interesting about the fallout of the Ratzinger story in 2010 was some of the very people who were justifiably critical of Ryan and then the likes of Bernard Law in 2002 rose to the defense of Joseph Alois Ratzinger twelve years ago, showing how Summorum Pontificum blinded many otherwise rational Catholics into either defending their “man” in situations such as the Hullermann case or, more frequently, turning a blind eye and keeping mute about their “man’s serial violations of the First and Second Commandments.

A new commentary, one focusing on the forty-ninth anniversary of the dreadful decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States of America in the cases of Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton, January 22, 1973, should appear by Monday, January 24, the Feast of Saint Timothy. 

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

The late President Ronald Wilson Reagan once called then United States Senator Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr.. a "smooth but pure demagogue." As one secular commentator noted recently, Biden is no longer "smooth" but he will forever remain a demagogue.

Then again, demagoguery and totalitarianism are the natural end results of nautralism. Naturally.

Another original article will appear in a few days as physical strength permits during my continued recovery from the surgery on December 15, 2021, to repair my fractured right hip. Thank you for your patience and understanding. 

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Those who read yesterday's commentary will undestand the title of this new commentary, which is about Jorge Mario Bergoglio's demotion of Giacomo Morandi, the secretary of the so-called Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, (CDF) because the latter is said to be the one who authored a negative reply to a dubium concerning the "blessing" of "unions" between those steeped in sins of perversity that cry out to Heaven for vengeance.

The irony of this is that Bergoglio himself approved the the CDF's negative reply to such "blessings" before he began to undermine it almost immediately after it was issued publicly ten months ago. Bergoglio is indeed a mean, ugly schnook who takes no prisoners, a man who can, quite correctly, denounce "cancel culture" one day while he is simultaneously cancelling a man who, though he used conciliarspeak, more or less called sin by its proper name. What a piece of work that octagenarian revolutionary is. 

The next commentary will focus principally on the demagogic speech delivered by President in Name Only Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr., in Atlanta, Georgia, about "saving democracy" by the means of ensuring the same kind of chicanery that was used by means of "consent agreements" in 2020. Translation: "Democracy" means not letting those who are opposed to the statist/globalist agenda win elections because anyone and everyone who opposes this "revealed" agenda is a racist who must be denounced for merely opposing rhetorically ideas that are false, unconstitutional, and advances the institutionalization of one party rule replete with appartchiks who equate criticism of them as an exercise in "domestic terrorism" that must be monitored constantly,

As has been noted on so many hundreds upon hundreds of commentaries on this site, this is only the logical result of a governmental system founded on false, anti-Incarnational and Pelagian principles. I have said this over and over, and I will say it yet again in the next commentary, which may take up to four or five days to complete. 

Kyrie eleison!

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Although I do not seek out news from the Vatican in its conciliar captivity, my "smart phone" sends me stories now and again that prompt me to do what I would prefer not to almost as I would prefer never to break a hip again as I did four weeks ago now: namely, to write yet again about Jorge Mario Bergoglio, whose speech to the diplomatic corps on Monday, January 10, 2022, contained some remarkable hypocrisy about "cancel culture" and showed Bergoglio to be a complete creature of the pharamaceutical-elitist-globalist disinformation campaign about the gene therapy jabs.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

The motormouth from Argentina just won’t quit his gratuitous attacks on believing Catholics, saving a bit of space in his “homily” for the Feast of the Epiphany of Our Lord Jesus Christ on Thursday, January 6, 2022, to do so for what seems like the fortieth time in the past month ago.

Yet it is, of course, that no one is more “closed-in-on-himself” or “self-referential” as the rigid octogenarian apostate dressed up in white to look like a “pope.”

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Today is the Feast of the Holy Family of Nazareth and the Commemoration of the First Sunday after the Epiphany within the Octave of the Epiphany. 

Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ chose to become Man in His Most Blessed Mother's Virginal and Immaculate Womb by the power of the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity, God the Holy Ghost, and place Himself, the Co-Equal and Co-Eternal Son of God the Father, under subjection to mere creatures His Most Blessed Mother, the fairest flower of our race, and to Good Saint Joseph, his foster-father.

The subjection of the God-Man to the authority of His Most Blessed Mother and his foster-father, whom He had chosen from all eternity to provide Him with the earthly love and care and stewardship of a father seeking only to please God with his every thought, word and deed, teaches us that we, who came from families and who, in many instances, are raising families of our own, must be subject to all legitimate authority, duly constituted, in all things that do not pertain to sinful commands. Children are supposed to learn this subjection in the household from their tenderest days, seeing in their fathers the image of Saint Joseph and in their mothers the image of Our Lady.

Children are supposed to realize that God in the very Flesh obeyed His creatures in the Holy Family of Nazareth. So must they.

Parents must, for their part, foster an atmosphere within the family of selflessness, charity, forgiveness and joy, centering the family's life on daily assistance at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass (if at all possible), regular time spent in prayer before the Blessed Sacrament, the daily recitation of Our Lady's Most Holy Rosary, supplications to Our Lady's Most Chaste Spouse, Saint Joseph, home enthronement to the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Total Consecration to Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ through the same Immaculate Heart of Mary, Scriptural reading and family reading time, especially about the lives of the saints, and a refusal to participate in the rot of popular culture.

This requires sacrifice and the willingness to be misunderstood, calumniated and rejected even by one's own family members as we protect our children from those cultural currents that come from the devil and are designed to lead each of us to Hell for all eternity. To eschew worldliness one must be ready to embrace the Holy Poverty of the Holy Family of Nazareth, detaching oneself from the material acquisitiveness of our consumer society, shaped by Judeo-Calvinist materialism, and to live in light of First Things and Last Things as we week to acquire the only thing that matters: Sanctifying Grace in this life and eternal life in the glory of the Beatific Vision of Father, Son and Holy Ghost in Heaven. 

The next original article will be posted by tomorrow morning, Monday, January 10, 2022, and a revised article, If It Is In The Acta Apostolicae Sedis, It is "Official" Teaching, which discusses, at least in passing, Jorge Mario Bergoglio's most recent blasphemies against the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, was posted late on Saturday, January 8, 2022.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, we love you, save souls!

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, pray for us now and in death's agony.

A blessed Feast of the Holy Family of Nazareth to you all.

This article was written originally over six years ago now and has been revised for republication at this time in light of Jorge Mario Bergoglio’s repetition of his blasphemy against the Holy Family during his Angelus address on Sunday, December 26, 2021, which was the date on which the Feast of the Holy Family is celebrated in the Novus Ordo world.

The purpose of this revised posting at this time is to illustrate that, despite all his talk of being “open” to the “spirit,” Jorge Mario Bergoglio is nothing other than a rigid ideologue who is compelled to repeat the same heresies and blasphemies over and over and over again as though he can convince others of them by the sheer force of his revolutionary will.

As is the case with so many ideologues, Jorge Mario Bergoglio’s criticisms of various strawmen are actually unintentional self-descriptions as no one is more “closed-in-on-himself” than the octogenarian apostate from Argentina.

I will have a commentary on the Argentine fiend's Feast of the Epiphany attack on believing Catholics no later than Monday, January 10, 2022. Thank you.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, bless us now and in death’s holy agony.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, I love you. Save souls.

The adversary mocks everything to do with the true Faith, most especially the major feast days of Our Lord and Our Lady. It is not for nothing that the first Congress of the United States of America assembled on December 25, 1789.

Such was the pull of the “new world order” then, and such is was its pull ninety-eight years later when an act of Congress established January 6, the date on which is celebrated the Feast of the Epiphany of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour  Jesus Christ, as the date on which the certified electoral votes of the states would be counted by the Vice President of the United States of America in his capacity as President of the United State Senate before a joint meeting of the two houses of Congress.

As is well known, the events of January 6, 2021, which were the subject of an extensive commentary and analysis on this site nearly a year ago (Put Not Your Trust in Princes: In the Children of Men in Who There is No Salvation), will be used by the demagogues who belong to the organized crime family of the false opposite of the naturalist “left” in perpetuity to character assassinate anyone who disagrees with their “infallible” agenda of statist totalitarianism as being guilty of “insurrectionist” loyalties.

Ah, but what happened on January 6, 2021, was not an “insurrection” but a riot, and a riot that was probably encouraged by agents provocateur who are not being arrested or prosecuted despite the fact that their identifies are well known. What is virtually unknown is that Minister of Injustice Merrick Garland refuses to deny that some of these people were actually working on behalf of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in one capacity or another.

Mind you, this is not to indemnify anything that happened on January 6, 2021, especially not to indemnify former President Donald John Trump for misleading his supporters into thinking that then Vice President Michael Richard Pence had any constitutional or legal authority to overturn the certified slates of electors in those states where election irregularities aplenty undoubtedly occurred.

Nothing is more important on January 6 than the Feast of the Epiphany of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, Who was made manifest to the Gentile Kings of this passing world as a humble Babe they knew to be the King of Kings, and the fact that the former president fell into a trap that had been set for him by his very real and determined political enemies by speaking on a day when the attention of the world should be on the first of the three great epiphanies of Our Lord speaks volumes about the willingness of many to put their trust in princes, in the children of men in whom there is no hope of salvation.

Believing Catholics must not put their trust in the princes of this passing world, but only in the Prince of Peace, the very King of Kings Who is meant to be recognize by every man and by every nation as the King Whose eternal laws bind us all and Whose graces are the only means by which men can save their souls and know a just social order premised upon a due regard for First and Last Things in all that pertains to the good of souls.

Finally, Blabbermouth Jorge was it again yesterday as he expressed his vile hatred for those Catholics who want to worship in a “dead religion.” This man never gives up his seething hatred for true Catholic Faith and Worship, something that I point out in G.I.R.M. Warfare: The Conciliar Church's Unremitting Warfare Against Catholic Faith and Worship. An appropriate commentary will follow in a few days, if not sooner.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saints Caspar, Melchior, and Balthazar, pray for us.
