This is a republished reflection on Pope Saint Gregory the Great, whose feast is commemorated today, Sunday, March 12, 2023, the Third Sunday of Lent, that draws principally upon Pope Saint Pius X's Iucunda Sane, March 12, 1904.

The next original article, which will deal with Jorge Mario Bergoglio's tenth anniversary in his starring role as the universal public face of apostasy, should be published on Tuesday, March 14, 2023, Tuesday of the Third Week of Lent. The newest article, to appear on this site was published yesterday (see The Events of January 6, 2021, Should Never Have Occurred. Period.)

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Pope Saint Gregory the Great, pray for us.

Although we do not have television and I do not watch any program, news or otherwise, via live streaming on the internet, I do follow the news online and make comment upon it when I deem it useful to the relatively few people who access, if only occasionally, this website.

It is in this regard, therefore, that I have written once again about the events of January 6, 2021, the Feast of the Epiphany of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, in light of Tucker Carlson’s providing those who view his television program the ability to watch the unedited surveillance video from that fateful day as that video tells quite a different story than that manufactured by the so-called “January 6 Committee” that engaged in special pleading to “prove” a narrative that was intellectually dishonest.

A great deal of this article has been adapted from a commentary published fourteen months ago as there is no need to “reinvent the wheel.” However, this commentary has added much new information and contains commentary about it that only buttresses the perspective provided a year ago.

There will be another original commentary by Tuesday, March 14, 2022, Tuesday of the Third Week of Lent.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

The title of this commentary says it all.

Although most of the material found in the new commentary is familiar to longtime readers of this website, I am always aware that someone might stumble upon it within the Providence of God on any given day and find what is a reiteration to regular readers some material for them to consider concerning the nature of Holy Mother Church and the reverence, filial respect, love, and obedience that all Catholics owe to a true and legitimate Successor of Saint Peter.

Another commentary will follow in a few days.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint John of God, pray for us.

This article in honor of Saint John of God, whose feast is celebrated today, was written thirteen years ago now. A lot of hard work went into its completion. I believe it to be one a piece that will give great consolation to those who have not as of yet read it.

Saint John of God was little understood during his life. It was the case that even his longtime spiritual director, Saint John of Avila, who knew him fairly well, did not understand his decisions. Saint John of God suffered from all manner of slanders and even beatings in his life. He suffered slanders even up to the point of his own death. It was enough for him to be understood by God. It should be enough for us as well, especially during this time of apostasy and betrayal when so many of us are misunderstood and castigated by relatives and friends and acquaintances as being "outside of the Church" for our refusal to make any concessions to conciliarism or its false shepherds. We should be grateful that we are as misunderstood and hated and calumniated as was Saint John of God!

A new commentary will be published within ten minutes of this posting. Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint John of God, pray for us.

This is a revised and expanded, although still entirely inadequate, commentary on the Feast of Saint Thomas Aquinas, O.P., Tuesday, March 7, 2023.

The next original article should be published within twenty-four hours as it was delayed yesterday by entirely unforeseen circumstances. 

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Thomas Aquinas, O.P., pray for us.

As I noticed a few formatting glitches in the revised and expanded version of this commentary, I have taken the time to go through the text again and indented all material that required such indentation. A few other problems were corrected as well. This commentary and several others are being prepared for publication in book format

A new article should appear by Tuesday, March 7, 2023, the Feast of Saint Thomas Aquinas and the Commemoration of Tuesday in the Second Week of Lent;

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Yes, this is part twenty-one of “Sin: More Deadly Than the Coronavirus.

Another original article, one that deals with the current madness in the mad, mad, mad, mad world of conciliarism, will follow in a few days.

Non-tax-deductible financial gifts are a matter of great urgency now. Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

This is a revised and expanded version of part twenty of “Sin: More Deadly Than the Coronavirus.”

As I have noted before, it is no longer possible to revise articles once posted because the Drupal platform on which this site has existed for nine of its nineteen years has become obsolete, and I lack the technological knowledge (and the time) to move the several thousand articles this site to another platform.

Thus, the commentary has been revised and expanded in light of some additional documentation that came to light since the original commentary was posted.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Margaret of Cortona, pray for us.

Saint Gabriel of the Sorrowful Virgin, pray for us.

The hour is late, and I am very tired.

Herewith is part twenty of "Sin: More Deadly Than the Coronavirus."

Another original article will appear in a few days.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Our annual Lenten journey into the desert begins today,  Ash Wednesday, February 22, 2023, which is also the Commemorations of the Chair of Saint Peter in Antioch and of Saint Paul. Deo gratias!

The season that begins on Ash Wednesday is the time of penance. This is the time to withdraw from the world. This is the time to be earnest about relying upon the ineffable graces that were won for us by the shedding of every single drop of the Most Precious Blood of Our Divine Redeemer, Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, during His Passion and Death and that flow into our sous through the loving hands of His Most Blessed Mother, she who is the Mediatrix of All Graces.

This period of six weeks, four days until Easter Sunday (six weeks, three and one-half days until the Easter Vigil) is nearly one-ninth of an entire calendar year. May we beg Our Lady to help us make the best Lent of our lives as we do not know if it will be our last. Indeed, we do not know whether we will live to see Easter Sunday in this life on Sunday, April 9, 2023.

Part twenty of "Sin: More Dangerous Than the Coronavirus" will be published ether tomorrow or Friday, Thank you.

Our Lady of Dolors, pray for us.
