"The St. Gallen Mafia: Exposing the Secret" of Francis

 https://www.amazon.com/St-Gallen-Mafia-Exposing-Reformist/dp/1505122872

 "According to this book, Francis and his ilk have a goal of "decentralizing" church administration - pushing decisions down to the local level rather than the pope carrying more of the load. This is why he is pushing synods and synodality, where the bishops get together to groups to decide how to handle questions such as divorce, communion, women priests, married priests, etc. However, what the synod decides would depend on who gets invited to the synod. In other words, invitations go out only to those thought to be reliable on whatever side sends the invitations (the pope sent out the invitations to the current Synod on Synodality). It's kind of like voting in Chicago - you can vote for anyone as long as it's a democrat.

This biggest issue I have with synods and synodality is that the pope is still the one making the decisions, but he's not paying attention to anyone who disagrees with him. In the recent motu proprio, Traditionis Custodes, which limited the use of the traditional Latin mass (in language that many Catholics found harsh), according to reporting by Diane Montagne, 2/3's of the bishops who expressed an opinion on the TLM were favorably inclined to it. So this means that the pope is only ok with synods and synodality if they agree with him? Otherwise, he will overrule you?"

Vox Cantoris vs. Aqua

The Catholic Monitor commenter Aqua had this to say to the Vox Cantoris website: Aqua said… Fred, your topic here reminds me of a dust-up, a few days ago, on Vox Cantoris. He asserted that it is our duty as Christians to wear masks to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass if the government tells us we must, or they will close our Churches. My response to him was that I find it inconceivable that an orthodox Catholic, such as himself, would ever submit to unjust dictates from secular government over how we approach Our Lord in Holy Mass. My response to him was that the Mass belongs to Catholics and we decide, within the bounds of Tradition, and in accord with the Word of Jesus, how we conduct ourselves in Holy Mass. Only one authority prevails over Mass and that is our God and the Sacred Tradition given by Him to guide us in all times and places. Understand, there is nothing inherently wrong with wearing a mask to Mass. But there is EVERYTHING wrong with wearing a symbol...

Might Biden be a Liar & Predator like McCarrick?

September 15, 2020   Everyone knows that sexual predator ex-cardinal Theodore McCarrick is a liar. His whole life was a lie of betrayal of the most sacred vows he took and the violation of the moral tenets of the Catholic faith which he desecrated. Most people don't realize that part of this desecration of lies included lying for "gravely sinful" Democrats like Joe Biden. McCarrick protected Biden when then head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (later to be Pope Benedict XVI) wrote that bishops were not to admit to Communion politicians like "gravely sinful" Biden who supports the killing of unborn babies. McCarrick lied for politicians like Biden by ignoring the important parts of the Ratzinger letter and told bishops not to ignore the Catholic Church law.  Last year, Fr. Robert Morey denied Holy Communion to the “gravely sinful” Biden following a "2004 decree signed jointly by the bishops of ...
