So, here we are the day after the scandal involving Trump posting a picture of himself and as Jesus and with

28 seconds

a well angry message to the pope attached to it. Well, not to it explicitly, but

35 seconds

earlier in the day he had sent he had said some pretty what some thought were unsavory things to the pope. And um I

44 seconds

challenge people to look at what he actually said and ask if he was actually wrong factually about those things. Tone

50 seconds

aside, many people who every day critique the Pope for things he does,

57 seconds

including on exactly the things Trump said, well, they couldn't really disagree or some chose to ignore the question. But there was an update on

1 minute, 6 seconds

this and I'm going to start showing you the this a series of events that happened because some of you only saw the end of it. But I'm going to show you a series of events. So this was just

1 minute, 15 seconds

this was posted to X. A series of screenshots from Truth Social.

1 minute, 20 seconds

Those are his followers who pay to use that website.

1 minute, 25 seconds

Talk about how they regretted voting for him. How that he is mocking Jesus. some calling him the antichrist, which is by

1 minute, 32 seconds

the way theologically illiterate. Trump is not the antichrist. He does not fit the theological bill. Does not fit the bill as taught by the church all

1 minute, 40 seconds

throughout history. Does not fit the bill according to what we what little we can glean from sacred scripture about the man of sin. He doesn't fit the bill.

1 minute, 49 seconds

I know that's an unpopular take,

1 minute, 51 seconds

including from some self-described traditional Catholics who should know better, but not saying what he did wasn't was good. Definitely not saying

2 minutes

that, but he's getting just hazed himself here on his own website. That had to be get his attention.

2 minutes, 9 seconds

So, what we ended up seeing play out yesterday was well, first as Caitlyn Collins, who is a generally not

2 minutes, 16 seconds

trustworthy person from the from uh the from the fake news network itself, CNN,

2 minutes, 22 seconds

posting a screenshot and saying it appears as if Trump has deleted his post portraying himself as Jesus after facing some backlash from his own supporters.

2 minutes, 32 seconds

Some is putting it mildly. He got a lot of backlash from even his own supporters. I saw many Catholics on going online saying they were not going

2 minutes, 40 seconds

to vote in the midterms or they were not going to vote for anybody affiliated with Make America Great Again until Trump apologizes. Well, the problem is

2 minutes, 48 seconds

with that is of course as we all know and including his biggest supporters will probably tell you because honestly

2 minutes, 55 seconds

a lot of his biggest supporters will give you a fairly honest take on his uh we'll say character. I don't think I've ever seen Trump apologize for anything.

3 minutes, 4 seconds

Maybe his family members have, but I don't I don't think I've ever seen it.

3 minutes, 7 seconds

Let me know in the comments if you can think of a time he actually apologized for something.

3 minutes, 13 seconds

So, this was posted by a a MAGA influencer uh from Right Line News saying, "Just now, President Trump

3 minutes, 21 seconds

responds to backlash over the now deleted post." And I'll let the president say what he said here himself.

3 minutes, 27 seconds

It's I don't know if you believe what he says here and I'll give you kind of an odd take on that but here we go. President

3 minutes, 35 seconds

himself foremost straight and various other things. Do you have any questions?

3 minutes, 40 seconds

Mr. President, did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ?

3 minutes, 45 seconds

Well, it wasn't depicted. It was me. I I did post it and I thought it was me as a doctor and had to do with Red Cross as a

3 minutes, 53 seconds

Red Cross worker there which we support and uh only the fake news could come up with that one. So I I had uh I just

4 minutes, 1 second

heard about it and I said how did they come up with that? It's supposed to be me as a doctor making people better and

4 minutes, 8 seconds

I do make people better. I make people uh a lot better. as an example, the 11,000. I understand your husband's going through a treatment.

4 minutes, 18 seconds

And you know, he goes on, now I want you to take a look at that picture. I've never seen a doctor from the Red Cross depicted that way.

4 minutes, 26 seconds

So, do you believe him?

4 minutes, 30 seconds

I I don't I Let me show you what one uh why this is kind of a silly thing to

4 minutes, 38 seconds

say, but I'll also give you I'll also tell you why I'm actually kind of inclined to believe him. And it's not

4 minutes, 45 seconds

for a good reason. It's not for a making excuses for Trump reason.

4 minutes, 50 seconds

Just a regular Catholic doesn't follow me. I don't follow him. I saw this in the wild on X saying, "Ah yes, all Red Cross workers and doctors, split the

4 minutes, 58 seconds

heavens, call down angels, hold the power of the universe in their hands,

5 minutes, 2 seconds

dress in a white robe, and heal with a touch." How in how in the world would anyone ever confuse that image with Jesus?

5 minutes, 11 seconds

And he's responding to it right there from Mr. Doert's clip. So again, I've never seen a doctor depicted that way.

5 minutes, 18 seconds

Others shared images of um of founding fathers depicted as kind of angels and saints in heaven. I got a problem with

5 minutes, 25 seconds

those images too, but they weren't depicted as Jesus. So, do do you do you believe him?

5 minutes, 34 seconds

And I will say why I'm inclined to at least tempted to believe him and that's this.

5 minutes, 41 seconds

Mr. Trump is not the most sophisticated person when it comes to religion.

5 minutes, 48 seconds

Look at who his chief his chief theological adviser is. Paula White,

5 minutes, 54 seconds

someone who many people think is an actual witch. The way she's actually behaving.

6 minutes, 1 second

Prosperity gospel preacher starts citing gibber speaking in gibberish they call tongues. The Bible makes clear that the

6 minutes, 9 seconds

gift of tongues is praying in a language you don't know but others around you can understand. Pretty clear if you read the Bible. So, I don't know what she's doing,

6 minutes, 18 seconds

but there's a an American heresy I don't see enough people ever ever comment on.

6 minutes, 24 seconds

And it's and I'm not talking Protestantism here. I'm not, you know,

6 minutes, 28 seconds

not, you know, take taking making hot takes here against Protestants for once.

6 minutes, 33 seconds

The American heresy that's held by a lot of people and you see this in all the polling is this.

6 minutes, 41 seconds

I think his god is real. Jesus was awesome. Died for my sins. Oh, have I ever picked up a Bible? Nah, don't need to.

6 minutes, 50 seconds

Have I ever, you know, spent a time reading it? Oh, I've turned a page a couple of times, maybe. But he died for my sins. Easter's pretty awesome. Jesus

6 minutes, 58 seconds

is pretty awesome, and I'm going to go to heaven because I think Jesus is pretty awesome, and I'm a good person.

7 minutes, 5 seconds

It's kind of the quintessential American heresy when it comes to religion. And I know it pretty well because for a long time on my road to conversion, I was

7 minutes, 13 seconds

there when I was kind of on the political left a little bit, not as much as other people in Portland, Oregon, and often jokingly calling myself a token

7 minutes, 22 seconds

conservative in the room wherever I was because I was kind of a normal Democrat in those long ancient days. Now, days

7 minutes, 30 seconds

when I look back, it's like I look back in horror at the things I believed.

7 minutes, 34 seconds

It's only through the grace of Christ and the teachings of the church taught by someone who believes them that you can pull people out of this.

7 minutes, 42 seconds

But it is a pernitious American heresy.

7 minutes, 46 seconds

And knowing that Mr. Trump is maybe sophisticated when it comes to business sense, maybe he's got a keen eye on foreign policy, at least he did in his first term, a bunch of other things,

7 minutes, 57 seconds

not so much on religion.

8 minutes, 2 seconds

But does that excuse what he did? uh virtually everybody thinks that he should learn to restrain himself on on X

8 minutes, 10 seconds

and not or on Truth Social, not have hot takes in the middle of the night. Let me give you another example. One Peter 5,

8 minutes, 15 seconds

who I think is too moderate when it comes to the church in the crisis, has this to say it. He says, "Mr. Trump has now deleted the post and claimed that it

8 minutes, 22 seconds

was meant to be a promotion of the Red Cross and a depiction of himself as a doctor. We are grateful that the president has not defended his rash actions. And if his explanation is true,

8 minutes, 31 seconds

it is also true that the image itself is sinful per se according to the words of St. Thomas. Unlike Mander, active

8 minutes, 39 seconds

scandal is always a sin in the person who gives scandal since either what he does is a sin or if it only has the appearance of sin, it should always be

8 minutes, 47 seconds

left undone out of that love for our neighbor which binds each one to be solicitous for his neighbor's spiritual welfare. So that if he persists in doing it, he acts against charity.

8 minutes, 58 seconds

This also applies to the, you know, Pope Leo Pakamama stuff. Even having the appearance of scandal is a problem. It's why so many of us wanted some kind of clarification from Rome. But of course,

9 minutes, 9 seconds

we get criticized for that because we should either be a recognizing Leo is so much better than Francis somehow or that

9 minutes, 17 seconds

it's not what we should be talking about. We should be screaming about Jesus's ethnic kinsmen instead all day, every day.

9 minutes, 24 seconds

But even the appearance of scandal like that is a problem. And so it should be repented of. And this is why if you are a Trump supporter, you should pray for him. If you are not a Trump supporter,

9 minutes, 33 seconds

you should pray for him. There is no excuse to not pray for his conversion. You don't have to like him for it.

9 minutes, 40 seconds

Jesus told us to pray even for enemies.

9 minutes, 42 seconds

That kind of makes me wonder where where the exception is for people we shouldn't pray for. The Notradam or Notre Dame College Republicans said this.

9 minutes, 53 seconds

Regarding this post, it's possible to hold all the following views. The Trump administration is badly miscalculated with the war in Iran, which was not in

10 minutes

American interests. The Pope is right to push for peace, and we support him in this endeavor. The president's post against the Pope was both incoherent and

10 minutes, 8 seconds

imprudent. The Pope and the clergy have repeatedly inserted themselves into American politics in a matter that is unprecedented during the modern era,

10 minutes, 16 seconds

particularly in their attempts to impede immigration enforcement. No such attention was ever afforded to the actions of Biden administration. Despite

10 minutes, 23 seconds

flagrant violations of Catholic teaching on the uh well the various sins of the flesh and the ideology behind them. If the clergy choose to directly involve

10 minutes, 32 seconds

themselves in politics, they are not above criticism for doing so. And it's worth reminding yourselves that papal infallibility does not generally apply to the pope's of political opinions.

10 minutes, 43 seconds

That's the update on this and it serves as a good segue. I know I didn't expect to take 10 minutes to give you an update

10 minutes, 50 seconds

on this, but here we are. The Pope's in Algeria and this is a video from Catholic news

10 minutes, 59 seconds

agency. You know that radical traditionalist outlet. Here he is visiting uh the great temple of the crescent moon worshippers in Alers.

11 minutes, 10 seconds

Watch this carefully. What do you notice about it? The entire time he was in their temple,

11 minutes, 16 seconds

he had his hands crossed on his chest over his pectoral cross.

11 minutes, 21 seconds

Christ on the cross is offensive to the group he was visiting.

11 minutes, 26 seconds

Leo was telling us that his message there when visiting was that Catholics

11 minutes, 33 seconds

and Christians more broadly and that particularly pagan religion that claims to be Abrahamic can live together in

11 minutes, 40 seconds

peace. If you know the history of Algeria,

11 minutes, 44 seconds

that is insane. That's an insane place to say that the history of Algeria is soaked in the blood of martyrs.

11 minutes, 51 seconds

Today, Christians there live in peace,

11 minutes, 54 seconds

if you want to call it that, be by not being able legally speaking to preach the gospel. The only place you can hear

12 minutes, 2 seconds

the gospel is inside of a Catholic church. And that is it. You are not allowed to teach the faith at all to non-believers.

12 minutes, 10 seconds

you were not allowed to engage in the great commission in that country. That's not peace.

12 minutes, 16 seconds

That's where he chose to give that message.

12 minutes, 21 seconds

And that serves as a a good backdrop for this because I saw this going viral and it struck me as very familiar.

12 minutes, 28 seconds

This is a Novasorda watch reposting something that from an account from an Eastern Catholic account saying

12 minutes, 37 seconds

Cardinal Fernandez quoting him for many centuries the church went in another direction developing a philosophy and a morality full of classifications in

12 minutes, 45 seconds

which it ordered who can receive communion and who cannot putting labels on them. Terrible that this happened to

12 minutes, 51 seconds

us. Francis changed that and it's got the video of him saying all that. these classifications on who can and can't

13 minutes

receive communion. Well, those would be people living in mortal sin. And then we had classifications on different kinds of mortal sin, you know, adultery,

13 minutes, 8 seconds

bearing false witness, you know, that kind of stuff. you know, little things that the Bible condemns and who can receive communion and who cannot because

13 minutes, 16 seconds

sacred scripture tests as does the capital T tradition of the church and magisterial authority that if you eat

13 minutes, 23 seconds

and drink of the cup and body and blood of Christ unworthily, you eat and drink your own condemnation on yourself. It's a paraphrase, believe Paul on that,

13 minutes, 33 seconds

but it was terrible, grave injustice.

13 minutes, 36 seconds

But the story struck me as familiar because it was going viral. I saw a lot of people sharing that clip. It's like,

13 minutes, 42 seconds

so did I miss a story? Did I somehow did I who spend entirely too much time online every single day looking for these stories kind of missed something?

13 minutes, 52 seconds

Well, no, I didn't because I don't know why it was going viral, but this story was actually originally from 2023. It's actually though instructive. So,

14 minutes

we'll go briefly over it again because now more than ever, it seems like this actually does apply to our time. So

14 minutes, 7 seconds

commentate wanderer published this saying silence in the face of the heresy of manscior Victor Fernandez

14 minutes, 16 seconds

where and you know it's he's they're talking about this address without realizing it says Monscia Fernandez the church developed over

14 minutes, 24 seconds

centuries a doctrine full of classifications that establish that a only those who baptized or in a state of grace can receive communion and those

14 minutes, 32 seconds

who are in mortal sin cannot b only those who are repentant of their sins and show a purpose of amendment can receive sacramental absolution. This,

14 minutes, 39 seconds

the prelute says, was something terrible. Fortunately, it happened in times that are now passed because Pope Francis has changed all those evil things. Beyond the picturesque and

14 minutes, 48 seconds

pathetic aspects of the character, what he has said in a public and magisterial manner since he has spoke from his bishop's chair is extremely serious and

14 minutes, 55 seconds

cannot be ignored. For what has been said constitutes a clear and distinct heresy, for it denies after receiving baptism a truth that must be believed

15 minutes, 4 seconds

with divine and Catholic faith. citing canon law. It goes on saying that Bishop Victor Manuel Victor Manuel Fernandez

15 minutes, 11 seconds

was excommunicated. This was just before he got appointed and hit that it's relevant because these

15 minutes, 20 seconds

classifications on who can and can't receive communion. It's been pointed out numerous times that in light of the

15 minutes, 27 seconds

coming SSPX consecrations that the Vatican is not willing to even dialogue with the SSPX unless they first agree to

15 minutes, 36 seconds

hang up their elicit consecrations. And I say elicited with quotes because the code of canon law gives a gives a actual

15 minutes, 46 seconds

standard for allowing consecrations without the approval of Rome. And that is actually a state of emergency. And it

15 minutes, 53 seconds

doesn't say anywhere in there that state of emergency must be declared by Rome or something.

16 minutes

Presumably that means the bishop has the ability to do so. Imagine,

16 minutes, 6 seconds

you know, we occasionally talk a little bit about Catholic prophecy here. Some interpretations of private revelation suggest a a major war is coming to

16 minutes, 15 seconds

Europe. And some of those interpretations make it sound like Rome will be captured.

16 minutes, 21 seconds

If that were to happen and the pope were to disappear, go underground, be in communicado, or worse,

16 minutes, 29 seconds

but you didn't know, that would be a clear indication, right? Well, the SSPX's assertion essentially is this

16 minutes, 37 seconds

that every single pope and most of the bishops since Vatican 2 have have embibded heavily of the well of modernism. They have embied of the

16 minutes, 46 seconds

errors. Most of them trying to do this dance between orthodoxy, you know,

16 minutes, 50 seconds

traditional Catholic teaching and the spirit of Vatican 2.

16 minutes, 55 seconds

They liken it to being the father being intoxicated. If you came home to visit

17 minutes, 2 seconds

your parents and you found your father an empty case of whatever his beer of choice is, buy him at the table, most of

17 minutes, 10 seconds

it empty, and he was clearly three sheets to the wind. And then he said,

17 minutes, 13 seconds

"Hey, um, I want to barbecue. Go ahead and go set up the charcoal grill in in the right in the living room. We're going to, you know, have some nice steaks or burgers or whatever."

17 minutes, 23 seconds

Would you do what he told you? No. That would be insane.

17 minutes, 29 seconds

Theologically, the things that these men have told us to do for the last several decades have largely been the same. Insane.

17 minutes, 36 seconds

And you see it with the strip to Algeria. That is their assertion.

17 minutes, 43 seconds

And the SSPX are going to get excommunicated when they consecrate four to six or 10 or whatever the number is bishops in about two months, two and a half months.

17 minutes, 53 seconds

And while in his trip to Alger, the pope is telling the a very modern enemy of the church that it's okay to we can live in peace one another rather implying

18 minutes, 2 seconds

that there's more communion between them and the church and the than there is with the SSPX and traditional Catholics.

18 minutes, 12 seconds

Give you another example of this.

18 minutes, 16 seconds

We have seen a this absolute disdain for the faith. And

18 minutes, 23 seconds

this disdain for the faith manifests itself in a couple of ways.

18 minutes, 28 seconds

First and foremost, the church because of its and by the church I mean the human element, the men who run the church

18 minutes, 36 seconds

have acrewed a lot of debts and main driving factor for these debts are lawsuits. Lawsuits related to the

18 minutes, 43 seconds

McCarrick problem. You know, Uncle Ted McCarrick, you know the man. I cannot describe his uh his evil deeds in any great detail on any social media

18 minutes, 52 seconds

platform. It violates the rules pretty explicitly. But you know his name. You know what he's synonymous with. The man was a monster.

19 minutes, 1 second

And it was a widespread problem in the hierarchy. The widespread problem was this. You would have priests who were

19 minutes, 9 seconds

cut from the same spiritual cloth as him. Sometimes bishops were and others were just James Martin types and they

19 minutes, 16 seconds

created this kind of a codery amongst themselves where they would suddenly get caught basically or they were about to get caught and the bishops caught wind

19 minutes, 24 seconds

of this. So they would treat these men as if they were like baseball players.

19 minutes, 28 seconds

They would trade them from one dascese to the other or they would move them from an urban parish to a rural parish or vice versa just far away where they wouldn't encounter these people anymore.

19 minutes, 37 seconds

And that's how they swept it under the rug. Eventually this all turned into lawsuits. We all know the story.

19 minutes, 43 seconds

Well, then you get another thing we're all too we are all too familiar with and that is the liquidation of your parishes.

19 minutes, 51 seconds

So the headline from Catholic conclave scandalous sale of historic church on the internet. The carnage continues in the declining church in Germany.

20 minutes, 2 seconds

Now the declining church in Germany is instructive here. They have right now going on the senate on cidality. Well,

20 minutes, 9 seconds

they call it the German sonal way. It's just a slightly more radical version of the broader cinnidon cenidality. And

20 minutes, 16 seconds

they have promoted all sorts of stupid ideas that are blatantly heretical.

20 minutes, 22 seconds

Basically would lead it to not being Catholic anymore. They've had some of their own bishops who if you took them outside of Germany would be considered pretty progressive, but in Germany

20 minutes, 30 seconds

they're really conservative by their standards who have said this is not Catholic. We have to stop this. And they get ostracized for this.

20 minutes, 38 seconds

They want to put ley in charge of pretty much everything and including giving homalies turning bishops and priests into essentially the employees the

20 minutes, 46 seconds

subordinates of lady. It's a diabolical inversion of the natural order of things. But they blame McCarrick for all of it.

20 minutes, 53 seconds

They say because of McCarrick type priests and bishops we have to change everything in the church. And so they use it as a way to change every every

21 minutes, 1 second

single moral teaching in the church. And weirdly this also manifests themselves in the liquidation of Catholic assets of

21 minutes, 8 seconds

church assets because they lose a lot of Catholics every year. Last year they lost like half a million Catholics. They just stopped going to mass. They

21 minutes, 16 seconds

unregistered with the governments. They would stop paying their tithe tax.

21 minutes, 19 seconds

That's how it works in Germany. the ger the German government gives tithing money to the church and they collect it from Catholics who are registered as

21 minutes, 28 seconds

Catholic or you know Lutheran get their you know pay the same thing to the government and then they send that money to the Lutheran church that's how it

21 minutes, 35 seconds

works there very strange system and now they're selling a historic church in Germany

21 minutes, 45 seconds

parish offers St. Cruises church for sale online. We already have many new ideas. Children's clothing, coffee

21 minutes, 52 seconds

machines, pressure washers, and now a church. The Urfort City Center Parish is offering the Cruises Church for sale on classified sites. I'm not going to try

22 minutes

to say that name to reach potential buyers outside the church community.

22 minutes, 6 seconds

Why are they taking the unusual approach? Well, for the past two years,

22 minutes, 9 seconds

St. Lorentius Parish has been undergoing a consolidation process.

22 minutes, 13 seconds

consolidation process has happened because people leave the church in large numbers. And I will have a report probably for you later this week on this because a good priest put together the

22 minutes, 22 seconds

data in a way that kind of dashes water on the old look at all these new Catholics coming in the church thing.

22 minutes, 28 seconds

It's worth looking at. At the end of this lurggical year, we will be closing four of our seven churches for parish

22 minutes, 35 seconds

use and are looking for new uses for them. Since the beginning of this year,

22 minutes, 40 seconds

we have already secured potential uses for three churches with whom we can negotiate effectively. Unfortunately,

22 minutes, 46 seconds

this isn't the case for St. Cru's Church. This led to the idea of expanding our pool of interested parties and gathering more ideas.

22 minutes, 53 seconds

Now, before I show you what this parish looks like, I've covered a number of these over the years. They often get turned into cafes or they get turned

23 minutes, 1 second

into gyms or dance clubs or restaurants or worse.

23 minutes, 8 seconds

I have not encountered a story yet of them being turned into um club so that I the clubs that allegedly gentlemen go to

23 minutes, 16 seconds

or the uh James Martin equivalent of those. I haven't seen that yet,

23 minutes, 21 seconds

but it might have happened. The one thing these parishes never get sold for though because they do get sold to uh the Crescent Moon worshippers and their

23 minutes, 28 seconds

false prophet, the followers of him. But whenever the SSPX show up and say, "Hey,

23 minutes, 34 seconds

we've got the money from donors to buy this beautiful parish," the the bishops universally always say no to them. And

23 minutes, 40 seconds

that was before this recent scandal of the possible consecration of bishops. This is what the parish looks like.

23 minutes, 49 seconds

See why it's so scandalous?

23 minutes, 51 seconds

This isn't a church in the realm built in 1978.

23 minutes, 56 seconds

This is ancient. This is a treasure of the church.

24 minutes, 2 seconds

Behold the cross of the Lord. No, let's now sell the church of the cross.

24 minutes, 10 seconds

This is a part of a broader broader problem.

24 minutes, 14 seconds

This is this is the radical fidelity substack with this story.

24 minutes, 20 seconds

You can have the TLM if you accept heresy and doctrinal errors as synonym cardinal. Aene's gesture of inclusion should be rejected because Catholics do

24 minutes, 28 seconds

not want to be included in a false religion.

24 minutes, 33 seconds

Remember the pope's trip to Alers where he told modern people who are oppressing the Catholic Church there making it

24 minutes, 41 seconds

illegal for them to the church there to do the great commission that we can live together and be friends in harmony and peace. It is not harmony and peace to do that.

24 minutes, 53 seconds

And would you want to live in harmony and peace with with a satanic false religion?

25 minutes

This is Avalene offering, you know, the TLM as a carrot on a stick with a with with the Vatican 2 under his thing and traditionalist group saying no deal.

25 minutes, 13 seconds

Another synonyotist who thinks he has the right to negotiate with Catholic who wants to use God's mass of the ages as a bargaining tool to get you to subject your eternal soul to teachings that are

25 minutes, 22 seconds

anti-atholic, heretical, and will lead you to hell. This time it is French Cardinal Jean Mark Avalene, Archbishop of Marseilles.

25 minutes, 30 seconds

And then the authors, you remember when everyone thought he was going to be a good Burggalio, not Burggalio, but a Benedict the 617th type pope.

25 minutes, 39 seconds

Aene, who is also the president of the French Episcopal Conference, made some remarks recently with regards to the ongoing tension surrounding the traditional Latin mass in France.

25 minutes, 48 seconds

Speaking in an Easter interview, Aveene acknowledged that the question of liturgy is not merely ceremonial but deeply theological, touching on doctrine, ecclesiology, and above all

25 minutes, 56 seconds

the reception of the second Vatican council. He proposes what appears at first glance and if you adhere to the sonatal religion to be a consilitary

26 minutes, 5 seconds

approach. Bishops should exercise pastoral care towards those attached to the pre-conellular liturgy, welcoming the spiritual needs without judgment.

26 minutes, 14 seconds

Quickly becomes clear, however, that Aene's openness is explicitly conditioned. He insists that such faithful, that's you and me, those who

26 minutes, 22 seconds

want to attend the TLM must accept what he calls the church's living tradition. That is a red flag term.

26 minutes, 30 seconds

The saints going all the way back to the third century or earlier to the Aryan heresy

26 minutes, 37 seconds

will tell you that the traditions of the church are rigid and unchanging and anybody who brings to you changings to the church's teaching regardless of the

26 minutes, 45 seconds

office they hold should be resisted. You should rigidly cling to what was handed to you. That is literally the opposite of a living tradition.

26 minutes, 54 seconds

But he uses the term living tradition which he argues necessarily includes Vatican 2.

27 minutes

He further claims the apparent tension between attachment, that dreaded and faulty description to the old right and acceptance of the council is not

27 minutes, 7 seconds

necessarily irreconcilable provided one adopts the so-called hermeneutic of continuity a garbage framework most famously articulated by Benedict the

27 minutes, 15 seconds

16th and as an aside cast to the wind by Francis who rather explicitly said the only hermeneutic to Vatican 2 is the

27 minutes, 24 seconds

sonal one he didn't use the word senado but in hindsight that's exactly what he was talking about these remarks of course take place in

27 minutes, 33 seconds

the broader French context growing traditionalist communities ongoing friction between bishops and faithful the unresolved status of groups like the society of St. Pas the 10th. If you

27 minutes, 41 seconds

don't remember the story, it goes like this. Pope Leo had a meeting with the French bishops and told them to find

27 minutes, 49 seconds

generous accommodations for those quote attached to the traditional mass.

27 minutes, 54 seconds

Everyone took that as a great sign. I mean, how could you not? And then the French bishops responded with what their

28 minutes, 1 second

understanding of generosity means. Their understanding of generosity was really quite simple.

28 minutes, 7 seconds

They wanted the traditional mass, the the liturgy of 1962 to be so fundamentally changed that a new missile

28 minutes, 14 seconds

for that for the traditional mass would have to be written and published. It would be attached to the new calendar with all the new feasts.

28 minutes, 23 seconds

It would have to include acceptance explicitly by the clergy and the ley of Vatican 2. It would require the end of

28 minutes, 32 seconds

any resistance to the changes in the church.

28 minutes, 36 seconds

That's what they want. And when they're done with it, you won't recognize the traditional mass anyway.

28 minutes, 43 seconds

And they said this a couple months after saying that they were going to turn their eyes to Eastern Catholics as well to bring in cidality as they t taught it

28 minutes, 53 seconds

to the Eastern rights, whatever that means.

28 minutes, 58 seconds

And it goes back to those things that Fernandez said that suddenly make much more sense now

29 minutes, 7 seconds

about the about these rigid classifications on who is in communion and who is not and that that the church has changed.

29 minutes, 18 seconds

Traditionalists are not seen in the same level of communion as actual pagans are as long as the pagans are of goodwill.

29 minutes, 29 seconds

It's insane. Let's check the super chat here.

29 minutes, 37 seconds

Uh, Wayon for 20 months says, "Please pray for brother Ignatius who is missing at sea." I do plan to report on that later this week. There is a priest

29 minutes, 45 seconds

missing at sea. Very big deal. Please pray for him. But I'm hoping that before I report on that story, his the story changes overnight. That's what I'm

29 minutes, 53 seconds

really hoping for so that I can give you good news when I go when I report on that tomorrow. good news being that he was found fine or maybe not fine but

30 minutes, 1 second

alive and he's getting the care he needs. That's what I'm hoping for. And so I'm going to try to have a little bit of Easter optimism and delay reporting on that until tomorrow.

30 minutes, 13 seconds

But I'm curious what you think about this. Do you see the problem with the statements by Fernandez? Do you see how

30 minutes, 20 seconds

all of this ties together? There is a crisis and it's the crisis is embodied

30 minutes, 26 seconds

most most clearly these days in the willingness of bishops to sell a church that looks like this to anybody

30 minutes, 35 seconds

but traditional Catholics including pagans who are in open hostility to the church. Look at what's going on in

30 minutes, 43 seconds

Nigeria. Okay. Can't report on that on YouTube, not easily, without being nearly incomprehensible because of how just how how grotesque things are there.

30 minutes, 55 seconds

But a parish that looks like this might become a coffee shop. Yes, it'll be deconsecrated.

31 minutes, 3 seconds

Okay, that doesn't make it okay. That doesn't make it all right. Doesn't make it acceptable.

31 minutes, 9 seconds

This is going to be sold. Maybe it'll be a gym. God willing won't be used for that. God willing, whatever profane use

31 minutes, 16 seconds

it's will be used for will not be something involve sins that crowd out to heaven for vengeance.
