Three Miracles On The 10th Sunday of Ordinary Time(2nd Sunday After Pentecost)

6 Jun

It was in the Old Testament Reading where The Prophet Elias(Elijah) came into a house where a widow’s young child had died.
He took the child into an upstairs room, put the child on a bed & put his body over the child Three Times. The child came back to life.
In The Gospel according to St Luke, the son of a Widow had died. Jesus came into the house and raised up the son.
Both are Miracles. Both prefigure the Death and Resurrection of Jesus. Mother Mary Theotokos was also a Widow.
The Third Miracle occurs at EVERY Catholic Liturgy in The World, as the Offered Bread and Wine becomes The Body & Blood, Soul & Divinity, through the action of The Priest, acting in Christ’s Person as an Alter Christus. This does NOT occur in most Protestant Ecclesiastical Communities because most of these Communities have no VALIDLY Ordained Priesthood.

Vivat Christus Rex!
Mater Dei, Ora Pro Nobis!

1st Holy Communion & Bad Music

14 May

There is SOMETHING To be said for SILENCE. The Tridentine Latin Mass & the Byzantine Rite Catholic Divine Liturgy of St John Chrysostom(Bishop, Confessor, Doctor of The Church), both experience this at Holy Communion. Not so in Novus Ordo Land, as “Music” of what My Most Dear Friend calls “Vomit, Barf, Puke & S–t”, warbles over the Wurlitzer Organ. It is the type of Liturgical Music, which can be considered to be Torture by The Geneva Convention & The Canadian Human Rights Commission, as well as unsuitable for use as theme music for assorted Television Series on CBC in Canada. CBC’s Resident Curmudgeon, The Redoubtable Rex Murphy, would call this Gaggle “The Utter Disonance of Trite Tripe, with the Ability to cause massive intestinal distress.”
No Doubt that Peter Mansbridge would concur.
Ever since the Seeming End of the Tridentine Era & Coming of The Novus Ordo Era, the Emphasis is on Meal instead of The Sacrifice. And the Music is written to express the Nouvelle Theologie of a Protestant Friendly Liturgy called The Mass.
Opening a 1st Holy Communion Mass with a Sure Fire Schutte Song(Hymns Are Sung TO God), “Table Of Plenty”, which would cause Fits to both Tridentine Latin Mass Attendees as well as for Catholics of The Eastern Catholic Churches, is a Horizontal Song. One is never supposed to sing the Part of The Christ unless one is a Bishop, Priest or Deacon.
As the Doctrine of The Body & Blood of Christ is The Doctrine of Holy Communion, WHY is this Song played, as it virtually infers a Pizza Party? Because, ever since the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council(V II), the emphasis became Meal Oriented, in the Name of False Ecumenism, which Protestants proclaim since the Time of Martin Luther & Ulrich Zwingli, both Apostate Catholic Priests, who were both Excommunicated for Heresy & Apostasy.
Almost 50 Years have passed since Benedictine Archabbot Rembert Weakland, with a couple of Revolutionaries, brought into being the Utterly Nauseating “Folk Mass”, strummed on Guitars, replete with Music With Absolutely No Majesty. I call it “106.7 Lite FM.” This occurred While The Tridentine Form of Mass was still in effect in October of 1967. Archabbot Weakland was later named Archbishop of Milwaukee, WI. He discovered a slew of Loopholes in the V II Modernist Document, “Sacrosanctum Concillium”, Fr Annibale Bugnini’s Blueprint for a Protestant Friendly Liturgy called The Novus Ordo Mass. A sure sign of Change would be the Playing & Singing of “Bread Songs.”
At the(Stripped Down) Offertory, there is what is called “The Presentation Of The Gifts”, which is merely transferring the Bread & Wine to The Priest, so that the Priest will offer up the Bread & Wine & later consecrate it into The Body & Blood of Christ.
The “Offertory Song” is a Folk Mass “Classic”, as it almost 50 Years Old, called “Take Our Bread.” The way that song comes out, it treats The Most Holy Sacrament of The Altar, as if it was a Campfire Sing Along about a Meal. Instead of being played on Guitars, the Organ was used.
This was at a Queens Parish in the RC Diocese of Brooklyn, not in Canada.
One wonders how the Children were trained on how to receive Holy Communion. This being the USA, it most likely was in the hand. In my time, in 1962, ONLY the Priest could even touch The Body & Blood of Christ. Hey, his hands, as he acts “In Persona Christi” are consecrated. Ours are NOT.
At Communion Time, “One Bread, One Body”, as part of “The Bread Songfest” was sung.
A “We Are” Song called “We Are Many Parts”(Totally Unknown to me, but is part of “The We Are Songfest of 2016”) was sung. It is a Song where we tell God how good we are, then ask God for “The Spirit Of Love.”

And My Most Dear Friend would have been Utterly Enraged by the Musical Selection, calling for the Starvation of The Music Director. She would have to include the “Liturgy Committee” for such Musical Selection.
It is as if The Liturgy has done a 180° Turn, with Man worshipping himself, forgetting who put Man there.
Keep this up like this and The Triune Lord will send Man something Man will NEVER Forget & it will NOT be a Pretty Sight.

Kyrie Elaison!

A Pope, The Magisterium & “Mr Mouthwash”

14 Apr

Matrimony is tied into The Eucharist. Violating the Bond of Matrimony through Divorce, does NOT mean that this Sacrament is dissolved. It cannot be dissolved. The Catholic Church, however, through Annulment, judges as to whether or not a Valid Marriage had occurred. One may not enter into a Civil “Second Marriage” as this would constitute Adultery & both parties under Church Law would be denied the Sacraments, particularly Holy Communion & Penance. This was called Excommunication when I was educated in the RC Diocese of Brooklyn. Divorce was unheard of when I was in Catholic School.

I had a Speech Therapist. A nice woman, she resided in Forest Hills Gardens in Queens. She was divorced with two sons. She was not Catholic. I think she was Lutheran. I asked my Mom about Divorce. Her answer was “That’s what Protestants do.” Annulment is NOT in Protestant Vocabulary. Nor is it in the Vocabulary of the Eastern Orthodox Churches. Divorce, sadly, is in both Protestant & Eastern Orthodox Faiths.
For Christ said that Marriage is Forever & Divorce is out of The Question, so Second Marriages were out of The Question.

Like “What Game On FOX is Pope Francis I watching?” He, from Observation, either doesn’t understand Doctriine, or disregards Doctrine completely. As the Utterly Liberaltastic Jorge Mario Cardinal Bergoglio, a person who was Divorced & Civilly Remarried in the RC Archdiocese of Buenos Aires, Argentina, often received Holy Communion with Cardinal Bergoglio’s Permission. He often visited Los Barrios(Slum Areas), where many people were married a few times, and authorized the giving of Holy Communion to these Multi Marrieds, who divorced and Civilly Remarried. It is contrary to Church Law and The Magisterium to do this but Bergoglio was a Disobedient Archbishop.

The Apple doesn’t fall far from the Tree. In his early goings as Pope Francis I, Bergoglio gave Telephone Permission to two women who were divorced/Civilly Remarried to receive Holy Communion. These are the only two women that anyone knows of. It may have occurred more times than what we know of the two women.

It is as if Rome is the New Buenos Aires. As there were two Synods, called “Synods On The Family”(More like “Synods Of Doom” as Christopher Ferrara calls them) in October, 2014 & 2015, called by Pope Francis I. His Intent is to Change Doctrine via the “Pastoral Route”, whereby the Law stays on the books but a new interpretation is given to that Law.
Welcome to Stealth.

Neo Catholic Broadcast Journalist Who Denies This Heresy:
Actually The Neo Catholic Broadcast Journalist Who runs a Studio under subsidy of a Fat Cat Backer In Texas, is into Censorship of the variety which would make the CHINESE Envious.
(The North Koreans would be even more envious).
Papalotry runs deep here. Censoring a report that Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke called for Pope Francis I to be more clear at Synod Of Doom Part One, tells me that this Internet TV outlet, would be useful to the current Papacy, as a Mere Propaganda Tool. The Executive Producer is named in part for a Mouthwash.
Of course, if Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan comits an act of Flatulence aboard a Northbound IND 6th Avenue D Train headed to Yankee Stadium, this outlet will break in with Correspondents in New York & Detroit to announce the Flatulence, but when Pope Francis I is pronouncing Heresy in an Exhortation, it is WHITEWASHED.
MR Mouthwash, your report is Drivel. It says NOTHING about the Evil being perpetrated. It is as if The Evildoer does NOT exist.
And you don’t read the Vatican Documents.
YOU ARE A MOUTHPIECE FOR A FAT CAT IN TEXAS, whose Nuns in Oyster Bay, North Shore of Long Island where that FAT CAT GREW UP, didn’t smack this guy around enough. Neither did his High School Brothers in Mineola, in the Town of North Hempstead, teach this guy a Lesson.
Are you sure that you’re a Newsman, Mr Mouthwash?

The Remnant Newspaper, Catholic Family News, akaCatholic.com, Rorate Caeli & Mundabor’s Sites, I fully recommend as Catholic Sites. The Internet TV outlet in Ferndale, MI, heavily hosted by Mr Mouthwash, is NOT on my recommended list.

In 2017, I Won’t Bother With 5th Avenue On March 17th

20 Mar

Since as I remember the “Danger ous 1990s”, when in 1991, with the Assistance of The Dinkins Administration & Ancient Order Of Hibernians Manhattan Division 7, a crew of Quares came into The Saint Patrick’s Day Parade, chanting “We’re Here, We’re Queer, We’re Irish, Get Used To It”, it was only a matter of time before this became The New Practice. I didn’t have ANYTHING to do with this Parade until Y2K.
In Ireland, a Formerly Catholic Nation, the Term called “Quare” means Odd. It is also to signify that one is “Fey” or “Gay.” And in the United Kingdom Of Great Britain & Northern Ireland, “Gay” means “Rubbish.” For “Gay” in the USA AND CANADA means Homosexual.
Fegula is a Latin Word for Homosexual, under the nasty sounding word “Faggot”, a word meaning simply “A Bunch Of Sticks.” The British & Irish smoke what are called “Fags”, which actually are called Cigarettes, a variation of Cigars or “Smoking Sticks.”

The Parade remained relatively Irish Catholic after The 1991 Parade, but there was a Case before the Supreme Court Of The United States of America, whose ruling stated that a Private Group has the Right to choose who they wish to associate with. This covered the Boston & New York City Saint Patrick’s Day Parades. This was in 1995. In 1995, the National Ancient Order Of Hibernians ordered the Local & State AOH Groups to set up a corporation to run their local parades as Lawsuits by Homosexual Organizations were taking a grave toll via these lawsuits. Hence, The NYC St Patrick’s Day Parade Committee Inc was founded to run the Parade annually.

Did I NOT say that The 1990s were a Dangerous Time for The Parade? Yes, I did say that and it did prove to be that.

It was in 2014 that Guinness PLC & Heineken, withdrew their Sponsorships until Gay Groups were allowed to march under their own banners. In 2015, Out@NBCUniversal marched under their own banner. In 2016, through the Intervention of Politicians, both Civil & Ecclesiastical(Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan, & Pope Francis I), Mayor Bill Di Blasio & Former US Ambassador to The Northern Ireland Peace Accord, Former US Senator George Kilroy Mitchell, the Group, Lavender & Green, joined The Fray.

In The Words of My Most Dear Friend, which I am adopting for 2017, “I Am So Done With This Parade.”

And, for once, I wholeheartedly agree with Mike Voris. This Parade isn’t the Least Bit Catholic, as it has become a Secular Humanist “Mardi Gras”, in exchange for Beer Sponsors.
From after the 1991 Parade until 2000, I wouldn’t have ANYTHING to do with the St. Patrick’s Day Parade.

Here I Go AGAIN!

Kyrie Elaison!

Platforms For Long Island K of C Free Throw Basketball Championship Coverage

13 Mar

The Two Main Video Platforms for this Round of Knights Of Columbus International Free Throw Basketball Championship Round IV Coverage are Dailymotion & Vimeo. You Tube is out of the question because of the viewing potential is rapidly fading away. Not everyone cares to watch on You Tube. The Last Time that all Three Services carried the Long Island Championship Final, You Tube was utterly ignored. Vimeo & Dailymotion ruled the day. Of course, Certain NY Daily News Reading Queens Residents in Middle Village & East Glendale, who believe themselves gifted with knowledge of “Media Novus”, got my Production Company to add the Coverage to You Tube. Their Daughters drew 6 & 7 Views each on You Tube. So much for their “Media Expertise.” Their idea of ” Media Platform” is the Middle of the Uptown Platform at 71st Avenue on the IND SUBWAY Queens Boulevard Line, Media being Latin for Middle. Reading the NY Daily News is no excuse for ignorance, nor a sign of Literacy.
These Two New Media Platforms are well known outside of the USA, and getting to be well known inside of the USA & Canada. Both are known for quality of videos and for Producers who care to produce quality without having to put up with a “Promenade Of Illiterati”, so omnipresent on You Tube. With one Free Throw Basketball Championship Segment on You Tube, with Gregorian Chant, signifying that the Knights Of Columbus is an International Catholic Fraternal Organization, it attracted some illiterati, who complained to You Tube about it. I decided then not to waste this little gem on You Tube. It is on Dailymotion.
Both Platforms will utilize Social Media to draw viewers from. The Characters from 2011 are either in High School or University. I refuse to follow the crowd. Quality is what will be produced & Simulcast on Social Media, such as Facebook, Google+, Twitter & tumblr, as well as my site on WordPress. I have no time to produce “The East Glendale-Middle Village Video Sharing War.”

The Vimeo Coverage will have a 1950s Feel to it, as the coverage will be entirely in Black & White, Film Noir Style.

What You See in a Quality Product, is What One Will Get.

Vivat Christus Rex!
Vivat Jesus!

“I’m Voting For Trump. I Don’t Care What The Catholics Say”

12 Mar

This is from a Devout Catholic, who is no Neo Catholic. This Woman is a Close Friend of Mine. Pope Francis absolutely INFURIATES Her(I haven’t Trusted this Pope from Day TWO). She calls “A Spade, A Spade.” Protestants & Eastern Orthodox are Heretics.
I realise that The US Bishops as an Exercise in that Vatican II Practice called “Collegiality”, as a Group or “Hapless Bench”, are certainly NOT “In The Centre”, but, rather, Operatives of The Political Entity of Hillary Clinton & Barack Obama, something which I call the Demagogic Party, officially the Democratic Party of The United States of America(Just ask Cardinal Bravo, which a “Little Birdie Told Me”).
Neo Catholics infuriate her. They enrage me. They have No Solution to a Problem. They are “Go With The Flow” and agree with Papal Novelties. If there were “Altar Trangenders” & if Pope Francis I said they were OK, The NeoCats would go along with The Pope.

Neo Catholics don’t have a clue.

“K of C Queens County Free Throw Basketball Championship Round III” on YouTube

8 Mar

This was Live Streaming Telecast of The Knights Of Columbus International Free Throw Basketball Championship Round III from Elmhurst, Queens, NY.

What amazes me are those people who tell me that everything should be on You Tube. Are these People somewhat Daft? In 2011, new audiences were found, not only in the USA & Canada, but in Nations where You Tube is blocked. Vimeo and Dailymotion took over in those places. Imagine having Competition Viewers in Iran. The Competitions on Dailymotion & Vimeo had viewers there. You Tube was blacked out in Iran & China.
And Vimeo as well as Dailymotion were watched in The USA.
As for the You Tube Only Crowd, especially the Crowers In Queens Neighborhoods, did any of you even bother to WATCH?

The Gospels Over 3 Days

7 Mar

First Friday was Novus Ordo, as was Saturday, which is called Saturday of Our Lady. Today is the 1st Sunday. It is also the Fourth Sunday In Lent, called Laetere Sunday, which is a Lenten Sunday of Joy. It means that Easter(Pesach) is Nigh. And I was at St. Agnes on E43rd Street in Midtown Manhattan.
Friday, March 4th at 8:00AM & The Mass Celebrant was the Most Reverend Paul Sanchez, aided by the Pastor Emeritus of St. Vincent Ferrer Parish in Brooklyn, Monsignor Fursey O’Toole, Irish Born.
The Gospel was the Greatest Commandments, both of which summarize the 10 Commandments. As Jesus said “Thou Shalt Love The Lord Thy God, With All Thy Heart, With All Thy Soul, With All Thy Mind & With All Thy Strength. The Second Great Commandment is “Thou Shalt Love Thy Neighbour as Thyself.” An Example of “Love Thy Neighbour” was given at The 12:05PM Mass by Our Lady Queen of Martyrs Administrator, Fr Frank Passenant & it was an Excellent Example. We don’t always look at Our Parents as Neighbours, but they are the Neighbours closest to you. Hey, They’re Neighbours by Blood. Pray For Them, both Living & Dead.
First Saturday at the 12:05PM Mass was offered by Fr Frank Passenant. This is the Story in The Gospel of The Pharisee & The Publican. The Pharisees were the Learned Religious Men. They were The Priestly Class of Judaism. But, they were NOT always known for their Humility. Everything was OUTWARD, but not always INTERIOR.
Publican is a Nice Name for The Most Hated of Roman Officials, namely The Tax Collector. Many of these Men were conmen, often taking more than what was due. For the Tax Collector was one who often lived like a Fat Cat. For he was a Private Contractor for the Roman Empire, who often took Liberties beyond what was due. And One of The Original 12 Apostles, Matthew, was originally a Tax Collector. He was also one of The 4 Evangelists in The Writing of The Gospels.
In this Gospel, The Pharisee is, in his Prayer to The Lord, bragging about how good he is, while degrading others such as Publicans. This guy was there to be seen, like close to The Sanctuary, practically telling The Lord that his “Excrement doesn’t have a foul odor.”
What A Schmuck!
Meanwhile, The Sinful Publican, barely able to raise his eyes Heavenward, who was all the way in the rear of The Temple, actually recognized the fact that he was a Sinner, & begged The Lord in this manner, “Lord, Be Merciful To Me For I Am A Sinner.”
The Publican received God’s Mercy. The Pharisee only got the Admiration of Man.
For Today on Lautare Sunday, as this is the Sunday indicating, that The Joy of Easter is Near, hence Vestments in the Bright Colour of Pink, Today’s Gospel for The Tridentine Latin Mass is The Miracle of The Loaves Of Bread & Fish. It was only 5 Loaves of Bread and 2 Fish, yet there was enough left over to fill 12 Baskets. There were 5,000 Men who were fed. This was The Miracle of The Loaves & Fish, and Jesus Multiplied the Loaves & Fish. No one left hungry.
Three Days, Four Masses & The Good News, The Gospel Of The Lord Jesus Christ!

Laus Tibi Christe!

For 1st Friday & 1st Saturday, I Will Stay Local

4 Mar

In short, I am staying here in Queens, in Forest Hills instead of running by Subway to Manhattan.
The Weather plays a part in it as it is snowing. So, a Doubleheader of Masses at Our Lady Queen of Martyrs in Forest Hills, Queens, instead of running to Midtown Manhattan, will be what I do, today.
I have to head to Stations Of The Cross at 7:30PM at OLQM. It’ll be a Faith Based Day here.
I will record the Stations Of The Cross On You Tube Live Streaming. It should work better than the Queens County Knights Of Columbus International Free Throw Basketball Championship Round III. OLQM Parishioners tend to watch You Tube.

Deo Gratias!
