Christ the Light Will Always Shine through the Darkness

Holy Mother Church teaches us to have custody of our eyes. We are not to look at that which is prurient, indecent, or immodest, and we are not to let curiosity lead us into viewing things that are abominable in the sight of the Most Holy Trinity. We are also called to turn our eyes away from those sights that are offensive to God and thus might lead us into sin no matter how “attractive” the adversary makes these sights out to be.

Thus, there is no need whatsoever to provide any links to the blasphemous mockery of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ’s Last Supper that took place at the opening of the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, France, on Saturday, July 27, 2024, the Feast of Our Lady, Mother of Mercy, and the Commemoration of Saint Pantaleon. It is enough to note the fact that the world has degenerated to the point where a mockery of Our Lord’s institution of the Holy Eucharist prior to entering into His Sacred Passion atop the Mount of Olives and that said mockery is being praised by supposed Catholics, including Dr. Jill Jacobs Stevenson Biden:

First lady Jill Biden had high praise for the opening ceremony at the Paris Olympics this weekend, despite widespread criticism that the performance mocked the Last Supper.

Biden led the U.S. delegation to the Olympics and called the opening ceremony "spectacular." Despite the festivity, heavy rain drenched the athletes from all nations as they paraded down the river Siene on boats.

Biden remarked that the U.S. would have to work hard to top Paris' opening ceremony when the games are held in Los Angeles in 2028.

"So, last night, it was just spectacular," Biden said in a statement. "The rain did not dampen our spirits…. Every step of the way, I was thinking to myself, oh my god, oh my god. How are we going to top this?"

"So, ok. Paris has the Eiffel Tower, but we have Hollywood and the magic of Hollywood that makes all dreams come true. I think we’re going to be ok.… It’s a city where new generations of dreamers shape our culture," she added.

"At the end of the 2028 Games, Olympians and fans will see themselves reflected in Los Angeles," Biden said.

Several U.S. and world lawmakers denounced the Paris ceremony after drag queens and artists made a spectacle of the Leonardo DaVinci painting, the Last Supper, which depicts the last meal Jesus had with his apostles.

"Last night’s mockery of the Last Supper was shocking and insulting to Christian people around the world who watched the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games," House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said in a post on X. "The war on our faith and traditional values knows no bounds today. But we know that truth and virtue will always prevail." (First lady Jill Biden praises Olympics opening ceremony that mocked Last Supper.)

It stands to reason that a woman who wore Rosary beads around her neck while promoting contraception and abortion in Kenya nearly six months ago would be impressed with a display mocking Our Lord’s Last Supper on Maundy Thursday. Only one with a sick heart and a sicker soul could find “inspiration” in a blasphemous display that celebrates perversity, indecency, impurity, and all the horror and ugliness of sin. Then again, a world that is deprived of a superabundance of Sanctifying and Actual Graces caused by the sacramentally invalid and barren nature of the conciliar liturgical rites must perforce fall prey to the adversary and thus be enthralled with displays conjured up by those with sick minds that receive whatever their “inspiration” directly from the adversary and all his minions in the very depths of abyss that is hell itself.

Unlike what Speaker of the United States House of Representatives Michael Johnson and almost every other public figure who has criticized the Olympian blasphemy in Paris on Saturday, July 27, 2024, what happened was not merely “insulting” to Christians. What happened was meant to be and was in fact offensive to God, and almost no one except for one or two conciliar “bishops” has called for reparation to be made to Him for this premediated mockery of His Co-Equal, Co-Eternal Divine Son, Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, on the night He was betrayed to the Jews by Judas Iscariot.

As bad as the praise of the sacrilegious blasphemy offered by Jill Jacobs Stevenson Biden and French President Emanuel Macron and others is, however, the silence of the man that most people Whin the world believe is “Pope Francis” speaks volumes about his own indifference to that which offends God as his own personal first commandment is “Thou shalt not offend anyone or anything by disparaging ‘diversity’ and ‘inclusion.’” Jorge Mario Bergoglio was probably not offended in the slightest by the Parisian blasphemy and it is even quite probably that he had the same kind of reaction as Jill Jacobs Stevenson Biden and Emanuel Macron themselves.

Pope Leo the Great, however, has something to say to Senor Jorge about his silence in the face of the sort of patent, malicious wickedness that went so far as to publicly promote one of the four sins that cry out to Heaven for vengeance while simultaneously mocking Our Lord’s institution of the Holy Eucharist and the Holy Priesthood:

But it is vain for them to adopt the name of catholic, as they do not oppose these blasphemies: they must believe them, if they can listen so patiently to such words. (Pope Saint Leo the Great, Epistle XIV, To Anastasius, Bishop of Thessalonica, St. Leo the Great | Letters 1-59 )

Even by omission, of course, Jorge Mario Bergoglio is a blasphemer, a man who has himself made “jokes” about Our Lord’s Crucifixion and who has suggested that Our Lady despaired while she stood so valiantly at the foot of her Divine Son’s Holy Cross on Good Friday. What happened during the opening ceremonies of the 2024 Summer Olympics does not bother him in the least. Like things occur fairly regularly within some of his conciliar churches, especially in Germany and Austria. Jorge Mario Bergoglio is perfectly sanguine about sacrilege as he is a Jacobin revolutionary who hates that which is sacred and revels in almost all that is profane and scurrilous.

By way of contrast, the man who appointed Bergoglio to be a "bishop" and then elevated him to the conciliar college of "cardinals," Karol Joszef Wojtyla/John Paul II, was unstinting in his criticism of a sodomite "pride" parade that took place in Rome on Sunday, July 9, 2000:

In the name of the Church of Rome I can only express my deep sadness at the affront to the Great Jubilee of the Year 2000 and the offence to the Christian values of a city that is so dear to the hearts of Catholics throughout the world.

The Church cannot be silent about the truth, because she would fail in her fidelity to God the Creator and would not help to distinguish good from evil.

In this regard, I wish merely to read what is said in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, which, after noting that homosexual acts are contrary to the natural law, then states: "The number of men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies is not negligible. This inclination, which is objectively disordered, constitutes for most of them a trial. They must be accepted with respect, compassion and sensitivity. Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided.

These persons are called to fulfil God's will in their lives and, if they are Christians, to unite to the sacrifice of the Lord's Cross the difficulties they may encounter from their condition" (CCC, n. 2358). (Angelus, 9 July 2000.)

Even though he couched his remarks in conciliarspeak, Wojtyla/John Paul II at least spoke out about the sodomite spectacle that took place in Rome, although it should be noted that he was one responsible for stripping Rome of its status as a holy city when the promulgated the Lateran Concordat of 1984 and for eliminating Catholicism as the official religion of Italy:

1.  With Reference to Article 1

The principle, originally stated in Lateran treaties, that the Catholic religion is the sole religion of the Italian state is no longer in force. (1984 Revisions to the 1929 Lateran Concordat.)

Indeed, the late Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, the founder of the Gallicanist Society of Saint Pius X, correctly pointed out to Joseph “Cardinal” Ratzinger in 1987 that the future “Pope Benedict XVI” was working to-Christianize society, something that should have taught His Excellency that he was not dealing with an official of the Catholic Church:

Under pressure, Rome gave in. On July 14, Cardinal Ratzinger received Archbishop Lefebvre at the Holy Office. At first the Cardinal persisted in arguing that "the State is competent in religious matters."

"But the State must have an ultimate and eternal end," replied the Archbishop.

"Your Grace, that is the case for the Church, not the State. By itself the State does not know."

Archbishop Lefebvre was distraught: a Cardinal and Prefect of the Holy Office wanted to show him that the State can have no religion and cannot prevent the spread of error. However, before talking about concessions, the Cardinal made a threat: the consequence of an illicit episcopal consecration would be "schism and excommunication."

"Schism?" retorted the Archbishop. "If there is a schism, it is because of what the Vatican did at Assisi and how you replied to our Dubiae: the Church is breaking with the traditional Magisterium. But the Church against her past and her Tradition is not the Catholic Church; this is why being excommunicated by a liberal, ecumenical, and revolutionary Church is a matter of indifference to us."

As this tirade ended, Joseph Ratzinger gave in: "Let us find a practical solution. Make a moderate declaration on the Council and the new missal a bit like the one that Jean Guitton has suggested to you. Then, we would give you a bishop for ordinations, we could work out an arrangement with the diocesan bishops, and you could continue as you are doing. As for a Cardinal Protector, and make your suggestions."

How did Marcel Lefebvre not jump for joy? Rome was giving in! But his penetrating faith went to the very heart of the Cardinal's rejection of doctrine. He said to himself: "So, must Jesus no longer reign? Is Jesus no longer God? Rome has lost the Faith. Rome is in apostasy. We can no longer trust this lot!" To the Cardinal, he said:

"Eminence, even if you give us everything--a bishop, some autonomy from the bishops, the 1962 liturgy, allow us to continue our seminaries--we cannot work together because we are going in different directions. You are working to dechristianize society and the Church, and we are working to Christianize them.

"For us, our Lord Jesus Christ is everything. He is our life. The Church is our Lord Jesus Christ; the priest is another Christ; the Mass is the triumph of Jesus Christ on the cross; in our seminaries everything tends towards the reign of our Lord Jesus Christ. But you! You are doing the opposite: you have just wanted to prove to me that our Lord Jesus Christ cannot, and must not, reign over society.

Recounting this incident, the Archbishop described the Cardinal's attitude: "Motionless, he looked at me, his eyes expressionless, as if I had just suggested something incomprehensible or unheard of." Then Ratzinger tried to argue that "the Church can still say whatever she wants to the State," while Lefebvre, the intuitive master of Catholic metaphysics, did not lose sight of the true end of human societies: the Reign of Christ." Fr. de Tinguy hit the nail on the head when he said of Marcel Lefebvre: "His faith defies those who love theological quibbles." (His Excellency Bishop Bernard Tissier de Mallerais, The Biography of Marcel Lefebvre, Kansas City, Missouri: Angelus Press, 2004, pp. 547-548.) 

It is important to note that a “revolutionary” church cannot be the Catholic Church. Saint Pius X taught Catholicism is the very foundation of social order:

Here we have, founded by Catholics, an inter-denominational association that is to work for the reform of civilization, an undertaking which is above all religious in character; for there is no true civilization without a moral civilization, and no true moral civilization without the true religion: it is a proven truth, a historical fact. (Pope Saint Pius X, Notre Charge Apostolique, August 15, 1910.)

No, Venerable Brethren, We must repeat with the utmost energy in these times of social and intellectual anarchy when everyone takes it upon himself to teach as a teacher and lawmaker - the City cannot be built otherwise than as God has built it; society cannot be setup unless the Church lays the foundations and supervises the work; no, civilization is not something yet to be found, nor is the New City to be built on hazy notions; it has been in existence and still is: it is Christian civilization, it is the Catholic City. It has only to be set up and restored continually against the unremitting attacks of insane dreamers, rebels and miscreants. omnia instaurare in Christo. (Pope Saint Pius X, Notre Charge Apostolique, August 15, 1910.)

There is nothing Catholic to be found in the teaching of the conciliar “popes” on the necessity of reclaiming cities and nations for Christ the King and His true Church. The conciliar revolutionaries have shown themselves to be the haters of the Holy Faith and of the true God Who has entrusted to the Catholic Church His Sacred Deposit of Faith.

Once Catholic Paris has come to stand for the triumph of the “Rights of Man” as its philosophes and revolutionaries made war against the Rights of God and His Holy Church by putting to death thousands upon thousands of innocent human beings who were said to be “counter-revolutionaries.” Priests and consecrated religious were persecuted and killed. Members of the laity were persecuted and killed. The blood shed so tragically in Paris last evening, Friday, November 13, 2015, is but a continuation of the bloodletting that has been taking place in Paris ever since the storming of the Bastille on July 14, 1789, that inaugurated a supposedly “new era” to which the counterfeit church of conciliarism made its “official reconciliation” by means of Gaudium et Spes, December 7, 1965, the Feast of Saint Ambrose and the Commemoration of the Vigil of the Feast of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary:

Let us be content to say here that the text serves as a countersyllabus and, as such, represents on the part of the Church, an attempt at an official reconciliation with the new era inaugurated in 1789. Only from this perspective can we understand, on the one hand, the ghetto-mentality, of which we have spoken above; only from this perspective can we understand, on the other hand, the meaning of the remarkable meeting of the Church and the world. Basically, the word "world" means the spirit of the modern era, in contrast to which the Church's group-consciousness saw itself as a separate subject that now, after a war that had been in turn both hot and cold, was intent on dialogue and cooperation. From this perspective, too, we can understand the different emphases with which the individual parts of the Church entered into the discussion of the text. While German theologians were satisfied that their exegetical and ecumenical concepts had been incorporated, representatives of Latin American countries, in particular, felt that their concerns, too, had been addressed, topics proposed by Anglo-Saxon theologians likewise found strong expression, and representatives of Third World countries saw, in the emphasis on social questions, a consideration of their particular problems. (Joseph Ratzinger, Principles of Catholic Theology, pp. 381-382)

Pope Leo XIII denounced efforts to "reconcile the maxims of the Gospel with those of the revolution" that seeks to "reocncile Christ and Belial, the Church of God and the state without God":

Everyone should avoid familiarity or friendship with anyone suspected of belonging to masonry or to affiliated groups. Know them by their fruits and avoid them. Every familiarity should be avoided, not only with those impious libertines who openly promote the character of the sect, but also with those who hide under the mask of universal tolerance, respect for all religions, and the craving to reconcile the maxims of the Gospel with those of the revolution. These men seek to reconcile Christ and Belial, the Church of God and the state without God. (Pope Leo XIII, Custodi Di Quella Fede, December 8, 1892.)

Ah, the “reconciliation” celebrated by the “restorer of tradition,” Joseph Alois Ratzinger/Benedict XVI, who eschewed the supposed more radical elements of the French Revolution as opposed to the American Revolution, which readers of this site undermined the integrity of the Holy Faith in this country by lulling Catholics into silence about their Faith in public in exchange for the ability to live without overt, state-sponsored persecution (noting that great acts of violence were committed by mobs against Catholics in this country in the Nineteenth Century), was nothing other than a reconciliation between Christ and Belial.

Paris: The Seat of Antitheism and Yet the Hope for the Time to Come

Paris had become a sewer of sacrilege and blasphemy in the three years before the French Constitution of 1792 and the three-year Reign of Terror that began in the same year.

Unspeakable acts of sacrilege occurred on the high altar of the Cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris had been committed in the name of the “Rights of Man” in the French Revolution’s violent war against God and sacred shrines as the relics of saints were treated the same contempt with which the Jews had treated Our Lord prior to their being burned in an effort to obliterate their memories and to rip out all devotion to them in the hearts of the “new citizen” in a land of “egalitarianism” where only those who agreed with the principles and tactics of the revolution had “equal rights” as these “new citizens”:

After the cathedral was plundered, it became the stage for a packed public event in which a seductively dressed actress portraying the Goddess of Reason was worshiped atop a mountain. Enlightenment philosophers’ busts and statues of the Liberty replaced religious statues, and seductively dressed women danced and sang songs extolling the revolution. The centuries-old cathedral was renamed the Temple of Reason. Almost everything inside was looted aside from its bells.

Eventually, dechristianization extended all the way to instituting a new, atheist state “religion” devoted to revolution. That concept was controversial though, and eventually, Maximilien de Robespierre proposed The Cult of the Supreme Being, a civic religion that allowed for the existence of a god but was rooted in revolutionary concepts. In 1794, Paris hosted the Festival of the Supreme Being, a massive celebration that included music, parades and pageantry.

Despite revolutionaries’ determination to stamp out Catholicism for good, most French people stuck to their religious beliefs. “Parents refused to send their children to be instructed in the new civic religion; attendance for civil services and government festivals was chronically low,” writes historian Justin Dunn. “Catholicism proved to be the stabilizing element that many segments of society could cling to amidst the storm of upheaval and change that was the French Revolution.” (The Notre Dame Cathedral Was Nearly Destroyed By French Revolutionary Mobs.)

There is a direct connection between the sacrileges that took place at the Cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris on November 10, 1793, and the carefully planned and orchestrated act of sacrilegious mockery that took place in Paris on July 27, 2024, as the French Revolution’s hatred of God—its Antitheism as the late Father Vincent Miceli called it in his book The Gods of Atheism—took deep roots in France and spread from there throughout the rest of the world, something that Father Denis Fahey noted in The Mystical Body of Christ in the Modern World:

By the grace of the Headship of the Mystical Body, our Lord Jesus Christ is both Priest and King of redeemed mankind and, as such, exercises a twofold influence upon us. Firstly, as a Priest, He communicates to us the supernatural life of grace by which we, while ever remaining distinct from God, can enter into the vision and love of the Blessed Trinity. We can thus become one with God, not, of course, in the order of substance or being, but in the order of operation, of the immaterial union of vision and love. The Divine Nature is the principle of the Divine Vision and Love, and by grace we are ‘made partakers of the Divine Nature.’ This pure Catholic doctrine is infinitely removed from Masonic pantheism. Secondly, as King, our Lord exercises an exterior influence on us by His government of us. As King, He guides and directs us socially and individually, in order to dispose all things for the reception of the Supernatural Life which He, as Priest, confers.

Society had been organized in the thirteenth century and even down to the sixteenth, under the banner of Christ the King. Thus, in spite of deficiencies and imperfections, man’s divinization, through the Life that comes from the sacred Humanity of Jesus, was socially favoured. Modern society, under the influence of Satan, was to be organized on the opposite principle, namely, that human nature is of itself divine, that man is God, and, therefore, subject to nobody. Accordingly, when the favourable moment had arrived, the Masonic divnization of human nature found its expression in the Declaration of the Rights of Man in 1789. The French Revolution ushered in the struggle for the complete organization of the world around the new divinity–Humanity. In God’s plan, the whole organization of a country is meant to aid the development of a country is meant to aid the development of the true personality of the citizens through the Mystical Body of Christ. Accordingly, the achievement of true liberty for a country means the removal of obstacles to the organized social acceptance of the Divine Plan. Every revolution since 1789 tends, on the contrary, to the rejection of that plan, and therefore to the enthronement of man in the place of God. The freedom at which the spirit of the revolution aims is that absolute independence which refuses submission to any and every order. It is the spirit breathed by the temptation of the serpent: ‘For God doth know that in what day soever you shall eat thereof, your eyes shall be opened; and you shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.’ Man decided then that he would himself lay down the order of good and evil in the place of God; then and now it is the same attitude. (Father Denis Fahey, The Mystical Body of Christ in the Modern World, p. 27.)

The Church, then, is Christ continuing His mission on earth of drawing souls into union with the Father, into the family of the Blessed Trinity. We are not, therefore, fully attentive to the life of the Church, if we content ourselves with accepting what is defined by her and accomplishing certain ritual practices at stated intervals. A fortiori we are out of touch with the Church’s life, if we allow the spirit of the French Revolution into our hearts and thus come to imagine that the Church, by which Christ elevates our natural life and heals its wounds, is in any way an enemy of our rightful development and of our true personal self-expression. The Church is the Body of Christ and in it Christ is living again Bethlehem, Nazareth and Calvary. All the members of the Body are meant to live in union of faith and love with Christ, represented by the Heads of the Church.

We can thus have a better grasp of the honor of Luther’s attack on the Visible Body of Christ and of the significance of the proclamation of the supremacy of naturalism at the French Revolution. As the nineteenth century advanced and the mentality resulting from the revolt against the Divine Plan spread, many errors against the life of the Mystical Body were diffused abroad, so that even Catholics ran the risk of being contaminated. In the Syllabus, Pope Pius IX catalogued these errors, especially, but not exclusively, in regard to the rights of the Mystical Body and to politics, thus giving to Catholics a negative test of their fidelity to Christ the King. If anyone holds any of these propositions, he has to that extent passed from under the rule of the great Captain, Christ. (Father Denis Fahey, The Mystical Body of Christ in the Modern World, pp. 145-146.)

The “freedoms” let loose by means of the French Revolution included that of blaspheming Christ the King and His Most Blessed Mother, something that was on full display two days in Paris. No one is “free” to blaspheme the Divine Redeemer and His Most Blessed Mother. Yet is that the putative “pope” bites his tongue, his “bishops” in France express their “regret” at what happened, and most Catholics are more interested in the “games” than in recognizing blasphemy for what it is.

Then again, it is entirely unsurprising that Catholics accept blasphemies against the Divine Redeemer and His Most Immaculate Mother in the name of “freedom of the press” and “freedom of speech” when their “popes” and “bishops” have given them a steady stream of blasphemous words and sacrilegious actions over the course of the past sixty-six years.

How is it possible for ordinary Catholics to recognize and reject blasphemy when the men who are their “leaders” are blasphemers and countenance blasphemy, indecency, immodesty and vice under cover of the civil of law and all throughout what passes for “popular culture.” The situation is so bad today that Catholics don’t even think about making reparation for acts of blasphemy against Our Lord, Our Lady and Holy Mother Church.

Unlike Mohammedans and other infidels, Catholics do not seek to kill those who blaspheme the true God of Divine Revelation, the Most Blessed Trinity, although it was once the case in Catholic France that such blasphemers were punished by the civil authority (noting that Saint Louis IX accepted papal correction from Pope Clement IV for the harsh measures he, Saint Louis, had taken against blasphemers). Catholics seek to pray for the conversion of those who blaspheme as they spend time in prayer, if possible, before the Most Blessed Sacrament and to Our Lady, especially through her Most Holy Rosary, for their conversion and to make reparation for these offenses against the Divine majesty.

Pope Pius VII, who had been the prisoner of the man who exploited the “principles” of the French Revolution, Napoleon Bonaparte, explained what would happen in France because of the religious liberty granted by the Constitutional Charter that had been approved by King Louis XVIII at the behest of the Congress of Vienna in 1814:

For how can We tolerate with equanimity that the Catholic religion, which France received in the first ages of the Church, which was confirmed in that very kingdom by the blood of so many most valiant martyrs, which by far the greatest part of the French race professes, and indeed bravely and constantly defended even among the most grave adversities and persecutions and dangers of recent years, and which, finally, that very dynasty to which the designated king belongs both professes and has defended with much zeal - that this Catholic, this most holy religion, We say, should not only not be declared to be the only one in the whole of France supported by the bulwark of the laws and by the authority of the Government, but should even, in the very restoration of the monarchy, be entirely passed over? But a much more grave, and indeed very bitter, sorrow increased in Our heart - a sorrow by which We confess that We were crushed, overwhelmed and torn in two - from the twenty-second article of the constitution in which We saw, not only that "liberty of religion and of conscience" (to use the same words found in the article) were permitted by the force of the constitution, but also that assistance and patronage were promised both to this liberty and also to the ministers of these different forms of "religion". There is certainly no need of many words, in addressing you, to make you fully recognize by how lethal a wound the Catholic religion in France is struck by this article. For when the liberty of all "religions" is indiscriminately asserted, by this very fact truth is confounded with error and the holy and immaculate Spouse of Christ, the Church, outside of which there can be no salvation, is set on a par with the sects of heretics and with Judaic perfidy itself. For when favour and patronage is promised even to the sects of heretics and their ministers, not only their persons, but also their very errors, are tolerated and fostered: a system of errors in which is contained that fatal and never sufficiently to be deplored HERESY which, as St. Augustine says (de Haeresibus, no.72), "asserts that all heretics proceed correctly and tell the truth: which is so absurd that it seems incredible to me." (Pope Pius VII, Post Tam Diuturnas, April 29, 1814, POST TAM DIUTURNAS)

Pope Saint Pius X, writing to condemn the complete separation of Church and State in France in 1905, explained the bitter consequences would befall the French people by refusing to submit humbly to the Social Reign of Christ the King as It must be exercised by His true Church:

17. The vague and ambiguous-wording of some of its articles places the end pursued by our enemies in a new light. Their object is, as we have already pointed out, the destruction of the Church and the dechristianization of France, but without people's attending to it or even noticing it. If their enterprise had been really popular, as they pretend it to be, they would not have hesitated to pursue it with visor raised and to take the whole responsibility. But instead of assuming that responsibility, they try to clear themselves of it and deny it, and in order to succeed the better, fling it upon the Church their victim. This is the most striking of all the proofs that their evil work does not respond to the wishes of the country.

18. It is in vain that after driving Us to the cruel necessity of rejecting the laws that have been made -- seeing the evils they have drawn down upon the country, and feeling the universal reprobation which, like a slow tide, is rising round them -- they seek to lead public opinion astray and to make the responsibility for these evils fall upon Us. Their attempt will not succeed.

19. As for Ourselves, We have accomplished Our duty, as every other Roman Pontiff would have done. The high charge with which it has pleased Heaven to invest Us, in spite of Our unworthiness, as also the Christian faith itself, which you profess with Us, dictated to Us Our conduct. We could not have acted otherwise without trampling under foot Our conscience, without being false to the oath which We took on mounting the chair of Peter, and without violating the Catholic hierarchy, the foundation given to the Church by our Savior Jesus Christ.

We await, then, without fear, the verdict of history. History will tell how We, with Our eyes fixed immutably upon the defense of the higher rights of God, have neither wished to humiliate the civil power, nor to combat a form of government, but to safeguard the inviolable work of Our Lord and Master Jesus Christ. It will say that We have defended you, Our beloved sons, with all the strength of Our great love; that what We have demanded and now demand for the Church, of which the French Church is the elder daughter and an integral part, is respect for its hierarchy and inviolability of its property and liberty; that if Our demand had been granted religious peace would not have been troubled in France, and that, the day it is listened to that peace so much desired will be restored in the country.

20. And, lastly, history will say, that if, sure beforehand of your magnanimous generosity. We have not hesitated to tell you that the hour for sacrifice had struck, it is to remind the world, in the name of the Master of all things, that men here below should feed their minds upon thoughts of a higher sort than those of the perishable contingencies of life, and that the supreme and intangible joy of the human soul on earth is that of duty supernaturally carried out, cost what it may and so God honored, served and loved, in spite of all. (Pope Saint Pius X, Une Fois Encore, January 6, 1907.)

The verdict of history is clearly on the side of the great Pope Saint Pius X. Pope Saint Pius X manfully defended the Social Reign of Christ the King that has been abandoned and flushed down the Orwellian memory hole by the conciliar revolutionaries. The conciliar “popes” have celebrated the triumph of the very false principles condemned by our true popes and that have been championed by the lords of Modernity, including those of the ever-so-tolerant France of revolutionary principles who have welcomed Mohammedans into their country with great liberality only to suffer liberally at their hands.

Prophetically, Pope Saint Pius X condemned the efforts on the part of The Sillon to “reconcile” the “spirit of the French Revolution” with the Catholic Faith. Pope Saint Pius X’s prophetic words condemned conciliarism’s adoption of The Sillon’s “spirit of reconciliation” that have seen conciliar “popes” and “cardinals” extol Mohammedanism and is “role” to promote “religion” in civil society:

Here we have, founded by Catholics, an inter-denominational association that is to work for the reform of civilization, an undertaking which is above all religious in character; for there is no true civilization without a moral civilization, and no true moral civilization without the true religion: it is a proven truth, a historical fact. The new Sillonists cannot pretend that they are merely working on “the ground of practical realities” where differences of belief do not matter. Their leader is so conscious of the influence which the convictions of the mind have upon the result of the action, that he invites them, whatever religion they may belong to, “to provide on the ground of practical realities, the proof of the excellence of their personal convictions.” And with good reason: indeed, all practical results reflect the nature of one’s religious convictions, just as the limbs of a man down to his finger-tips, owe their very shape to the principle of life that dwells in his body.

This being said, what must be thought of the promiscuity in which young Catholics will be caught up with heterodox and unbelieving folk in a work of this nature? Is it not a thousand-fold more dangerous for them than a neutral association? What are we to think of this appeal to all the heterodox, and to all the unbelievers, to prove the excellence of their convictions in the social sphere in a sort of apologetic contest? Has not this contest lasted for nineteen centuries in conditions less dangerous for the faith of Catholics? And was it not all to the credit of the Catholic Church? What are we to think of this respect for all errors, and of this strange invitation made by a Catholic to all the dissidents to strengthen their convictions through study so that they may have more and more abundant sources of fresh forces? What are we to think of an association in which all religions and even Free-Thought may express themselves openly and in complete freedom? (Pope Saint Pius X, Notre Charge Apostolique, August 15, 1910.)

Conciliarism’s respect for the false principles of “liberty, equality, fraternity” have played a very significant role in de-Catholicizing France. The contraception and abortion of the Holy Faith in this once great Catholic kingdom led French Catholics to practice contraception and to have abortions to such an extent that a need for non-French workers, including were Mohammedans who came from formerly French colonies or territories after having fought for France against various independence movements, arose. The Mohammedans thus were able to vanquish France by means of lax immigration laws and the cowardice of her own agnostic politicians, thus winning by means of public policies and by procreation what they had lost to Charles Martel at the Battle of Tours (Poitiers) on October 10, 732.

Pope Pius X explained in Pascendi Dominici Gregis, September 8, 1907, that Modernism leads ultimately to the triumph of all false religions in the world, thus paving the way for the triumph of the secularism heralded by the lords of Judeo-Masonry in the world and the scions of conciliarism alike:

How far this position is removed from that of Catholic teaching! We have already seen how its fallacies have been condemned by the Vatican Council. Later on, we shall see how these errors, combined with those which we have already mentioned, open wide the way to Atheism. Here it is well to note at once that, given this doctrine of experience united with that of symbolism, every religion, even that of paganism, must be held to be true. What is to prevent such experiences from being found in any religion? In fact, that they are so is maintained by not a few. On what grounds can Modernists deny the truth of an experience affirmed by a follower of Islam? Will they claim a monopoly of true experiences for Catholics alone? Indeed, Modernists do not deny, but actually maintain, some confusedly, others frankly, that all religions are true. That they cannot feel otherwise is obvious. For on what ground, according to their theories, could falsity be predicated of any religion whatsoever? Certainly it would be either on account of the falsity of the religious .sense or on account of the falsity of the formula pronounced by the mind. Now the religious sense, although it maybe more perfect or less perfect, is always one and the same; and the intellectual formula, in order to be true, has but to respond to the religious sense and to the believer, whatever be the intellectual capacity of the latter. In the conflict between different religions, the most that Modernists can maintain is that the Catholic has more truth because it is more vivid, and that it deserves with more reason the name of Christian because it corresponds more fully with the origins of Christianity. No one will find it unreasonable that these consequences flow from the premises. But what is most amazing is that there are Catholics and priests, who, We would fain believe, abhor such enormities, and yet act as if they fully approved of them. For they lavish such praise and bestow such public honor on the teachers of these errors as to convey the belief that their admiration is not meant merely for the persons, who are perhaps not devoid of a certain merit, but rather for the sake of the errors which these persons openly profess and which they do all in their power to propagate. (Pope Saint Pius X, Pascendi Dominici Gregis, September 8, 1907.)

Pope Saint Pius X’s description of Modernism’s respect for false religions has been demonstrated by each of the conciliar “popes” as they have lavished upon heretics and infidels without distinction.

In particular, of course, the conciliar “popes” have gone to great lengths to indemnify Talmudists and Mohammedans in their murderous ways, refusing to accept any claim that violence is inherent in each. The conciliar “popes” and “bishops,” echoing the likes of Presidents George Walker Bush and Barack Hussein Obama/Barry Soetoro, have called Mohammedanism a “religion of peace” that is “defamed” by supposed “extremists” who are, of course, nothing other than faithful, believing disciples of the false “prophet” Mohammed.

As we know, of course, believing Mohammedans, however, are not interested in “coexistence.” They are interested in conquest, nothing else, and to this end they are taking full advantage of the blindness of both the lords of Modernity in the world and those of Modernism in the counterfeit church of conciliarism. The ultimate expression of this conquest will be nothing short of Rome itself, which has already become the seat of Antipopes, who are preparing the way very able for the coming of Antichrist himself.

Many private revelations have contained messages that France will be at the epicenter of the battle between a Catholic monarch and Antichrist. Before this can happen, however, the precursors of Antichrist and Antichrist himself must destroy all false religions, including the “religions” represented by Judeo-Masonic ideologies, thereby setting the stage between the final battle between Antichrist and the Catholic Church, now in its mystical burial in the underground during this time of apostasy and betrayal.

Sister Mary of Saint Peter related the revelation given to her by Our Lord on March 29, 1847, that believing Catholics must forge their will against His enemies by their united prayers in reparation to His Face for the crimes they commit against Him to expedite the day when these enemies will destroy each other in fierce battles:

Revelation of March 29, 1847

The Saviour enjoins Sister Mary through her prayers and the instruments of His Passion to make was on the Communists who are the enemies of the Church and her Christ. He tells her that whereas the weapons of the enemy inflict death, the weapons of His Passion restore life. This revelation strikes an unprecedented peak stressing the militancy of the Church on earth, as it demonstrates the power of the individual soul to forge her WILL against the powers of evil through prayer. It must be so for, after all the battle real and actual which goes on between the Church and hell is not a battle of guns and mobilized divisions in uniform, for Satan has none of these at his disposal, but he employs only his formidable WILL of evil to spread disaster. Coping with this force, the Church's militant members forge their WILLS of good, through Christ, to defeat the powers of the infernal regions.

Today after Holy Communion our Lord gave me a new mission, one which ought to frighten me, yet since I know I am nothing but a weak instrument in His hands, I am perfectly at peace.

Our Lord commanded me to make was on the Communists because He said they were the enemies of the Church and of her Christ. He told me also that most of these wolfish men who are now Communists had been born in the Church whose bitter enemies they now openly declare themselves to be. Then our Saviour added:

“I have already told you that I hold you in My hands as an arrow. I now want to hurl this arrow against My enemies. To arm you for the battle ahead, I give you the weapons of My Passion, that is My Cross which these enemies dread and also the other instruments of My tortures. Go forward to meet these foes with the artlessness of a child, and the bravery of a courageous soldier. Receive for this mission the benediction of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.”

Having been favored with this communication, I frequently call on the Blessed Virgin to be the depositary of these sacred weapons which her Divine Son gave me since she is called the Tower of David on which hang a thousand bucklers.

Since our Saviour continued to grant me further lights on this subject I now said to Him. “Lord, give me a skillful hand and train me to use well these weapons which You have entrusted to me for the combat. “To this our Lord answered:

“The weapons of My enemies inflict death but My weapons give life.”

The following is the prayer I frequently recite to fulfill the mission entrusted to me:

“Eternal Father, I offer You the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ and all the other instruments of His Holy Passion, that You may put division in the camp of Your enemies, for as Your Beloved Son has said. 'A kingdom divided against itself shall fall.'” (The Golden Arrow: The Autobiography of and Revelation of Sister Mary of Saint Peter (1816-1848) On Devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus, edited by Dorothy Scallan and translated by Father Emeric B. Scallan, S.T.B., published originally by William Frederick Press, New York, New York, 1954, and republished by TAN Books and Publishers, Charlotte, North Carolina, 2012, pp. 202-203.)

A kingdom against itself cannot stand, of course, which is why Our Lord Himself ha put division in the camp of His enemies. We are witnessing this division, both here in the United States of America and all around the world and even within the ranks of the false conciliar sect that is chewing itself apart (and will be greatly divided to the point possibly of schism if Jorge Mario Bergoglio is killed by Mohammedans in the Central African Republic). We had better be resolved to choose sides and not to equivocate about the truth of our situation by abandoning all pretense that the counterfeit church of conciliarism is the Catholic Church and/or that we can be friends "with the world" and its "entertainments" while remainging friends of Our Lord and His true Church.

Consider, for example, the story that Louis Martin told his wife Zelie about what Saint Bernadette Soubirou had said to a French commandant who had informed her that the Prussian Army had invaded Nevers, France, during the latter stages of the Franco-Prussian War:

True at the time, there seemed to be no question of any threat to the religious liberties of Europeans. The Franco-Prussian War seemed, on the surface, just like any other war that came to Europe from time to time during hundreds of years in the past. Neither could the Martins be expected to see, in 1870, the repercussions to all humanity from its aftermath, although their offspring was to witness deed of horror following close in its wake.

Yet it is important to note that Zelie and Louis, as did thousands of religious Frenchmen, sensing, as it were, a dawn of doom, began to hope for deliverance aside from that which they knew was not to be anticipated through any stroke of French military prowess. In one final gesture of trust in the power of prayer, they now turned their eyes to Bernadette, the seeress of Lourdes, to hold off military disaster for France. Could the nun of twenty-six, whose name was a household work throughout Europe, save her country from conquest?

Frenchmen now hope against hope that she could and would . . . . Zelie and Louis were among these until that fateful day when news reached Alencon  that Prussian troops were already inside the city of Nevers, where Sister Bernarde was stationed at the Motherhouse. Louis took a grim view of the situation and made no attempt to conceal his disquiet.

“Zelie, there is bad news from Nevers,” he announced, rushing into the parlor to acquaint her with the latest development on the the front.

“How bad?”

“The Prussians have occupied the city.”

“Oh, Bernadette did not save us. . . . .” moaned Zelie, tears gathering in her eyes. “Are there any details about her?”

“Yes. Reports are that our commandant went to the Motherhouse and asked to speak with Bernadette. He said: 'Sister the Prussians are now at the fates of our city. Tell me, are you not afraid?”

“And what did Bernadette say?”

“She answered: 'Sir, I fear only bad Catholics!”

“Oh Saviour, have pity of France,” cried Zelie. For a while neither spoke and only the clock on the wall ticked away loud seconds. Zelie was unwilling to say more in the presence of the children who stood around listening. Marie aged ten, and Pauline eight, could sense bad news and would worry over it. But on retiring that night, Zelie picked up the thread of their conversation.

“What do you suppose Sister Bernadette meant when she told the commandant that she feared only bad Catholics?”

“I don't know. It is a very difficult matter to understand.”

“But I think I have an explanation. She must have meant that if Catholics as a whole kept the laws of God and served Him as they should they would bring about many conversions and also establish a sort of balance between good and bad. In this way the evil deeds of the erring and misguided would be counteracted by the good deeds of the right-living. But, when Catholics themselves – who know better – join the ranks of those who through ignorance offend and abuse God's laws, what can ever a living Saint like Bernadette do?”

“You seem to explain this very well, Zelie. Surely, war is a punishment for sin. Good Catholics could avert it by serving God as they've been taught. Evidently that is the conclusion the saintly Bernadette came to draw for us.”

That night Lois reflected that the Church counts on the prayers and merits of the good within her fold, but when an overwhelming number of Catholics remain indifferent to god, then even a Saint or a small group of devout Christians her and ther are quite powerless to stay the hand of God. No, Bernadette was not able to avert military disaster for her country. Evidently too many wills opposed hers. The scales of justice were not balance and so it befell that the war broke out and many of the good had to suffer along with the bad. (Dorothy Scallan, The Whole World Will Love Me: The Life of St. Therese of the Child Jesus and of the Holy Face (1873-1897), published originally by The William-Frederick Press, New York, New York, 1954, under the author's pen name, Doris Sheridan, and republished by TAN Books and Publishers, Rockford, Illinois, pp. 41-43.)

Yes, the good must suffer with the bad, and few of us have been so “good” that we do not deserve to suffer death at the hands of infidels without a moment’s notice, which is why we need Our Lady’s help as never before.

We must remember that, as terrible as the times we live are, God has ordained each of us to live at precisely this time because He has work for us to do give Him honor and glory as the consecrated slaves of His Co-Equal, Co-Eternal Divine Son, Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary as we pray as many Rosaries each day as our state-in-life permits.

We have nothing to fear except the loss of our own immortal souls, and it is to allay our fears about the times in which we live that Our Lord, having plunged part of Paris into the dark shortly after His Last Supper was mocked and blasphemed by those steeped in perversion, showed us that the great Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Paris was still alit in the darkness that enveloped the area around it:

(As found at: Blackout in Paris: power outage strikes as Olympics kick-off.)

Do not be afraid. 

Those with wicked minds who conceive wicked things that please the wicked hearts of the worldly are in the darkness while, through no merit of our own, Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ has condescended to let us bask in His light so that we can beg His Most Blessed Mother to bring men out of their darkness in the light of the Holy Faith, without which it is impossible to see one's self or the world around us clearly for what it is.

As Our Lord Himself said to Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque:

"I will reign in spite of all who oppose Me." (quoted in: The Right Reverend Emile Bougaud. The Life of Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque, reprinted by TAN Books and Publishers in 1990, p. 361.)
