As repetition is the mother of learning and since a lot of readers forget what they read, this commentary, which is the fifth overall but the first since April 8, 2024, the Transferred Feast of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, contains a summary of important facts that need to be reviewed to avoid all emotionalism on the subject of the Zionist State of Israel’s continued genocide upon the people of Palestine.

The new material in this commentary includes contemporaneous documentation of the Talmudic hatred for Arabs in general and Palestinians in particular. It is not to justify attacks upon innocent Israelis to provide documentation of how their government’s response to such attacks by men who, like they, have souls that are slaves to the devil by means of Original Sin and are further ravaged by the effects of what are Mortal Sins in the objective order of things even though they are unaware of what this means, practice, torture, pillaging, and mass murder to achieve vengeance.

The dehumanization of the Palestinians by the Israeli’s is so deeply entrenched that members of the Israeli Defense Force take videos of their destruction of residences and the obliteration if entire cities. This is all diabolical.

There will never be peace in the Holy Land or anywhere else in the world until all men exclaim, “Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini, Hosanna in Excelsis!”

Our Lady, Mother of the Divine Shepherd, pray for us.

Pope Saint Pius X, pray for us.

Unlike his immediate predecessor, Pope Leo XIII, and each of his three successors (Popes Benedict XV, Pius XI, and Pius XII), the former Giuseppe Melchiorre Sarto was not in the diplomatic service of the Holy See at any time during the nearly forty-five years of his priesthood prior to his rather remarkable election as the Successor of Saint Peter on August 4, 1903. He was not prone to accept the word of diplomats, and he did not suffer lies and misrepresentations easily.

The farm boy from Riese, Italy, who served as a pastor of souls in a rough-and-tumble Italian cow town, Tombolo, and then in Salzano before becoming Bishop of Mantua and the Cardinal Patriarch of Venice, was always close to Our Lady. This tender devotion to Our Lady, which he learned from his saintly mother, helped him to keep close to the sheep even when he was the Vicar of Christ on earth.

Thanks to the sign given him by the life and death of Little Nellie of Holy God, Pope Saint Pius X was the advocate of early First Communion (and early Confirmation) and of frequent Communions. It is no accident at all that the now retired Joseph Ratzinger/Benedict XVI made no reference to the centenary of Pascendi Dominci Gregis on September 8, 2007. Ratzinger/Benedict made absolutely no reference on August 15, 2010, to the centenary of Pope Saint Pius X's Notre Charge Apostolique, which was a ringing condemnation of the false philosophy of the Sillon that is of the essence of conciliarism. He made no reference to the one hundredth anniversary of The Oath Against Modernism on September 1, 1910 (see Witness Against Benedict XVI: The Oath Against Modernism).

How could he?

He stands condemned by the very words in these documents issued by Pope Saint Pius X.

So does the man who ignored the one hundredth anniversary of Papa Sarto's death, Jorge Mario Bergolio, back on August 20, 2014.

The contrast between the Catholicism of Pope Saint Pius X, a defender of the Social Reign of Christ the King and the confessional Catholic civil state, and the conciliarism of Jorge Mario Bergoglio, who has denounced "restorationists" as "Pelagian" and "hard-headed" Pharisees while defending "healthy laicism" and "religious liberty" and the "separation of Church and State, could not be more clear.

Here is the Collect for today's feast in the Immemorial Mass of Tradition:

"O God, who for the defense of the Catholic Faith and the restoration of all things in Christ didst fill Saint Pius, Supreme Pontiff, with heavenly wisdom and apostolic courage: grant in Thy loving kindness that by following his teachings and examples we may attain eternal rewards. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, forever and ever. Amen."

Pope Saint Pius X opposed Modernism.

So must we as we refuse any "communion" at all with conciliarism or its false shepherds who are at war with the Catholic Faith.

This is a revised and enlarged reflection on Saint Stephen, King of Hungary, who was zealous to convert pagans to the true Faith and thus establish the peace and justice of Christ the King in his land. He is yet another contrast to concilairism's false doctrines of "religious liberty" and "separation of Church and State."

Part five of "Benedictus Qui Venit in Nomine Domini" will be published within twenty-four hours

Well, Donald John Trump has felt the heat, as the saying goes, and has seen the light.

That is, after making conflicting statements about how plans to vote on an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Florida that would overturn the state’s “heartbeat law," the former president, who probably "heard it” from various United States Senators, Representatives and pro-life leaders, now says that he will vote against the amendment.

In the process of making this announcement, however, former President Trump said that there must be something “in between” banning surgical baby-butchery in his first trimester and killing a baby before birth. There is nothing “in between.” All innocent human life is inviolable at all times without exception.

Part five of “Benedictus Qui Venit in Nomine Domini, Hosanna in Excelsis” has been delayed by the work of the last two days and it probably will not be posted until Tuesday, September 4, 2024.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Raymond Nonnatus, pray for us.

There are two reports concerning Donald John Trump's position on an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Florida repealing the Sunshine State's "heartbeat law," which forbids most baby-butchery after a baby's sixth week in the sanctuary of his mother's womb with the "exception" of when it is alleged that his mother's life is "endangered."

Trump suggested to NBC News that he would vote in favor of the amendment while he told The Daily Mail of London that he will come to a decision about the matter soon. In any event, despite this inconsistency, which reflects his desire to please everyone about baby-butchery, he was absolutely consistent in both interview on saying that six weeks is "too short."

No, it is too long as innocent human life is inviolable at all stages after conception until death without exception.

This is a very brief commentary, but I have stayed up to complete it because of the late-breaking news of Trump's most recent dumbing down of what it means to be "pro-life" after having scolded pro-life "extremists" who oppose "exceptions" to the binding precepts of the Fifth Commandment and after openly supporting the baby-killing practice of in vitro fertilization as well as "birth control."

Ah, yes, the "lesser of two evils."

I forgot.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Rose of Lima, T.O.P., pray for us.

Saints Felix and Adauctus, pray for us.

Jorge Mario Bergoglio, whose stage name is “Pope Francis,” used his general audience address of Wednesday, August 28, 2024, to say that anyone opposes mass migration is committing a “grave sin.” This is another instance of his epic election interference.

Another new—and very brief—commentary will be published within a few moments of this posting.

A republished reflection about Saint Rose of Lima, T.O.P., was posted a few moments ago.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saints Felix and Adauctus, pray for us.

This is a revised and enlarged version of my reflection on the life of Saint Rose of Lima, a member of the Third Order of Penance of the Order of Preachers of Saint Dominic de Guzman.

Among many other works in her devout life of prayer and austere penances, Saint Rose, who lived among a cluster of saints in Lima, Peru, exhorted the people of Lima to gather in their churches and pray their Rosaries to turn back a pending invasion of their city by a fleet of those virulent anti-Catholics, the Dutch Calvinists. Those hideous people with their diabolical beliefs that have nothing at all to do with Christianity turned back as a result of the Rosaries that were prayed to repel them in their designs to invade Lima and to sack Catholic churches and to desecrated the Most Blessed Sacrament images of the Mother of God.

May we pray to Saint Rose of Lima so that we will remain faithful to the daily recitation of Our Lady's Most Holy Rosary as the powerful weapon, after Holy Mass itself, to turn back the enemies of Christ the King in the world and in the counterfeit church of conciliarism.

Two new commentaries will be published within a few moments. Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Today is the Feast of the Decollation of Saint John the Baptist and the Commemoration of Saint Sabina. I am republishing a revised reflection on this feast.  

The next original article on this site will be part five of the occasional series, "Benedictus Qui Venit in Nomine Domini," about the continuing, indiscriminate barbarism being practiced by the Zionist Israelis upon all Palestinians.  

Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us now and at the hour of our death.

Saint John the Baptist, pray for us.

Saint Sabina, pray for us..

This is a brief reflection on the Feast of Saint Augustine of Hippo.

So, former President Donald John Trump has, in his own patented manner of narcissitic self-promotion, boasted that "my administration will be great for women and their reproductive freedom."

There is no such thing as "reproductive freedom," which is simply a euphemism to justify an outright rebellion against Holy Purity and the fulfillment of the ends for which Our Lord instituted Holy Matrimony for the bringing forth as many (or as few) children as He sees fit to bestow upon parents so that their children can give Him honor and glory in this life and be prepared to die in a state of Sanctifying Grace as members of His Holy Catholic Church and thus enjoy the citizenship of Heaven in the glory of His Beatific Vision for all eternity. 

Trump's increasingly bold attempts to appeal to those who will never accept him no matter how many times he speaks their language is precisely where "the lesser of two evils" must lead, and I hate to say I told you so, but I have been saying this for decades dating back at least forty years when I still a college professor and a candidate for public office. 

Then again, who wants to listen to me? 

Now, after having composed a few commentaries on this farce even after my self-imposed moratorium five weeks ago, I turn my attention to other subjects as Christ the King will lose on Tuesday, November 3, 2024, no matter who winds up winning the presidential election.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Louis IX, King of France, pray for us.

Pope Saint Zephyrinus, pray for us.
