SSPX Erecting +Hounder Memorial
gloria.tv | July 4, 2024
The caption reads, "Help yourself, and make a donation to the memorial of His Excellency, Bishop Vitus Hounder."
The priest who sends this to me says it seems that this appeal and commemorative magazine appears at the front door of all SSPX chapels (not sure in which districts though).
Shameless posturing for Roman consumption: "We really, really love Novus Ordo bishops, and we'll give him a bigger memorial than that one guy who founded us. Look how well we're behaving, and how far all our faithful have come that this isn't an issue for them! You can give us formal recognition now!"

A reminder that Cardinal Müller appears to still be among those who love the Latin Mass but also love Vatican II as he has been known to quote Vatican II documents approvingly...
Cardinal Müller: Vatican official prefers empty churches to cathedrals full of people who reject New Mass
In an exclusive interview with LifeSiteNews, Cardinal Gerhard Müller relays a conversion he had with a Vatican official about the Traditional Latin Mass after the Chartres pilgrimage in France as well as the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the Holy Land.
Jul 3, 2024
(LifeSiteNews [adapted - not all hyperlinks included) — In an exclusive interview with LifeSiteNews reporter Maike Hickson, Cardinal Gerhard Müller discussed the attitude of some in the Vatican toward the Traditional Latin Mass following the Chartres pilgrimage in France, as well as the ongoing crises in Ukraine and the Holy Land.
Speaking to Hickson, Müller revealed that when he shared his joy at having participated in the recent Paris to Chartres pilgrimage, during which 20,000 young pilgrims packed Chartres Cathedral to attend the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM), an official of the Roman Dicastery for Divine Worship responded that it was more important that young people “respect” the New Mass.
Müller further elaborated that the unnamed Vatican official effectively said that young people who do not “respect” the New Mass might as well “not come” to church at all, and that an “empty church” would be preferable.
Müller expressed his disagreement with the statement, telling Hickson that such an attitude is contrary to good pastoral practice and that it effectively “excludes” those “true and good Catholics” who attend the ancient liturgy.
It is worth noting that despite the success of the traditional-minded Chartres pilgrimage, which LifeSite’s Paris correspondent Jeanne Smits heralded as a massive success that allowed the whole of France to see images of “thousands of young people who reject relativism and hedonism,” the Vatican seems intent on crushing the TLM.
Beyond the 2021 promulgation of Traditionis Custodes, which placed harsh restrictions on where TLMs can be celebrated and by whom, rumors have begun to swirl that an even harsher crackdown is forthcoming.
These rumors have been confirmed by renowned Vatican reporter Diane Montagna, who explained that unlike Traditionis Custodes, this new document, if promulgated, will eliminate all carve-outs for the TLM given to those operating within the diocesan structure, and would even “prohibit bishops from themselves celebrating or authorizing” the TLM, and “suspend existing permissions” for the Traditional Mass apart from those offered by ex-Ecclesia Dei communities.
Müller’s comments to Hickson mirror what he stated on June 29 while ordaining priests for the Institute of the Good Shepherd – a traditional Mass-celebrating community of priests – at their headquarters in Courtalain, France.
During his homily, Müller talked glowingly about the TLM while lamenting the opposition it faces in Rome, relaying what appears to be the same conversion he relayed to Hickson. In the homily, Müller quoted the unnamed Vatican official as saying that the Latin Mass presents a “greater danger to the unity of the Church” than no liturgy at all. [...]

PRESS RELEASE OF THE DICASTERY FOR THE DOCTRINE OF THE FAITH
Vatican press | July 5, 2024
On 4 July 2024, the Congress of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith met to conclude the extrajudicial penal process referred to in canon 1720 CIC against the Most Reverend Carlo Maria Viganò, titular Archbishop of Ulpiana, accused of the reserved delict of schism (canons 751 and 1364 CIC; art. 2 SST).
His public statements manifesting his refusal to recognize and submit to the Supreme Pontiff, his rejection of communion with the members of the Church subject to him, and of the legitimacy and magisterial authority of the Second Vatican Council are well known.
At the conclusion of the penal process, the Most Reverend Carlo Maria Viganò was found guilty of the reserved delict of schism.
The Dicastery declared the latae sententiae excommunication in accordance with canon 1364 § 1 CIC.
The lifting of the censure in these cases is reserved to the Apostolic See.
This decision was communicated to the Most Reverend Viganò on 5 July 2024.

Video exposes the disturbing creation of the fetal cell lines used by the medical industry
The video on the disturbing creation of fetal cell lines is the third in a series of pro-life animated shorts which reveal the ugly truth behind the abortion industry. The previous two episodes described surgical abortions and IVF.

Jul 3, 2024
(LifeSiteNews) — A new pro-life video follows the short lives of the babies aborted and experimented on to create the fetal cell lines used today in the medical industry.
On July 2, pro-life organization CHOICE42 released their latest animated short video titled “It’s OK,” which details the origins of five different fetal cell lines and how they were created from the victims of abortion.
“That’s me,” the video opens, with an animated picture of an aborted baby. “I’m Ellie. Don’t feel bad. It’s okay. It was a long time ago, 1962.”
“I just thought maybe you don’t know about me,” Ellie continued. “My parents didn’t want me, anyway. The doctor worked with scientists, and they took my organs out as soon as I was aborted.”
“It had to be done right away because the organs need to be fresh,” she continued.
The video is the third in a series of pro-life animated shorts which reveal the ugly truth behind the abortion industry. The previous two episodes described surgical abortions and IVF. The new video was premiered on The Steve Deace Show on The Blaze Network.
“I first became aware that fetuses were killed and harvested for fetal cell lines during COVID,” Laura Klassen, director and founder of CHOICE42 explained.
“When I began to research and explain my findings to others, they were always telling me, ‘Well, it’s ok because…’ and went on to list their justifications,” she continued. “Some said, ‘There was only one baby used in the 60s’. Others, ‘There aren’t any more babies being aborted for this today.’ Still others, ‘The doctors just used the dead tissue post-abortion.’”
“All false and none of it is ok,” she declared. “We need to stop justifying what happened to these 5 babies (and many others) and take a closer look at what is going on in the medical research world. It’s not ok that it happened in the 60s, and it’s not ok that it’s happening now.”
The video follows the short lives of Ellie, David, Johanna, Jordan, and Bo; five babies whose organs were harvested to produce fetal cell lines.
The cell lines have since been used in various medical experiments, especially in the production of vaccines. Cell lines from both Johanna and Jordan were used in the creation of the mRNA-based COVID vaccines.
Doctors and abortion advocates argue that the babies’ organs were harvested once and using cell lines from aborted babies does not lead to more babies being experimented on.
However, the video revealed that hundreds of babies are experimented on before a cell line is obtained, with 32 babies being experimented on in Ellie’s case and a total of 293 experiments being carried out to obtain Johanna’s cell line.
The most recent cell line comes from Bo, a baby killed in 2015 to replace the depleting cell line supply. Horrifically, the aborted babies’ cell lines are still for sale today.
Even more disturbing is the fact that the babies were experimented on while they were alive and were not given pain medications as it would “ruin the cells.”
Dr. Ian Donald, the pioneer of the ultrasound scanner, who witnessed the experiments carried out on Ellie, revealed, “Experiments were being performed on near-term alive aborted babies who were not even afforded the mercy of anesthetic as they writhed and cried in agony, and when their usefulness had expired, they were executed and discarded as garbage.”

Catholic parishioners in New York City are devastated after an unknown vandal recently beheaded a statue of Jesus in a fit of rage.
The incident took place at Holy Family Roman Catholic Church in the Queens neighborhood of Fresh Meadows on Sunday. The New York Police Department (NYPD) told Fox News Digital that the act took place shortly before 5:30 a.m.
"[A]n unknown individual intentionally damaged a statue by hitting it repeatedly with their shoe, outside of a church located at 175-20 74 Avenue," the police spokesperson said. "No injuries were reported as a result of this incident."
The destroyed statue depicted Jesus as a child, surrounded by Mary and Joseph. Blurry footage shows a suspect repeatedly hitting the statue's head with a shoe before walking away.
The Diocese of Brooklyn estimated that the damage inflicted on the statue will cost $20,000 to fix, according to FOX 5 New York. In a Facebook post, the Holy Family Roman Catholic Church said that the statue stood outside its doors for over 42 years.
"The parishioners are devastated, and shocked over this," the post read.
The NYPD Hate Crime Task Force is currently investigating the incident as a potential hate crime, and has not arrested any suspects yet. In a statement obtained by FOX 5, the church's pastor Fr. Sean Suckiel called the incident "unsettling."

"The Holy Family is the foundation of our faith community, and this statue holds special meaning to so many in our parish," the priest said. "This is a very unsettling incident, and those who attended Mass yesterday were shocked and horrified to find out this happened."
"We must pray for an increase in religious tolerance throughout our city."
Fox News Digital reached out to the Holy Family Roman Catholic Church and the Diocese of Brooklyn for comment, but has not heard back.
New York authorities are actively investigating the incident, and no additional details are available at this time.

Analysis: The Bishop of Rome |

THE BISHOP OF ROME
TIA | July 2, 2024
The Bishop of Rome is the name of a Vatican document of 146 pages issued on June 13, 2024, under the responsibility of Card. Kurt Koch, head of the original Secretariat for Christian Unity, an organ whose name changes so often that I am not keeping track of the new ones. Koch assures us that Pope Francis gave his full endorsement to the document (§10).
The goal of the document is to report and analyze the 30 responses the Vatican received to the request John Paul II made in the Encyclical Ut unum sint for other religions to give their opinions about what they believed should be changed in the Papacy so as to become palatable for them. Reporting and analyzing these responses is a pretext to present a plan for a new papacy, which follows the tenets of Progressivism and the ideals of Ecumenism.
Since Ut unum sint was published in May 1995, 29 years ago, to have only 30 answers in all this time is very little, but Koch believes that it constitutes a tremendous outcome, and writes exhaustively on the content of those answers.
Independent of those suggestions made by heretics, what counts is the degree of acceptance the progressivist Vatican gives to them, since it reveals its decision to change the Papacy. As far as I remember, this is the first time in the post-Vatican II phase of Church History that we have been presented with an encompassing official Vatican proposal to change the Papacy. 1 A fact that per se supposes the denial of the previous dogmas of Papal Infallibility, Papal Monarchy and Petrine Primacy understood as the full and supreme authority of Peter over the other Apostles.2
Denial of dogmas, let us not forget, is synonymous with apostasy.
False Presupposition
But before entering the analysis of The Bishop of Rome, let me establish a basic presupposition that I hope will help my reader to understand what is being proposed.
Before the Council, the Catholic Church would bring heretics back to the Faith by persuading them of their errors and explaining the marvel of the Catholic truth, which is the proper image and likeness of the Word of God.
Card. Kurt Koch, head of the Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity, is responsible for this document
During Vatican II and after it, the Conciliar Church’s ecumenism no longer gives a primordial place to the Catholic Faith. Alleging Charity, it puts the Faith in the shadow and seeks unity with all the heretics by waving the banner of the final unity of all religions. Toward this end, it tries to convince Catholics to give up those dogmas of the Faith for the sake of that dreamed-of unity.
Now, this presupposition is false because Faith precedes Charity – no one can love what he does not understand. Therefore, the whole conciliar ecumenical initiative to set aside the Faith to attract heretics in reality induces all Catholics to apostatize. It is the greatest apostasy in History. I suppose it is that Great Revolt or Great Apostasy predicted by St Paul. (2 Thes 2:3)
No Heretic is Open to the Truth
Entering the analysis of the document, I found nowhere in the quoted texts – and I believe Koch quoted every significant thing written in the responses, sometimes more than once – an openness on the part of the heretics to accept any Catholic dogma on the Papacy. On the contrary, their texts are filled with thorns against those indispensable dogmas.
Their position is: “If you want to change Catholic doctrine to please us, here are some points that we suggest, but do not ask us to change anything in our heretical doctrine.”
In brief, it is precisely the opposite of what should be done: It is an ecumenism not to bring heretics to the Catholic Faith, but to bring Catholics to heresy.
The Method
Different from Francis’ habitually messy documents, Koch’s paper is well-ordered and clear in its exposition.
To avoid proposing bold things himself, Koch breaks the heretics’ suggestions into parts and presents them in a convenient way for him to reach the conclusions he wants.
To start, he presents us the demands to reform the Papacy straight from the pens of the heretics, limiting himself to offering some explanations. Then, he starts to share a little more of his own ideas; by the end he is freely and fluently explaining in his own words what should be done to achieve the desired “Reunited Church,” under the pretext of pleasing the heretics.
The Content
Sifting from this document the principles and proposals, I will list them in the order of importance. The summary below will show my reader what is ready to be put in practice to achieve the destruction of the bi-millennial Catholic Papacy. The Bishop of Rome has a Proposal as an appendix with practical suggestions to be implemented in the Papacy in the 21st century.
The dogmas defined by Pius IX & Vatican I are now considered obsolete & unneeded: Apostasy
Principles
- The Pope cannot have full power or dominion over the Church (§41); nor can he have full authority in the Church (§§140-143, 175)
- The Papacy is not de iure divino or established by Our Lord, but rather it is de iure humano, a product of man in History (§166);
- The dogmas defined by Vatican I – Papal Infallibility and the Petrine Primacy – should be re-read and re-worded in function of their historical/cultural context (§§57-65, 146, 147, 178) and under the light of Vatican II (§66, 167, Proposal §14);
- Papal authority should be understood as self-renunciation or kenosis (§42); Peter’s role in strengthening the brethren is a leadership of service grounded in the consciousness of his own weakness and sinfulness (Proposal §28);
- Recognizing a certain papal authority does not imply accepting papal jurisdiction or government (§98);
- The Bishop of Rome has authority only in a synodal/collegial context: that is, as a member and head of the College of Bishops and a servant of universal communion (§112).
Proposals
- The Papal Primacy should be a ministry of unity among all “Christian” religions and a service of love (§3);
- The Papal Primacy should be delegated to the Pope by the College of Bishops, including the bishops or leaders of other “Christian” religions (§19);
- The primacy of the Bishop of Rome should be understood as the primacy of the Church, that is, there should be an interdependence between primacy and synodality at each level of the Church (Proposal §2);
- The governance of the Church, as well as the formulation of its infallible teaching, should also be collegial (Proposal § 20);
- The Synod of Bishops should be a deliberative body (Proposal §21); there should be a permanent synodal governing structure at the government of the entire Church (Proposal §22).
- Every Bishop and the entire College of Bishops should have responsibility for the entire Roman Catholic Church (§114);
- Bishops should be vicars of Christ, and not vicars of the Pope (§1);
- The assemblies of Bishops should have the competence to appoint bishops, change the liturgy and catechesis, organize the churches etc. (§132), including having the authority to change the doctrine (§135, Proposal §19);
- What can be decided upon and done in smaller units of ecclesial life ought not to be referred to Church leaders. Decisions should be made and activities carried out with a participation as broad as possible of the people of God (§§138, 180);
- The present day relationship of the Eastern Catholic Churches with Rome – the Uniates – cannot be recognized as a model for the future communion with the “Christian” churches (§§130, 131).
Benedict XVI addressing Protestants at the Lutheran temple in Rome: the Primacy of love...
This is basically the content of The Bishop of Rome.
We see that it is the blueprint for the leadership of a Panreligion which should serve the long desired revolutionary One World Order. It no longer has anything to do with Holy Mother Church, in whose defense we are committed to fight until the last breath of our life.
1. The Encyclical Ut unum sint sketched only some general outlines regarding primacy versus collegiality inside the Church and a primacy as service toward the false religions. It left the door open for heretics to express their ideas and eventually to incorporate thos suggestions.
2. In Animus Delendi I, volume IV of my collection on the Council, there is an encompassing exposé of the progressivist plan to self-destroy the monarchical character of the Church (chap. IV) and her magisterial character (chap. V). Both chapters transcribe a large number of texts by prelates & theologians attacking the three papal dogmas mentioned above.
