I meant that the effect of the juxtaposition of solemn prayer and satire was, at least, irreverent. But you have withdrawn what some found most troublesome, for which I thank you. This is indeed a time of real crisis, and I do find many of the Holy Father's utterances and behaviour irritating, disheartening and deeply questionable. It causes me great grief but none of it makes me lose my faith in the promises of Christ to his Church. You say you consulted fellow "trads", and that may have been one of the problems. There is a head of steam among those who define themselves that way just now which can tending towards hysteria and even end in sedevacantism, which is in fact apostacy. (I am aware that some regular commenters are already in that spiritual limbo and sadly show clear signs of unbalance of mind). I admire Fr Hunwicke's careful approach that confronts and argues against nonsense and error, yet maintains respect for the office that ecclesiastical superiors do validly hold. God bless you.

Truth is demanding, I know you know that. To equate the criticism of a heresiarch with blaspheming Our Lord is basically the Novus Ordo moot. Anyone apologising for their idea of 'god' via the means of Bergoglio is...the mystery of iniquity comes to mind. If I have stopped making sense, then just ignore a silly comment. Nothing to stress about. <br /><br />Ad Beatissimi Apostolorum 1914 Pope Benedict XV, "Such is the nature of Catholicism that it does not admit of more or less, but must be held as a whole or as a whole rejected..."<br /><br />Pope Leo XIII Satis Cognitum: "There can be nothing more dangerous than those heretics who admit nearly the whole cycle of doctrine, and yet by one word, as with a drop of poison, infect the real and simple faith taught by our Lord and handed down by Apostolic tradition."<br />Our Lady of Good Success-pray for us.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14746510579669229511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2389530333077823143.post-3683551813623906832015-12-01T00:29:44.924+00:002015-12-01T00:29:44.924+00:00Dr Lamb, I presume?!! 😉 Hope you're keeping w...Dr Lamb, I presume?!! 😉 Hope you're keeping well.

You can and ought to make your point without attacking others especially on the basis of positions that you have falsely and absurdly implued that they hold. Don't you understand the criticisms were not to do with mocking Francis's evil-doing but with putting same in a prayer alongside serious invocations to Our Lord God. It is the irreverence to God, not Francis that is in issue. You should know me well enough after a few years commenting on Mr England's and others' good websites.

However, you did not do so with evil intent and have set the matter right.<br />With regard to Bergoglio - hilarious! As Fr. Faber says, no reason to coddle heretics:<br />“The crowning disloyalty to God is heresy. It is the sin of sins, the very loathsomest of things which God looks down upon in this malignant world. Yet how little do we understand of its excessive hatefulness!… “We look at it, and are calm. We touch it and do not shudder. We mix with it, and have no fear. We see it touch holy things, and we have no sense of sacrilege… “Our charity is untruthful because it is not severe; and it is unpersuasive, because it is not truthful… Where there is no hatred of heresy, there is no holiness."Peter Lambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17952041193215971470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2389530333077823143.post-14692567910426449572015-11-30T09:49:26.365+00:002015-11-30T09:49:26.365+00:00Folks with an investment in lies keep the damage h...Folks with an investment in lies keep the damage high.
