New Zealander of the Year Siouxsie Wiles unmasked |
Above, please see an illustration of hypocrisy. Dr Siouxsie Wiles, whose exuberant pink hair and eagerness to lecture us on lockdown makes her a media darling and something of a curiosity, is famous for saying things like "Please don't go out and chat with a friend. We need to physically disconnect for a while." Her friend on the beach is a journo, and so is another of the PM's paid propagandists.
But Siouxsie and friend's hypocrisy pales into insignificance compared with that of the Catholic Church in the Archdiocese of Wellington.
The Real Presence of Jesus Christ - Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity - is the source and summit of the Catholic faith. But Cardinal John Dew has locked Him up alone, inaccessible to the faithful, indefinitely. Even when our 'kind' Prime Minister says 50 people can enter. Even before Ardern shut us down. And now after she says we're open, we're shut. Why???
One parish priest in Cardinal Dew's domain (aka the Land of Mordor), having seen a tussie-mussie left at Our Lady's statue on her birthday, has gone so far as to change the lock on the church door so that the parishioner responsible can no longer visit Our Eucharist Lord.
The entire edifice of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church is built on belief in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. But Cardinal Dew, and the priests of the Wellington Archdiocese who have complied with his diktak and locked their churches, behave as if He is simply is not there.
They don't preach that He is there either, and the priest who changed the lock to prevent anyone who believes He is from getting in, has actually stated he doesn't believe Christ is present in the tabernacle. What does this priest imagine happens to the God he calls down upon the altar at the Consecration and distributes to the faithful, once He is reposed in the tabernacle? Does He disappear, or what?
The very livelihood of the clergy depends on the Real Presence of Our Lord. They are fed, clothed and paid to preach His Gospel, but by their actions which speak ever so much louder than the words they don't say in their sermons, many deny that He exists.
It seems Anglican churches within the Catholic Archdiocese of Wellington were open for business today. Their pastors had the faith to make it happen. Our priests did not.
As Cardinal Dew and his Council of Priests with their locked churches would have foreseen, the Society of St Pius X in Whanganui were doing a roaring trade today.They celebrated six Masses, one a sung High Mass, and said Mass in New Plymouth as well.
And as +Dew would have foreseen also, there were many refugees at St Anthony's SSPX from the St Columba's Traditional Latin Mass community at Ashhurst, which Cardinal Dew has cancelled.
Churches in the Hamilton Diocese are celebrating Holy Mass today. Why not Wellingtonians? And Palmerston Northians? It seems we're second class citizens in our Church, and St Columba's Ashhurst TLM community, having been cancelled, must be less than third class: we are outcast.
Our Lord is being persecuted. We the faithful remnant are being persecuted.
And another thing: "Fear not," said Our Lord Jesus Christ. He said it 365 times (as any good Proddy will tell you).
So why are Cardinal Dew and his Council of Priests so frightened of a flu bug? Why do they not open their churches and say as many Masses as they can, preaching the word of Christ Who says, And fear ye not them that kill the body, and are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him that can destroy both soul and body in hell (Mt 10:28).
For if I preach the gospel, it is no glory to me, for a necessity lieth upon me: for woe is unto me if I preach not the gospel (1 Cor 9:16).
"Catholics have been on a forced death march for 60 years, not forced by the Japanese but by Modernists. Let's call it the Vatican II Death March."
'Father Celatus' - a diocesan priest in the US - writing in the latest Remnant, recalls the infamous Bataan Death March of WWII, during which "the Japanese killed any Americans who stumbled on that 66-mile march, shot any who attempted to sneak water, and murdered Philippine women and children who offered food and water to the prisoners as they passed.
"Friends, Catholics have been on a forced death march for 60 years, forced not by the Japanese but the Modernists. Let's call it the Vatican II Death March. ... It's been year after year of spiritual torture and death. In both death marches, the casualties started early on and they were plentiful. Among the first casualites were the leaders from the hierarchy and religious.
"Enemies love to take out leadership early on in a war and our leaders capitulated. ...Tens of thousands ... hundreds of thousands abandoned their ministry and vocations. Others of these rebels remained, turning traitor in the heart of the Church.
" ... The immemorial traditonal Mass was gutted of dignity and replaced with a New Order novelty. Liturgical abuses multiplied ... Communion in the hand .... altar girls and lay ministers invading the sanctuary."
"Pagan rituals (were) welcomed into the Vatican and roman churches and the gravest sacrilege in Christian history: an idol on the altar of sacrifice, beside the Body and Blood of our Lord, within the Basilica of St Peter.
"Not since swine were sacrificed to Zeus by Antiochus Epiphanes had a Temple been so desecrated, but this time by a pope, and not a pagan king.
"The faithful were scandalised but not broken and so Bergoglio ... conspired once again with the Children of Darkness, this time to close down Catholic churches worldwide and deny the faithful any access to the sacraments.
"But rather than breaking the faithful, the remnant became stronger and more numerous than ever as they found ways to overcome these hurdles and make evil an occasion for good.
"Enraged by the resiliency of the remnant (Bergoglio) issued a brutal edict, declaring the immemorial Mass to be unlawful. ... The traditional remnant faithful ...remain strong in their faith and spiritually unbroken." -
The Remnant, August 15)
And just one more thing: most of the priests of the Wellington Archdiocese, and certainly Cardinal Dew, would have sworn the Oath Against Modernism, instituted on 1 September 1910 by Pope Pius X in his motu proprio Sacrorum antistitum.
Every priest had to swear this oath at ordination, until the oath was rescinded on 17 July 1967 by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith with the approval of Paul VI.
Read the excerpt below and decide for yourself whether clergy who have, since Vatican II, so violated this oath which they had solemnly sworn, are worthy of our trust and obedience.
- ... I firmly hold, then, and shall hold to my dying breath the belief of the Fathers in the charism of truth, which certainly is, was, and always will be in the succession of the episcopacy from the apostles.
- The purpose of this is, then, not that dogma may be tailored according to what seems better and more suited to the culture of each age; rather, that the absolute and immutable truth preached by the apostles from the beginning may never be believed to be different, may never be understood in any other way...
- ... I promise that I shall keep all these articles faithfully, entirely, and sincerely, and guard them inviolate, in no way deviating from them in teaching or in any way in word or in writing... Thus I promise, this I swear, so help me God...

ReplyDeleteTaupo is in the Hamilton Diocese and we were closed this morning…no Mass..During the week we can visit the Blessed Sacrament an hour in the morning and afternoon. Hopefully next Sunday will be different.

Meanwhile on EWTN they are currently showing live the large outdoor Sunday Mass in Budapest Hungary celebrated by Pope Francis. It’s part of the 52nd Eucharistic Congress. A huge crowd and few face coverings. You can watch it via the EWTN fb page.
I say:
ReplyDeleteN O, of course. Imagine Bergoglio turning his back on the huge crowd, and his face towards God.
Sharon Crooks:
The Ecclesial hierarchy are promoting physicalism if they close churches whilst rugby, restaurants and roaring consumer trading rolls on. Their proclivity towards physicalism denies us of our ontological 'right' to exercise our dual nature and have our spirituality recognised, which to any good Catholic, is more to be prized than the physical aspect of self. If all other physical activities can go ahead and no one is wiping down the checkout screens, or the sauce bottle you picked up, turned over, read the label of and put back on the shelf, the bus seat, the restaurant chair, or any other door nob, handle, item, or equipment, etc in a public space or place, then why are our churches closed to the public and Mass withheld? To do this, they must either support the philosophical position of physicalism, materialsm, secularism, etc and genuinely be discriminating against the spiritually inclined, or they are agents of Satan. Surely they have been out in public enough to realise that none of their arguments make sense in the current context unless their philosophical position is fundamentally mono-ontological.

Teresa, I expect that you’ve still got the appalling Fr (“No, I’m Monsignor”) Murray in Taupo.
ReplyDeleteThat might account for something.
Bishop Browne was very annoyed with Fr Murray for sheltering a convicted priest near a school.

Bob Gill:
ReplyDeleteDoes SSPX say Mass each week in Napier? With the government's elimination focus with Covid and with it looking likely Auckland will remain in Level 4 after today - and the possibility of the rest of the country remaining at Level 2 at bit longer, a regular Napier SSPX Mass would be closer for me than Whanganui.
I say:
Every third Sunday 5 p m, confessions beforehand, at Dunstalls' Funeral Services (aaaargh! but at least it was originally a church.

thanks for sharing this link. It's a shame more people aren't able to take the time and think critically through even the most basic things like informed consent and efficacy of medicines.
