+Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary+
On this feast day of Mary, our dear mother and mother of our Divine Savior, I want to update a blog I wrote a few years back with some amazing information. A week ago, we celebrated the feast of the Assumption. Shortly before that feast I found something I feel is pretty incredible online that I would like to pass on to you here. This new information will make what is reprinted below so much more relevant and meaningful.
The following was sent to me by my daughter, Aimee, mother of five and a fervent pro-life activist. Like me, she loved being pregnant and always felt there was a special, mysterious symbiosis between mother and child that she could never quite explain. Finally, she found research that provided the perfect explanation for it, as expressed below.
“When pregnant, the cells of the baby migrate into the mother’s bloodstream and then circle back into the baby, it’s called ‘fetal-maternal microchimerism.’
“For 41 weeks, the cells circulate and merge backwards and forwards, and after the baby is born, many of these cells stay in the mother’s body, leaving a permanent imprint in the mother’s tissues, bones, brain, and skin, and often stay there for decades.
“Every single child a mother has afterwards will leave a similar imprint on her body, too. Even if a pregnancy doesn’t go to full term or if you have an abortion, these cells still migrate into your bloodstream.
“Research has shown that if a mother’s heart is injured, fetal cells will rush to the site of the injury and change into different types of cells that specialize in mending the heart. The baby helps repair the mother, while the mother builds the baby.
“How cool is that? This is often why certain illnesses vanish while pregnant.
“It’s incredible how mothers’ bodies protect the baby at all costs, and the baby protects and rebuilds the mother back – so that the baby can develop safely and survive.
“Think about crazy cravings for a moment. What was the mother deficient in that the baby made them crave?
“Studies have also shown cells from a fetus in a mother’s brain 18 years after she gave birth. How amazing is that?”
“If you’re a mom you know how you can intuitively feel your child even when they are not there… Well, now there is scientific proof that moms carry them for years and years even after they have given birth to them.”
Now for the new information. In this brief YouTube video, we learn not only that the Assumption is a Catholic dogma proclaimed ex cathedra by Pope Pius XII, but that it is something verified by modern-day science that leads to a conclusion even Protestants should find difficult to deny, (although of course they will.) If we think about what is said above for a moment on microchimerism, and combine that with what we know About the Blessed Mother, it should occur to us; but our thinking processes are such that the full import of it doesn’t always make it through our thick heads.
Jesus had no earthly father; he was, of course, the sole product of his Blessed Mother. What He had from his Father in heaven was his divinity, and what He took from His Mother was His humanity. So everything that Jesus had of His humanity came solely from the Blessed Virgin Mary. And if we realize that microchimerism, as described above, is present in both our Lord’s body and was present in both our Lord’s body and His Mother’s body, we then see that even though He ascended into heaven, He left literally part of Himself on earth with His mother.
So if we then proceed to the next conclusion about that statement, we can better understand and appreciate why the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary had to become a dogma. When Mary was left here as a white martyr to complete her Son’s earthly mission and become the Mother of the Church, she contained in her body the cells, the very cells, of the human Christ. In this manner Christ truly was still, in the person of His mother, with the Apostles and the early Church until the Blessed Mother’s death. And because that was the case, once she passed, those cells had to be reunited with Christ.
Although theologians are not sure if she died or merely went to sleep, let’s assume that she did die, and when she died, just like her Son, three days after her passing she had to be assumed into heaven. Why? Because this was the completion of Christ’s Resurrection. This was the fulfillment of His Ascension. All of Him had to go to heaven. All of Him had to rise from the dead and His cells still remained in the Blessed Virgin Mary. That is why we call her the new Ark of the Covenant. That is why she is loved and honored everywhere by Catholics.
And given this scientific discovery, which happened in 1979 at Stanford University in California, I cannot think of a better case that could be made for the love and respect owed to such a wonderful woman who was the mother of the God-man, the Redeemer who freed us from bondage on this earth. This is why, contrary to the false teaching of the heresiarch Leo 14, Pope Pius XII called her Co-Redemptrix as well as Mediatrix.
I wanted to share that with you and give honor and praise and love to that woman who bore those cells for so many years after her Son rose from the dead and ascended into heaven. May all of you enjoy protection under Our Lady’s mantle this day and always.

+St. Philomena+
Sometimes it is wise to provide a recap of what happened in the past for the benefit of those just now happening upon the truth and as a refresher for those who have long known it. As stated in last week’s blog, the concerns for the Latin Mass being banned or outlawed are misplaced because it ceased to exist when John 23 was invalidly elected pope. Of course, no one believes or accepts these facts and therefore they continue to believe that the Latin Mass still exists as offered by traditionalists. Anyone that has read this site faithfully will know that’s not the case. And so, please forgive me if some things are repeated here that have been said long ago, but if a person wishes to be diligent in trying to educate, then things sometimes have to be repeated and people have to be reminded. So please bear with me.
Antichrist and the Mass
What are the signs that Antichrist has appeared among us? One of the first to look for, Pope Paul IV told us in his infallible Bull, Cum ex Apostolatus Officio, is a man elected pope who is secretly a heretic. This he defines as “the abomination of desolation standing in the Holy Place,” which we know is the Antichrist spoken of in Daniel. Then there will be a great revolt, as St. Paul predicted. This revolt began in the very days of Pope Paul IV, during the Protestant Revolt. It was completed with what happened after Vatican 2 and the introduction of the new mass by Paul 6, falsifying Christ’s very words in the Consecration of the wine. But in reality, it began when Roncalli approved missalettes for the faithful (the dialogue mass in English), distributed in 1959 all over the world, already containing in the consecration of the wine the falsification of Christ’s words, “for all men.”
It was finalized by inserting St. Joseph into the Canon of the Mass, creating his own “missal” 1962. Nothing had been added to this Canon for nearly1,500 years! Pope Pius IX had ruled 100 years previously that St. Joseph would not be added to the Canon. Pope St. Pius V had made the Gospel of St. John obligatory at the end of the Mass, (before it was optional). He dropped the last Gospel, the St. Michael’s prayer and the prayers for the conversion of Russia, and inserted St. Joseph into the Canon. So even before the new mass became official, the Latin Mass was on its way out. The false Vatican 2 council, concluding in 1965, paved the way for every possible innovation and failed to address those things most pressing in the Church. And In 1968, the rites for episcopal consecration and ordination were altered to resemble the Anglican rites condemned as invalid by Pope Leo XIII, invalidating the Sacrament of Orders.
The Novus Oro Missae fulfilled Daniel’s prophecy that “the Sacrifice and the Victim shall fail,” (Dan. 9:27). In other words, the Holy Sacrifice is worthless in appeasing God’s wrath and satisfying for our sins because the priests falsely ordained cannot validly consecrate the Host. The Novus Ordo Missae was only a dressed up version of the heretic bishop Cranmer’s Anglican “mass.” When the Novus Ordo Missae was formally introduced, it is estimated that the Church lost half her priests and religious and about 40 percent of the faithful, or more. John 23 and Paul 6 openly endorsed Freemasonry and atheistic Communism, which despite the plea of the Russian bishops, was not condemned at the Vatican Council. The altars were turned to face the people, as also happened when the Jewish antichrist Antiochus reigned. All manner of unholy things were admitted to the churches, including guitar masses, masses using hot dog buns for bread and coke for wine, masses including altar girls and scantily clad dancers – all the evils of paganism were introduced. In one church during a youth conference in Italy, phallus worship was even tolerated. The Roman officials saw they had gone too far and reigned themselves in under JP 2, but the history of the Church in the degenerate1960s and 70s remains as testimony to its Satanic wickedness.
The Fathers and Doctors on Antichrist
Henry Cardinal Manning, who as an archbishop helped convoke and bring to completion the Vatican Council — one of the greatest champions of the papacy — undoubtedly was aware of St. Francis de Sales’ and St. Alphonsus’ teaching that the Sacrifice would cease in the latter days. Robert Bergin, who issued the first edition of his book These Apocalyptic Times in 1970 (Fatima International), tells us in Chapter Five, entitled “Persecution”: “Some interpret the reference in 2Thessalonians — Antichrist showing himself in the temple of God as though he were God — to mean Antichrist will seize St. Peter’s and usurp the papal see.” He then quotes Cardinal Manning’s The Present Crisis of the Holy See: “The Holy Fathers who have written upon the subject of Antichrist and the prophecies of Daniel — all of them unanimously — say that in the latter end of the world, during the reign of Antichrist, the Holy Sacrifice of the altar will cease.” St. Francis writes: “The revolt and separation must come…the Sacrifice shall cease and…the Son of Man shall hardly find faith on earth…All these passages are understood of the affliction which Antichrist shall cause in the Church…But the Church… shall not fail, and shall be fed and preserved amidst the deserts and solitudes to which She shall retire, as the Scripture says, (Apoc. Ch. 12),” (The Catholic Controversy).
In his The Holy Eucharist, St. Alphonsus stated that: “It is true [the Mass] will cease on earth at the time of Antichrist: the Sacrifice of the Mass is to be suspended …according to the prophecy of Daniel, (Dan. 12:11).” St. Alphonsus goes on to explain, however, that in reality the Sacrifice and priesthood never will cease since “the Son of God, Eternal Priest, will always continue to offer Himself to God, the Father, in Heaven as an Eternal Sacrifice.”
And it is only at this altar, in the privacy of their homes, that those who strive to keep the faith without recourse to invalid pseudo-clergy choose to honor Him. But those wishing to follow their own sinful wills call Manning a heretic, the early Fathers liars and the Vatican Council’s infallible Rule of Faith (DZ 1788) concerning the unanimous agreement of the Fathers false; they also dismiss the teachings of these two great doctors of the Church. And so they reveal their evil intentions for what they are, proving they could not be true Catholics. Again, in Manning’s The Present Crisis of the Holy See Tested by Prophecy we find: “When…was the Church of God ever in a weaker condition? And from whence…is deliverance to come? Is there on earth any power to intervene? Not one; and it is foretold it should be so. Neither need we desire it; for the will of God seems to be otherwise…The apostasy of the city of Rome from the vicar of Christ and its destruction by Antichrist may be thoughts so new to many Catholics, that I think it well to recite the text of theologians of greatest repute. First Malvenda, who writes expressly on the subject, states as the opinion of Ribera, Gaspar Melus, Biegas, Suarez, Bellarmine and Bosius that Rome shall apostatise from the faith, drive away the Vicar of Christ and return to its ancient paganism.
Malvenda’s words are: ‘But Rome itself in the last times of the world will return to its ancient idolatry, power and imperial greatness. It will cast out its Pontiff, altogether apostatise from the Christian faith, terribly persecute the Church, shed the blood of martyrs more cruelly than ever and will recover its former state of abundant wealth, or even greater than it had under its first rulers,” (Henry Edward Cardinal Manning, The Present Crisis of the Holy See, 1861. London: Burns and Lambert, pgs. 89-90). “Then the Church shall be scattered, driven into the wilderness, and shall be for a time, as it was in the beginning, invisible, hidden in catacombs, in dens, in mountains, in lurking places; for a time it shall be swept, as it were from the face of the earth. Such is the universal testimony of the Fathers of the early Church,” (Ibid., p. 88).
Ven. Bartholomew. Holzhauser also taught what Manning refers to here. “God will permit a great evil against His Church: Heretics and tyrants will come suddenly and unexpectedly; they will break into the Church while bishops, prelates, and priests are asleep. They will enter Italy and lay Rome waste; they will burn down the churches and destroy everything.”(Yves Dupont, Catholic Prophecy, Tan Books and Publishers, 1973).
The Church will disappear
The following is an example of what one early Father wrote concerning what would happen to the Church in the end times:
Victorinus — (Source: Translated by Robert Ernest Wallis. From Ante-Nicene Fathers, Vol. 7. Edited by Alexander Roberts, James Donaldson, and A. Cleveland Coxe. (Buffalo, NY: Christian Literature Publishing Co.,1886) https://www.newadvent.org/fathers/0712.htm
“Ch. 6:14. “And the heaven withdrew as a scroll that is rolled up.” For the heaven to be rolled away, that is, that the Church shall be taken away.
“Ch. 15:1 “And I saw another great and wonderful sign, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is completed the indignation of God.” For the wrath of God always strikes the obstinate people with seven plagues, that is, perfectly, as it is said in Leviticus; and these shall be in the last time, when the Church shall have gone out of the midst.
Could Pope Paul IV have wrongly defined the abomination of desolation as a false pope and/or bishop ruling as a true pope or bishop? To deny this is to deny his infallibility. To deny the Council of Trent and the Vatican Council could have erred in teaching that the Holy Mass would cease during Antichrist’s reign is likewise a denial of infallibility. Read the biographies of Roncalli and Montini and see their heresies pre-election with your own eyes; read Vacantis Apostolicae Sedis and know for yourselves that these men could never have been validly elected.
Holy Scripture tells us that Antichrist will come according to the workings of Satan, in all “power, signs and lying wonders,” (2 Thess. 2; Mark 13:22). He will perform “great signs” (Apoc. 13:13). He will crush the saints of the Most High, (Dan. Ch. 7:25; 8:24; Apoc. 13:7). Daniel tells us he will do more than can be believed. So where is the Church in these times? In the Gospel, Christ tells us: “The kingdom of God is within you.” Christ honored His promise that Peter’s faith would never fail, for no pope ever taught heresy as pope, from Peter to Pope Pius XII. When we see false teachers standing in the Holy Place, we know that Antichrist has come and we must flee. When the Holy Sacrifice was abrogated by this man, we recognized who he was and why he had come. He was opposed to all that Christ was and is; the mirror reverse of His image. Many of the prophecies concerning him predicted he would reign during the 20th century. Just as Christ filled all the Scriptural prophecies by His coming, so Antichrist fulfilled all the predictions of his own advent.
Conclusion
Christ is honoring His promise to be with us all days, “even to the consummation,” because he is now the sole Head of His Mystical Body. He has always provided all the graces flowing from the Sacraments and He will not leave us orphans now. He promised us that even where two or three are gathered in His name, there He will be in the midst of them, and He is ever true to all of His promises. “Let your loins be girt, and lamps burning in your hands. And you yourselves like to men who wait for their lord, when he shall return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open to him immediately. Blessed are those servants, whom the Lord when he cometh, shall find watching. Amen I say to you, that he will gird himself, and make them sit down to meat, and passing will minister unto them. And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants” (Luke 12: 35-38).

+St. Peter’s Chains+
Prayer Society Intention for August, Month of the Most Pure Heart of Mary
“Most Holy Trinity, we adore Thee and through Mary we entreat Thee: make all men one in the faith and give them courage to profess it faithfully” (Raccolta)
Introduction
It never fails to amaze me how these broadcasters, podcasters, YouTubers and blogsters can manage to cover an entire scope of conspiracies and misinformation, disinformation — just outright lies, really — in the media about secular events, but yet fail to target the real issue underlying all this, and that is the total destruction of the Catholic Church. And if they do cover it, they don’t take whatever it is they’re presenting to its logical conclusions, and that’s been the main problem for decades. The most recent example of this is a video that I was made aware of on the internet regarding the loyalty oath that some of these traditional groups are afraid Leo 14 will make their clergy swear to, and this could possibly include even the laity. While this proposal must be alarming to those who still think they have what’s left of the Church in the Latin Mass and their traditional communities, it’s not surprising or alarming, of course, to those of us who have kept the faith at home all these years.
I didn’t come on the pray-at-home scene until the 1980s, but I know there were other Catholics who were stepping back from even emerging LibTrad alternatives as early as the 1960s. And Msgr. Fenton mentions in his diaries that he knew of faithful having grave issues with what was going on liturgically and were pulling back in the late 1950s. In any event, let’s look at what this video basically has to say about this loyalty oath and see if it can be connected to any of the things we’ve covered previously.
TLM status in the Novus Ordo
An online summary of the Latin mass situation HERE explains that, “In March, Pope Leo XIV called for “concrete solutions” to heal divisions over the Mass in a message to the French bishops. The Holy Father called for renewed unity in the Church’s liturgical life, urging French bishops to seek “concrete solutions” to include Catholics attached to the Traditional Latin Mass while preserving communion.” Now here we must remind readers that this is NOT the ancient Latin Mass declared perpetual by Pope St. Pius V in Quo Primum. Rather it is the revised mass in Latin taken from the John 23 Missal with changes in the Canon, among other things. So it is a wholly Novus Ordo creation, and has nothing to do with Tradition. The Youtuber commenting on the loyalty oath connects this address to the Novus Ordo French bishops with magazine articles speculating that the excommunication of Pope St. Pius X, “priests,” does not bode well for what will be coming down the line later in regards to Leo’s attitude toward traditionalists in general. He says is there is more concern about a rejection of Vatican 2 as a whole, not necessarily about the liturgy itself.
He notes that this isn’t in any way referring to the liturgies of the Orthodox communities, although it may affect them in the future. He asserts the obvious — that Vatican 2 was disastrous for the Church and the Church’s political standing in the world. The Church was not meant to be secular and political, and that’s what Vatican 2 represents: secularization and inculturation, as he says. Well, of course, he claims that bringing the traditional Latin Mass back is the answer, but the Novus Ordo says no, bringing the Mass back is not good, it’s a threat to the whole Vatican 2 project basically because of the attitudes of those it drags in behind it. In other words, loyalty to what the Church was versus what she is today is just not acceptable. This supposedly creates division and disunity and makes people question what the Vatican’s doing. The Youtuber calls it a “demon church.”
Leo said in his first address he wants “a united Church, leaven for the reconciled world” and traditionalists stand in the way of him realizing that goal. It’ will be interesting to see if all [calling themselves] Catholics are willing to sign a document, he says, professing loyalty to Vatican 2. Leo reportedly wants them to accept diocesan oversight. Of course, none of us will and I don’t know how they’re going to punish us. We’ve already separated ourselves from everything, so they may be able to affect us in some way, but exactly how, I have no idea. The concern, I guess, is that LibTrads won’t celebrate the Novus Ordo. And it seems like the clergy of the Fraternal Society of St. Peter (FSSP) may be excommunicated like the St. Pius X Society. According to some other internet personalities that are writing on the topic, trads will have to make concessions if they want “accommodations” with the church. This implies that sedevacantist sects would be required to pledge an oath of loyalty not just to Vatican 2, but also to a false pope.
The only accommodations that will be affected are the ones applying to those attending the John 23 masses said within the Novus Ordo by associations such as the FSSP. The thinking is that eventually all traditionalists will be forced to celebrate the new sacramental rites and/or swear loyalty to Leo and Vatican 2 or be “excommunicated.” Even Benedict 16 said that the Novus Ordo Missae was “holy “and they can’t ignore it. Certainly it is most unholy —sacrilege and heresy — and Patrick Henry Omlor did a great job of letting people know about that way back in the ’70s, so I don’t think we have any doubts there. But the powers that be among the Novus Ordo commentators, I guess, are saying that papal clarification and requirement for this loyalty oath is essentially inevitable. And plans appear to be in the works to synodalize the Eastern rites.
An Israel connection?
Leo 14 doesn’t present as a particularly strong character to me. He seems to be quite mild in the way he does things; very liberal too. But I do notice that one of the first things he did was endorse Nostra Aetete to pledge support and help to the Jews. That alone should tell everybody where he is headed. Now, the YouTuber doesn’t mention this, but it wouldn’t surprise me one bit if Leo XIV, in the process of his loyalty oath, went on to say, “No, you can’t come out against Israel; you have to be supportive of Israel.” He may say it in somewhat mild terms, but it’s only logical since this has been Novus Ordo practice since Paul 6 usurped the See; John 23 was also doing it but was just doing it quietly. This could throw the lot of Novus Ordo members in doctrinally and politically with the Christian Zionists, many of whom are now considering leaving the U.S. to live in the devastated West Bank, to be closer to Israel. And it might add a whole new dimension to the requirement of a loyalty oath.
The creator of this video mentions the sedevacantist sects and implies, but does not state, that they would be required to swear loyalty to Leo 14 in addition to accepting Vatican 2. It is hard to see what consequences in way of punishment could be threatened if they refused, unless it be a loss of their supporting members and potential “candidates for the priesthood.” And this may be the overall plan, for all Latin Mass communities. It also is almost certainly geared to regaining any of those younger Catholics now said to be flocking to Latin Masses. Atendance at the Latin Mass could possibly be allowed but perhaps at the cost of pledging allegiance to Vatican 2 and Leo 14.
TLM suspicions confirmed
In a discussion of the future of the Latin Mass NO “Cardinal” Cordileone of San Francisco told media personality Raymond Arroyo in the above mentioned EWTN article that “with some precautions, we can allow a greater access to the Mass and maintain unity within the Church.” Whether said precautions would include a loyalty oath to Vatican 2 is not discussed, but when Arroyo contacted the Vatican for comment he was told by Cardinal Arthur Roche, in response to Cordileone‘s comments: “I donʼt know how well he knows the mind of the Holy Father. But I think one thing thatʼs clear to everyone is the Holy Father wants to bring everyone together. Heʼs all about unity.” In a separate interview with The Tablet, Roche affirmed that “Pope Leo has no intention of changing Pope Francis’ restrictions on the traditional liturgy.” In 2021 and 2023, Francis limited the number of churches where the mass could be said and required those saying it to ask for permission of the bishop. Later he required those bishops to first obtain permission form the Vatican to say it. The danger today is indietrismo, the reaction against the modern. It is a nostalgic disease,” he said. “This is why I decided that now the permission to celebrate according to the Roman Missal of 1962 [the Latin Mass] is mandatory for all newly consecrated priests.”
Well the disease is the Modernism condemned by REAL popes that destroyed the Church by reducing the Sacrifice of the Mass to exterior devotion and mere symbols — Cranmer’s mass celebrated by Protestants. LibTrads are so brainwashed that they don’t even realize they lost the Mass when “for all men” was inserted into the English rendition of the Canon of Pope St. Pius V’s Mass and distributed in missalettes in 1959 at the behest of John 23. This even preceded the issuance of the John 23 Missal. They are not losing anything ancient and always permitted; they are losing only the remnants of any true Tradition within their own non-Catholic sect. The Novus Ordo delusions continue, and where they are headed is not where anyone interested in saving their soul wants to go.
The Youtuber concludes by noting the hypocrisy of the SSPX excommunications because NO sect members are allowed to attend Protestant services, but not those of the St. Pius X Society. He points out that many of the old cardinals will be retired by Leo in December of this year and January of 2027, and a host of new cardinals selected by Leo will be appointed. He predicts that this will then result in traditionalists being forced out of the Novus Ordo, once any current holdout cardinals are retired. He then goes on to say these cardinals will be sworn to obey Vatican 2: “And that will be the end of the TLM as we know it.” He foresees some kind of hybrid mass, incorporating the Latin mass of John 23 with the NOM of Paul 6, to hopefully pander to the wishes of traditionalists. His final comment is, “The Novus Ordo is the ape of the [true] Church,” but no one in LibTrad land knows what that Church teaches or believes.
Implications of these developments
In a scholarly work delivered as a history dissertation by Adriano E. Ciani in 2011 (https://ir.lib.uwo.ca/etd/348/), Ciani summarizes the gist of the Vatican 2 decree Nostra Aetate:
“The Second Vatican Council was also significant, moreover, for the promulgation of Nostra Aetate, a declaration on the relationship of the Roman Catholic Church with non-Christian religions. Notable was the fourth section, which dealt specifically with Judaism. It repudiated the centuries-old charge of deicide against the Jews, and stressed the religious and spiritual bonds shared by the faiths, reaffirming the eternal covenant between God and the people of Israel. It further dismissed the Catholic objective of trying to convert the Jews, a symbolic turning point if juxtaposed with Pope Pius X’s 1904 warning to Theodor Herzl that should the Jews return to Palestine, there would be “Catholic priests waiting there to baptize them all.” For the first time in history, Nostra Aetate called for Catholics and Jews to engage in friendly dialogue and theological discussion to better understand each other’s faiths.”
The Novus Ordo church knows full well that there are true antisemites with neo-Nazi sympathies among the LibTrads and they very much wish to purge this from the ranks for political reasons. Requiring a loyalty oath to Vatican 2 would solve this problem. If Leo 14 shuts down the John 23 Latin mass they can call him the Antichrist, but he is really only excluding a rite from his own church, which is not Catholic. Only Paul 6 can be said to have abrogated the Latin rite Mass of Pope St. Pius V. We know Leo 14 is not out to unify the church, but only prepare it for the one world church to come. The loyalty oath, if made mandatory, is much like the call of the Roman emperors to worship their pagan cults and abandon Christianity. Some may fall for it because they think they may be able to “save” their mass. But they never had the REAL Latin Mass in the first place.
