Those of you who may have followed Lawrence England when he blogged regularly on his 'Bones' site - or have read any of his posts - may want to read his latest entry
http://thatthebonesyouhavecrushedmaythrill.blogspot.com/2019/05/so-now-that-were-all-saying-what-were.html
in which he returns to blog (after leaving off, which he explains) to make this lengthy exposition of his thoughts (and thought processes) about Jorge Bergoglio and his pontificate, and the fact that he has been accused of heresies. I share much of his thoughts - except his questionable endorsement of an Ann Barnhardt video purportedly meant to 'prove' that Benedict XVI is still the pope - but most of all, I share his obvious passion and pain in behalf of the Church and the Catholic faith, and therefore, in behalf of the truth.

However, I find his 'conclusion' that Bergoglio is not the pope but an anti-pope unhelpful to anyone, because that is wishful thinking.

For all intents and purposes, de jure and de facto, Bergoglio is the pope, and is wielding all the power and authority that come with it to the fullest extent and with the worst - and ever worsening - consequences. At this point, only an act of God can remedy that: death, or a miracle that will have Bergoglio become a true Catholic and Christian once again, so he can revoke in some way the wreckage he has already caused to the faith and to the Church.

In my daily prayers, as I pray for all those who work in the Church, beginning with the pope, my addendum for him is "Please, God, stop him in his tracks now, and keep him and his followers from doing more harm than they have already done".


A recent example of the utter shamelessness - and concomitant self-righteousness - of Bergogliacs who carry out in action what they perceive Jorge Bergoglio is telling them - or at least allowing them - to do:

Hardliner Chilean archbishop justifies
refusal to give Communion to kneeling faithul

May 15, 2019

Mns. Celestino Aós, the Apostolic Administrator of Santiago, the Chilean capital, insists that his refusal to give Communion to kneeling faithful on Holy Thursday was correct.

He told CruxNow.com (May 14): "Where you are going, do whatever you see." [????]

In July 2002, the Congregatoin for Divine Worship said that "any refusal of Holy Communion to a member of the faithful on the basis of his kneeling posture to be a grave violation of one of the most basic rights of the Christian faithful."

Aós added that "Christ is in the Holy Host, whether I’m standing or kneeling" [so why then does he discriminate kneeling faithful?].

Then he turns his abuse into a problem of his victims, "If they felt humiliated, I ask forgiveness, it was not the intent."

He stresses that he feels no repentance, "Despite this incident, I’m calm." Aós's liturgical abuse went viral after a Gloria.tv report about it.


Paging Cardinals Sarah and Ouellet! Shouldn't your congregations step in to do something abut this? And see if Bergoglio calls you down for doing so!


And what about this bleeding-heart lawless cardinal?

Curial cardinal breaks Italian law
to help those who break the law

May 15, 2019

On May 11, Cardinal Konrad Krajewski, the Papal Almoner, broke a seal placed by the Italian power company, in order to restore electrical power for about 500 illegal immigrants who have been occupying the state-owned Spin Time Labs building in Rome since 2013, with the help of Italian Communist radicals.

Krajewski tearfully called his crime tearfully a “gesture of desperation.” [He might have called the power company to ask for a grace period while he tried to work out how the building occupants could settle their debt on some workable payment plan that would also account for their continued use of power. In New York, con-Edison offers a reasonable payment plan that amortizes the debt over an extended period during which the consumer pays the amortization monthly, along with his current bill.]

The power company interrupted its service to the building on may 6 because the illegals had outstanding bills for over 300,000 Euros.

During a Sunday rally in Cuneo, Matteo Salvini, Italy’s popular interior minister, expressed his hope that Krajewski would now pay this debt and also help poor Italian families, not just immigrants.

“It would be nice if everyone were helped, not just those who occupy buildings and break the law.”

Others, including Marco Tosatti, have denounced Krajewski's lawbreaking as a legal affront by the minister of a foreign state (the Vatican) to another state (Italy) by contravening a legal act by the state-owned power company of Italy. One reader commented: "The cardinal preferred stealing from the electric company rather than paying the bill".

Increasingly, Krajewski's acts as Papal Almoner have become publicity stunts. He can't keep doing these at random for the benefit of whatever happens to be the lucky group he favors at the moment - whether it is treating them to a meal, to a day on the beach, or breaking the law to remedy a debt they owe the state. Because while they may earn him headlines, he obviously cannot do this for everyone. Rome today, with an estimated 4.5 million inhabitants in its metropolitan area, is not the Rome in the early days of the Church when church deacons sought to try and help all 'widows and orphans'(there probably were no illegal immigrants at the time) in need as the early Christian community in Jerusalem did.
