He does not belong to the Church, and neither does the rest of his heretical sect. Perhaps the next logical step on the path of the blasphemous claims of the papacy—claims which have caused Roman Catholicism to diverge from the Church at an ever increasing rate over the last thousand years—would be for papists to start “canonizing” their popes before they are dead?Lector Orientalishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04636623875524253174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192580971664762668.post-83167529016027917442011-05-06T19:37:35.963+01:002011-05-06T19:37:35.963+01:00The "catholicus" in the name of Pope Ben...The "catholicus" in the name of Pope Benedict XVI, who has the right and duty to proclaim someone "blessed" has spoken.<br />Whether you like what Bl.

After posting my last comment at Fr. Hunwicke's weblog, I have not gone back to read whether the good Father or anyone else has commented upon my comment, lest I find out that I have been attacked ad hominem, which, on that particular issue, I do not wish to be. I made myself vulnerable in order to break the silence and not allow the presupposition, that a certain category of people must still be the legitimate universal scapegoat, to go mindlessly unquestioned and unopposed. But on Tuesday I shall look to see what you have written... <br />In spe, AlbertusAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192580971664762668.post-22601115508915449922011-05-01T20:19:05.364+01:002011-05-01T20:19:05.364+01:00Fr.

(I refuse to c...Happy Dominica in Albis depositis! <br />(I refuse to call the ancient Easter octave day by the new name given it by John Paul II, who seemed to try to recreate all of catholicism in his own image and to his own personal taste.) <br />For the Octave of Easter celebrates the Resurrection as proof of Christ's Divinity as witnessed to by St. Thomas the Apostle (''My Lord and my God''). Divine Mercy is best celebrated on the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. <br />Regarding the beatification, a traditionally-minded Dutch catholic weblogger called Observatrix had this to say: vandaag [het Vatikaan] een misplaatste overijlde zaligverklaring pleegt van een persoon die tegelijk kan worden aangewezen als patroon van de daders van seksueel misbruik die hij ook bij leven stelselmatig heeft beschermd. Which means: ''Today the Vatican commits a misplaced and overly hasty beatification of a person who at the same time can be designated patron saint of perpetrators of sexual abuse, whom he whilst alive systematically protected''. To which i add: The list of reasons - from both liberal as well as traditionalist sides - against the beatification of JPII is long, real and serious, but methinks that his beatification was decided upon already before the late Pontiff had died. Probably in order to place his long, and long-suffered reign and its endless errors and bad policies above any and all criticism. Lastly, Patricius, i must disagree with your announced plan to chant an anathema against users of the 1962 missal in next year's holy satruday's liturgy. Such a manipulation of the liturgy , esp. by a private person, is wrong. And unfair to those who use the 1970 missal, who are much more deserving of an anathema!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192580971664762668.post-65903798886191042042011-04-30T15:52:29.100+01:002011-04-30T15:52:29.100+01:00If I remember correctly, the FSSPX have also expre...If I remember correctly, the FSSPX have also expressed their objection to this beautification. They would however support a canonisation of Pius XII.<br /><br />I don't think they'll ever canonise him, the progressive groups in the Church are opposed to it. John XXIII is a likelier pope to be canonised in the future.<br /><br />Now that John Paul's Assisi gets a sequel, how long do we have to wait for 'ecumenical' saints? Saint Martin Luther King, anyone?Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06820001463809982324noreply@blogger.com
