Abp. Viganò: Catholics have ‘sacred and urgent duty’ to resist Cdl. Cupich’s Latin Mass crackdown

 Amici,


Archbishop Viganò has issued a clarion call, a battle cry, against Bergoglio and Cupich and all their ilk.

Abp. Viganò pulls out all the stops and takes no prisoners in his essay. An excerpt (highlights mine, but the entire letter should be highlighted): 

This umpteenth show of strength by Cupich, who is cynical and ruthless towards the faithful even before the Canons of the Institute of Christ the King, can constitute a healthy moment of reflection on the many omissions and equivocations that need to be clarified, especially in the matter of acceptance of the Conciliar mens and the Bergoglian “magisterium.” I trust that the Canons of Christ the King and all of the Ecclesia Dei institutes will be able to see in these days of trial a precious opportunity for purification, courageously witnessing to the necessary coherence between the profession of Faith and its cultic expression in the Mass, and the consequent irreconcilability between these and the doctrinal and liturgical deviations of Vatican II. Because it is not possible to celebrate the Mass of Saint Pius V and at the same time to accept the errors of its enemies.

Cupich knows this very well, and this is why he wants to prevent the celebration of that Mass. He knows how much that Mass is a very powerful exorcism against the servants of the devil, both those who wear miters and those who do not. He knows how immediately that Mass is understandable to anyone for its supernatural sense of the sacred and divine – the
mysterium tremendum of Moses before the burning bush – and how that Mass opens the eyes of the faithful, warms their hearts, and enlightens their minds. After decades of unspeakable torments, the faithful are finally able to approach the Majesty of God, to be converted, to change their lives, to educate their children in holiness, and to spread the Faith by their example. What could be more desirable for a Bishop who is truly a Shepherd of the Sheep entrusted to him by the Lord? And what could be more detestable for those who want to see the Sheep be torn to pieces by wolves or fall into the abyss?

The lay faithful, priests, and Bishops have the sacred and urgent duty to rise up against the decisions of these completely discredited characters and to demand, without yielding an inch, that the venerable Tridentine Liturgy remain an inviolable bulwark of doctrine, morality, and spirituality. We must obey God rather than men (Acts 5:29), especially when these men have demonstrated by their reprehensible conduct, that they do not love either God or their brothers in the Faith.


AnP again:

Viganò is his usual brilliant self here, even more than usual. And I suspect many laity and clergy watching from the sidelines get the strong sense that Bergoglio has over-reached himself. Joe Biden is massively over-reaching his miserable self, as well. Both these "installed" puppet leaders totter (literally, in both cases) on the brink of toppling into the Abyss that Viganò mentions in his letter. The deadline of the U.S. November elections loom, as does China's opportunity to invade Taiwan, as does Russia's chance to slap down NATO and most of all, I'm seeing from multiple sources that the death and injury count from the Covid "vaccines" is reaching unbelievable heights, and there's no way to keep the lid on that news much longer, at least, not short of closing down the entire Internet.

And please note Viganò's core point: the Trad Mass is incompatible with pretty much the whole of Vatican II. That's true in part due to what the Vat2 documents actually say, especially Dignitatis Humanae, Declaration On Religious Freedom; Nostra Aetate Declaration on On the Relation of the Church to Non-Christian Religions; and Unitatis Redintegratio, the Decree On Ecumenism. But it is mainly true from the actual accumulated effects of the Second Vatican Council. We have seen, over half a century, that whatever the printed, voted-on documents actually say, the Modernists in the Church just decree that they actually mean whatever the Modernists want to push at a given moment. The Vatican II documents might as well be printed on Kleenex. So, ergo, the whole of Vatican II needs to be sunk. (Preferably in the Marianas Trench.)

And the ever-present irony is, the more Bergoglio & Co. push for "Vatican II acceptance", the more they ensure it's rejection, precisely because of "...the consequent irreconcilability between these (Traditional Catholic teachings and practice) and the doctrinal and liturgical deviations of Vatican II."

The only real question is whether we'll survive the Great Chastisement we're entering into. If we can, great. If not, then...maybe old Sweeny Astray will let me join him at "his tree in charming Glen Bolcain, for that was his fortress and his haven, it was his house there in the glen," as Flann O'Brien once put it long ago.

Belgian Cardinal says the Church must conform to modern society and not try to "conquer lost ground"

Amici,
I recommend a great article on Vatican II's teaching on human dignity and freedom at 1P5. It's an excellent critique of the awful Vat2 pastiche Dignitatis Humanae

Here is an example of what Vatican II and Dignitatis Humanae have wrought, and if one is to know a tree by its fruit, this is a wormy fruit Vat2 produced, indeed.

An excerpt (this is a cardinal, mind ye):

I believe that being a Catholic in Europe today means being part of
this scenario. It is the desire to live together while respecting
others. The Church is not here to “reconquer lost ground”. This is not its mission. To be Catholic is to be faithful to one’s convictions in an environment that has changed to a pluralistic society. This implies respect for human being and his or her beliefs.

We must always be respectful of each other, to accept the person as
he or she is, without wanting to impose ourselves on an individual
person or on society. However, we have a mission inside this society. We have convictions and values that we want to defend. It must also be noted that there is interfaith solidarity and this is the mission of the Catholic Church. We stand in solidarity with all those who strive for a more just and more fraternal society.

If we fight for the respect of freedom of religion, it is because we
agree with secularised society, but within this society, we have values to defend. The Catholic Church does not oppose a secularised society.
Citizens have the right to believe or not to believe and I stand for
that.


An Préachán again: as an old, cantankerous Irishman from the West might say, "Don't that drive the spike through the back of the donkey that carried Christ into Jerusalem, now!"
Don't it now, mhuise.

They used to put signs in windows in America: "NINA", No Irish Need Apply". So it is here, with Christ Himself. No place for Our Lord as the purpose and point of life, and transforming the world to Him, baptizing it in His Name. We Catholic Christians just have "values that are important to us" and "interfaith solidarity" to defend. Indeed, or in other words, "We surrender, utterly.

And doesn't line sound so Freemasonry? "We stand in solidarity with all those who strive for a more just and more fraternal society." It just reminds me of "Liberté, égalité, fraternité", itself a Masonic slogan.
