This link about this has contact info for the Papal Nuncio and the Prefect for the Faith. Please write or call them to let them know how we feel about this kind of blasphemous desecration occurring in our country. I’m going to.

Even though what these folks do is offensive, a thought has occured to me. I know that you’re not supposed to be recieving eucharist if you’ve got mortal sin on your heart but I can’t help but think that maybe the Archbishop had good intentions behind this. I mean perhaps, just perhaps, that he was thinking that the eucharist might help these guys? I mean as offensive as what these dudes do, mocking the church and all, perhaps they need the eucharist and the special grace that comes from it. may be the grace could, oh i dunno, begin to change them and lead them to the Lord? just a thought here folks.

That shouldn’t be his call. I could use the “I was trying to do the right thing” excuse any time I broke Church laws. His job is to obey the teachings of Rome, not make up cures for the ill as he goes.

If this isn’t an act of apostasy on the part of
“His Excellency,” then Judas Iscariot is a Saint in Heaven.
When apostasy aboundeth, none dare call it “apostasy.”

Makes ya have sympathy with the sedevacantists at times.
(No, I am not a sedevacantist and never will be).

I am physicaly ill over this, we should start a petition of some sorts to send to the vatican over this.
 
For those who are using this incident to sympathize with Archbishop Lefebrve, the SSPX, or sedevacantists:

I am currently reading Bl. Anne Catherine Emmerich’s “Dolorious Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ” and I just finished the portion where He sees all the sins of mankind, especially of those in the Church. She includes those yet to come (after her time-1800s), which I can see specifically being fulfilled in our time.

But after describing these outrages, she mentions another group who pains our Lord who “passed on in disgust at the wounds of His Church, as the Levite passed the poor man who had fallen among the robbers. Like unto cowardly and faithless children, who desert their mother in the middle of the night at the sight of thieves and robbers, they fled from His wounded Spouse.”

And the debate over the canonical status of the SSPX is irrelevant here, because as Bl. Emmerich says, the people in this vision were only “sometimes separated from the True Vine.”

We need good and devoted men and women on the front lines not watching and commenting contemptuously from the sidelines as the bishops and priests of the SSPX and sedevacantists groups do.
 
If you have proper self-knowledge and divine love, you will never be scandalized, but rather you will have pity and compassion. The proper response to things like this, and to the general reform of the Church, is explained by the Father to St. Catherine of Siena in the Dialogue:

This is the path to authentic reform (the Father speaking from The Dialogue):

“Therefore I give My servants hunger and desire for My honor, and the salvation of souls, so that, constrained by their tears, I may mitigate the fury of My divine justice. Take, therefore, your tears and your sweat, drawn from the fountain of My divine love, and, with them, wash the face of My Spouse. I promise you, that, by this means, her beauty will be restored to her, not by the knife nor by cruelty, but peacefully, by humble and continued prayer, by the sweat and the tears shed by the fiery desire of My servants, and thus will I fulfill your desire if you, on your part, endure much, casting the light of your patience into the darkness of perverse man…again I repeat my promise, that through the long endurance of My servants I will reform My spouse. Wherefore I invite you to endure, Myself lamenting with you over her iniquities.”
 
What is a lie? What isn’t a lie?

The Archbishops explains himself:

“The congregation was devout and the liturgy was celebrated with reverence. Toward the end of the Communion line two strangely dressed persons came to receive Communion. I did not see any mock religious garb…”

Haw Haw

They were in “full regalia”… and beautiful?? The proper word here is sick, perverse, sacrilegious, disgraceful, sinful … Beautiful is NOT one of them.

These people are sick. and disordered. This is a mental disorder, always was, always will be. And the more they sin in this way, the more disordered they become - These parades that they create; it’s not about “who they are”, it’s about what they do, and what they do is gravely sinful.

It warps the mind.

Don’t read anything in my post that wasn’t there please. I don’t condone this behavior. I commented on one particular “Sister” who was at the March for Life, in full habit and makeup. Looked nothing like these more “pedestrian” get-ups.
I’d also ask you to please tone down the rhetoric - these people are obviously in need of healing, that is obvious. I’m not sure your tone would do anything to lead these people to Christ.

She said perversely beautiful. She also said eerie. Please retain the context.
 
We pray…

Somedays like this however it seems our prayers do nothing…
 
Ah, the People’s Republic of California, where a bishop will sell his Lord down the river for the sake of political harmony, to people who promote one of the most unhealthy lifestyles there are; and where the governor just signed a law telling people they can’t smoke in their own cars with anybody under 18 present. We won’t be going to see family there any time soon.

This is just absolutely disgusting and downright outrageous! I can’t believe that the archbishop would do such a thing! Sounds like some disciplinary action is in order. :mad:

I think if Christ were here he would surely be turning over the tables at their event where they give out pornographic “toys” as prices much like he did with the money changers. I understand they raise money for Aides, that’s a wonderful thing but why must they be so disrespectful toward the Catholic faith? I don’t know what this bishop is thinking. I’m going to try and read more about this in better detail.

Btw Holly, I really like your signature 🙂 it’s the best one I’ve seen.

If they were in full regalia, it would be VERY obvious what statement they were trying to make. I’ve seen them on a few occasions, and they are really decked out in makeup and habits.
It’s kind of perversely beautiful - I saw one of the sideline of the March for Life in SF and it was pretty eerie.

Are they actually a recognized order of religious? They keep calling them ‘sisters’. Are they actually religious people in any way shape or form, or is it just a big joke?

No, they are not a recognized order or society. They just a bunch of men who like to dress in like nuns and have communal homosexual sex. Their main shtick is to mock the Church.

Our beautiful state is very large. If memory serves right we have over 13 dioceses. I happen to live in a diocese that is run by a very reverent and faithful Bishop. I am really getting tired of the remarks on this board about California. Please don’t assume the entire state is this way. It is rather unfair.
