Say Hello to the Latin Mass Pt 1

The Servant of God Fulton Sheen once wrote that there are not millions of people who hate the Catholic Church; there are however millions who hate what they think is the Catholic Church, which is another matter altogether.
While that does explain why atheists are such idiots, it also begs the question of whether Catholics themselves know their own faith. If recent polls are any indication, the answer is no. Besides the numbers I cited in a previous post concerning Benedict XVI, consider these numbers:
-52% of Catholics in America voted for Obama, a man that is for all the issues the USCCB told the faithful not to support.
- According toThe American Values Survey, conducted by the Public Religion Research Institute, 60% of Catholics would rather hear about social justice rather than pro-life issues, even though social justice doesn't mean anything if you're not alive
-17% of Catholics attend Mass at least once a week.
-Less than 15% believe in transubstantiation (less than 10% even know what that word means).
-While 77.7 million Americans claim to be Catholic, 34% admit they don't practice their faith.
-Even though the Church has taught artificial contraception is morally wrong, only 8% of Catholics agree with that, according to Gallup.
-Also according to Gallup, 40% thought abortion was okay, 71% thought divorce was okay, 61% thought having a child outside of marriage was okay, and 54% thought homosexual relations was okay...again, all actions condemned by the Church.
Side note: Gallup found the numbers didn't change if you separated the Mass attending Catholics from the non-attendants.

I've looked into this long and hard, and I've concluded the only way to turn this tide of filth around is to bring the Latin Mass back to the forefront of Catholic life. I'll get into more detail as to how I reached this conclusion in future posts, but for those 40 and younger (or those who have heard of it, but are not sure what it entails), please take the time to watch this video. I know it's long but it will give you a good idea of the rubrics:

A Christian Blindside

For the longest time on this blog, I said in my bio that I supported the prophecy of St Malachy. In my ignorance, I implied that it was valid Catholic prophecy. What brought about my change of heart? None other than Michael Voris:





I would also like to add that once you look at the prophecies a little closer, you will find a good number of them just don't add up. The pope prophecy supporters would have you believe that  Benedict XVI is the pope referred to when it talks about "glory of the olive", the last one before the supposed final pope Peter the Roman. They state this must be talking about Benedict XVI because the emblem of the Benedictine Order is an olive branch. There are two things wrong with this:
1. Benedict XVI himself was never a member of the Benedictine order.
2. The Benedictine Order doesn't have an emblem. The closest thing they have is the St Benedict medal and there are no olives anywhere on the medal.

At one point in the video, Voris brings up all the so-called Christian groups that have predicted the end of the world is coming but they have all been wrong without exception.

So one may ask "what does this have to do with combating atheism?" The answer is plenty.
What reason would atheists have to become Christians if they hear Christians talking about the world coming to an end and then being wrong about it? Wouldn't they have every right to question whether these Christians have their heads on straight?

Quick disclaimer: I made this exact same complaint against Christians before I accepted Christ as my Savior and His Holy Church as My Mother, so I can say beyond hyperbole atheists read the Bible even less than they say Christians do in this regard. In fact, I'll go even further and say if atheists did read the following verses, they would see how more reasonable the Bible created by the Catholic Church is:
Matt. 24:36 - many sects try to predict the coming of Christ. But Jesus says, "no one but the Father knows the day and the hour." The sects that try to predict Christ's coming ignore these words.
Acts 1:7 - Jesus says it is not for us to know the times or seasons which the Father has fixed by His
own authority.
Rev. 22:20 - Jesus says He is coming soon, but He does not tell us when He is coming. Because Jesus says we do not know the day or the hour and will be surprised at His coming, it is silly, and disobedient, for people and
groups to predict His coming.

So in the end, atheists are idiots and I am ashamed to have ever supported the prophecy. The Masked Angel withdraws his support for it.

The Pope Resigns; The Media Still Gets it Wrong

    Right on, Voris, and it turns out the media has gotten the ramifications of the story wrong, especially CNN, which decided for some reason to interview that know-nothing The Amazing Atheist. What does he know about...anything for that matter?
         I'll spare all of you his inane drivel and move on to World News Tonight. First of all, the anchors couldn't decide whether it's been 598 years or 400 years since a pope resigned. Second of all, it implied the next pope, as the video predicted the media would do, should be more "open" and "progressive" and "welcoming." Now, unlike other news rooms who would just say that and leave it at that, World News went one step further with these:
-Man-on-the-street sound bites that imply either society is leaving the Church behind or the Church needs "get with the times."
-an interview with a little girl who says the Church should give women the chance to be priests.
-an another bit where a young woman says the Church "needs to be more accepting of gay people." (This young lady lives in California; no surprise there).

After a short line from a representative for Leadership Conference of Women Religious (a group that came under fire from the Vatican for deviating from Church teachings), we then get this stats, some of which came from the USCCB no less:
-48% of American Catholics think abortion should be legal
-48% are in favor of so-called "gay marriage"
-59% say yes to having female Catholic priests

 So depending on which issue you look at, between 48% and 59% of American Catholics are heretics.

      Oh, get a load of this: not to be outdone, they then put in an anchor (I think it's Cokie Roberts, but don't hold me to that) who clearly has no understanding of Catholicism because she points out the cardinals are all ones appointed by either Benedict XVI or John Paul II and thus no real change (read: change liberals and pseudo-Catholics approve of) will happen with a new pope.

Maybe because of the vows I've personally taken, maybe it's because of the college I went to (won't say which, but it does get the seal of approval by the Newman Society), maybe it's because of the spirituality I follow, or the books I read, but I say whoever the next pope is, I hope the Holy Spirit will guide him to an even firmer stand than Benedict XVI. In fact, here's some things I'd like to see (though in the end, these won't be my personal call to make):

-a strict enforcement of Canon Law 915 when it comes to so-called Catholic politicians who thumb their noses at Church teaching
-an investigation into all Catholic schools. If this requires an Inquisition, so be it.
-free distribution of the Baltimore Catechism to all newlywed Catholic couples.
-easier access to either the Latin Mass or the new Anglican Rite Mass
-make the teaching concerning contraception an infallible teaching (again, not my call to make; I'm just saying I'd like to see it)
-calling out the USCCB if they make any ruling contrary to the Magisterium

I look forward to our next pope and I am confident the Church won't fail because we have assurance from Jesus Himself it won't fail.

New Blog Mission

I have thought about a new direction for this blog, and I was about to write a whole page of what the new direction will be, but then Michael Voris articulated it for me. More info to come as it develops.

Blog Hiatus

You may have noticed I have not posted anything on here for some time. I did have a good Christmas and New Years, but I've been considering taking this blog in a different direction....one that grasps the truth of atheism's evil. I will have more info when I can on this.

The Christmas War Chapter 3: Defacing more then Nativity Scenes

PORTLAND, Oregon — Police in Portland say a maximum $1,000 reward has been offered for information leading to an arrest in the case of Italian marble religious statues damaged at a Catholic shrine and botanical garden. Sgt. Pete Simpson says three statues were damaged this week, with the heads removed. Police recovered one of the statue heads Friday after a passer-by called to say it was perched on a post at the west end of the 62-acre site popularly known as The Grotto. That head belonged to a statue of the Virgin Mary. Still missing are heads belonging to statues of St. Joseph and the infant Jesus. Simpson says the statues are more than 100 years old. Crime Stoppers is offering the reward. http://www.therepublic.com/view/story/ad3005a4ec1545dcae042da58952eeac/OR--Statues-Damaged

More information will come as this develops. For now, I like one person's comment on the bottom:

Because atheists are so tolerant. Those who shout loudest for tolerance are the least tolerant of all, don't you agree?

Believe it or not, I pointed out this case to an atheist, and his explanation for it ( Just to clarify, he was not involved in it in any way)was---and I am not making this answer up--: "It's good this happened because this shows people religion is just a fairy tale."

Giving an explanation that will not come across anyone's mind to justify the unjustifiable...how atheist of whoever did this.

No wonder atheists are such morons.

The Christmas War Chapter 2: Merry Christmas beats Happy Holidays

Take your "Happy Holidays" and shove it. Finally, there's proof that Americans prefer "Merry Christmas."

By a wide margin, 68 percent to 23 percent, Americans prefer stores with signs that say "Merry Christmas" during the Christmas holidays than the more generic and secular "Happy Holidays," according to a new Rasmussen Reports survey.

And in all 34 of the categories the accurate and prominent pollster looks at, "Merry Christmas" was the hands-down winner.

A few examples:

-- Among men, it's 69 percent for "Merry Christmas," compared to 22 percent for "Happy Holidays."

-- Women: 67 percent to 23 percent.

-- Whites: 69 percent to 20 percent.

-- Blacks: 56 percent to 40 percent.

-- Republicans: 86 percent to 8 percent.

-- Democrats: 51 percent to 41 percent. (Click here for the article)

So there you have it...proof once again that atheists, with their secular nonsense, are morons.
