FIDELIS MILES MILITIS: "Open war" with the Pope?

THE FAITHFUL KNIGHT

I am a convert to the One, True Faith. I am also what is called a Traditional Roman Catholic (or prior to 1965, just a regular, every day Catholic). But contrary to what you may have been taught, I, like most Traditionalists, am not a sedevacantist. I am loyal to the Magisterium and to the Holy Father; I believe that the Second Vatican Council was a true Church council and that the Novus Ordo Missae (Mass of Paul VI) can confect a true Eucharist when the rubrics are followed by a properly ordained Catholic priest. However, I believe that the massive destruction over the past fifty-one years has NOT been due to a misinterpretation of the Council’s documents, but is due to the documents themselves. I also believe that the Novus Ordo is grossly inferior to the Traditional Latin Mass (the True Mass, "the most beautiful thing this side of Heaven"), is Protestant in its orientation, and is grievously harmful to the Faith.

I support all Traditional Latin Mass orders (non-Sedevacantists), to include the SSPX, FSSP, ICKSP, and all diocesan priests who struggle to celebrate the True Mass under often terrible conditions.

Lastly, I hope all Roman Catholics who believe, as Holy Mother Church has taught these past 2,000 years, that there is Extra Ecclesiam nulla salus, take up the Cross & the Sword, and claim the title of “Faithful Knight.”

--I believe that Christ founded One Church, and that there is NO salvation outside Her.

--I believe that Irish monks saved Western civilization.

--I believe that the Crusades were a good thing.

--I believe that Islam is still the greatest threat to Western civilization.

--I will never apologize for the Catholic Church and Her mandate by Christ to spread the Gospel.

--I believe that at the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), Luther won.

--I believe that homosexuality has devastated the Catholic priesthood.

--I believe that many Novus Ordo bishops are direct successors to only one Apostle, Judas Iscariot.

--I believe that Dante was correct: The floor of Hell is littered with the skulls of bishops.

--I believe the "Reform of the Reform" is a toothless dog.

--I believe that Communion in the hand, Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion, removal of the altar rails, and removal of our tabernacles from the altar of sacrifice, has destroyed Catholic belief in the Real Presence.

--I believe that Traditional Catholics are at war with Roman-Protestants for the very soul of Holy Mother Church....and We will win!

--I believe that Russia has not been consecrated to Our Lady’s Immaculate Heart by any Pope, and that parts of the Third Secret are still hidden by Rome.

--I believe that Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre will be raised to the altar as a Saint.

--I believe that if it were not for the Society of St. Pius X, Tradition would have died long ago.

--I believe that the Society of St. Pius X is the Marine Corps of Catholicism.

--I believe that the term "in full communion" is a sham. After all, per Rome, heretics like Cardinal Mahony and sodomites like Archbishop Weakland are "in full communion."

--I believe that the Republican Party is no different from the Democrat Party...and that they deserve each other.

--I believe that the U.S. Military produces the finest young men and women on the face of the earth.

--I believe that America has done more good for others around the world than any nation in history.

--I believe that our current Commander in Chief is a Marxist.

--I believe in the 2nd Amendment, just as the Fathers of our Nation did.

--I believe that the Death Penalty is a good thing.

--I believe in restoring all things in Christ.

"Open war" with the Pope?

Actually, the slaughter of the Ratzingerians

Il mattatoio dei Ratzingeriani

Poor Cardinal Bagnasco! First, the Archbishop of Genoa and President of the Italian Episcopal Conference (CEI) is removed from the composition of the Congregation for Bishops - we had mentioned in greater detail Cardinal Burke's replacement, but that of Cardinal Bagnasco was much more astounding considering his position in the episcopate of the Pope's very country. Then, one of his right-hand men, the Secretary-General of the CEI, Bp. Mariano Crociata, was removed and named Bishop of the small diocese of Latina (Latium), and replaced by a "social" bishop on Dec. 30, Bp. Nunzio Galantino, of Cassano (Calabria).

Naturally, Cardinal Bagnasco is just a figurehead now in the CEI. But even that is not enough for his enemies. For despite the amazing coincidence of the end of all "Vatileaks" rumors or threats via the media after February 2013 (indicating clearly that the Vatileakers got what they wanted, that is, the end of the Ratzinger pontificate), and all of Francis's repeated words against "gossip"..., intrigue and backstabbing are more intense in the Vatican now than at any time since the Council. So, despite all that Cardinal Bagnasco has suffered, in silence and fidelity to the Pope, a newspaper close to the Vatican liberals such as Il Fatto Quotidiano and its radical Vaticanist Francesco Grana can say:

"Cardinal Bagnasco, now in open war with Bergoglio, commented the Pontiff's decision by saying that this is 'a further sign of the attention and care of the Holy Father for the Church that is in Italy'."

"Open war"?... First, no Catholic would ever want to find himself in "open war" against the Pope, because that is a battle he will certainly lose. But, most importantly, this accusation is preposterous against the docile spirit of Cardinal Bagnasco. We only mention it here as an example of the vindictive spirit of the "Progressives" in the Vatican: they are in open war against all that smells even mildly Ratzingerian. The Ratzingerians themselves are just accepting the sacrifice as silent lambs. More a slaughter led by the Liberals than an "open war" then. The Vatileakers may have gotten what they wanted most, but their slaughterhouse has only just opened.
