Anonymous to the Cross is back!

After a blogging hiatus since April, the blog "Anonymous to the Cross" is back. It is said to be by a priest or two, in Rome. 

Things are going to get really interesting...


Nota bene; the blog is in Italian, some are reporting the inability to translate it but that may be your settings.

Vincent Long, CFM, Bishop of Parramatta blasphemes the Holy Spirit in the name of sodomy

A reader in Australia, which is undergoing a debate and plebiscite on so-called "marriage" between people of the same sex, has advised of scandalous "pastoral letter" by Vincent Long, OFM, the Bishop of Parramatta. We've written previously about this so-called, "bishop" and the suffering Catholics of Parramatta.

http://voxcantor.blogspot.ca/2016/09/bishop-nguyen-of-paramatta-walks-it-back.html
on. 

In his letter, Long, a Franciscan, writes about now each should vote according to their feelings and not by being a properly formed Catholic.

He actually blasphemes the Holy Spirit when he suggests, that the "Spirit" is saying something through the "signs of the times" that would test the truth of Holy Scripture and Catholic doctrine.

The Holy Spirit is not guiding this debate in Australia for Catholics to suddenly accept marriage within the same sex. The Holy Spirit is not a liar, but this Bishop, Vincent Long Van Nguyen is a liar, a deceiver and no doubt, a homosexualist.

What does this stupid man think that two men do together in bed? Just as with James Martin, they set up "straw men" and want you to believe it is all about love. It is not about which tea-cup and what colour the his and his towels are or the draperies, it is about felching and rimming and fisting and sodomy and oral copulation and slurp ramps and glory holes and coprophilia (as Bergoglio would know about). This is what two men do together. This so-called Bishop cares not about the poor souls, but instead, does not warn the person who will fall in to this deep sin which will take them to Hell.

It is not about love. No faithful Catholic hates anyone suffering with same-sex attraction. But we hate the sin in them as much as any in ourselves. That, is love.

The vote in Australia will no doubt fall in favour of those seeking this change in the definition of marriage. 

This Judas will be held accountable before God for his dereliction.

Pastoral letter on the same-sex marriage postal survey

Dear sisters and brothers,
As I write to you, the national debate on same-sex civil marriage is in full swing. It is an issue that many feel passionate about and hence, it has potential to polarise the community. I appeal to all Catholics in the Diocese of Parramatta to conduct this dialogue with a deep sense of respect for all concerned, and for the opinion and decision that each person is free to make.
It is important to remember from the very outset that the postal survey is about whether or not Australians want the legal definition of civil marriage changed to include same-sex couples. It is not a referendum on sacramental marriage as understood by the Catholic Church.
Many years ago, divorce was legalised in Australia; but this change did not alter the law of the Church. Therefore, whatever the outcome of the survey or the eventual legislation by the government, the Church will continue to hold that marriage is a natural institution established by God to be a permanent union between one man and one woman, directed both to mutual companionship and to the formation of a family in which children are born and nurtured.
For many Catholics, the issue of same-sex marriage is not simply theoretical but deeply personal. These may be same-sex attracted people themselves or that may be the case with their relatives and friends. In such cases, they are torn between their love for the Church and their love for their same-sex attracted child, grandchild, sibling, cousin, friend or neighbour.
As your bishop, I wish to reiterate the commitment I made at my installation: “I am committed to make the church in Parramatta the house for all peoples, a church where there is less an experience of exclusion but more an encounter of radical love, inclusiveness and solidarity.” As a community of disciples, we seek to accommodate, accompany and care for one another irrespective of sexual orientation, marital status and situation.
I invite all Catholics in our Diocese to exercise our responsibility as citizens to engage in this community discernment. It should not be a matter of a simple answer Yes or No to the postal survey. It should be an opportunity for us to witness to our deep commitment to the ideal of Christian marriage. But it should also be an opportunity for us to listen to what the Spirit is saying through the signs of the times.
Throughout much of history, our gay and lesbian (or LGBTI) brothers and sisters have often not been treated with respect, sensitivity and compassion. Regrettably, the Church has not always been a place where they have felt welcomed, accepted and loved. Thus, regardless of the outcome of the survey, we must commit ourselves to the task of reaching out to our LGBTI brothers and sisters, affirming their dignity and accompanying them on our common journey towards the fullness of life and love in God.
Let us pray, discern and act with the wisdom of the Holy Spirit. Catholics, in keeping with the tradition of the Church, are asked to exercise their consciences, ensuring that they are informed as they come to exercise their democratic rights in the coming postal survey.
Yours sincerely in Christ,
Most Rev Vincent Long Van Nguyen OFM Conv
Bishop of Parramatta

James Martin, S.J. - a man crying out in desperation for attention and secretly for help

One could blog nearly daily on the ravaged mind of James Martin, S.J., and the perverse, corrupted doctrine he bleats on Twitter, Facebook and in various media publications. Martin has been covered numerous times on this blog. Lately, I've avoided writing and instead, just end up shaking my head in disgust and in sadness for what this poor sick man has become.

Image result for james martin sjGiven his volume of activity on social media, one could rightly ask, "Does this priest ever pray his Office, or Rosary, does he spend an hour in adoration?" I think the answer must be, "no." How can it be otherwise? If a priest was rising early to read his Office and praying, and ministering to souls, and offering Mass well and hearing confessions, how could he have time to be as active on social media as Martin? How could he write that which he does in what can only be described as a pathological, deranged and obsessive promotion of homosexualism and an outright rejection of the Church's teaching on the grotesque sin of sodomy, effeminacy and same-sex behaviour.

In a recent interview at Fordham University, Martin has gone perhaps further to reveal the severely deranged and poisoned mind to the point where it can only be concluded that James Martin of the Society of Jesus must be possessed by the Devil, Satan himself. No Catholic priest, servant of Our Lord Jesus Christ could every state that which this wretched man does without being possessed by the Evil One. 


Martin and his cronies who leave comments here will no doubt call me a "hater." 


The truth is this; the real "hater" is James Martin. Martin hates himself, he hates Christ and His Church and the truth. He hates the men trapped in a sorrowful and suffering life of homosexuality. These men deserve our love because they are children of the same God. They deserve the truth, that the God who loves them does not expect them to live as they do. They were not born this way. Those who believe, this, who promote this, are liars.


In the Fordham interview, with Patrick Hornbeck, the Chairman of the Department of Theology, Hornbeck makes it clear that he is "married" to his "husband." How has Timothy Dolan, Cardinal Archbishop of New York not removed this man from his position? Let him sue. Take the lawsuit, pay him if you have to, but get him out.


In the interview, Martin states:



“He (a former Religious and friend of Martin) came out and has been with his partner for 20 years. His partner has a fairly serious illness that is at times extremely serious and requires a lot of attention. Mark has cared for him for, I think, 15–20 years now. And one of the questions I would like the institutional Church to reflect on is: 'Is this not love?'
"I have a hard time imagining how even the most traditionalist, homophobic, closed-minded Catholic cannot look at my (active homosexual) friend and say, 'That is a loving act, and that is a form of love that I don't understand but I have to reverence."

Martin dares to use the word "reverence" which has as a synonym, "adoration," something due only to Almighty God and states that we need to use this proper reverence to the people who practice acts of depravity. 

Let us be clear, Martin has set up a "straw-man." He wants you to believe it is all about "love." Of course, one friend should care for another in his sickness, that is what we should all do. But notice how this deceitful priest blends that idea of fraternal love with sodomitical debauchery. What does he think these two men do? It is not about "love."

Where are his Superiors?
James Martin is on his way to Hell. He must repent publicly of his grievous error and do penance. He must live a life of quiet reparation for what he has done to so many souls. Objectively speaking, if James Martin dies tonight, he will end up in Hell. He will be greeted there by those whom he deceived and joined sooner or later by those who failed to correct him.
Martin may interpret this as hate. The truth is, it is out of love for him and his priesthood that this is written.

Bergoglio says we will "go down." Well, some will go down - straight to Hell


As has become the custom from before Pope Bergoglio, no pope can travel anywhere without getting back on the aeroplane and having a presser, though this one has made a real "art" of it. Gosh, it makes one long for simpler days, you know, before popes decided that the world couldn't stand it if they weren't glad-handing and creating a whole damn economy around their star power or when news of the pope's death took a decade to reach the local parish. 

It's amazing how suddenly, when the southern United States has been hit with a hurricane or two, some have gone batty thinking this has never ever happened before. Oh, but of course, it's global warming, I mean, climate change.
"If we don't turn back, we will go down, you can see the effects of climate change and scientists have clearly said what path we have to follow. If someone is doubtful that this is true, they should ask scientists. They are very clear. These are not opinions made on the fly. They are very clear. Then each person can decide and history will judge the decisions,"

So says Bergoglio. What a bunch of lying bunk. What stupid drivel, and I am expected to believe that this Peronist, this politician, this NGO hack is the Vicar of Christ? Believe scientists? Junk science! So, is it now a sin in the Church of Bergoglio to refuse to bow to this fallacy? There are fossils of palms in Greenland and northern Alberta, what the heck does that tell us?

Climate changes, and then changes back and then to something else again.

Irma is the first Hurricane to hit Florida since Wilma, and that was in 2005. The worst in the last few decades were Andrew in 1992 and Charlie in 1994 and not even they compared to the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935 and were generally equal to the pre-named storm of 1919, Great Miami in 1925 and Okeechobee in 1928. In Texas, the most hurricanes and cyclones took place in the decade of the 1940's followed by the 1880's. In the seventeen years since 2000, the total is still less by one, compared to those of the 1880's. In 1900, 8000 souls perished in Galveston, Harvey has claimed 70, and may they rest in peace.

Yet, we are to believe that these hurricanes in Texas and Florida are a result of climate change. Well, it must be true because the Bergoglio of Rome said so.

Listen, Pope Bergoglio is entitled to his own opinions just like anyone else, but the one thing that this man is not entitled to, are his own facts; and his opinions mean nothing, nothing, nothing!

It's amazing how the world will listen to every word this bleating from this Pope Bergoglio's mouths off with when it comes to "climate change" but won't hear it when he speaks on those rare occasions of abortion and gender dysphoria. Well, one can understand that since he appoints abortionists to Vatican commissions and goes out of his way to be photographed with "transvestites." The media are as confused about Bergoglio as he is himself.

Speaking of "pro-life," he also says that Trump cannot be, if he gets in the way of DACA. Don't even get me started on that one.

Such poppycock, coming from a man whose carbon footprint in the last four years has exceeded this writer's entire carbon lifetime.

Just once, I would like a presser with Bergoglio to go like this:

Media:    Holy Father, there is so much strife in the world, so much suffering, what do you have to say about this?         
Pope Francis: I would say that the world has lost its bearing because it is not focused on the reality of the God-man, Jesus Christ. When the first Pope, St. Peter, walked on water to meet the Lord he started to sink. He took his eyes off of Jesus and he sank. It is only when we have our eyes and our hearts and our minds focused on this Jesus, this Christ, this true Saviour of the World, that we do not sink, do not "go down." The world is groaning for a lack of Christ, but it is because the world has rejected Him. Jesus Christ is God come to earth in the flesh, born at Bethlehem of a woman named Mary, a virgin. This is real, this is true. He came for his own who rejected Him, and he came for all, you and me. He came for Jew and Gentile. He came for those who call themselves Moslem, and Hindu and Buddhist. He came for those who believe in Him but follow their own way apart from his One, True Church and those who do not believe in Him or the One who sent Him. He came for all, but many reject Him. Come to Him. Come to Jesus, let him free you from your sins and the world from its suffering, because, there is no other Way, no other Truth and no other Light. There is no salvation apart from Jesus Christ and the Church which he founded for the salvation of the world.


 That is what this Pope should say. That is what any Catholic should say.


Eternal memory and rest unto their souls

More liturgical wars for the "bastard rite" - one more reason to leave it behind for Tradition

With a stroke of the pen, Pope Bergoglio has struck down the work of John Paul II and Benedict XVI in Liturgiam Authenticum and the Third Typical Edition of the Roman Missal.

https://rorate-caeli.blogspot.com/2017/09/breaking-motu-proprio-magnum-principium.html

https://www.americamagazine.org/faith/2017/09/09/breaking-pope-francis-gives-local-bishops-more-responsibility-mass-translations

No doubt, as a payback to the Germans and others who simply refuse to translate, "pro multis" as "for many" and continue to disobey the order of Benedict XVI to translate it properly, Bergoglio has thrown the matter of translations to the bishops. It would seem unlikely that the English speaking bishops, after all the time, stress and money spent since 2011 on the more correct translation of the Novus Ordo Missae, would return to the former, but they may allow it as an option. The Third Edition of the Roman Missal is still only in Latin and English. All others, to this day, use the 1974 Missal.

Make no mistake, along with the deviations allowed in Amoris Laetitia from place to place, this action by the great liturgist Bergoglio will lead to an even greater disunity within the Catholic Church.

Whether or not Bergoglio has the right to do this is not the question. It is a notorious act on the part of this man and his filthy minions. The photo below is of this Bergoglio in Colombia. Look at him, he bypasses the kneeler to stand before the Lord Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament.

How can he do this? How can this man not kneel?  Yet, Catholic modernists, as is already happening on Twitter, will overflow with effervescent praise for this divisive and destructive action on the part of this man.


It is just one more reason to abandon the bastard rite. A so-called "Mass" that is different from country to country, diocese to diocese, parish to parish and even within the parish from different priests. Notwithstanding the narrow line that makes it valid, this rotten fruit of Paul VI is unstable, it is irreligious, it is not proper worship to Almighty God, it is horizontal, man-centred, ecumenical and masonic.

This Bergoglio will not stop at this, it is only the beginning.

Get out of it and get to the traditional Mass even if that means that the only choice is the Society of St. Pius X. Your faith and that of your loved ones depends upon it.

Michael Coren declares that Vox Cantoris makes a "heavy mark!"

My old friend and brother Knight of Columbus, Michael Coren, is up to it again. I dare say there is some kind of obsession that causes him to come back so often and to ruminate on us. Clearly, we bloggers have more influence than perhaps we thought and we are leaving a "heavy mark."

Back when we were friends, Michael would telephone me often at home and on mobile to chat and prod me about Catholic issues leading up to and after his book, about Catholics being "right." What a maroon! If we were "right" then, we didn't suddenly become wrong. I sat in his home, had coffee and even booked him to speak at a conference and got him other gigs. I helped put money in his pocket. Sorry, for that, friends. Coren would often telephone me frequently to chat, he often speculated on which Toronto priest was "gay" and if I had any proof of it. This was a real interest for him. At more than one public event, he asked me to do some "advance" and distraction from certain people whom he did not like to receive questions from. One specifically at the University of Toronto I regret doing because the good woman has passed to her eternal reward and was right about her views and advice to me on Michael. May dear Ursula forgive me.

One day, after his departure from the faith, he did an interview on video with the CBC. In that video, the CBC flashed a Tweet with my name on it with Coren alleging that I wrote something to him. It was designed to look as if I Tweeted a certain comment. I had not. Coren took a private email which I sent to him, something I forwarded to him without changing the subject line, it clearly began with, "re:"  It was an email from that same Ursula, expressing grief over Michael's comments supporting Hillary Clinton and her stance on abortion. The subject line referred to the "pure evil" of Clinton's statement and by extension, Coren's seeming endorsement of that opinion. Because all of us, including Ursula, had known Michael and his wife from The Toronto Oratory. Ursula was grieved, as were all of us, over what was happening with our old friend. Coren took that email, as if it were a comment from me and attached my name to it, and made it look as if it were my Tweet. Yet, I do not Tweet under my name, but under, Vox Cantoris and there, on The National, was my name for all to see. I was being slandered and mocked in a very public way. A private email from me to Michael Coren was used to slander me by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, a "crown-corporation" which, as a Canadian, I theoretically own shares in. It was broadcast on The National, Canada's national evening news program on the CBC, nationwide and on YouTube, Facebook and Twitter. I was accused of stating something which I did not state. That ,,Michael Coren was "pure evil."

I filed a complaint with the CBC ombudsman. The action was pretty quick. The Executive Producer of The National withdrew the video from their web page, Facebook and Twitter and after it was proved that Coren could not prove to the CBC that I said or wrote the words I was alleged to have written, the video with the false accusation of words by me, was edited out and the CBC apologised.

As a certain cleric learnt, if you're going to come after this writer, you need to get up early in the morning, and I'm up before dawn!

Michael has now paid me, and even more, my good friend at Toronto Catholic Witness, Barona, with a great compliment; and for that I thank him and am pleased to let him know that all is forgiven.


"Even more blatant than Lifesite are blogs such as the Ontario-based Vox Cantoris and Toronto Catholic Witness, with less significance but still making a heavy mark."

Indeed, Michael, on this point you, along with us Catholics are "right." 

Oh and do me this favour would you? Donate one dollar for every hit this sends to your article to Courage Toronto or Campaign Life Coalition for the publicity I am sending back to you.

After all, it would only be "right."

The purge of faithful Catholics from the Church and the even greater need for calling out of error

Image result for professor josef seifertProfessor Josef Siefert has been expelled by the Church from the philosophical institute which he had founded, which came under control of the Archbishop of Granada. Dr. Siefert was a faithful Catholic and a respected philosopher with an intellect that would put the likes of Bergoglio and his minions to shame. His crime? State the obvious - that Jorge Bergoglio has promulgated a heretical document known as Amoris Laetitia.


In Columbia, where Beroglio now travels, another faithful Catholic, Jose Galat, has been excommunicated for questioning Bergoglio's legitimate claim to the Chair of Peter and for exposing his pernicious heresy.


We are now facing a new "Inquisition."

It is unacceptable that faithful Catholics who question the obvious heresy and insult spouted from the mouth and mind of the Bishop of Rome and those minions surrounding him, should be persecuted and "excommunicated," by men who clearly, hate the faith, hate the faithful and hate the Divine Founder, Our Lord Jesus Christ. They are Arians at best and most likely, Satanists. They either don't believe that Jesus is God or they do and they seek to destroy His Church and His faithful because of it.

My Catholic brothers and sisters, you must wake up to the evil that has come upon the Church, you must keep the faith and not be intimidated by these faithless, filthy men. There time is very short and we will need to pick up the pieces and rebuild, and that we will, with the help and grace of the Lord whom we love.

Cardinal Caffarra, may he rest in peace


Cardinal Caffarra, has died suddenly. While said to be ill, his death seems to have come as a surprise. May he rest in the peace of Christ, whom he loved.

The Cardinal is the second of the four "dubia" Cardinals to pass away in the last few months, the first being Cardinal Meisner.

Raymond Cardinal Burke has issued a statement:

“With the death of Cardinal Carlo Caffarra the Church has lost the earthly presence of an exemplary priest, Bishop and Cardinal. Having enjoyed the great gift of knowing Cardinal Caffarra over many years and of working very closely with him during the these last years in the safeguarding and promoting of the Church’s constant teaching and practice regarding Holy Matrimony and the Holy Eucharist, I can testify that he was completely and solely inspired by a deep and pure love of Christ and of Christ’s Mystical Body, the Church. His purity of heart was always evident to me and was an unfailing inspiration. His knowledge of the Church’s doctrine and discipline was the fruit of years of study, which he continued until the end, for the sake of giving the best possible care to souls. Just recently, he related to me how he was studying the texts of Blessed Cardinal John Henry Cardinal Newman on conscience in preparation for a public lecture in England. While I mourn deeply the loss of his earthly presence, I am confident that his love of Christ and of the Church will continue. I count upon the help of his prayers in carrying out my weighty responsibility as a teacher of the faith and a doctor of souls. May the good and faithful Cardinal rest in peace.”

Its seems to this writer that Cardinals Burke and Brandmuller should avail themselves of food-tasters, body-guards and bullet vests under their albs and if you think I'm wearing a tin-foiled hat then you've not studied history.

Of Bergoglian earmuffs and socks

Image result for pope in ear muffsFrom the great liturgical mind of Jorge Bergoglio from the latest interview by this man thrust upon the Seat of Peter by evil men.
"On the contrary, traditionalist ideology has a faith like this [the pope makes a gesture of putting on earmuffs]. “The benediction should be done like this. In Mass, fingers should be like this, with gloves, like before …” What Vatican II has done with the liturgy has been something truly grand, because it has opened worship of God to the people. Now the people participate." 
Ideology? 

If anyone has an ideology it is the modernists and liberals who hate Christ, hate the tradition of the Church and even resent the few crumbs that Ratzinger sprinkled to comfort a few.   

What a stupid, ignorant, boorish man. 

Rather than ear muffs over his hears perhaps he should try a sock in the mouth.
