00:00
and now coming to you from an undisclosed location
it's the Novus Ordo watch cast [Music] I have a confession to make

00:01
I have to admit I've been really scared preparing for this episode there is such
a tremendous amount of stuff that ought to be talked about here I didn't even
want to look at it all but here we are it is trap cast number 23 thanks for
tuning in once again and welcome [Music]
by the way for the best possible podcast
experience we suggest you accept cookies
specifically we recommend chocolate chip and peanut butter those go great with
some tea or coffee as you sit back relax and listen to the show and a little
humor here everything else is serious enough come
on you know this podcast was supposed to be ready for release no later than

00:02
September 30th and here we are in the middle of November well I can tell you
that the main reason for this delay was the whole drama that began on August
25th with the release of the first testimony of the former Vatican NCO to
the United States Carlo Maria Vigano that whole drama
which is still ongoing of course really threw a monkey wrench into everything
because it added an extra layer of breaking news research and commentary to
an already very busy news cycle so it's just tough you know it's tough to keep
track of everything to keep it all straight and of course you have to
ensure that you don't unwittingly end up publishing fake news so well we want
everyone to be able to come to novels order watch and know that what you're
reading is reliable and credible okay you may not like what you see but that's
another story just the other day I was thinking of

00:03
compiling a list of big-name normal sort
o and semi traditionalist apologists and pundits who used to defend Frances but
have given up cents because it just got too ridiculous here's the list of names
I came up with off the top of my head father John Zul store Geoffrey Maris
Patrick Madrid Jimmy akin Tim Haynes Michael Voris Phil
Waller Michael Matt Christopher Ferrara Patrick coffin and Taylor Marshall and
all of these have either turned on Francis after trying for a while to spin
everything in the best possible way or they've simply stopped defending him
because it just became a full-time job to
explain this guy right so I and I think that's a that's a pretty significant
list that's quite a few names and and those are just the names that I can

00:04
think of off the top of my head now why am i mentioning this well just as a
little reality check to keep in the back
of your mind for all those listeners who are new to our website or to this
podcast or the state of akanda 'sm in general you know 5 1/2 years ago we were
criticized or ridiculed by a number of different novel sore toes and resistance
traditionalists and now everyone can see
what that criticism was really worth you didn't have to be a psychic to see back
then already that bergoglio was not a Catholic all you needed to know was the
basics of Catholicism and understand how
modernism works unfortunately though too many people allow emotion or human
respect to determine what they believe it's just not cool not socially
acceptable to be a say of a contest and while for most people that is
everybody's own personal business it's a different matter when you run a website

00:05
a blog a newspaper or a video channel or something and then publish your
rationalizations to the world because now you're responsible for the people
you mislead and I'm afraid that we see this happen a lot we continually find
supposedly traditional Catholic or conservative Catholic websites willing
to publish all sorts of crazy ideas about the papacy in order to address the
let's call it the Francis phenomenon okay but there is one theory they will
not tolerate they will not admit SATA mechanism as even a possibility that is
the one thing they won't allow and so they don't mind if the ideas that they
putting forth are in direct contradiction to the Catholic doctrine
on the papacy as long as they don't have to say that Francis is not the Pope
they're more ready to say that being doesn't mean much than to say that

00:06
Francis isn't the Pope that's how crazy and absurd it's gotten and those few
that do say now that Francis isn't Pope hold that it's only on the grounds that
Benedict the sixteenth is really the Pope because he never resigned validly
or that the 2013 Conclave was invalid because of some violation of Conclave
rules by the so-called st. Gallen mafia and for a recent example of what's being
proposed as traditional Catholicism look no further than the remnant on November
8th a writer by the name of Jason Morgan published a blog post entitled SATA
vacation ISM and in a somewhat light-hearted manner he proposed as a
solution to the Franciscan Dundrum the idea that a pope remains pope even if he
is clearly a heretic it's just that at that point at the point it becomes
evident he must be refused submission he didn't use those exact words but that's

00:07
basically what he argued and so to him that is kind of a best of both worlds
synthesis of state of account ISM on the one hand and the idea that Francis is
fully Pope on the other a pope in name only scenario now that this idea is both
heretical and systematic either didn't occur to him or didn't matter to him
because hey diabolical disorientation or something we can just decide to suspend
the perennial validity of Catholic teaching because we decide it's
necessary that's what these people think apparently now on November 9th we
published a devastating response to Morgan's blog post entitled missing the
forest for the trees and we've got it linked in the show notes for this
episode tract cast 23 you can find that at track cast dot org just scroll down

00:08
to episode 23 and then click on that link so because we have it linked I'm
not going to repeat all the arguments here now that we make in the blog post
you can just go and read them for self which you'll want to do anyway
because as always we have all our ducks in a row in terms of documenting the
evidence for our position we don't just sound off at the keyboard here and say
stuff about such a serious matter without backing it up
so in short for the semi traditionalists the the recognize and resist
traditionalists like those at the remnant the name of the game is still
anything but state of account ISM and judging by recent articles and things
it's the season again for desperately trying to find arguments against state
of account ISM and that's no doubt because more and more people are
becoming said of economist or are seriously looking into the position once

00:09
they've overcome the initial biases against it or misconceptions about it of
course for some people perhaps the real hang-up is the name save if account is
'm sounds horrible doesn't it now some of you listening might not know of what
it actually means the term comes from the phrase say de vacante that's Latin
and means the chair being empty and is in reference to the chair of st. Peter
which we believe is vacant that is there is no Pope and there has not been one
since Pius the 12th died in 1958 at least not that we have certain knowledge
of you know Santa mechanists are simply the Catholics who refused to change
their religion after Pius the 12th died and their progeny of course plus new
converts but that's really all it is if you want to find one group of people
that believes exactly what the church believed and taught while pi is the

00:10
twelfth was still Pope it's say Davich honest no other group that calls itself
traditionally Catholic does that not the Semite rats nope not the Society of st.
Pius the tenth not the fraternity of st. Peter and other indole groups not the
new resistance as as px now I understand that they mean to but they don't an
actual fact and since they acknowledge the modernist
hierarchs as valid catholic authorities but nevertheless refused their religion
they've had to mess with Catholic doctrine on church authority in order to
justify that you can't have the Catholic hierarchy teaching one thing and the
faithful believing another that's not how authority works in the Catholic
Church and in that case you might just as well not have a hierarchy at all
because it's worse than useless it's dangerous and a hindrance to
salvation we said if our Kaunas have simply remained what catholics were up

00:11
until 1958 we believed no strange new doctrines and we do not refuse
submission to anyone we acknowledge as a legitimate Catholic Authority now it's
true that the consequence of that given what has happened is that we are
basically left bewildered unable to point to any legitimate scheppers that
we know of but that is what it is that's just the situation we find
ourselves in and st. Paul says in a second letter to the Corinthians we walk
by faith and not by sight that's 2nd Corinthians 5 verse 7 and we
don't have all the answers but we don't have to have all the answers and at
least we don't mess around with church teaching to make it fit and what we want
to see because once again we're Catholics so then why don't we just call
ourselves that why do we call ourselves set of a connaissance that's such a

00:12
cumbersome and scary sounding word well because unfortunately in our day the
term Catholic is totally ambiguous everyone claims to be a Catholic
everyone whether it's richer or or Nancy Pelosi on the left or Robert Barron and
Karl Keating in the center or Bishop Richard Williamson and Marian Horvat on
the right so to simply say we're Catholic doesn't I'm afraid tell you
anything anymore it just doesn't communicate which used
to be communicated by that term so we cannot simply say well we're Catholics
even though that is indeed all and all we care to be alright let's look
at some more or less recent news headlines I'm sure you've heard about
the Vatican China deal a provisional agreement between the unholy sea and
communist China concerning the appointment of Catholic Bishops well
Novus Ordo bishops but you know they call it Catholic Bishops well this

00:13
agreement that France is authorized has brought all the government appointed
bishops of the communist controlled Chinese National Church into full
communion with Rome and has made them the legitimate bishops of their dioceses
some of which dioceses were even created
by the communist government and not even by the Vatican and they're now
legitimate dioceses so with a with a stroke of a pen
Francis handed it all over to the chickens and is leaving the persecuted
underground church hanging out to dry in
exchange for the chai calms allowing him to veto certain bishops appointments
something like that it's utterly disgraceful and a total betrayal of the
people who through all the communist persecution over the decades have
remained faithful to the Holy See or to the what they thought was the Holy See

00:14
the sysm between China and the Holy See started in the 1950s when Pope Pius the
12th condemned the false communist-controlled hierarchy they had
established and you can read about that in what I believe was Pius the 12th last
encyclical at a postal orem principies of June 29th 1958 and of course we have
that link for you in the show notes well
I think it's not surprising why wouldn't the modernist Vatican make a deal with
China I mean they're just as communist as China now so it makes sense okay
might as well declare full communion now unlike the SSPX the Society of st. Pius
the tenth is not yet in full communion with the modernist Vatican but they're
working on it and I'm sure that before long they too will enjoy
status in the new church alright let's stay with the Vatican a bit longer on

00:15
September 11th the private secretary of Benedict the 16th who also happens to be
the head of the papal household of Francis arch layman guerre against vine
gave a lecture praising the book the Benedict option by the American author
and columnist Rod Dreher the occasion was the official release of
the Italian translation of that work which had been released in English in
March of 2017 now I haven't read the book but as far
as I understand there's nothing really objectionable in it the main thesis of
the book is that Christians should withdraw to some extent from mainstream
society into special communities in order to keep the faith and keep
ourselves away from the allurements of the world kind of like Saint Benedict
that's that's the main thesis of the book and there's no problem with that I

00:16
don't think and no the problem is with what ghin spine said in his speech
first of all in 2016 before he published this book Rod Dreher converted from the
Novus Ordo religion which he believed to be Catholicism to Eastern Orthodoxy now
that is a scandal but of course against fine said nothing about that and acted
like this book was written by a Catholic and he treated the author accordingly
although even by novel sort of standards
get this even by noble sort of standards drear defected into sysm and heresy but
then that's par for the course a Novus Ordo line all the baptized are
Christians no matter what they have a right to religious liberty and in any
case conscience is primary and we're all one big happy ecumenical family anyway
and drear by the way converted to Eastern Orthodoxy because of the sex

00:17
abuse scandals yeah even says that in any case that is not the main thing I
want to focus on what I want to focus on is what gainst vine says during his
speech regarding the German Lutheran theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer who is
somewhat well-known because he was part of the resistance against the Nazi
regime and was executed for it on April 9th 1945 in a concentration camp
here is what Ganz vine says quote we had learned earlier from st. john paul ii
that in our historical hour the true and perfect accumulator
allowing us to call in our need upon the saint
Edith Stein next to Dietrich Bonhoeffer as intercessors in heaven unquote
unbelievable unbelievable again spine is

00:18
saying that a Lutheran theologian died a martyr and is now in heaven because he
was executed by the Nazis now mind you he did not die a Catholic it's not like
he converted shortly before his death or something no he went to his death as a
Lutheran in the 15th century the Council of Florence defined the following quote
those not living within the Catholic Church not only pagans but also Jews and
heretics and schismatics cannot become participants in eternal life but will
depart into everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels
unless before the end of life the same have been added to the flock and no one
whatever almsgiving he has practiced even if he has shed blood for the name
of Christ can be saved unless he has remained in the bosom and unity of the
Catholic Church unquote and that's from the Bull cantate domino of the Council

00:19
of Florence and you can find that in den zinger number 7:14 what Gentz fine said
clearly implies a denial of this teaching and that is so even if we
assume that Bonhoeffer was in good faith that is if he innocently did
not realize that his heresies were contrary to God's revelation and if we
assume that he died in perfect contrition and therefore in the state of
sanctifying grace and went to heaven the church could still not consider him a
saint or a martyr because he did not profess the true faith but was the
member of a heretical sect and gave no sign of repudiating his adherence to
Lutheranism you know these matters are very important well not not in Novus
Ordo mind of course but that's just the point
so for again swine to act as the bone heifer were a Catholic saint and a
martyr saying that we can now call upon him as our intercessor in heaven is a

00:20
monstrous scandal and yet there is no outcry no one in the audience probably
even recognized that as a heresy and I know it's a touchy subject because it
involves Nazis and concentration camps and all that but that has nothing to do
with the principle resisting the Nazis the way Bonhoeffer and countless others
did was a very heroic and Noble thing to do but that doesn't make you a Catholic
or a saint that's the point now again swine is no stranger to
heresies had to say in a Christmas interview in 2016 again swine was asked
what he would answer to someone who asked him to prove the existence of God
here is how he responded quote there is neither proof that God exists nor is
there proof that God does not exist faith does not operate based on proof

00:21
faith lives by witnesses and witnessing if I'm convinced by a witness and by
what he says then this sets faith ablaze everything else does not lead to faith
but remains outside of faith this is true also and especially in our times
unquote that is heresy pure and unadulterated heresy the name of this
heresy is fede ISM and it denies the dogma of the proved ability of the
existence of by reason alone which was defined at the
first Vatican Council on April 24th 1870 in the dogmatic Constitution de Phileas
quote if any one shall have said that the one true God our Creator and our
Lord cannot be known with certitude by those things which have been made by the
natural light of human reason let him be
anathema if any one shall have said that divine revelation cannot be made
credible by external signs and for this reason men ought to be moved to faith by

00:22
the internal experience alone of each one or by private inspiration let him be
anathema if any one shall have said that
miracles are not possible and hence that all accounts of them even those
contained in Sacred Scripture are to be banished among the fables and myths or
that miracles can never be known with certitude and that the divine origin of
the Christian religion cannot be correctly proved by them let him be
anathema unquote and that's from den zinger numbers 1806 1812 and 1813 that
was the first Vatican Council now this dogma of the ability of our
reason to prove the existence of God and
the credibility of divine revelation etc
this Dogma is absolutely crucial because it is the foundation of the Catholic
religion may you take that away and all you have left is emotion and
arbitrariness and that's exactly what Protestants have at least those

00:23
Protestants that are fides I'm not sure that all of them are but certainly most
of them they make what they call a leap of faith but that's not a virtue it's
pure foolishness by the same token you might as well believe anything else and
I mean anything if you simply believe without any rational reason to do so
then whether you adhere to Jesus Christ or to Muhammad or to Buddha or to the
Flying Spaghetti Monster it's all the same the reason for belief is the same
you simply so choose but the true religion is not based on a whim it is
based on reason I mean that our belief in God and his
revelation is eminently reasonable the existence of one transcendent God who is
all good who is all-knowing all-powerful who made
the world and so forth can be proved by reason alone from history it can be

00:24
shown that Jesus of Nazareth claimed to be the true God incarnate and proved it
by many miracles especially his very own resurrection from the dead and this
Jesus Christ established a church to last until the end of time to teach the
divine truth that is necessary for all men to be saved and whatever this church
teaches as divinely revealed this we accept on faith
meaning on the authority of God who reveals it and who can neither lie nor
make a mistake so our faith is grounded in reason
not in our betray honest otherwise if it were all arbitrary then no one could be
said to have an obligation to embrace the faith to begin with and any religion
would be as good as any other and anyone's choice of religion would be as
good as anyone elses which incidentally is exactly what the modernists

00:25
ultimately believe you know as long as you believe in something right against
fine is a genuine modernist heretic but I don't think I've ever seen him getting
bad press from the conservative novels orders or from the Semite rats because
you know how it is as long as you oppose abortion and hold the line on other
issues of sexual morality in the new church you're golden for a lot of these
people and gainst fine often appears with benedict xvi since he's his
secretary and i guess just for that reason alone he gets a pass but this is
serious business to be a heretic it doesn't matter what Dogma you deny it
doesn't have to be about adultery or the divinity of Christ for example all
heresies are equal in the sense that they all reject one thing that God has
revealed and prefer one's own judgment over that of God
and so it's actually kind of secondary what Dogma it is you reject once you've

00:26
made yourself the standard of what is true over against God you've rejected
the whole thing in principle and that's why heresy and apostasy differ only in
degree and not in kind the heretic denies one or several dogmas but
continues to call himself a Christian the apostate rejects everything hook
line & sinker and that's why modernism is so dangerous
by subverting the very foundation of all faiths of what it means to have faith
okay by denying the very concept of faith and dogma modernism completely
undermines the entire religion and is therefore a true apostasy a complete
falling away from the faith let me quote you housing Pius the tenth described
modernism in as encyclical posh nd number 39 quote and now with our eyes

00:27
fixed upon the whole system no one will be surprised that we should define it to
be the synthesis of all heresies undoubtedly were any one to attempt the
task of collecting together all the errors that have been broached against
the faith and to concentrate into one the SAP and substance of them all he
could not succeed in doing so better than the modernists have done they have
gone further than this for as we have already intimated their system means the
destruction not of the Catholic religion alone but of all religion unquote the
logical end result of modernism is atheism and that's why there has been
such a tremendous falling away from the Catholic faith since Vatican 2 all right
this was pretty dense let's move on to something a bit lighter now the Vatican
is creating an international Observatory against cyberbullying according to the

00:28
website Rome reports that's not wrong or anything but it just
goes to show how once again the Vatican is concerned about and involved in every
except in what they're actually supposed to be doing I mean if that were the
Catholic Church how about an international Observatory monitoring
preventing and fighting the spread of false doctrines for example or bad books
bad movies pornography I haven't heard anything in that regard lately no
because you see it's all about conscience and religious freedom and
maturity and whatnot besides they're way too busy trying to get plastic straws
out of oceans and promoting clean water for everyone and meteorite care yeah did
you hear about that the Vatican hosted a conference on the care of meteorites
back in September the community of curators has been trying to organize

00:29
itself for many years this workshop represents a wonderful
opportunity for us and I'm excited and pleased that the Vatican Observatory can
host such an important meeting set some Jesuit dufus there for years meteorite
curators have had to figure things out independently now we are finally coming
together as a community I mean you can't make this stuff up yeah it's all linked
in the show notes it's all there you can
look it up yourself if you don't believe me look I wouldn't probably believe it
myself if I didn't know it was true it is beyond absurd
let me quote you something from a Zenit news report of October 26th regarding a
joint statement of the presidents of five Continental Novus Ordo bishops
conferences in it they're calling on governments to ensure doing the

00:30
following quote keeping global warming below 1.5 degrees Celsius shifting
towards sustainable lifestyles respecting the knowledge of indigenous
communities implementing a financial paradigm shift in line with global
climate Accords transforming the energy sector by putting an end to the fossil
fuel era and transitioning to renewable energy and rethinking the agriculture
sector to ensure it provides healthy and accessible food for everyone with a
special emphasis on promoting agro ecology unquote need i say more
then in his message for the world day of
prayer for the care of creation released on September 1st Pope Francis said this
quote we cannot allow our seas and oceans to be littered by endless fields

00:31
of floating plastic here to our active commitment is needed to confront this
emergency unquote you know what this world is drowning in it's drowning in
heresy and apostasy and infidelity and ignorance in all sorts of doctrinal and
philosophical errors in vice and pornography and selfishness and that is
a true emergency an emergency of souls but Francis is a naturalist his primary
concern is the temporal world and that's also why he's so popular among so many
Rowling's Saint John the Evangelist wrote this in Sacred Scripture quote
they are of the world therefore of the world they speak and the world heareth
them unquote that's 1st John chapter 4 verse 5
Frances concern is not the honor and glory of God and the salvation of souls

00:32
his concern is making the world a better place now let's be clear
most of these concerns are entirely legitimate in themselves that not media
right care give me a break but you know access to clean water oceans free of
plastic better education save for playgrounds stronger adhesives for your
dentures whatever that's all fine and good but it's got nothing to do with the
mission of the Vatican that's not the Pope's job
that's not why Christ instituted the papacy no one needs a pope if his job is to
tell people to emit fewer greenhouse gases exercise more or be nice to each
other anyone can do that the German journalist
Alexander Kistler once referred to Francis as a UN secretary-general with a

00:33
pectoral cross Touche Touche although considering that his spectral Cross has
all the Grace and style of the bottle opener no you know again
Francis is a naturalist and naturalism is one of the central components of
modernism recall that on February 1st of this year and as daily homily he
reflected on death without mentioning judgment heaven or hell that's what a
naturalist does and we saw it again just the other day on November 8th he
received the Prince of Denmark in private audience and you know what he
told him he told him that quote the environment is the most important
challenge of our time unquote and that's according to the web site info vaticana
well I think I've gotten my point across all right moving on with regards to the
case of Asya Bibi I'm sure you've heard about it Asya Bibi is a Pakistani woman

00:34
a Catholic well a Novus Ordo but that's what she knows as Catholicism and she's
been imprisoned there for roughly nine years on charges of blasphemy against
Islam Pakistan is like 95% or so Muslim she was just declared innocent by the
Pakistani Supreme Court but now they're afraid to actually set her free because
the rabble is roused against her and wants to lynch her because they disagree
with the court so right now there are conflicting reports about whether she's
still in Pakistan or whether she's been secretly flown somewhere else or whether
any country is going to grant her asylum or what all right well anyway for years
her family had been trying to get an audience with Francis
and they they couldn't they were not successful and so one day in April of 2015

00:35
her family showed up in the VIP section at a general audience and Frances you
know he walked past them and he met them
but he had it was clear he had no regard for them he listened to the lawyer that
was with them explained who they were but then he quickly passed them by and
just said he prays for all the persecuted or something like that it was
really disgraceful and we're putting the link of that video in the show notes so
you can see how he acted then with regard to them now he did finally grant
them an audience a private audience in February of this year but he has never
to my knowledge spoken out in public about the matter never called for her
release or anything of the kind and of course you wonder why why is that what's
going on here he who is supposedly always standing up for the defenseless
the persecuted the marginalized those without a voice
you know why is he so silent regarding the case of Asya Bibi well I think we

00:36
now have the answer you see hacia Bibi was accused of blasphemy because she
proselytized a Muslim woman reports on the details
differ a little bit but basically what happened is that she was working in a
field with some Muslim women back in 2009 and at one point she went to get
water from a well and next to the well she found a little cup and decided to
use it to drink some of the water herself and as one of the other women
approached be be offered the cup with water also to her a very Catholic
Christian and generally nice thing to do but the Muslim woman was offended and
said that Christians are not permitted to drink from the same cup as Muslims
drink and the water in it was therefore now unclean and Asia Bibi then said
quote I believe in my religion and in Jesus Christ who died on the cross for

00:37
the sins of mankind what did your prophet muhammad' ever do
to save mankind unquote and that is what got the ball rolling and what started
the persecution and the allegations of blasphemy I have to say my hats off to
her that was a very courageous and charitable thing of her to do god bless
her and I think that that is the real reason why Francis won't speak out won't
really defend her and only granted a private audience after years of her
family trying to get one Francis won't stand up for Asya bebe in my opinion
because she engaged in real hardcore evangelization of Muslims she gave
testimony to her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and showed that Muhammad is a

00:38
false prophet and then France's religion that is anathema because that is
proselytism and he condemns that remember what he said on October 13 2016
in the Vatican a Lutheran girl from Germany had asked him whether she should
be content to have secular friends that she gets along with or whether she
should make an effort to convert them here is what Francis said in response
quote listen the last thing you must do is to speak you have to live as a
Christian like a Christian convinced forgiven and on a path it is not licit
to convince them of your faith proselytism is the strongest poison
against the ecumenical path well he's got that right
you must give testimony to your Christian life testimony will unsettle
the hearts of those who see you and from this unsettling grows one question but

00:39
why does this man or this woman live like that unquote see for Francis what
you're supposed to do is be nice to people
caress the elderly open a soup kitchen clean up the environment and then wait
till someone asks so why are you doing this and then
you can see something like because I love Jesus Christ well you know like
like people of other religions couldn't also do those things it's unbelievable
that's not what Christ told us to do I mean yes of course he told us practice
of works of mercy spiritual and corporal works of mercy but that's not what
Christ said with regard to mission and evangelization that's not how that works
the churches missionaries preached the gospel they preached the necessity of
conversion not not forcing anybody to convert of course but just preaching
that it is necessary for them for them to convert if they wish to be saved and

00:40
there are different ways of doing that of course you know depending on
circumstances one approach is sometimes better than another but at the end of
the day that's what has to be done that's what has to be communicated and
you can see that in the New Testament especially in the Acts of the Apostles
beginning in chapter 2 so in any case that is what I think is at the root of
France's refusal to help Asya be be that plus the fact that her
case makes Islam look bad and you know how it is for these people when the
facts get in the way of your ideology well that's just too bad for the facts
well I'd say it's a time to take a break now we'll continue with more trap cast

can produce in the long run and please understand that you always only see the
final product you don't see how much effort is made behind the scenes how
many hours are spent compiling sources researching claims looking up Catholic
teaching and ebooks and verifying quotes
editing and rewriting text and so on and sometimes you know things just don't
work out you might spend an hour looking
for a particular video clip only to find out once you've found it that it really
doesn't give you what you thought it would and then you can't use it and then
at other times you just you have to do hardware upgrades or just administrative

00:45
stuff right and or correspondence and I mean this is a nonprofit organization
and so there is you know a lot of office
stuff involved as welders bookkeeping to do and reports to file and things like
that so if you're ever tempted to think sometimes that nothing is happening here
please don't think that okay and anyway I want to thank everyone who's been
supporting all sort of watch we've had a good year
I'd say about as good as last year and you may have noticed that we only had
one single fundraiser this year during Lent and that's because no other
fundraiser was necessary and hey recently you've been able to
contract another researcher and writer so that's a great news that is one of
the fruits of your generosity so please keep it up if everyone who benefits from
this podcast and this website helps out just a little bit than this apostle it

00:46
can really flourish alright enough of that let's do let's do something fun now
I think it's time for a new episode in our ongoing series from the Jorge's mouth
[Music] from the Jorge's mouth [Music] oh yeah man if only I got a quarter
every time this man's jaw moves I'd be able to pay off the u.s. national debt
in a week Francis has a Twitter account and he's not afraid to use it well of

00:47
course he doesn't do that himself actually he doesn't personally sit there
at the computer and send tweets and certainly not in English rather what
happens is that these tweets are sent by someone designated and authorized for
that purpose I guess it's a whole team since they do that in many different
languages and what they do is they just pick something from what Francis has
said recently or even in the more distant past and then they they tweet
that out and it shows up as the you know tweet from the Pope and so that's how
that works okay it's not actually him tweeting but whatever is tweeted is
something that he actually said case in point
on November 4th the frank ster tweeted this quote Sunday Mass is at the heart
of the church's life they are we encounter the risen Lord we listen to his word

00:48
we are nourished at his table and thus we become Church unquote yeah we become
Church we sing a new church into being right like that awful novus ordo him
wait where is it [Music] so Francis says that at Sunday Mass we
encounter the risen Lord we listen to his word and we are nourished at his
table now notice that there is nothing here that a Protestant wouldn't say
about his own church service at least when it includes some kind of communion
right it's a totally Protestant understanding of what Mass is which they
usually call the Lord's Supper notice also that what is totally absent from

00:49
Francis tweet is any inkling that the Holy Mass is a sacrifice and not just a
sacrifice of Thanksgiving and adoration but a sacrifice of propitiation that is
offered to the Most Holy Trinity that is completely gone in fact everything he
says in that tweet has to do with what we receive when the fact of the matter
is that above all the Catholic Mass is about us giving to God that's why you
have to go to Sunday Mass to begin with that's why it's an obligation and that's
why you have to go to Mass even if you can't or don't want to receive Holy
Communion you see the traditional Catholic catechism teaches that Holy
Mass is offered for four principal reasons number one to adore God number
two to thank God number three to make reparation for sin to God and number

00:50
four to petition God now all of these things are things that we give to God we
give him our adoration our thanks our atonement sacrifice which is Christ and
we give him our petitions and yet in the
Novus Ordo sect almost all that has ever
talked about is the mass as us receiving something from God now of course we do
also receive things from God at Mass such as graces and blessings and indeed
if we communicate his very body blood soul and divinity but that
is a consequence of assisting at mass it is not the reason for it at least not
the primary reason remember what the Council of Trent defined against the
Protestants quote if anyone says that in the mass a true and real sacrifice is
not offered to God or that the act of offering is nothing else than Christ

00:51
being given to us to eat let him be anathema unquote
that's den zinger 9:48 in the Novus Ordo the talk is always about mass as a meal
it's always a meal a supper and so forth even many of those who still believe in
the real presence think the mass is a meal it is not holy mass is a sacrifice
not a meal Holy Communion is a meal if you will but the mass is not and the
only one who is required to receive holy communion at Mass is the priests
distribution of communion to the people is not really part of the mass actually
it is inserted into the mass and is in itself optional it does not pertain to
what is necessary for there to be a mass so Francis totally distorts what the
Catholic Mass is and why it has offered but then again he's speaking of course

00:52
of the Novus Ordo mass not the traditional Roman Catholic Mass so let
that be another clue to you okay the Novus Ordo worship services I like to
call it is essentially different from the Roman Catholic Mass it is not
sacrifice but a meal the Novus Ordo is it has no offer Tory but only a
presentation of the gifts it has no offertory prayer but only a Jewish table
blessing it has no Canon but only a Eucharistic prayer it has no
consecration but only an institution narrative it doesn't even have a priest
but only a presider folks if you're still attending the new Mass
you have got to stop and get the heck out of there not only is the new mass
invalid even if it were valid you cannot go there because it's not the true

00:53
worship of the Catholic Church it's a masonic modernist protestant service
offered by a false church in union with a false Pope so you have no business
being there and God is most certainly not honored by your assistance at it
quite the contrary I forgot who it was but someone once
aptly remarked that the Novus Ordo Mass is the New Testament version of the
sacrifice of Cain alright what else have
we recently heard from the jorge's mouth one more one more from the frank ster
here on September 18th his wickedness and his daily sermon did it again he
again said as he had done before years ago that Christ's Authority came from
the people from being close to the people here is what Vatican News
reported quote what gave Jesus authority

00:54
Pope Francis explained was that he spent most of his time on the road
touching embracing listening and looking at the people in the eye he was near
them the Pope said this is what gave him authority unquote now that is demonic
that is a complete reversal of the truth that is straight from hell it's like
authority from below you know like God's authority is
dependent on being recognized by the people
this is modernism on steroids obviously the truth is that Christ's Authority
came not from below but from above directly from his Heavenly Father with
whom he is one and to whom he is equal quote for he received from God the
Father honor and glory this voice coming down to him from the excellent glory
this is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased hear you him unquote

00:55
that's a second Peter 1:17 other relevant scripture passages here
are John 10:30 where Christ says I and the father are one
and John 823 where our Blessed Lord says you are from beneath
I am from above Christ received his authority from the people unbelievable
Francis is a demon but no one cares no one cares not a single voice at his
daily Santa Marta sessions stands up and
denounces him or at least walks out okay at least not that we've heard about not
one and don't wait for any of these normal sorta Talking Heads to be
outraged about it this topic is not intriguing enough you see it's not about
human sexuality not about life issues not about who gets to receive Holy
Communion this is just you know damnable blasphemy it's just a direct attack on

00:56
Christ himself in terms of gravity blasphemy is even worse than heresy and
Francis has been blaspheming God left and right and our topical page on
Francis which we're gonna link in the show notes has all the information all
the links you need to see how much blasphemy this man has committed in the
past few years he's made jokes about the Trinity he said Christ made himself the
devil and and so forth and and that's why we call him his wickedness instead
of his holiness see these these little epithets and monikers we use here
they're all rooted in reality they're not just simply gratuitous insults okay
they're all justified alright ladies and gentlemen there is so much more I have
here to talk about that there's just no way I could fit it all into one show and

00:57
I don't think you'd want a five and a half hour show at a time so um let's do
this I know it's probably not going to happen but I will try as hard as I can
to put out another full-length trap cast before the end of the year
how's that I can't guarantee it because you just never know what happens for all
I know Francis might decide to set the Vatican on fire tonight and then we'll
be covering that but I'll try okay see whatever time is spent doing one thing
is time away from doing something else and so it's very difficult to juggle it
all all right before we go I have a book recommendation to make and I don't want
let you go without it so here we go to set of ikana Sleiman mr. Dylan fellows
and mr. Christopher Conlon have published a phenomenal little work
called contra Crawford a defense of baptism of desire and periodic

00:58
countenance as the title suggests it's a work defending the traditional Catholic
teaching on baptism of desire and baptism of blood as well as an issue
relevant to the married and it does so in a way that is easy to follow and that
makes clear at the outset what is really
at the root of the errors that are being refuted here which is a false view of
how the Catholic Church teaches the faithful specifically through her
ordinary Magisterium you see a lot of people seem to think that the Catholic
Church teaches the faithful directly by means of infallible statements and
conciliar pronouncements and then anything less than that is just a bunch
of opinions that have value only insofar as they don't contradict the infallible
teachings which they nevertheless totally can and that's just a completely

00:59
crazy and absurd view of the church's Magisterium and so the authors tackle
that issue right up front and best of all the book is enjoyable and easy to
read okay it's not dry it's not boring it's not tedious to go through and it's
available in electronic format for free so you can just download it as a PDF
file and it is also available as a paperback
and would probably make a pretty nice Christmas gift for some people you know
where to find the link that's right in the show notes for this episode trap
cast number 23 man so much more to talk about like sweet Paul the sixth for
example yeah you heard about that the semi treads are trying their darndest to
get around it but we won't let them it'll have to wait till next time though

01:00
please keep us in your prayers and God bless you [Music] [Applause] [Music]
