Beheading Ecumenism


Right in the middle of America's heartland, Oklahoma, we witnessed a recent convert to Islam behead a 54 year-old woman with whom he used to work. According to one news agency:

 ''Alton Nolen, ...aka Jah'Keem Yisrael, after attempting to convert a fellow female worker at Vaughn Foods, and after being fired--beheaded that female co-worker followed by attempting to murder and behead another woman co-worker. The CEO of Vaughn Foods shot Yisrael before he encored his grisly beheading act.

One look at Yisrael's Facebook page features a "Who's Who" adulation of international terrorists from al Qaeda to ICIS. He highlighted one headless victim on his Facebook page with praise to Allah. According to Islam anyone who disagrees with that religion deserves to lose his or her head and hands''

The True Church of Christ has always fought against ''...the darkness of idolatry and of Islamism...'' as the Consecration prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus taught until the defection of the hierarchy. Not only did Antipope John XXIII (now ''St.'') remove that phrase from the prayer, the heretical document Nostra Aetate had this to say:

"3. The Church regards with esteem also the Moslems. They adore the one God, living and subsisting in Himself; merciful and all- powerful, the Creator of heaven and earth, who has spoken to men; they take pains to submit wholeheartedly to even His inscrutable decrees, just as Abraham, with whom the faith of Islam takes pleasure in linking itself, submitted to God. Though they do not acknowledge Jesus as God, they revere Him as a prophet. They also honor Mary, His virgin Mother; at times they even call on her with devotion. In addition, they await the day of judgment when God will render their desserts to all those who have been raised up from the dead. Finally, they value the moral life and worship God especially through prayer, almsgiving and fasting.

Since in the course of centuries not a few quarrels and hostilities have arisen between Christians and Moslems, this sacred synod urges all to forget the past and to work sincerely for mutual understanding and to preserve as well as to promote together for the benefit of all mankind social justice and moral welfare, as well as peace and freedom"

  There is no peace and freedom apart from the King of Peace, Jesus Christ, and His One True Church. The Modernist Vatican II sect rejects this premise. Antipope Francis takes it even further in his "encyclical" Evangelii Gaudium :

"253. In order to sustain dialogue with Islam, suitable training is essential for all involved, not only so that they can be solidly and joyfully grounded in their own identity, but so that they can also acknowledge the values of others, appreciate the concerns underlying their demands and shed light on shared beliefs. We Christians should embrace with affection and respect Muslim immigrants to our countries in the same way that we hope and ask to be received and respected in countries of Islamic tradition. I ask and I humbly entreat those countries to grant Christians freedom to worship and to practice their faith, in light of the freedom which followers of Islam enjoy in Western countries! Faced with disconcerting episodes of violent fundamentalism, our respect for true followers of Islam should lead us to avoid hateful generalisations, for authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Koran are opposed to every form of violence (Emphasis mine)."

    Frankie would need to explain away the expert testimony of  Imran Ahsan Khan Nyazee, Assistant Professor on the Faculty of Shari’ah and Law of the International Islamic University in Islamabad. In his 1994 book The Methodology of Ijtihad, he quotes the twelfth century Maliki jurist Ibn Rushd: “Muslim jurists agreed that the purpose of fighting with the People of the Book…is one of two things: it is either their conversion to Islam or the payment of jizyah.” Nyazee concludes: “This leaves no doubt that the primary goal of the Muslim community, in the eyes of its jurists, is to spread the word of Allah through jihad, and the option of poll-tax [jizya] is to be exercised only after subjugation” of non-Muslims.

 Furthermore, I'd like to see his exegesis on texts, such as the following, from the Koran:

4:89: “They wish that you should disbelieve as they disbelieve, and then you would be equal; therefore take not to yourselves friends of them, until they emigrate in the way of Allah; then, if they turn their backs, take them, and slay them wherever you find them; take not to yourselves any one of them as friend or helper.”

 The Vatican II sect refuses to see the fact that Islam is a false religion, a violent and Satanic creed, that brings terrorism to the world on behalf of their false god "Allah." They have softened the stance of formerly Catholic nations (and the world at large) against it in the name of heretical ecumenism. Islam breeds evil, and we have a decapitated woman right here in Oklahoma as the latest in an unending series of proof.

 As I once remarked; perhaps when the Grand Imam of the Islamic Republic of Italy starts issuing fatwas from the erstwhile Vatican City, the world will see the evil of Islam (and the ecumenism that made its victory possible) when it will then be too late. King St. Louis IX, Victor over the Saracens, how the world needs your prayers and protection as never before.

Be Moral (But Only In Moderation)



 I've written before about the Latin aphorism "In medio stat veritas," i.e. "In the middle is the truth." Many times problems arise from people clinging to one extreme position or the other, when the Truth is "in the middle." A case in point would be the Feeneyites (no Baptism of Desire) and the universalists ( virtually everyone gets Baptism of Desire). However, in our postmodern age of apostasy, the world will often paint the Truth as an "extreme" and only some politically correct version of "faith" and/or "morals" will be lauded as "moderate and reasonable," when in fact it is neither.

 Consider, if you will, how moral outrage is often expressed by the world in response to the acts of those overpaid, steroid-using men we call "professional athletes." Football player Ray Rice hits his wife and for days we hear moralizing about spousal abuse. Don't get me wrong, hitting your wife is wrong, but I've heard commentators speak of this incident as something worthy of capital punishment. "It's never permissible to hit a woman," one so-called "conservative commentator" intoned. Really? It's NEVER permissible? If a female drug addict comes up to me with a knife trying to stab me and take my money, I have no moral authority to hit her and save my life? The feminist crowd has made hitting a woman a moral outrage, no matter what the circumstances and you'd better agree with the PC crowd or be prepared to get treated as a pariah.

 In 2009,  former football player Steve McNair, a married father of four children, was found dead, along with his 20 year old mistress Jenny Kazemi. Kazemi had shot McNair dead, and then turned the gun on herself, because she was distraught that McNair apparently told her he would not leave his wife to marry her, contrary to what he had earlier led her to believe. Sportswriter Jason Whitlock criticized McNair not because he was having an affair, but because he spent so much time chasing a 20 year old waitress, he wasn't spending enough time with his children. Whitlock didn't want to condemn adultery because he didn't want to sound like "some sanctimonious moralizer." I bet it never occurred to Mr. Whitlock (or the vast majority of his readers) that in condemning being a lousy father and refusing to denounce adultery, he was, ipso facto, moralizing. Neglect of children is bad. Cheating on your spouse is OK. Hitting a woman is never permitted, even if your own life is at risk. These are the PC ethics of our postmodern age where what's moral is decided by what the "herd" thinks is chic to be frowned upon. In every other area, any absolute condemnation (usually involving sexual ethics) is considered "extreme."

 In the days before the Great Apostasy, there would have been a true pope and Magisterium to speak out on such issues and serve as our moral compass to Heaven. Now, the Vatican II sect fits right in with the world. Consider how the media is gushing over Antipope Francis' appointment of Mr. Blase Cupich as the new "archbishop" of Chicago because he is a "moderate." Why is he labeled a moderate you ask? According to the AP newswire:

" Bishop Blase Cupich has spoken out against same-sex marriage and against conservative hostility toward gay rights advocates. He has opposed abortion, while urging parishioners and priests to have patience, not disdain, for those who disagree. And he has criticized fellow U.S. bishops who threatened to shut down religious charities instead of pursuing a compromise with the White House over health care policies that go against Catholic teaching"

 Seems "reasonable" to those of the world and the followers of Vatican II. However, consider for a moment that Catholic teaching holds that abortion is murder, and homosexuality is unnatural and perverse. These same Modernists in the Vatican II sect condemn Pope Pius XII for his alleged lack of standing up against the Nazis. Their so-called "saint," John Paul II apologized for the inactivity and silence of many Catholics during the Holocaust on March 16, 1998. The Holocaust was wrong and must be actively opposed by Catholics because it was the taking of innocent human life. But, wait a minute, isn't abortion also the taking of innocent life? Isn't pedophilia, so rampant among the Vatican II clergy also unnatural vice? Let's see how the "moderate stance" of Cupich would read in the newswire of 1933 Germany:


" Bishop Blase Cupich has spoken out against pedophilia and against conservative hostility towards pedophilia-rights advocates. He has opposed the Holocaust, while urging parishioners and priests to have patience, not disdain, for those Nazis who disagree. And he has criticized fellow German bishops who threatened to shut down religious charities instead of pursuing a compromise with the Third Reich over the  health care policies of Dr. Mengele that go against Catholic teaching."

Still sound reasonable and moderate to you? Cupich will do all he can to advance the complete collapse of morals under the guise of avoiding "extremism." Their concept of moderation is what's really extreme.

Marrying The Culture of Perversity


 It has been widely reported that Antipope Francis will marry "cohabiting couples" (read: "people shacking up and living in sin"). Yes, people living in sin and giving public scandal should get married, but only after they separate and live chastely until the wedding. This recognizes the sacredness of the marital act. Frankie wants to be "welcoming," i.e. "come on in and we don't mind sin." The Vatican II sect apologists are attempting to spin it as an act of "mercy" and recognition that "no one is perfect." True mercy is fraternal correction, and while fully admitting that none but Christ and His Mother are perfect, we must nevertheless heed Our Lord's admonition to "Be thou therefore perfect, as also thy heavenly Father is perfect."                   (See St. Matthew 5:48)

 What I have not seen mentioned, is how the Antipope's actions once more try to conform Christ to the world and not vice-versa. He is implicitly giving his blessing to the heathen culture which degrades the marital act, and dignifies the cheapening of sex. Look no farther than pop culture to see how desensitized we've become to sexual sin. The world has instilled in people the "pleasure" of indulging in the forbidden without remorse, while appealing to Man's sinful nature. These ultimately lead to a perverse and deranged bondage that is contaminating society at large.

Hollywood is completely obsessed with sex. Even what used to be labeled as family entertainment is not safe. The animated film, The Road to El Dorado, featured the voice of actress Rosie Perez. When she finally saw her character, with a body far beyond that of a Playboy playmate, she was dumbfounded and recalled:

"I was surprised when I saw her. I even told [Dream Works partner] Jeffrey [Katzenberg], "Are you sure this is family programming?"

When filmmakers Rachel and Barak Goodman visited an Atlanta suburb to look into a surprising outbreak of syphilis among 13-17 year olds, they found that one of their main activities involved watching the Playboy Channel, then copying whatever they saw on the screen. Titling their documentary, The Last Children of Rockdale County, the film details the influence television had on the entire town of Rockdale and the carnage of diseases that ruled the day. How bad does shacking up seem in comparison to this vile situation? 

Actress Sharon Stone says she's "studied a myriad of religious philosophies, even Scientology. Ultimately I've come to the conclusion that I'm a Taoist Buddhist who believes in God." She takes her Eastern ideologies seriously. When she wanted to get pregnant, she performed an African fertility dance and sprinkled clover flowers and raspberry leaves on her bed. This was to no avail, yet when she finally adopted a boy, she named him Roan Joseph Bronstein - his first name is Celtic for seal, a magical animal in that mythology. She has been quoted as saying, "I don't believe in sex as sin, or sin in general," and it's not surprising since she has portrayed a lesbian murderer in the film Basic Instinct. 

Actress Michelle Pheiffer is on record as stating: "Fidelity is…not that important. Traditional marriage is very outdated. I don't think people should live together the rest of their lives suppressing frustrations." Yes, and that twisted idea goes along perfectly with studies that show "cohabiting couples" having a much higher divorce rate than those who do not live together prior to marriage since they have no shame and seek not to suppress sin ("frustrations"), even for a short time as penance before marriage.

 The Modernist Antipope Francis strikes again with more damage to Faith and Morals. Maybe they can film the event and call it Sex and The Eternal City.

Luther's Triumph



“Brothers and sisters,Luther’s protest is over. Is yours?” So remarked an Anglican "bishop" at a meeting of Kenneth Copeland Ministries, a Protestant sect. Why is Luther's protest over? He is victorious over the counterfeit "Catholicism" of the Vatican II sect. Copeland himself remarked, "Heaven is thrilled over this…You know what is so thrilling to me? When we went into the ministry 47 years ago,this was impossible." The impossibility being spoken of was the Protestant "bishop's" wife converting to "Catholicism" because she realized she could be "Catholic, and Charismatic, and Evangelical, and Pentecostal, and it was absolutely accepted in the Catholic(sic) Church." Yes, in 1967, the nascent Vatican II sect was not yet ready for the "ecumenical apostasy" on the scale which it has reached today.

 "Pope" Francis should head a new UN-style “Organisation of United Religions”, or “United Religions”, to “combat violence in God’s name”, said former Israeli president, Shimon Peres this past week. The Vatican II sect is the perfect outfit for such a blasphemous endeavor. People may protest that "combating violence in God's Name" is a good thing. In fact, it's an evil worse than the violence. Thinking that you can come to God on your own terms apart from His One True Church is madness. Without the Catholic Faith it is impossible to please God, as the Council of Trent taught. Yet Antipope Francis hates the True Faith. He has proclaimed: "In this, we feel close even to all those men and women who, whilst not recognizing themselves belonging to any religious tradition, feel themselves nevertheless to be in search of truth, goodness and beauty, this truth, goodness and beauty of God, and who are our precious allies in efforts to defend the dignity of man, in building a peaceful coexistence among peoples and in guarding Creation carefully." (Emphasis mine). Got that? Your religious "tradition" doesn't matter.


 As Pope Pius XI taught in his great encyclical letter Mortalium Animos (1928): "All Christians, they add, should be as "one": for then they would be much more powerful in driving out the pest of irreligion, which like a serpent daily creeps further and becomes more widely spread, and prepares to rob the Gospel of its strength. ... in reality beneath these enticing words and blandishments lies hid a most grave error, by which the foundations of the Catholic faith are completely destroyed....authors who favor this view are accustomed, times almost without number, to bring forward these words of Christ: "That they all may be one.... And there shall be one fold and one shepherd," with this signification however: that Christ Jesus merely expressed a desire and prayer, which still lacks its fulfillment. For they are of the opinion that the unity of faith and government, which is a note of the one true Church of Christ, has hardly up to the present time existed, and does not today exist....it is clear that the Apostolic See cannot on any terms take part in their assemblies, nor is it anyway lawful for Catholics either to support or to work for such enterprises; for if they do so they will be giving countenance to a false Christianity, quite alien to the one Church of Christ. Shall We suffer, what would indeed be iniquitous, the truth, and a truth divinely revealed, to be made a subject for compromise?

 That was a true Pope's condemnation of ecumenism involving those who acknowledge Christ. Francis goes further by wanting ANY religious tradition or even NO religious tradition (atheists) to be in "communion" with his sect. Since, according to him, we all get to Heaven, it makes sense. (All except those of us in the One True Church go to Heaven!) If you think I exaggerate, the antipope said:

"In ideologies there is not Jesus: in his tenderness, his love, his meekness. And ideologies are rigid, always. Of every sign: rigid. And when a Christian becomes a disciple of the ideology, he has lost the faith: he is no longer a disciple of Jesus, he is a disciple of this attitude of thought… For this reason Jesus said to them: ‘You have taken away the key of knowledge.’ The knowledge of Jesus is transformed into an ideological and also moralistic knowledge, because these close the door with many requirements. The faith becomes ideology and ideology frightens, ideology chases away the people, distances, distances the people and distances of the Church of the people. But it is a serious illness, this of ideological Christians. It is an illness, but it is not new, eh?" To believe in the Truth ("ideology") makes you "ill" and not a true Christian!

  In 1517, the apostate priest Martin Luther, the founder of the false Protestant sects, claimed the authority of each individual to interpret the Scripture. Almost 500 years later, his ideological successor, the Modernist Jorge Bergoglio, proclaims that everyone has the right to believe anything or nothing. Contradictory propositions can all be reconciled "for the good of humanity," at the expense of right reason. It's going from Protestantism to Modernism to atheism, as our culture is riddled with moral and religious relativism which breeds indifference (at best) or unbelief (at worst). The "UN of Religions" is, by definition, "UN-Catholic." Pray that you may be spared from the evil that might be coming soon.

Covering All Bases


Just when you think it can't possibly get any more sacrilegious and downright crazy, the Vatican II sect is ready to prove you wrong. According to a report in the Washington Post:

"Fans who stream into the Navy Yard district before Nats (a professional baseball team--Introibo) games are now greeted with increasingly varied entertainment choices, from Yards Park for fresh air and views of the Anacostia River to the Fairgrounds for frat-rock music and adult refreshments to a variety of neighborhood restaurants and taverns, with more to come.

On Sunday afternoons this summer, they've had another option: a Catholic church service. Or, as the local St. Vincent de Paul church calls it, “Nats Mass.”

“For me, it was kind of a no-brainer,” said Rev. Andrew Royals, 34, a Montgomery County native who became the pastor at the South Capitol Street church about two years ago. “On game days we had thousands of people walking right in front of our church. I was like, ‘Well, I’m sure some of these people would like to go to church.’…And we thought there’s no reason people can’t do both.”


And thus, Nats Mass (sic) was launched in May, a noon service that runs about 40 or 45 minutes, getting attendees out the door in plenty of time for a 1:35 first pitch."

 According to the August 24th article, the church is breaking records, with fans attending in their teams baseball attire. "There are other things that make Nats Mass unique. Royals tries to keep the service a tad briefer than normal, so anxious fans don’t get distracted by the approaching gametime. And he will include references to baseball or to the Washington nine in his homilies – 'it makes it easy when you know that everyone has something in common even beyond our religion,' he said. Baseball 'kind of gives you an extra set of things that we can all relate to.'"

 To put things in perspective, the Vatican II sect feels that something more than the True Faith is necessary to have in common; the cult of idolizing overpaid and (in most cases) steroid-using athletes, whose only contribution to society is their own self-aggrandizement.  Moreover, they no longer have the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass--the Unbloody Sacrifice of the Cross---but have replaced it with a Modernist worship service that is so banal, that they need to get people to attend by dressing like slobs and having "theological discussions" regarding a profane sport to keep their attention.

 There is nothing wrong with playing in sports or watching them. (I do neither, but I'm a jiu-jitsu expert with 28 years professional training and an avid runner putting in approx. 100 miles a month. This I do for self-defense--which I also teach one night a week-- and for personal health). However, the CULT of sports is pervasive in our culture, and the Vatican II sect panders to it.

 The First Commandment does not say, "Thou shalt not be an atheist," but rather, "Thou shalt not have false gods before Me." Humanity is incurably God-centered. Whatever you put ahead of God, be it money, fame, drugs/alcohol, power, sex, your career, sports, or anything else, that becomes the false god to whom you pay homage. Ironically, the word "fan" is short for "fanatic," a word typically reserved for the religious, for whom the term is used pejoratively. For sports, the world sees the label as a badge of honor.

 Equally ironic, I think, is that Mr. Royals and his fellow Vatican II sect members are not getting their people to be fans of the only One Whom matters: Jesus Christ. Instead of having them come dressed up with jerseys of their false sports idols, why not have them dress reverently for Christ? Have them wear a Crucifix, and a medal of a saint; a real hero. They are sacramentals that can bring graces to their souls.

Adult and children’s minds are occupied, from early morning to late at night, as to what team is going to win. Their interest for these sports far exceeds their interest for their eternal soul's welfare. It is their daily subject, ask the teenager. With very few exceptions, they are better acquainted with the names of the various players than with the basic Truths of Faith. How about "homilies" (the former sermon) dedicated to preaching on Church Teaching?

People have been in riots when their team loses a big game. Fist fights break out if someone slights a player from the favorite team of another person. Why not encourage people to get outraged over abortuaries that murder innocent children, and fight over the blasphemies that the media turns out on a daily basis against Christ and basic Christian values?

 This will not happen because the Vatican II sect is NOT the Roman Catholic Church. It is up to us-- Traditionalists-- to become "fanatics" for what's left of Christ's One True Church and fight the good fight of the True Faith. St. Paul does make one sports analogy when under Divine Inspiration, he writes, "Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize."      (See 1 Corinthians 9:24).

 For the Vatican II sect, it's the bottom of the ninth, bases loaded, and the mighty Francis and his team of Modernists have struck out. Don't be stuck with these losers when Christ has had enough and tells them, "Game over."

Keep On Truckin' ?


 In an act of incredible audacity, the former "Cardinal-Archbishop" of Sydney, Australia, Mr. George Pell said the Vatican II sect was no more responsible for cases of child abuse carried out by church figures than a trucking company would be if it employed a driver who molested women. Those who were sexually abused by the Vatican II clergy reacted with righteous anger at his comments.

 He said, "It would not be appropriate, because it’s contrary to the policy, for the ownership, leadership of that company to be held responsible,” Pell told the Australian government's inquiry into sex abuse. “Similarly with the church and the head of any other organization. It is, I think, not appropriate for legal culpability to be foisted on the authority figure.”

 Mr. Pell is as ignorant of civil and international law as he is of Divine and Canon Law (not to mention general principles of Moral Theology). Under the English common law (adopted, so to speak, in the U.S. and Australia) there is the legal doctrine of respondeat superior, i.e., "let the master answer." This occurs when an employee, acting within the scope of his employment, commits a tort or criminal act against a third party. The injured party can bring legal action against BOTH the employee and the employer, who is held responsible by vicarious liability.

  Whether or not such vicarious liability will be applied, depends on a number of factors, the most important of which are:
1.Was the act committed within the time and space limits of the employment?

2. Was the offense incidental to, or of the same general nature as, the responsibilities the employee is authorized to perform?

3. Was the employee motivated to any degree to benefit the employer by committing the act? Did the employer take reasonable care to ensure the employee was fit for the job (e.g. criminal background check, no history of mental illness, etc)?

 Let's see how these apply to Mr. Bergoglio's sect. As to question #1, a priest is "on duty" 24/7, so the answer is yes. As to question #2, the molestations were incidental to the priest's duties (if Vatican II sect "priests" can be said to have any real "duties"). As to question #3, there can be said to be a mutual benefit of the sodomite perverts covering for one another--the so-called "gay mafia." Did the Vatican II sect take reasonable care to ensure the seminarian was fit for the job, the answer is a resounding "NO"! Forgetting the act of hiding these perverts AFTER their crimes are known, the sect has allowed men morally unfit for duty into their ranks.

 Beginning in 1970, the seminaries in the U.S. and countries around the world, lifted the ban on those men with "same sex attraction" (SSA). This practice of letting in perverts was implicitly and explicitly condone by the sect's bishops. In 2002, the year the pedophile scandal came to fore, former Bp. Thomas Gumbleton of Detroit wrote an article in America magazine defending the ordination of sodomites. Gumbleton would wear a miter with a cross, a rainbow (symbol of homosexual perversion), and a pink triangle (the symbol used in Nazi Germany to designate sodomites). Gumbleton's article, entitled "Yes, Gay Men Should Be Ordained," gave the following reasons for his conclusion:


  • The homosexual was created by God as such. Since God is responsible for making the person this way, it is a gift to be a homosexual. 
 My response: There is no definitive answer as to whether or not homosexuals are genetically determined, and even if they were it wouldn't matter. If alcoholism is determined to be genetic, will he tell the drunk that God is responsible for this so keep on drinking? 

  • Through the testimony of their suffering, God has chosen homosexuals to reveal something about Him that heterosexuals do not.
My response:  Reveal that "the wages of sin is death" perhaps? Those with bipolar disorder suffer too. Should they be ordained as well?

  • God has called many homosexual men to the priesthood and episcopate.
My response: And he knows this...how? God calls no one who is unfit to the priesthood. Least of all those who practice one of the Four Sins Crying To Heaven For Vengeance.

  • Homosexual priests have an exceptional ability to proclaim the truth.
My response: Unless the truth he is proclaiming is that "I'm disordered, and celibate," he has no special ability for proclaiming truth. This is a propositional statement devoid of any/all proof.

  • Homosexual priests have more compassion than many heterosexual priests.
My response: Another gratuitous assertion with nothing to back it up.

 To summarize, if a trucking company hired a driver who had a mental/moral disorder that made him violent towards women, and he raped someone, the company would certainly be on the hook! Add to that fiasco the hiding of the criminal once his acts are known, and the president of that company (and anyone else involved) should be locked up, and the key thrown away. 

 Mr. Pell, and the rest of the Vatican II sect, have not come to grips with the fact that "gay is NOT OK" and you SHOULD judge them unfit (hear that Jorge?). The judgement to which someday THEY will  be held liable, is neither civil nor criminal, but eternal---in the flames of Hell.

Reincarnation, Possession, And Suicide



On December 7, 1977, Eldon McCorkhill (age 33) and Linda Cummings (age 28) were having drinks at a bar in Redlands, California. Their conversation eventually came to the subject of life after death. Cummings said she was firmly convinced that reincarnation was true. A spirited debate ensued, as McCorkhill was not a believer in cycles of birth, death, and rebirth. They argued all the way back to McCorkhill's apartment; once there, he took out a loaded gun and handed it to Cummings, saying, "If you believe in this, let's see what you'll come back as." Linda Cummings took the gun, pointed it at her head, and without hesitation, pulled the trigger. (See San Francisco Examiner, December 8, 1977). Ideas have consequences.

 The True Church of Christ has always taught--along with the Apostle St. Paul---"(Just as)people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment" (See Hebrews 9:27). The popularity of reincarnation and Eastern Mysticism is rampant in the Vatican II sect, with many "priests" and loony "nuns" practicing yoga, un-Catholic forms of meditation, and "centering prayer," all of which is opposed to authentic Catholic teaching.

Earlier this year, Professor Deborah Raiees-Dana of John Brown University wrote an article for the student newspaper in which she stated "My story is too long and complex to explain fully, but I was saved while in elementary school, experimented with witchcraft in junior high, started drugs in high school and was deeply involved with the New Age—including yoga—during my college years. About 30 years ago I turned back to Jesus. About 20 years ago I began the process of being delivered from numerous demonic spirits."

The article titled "Rethink Yoga" by Raiees-Dana, who is described as “the tutoring coordinator for Student Support Services”, wrote, "This column is not a theological exegesis, but rather a heartfelt cry. I understand that yoga has become an accepted part of the American culture. The National Institute of Health promotes it vigorously and much of the Church has accepted it as harmless. I have to disagree.As I have been thinking of all the arguments and reasons why yoga is not as beneficial as we've been led to believe, it all keeps coming back to the fact that yoga has its roots in the worship of demonic Hindu gods.I believe that while yoga may offer some benefits, those benefits have hidden, demonic strings attached. I spoke to one of our chapel speakers years ago about this. He was a Dalit “untouchable” from India who had become a Christian. His view is that yoga is the beautiful face that the very ugly religion of Hinduism uses to sell itself to Americans." It further says: "There is more I have left unsaid than I have said."

The professor, while not Traditionalist, hit the nail on the head regarding Hinduism. It's "gods" are grotesque demons, and yoga type meditation opens the doorway to possession, (As expected, the PC crowd roundly denounced the professor-- and the nominally Christian University, rather than have someone write a rebuttal article---chose censorship by pulling her writing).

  At Vatican II, Nostra Aetate  section 2 states:

"Thus in Hinduism, men contemplate the divine mystery and express it through an unspent fruitfulness of myths and through searching philosophical inquiry. They seek release from the anguish of our human condition through ascetical practices or deep meditation or a loving, trusting flight toward God."
This is a false representation because it leads the Catholic to see Hindu mythology and philosophy as valid, as if they might effectively "search for" the "divine mystery," and as if Hindu asceticism and meditation bring about something similar to Christian asceticism. Add to this the doctrine of reincarnation, a particularly perverse idea. Reincarnation was explicitly condemned in the schema of the Dogmatic Constitution De Deposito Fidel Pure Custodiendo, which was elaborated during the preparatory phrase of the Council. Antipope John XXIII and the Modernists saw to it that it was rejected during the Council because of its paucity of "ecumenical" character.

 This past week, we saw another victim of reincarnation and possession. Actor and comedian Robin Williams committed suicide at age 63. Most people are probably unaware that the tormented man attributed his success to being "possessed." In his own words:

 " Yeah! Literally, it's like possession ‑ all of a sudden you're in, and because it's in front of a live audience, you just get this energy that just starts going…But there's also that thing ‑ it is possession. In the old days you'd be burned for it…But there is something empowering about it. I mean, it is a place where you are totally ‑ it is Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, where you really can become this other force. Maybe that's why I don't need to play evil characters [in movies], 'cause sometimes onstage you can cross that line and come back. Clubs are a weird kind of petri dish environment. I mean, that's where people can get as dark as they can in comedy ‑ in the name of comedy, be talking about outrageous stuff and somehow come out the other side. I mean, that's one place where you really want to push it” (Robin Williams, "Robin Williams,” by James Kaplan, US Weekly, January, 1999, p. 53). It was in Williams’ stand-up where he would go into his manic, stream-of-consciousness rants filled with vulgar language, perverse sexuality and the glorification of illicit drugs and drunkenness. Many people express shock after seeing Williams' stand-up, not knowing his act was so perverse.

In 1998, Williams starred in a movie entitled What Dreams May Come. Williams' character, Chris Nielson, dies in a car accident four years after losing his two children. In one scene, Neilson awakens to find himself in the afterlife, which is both beautiful and unexpected. In the afterlife he is reunited with his dog and at first confuses his surroundings for "dog heaven."

As he continues exploring the afterlife and coming to terms with his death, however, Nielson takes ownership of the situation. "Maybe I'm not in your heaven after all, girl," he says. "Maybe you're in mine." In an interview, Williams discussed the movie's ending in which (after getting his wife out of Hell for committing suicide!) Nielson and his wife choose to reincarnate and live out their lives together again. Williams said he favored an alternate ending that depicted reincarnation as a mandatory and natural cycle of life -- one which saves them from reliving their previous lives. He said, "There was a different ending that they shot that I felt was much more true to the story. It was about reincarnation, basically, that they were going to meet again. The movie ended with two babies being born simultaneously, one in Bombay and one in the United States, and they held them up, and then the screen went to black. I don't know if it's anywhere."

  Robin Williams, a man who made many people laugh, was crying on the inside. He had opened himself up to demonic forces years ago that lead to his stardom. It also led to the corruption of souls along the way with his perversity and glorification of the evil doctrine of reincarnation. The True Church wanted to issue a formal condemnation of this teaching, but the Vatican II sect was spawned and glamorized the demonic "gods" of Hinduism. Poor Mr. Williams was lead to the ultimate despair and took his life. Unlike his movie, there will be no dogs in Heaven, and no release from Hell for those who die without sanctifying grace. Only Christ and His One True Church can save us, so please get it right the first and only time we have on this Earth.
