"Ratzinger the Traditionalist" Update:
Denouncing those who oppose Vatican II: "We must be on guard against minimizing these movements. Without a doubt, they represent a sectarian zealotry that is the antithesis of Catholicity. We cannot resist them to firmly."
(Joseph Ratzinger, Principles of Catholic Theology, Ignatius Press, 1987, pp. 389-90; bold print added;
German original: Katholische Prinzipienlehre, 1982)

Reality Check: The Scary Truth about the Charismatic Movement

Just a Reminder:
"If ever at any time it shall appear that any Bishop . . . or any Cardinal of the . . . Roman Church, . . . or even the Roman Pontiff, prior to his promotion or his elevation as Cardinal or Roman Pontiff, has deviated from the Catholic Faith or fallen into some heresy: (i) the promotion or elevation, even if it shall have been uncontested and by the unanimous assent of all the Cardinals, shall be null, void and worthless..."
--Pope Paul IV, Cum Ex Apostolatus Officio, March 15, 1559

New Rites, New Vestments at Benedict's Installation

The Error that Just Keeps on Going:
"Irreversible" - Benedict XVI on Ecumenism

Lutheran Likes What He Sees in Benedict XVI

Archlayman of Canterbury is pleased, too

Benedict XVI wants to be "Missionary Pope" - "like John Paul II"
We recommend starting by preaching that all men have to become Catholics to be saved, as the Church has taught for 2,000 years...

Supposedly there is a "Holy Mass" going on here somewhere....

Isn't Ecumenism Great?
In 1982 book, "Cardinal" Ratzinger writes that Catholics search for essence of true Christianity and don't want dissolution of Protestantism but hope Protestants will be strengthened in their Confessions: View Picture Proof here

German original: Katholische Prinzipienlehre, 1982)

Reality Check: Pope Pius XI Condemns Ecumenism

Vatican Condemns Spain "Gay Marriage" Bill
Isn't that interesting. Who made sure that Spain would no longer be a Catholic country in the first place? Wasn't that the Novus Ordo Vatican?

Ratzinger vs. the New Mass?
Now he can put his money where his mouth is -- wait, so far, as Benedict XVI, he has only celebrated the New Mass, that "banal on-the-spot product".

Who will be the new Prefect of the Congregation for the Destruction of the Faith?

Horror of horrors, a man who believes his religion to be true and therefore superior!

News Story Here

Fr. Joseph Ratzinger Claiming Title
"POPE BENEDICT XVI"

JAW-DROP:
The Remnant Reports Internal Vatican Sources confirm John Paul II died April 1, not April 2; Date was Changed due to John Paul's Great Agony and to Fake Episcopal Appointments
Could this be related? "At that time Alcimus was struck: and his works were hindered, and his mouth was stopped, and he was taken with a palsy, so that he could no more speak a word, nor give order concerning his house. And Alcimus died at that time in great torment." (1 Machabees 9:55-56)
(Who was Alcimus and why could this be significant?)

and Evangelical Protestant Leaders . . . in a "Catholic" cathedral!

Only in the Novus Ordo:
Freemasons Mourn Death of John Paul II
This says it all, thank you -- the Freemasons are the Archenemies of the Catholic Church

WE HAVE BEEN WARNED:
"Indeed, the true friends of the people are neither revolutionaries, nor innovators: they are traditionalists."
--Pope St. Pius X, "Our Apostolic Mandate" condeming Sillonism, 1910

Finally, the Solution:
SONG AND DANCE!

Sillonism in Action:
"No Peace without Peace of World Religions"

Last time we checked, the only true Peace was the Peace of Christ....

Ecumenism in Action
Reality Check:
Pope Pius XI: Some men have "a hope that the nations, although they differ among themselves in certain religious matters, will without much difficulty come to agree as brethren in professing certain doctrines, which form as it were a common basis of the spiritual life. For which reason conventions, meetings and addresses are frequently arranged by these persons . . . Certainly such attempts can nowise be approved by Catholics, founded as they are on that false opinion which considers all religions to be more or less good and praiseworthy, since they all in different ways manifest and signify that sense which is inborn in us all. . . ." (Encyclical Mortalium Animos on Ecumenism, 1928)

Ratzinger -- or Lustiger?

A Cardinal Upgrade

Kasper the Friendly Apostate:

Modernist Apostate "Cardinal" Kasper Silently Emerging as "Papal" Candidate?

Kasper Fact Check:
--he believes an Ecumenical Council must include Schismatics/Heretics to be truly Ecumenical
--he believes the Resurrection of Christ is not verifiable historical fact

--he believes Catholic dogma can be one-sided, dumb, bossy

Reality Check:
"Of course, the election of a heretic, schismatic, or female [as Pope] would be null and void." --1914 Catholic Encyclopedia, s.v. "Papal Elections"

And now the $100,000 Question:
Who made Kasper a "Cardinal" in 2001?

But of course:
"Cardinal" Cormac Murphy-O'Connor apologized to Prince Charles and Camilla Parker-Bowles about Postponement of their (invalid) "Wedding" due to Funeral of John Paul II:
"As Vespers ended, he peeled himself off from the final procession and hurried to the West Door to greet the Prince and Mrs Parker Bowles and say how sorry he was that their wedding plans had been disrupted."

Never mind the "marriage" isn't valid but adulterous. St. Thomas More got his head cut off for refusing to acknowledge an invalid wedding. Then again, St. Thomas More didn't have the "New Springtime" yet...

See the "Flying Saucers" they will use to collect Votes during Conclave

Apostate Fr. Cantalamessa chosen to Exhort Conclave

He is the preacher who said that false religions "are not merely tolerated by God ... but positively willed by Him as an expression of the inexhaustible richness of His grace and His will for everyone to be saved."
That is Apostasy!
(And this man is the "preacher of the Papal Household"!)

John Paul II's Personal Physician Reveals:
He "passed away slowly, with pain and suffering . . . [he] could not utter a single word before passing away. Just as happened in the last days, he could not speak; he was forced to silence."
Interesting Parallel: "At that time Alcimus was struck: and his works were hindered, and his mouth was stopped, and he was taken with a palsy, so that he could no more speak a word, nor give order concerning his house. And Alcimus died at that time in great torment." (1 Machabees 9:55-56)
(Who was Alcimus and why could this be significant?)

Interesting Facts:
"During a vacancy of the Apostolic See, neither the Church nor the Council can contravene the provisions already laid down to determine the valid mode of election (Cardinal Cajetan, O.P., in De Comparata, cap.xiii, no. 202). However, in case of permission (for example if the Pope has provided nothing against it), or in case of ambiguity (for example, if it is unknown who the true Cardinals are or who the true Pope is, as was the case at the time of the Great Schism), the power ’of applying the Papacy to such and such a person’ devolves on the universal Church, the Church of God (ibid., no. 204)."
--Msgr. Charles Journet, The Church of the Incarnate Word
