As you read the link below, note the anti-doctrines of the antipope, in just this short letter, all of which he has proclaimed before:

1. The dignity of the human person is infinite (blasphemous and impossible, since the human person is not infinite)
2. The inversion of the Order of Charity as defined in the Magisterium and expounded by both Augustine and Aquinas
3. Regulation of immigration is a mortal sin (need I say more?)

It seems the gravy train might come to an end, and he is not happy about it.

CIAntipope needs to start trending.

(Today is the 12th anniversary of Pope Benedict’s ‘Declaratio’ which he read out in Latin to the astonished Consistory. What exactly did he ‘declare’? Quite obviously he was fleeing, probably under duress, but also quite obviously not fleeing, but remaining in a new way, still inside the Vatican, still in white, still addressed as His Holiness, still with Pope in his title, still intending to remain ‘papal’ in some way… for ten more years, until his death 31 Dec 2022. One cannot half-resign the Papacy; that is Substantial Error, and the law says you retain the whole thing. Myself and other laynothings have tried to point this out for many years now. Saint Bernadette, pray for us.-nvp)

Prayer to Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception

O most Holy Virgin, immaculate in body
and spirit, look kindly on me as I implore
your powerful intercession.

O most Holy Mother, receive my prayers
as I present them to God.
(state your intentions here)

O Mary, Mother of Jesus and our Mother,
you intercede for us with your Son.
O Mary conceived without sin,
pray for us who have recourse to thee.

Amen.

Sweet, sweet Saint Bernadette, pray for us. Happy feast to all!

Our Lady of Lourdes, Saint Bernadette, and God’s inscrutable ways

Originally posted on FEBRUARY 11, 2020

Happy feast!

167 years ago today, 11 Feb 1858, the Blessed Virgin made her first appearance to Bernadette in the grotto at Lourdes. Six weeks later, Our Lady would confirm to Bernadette that she was the Immaculate Conception, a fact that had been Dogmatically defined barely three years prior (8 Dec 1854 HERE).

Ah, sweet Bernadette. She was but 14 years old.

Laywoman.

Illiterate.

Dirt poor.

Yet chosen by God to receive this miraculous message and teach it to the world.

Most of the depictions, paintings, statues of this miracle are wrong. The picture I posted above is all wrong. Bernadette was so poor, her family lived in a one-room windowless cellar with a dirt floor. Her first encounter with Our Lady was during a hunt for firewood, trudging through mud, so she would have been wearing not just rags, which was all she owned, but the worst rags she had.

The other illusory image is that of the Blessed Virgin. She actually appeared as a 14 year old, same age as Bernadette, and even shorter than Bernadette’s diminutive 4’7″… which was caused by malnutrition. Mary was appearing at the age when she herself conceived… which aligns with her pronouncement of her own Immaculate Conception on the Feast of the Annunciation, Christ’s conception, which took place at the grotto on 25 March 1858.

When these depictions began appearing even within her own lifetime, especially the statuary, Bernadette was very upset with their inaccuracy. She also despised her celebrity, and once she entered the convent, wanted only to pray and offer penances. She was chronically sick. Mary had promised her suffering in this life, but happiness in the next. Suffering is a tool to attain holiness, and Mary was no stranger to suffering in her own lifetime. These things are meant as examples for us. Bernadette died 16 April 1879, and was raised to the altars on 8 December 1933. Her famous quote, upon reflecting on her own fate while in this world:

“What do you do with a broom when it is done being used? You put it behind a door; and that is what the Virgin has done with me.”

Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for us.

Saint Bernadette, pray for us.

“O the depth of the riches of the wisdom and of the knowledge of God! How incomprehensible are his judgments, and how unsearchable his ways! For who hath known the mind of the Lord? Or who hath been his counselor?” Romans 11:33-34

An Almost Insurmountable Evil: How Obama’s Deep State Defiled the Catholic Church and Executed the Wuhan Plandemic

(If the CRS CEO was making $680K a year, how much do you think the antipope and antichurch made? Yet still on the verge of going broke? That’s a LOT of cocaine. -nvp)

CV NEWS FEED // Catholic Relief Services (CRS) was the top recipient of funding from the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), Forbes reported Feb. 3.

According to Forbes, CRS, a nonprofit, received $4.6 billion from 2013 to 2022. Other top recipients include Chemonics International, a for-profit organization that received $4.5 billion; FHI 360, a nonprofit that received $3.8 billion; and Development Alternatives, a for-profit organization that received $3 billion.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio became the acting director of USAID Feb. 3, as CatholicVote previously reported. The decision came after the agency attempted to block the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from accessing its financial records.

CRS has been the subject of controversy in the past for supporting pro-abortion aid programs. As CatholicVote reported in 2023, the organization attempted to mislead senators by stating that African bishops were not opposed to an AIDS relief program that would promote abortion. Six African bishops, in fact, signed a letter organized by the conservative advocacy group The Heritage Foundation that opposed the Biden-era President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR).

America’s Catholic bishops are decrying the evils of human trafficking, while ignoring their own role in facilitating the dehumanizing practice…

One “hard conversation” that it seems the bishops have been avoiding, however, is that of their own role in facilitating the illegal immigration crisis at the southern border, and the ensuing human trafficking. Over the past four years, the number of unaccompanied migrant children who have gone missing at the border has tripled: of the roughly half a million children who crossed the border without a guardian, over 300,000 have gone missing…

It is worth noting that the Office on Human Trafficking in Persons, a division of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, has only reported the number of unaccompanied migrant children who have been found and are known to have been trafficked. There are thousands of children still missing, many of whom have likely been sold into sex slavery or forced into prostitution.

The Catholic bishops of the U.S. and their affiliate organizations have, unfortunately, helped facilitate this tragedy. More than that, they have profited from doing so. According to data compiled by the organization Corpus Christi for Unity and Peace, the USCCB and its affiliates were paid nearly $450 million to deal with unaccompanied migrant children, many of whom were either placed with unvetted adult sponsors or are still missing…

But the U.S. bishops and their “charitable” allies have done more than just deal with unaccompanied migrant children: they have encouraged, accelerated, and exacerbated the ongoing illegal immigration crisis overall. Records up to 2015 show that the USCCB and its affiliates netted roughly $2 billion in government funding for various immigrant and refugee “services,” including shuttling illegal immigrants deeper into the U.S. once across the border and equipping them with pre-paid cell phones and loaded debit cards. However, under the Biden administration, the USCCB was paid nearly $635 million and Catholic Charities was paid a staggering $1.7 billion for immigrant and refugee “services.”

Under the first Trump administration, the USCCB was paid less than $215 million from the federal government’s coffers and USCCB made less than $130 million. Is it any wonder then that Catholic bishops are so vehemently denouncing Trump’s second administration, and especially his immigration policy? The bishops have been denied their allowance…

(Don’t miss the part where she explains how proud she was to amputate her teen daughter’s breasts. I’m not sure if she bore this child or purchased her, but Cynthia and her sodomy partner deserve the millstone. -nvp)

From @charliekirk11: At a protest against Trump’s executive orders targeting child mutilation procedures on minors, Actress Cynthia Nixon reveals that:

-Her daughter is transgender

-Her niece is transgender

-Her best friend’s child is transgender

-Her daughter’s best friend is transgender

-Her life is filled with transgender people, “young and old, but especially young.” …

From The Thinking Housewife:

IT’S NOT enough to close down the Human Mutilation Clinics participating in the ugly con that a woman can be made into a man, or a man can be made into a woman.

The people in charge of, working in, and funding these places should be arrested, tried and convicted of fraud and assault.

As long as they walk free, the chances are high that these centers of “transgenderism” will be up and running again.

An actress and dangerous political agitator who says the kind things the celebrity Cynthia Nixon said in this speech in New York City this week should be arrested for endangering the welfare of the young and promoting medical fraud. She belongs in prison. Believe it or not, beautiful, wealthy and successful people can be the worst kinds of criminals.

Actors and actresses, especially successful celebrities, should never be asked for their opinions about anything important. Actors and actresses tend to be uniquely air-headed and often deranged. They spend their lives in mimicry, role playing and working as human clothes hangers, none of which confer wisdom. They typically have nothing inside their heads but the latest political fads that make their often viciously competitive lives seem virtuous. Nixon proves this point most vividly when she proudly boasts that her daughter has had her breasts amputated and is now pretending in her state of advanced mutilation that she is a man. Celebrities like Nixon — a member of the Marxist group Democratic Socialists of America — are blood-thirsty idols walking in the land of the living dead.

The mob that cries out in support of her is similar to that mob in Jerusalem long ago. “Crucify him! Crucify him!”

They are a pack of murderous dogs.
