Fr. Matthew Despard: Will the persecution by the Hierarchy result in his parents losing their home?

Fr. Matthew Despard

Fr. Matthew Despard, the Catholic priest who blew the whistle on the on-going homosexual "mafia" in the Catholic priesthood continues to suffer at the hands of the brutal hierarchy of Scotland. 

Unfortunately, Fr. Despard's attempts to expose the evil doers did not go well with the "men" who run the Catholic Church in Scotland. Fr. Despard's book, "Priesthood in Crisis", was greeted with derision, threats of legal action - instead of calm, meticulous rebuttal. 

Montfort, who has written on this blog on a number of occasions about Fr. Despard and the general spiritual crisis in Scotland, hails from Fr. Despard's Diocese of Motherwell,  Thus, what is happening to Fr. Despard and Scotland is of great interest to us. 

The latest news from the Diocese of Motherwell is that the sadistic persecution of Fr. Despard may now result in his parents ending up homeless. From the Motherwell TImes: 

Supporters of the priest say his parents, Dickie and Cathie, could be forced out of the North Motherwell home they have lived in for many years if the latest court action brought against him is successful. 

They are angry that Bishop Joseph Toal, Bishop of Motherwell, is due to visit St Bernadette’s Church, where the couple are well-respected parishioners, on Sunday, just a day before the legal action is raised at Hamilton Sheriff Court. 

Fr Despard was parish priest at St John Ogilvie’s in High Blantyre when he was suspended from duties in 2013. Last year he was forced to leave the parish house there after losing a court action brought by Motherwell Diocese. 

However, a church ruling that he had made damaging accusations against priests and lay people in his book was overturned by a court in Rome, and a support group is calling for his re-instatement as parish priest in High Blantyre. 

The latest court action is said to be to recover previous legal costs. The house in question, a former council property, is in Fr Despard’s name.

 

But the vile hounding of Fr. Despard only reflects one side of the homosexual crisis. On the one hand, those who expose the evil are driven out; while those engaging in the evil are pandered to and promoted.  This reality is reflected in the fact that a certain  Fr. Paul Milarvie was not expelled from the priesthood after being involved in a homosexual incident. No, this pervert was promoted into the Diocesan curia of Glasgow. Such is the concern with maintaining the sacredness of the priesthood by the evil malefactors who seemed to have seized control of the Church in that suffering nation. 

How can this go on? How can such men be so cruel and vicious? What drives their hatred, their lust for inflicting pain and harm on others? 

 Are they Satanists? Are they members of the occult? Do they belong to the Freemasons?

How is it that these men are not driven from their Sees, with their lackeys with them? 

Are they themselves homosexuals? Are they practicing this demonic vice? Are they being blackmailed? Are they covering up even greater crimes by homosexual clergy? 

Catholics need to know just who these people are. Questions, many question remain unanswered. 

Our Lord admonished us: judge everything by its fruits. The fruits of the Church in Scotland are bitter and poisonous.

Fr Matthew Despard: is the priest who exposed homosexual decadence going to be forced out?

Scottish media are reporting that Fr. Matthew Despard, may be expelled from the priesthood by Bishop Toal of the Diocese of Motherwell. Montfort carried a reflection, and it is well worth re-reading. 

In part, Montfort wrote:

 The "problem" of Fr. Despard is really a diversionary tactic; to throw people off the real issue. And it is not the allegations of choir directors and others who take umbrage to what may or may not be true, or what is in Fr. Despard's book. The issue is NOT Fr. Despard's book! The issue is: and I will restate it again for those who  seem to have difficulty in understanding: it is the sexual abuse of young people, and active homosexual activity by priests. That is the issue. Fr. Despard's book just helped blow the lid off the boil! The evil that is in the Church in Scotland is exemplified by the lying and covering up of horrible sexual crimes and behaviours.

Please pray for Fr. Despard and Scotland.   

The beginning of Advent: "Who is Our King"?

“Morning Of Advent” by
Tancau Emanuel

31 Meditations for Advent and Christmas

“The King Who is to come; O come let us adore Him.”

1st Day: WHO IS OUR KING?

Our King is Jesus Christ, God and Man. The name Jesus indicates His Divine nature. For Jesus means Saviour (“Thou shalt call His name Jesus; for He shall save His people from their sins”– Matt. i. 21). Now from our sins none can save us but One who is Himself God; none else can pay the debt due for man’s sin. Hence He who is our King is also our Saviour; and He who is our Saviour must be God, the God of infinite majesty, infinite power, and infinite knowledge. This is why before the name of Jesus every knee must bow; because the name of Jesus is the name of God. If men glory in having a noble King, how much more ought we to rejoice in having as our King the Omnipotent God and Lord of Heaven and earth.

Reverse Papolatry: how some Traditionalists have focused on the Pope rather than Our Lord

 "Whoever committeth sin, is the slave of sin" John 8:34

Pope Francis needs our prayers, not our hate, anger, rage. We have had weak, bad even evil popes before. The Church survived. Why? Because Christ is the Head of the Church, not a man. Christ has triumphed.

The Providence of God saw to enshrine in the First Vatican Council that the Supreme Pontiff actually has very little powers. He is not some arbitrary figure who may make up doctrine on a whim. To lament and rage over utterances of the Holy Father gives to him far, far more power than he ever had: it is a form of reverse papolatry. Eventually, the only sick logic of this is sedevacantism, or unbelief. The Pope is a liberal, but is infallible; ergo I must be a liberal. Or, the Pope is liberal, but is infallible, ergo he is not Pope. This is madness.

We do not know if the selection of Haring for praise was the Pope's or his advisors. In a sense, it does not matter. The men whom Pope Francis has surrounded himself are not giving good advise, nor have been giving good advise for some time. 

The proper reaction from Catholics to the confusion coming from Rome should not be anger, hatred, vulgarity, moral relativism etc. When Catholics calling themselves "traditional" do not understand that sin is sin, that it is black and white, then we have a serious problem: it is called moral relativism and it comes from being imbued with the poison of liberalism.

These are all signs of the Enemy and not the Holy Spirit.
 

There are a few voices of soundness, of calm who are speaking up. Cardinal Burke and Bishop Schneider are two exemplary voices in the hierarchy, but not the only ones. Notwithstanding, when Cardinal Burke did not commit episcopal "suicide" by denouncing the Pope within a few hours of the publication of Amoris Laetitia (and hence effectively removing himself from defending the truth), his voice is a voice of Catholic clarity proclaiming the truth in charity amongst the din of hatred.

When a mere man, the Pope in Rome, has become the centre of attention, the focus of hate, - not prayer - we have a serious problem. When Our Lord, who should be our focus, is a mere afterthought, we have an even bigger problem.

The Pope in Rome needs out prayers and sacrifices. We need to increase our prayers, and decrease our "noise". 

"It is easy to see what effects proceed from corrupt nature; they are such things as...feuds, quarrels, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, dissensions, factions, spite... I warn you, as I have warned you before, that those who live in such a way will not inherit God’s kingdom. Whereas the spirit yields a harvest of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, forbearance, gentleness, faith, courtesy, temperateness, purity".   
Galatians, 5, 19-23

How "Traditionalists" and "Modernists" join hands as the Servants of Satan

Our Lord and His Church are under demonic attack: such is the power of Satanism that he uses both "left" and "right" in undermining and destroying the Church. 

The devil does not care how he gets a soul but that he gets one. 

There is much laughter in hell when the "Traditionalist" and "Modernist" have both been swung off in the service of Satan.  

Archbishop Fulton Sheen was right when he once stated that the reason why so few people converted was because they had not meant an authentic Christian.

I ask: are these Tweets by authentic Christians?

(my apologies to the ladies who read this blog, for the monstrous expletive but the truth must be known). 

 

Going back to the 50s will not "make the Church great again"

Every so often Fiftiesism breaks out amongst Catholics who hanker for the "good old days" of Pius XII and the comfortable lives - so they think in their fantasy - of the Catholic Church prior to the Council. but the Council blew away the rot, the decadence, the hypocrisy, the liberalism, the Americanism  that had invaded the Catholic Church for decades prior to the 1960s. 

Fifties Catholicism was a Church far too rich, far too comfortable, far too conformable to the secular world that was rapidly sliding into apostasy.

We do not need to "make the Church great again" or some other shallow political slogan, for the Church was always great, from the moment She was born from Christ's side on Mount Calvary. What we need is to prayer, to act with humility, to never be tempted that we will save the Church. "Place not your trust in Princes..." 

Just as the Dominicans, the Jesuits, the Franciscans and the other once great Orders have crashed off to the side, seduced by liberalism, so too we see much of the Fraternity of St. Peter's and the Society of St. Pius X slowing crashing off to the side with Manicheanism and prideful temptations that they will be the special "elite" of God to save the Church. 

Pride always comes before the fall. Beware of pride, dear readers. God has never blessed or favoured the proud, but always brought them down.

Is it not a marvel that outside of the North American Martyrs, and a number of holy nuns, the only Canadian elevated to the Altars was the humble, semi-illiterate Brother Andre of Montreal? Let this extraordinary saint be a warning for our eminently "educated" churchmen. 

We need to "watch and pray", remain humble and follow the example of saints like Philip Neri or Therese of Lisieux.

I reflected a while ago on Fifties Catholicism, and stand by every word - even more so today, than when I wrote it. 

WE NEED THIS...

NOT THIS

BREAKING: Antonio Spadaro S.J., brings the hammer down on the Four Cardinals ~ terrorizing bishops and priests into silence

Antonio Spadaro. S.J., the man who is running this Papacy, is striking hammer blows at the Four Cardinals and any other potential opponents of Adultery with a series of vicious Tweets. 

The aggression of Spadaro is a way of warning any other churchmen who might wish to express opposition to giving Holy Communion to Adulterers to back off.

By bringing down the hammer on the Four, Spadaro is effectively terrorizing timid churchmen into silence. 

These Tweets are shots across the bow of any bishop who would dare speak up. 

Antonio Spadaro S.J., strikes back: The Four Cardinals are "disqualified" - the issue is now closed

As predicted by this blog, the dubia questions raised by the Four Cardinals regarding the permission of accepting Adulterers to Holy Communion has been soundly rejected by the Roman Authorities. 

Antonio Spadaro., S.J., the Ghost Writer of Francis', and the de facto "pope" of Rome has rejected out of hand and dismissed the Four Cardinals. In this, I am not surprised, indeed, I predicted it. In no way is Francis and his manipulator, Spadaro in any way inconvenienced. 

In an arrogant Tweet from his Twitter feed, Spadaro has reaffirmed Francis' letter to the south American Bishops, and sent a canon blast (no pun intended) towards the four Cardinals. 

The issue is now closed. 

The "official" Catholic media will now be strongly onside, the bishops of the world cowed; the laity - intoxicated with masturbation (well over 90%, perhaps as high as 95% of the general population), fornication, adultery, contraception, homosexual perversion, and unnatural oral and anal sex (actually onanistic sodomy which is being promoted by the Theology of the Body crowd) - solidly following Spadaro, will blindly accept the "wink-wink" at adultery from this Jesuit and his underlings in Rome. 

Be assured that The "Four Cardinals" and their dubia are now a dead issue, and the promotion of adultery is proceeding at full speed. 

Once again: we have the Pope we deserve.
