Father Aulagnier Passes Away on May 6, 2021

JMJ

While Fr. Aulgnier was expelled in 2004 "for having supported the agreement between the Personal Apostolic Administration of Saint John Mary Vianney and the Vatican" (link:wikipedia), the SSPX has demonstrated Catholic Charity for even those with whom they don't agree with on some issues.

On Wednesday May 6, 2021, Fr. Paul Aulagnier fell asleep in the Lord after receiving Last Rites.

Born on May 23, 1943, Fr. Aulagnier was among the first group of seminarians to join Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre at the advent of the Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX). After receiving ordination in 1971, Fr. Aulagnier was the Society’s First Assistant from 1973 until 1982. He later become District Superior of France from 1976 to 1994 before becoming Second Assistant from 1994 until 2002. Even though he left the SSPX in 2003, he remained attached the life and legacy of Archbishop Lefebvre.

In addition to his priestly ministry, he was also a professor and subdirector of the Society’s seminary at Ecône in the early years. During his time in France, he oversaw the SSPX’s expansion, including the establishment of new chapels, schools, and priories.

Despite his departure from the Society, he remained a steadfast worker for the restoration of Catholic Tradition. May he rest in peace.

Is the object of Catholic, Jewish and Islamic worship the same God? - Updated

+ JMJ Do Jews and Muslims worship the same God as the Catholics? This question is raised often in the context of the statements made in the Second Vatican Council concerning these two religions. Namely: In the first place amongst these there are the Muslims, who, professing to hold the faith of Abraham, along with us adore the one and merciful God, who on the last day will judge mankind.( Lumen Gentium 16) 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, (Nostra Aetate 3) Nostra Aetate 3 - Footnote: 5. Cf St. Gregory VII, letter XXI to Anzir (Nacir), King of Mauritania (Pl. 148, col. 450f.)

A Reply to Martin Blackshaw’s FLAWED Remnant article titled: FLAWED: SSPX Advice on Abortion-tainted Vaccines

+ JMJ An article has appeared in the Remnant (link to article) and I am afraid that there are a number of flaws in it that need to be addressed. The author, Martin Blackshaw, believes that both the Church and the SSPX are misapplying the principle of Moral Theology called 'Cooperation In Evil'. Unfortunately, Mr. Blackshaw rests most of his arguments on citing authors that support his position, without considering the possibility that they are wrong. This highlights a key factor in this crisis: ignorance of the faith and its application . I don't am not singling out Mr. Blackshaw for this criticism, I have observed that it applies to laity and religious, superior and subject a like. No one seems immune in this enduring crisis, myself included. I further believe that this ignorance is why so many Catholics, both traditional and non, rely on their gut feeling or "Catholic conscience" for charting their way through this crisis of the faith.
