Murder and Mayhem: Ministers of Euthanasia

JMJ

I'm still overloaded, but there are a few events, incidents and thoughts that bear some consideration.

Euthanasia in Canada

In Canada euthanasia is called "Medical Assistance In Dying".

While the 'slippery slope' argument is regarded as a fallacy (Wiki Article link), the deletion of a principle was foreseen to enable a much wider application of the 'service'. Plus there was the example of other countries.

An SSPX priest told me that in the Netherlands they were called to give the last rites to an elderly grandmother. The priest arrived and there was a party going on and the Grandmother was in no distress. A family member explained that she was going to die the next day and this was her farewell party. The contradiction was obvious to the priest.

In Canada, there are no abortion laws as they were struck down decades ago. The result is medical abortion (the technical term to exclude spontaneous abortion which is commonly called a miscarriage) is available any time up to birth.

This set the stage for euthanasia and I have remarked that the negation of the principle taking an innocent baby life would eventually result in taking an elderly person's life - voluntarily or otherwise.

It is sad, but an indication of how weak the Catholic Church really is when a country in which Catholics represent 29.4% of the population (it used to be higher - around 40%) has both abortion and euthanasia.

That is the reason why this article is labelled as Crisis of the Church.

I have also noted that while there are noble efforts of the various pro-life organizations, they don't seem as well organized as the pro-death / choice organizations.

This lack of strategic cooperation will, in my opinion, make it a very, very long road to recovery.

Monsignor Robert Hugh Benson was prophetic when he wrote these words in the Lord of the World:

For instance, when a volor [aircraft] crashes in front of her, Mabel's "heart leap[s] in relief" when she witnesses the Government's Ministers of Euthanasia rush in to dispatch the wounded and dying. Her husband later comforts her by saying that she knows that "the euthanisers [sic] are the real priests." Source

The Ongoing Assault on the Tridentine Mass

The Mantra (link) is firmly in place as Cardinal Roche has made clear and just like a new religion of man emerged in 'The Lord of the World' we have a New Mass, New Theology and ergo, as some have said, a New Religion.

Before you trot off to the wrong conclusion. The modernism is, simply a movement with the Church. Like a cancer festering the flesh and bones of the Body of Christ. But Our Lord waits giving all the chance to repent.

Cdl Roche's words are simply and echoing of another mantra that has been uttered for decades and we should thank him for making the situation so crystal clear.

The theology of the Church has changed,” argued Roche. “Whereas before the priest represented, at a distance, all the people – they were channeled through this person who alone was celebrating the Mass. ... it is not only the priest who celebrates the liturgy but also those who are baptized with him, and that is an enormous statement to make.

This is a distortion of the actual Teaching of the Church on this point of theology.

Suffice to say, it seems that many of the sisters, nuns, brothers, monks, priests, bishops, cardinals, and perhaps even popes have become Ministers of Euthanasia of the immortal souls of the faithful, condemning them to an eternity of suffering in Hell.

That is not to say that there aren't those who are stand with Our Lord Jesus Christ, but the former occupy the positions of power and the good are too weak, too unorganized (like at the beginning of the Second Vatican Council) to mount a defence of the Catholic Truth.

Conclusion

The reality is that there is nothing new in these events, Traditional Catholics have seen them in the past, hopefully it will help some awaken from their stupor.

The news can be depressing, but the reality is that nothing has changed for us. We need to work for our salvation and those under our care. Once that is in underway, then we can offer a hand to others.

There is consolation to be found in this, God is Just and we are not to judge the state of the soul of others, we have to answer for ourselves. That will be quite enough for anyone to do.

Comparision of the Tridentine, Cranmer and Novus Ordo Masses

+ JMJ I downloaded the comparison that was linked in the previous article on the mass (here) . ... a very good reference! P^3 From: Whispers of Restoration (available at this link) . CHARTING LITURGICAL CHANGE Comparing the 1962 Ordinary of the Roman Mass to changes made during the Anglican Schism; Compared in turn to changes adopted in the creation of Pope Paul VI’s Mass in 1969 The chart on the reverse is a concise comparison of certain ritual differences between three historical rites for the celebration of the Catholic Mass Vetus Ordo: “Old Order,” the Roman Rite of Mass as contained in the 1962 Missal, often referred to as the “Traditional Latin Mass.”The Ordinary of this Mass is that of Pope St. Pius V (1570) following the Council of Trent (1545-63), hence the occasional moniker “Tridentine Mass.” However, Trent only consolidated and codified the Roman Rite already in use at that time; its essential form dates to Pope St. Gregory the Great (+604), in whose time the R

Auctorem Fidei

Can the SSPX be right about the Novus Ordo? Revision: Feb 11, 2013 On another web forum, I was engaged in a rather heated discussion about the documents of Vatican II.

Is it sinful to attend the Novus Ordo (New Mass) - Is it Sinful to Not Attend the Novus Ordo on Sunday?

+ JMJ A non-SSPX Catholic is upset over the SSPX statements on not attending the Novus Ordo Missae. Ladies and gentlemen, what the SSPX, or at least its website editor, is advocating is a mortal sin against the Third Commandment. Unless the priest deviates from the language of the Sacramentary, the consecration, and thus the rest of Mass is to be considered valid. No one may elect not to attend Mass simply because abuses are occurring therein. Might I suggest that such absenteeism is its own abuse? The Third Commandment binds under mortal sin. Father So-And-So from the SSPX has no authority whatsoever to excuse attendance at Mass, be that Mass ever so unpalatable. Source:Restore DC Catholicism Well, this is interesting. First why does the SSPX issue this statement? Because it is sinful to put your faith in danger by attending a protestant service. It is likewise dangerous to put your faith in danger by attending a protestantized mass (ie the Novus Ordo Missae

War: SSPX

+ JMJ We seem to be in transition from the persecution of the SSPX and other faithful Catholics to a civil war within the Catholic Church i.e. a true schism. Several Bishops, Priests and Dioceses have rejected outright Fiducia Supplicans (link) . This, in my opinion (IMO), is a new inflection point on the way to what will amount to an civil war within the Catholic Church. Pope Francis had spent the past ten years putting the final touches on the fault-lines within the Church and this may be the final blow that actually awakens Our Lord sleeping in the bow of the Barque of St. Peter. That is something that we need to remember, Our Lord is with his Church, even on its way to Calvary. So, what is about to happen is that, IMO, faithful Catholics will find themselves in the same situation as the SSPX. Persecuted and fighting for the heart of the Catholic Church. The history of the SSPX provides a microcosm of what we might expect to happen in the Catholic Church during a 'civil war&#

Communique about Avrille Dominicans - SSPX.org

+ JMJ Having completed the review of the 'Avrille' perspective, this communique from the French District Superior is perfectly timed. I believe that the 'resistance' has lost rationality and further argumentation simply results in their holding on to their false ideal all the more firmly. Pray much ... First, for them to acquiesce to the grace of humility in order to obtain a clear perspective on the principles involved. Second, that we may remain faithful to the Church, and Her Dogmas, Doctrines and Principles. Lest we become that which against we strove ... P^3 Courtesy of SSPX.org
