The John-Henry Westen Show - Fr. Altman on the SSPX Bishop Consecrations and Excommunications

00:00:00.000 The very fact that we have to debate whether or not there is a state of emergency definitively

00:00:06.240 tells us there is a state of emergency. There was never a state of emergency before Vatican II. Do

00:00:11.220 you get this? Hello, my friends. Welcome to the John Henry Weston Show. We have a beloved guest

00:00:18.360 who is a great friend of mine and I know of yours, and his name is Father James Altman.

00:00:24.380 I wanted to ask Father Altman his take on what's going on with the Society of St. Pius

00:00:29.880 the 10th and the huge kerfuffle in the church today so let's say hello to father altman good

00:00:36.300 morning father good to see you please give us your blessing as we start certainly in no many

00:00:41.720 parties of philia especially signed to amen the lord be with you and with your spirit and through

00:00:46.980 the intercession of saint cyril and methodius two greats of our catholic heritage may we this day

00:00:54.720 have their intercession and their blessing

00:00:57.360 to be witnesses of faith as were they,

00:01:01.360 witnesses to the bright light of truth

00:01:03.460 in this ever-darkening world.

00:01:04.760 We ask this grace and this blessing.

00:01:06.340 In nomine Patris,

00:01:07.300 aphelia,

00:01:07.940 Spiritus Sancti.

00:01:09.060 Amen.

00:01:09.820 Amen.

00:01:11.280 Well, Father,

00:01:12.300 you have witnessed all of what I did live

00:01:15.820 in Econ,

00:01:17.860 and then seen the condemnations come

00:01:20.520 both before and after from the Vatican.

00:01:23.940 A lot of people are wondering, what's your take?

00:01:26.460 Please.

00:01:27.660 Well, if you just read the New Testament, if you read the words of Jesus, if you read

00:01:32.880 the words of Peter and Paul and of John the Beloved, and you see that in good times and

00:01:39.080 bad times, you still profess the faith in season and out season that we're supposed

00:01:44.180 to stand firm and hold fast to the unchanged and unchangeable truth.

00:01:47.960 And there will come a time, as Paul said in 2 Timothy 4, 3, when people will not accept the truth.

00:01:54.300 They will be led astray by people who do not speak the truth, by myths and legends.

00:02:01.640 We're living in that time.

00:02:03.380 It has been predicted.

00:02:05.660 We have been warned by such as the great Archbishop Fulton Sheen, by Sister Lucia, by Our Lady of Fatima, by Our Lady of La Salette, by Our Lady of Akita, Our Lady of Quito, Ecuador.

00:02:16.740 we've been warned and forewarned so many times that there is no excuse for us not seeing

00:02:22.420 and recognizing in what we see that Pachamama Jorge Bergoglio and Pachamama Leo are leading

00:02:29.720 the church astray and it has been they're just they are the culmination of what has been going

00:02:35.800 on since back in the 30s when Fulton Sheen was warning us about what was coming and why he said

00:02:41.900 it's going to be up to the laity to make the bring the church back to make the bishops act

00:02:45.920 like bishops, priests act like priests, that we're living in that time. And it reached certainly its

00:02:52.220 clearest demarcation on July 1st. And I kept looking forward to it. I said, yeah, I want to

00:02:59.140 see if the heretics and schismatics in the hierarchy are actually going to follow through

00:03:04.140 with their little threats against SSPX. And why I thought that was so important for them to,

00:03:11.900 This was the time to make it crystal clear

00:03:15.640 if they're going to go after SSPX, 0.98

00:03:18.420 but not after all the heretics and schismatics in their ranks.

00:03:23.500 Then it just makes it crystal clear. 0.72

00:03:25.420 Anybody who's truly Catholic, who knows anything about their faith, 0.97

00:03:28.540 knows what a charade it is that's now happening in Rome. 0.96

00:03:32.000 And the absurdity of going after SSPX,

00:03:34.860 when like, what, a month or so ago, 0.67

00:03:37.220 Leo sits down with that cross-dressing Sarah Mullally

00:03:40.800 and says that, oh, they are one. 0.99

00:03:43.700 These schismatics and heretics who have executed

00:03:46.240 how many Catholics over the years?

00:03:48.100 St. Thomas More, Bishop St. John Fisher,

00:03:50.480 how many others did they execute over the years 0.98

00:03:52.480 because they were schismatics

00:03:54.540 and they hated the Catholic Church?

00:03:56.100 And Leo now says, oh, we're one.

00:03:57.840 As she sits there cross-dressing, 1.00

00:03:59.960 it just looks so repugnant. 1.00

00:04:03.080 I can tell you this, any true Catholic 1.00

00:04:04.880 would look at Sarah Mullaly and want to vomit 1.00

00:04:08.480 with the cross-dressing 1.00

00:04:10.440 yeah 0.99

00:04:12.300 the horribleness

00:04:14.240 there's horrible

00:04:15.740 and yet there sits Leo

00:04:18.540 saying that's okay

00:04:20.680 but he's the same one that said

00:04:22.120 all roads, all religions

00:04:24.020 just like Bergoglio are paths to heaven 1.00

00:04:27.040 but apparently the one path to heaven

00:04:29.280 you can never be on

00:04:30.540 is the TLM

00:04:32.700 is with the SSPX

00:04:34.580 and the traditional Latin mass 1.00

00:04:35.740 which is the only infallible

00:04:37.600 dogmatic mass in the history of the Catholic Church. Father, I don't want to make your hair

00:04:42.460 stand up, but watch this. This video is not only Leo welcoming Sarah Mullally, and you remember

00:04:50.960 his letter to her at the occasion of her installation as the Archbishop of Canterbury?

00:04:56.580 It was so welcoming, blessing, conferring, and taking inspiration from Our Lady. I bless you

00:05:04.900 and your great mission and all this stuff.

00:05:06.300 Imagine if he had said that, even that, to the four new bishops.

00:05:09.640 He didn't.

00:05:10.660 But this is a video of him saying Vespers in the Vatican with Sarah Malali.

00:05:17.020 Back and forth.

00:05:17.540 Watch this.

00:05:17.880 so there was that father yes the the profoundly disturbing nature of that remember she was

00:05:43.140 downstairs, I think, I think near Peter's bones, giving a blessing to a bishop? It's supposed to

00:05:50.880 be the other way around. This is inside the Clementine Chapel, the chapel in the downstairs

00:05:57.560 at the Vatican, which is the closest. In fact, it's just sitting literally on top of Peter's

00:06:02.140 bones. And it's the one that used to be mega reserved. And there is Sarah Mullally dressed

00:06:08.720 as if she were a priest or bishop.

00:06:10.960 And then the Vatican bishop who does, I think,

00:06:14.360 ecumenical relations or whatever, takes a blessing for Isis.

00:06:18.540 So anyway.

00:06:20.100 There was a, I think it was a U.S. bishop

00:06:22.920 who helped consecrate, co-consecrate.

00:06:27.940 I think it was another Anglican bishop.

00:06:30.040 It was another Anglican bishop.

00:06:31.500 That's okay.

00:06:32.720 It's okay.

00:06:33.260 But God forbid you consecrate an SSPX bishop.

00:06:37.460 God forbid you do that.

00:06:39.460 It's just so black and white.

00:06:40.980 How can you argue for what the Vatican now has done?

00:06:47.480 What Tucho Fernandez, Fracaccini Tucho Fernandez,

00:06:51.460 Cultitoni Tucho Fernandez,

00:06:54.000 how can we take it seriously?

00:06:58.780 And it just shows.

00:06:59.760 I'm so happy that their true colors,

00:07:03.280 all rainbow one of them that they have,

00:07:05.660 that they have shown their true colors and and so because now there's just there's just no doubt 0.62

00:07:12.620 any true catholic knows they have schismed from the catholic church they have excommunicated

00:07:19.400 themselves of course when you knew that once you saw leo bowing down to the pachamama himself

00:07:23.600 just like bergoglio did that's self-excommunication he has not publicly repudiated it or 0.81

00:07:29.220 didn't he doesn't deny it because it's on video you can't deny it we got a bunch of schismatics 0.87

00:07:35.040 and heretics in the upper

00:07:36.940 echelon and

00:07:38.180 okay, do your

00:07:41.120 worst to us. I don't care.

00:07:43.080 Well, it's an interesting I don't

00:07:45.140 care because one

00:07:47.080 of our own researchers

00:07:48.840 pulled out church teaching,

00:07:51.060 official church teaching, that you

00:07:52.980 can't be excommunicated 1.00

00:07:54.820 by a heretic. 0.99

00:07:56.900 That's very interesting.

00:07:58.940 You're not invalid.

00:08:01.120 Yeah, because I think the quotes are really powerful.

00:08:03.200 I mean, it just basically says that, that you can't 0.99

00:08:05.020 be communicated by a heretic. But get this, this is the actual church teaching. It's St. Bellarmine,

00:08:11.820 Robert Bellarmine cites Pope Celestine's text. He says, the Holy Fathers teach unanimously,

00:08:20.780 not only that heretics are outside the church, but also that they are ipso facto deprived of

00:08:25.900 all ecclesiastical jurisdiction and dignity. Also, there's another quote by Pope Alexander II

00:08:31.980 to a bishop, and you can read it in Gretion, in the canon Audifimus of Gretion, an excommunicated

00:08:40.220 person cannot excommunicate another. And so, I mean, all this is like, wow, okay. But, you know,

00:08:49.760 the SSPX actually, before they were going to do the consecrations, months before, I remember them

00:08:54.220 saying that they believed that the bishop consecrations that they're about to undertake

00:09:00.580 would be a great blessing for the church. And in fact, even at this early date, I would say they

00:09:07.880 are because it's really forced out of the closet a lot of stuff in the background that it was too

00:09:17.360 impossible to exist. And yet it was there and no one's talking about it. And this has really got

00:09:24.200 the discussion started. The quiet part is now said out loud. What was murmured about

00:09:31.000 is now spoken openly. And it's forced, you have to take a side. There's no more gray middle ground.

00:09:37.320 There's no more pretending. There's no more pretending. You're on one side or you're on

00:09:45.160 the other. And if you're on Leo's side, you're on the schismatic side, the heretic side of the

00:09:49.440 Catholic Church. I can't even call it the Catholic Church. He's an apostate, total apostate. And 0.51

00:09:57.620 you're quoting Bellarmine. Bellarmine's the one that would say what you just said, which was

00:10:02.540 that a heretic can't excommunicate a heretic because he's excommunicated himself, and that

00:10:08.840 a pope can actually lose the faculties of his office if he goes contrary to the teaching of

00:10:14.940 catholic church i mean this is nobody there's been some badly behaved posts we've talked about

00:10:19.660 it before really grave sinners but really i think maybe once before conceivably at the time of

00:10:26.940 athanasius there was one issue that they were confused about and that's the divinity of christ

00:10:31.820 and and that was that was that's huge obviously um but that was it now it's the sum of all

00:10:39.100 All heresies is what they call the modernism now.

00:10:43.700 And ultimately it replaces, it's a denial of God, isn't it?

00:10:49.120 Isn't that what they're really doing?

00:10:50.980 And a divinization of man and man's opinion.

00:10:55.360 And what people just need to understand, it can just be stated so simply.

00:10:58.360 We belong to the one holy catholic and apostolic church.

00:11:01.880 the doctrine of the church, versus we don't belong to the first church of Robert Prevost, Leo XIV's personal opinions.

00:11:13.400 That's not the church we belong to, his exalted personal opinions.

00:11:17.740 We don't have to obey his exalted personal opinions, but we sure better obey the doctrine of the church.

00:11:24.680 And you know, this is what it all came down to, and that was what was so brilliant about that.

00:11:27.480 I think it was 154 paragraphs that the SSPX put out on their doctrine of faith.

00:11:34.100 Said, this is what we believe, and this is what we're going to follow,

00:11:37.240 and this is what you, Rome, are actually not following.

00:11:40.260 You are going contrary to this doctrine of faith.

00:11:43.280 So it was such a brilliant thing because this is what it all comes down to.

00:11:48.020 Follow and obey the doctrine of the church,

00:11:50.320 or follow and obey a shepherd,

00:11:56.080 a false shepherd, if you will,

00:11:58.040 a shepherd of a wolf in sheep's clothing.

00:12:00.640 What comes first?

00:12:02.060 Obedience to the doctrine of Almighty God

00:12:04.800 or obedience to some human being and his opinion?

00:12:07.780 That's really what it all comes down to.

00:12:09.980 And so that's where the fight is.

00:12:11.520 Obedience?

00:12:12.120 Oh, you'll do what I say or I'll excommunicate you

00:12:14.320 even though you've excommunicated yourself already, 0.99

00:12:16.420 Pachamama Leo.

00:12:17.740 Or doctrine?

00:12:18.780 the unchanged and changeable deposit of faith

00:12:21.000 that has been handed down to us

00:12:22.120 by 2,000 years of martyrs.

00:12:24.160 Leo and every one of his Coltutoni,

00:12:26.900 every one of his Frocchini appointments

00:12:28.740 spits on the grave of every martyr for 2,000 years.

00:12:32.820 So yeah, it's so crystal clear.

00:12:35.140 And if you don't know that,

00:12:36.020 if somebody out there doesn't know that,

00:12:37.720 then they don't know their Catholic faith

00:12:39.140 and that is on them. 0.59

00:12:41.040 They will be personally culpable

00:12:42.460 for not knowing their faith well enough to know

00:12:44.960 we obey, as St. Peter and the Apostle said

00:12:48.500 to the hierarchy of their day we must obey god not man so that's what it's hung down to and that's

00:12:54.560 their sole reason they don't say that sspx is invalid uh because the doctrine how can they

00:13:01.420 they didn't respond to a single one of those 154 paragraphs that of doctrine that sspx stated

00:13:09.920 but you compare what sspx stated to the germans and the austrians and the you know james martin

00:13:16.800 and Blaise Cupich, and, you know, the Weisenberger in Detroit,

00:13:22.240 and that guy down in, he's in North Carolina.

00:13:25.320 What's Charlotte, North Carolina?

00:13:26.320 When you compare what SSPX said to the error that they're teaching,

00:13:31.740 you readily recognize they're not teaching the Catholic Church.

00:13:34.500 You know who said that?

00:13:35.140 Bishop Strickland said that maybe two years ago, July.

00:13:37.920 He said every bishop in the United States, there's roughly 300,

00:13:42.220 knows full well that Jorge Bergoglio, he called him Pope Francis,

00:13:46.860 Pope Francis is teaching contrary to the Catholic faith.

00:13:52.680 And that means you are excommunicated instantly when you teach heresy.

00:13:58.420 That makes you a heretic. 0.62

00:13:59.720 It means you're gone. 0.98

00:14:00.740 It means you have no more authority in the church.

00:14:02.860 Well, Leo's following right along with it, the whole synod on synodality.

00:14:07.800 2,000 years.

00:14:09.060 No, we don't need synod.

00:14:10.400 We don't need your opinion, Leo.

00:14:12.560 We don't need anybody else's opinion.

00:14:13.840 We don't need teenagers' opinions. 1.00

00:14:15.400 I could go on and on about how stupid it is. 0.99

00:14:18.000 Anybody with a—our eternal souls are at risk, and our eternal souls depend on a lot more than somebody's synodal opinion. 0.99

00:14:27.440 It depends on the doctrine of faith, right?

00:14:30.160 The deposit.

00:14:30.660 You know, Father, in the Scriptures it says, in the end, even the elect, which could mean the bishops, it could also mean just the faithful who are actually faithful, even the elect, if it be possible, will be confused.

00:14:45.120 Our Lord also warned, they will strike the shepherd and the sheep will be scattered.

00:14:51.280 And to me, I see such good people on both sides of this, just as confused as ever, but

00:14:59.560 issuing sort of pronouncements or where they stand, you know, because those who want to,

00:15:05.680 in their minds, remain faithful to the Petrian office are saying, you know, they're excommunicated.

00:15:11.660 and it's sad, but they're excommunicated.

00:15:15.320 We can't go there.

00:15:16.040 They don't have valid sacraments, blah, blah, blah.

00:15:20.100 And those on the other side saying, why can't you see?

00:15:23.180 Both sides are basically saying, why can't you see?

00:15:26.680 And it's weird because I know people on both sides

00:15:30.460 who are awesome Catholics.

00:15:32.600 They are trying to live the faith.

00:15:34.720 They're wanting nothing more than to live their lives

00:15:37.980 for the faith.

00:15:38.560 so this situation this time that we're living in it is an insane time of confusion like we've never

00:15:49.220 ever seen before on they're doing mental gymnastics and everyone seems to be engaged

00:15:56.600 because it's how how do we do anything different when i saw the likes of taylor marshall even

00:16:03.340 father ripperger um and other super holy men saying i don't think they can go ahead with this

00:16:12.160 because there's no state of emergency in the church i i i i just i didn't i didn't i couldn't

00:16:19.640 that well i lost at that point i was like what so i put together uh a music video which um

00:16:26.140 i picked up some and it just well you saw it father what'd you make of that i did i did uh

00:16:32.760 you know do you remember that oh gosh it was some show in the 50s 60s where some american

00:16:40.220 bandstand he'd say well it's got a good beat but yours had excellent descriptive lyrics

00:16:48.120 that really it just it just shows in a very cool way what's going on and what we're having to deal

00:16:57.580 with today and when you compare uh here's where i think the confusion is john henry is um first of

00:17:07.620 all i've always said i repeatedly say confusion is not from heaven that jesus did not go through

00:17:12.700 all he went through in passion week suffering dying etc to leave us confused about anything

00:17:18.260 so if there's confusion that's not from heaven it's from hell itself so the truth is not confusing

00:17:27.940 And when all of a sudden there's a cloud of confusion comes in,

00:17:30.680 you have to look at who's spreading that cloud of confusion.

00:17:32.860 And this is now coming from the Pope and his cardinals and his bishops,

00:17:38.360 who he keeps appointing bishops who spread the confusion.

00:17:41.980 You know, Leo himself just spread the confusion.

00:17:45.200 Well, that wasn't really a miracle of multiplication of the loaves and fishes.

00:17:48.980 It was just changing hearts, right?

00:17:51.400 That's abject heresy. 0.99

00:17:52.560 He should be thrown out and stoned outside the Vatican walls for that heresy. 0.99

00:17:58.820 You know, at the very least, tarred and feathered. 0.99

00:18:01.220 That is leading lambs astray.

00:18:03.760 That is preaching.

00:18:04.700 Even if an angel from heaven preaches contrary to the gospel,

00:18:08.280 then anathema sit, let him be accursed.

00:18:11.620 Leo's no angel from heaven, that's for sure, as we saw him bow down to the Pachamama.

00:18:15.520 So the state of emergency, is there a state of emergency?

00:18:18.360 Well, if there's confusion, yes, there is.

00:18:20.460 If there are bishops and cardinals and popes, now we've had two, who are teaching contrary to the doctrine of the church and leading lambs astray, that, by definition, is an emergency.

00:18:33.400 You often hear it said this way, well, if I can just save one soul by doing something, by going out and being a missionary, if I can just save one soul,

00:18:40.700 Well, what Bergoglio and Prevost are doing is they're leading not just 1.4 billion Catholic souls astray.

00:18:48.660 They're leading the entire globe astray because what Jesus said is go out and teach everybody, every person, every place, throughout all time, what I have commanded you, what I have taught you. 0.62

00:18:58.680 Therefore, that meant you must lead the whole world into truth, into the one truth, and there's only one.

00:19:04.240 What Leo and Bergoglio before him are doing is they're leading not just the Catholic Church, but everybody else.

00:19:10.700 astray. That, by definition, is a state of emergency. Before Vatican II, there are 20

00:19:16.920 councils, which are infallible and dogmatic. It taught the truth, the doctrine, no changes

00:19:22.020 whatsoever. And all of a sudden, now they're saying, but you must swear allegiance to Vatican

00:19:26.780 II, which itself taught error, period. Nostraetate is absolutely heretical and schismatic from the

00:19:35.360 doctrine of the church for 2,000 years. And I've had homilies where I go through three councils

00:19:40.500 five canonized popes

00:19:42.580 and a boatload of saints

00:19:44.600 and doctors of the church

00:19:45.860 and then you find

00:19:46.920 Nostra Aetate

00:19:47.580 which is teaching

00:19:48.220 contrary to that

00:19:48.960 2,000 years

00:19:49.860 right

00:19:50.220 you don't swear

00:19:51.980 you don't have to swear

00:19:52.780 allegiance to Vatican II

00:19:54.380 that's not

00:19:55.480 ever

00:19:56.360 you know

00:19:56.800 what do we have

00:19:57.800 we have

00:19:58.300 what was it

00:19:59.180 Constantinople I

00:20:00.480 where you have

00:20:01.220 Council of Nicaea

00:20:03.500 where you have

00:20:03.800 the Nicene Creed

00:20:04.520 that's what we proclaim

00:20:07.940 that's what we profess

00:20:09.840 as our one holy catholic episode church we don't belong to the first church of vatican ii

00:20:16.240 we don't owe allegiance to vatican ii which was not dogmatic it was merely pastoral unlike trent

00:20:23.420 which was dogmatic the very fact that we have to debate whether or not there is a state of

00:20:30.860 emergency definitively tells us there is a state of emergency because otherwise we wouldn't even

00:20:38.860 be discussed. There was never a state of emergency before Vatican II. Do you get this? There was

00:20:44.700 never confusion in a state of emergency before Vatican II. You know, Leo XIII warned us,

00:20:50.620 100 years and a lot more power. Well, then it comes to fruition in Vatican II and thenceforth

00:20:55.500 afterward. And like Jesus said, judge it by its fruits. Before Vatican II, roughly 100% of

00:21:02.780 Catholics went to church on Sunday, kept the Lord's Day holy, understood the Sixth Commandment is what

00:21:07.400 the sixth commandment is and and they believed in the real presence since vatican ii as i've

00:21:12.300 said repeatedly over the last 20 years 50 people didn't go to mass didn't believe in the real

00:21:18.460 presence went down to 60 didn't go to mass didn't believe it's now minimally at least 70 and i've

00:21:23.740 heard as high as 90 of people including bishops priests bishops cardinals and pope don't believe

00:21:29.300 in the real presence don't believe in hell that what else what else do we need to know

00:21:36.360 that they that they openly profess Pope Francis Jorge Bergoglio says oh there's not really a help

00:21:44.660 and there's no eternal damnation of souls you just go poof it's called annihilation that was what he

00:21:49.900 taught for him to say carrying the white casket around for him to say something like that absolute

00:21:55.040 complete apostate he's the one that rose up Leo amidst us and so many of the cardinals okay how 0.59

00:22:02.000 How can there how can anyone not say there's not a state of emergency or say there's not a state? 0.53

00:22:07.680 How can they say that? What what's what rock are they under for the last hundred years?

00:22:13.660 Hey, my friends, it's going to be a really historic night on September.

00:22:17.520 The 24th, Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen will be beatified in St. Louis, Missouri.

00:22:22.920 That same evening, LifeSite News is hosting a special celebratory banquet.

00:22:28.380 just steps away from the stadium where the beatification is taking place.

00:22:32.840 We will have Bishop Sheen's own favorite mitre with us for veneration.

00:22:37.700 Come and celebrate Blessed Fulton Sheen with lifelong Sheen promoters, Terry Barber and Alan Smith.

00:22:45.040 Father James Altman, our beloved friend, will also be speaking to us there.

00:22:49.380 And there are only a few tickets left, so be sure to get them while they're available.

00:22:54.500 Hotel rooms are already very difficult to find. Most are already booked, but LifeSite has secured

00:23:01.720 a block of rooms exclusively for those who join us for the dinner. Reserve your seats today.

00:23:07.560 The link is below. I look forward to seeing you in St. Louis.

00:23:13.900 Pope Leo just elevated a bishop to the Bishop of Eichstatt in Germany. A heretic who, he's a 0.99

00:23:21.900 James Martin plus he actually remember that the document the Germans wanted to push through they 0.70

00:23:28.860 wanted the formal blessing of homosexual couples and Leo was like no no we can only have the 0.78

00:23:33.480 informal blessings well a distinction without a difference but nonetheless right he signed on to

00:23:39.660 that he signed on to the document about how trans people should be warmly welcomed we should get

00:23:44.620 rid of awkwardness in the church about them blah blah he's as you might say he's a freak job this

00:23:51.460 But this is the guy Leo appoints today as the bishop of Eichstadt in Germany,

00:23:57.660 while at the same time excommunicating the bishops of the society.

00:24:05.040 Frank Wright, at Faith and Reason, he always says this about Leo Francis.

00:24:10.660 You know, it's all about todos, todos, todos.

00:24:12.400 And then he says ABC, for everyone all but Catholic. 0.89

00:24:18.720 Yeah, exactly.

00:24:19.860 I just saw this today. The Presbyterian Church of the United States, which is the largest group of Presbyterians, just voted today and the crowd went bananas that it's okay to give medical drugs to transgender and give them the chop off their body parts. 0.87

00:24:39.360 And that was okay.

00:24:42.200 And you just, God created them, male and female, okay?

00:24:49.100 So we're, as humans, are going to make a decision different than what God said. 0.82

00:24:54.240 And yet you get the Germans and now the popes, you know, allowing such an incremental attack on the sacredness of God's creation. 0.88

00:25:06.740 And isn't that what it is? 0.71

00:25:07.700 God, it is sacred that God created us male and female. And anything contrary to that is not just

00:25:16.100 not sacred. It's diabolical. It is satanic. It is from hell itself. And yet, here you go. He

00:25:22.560 just appoints another bishop who is teaching absolute heresy. That bishop, well, first of all,

00:25:29.140 shouldn't be a bishop. He should be removed and excommunicated himself. Leo is excommunicating

00:25:34.580 the wrong people. So now we know. As I said, I'm so glad he did what he did with SSPX. I couldn't

00:25:41.280 be happier that he did what he did, because now he is ultimately, absolutely, unequivocally exposed 0.98

00:25:47.500 for the heretic, schismatic apostate that he is. And, you know, but we already knew this about 0.65

00:25:55.880 Bergoglio, right? And, you know, the Abu Dhabi agreement, the nobody goes to hell, there is no

00:26:02.520 hell and etc and and the pachamama of course i don't know you know first of all you know leo

00:26:09.340 hasn't repudiated what he did down there in peru but there's bergoglio bringing the pachamama into

00:26:14.640 the vatican guards for this worship service where they're all bowing down and then he carries it on

00:26:18.540 the shoulders of bishops into the church into saint peter's and you know the only thing that

00:26:22.980 should be on a bishop's shoulders the eucharist or a statue of the mother of god herself in

00:26:29.480 veneration. No, they're carrying

00:26:31.480 an apachamama, and Leo

00:26:33.140 hasn't repudiated it. He hasn't

00:26:35.440 repudiated the absolute, 1.00

00:26:37.300 schismatic, heretical apostate

00:26:39.740 that Leo was. That means he's, 0.69

00:26:42.200 and he has a duty

00:26:43.500 to do so, and he hasn't. So that tells you all

00:26:45.460 you need to know about Leo.

00:26:47.140 I don't know how much more I can say. It's not,

00:26:49.580 it's so crystal clear,

00:26:51.520 and I'm happy. Thank you, Leo.

00:26:54.360 Send a message to Leo.

00:26:55.540 Send a memo to Leo.

00:26:57.260 Say, Father Altman is thrilled that he

00:26:58.980 excommunicate, that he attempted to excommunicate. But as you know, somebody who himself is

00:27:03.520 excommunicated cannot excommunicate anybody. But at least we know he has now revealed himself in

00:27:09.700 his true rainbow colors as the ice cube blessing. Oh my God in heaven. The list goes on.

00:27:18.620 Father, one really beautiful aspect is you can already see fruits, good fruits,

00:27:24.720 of the bishop's consecrations. So one of the things that is happening now all over the place

00:27:31.800 is it is coming from conservative bishops all over the world and some cardinals.

00:27:37.060 But it's interesting because in light of the SSPX bishop's consecrations and then their

00:27:43.860 excommunication, they are all of a sudden now calling for a return of sumorum pontificum.

00:27:51.260 It's kind of like making the SSPX scapegoats and trying to do good things because of it or with it or whatever.

00:28:02.060 Strikes me, though, they've been around all this time when, you know, Tradiciones Custodas came out and it continues to be suppressed and suppressed and suppressed.

00:28:11.060 But it is quite the thing that there's now all of a sudden a call for return to Sumorum Pontificum, get rid of Traditionis Custodis, in light of what the SSPX has done.

00:28:27.620 Your thoughts?

00:28:28.100 So I've always said what Pope Benedict XVI gave us in Sumorum Pontificum was he didn't give us anything we didn't already have.

00:28:38.520 We already were 100%, and people, you need to know this.

00:28:43.000 We were and are and remain and always will be 100% entitled to the infallible and dogmatic holy sacrifice of the Mass in the Tridentine Rite.

00:28:55.280 We are entitled to it.

00:28:56.240 They can't take it away from us, and you can tell every single bishop, cardinal, and pope to go take a hike.

00:29:01.900 Long walk off the short pier.

00:29:03.620 I'm being polite, John Henry.

00:29:05.320 because you prefer that I have the light.

00:29:08.460 Benedict said in that document what the point of it is

00:29:11.120 is you bishops are wrongfully denying the faithful

00:29:14.880 their right to have the Mass of the Ages,

00:29:19.240 the infallible dogmatic Tridentine right.

00:29:21.860 You must, if they're there, you must give it to them, right?

00:29:25.600 And that's what happened.

00:29:26.500 All of a sudden, people were suddenly freed to demand

00:29:29.740 we want the Mass to which we are entitled.

00:29:33.680 It already was ours.

00:29:35.240 The bishops had wrongfully taken it away. 0.85

00:29:37.120 That's what Samorum Pontifican is all about.

00:29:39.480 It's not Benedict give us something that the next guy, Leo, or Goglio, could take away.

00:29:44.860 Leo could continue to take it away.

00:29:46.480 And oh, then the next guy could give it back.

00:29:48.320 And then the next guy could take it. 0.88

00:29:49.580 That's not the Catholic Church.

00:29:50.640 The Catholic Church is unchanged, unchangeable.

00:29:52.520 And you look at the doctrine of the first 20 councils.

00:29:55.480 To swear allegiance, by the way, to Vatican II means to swear disallegiance to the first 20 dogmatic councils that were there.

00:30:02.160 The whole concept is preposterous, but people don't know because they're ignorant of their faith through their own fault, through their own fault, through their own grave fault.

00:30:10.960 Anyway, so now we have some bishops finally saying, well, you really should, you know, really uphold Pontificum Samorum, Samorum Pontificum, and get rid of Traditionis Gestotis.

00:30:23.460 By the way, wasn't Tucho behind TC?

00:30:27.440 Brigoglio and Tucho, that dynamic duo from hell.

00:30:30.120 wow why anybody listens to Tucho about anything listen he wrote heal me with your lips right so

00:30:39.420 why would we want him as head of the doctrine of faith that in and of itself ought to tell you

00:30:44.640 about their boss which was Bergoglio and now Leo that he's still there that uh Coltutoni that

00:30:51.940 Fraccuccini he's still sitting there is tells you this if that doesn't tell you why we don't have to

00:30:57.620 listen to error spouting forth from their mouths i don't know what does well anyway now you've got

00:31:03.920 they're saying well um yeah the people should be some bishops are finally saying something but you

00:31:10.860 know what i say about that i'm sorry too little too late you've already let so much damage happen 0.99

00:31:16.580 how about you open your mouth and speak up you cowards you with your abundance of cowardice you 0.98

00:31:21.000 should have said something beforehand instead of wait until now i mean why now why is it taking you 0.99

00:31:26.920 so long silence is cowardice right silence is complicity and they let leo and bergoglio get

00:31:33.960 away with so much for so long and all these other crazy bishops and stuff that are going on and by

00:31:38.660 the way this the whole idea where oh well they're they're letting some people have it yeah you tell

00:31:43.900 me a parish in any diocese that is traditional latin mass that hasn't been relegated to some

00:31:50.180 high school gym or some god-awful uh place there's i'll give you one example do you have time for one

00:31:55.720 example all right right here in the diocese of madison bishop highing saint cecilius is this

00:32:01.380 glorious church where the traditional latin mass was blossoming flourishing people from all over

00:32:09.560 it's a glorious new newly relatively new church he took the latin mass out of there and he relegated

00:32:15.720 it to some horrific venue smaller uglier it's like it kind of looks like a gym sort of i think

00:32:22.780 it was a former gym. I could be wrong on that. But the fact of the matter is, if you believe

00:32:27.940 that that is a mass, a valid mass, and there's a consecration of the body, blood, soul, and divinity

00:32:35.440 of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Messiah, then you would absolutely, as a bishop,

00:32:40.820 want that to take place in the most beautiful possible church that you could find, which is

00:32:46.120 St. Cecilia's. You wouldn't relegate it to that, or you wouldn't, as they did in so many other

00:32:50.920 diocese in McElroy, San Diego, right? The FSSPs were relegated to the world's worst parish,

00:32:57.400 run down, bad side of town, and that's what happens everywhere. So as a way to discourage

00:33:03.280 attendance or minimize attendance in the furthest way possible, so it's very hard to get to, 0.88

00:33:10.280 that's what they do to the traditional Latin mass. Now you're saying, oh, but Father, 0.92

00:33:14.900 some of these bishops are now coming out and sticking up for SSPX. They're saying we should

00:33:19.200 get rid of. Where were you, bishops, when Bergoglio first came out with Traditiones

00:33:24.960 Custodis? Where were you standing up and saying, well, I don't care what you do in your other

00:33:29.140 diocese, but this is my diocese, and in my diocese, the people that are entitled to it and that want

00:33:35.340 it absolutely will have it, and they'll have it in the best church I have. We had one of those,

00:33:40.280 and you remember what happened to him. Yeah, right, exactly right, and what did Rome do,

00:33:45.220 And did any bishops stand by him? No.

00:33:47.280 And you know, when you just saw it, was it this past summer?

00:33:50.380 When he went and all the bishops were there,

00:33:53.060 and he went up and said,

00:33:53.780 you shouldn't have James Martin parading around in your dioceses.

00:33:56.780 And not one bishop said a thing. 1.00

00:33:59.120 These cowards, these vermin cowards. 1.00

00:34:03.720 Oh, gosh. 1.00

00:34:05.100 One day, do you remember what Vigano said?

00:34:08.240 His big breakthrough was, he said,

00:34:09.960 you know, I'm older and I'm going to die soon.

00:34:11.940 And I'm going to stand before Jesus.

00:34:14.240 And he's going to say, you knew something, and you didn't say anything.

00:34:18.080 Every single bishop in this country and around the world knows full well what the truth is,

00:34:24.340 knows the martyrdom of Charles Luongo and his companions,

00:34:28.160 knows the martyrdom of St. Tarsusius, who defended the Holy Eucharist,

00:34:32.560 knows the martyrdom of St. Jose Luis Sanchez del Rio.

00:34:36.160 They all know the martyrs, and those martyrs are going to be at the gate.

00:34:39.600 and Jesus is just going to say

00:34:42.780 going to look down and say

00:34:44.260 well these martyrs died for the true faith

00:34:46.620 but you didn't

00:34:49.060 you tried to crush the faith

00:34:50.540 yeah so I don't 1.00

00:34:52.920 you know I don't

00:34:53.620 these people that are

00:34:54.800 these bishops now are coming out and trying

00:34:56.460 now it's too little too late

00:34:59.140 the damage has been done

00:35:00.560 and it's almost irreversible

00:35:01.960 there will continue to be

00:35:03.800 I think you mentioned earlier

00:35:05.020 before we went on John Henry

00:35:06.380 that far from

00:35:08.700 less people attending SSPX

00:35:11.720 as Rome I'm sure hoped

00:35:12.920 as what evil does

00:35:14.540 more people are now attending

00:35:17.380 because more people now definitively

00:35:19.820 see the absolute

00:35:21.340 rot and apostasy

00:35:22.800 in Rome and in the Vatican

00:35:25.160 and they realize the fruits

00:35:27.580 are in those places

00:35:29.640 where we worship God

00:35:31.160 as God and not turn

00:35:33.560 the altar around and look at people

00:35:35.100 and listen to what people have to say

00:35:37.280 listen, listen, I have not listened to any teenager or any bishop who is teaching contrary

00:35:43.340 to the Catholic truth, which is 2,000 years old. I can go read St. Athanasius, right? There's a good

00:35:49.860 one. Hey, my friends. I just heard about a great Catholic mobile phone company that gives 100% of

00:35:56.660 its profits to traditional Catholic religious orders, monasteries, and Catholic media. And no,

00:36:02.600 i'm not joking they support traditional catholic priests and religious do you even know that every

00:36:09.640 time you make a call send a text or use mobile data your provider earns revenue have you ever

00:36:16.600 thought about where that money goes many companies support causes that conflict with traditional

00:36:56.880 May God bless you.

00:37:26.880 you get people who recognize the truth because it's there into the Latin mass? How do you explain

00:37:33.600 it to them? You've done this to your own parishioners before. What do you say to them? How

00:37:37.700 do you help them? In our heart, God made us this way. In our heart, we seek the truth. And we see

00:37:43.060 that in people who are willing to die for the truth. And that is indeed why martyrs are the

00:37:47.440 blood of the church, the lifeblood, because they have died for the truth. And people see that and

00:37:51.520 say, well, that's what I want to believe in. And here's a perfect example. Remember those

00:37:54.760 and there are 20 guys that were being going to be executed along the beach

00:37:58.880 and by the monkeys they were all dressed in orange one guy was was not a christian and he

00:38:06.480 was so moved by the fact that these men were joyfully going to go to their deaths for the

00:38:11.220 faith that he became christian he said their god is my god and so they killed him too now look at 0.98

00:38:17.680 what's going on with the sspx they're willing to die for their faith right unlike the abundance

00:38:23.920 of coward bishops that locked all the churches during covid unlike the 20 years of billions and 0.99

00:38:29.400 billions and billions of dollars that we've had to pay out for their perversion for their homosexual 0.99

00:38:34.200 perversion and the raping and pillaging of boys that that people can readily see these are the 0.99

00:38:42.000 ones that say no that's a bad idea we're going to stick with the faith and they're willing to die 0.99

00:38:47.140 for it they don't have an abundance of cowardice they have an abundance of courage so now they go

00:38:52.580 Well, you know, everybody, every single church that I've ever been to, that's TLM, has these little red missiles with the Latin words on the left and the English words on the right.

00:39:04.120 And so it's very, very simple to follow along.

00:39:08.180 And here's what, this might help for you to make the final decision.

00:39:11.940 If all these vermin at Vatican II, if all they wanted to do was make the Holy Mass more accessible to the people, 0.53

00:39:19.420 all they had to do was translate every word into English.

00:39:23.560 That's not what they did.

00:39:24.680 For those who are a little nervous about going to the Latin Mass, don't be so lazy.

00:39:29.440 It's your eternal soul.

00:39:31.360 You should be willing to die for the one faith.

00:39:34.980 And now you're complaining, some people do,

00:39:37.160 Oh, I don't want to learn that Latin. I just want it in English.

00:39:40.860 Well, then, if that's all you think your soul is worth, well, good luck.

00:39:44.860 Did that answer your question?

00:39:46.120 It did, Father, in a way only you could.

00:39:48.720 And, Father, I'd ask you your final blessing if you could.

00:39:51.020 Okay. All right.

00:39:53.040 Let us pray.

00:39:53.840 In nomine Patris et Filii, Spiritus Sancti.

00:39:56.260 Amen.

00:39:57.060 Lord be with you.

00:40:28.600 as St. Paul commands us to do.

00:40:30.280 Through the intercession of all the saints and martyrs,
