A letter from a victim of liturgical violence


This is a letter I received from a Catholic woman in Florida. My comments are in red.

It's been rough days over here.  I don't know what's going on over there regarding the corona virus and the Eucharist, but local priests over here are taking advantage of the caution being asked for by the bishop and are refusing to give Holy Communion on the tongue.  In our two local parishes we have been forbidden to receive on the tongue. I ended up receiving the Precious Blood instead. 
Which is curious because in that diocese the Bishop asked that communion be given only in the form of the Body of Christ and that the fundamental doctrine that the whole of Christ, body, blood, soul and divinity are received under the species of his body - the consecrated host.   

 I spoke with the chancery at the bishop's office yesterday and asked him if this was allowed.  He said that the bishop never revoked the right to receive on the tongue.  He told me to discuss this with the priest and offer to receive at the end of the line if that would make him feel better.  When I asked the priest this morning, I was yelled at, literally, and told flat out that he didn't care who I spoke with at the diocese, he was not given communion on the tongue and that I shouldn't be asking for it, it was selfish to insist on it, that I was being disobedient, that it was the same thing to receive in the hand as on the tongue, etc, etc..  This is a priest who I have been praying for every day because he is so influential in the diocese (he organizes the annual diocesan priests' retreats and speaks for the diocese on any televised programs).  He's actually a wonderful priest in so many ways, but this happens to be a sore spot.  
Because of this, I am organizing a petition to bring to Bishop [REDACTED] asking him if he could make it clear on the diocesan webpage that communion on the tongue has not been revoked and that we do have the right to receive that way.  Archbishop Sample did a similar thing.  Unfortunately there are bishops who are actually ordering that Communion on the tongue be stopped immediately.  WHICH AGAIN IS CURIOUS BECAUSE COMMUNION ON THE TONGUE IS MORE HYGIENIC.  PROPERLY GIVEN THE PRIEST'S FINGERS NEVER TOUCH THE TONGUE.  THE HANDS HOWEVER HAVE BEEN HANDLING ALL SORTS OF OBJECTS AND TOUCHING PEOPLE AND ARE FULL OF GERMS.   

Who saw this coming??  It seems incredibly orchestrated throughout Europe and the US.  THE MENTALITY IS "DON'T LET A GOOD CRISIS GO TO WASTE".  THE MODERNIST CLERGY USE THIS AS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR LITURGICAL TERRORISM TO FORCE THEIR BAD IDEAS ON THE FAITHFUL.  THEIR FAKE THEOLOGY HAS BEEN EXPOSED THEY CAN'T WIN AN ARGUMENT SO THEY JUST TRY TO IMPOSE THEIR WILL.  

It just so happens that Cardinal Sarah just wrote a preface to a book titled, "The Distribution Of Communion On The Hand: A Historical, Juridical And Pastoral Survey".  https://www.catholicworldreport.com/2018/03/06/critics-misrepresent-cardinal-sarahs-call-for-reverence-in-receiving-holy-communion/

May God have mercy on us!

5 Razones por qué un sacerdote debe usar una sotana o “cuello romano”

Imagen
Fotos de Jesuitas usando sotanas. Aquí estudiantes polacos.. 1.       Una razón ontológica: Con su ordenación sacerdotal un hombre se cambia ontológicamente. Aun la Compañía de Jesús en uno de sus documentos nuevos, para justificar el hecho que muchos sacerdotes jesuitas no ejercen su sacerdocio pastoral o sacramentalmente, defendía la proposición tradicional del cambió ontológico . a. Uno es o no es sacerdote, no hay una tercera opción con su ordenación hay un cambio ontológico. Una objeción puede ser que el uso del hábito es un accidente y no cambia el ser sacerdotal del cura. Es verdad, pero hay accidentes que conviene y otros que no conviene.  b. La pureza del corazón es el equivalente espiritual del principio de no-contradicción. La pureza del corazón no admite deseos que son y no son a la vez. El sacerdote que vive su sacerdocio con pureza de corazón quiere que todos los accidentes, los variables no-esenciales, son coherentes con su ser...

¿ES VALIDO AFIRMAR QUE LA TRADICIONAL ES “MISA IDEOLÓGICA” Y POR TANTO REPROBABLE?

Imagen
En una conversación desagradable, escuché recientemente varios sofismas utilizados contra la Misa Tradicional (Misa de Juan XXIII): ■ que es una Misa ideológica, ■ que los que asisten son de la “extrema derecha” ■ y que es una misa “elitista”.           Pero me parece que más que argumentos bien pensado se trata de una serie de acusaciones a partir de diversos prejuicios sin peso real. Veamos… 1.    Una misa “ideológica”, sería aquella celebración en la que participan personas de una determinada ideología. Si asistir a Misa “Tradicional”, fuera fruto de una determinada ideología, sería reprobable, según nos dicen. Come ven, implícita o explícitamente están acusando a la Misa tradicional de ser  reprobable… 2.    Es una Misa asistida generalmente por católicos de la “extrema derecha”. La premisa oc ulta es que los católicos de la “extrema derecha” son un peligro y deben ser reprimidos. Luego l...

 From Fr. Z: QUAERITUR: Are priests required to wear clerical dress at all times? Posted on 15 November 2012 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf From a reader: Are preist required to wear them at all times? Im sure you’ve been asked this before. I’m a new reader I cant find the answer on your blog. I’ve tried for two months. Can you answer or refer me to it? Thank you. P.S I really like your site. I have indeed written about this. No… and yes. I’ll explain. First, let it be said that  there is a relationship between  habitus   (dress) and  habitus  (character, disposition) .   This is one reason why Holy Church does lay down some guidelines for priests without making them iron-clad dictates.  They are for the good of the priest himself and for the good of the Catholic people and for the good of society as a whole. At all times?  Let’s make some distinctions.  When I, a cleric, put on clothing, it is therefore c...
