Protestantism is collapsing



The Quiet, Sad Erasure of the Legacy of Rush Hudson Limbaugh lIl

He was a Midwest college dropout who was "a wandering shred of human debris" until his late thirties when he was picked up by New York's 770 WABC Radio in 1988 in time for the Bush/Dukakis race. For several years, he would host separate NY and National shows until they merged in the nineties. The early shows were where he showed his independence the most. He thought nothing of mocking sodomites. And who could forget the show's Caller Abortion? Instead of muting the caller and quietly hanging up on them like say, Patrick Madrid, he played the audio of a vacuum cleaner concluding with a faint scream which he always denied hearing. 

 Here was a man raised a Methodist and buried in a Masonic plot who used to take pro-Life cruises with Cardinal O'Connor  and  was personal friends with Malachi Martin. He seriously entertained thoughts of converting but wondered what hinderance two divorces (at the time) would present. By the time of the Gulf War, he was reliably in the Neo-Con/Zionist camp although he did endorse Pat Buchanan in the 1992 primary much to the consternation of those trying to control him. There were similarities in later years with his support of Donald Trump. 

Was anyone else heard on the radio by this many people since Fr. Coughlin (another voice that had to be controlled)? But what was his legacy?    Tim Kelly has repeatedly pointed out that he drove liberals crazy mocking them and made millions of dollars doing it from the millions who listened but did he even slow the country's leftward slide?

Now, he's gone and replaced by an even more controlled opposition:  A CIA trained company man and a  remote sidekick who can't go five minutes without saying "to your point," "no doubt," or "I have three boys."

Don’t talk in Church, Peasants

You’ll never know just how you look through other people’s eyes.


Edit: seems so simple, but even in your below-average trad chapel, there are people, usually women, blabbing about the mindless trivialities of their bourgeois existences after Mass in the nave, irrespective of the people making their thanksgiving. It’s unspeakably rude, but it’s also sinful and demonstrates a profoundly disordered attitude. Perhaps their motivation isn’t unity with the Divine, but more nefarious things? 

Usually, it’s old boomers who may not see one another again before the next Mass. At times, I think, well, maybe they’ll never see one another again, since it’s obvious to everyone they are such close friends. Still, why not go outside or go to the parking lot. I still remember old farmers standing and talking outside of the brutalist church in Lake Wilson, in the rain, for hours.

I’ve posted about this a few times. It’s nice to see Father Ripperger speak so forcefully about it! Perhaps he’s not so bad after all?

Is the future of Orthodox Catholicism chocolate?

Satanic “Minister” Gives Invocation in Nevada




RENO, Nev. (TND) — A Nevada governing body on Tuesday opened its meeting with a religious ceremony by a local Satanist group. Reno Satanic, a “non-theistic” Satanist group, delivered an invocation before the Washoe County Commission which began with a chant in Latin.

“In the name of the eternal revel against tyrannical authority,” Reno Satanic founder Jason Miller began.

 “To bring influence and guiding actions of nobility and justice to the decisions made in this chamber today. To act with might in the undertaking of responsibility that may lay ahead of this body before us today. The new age is dawning that these decisions may play a role in.”

Declaration of Catholic Faith to the Holy Father

Edit: this is from the Society’s main page. Just thought it was important to have it available here.


Declaration of Catholic Faith


May 14th, 2026

**addressed to His Holiness Pope Leo XIV by Fr. Davide Pagliarani, Superior General of the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X**

Most Holy Father,

For more than fifty years, the Society of Saint Pius X has endeavoured to set before the Holy See a matter of conscience in the face of the errors that are destroying Catholic faith and morals. Regrettably, all the discussions entered into have remained without result, and none of the concerns expressed have received any truly satisfactory response.

For more than fifty years, the only solution truly considered by the Holy See has appeared to be that of canonical sanctions. To our great regret, it seems to us that canon law is thus being used, not to confirm in the Faith, but to lead away from it.

In the text that follows, the Society of Saint Pius X is glad to express to You, filially and sincerely, its devotion to the Catholic Faith, concealing nothing, either from Your Holiness or from the Universal Church.

The Society places this simple Declaration of Faith in Your hands. It seems to us to correspond to the minimum indispensable to be in communion with the Church, and to truly call ourselves Catholics and, consequently, your sons.

We have no other desire than that of living and being confirmed in the Roman Catholic Faith.

“Thus, remaining firmly rooted and established in the true Catholic Faith, strive always to be worthy ministers of the divine Sacrifice and of the Church of God, which is the Body of Christ. For, as the Apostle says: ‘all that is not of faith is sin’, ^1 schismatic and outside the unity of the Church.” ^2

### DECLARATION OF CATHOLIC FAITH

In the Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ, divine Wisdom, the Word Incarnate, Who willed one sole religion, Who rendered the Old Covenant definitively null and void, Who founded one sole Church, Who triumphed over Satan, Who conquered the world, Who remains with us until the end of time and Who shall come again to judge the living and the dead.

He, the perfect Image of the Father, the Son of God made man, was appointed the sole Redeemer and Saviour of the world through the Incarnation and the voluntary offering of the Sacrifice of the Cross. Our Lord satisfied divine justice by shedding His Most Precious Blood, and it is in that Blood that He established the New and Eternal Covenant, abolishing the Old. He is therefore the sole Mediator between God and men and the sole way to come to the Father. Only he who knows Him knows the Father.

By divine decree, the Most Holy Virgin Mary has been directly and intimately associated with the entire work of Redemption; to deny this association — in the terms received from Tradition — is therefore to alter the very notion of Redemption as willed by divine Providence.

There is only one Faith and one Church by which we may be saved. Outside the Roman Catholic Church, and without the profession of Faith that she has always taught, there is neither salvation nor remission of sins.

Consequently, every man must be a member of the Catholic Church in order to save his soul, and there is but one baptism as the means of being incorporated into her. This necessity concerns the whole of humanity without exception and embraces without distinction Christians, Jews, Muslims, pagans, and atheists.

The mandate received by the Apostles, to preach the Gospel to every man and to convert every man to the Catholic Faith, remains binding until the end of time and responds to the most absolute and most pressing necessity in the world. “He that believeth and is baptized, shall be saved: but he that believeth not shall be condemned.” ^3 Therefore, to renounce the fulfilment of this mandate constitutes the gravest of crimes against humanity.

The Roman Church alone possesses simultaneously the four marks that characterize the Church founded by Jesus Christ: Unity, Holiness, Catholicity, and Apostolicity.

Her unity flows essentially from the adherence of all her members to the one true Faith, faithfully preserved, taught, and handed down by the Catholic hierarchy throughout the centuries.

The denial of even a single truth of the Faith destroys faith itself and renders radically impossible all communion with the Catholic Church.

The only possible path to restoring unity among Christians of different confessions consists in the urgent and charitable appeal addressed to non-Catholics to profess the one true Faith within the one true Church.

The Catholic Church can in no way be regarded or treated on an equal footing with a false form of worship or a false church.

The Roman Pontiff, the Vicar of Christ, is the sole possessor of supreme authority over the whole Church. He alone directly confers on the other members of the Catholic hierarchy jurisdiction over souls.

“The Holy Ghost was not promised to the successors of Peter that they might make known, by His revelation, a new doctrine, but that, by His assistance, they might inviolably keep and faithfully expound the revelation transmitted by the Apostles, that is, the Deposit of the Faith.” ^4

To a unique Faith there corresponds a unique form of worship, the supreme, authentic, and perfect expression of that same Faith.

The Holy Mass is the perpetuation in time of the Sacrifice of the Cross, offered for many and renewed upon the altar. Although offered in an unbloody manner, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is essentially expiatory and propitiatory. No other form of worship offers perfect adoration. No other form of worship that is not ordered to it is pleasing to God. No other means is sufficient for the sanctification of souls.

Consequently, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass can in no way be reduced to a mere commemoration, to a spiritual meal, to a sacred assembly celebrated by the people, to the celebration of the Paschal mystery without sacrifice, without satisfaction of divine justice, without expiation of sins, without propitiation, and without the Cross.

The help afforded to souls by the Sacraments of the Catholic Church is sufficient in every circumstance and in every age to enable the faithful to live in a state of grace.

The moral law contained in the Decalogue and perfected in the Sermon on the Mount is the only one practicable for obtaining the salvation of souls. Every other moral code — founded, for example, on respect for creation or on the rights of the human person — is radically insufficient to sanctify and save souls. In no way can it replace the one true moral law.

Following the example of St. John the Baptist, true charity obliges us to warn sinners and never to renounce the means necessary to save their souls.

He who eats the Body of Our Lord and drinks His Blood whilst in a state of sin eats and drinks his own condemnation, and no authority can alter this law contained in the teaching of St. Paul and in Tradition.

Sins of impurity that are against nature are of such gravity that they always and in every circumstance cry to God for vengeance, and are radically incompatible with every form of authentic Christian love. Such a ‘lifestyle’ can therefore in no way be recognized as a gift from God. A couple practising this vice must be helped to free themselves from it, and can in no way be blessed — formally or informally — by ministers of the Church.

The submission of institutions and nations, as such, to the authority of Our Lord Jesus Christ flows directly from the Incarnation and the Redemption. Therefore, secularism of institutions and nations constitutes an implicit denial of the divinity and universal kingship of Our Lord.

Christendom is not a mere historical phenomenon, but the only order willed by God among men.

It is not for the Church to conform herself to the world, but for the world to be transformed by the Church.

It is in this Faith and in these principles that we ask to be instructed and confirmed by Him Who has received the charism to do so. With the help of Our Lord, we would rather die than renounce them. It is in this immutable Faith that we desire to live and die, in the hope that it may give way to the direct vision of the immutable eternal Truth.

The Benedict Resignation is Being Talked About

 Edit: we cited /our/ Hilary back in the day about the Vatican payment portal, Stripe being shut down. This story isn’t dying like we thought it would, and now Podesta is implicated. Gänswein is even talking damage control at Info Vaticana.

Of course, lots of people you wouldn’t expect are lining up to discredit Liftesite and Henry Westen. I’ve always liked Lifesite over the years, because unlike commerce websites like 1p5, it wasn’t focused on an outlandish Steve Skojec or some other weirdo, but on information about things that were happening, you know, informative.

Formative Experiences for New Red Pope

Commie Prylest circled in Red at a protest organized by Italy’s Communist Party 

Edit: Chris used to be a contributor at Remnant along with the judaizing Joseph d’Hippolito. I guess his take on Pope Prylest was too hot to handle. 

 [Chris Jackson] This week’s image was the old photograph of young Robert Prevost in 1983, marching in Comiso, Sicily, in protest against the Cruise missiles installed under Ronald Reagan. That protest was organized by the Italian Communist Party. The old photograph fits the man now sitting in Rome with unnerving precision. It looks like an early disclosure.

Plenty of men did foolish things in youth. Plenty of old photos deserve to stay old. This one does not. This one matters because the instincts visible in the background of that march have never really left the stage. The moral vocabulary may be dressed up now in ecclesiastical language. The slogans may be softened into “peace,” “dialogue,” “encounter,” and “the Gospel.” The old left-wing reflex is still there all the same. Suspicion of the West. Suspicion of political realism. Suspicion of force even in the face of aggression. Moral preening in place of judgment. Humanitarian abstraction where Catholic order should stand.

Conservatives who spent the first weeks of this pontificate soothing themselves with the thought that Leo would somehow be a corrective to Francis now have to deal with a problem they cannot laugh away. The old photo has explanatory power. It helps make sense of the present.

Pope Leo Condemns Urban II


Edit: you’d think Leo would have something more nuanced to say about the situation, especially since he’s supposed to be so educated. In his current bromides, he attacks his predecessors of unhappy memory, namely Urban II and Julius II, among many others. I’m sure he’s have wagged his finger at Pius IX defending Rome against the Freemasons. Leo likes to attack Catholic teaching and cozy up to rainbow celebrity figures like James Martin, but he never condemned Iran for massacring its own civilians and exporting terror abroad. One wonders why he is striving so mightily to justify the murderous government of Algeria and Islam (pbui)…

Obviously, Christopher “fail” Hale loves Francis II and is complaining bitterly. How dare he criticize our Liberal Pontiff and the holy globohomisms!

Can we get our own Pope in there? This one is a far cry from Leo XIII who justly criticizing the military buildup leading up to the fratricidal Great War.

[Chrissy Hale] Vance walked onto a Turning Point USA stage in Phoenix this evening, defended the Trump administration’s bombing campaign as a Christian act, and got heckled by his own crowd. 

“How can you say that God was never on the side of those who wield the sword,” the vice president asked, mid-defense of American military strikes — and a young man in the audience shouted back the only correct answer a Christian could give: “Jesus doesn’t support genocide.”
