The Anti-Latin Mass Motu Proprio In Context

The Anti-Latin Mass Motu Proprio In Context

 

In this video, I do a quick rewind of history back to 1965, the end of Vatican II, the appearance of Humanae Vitae and its widespread rejection, as a way of framing the appearance of the Traditiones Custodes by Francis.

This is not merely an attack on the Latin language of nice vestments, but a full-scale assault on the ties that bind Catholics of today with the deposit of faith “delivered once to the saints” (Jude 1:3).

TOPICS COVERED

  • Why the year 1965 was a turning point in Church culture and world history.
  • How the weak leadership of Pope Paul VI failed to stem the tide of dissent and confusion that flooded into the  Church in the decade and a half after the Vatican closed.
  • No one—no lay movement, no organization of clergy—was clamoring for the destruction of the Traditional Latin Mass
  • The possible connections between the New World Order and the Novus Ordo Missae
  • How the Extraordinary Form Latn Mass is a powerful inducement to conversion and true worship.
  • The lack of discipling of wayward clergy on the matter of birth control led to a softening of the Catholic ground and introduced the present state of chaos.
  • Why the Traditional Latin Mass is making a comeback.

#240: Seminarian Files Massive Lawsuit Against Dolan—Ray Belair

#240: Seminarian Files Massive Lawsuit Against Dolan—Ray Belair

This one is huge. Pastorally, it has profound implications for corrupt seminary rectors and their bishop bosses. Financially, it is the highest of its kind in US history.

The plaintiff is former Archdiocese of New York seminarian Anthony Gorgia. The defendants are Timothy Cardinal Dolan of New York, Fathers Peter Harmon and Adam Park (the rector and vice-rector of the North American College respectively, Father John McDonald, and over two dozen John Does. You can read the formal Complaint in the link below.

This is about the cover-up of sexual perversion, grooming, and the spiritual abuse of vulnerable seminarians. It’s not rare for a seminarian to be ousted from a seminary for bogus reasons, which can further result in the loss of a vocation because of corrupt Church bureaucrats.  What is rare is when a seminarian decides to push back and fight the corruption in the courts.

Enter the courageous Anthony Gorgia, represented by New York attorney Raymond Belair who joins me for this week’s important episode of The Patrick Coffin Show.

In this Episode You Will Learn

  •  The backstory to the Gorgia case
  •  The names of all the relevant players end this outrageous scandal
  • Why does case is of historic importance to the Catholic Church in America
  •  The plight of heterosexual theologically orthodox seminarians today
  • The documentable lies told by Gorgia’s superiors to justify his ouster
  •  The bishops implicated in the cover-up, and the ongoing silence
  •  Disturbing details about a reported gay orgy involving Harmon and then sitting Bishop of Springfield Illinois, George Lucas
  • How the Vatican provides a well-oiled runaround machine that stonewalls, denies, and wears down complainants—and why the Anthony Gorgia case is different

POINTS COVERED

  • There is no substitute for the vital connection between the ideas of an author and the mind of a reader.
  • According to Mortimer Adler, an author is like the pitcher, and he’s throwing balls at you the catcher-reader with each sentence, each paragraph, each chapter.  To properly engage a pitcher, a catcher can’t crouch there passively because he’ll either get hit by a fastball — or a curveball will miss him altogether.

#239: Weak Bishops & “Calf Lick” Politicians— Michael Voris

Michael Voris leads a 60+ team at Church Militant, which grows by the week. There is no controversy, no taboo topic, and no deference to religious office for its own sake that Voris fears to confront. The four-time regional Emmy Award winner parlayed an education at Notre Dame and an STD degree from Rome online into a mighty Catholic lay apostolate. Don’t like his tone? “Boo-hoo,” he retorts.

In this Episode You Will Learn

  • The origin of the term “personally opposed but”
  • The dark influence of the late Robert Drinan, SJ, on the Kennedy family’s approach to abortion and other matters in politics
  • Why 1965 was a critical year for Catholics in America and how contraception led to abortion
  • How the post-Vatican II formation of bishops guided them along the path of shyness, mushiness, and almost infinite tolerance of heresy and dissent
  • Specifics of the crisis of eucharistic catechesis and the misplaced stress on “not weaponizing Jesus”
  • How the high proportion of homosexuals in Church leadership colors policy, direction (or lack thereof), and cover-up of sexual misdeeds

#238: Ex-POW Remembers Father Emil Kapaun—Col. Mike Dowe

The stories he loves to tell the most are about the priest he credits with keeping him (Dowe) and many hundreds of others alive during their unimaginable years of trial and deprivation at the hands of the communists.

And that is Father Emil Kapaun (pronounced “kaPAUN” if you knew him, “KAYpin” if you live in Wichita). A Pilsen KS farm boy who became a parish priest, then a US army chaplain during World War II, young Father Emil would spend his final months treating the wounded and serving GIs in combat zones—and in the concentration camp north of the Yalu where he died of pneumonia and other debilitations on May 23, 1951.

Named Servant of God by St. John Paul II in 1993 and posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Honor in 2013, Kapaun was the subject of my monologue episode #225 of The Patrick Coffin Show (see the link below). 

In 1954, witness to Kapaun’s holiness Mike Dowe wrote the moving account of being in the same extreme conditions with Father Kapaun for The Saturday Evening Post in 1954, which introduced the heroic chaplain to the American reading public.

But this interview is no dry historic record or tidbits of theology.  It is a slice of living history for both the US Military and the Catholic Church. The nonagenarian Col. Mike Dowe is one of the last two living links to the great Father Emil Kapaun. His riveting story deserves to be heard.

In this Episode You Will Learn

  • First-hand personal anecdotes about a future saint 
  • The electrifying news that Father Kapaun’s remains were found in a military cemetery in Hawaii in December 2020
  • The specific ways this heroic chaplain kept hope alive in men who were weakened by war, and sick with debilitating diseases in the camp
  • Examples of how the chaplain treated non-Catholic fellow prisoners and why he was universally revered as a source of comfort and strength
  • The life lessons Kapaun offers for those undergoing trials and tribulations
  • Why Dowe believes Father Kapaun should be canonized as a martyr for the Faith.
