Above: Archbishop Lefebvre with Pius XII. Lefebvre and other members of the Coetus were respected by the popes before Paul VI, including by John XXIII. There will be factions. This is the first rule of all voting assemblies, from the Roman Senate to the US House of Representatives. To believe that this rule does not…
After the enemies of Trent and the Tridentine Mass – Andrea Grillo and other unknown forces – caused the Holy Father to abrogate himself on the Latin Mass with Traditionis Custodes, the Cardinal Vicar of Rome confirmed in October of 2021 that the Triduum would not be allowed in the city of Rome according to…
Fr. Charles Murr is one of the last living witnesses to Vatican corruption who is both orthodox and courageous. We have many clerics out there – dare I opine “many”! – who are orthodox, but do not have the courage – or perhaps the opportunity? – to speak the truth come what may. Today, we…

In my article, I demonstrate that the ministry of the Society is illegitimate due to its lack of a juridical (or extraordinary) mission, according to divine law and the teaching of the Church. In short, the SSPX is…
“Along came a man sent by God, and his name was Marcel.” The words of the late Catholic apologist Michael Davies in his debate with Dr. E. Michael Jones. The author of this current missive has been given the opportunity to mount a defense in favor of the Society of Saint Pius X (SSPX) and…
Editor’s note: especially in light of the most recent news, we will present a number of installments in this debate as a means to help form the conscience of faithful souls as we face this moment of decision. Let us beseech the Holy Ghost for the gift of Counsel, which guides us in decisions such…
The Horrors of the New Springtime Born a “cradle Catholic” just as the Second Vatican Council (Vatican II) was underway in 1962, I was blessed to grow up in a small Western Montana town that was home to the first Catholic Parish established in Montana Territory.
