Pitch Perfect Politics

ASK FATHER: A man at work wants to be addressed as a woman. Posted on   27 August 2019   by   Fr. John Zuhlsdorf From a reader… QUAERITUR : Dear Fr. I’m hoping for some advice as to how to charitably and prudently deal with a gender dysphoric coworker without giving a pinch of incense to Jupiter. Specifically, it is likely that I will need to formally enter this person’s name into an official log (e.g. stationed Mr. X as…). What should I write if I don’t know with certainty whether he is actually a man or woman even if I’m reasonably sure he’s a man? And if I do find out with certainty, is it correct to say that I’m morally obligated to write Mr. even if he tells me to write Ms. and risk losing my livelihood over a discrimination claim? I am more than willing to do this, I’m just wondering where the line is. Thanks and God bless. GUEST PRIEST RESPONSE: Fr. Tim Ferguson Ah, our brave new world. Which is, in so many ways, not new at all. History is replete with

This Dorian storm will be Yuge. It will be the biggest storm of any Presidency ever. I told my current wife this morning, what's her face, to imagine this storm as a gigantic drunken harricain name Ike whaling on a peninsula named Tina over a three day holiday weekend. I will be like that only worse. O, and this is the greatest song of all time. It shows some sexy minorities in colorful short dresses.  This should put to rest those accusations that I am a white supremacist. I'd like to see Pocahontas try and dance like this...

Mgr Lefebvre, was a retired (emeritus) bishop with no jurisdiction, that is without any pastoral power over souls, so he could not possibly delegate to anyone a power which he himself no longer possessed. http://www.catholic-hierarchy.org/bishop/blefebvre.html AD APOSTOLORUM PRINCIPIS 40. And when We later addressed to you the letter Ad Sinarum gentem, We again referred to this teaching in these words: The power of jurisdiction which is conferred directly by divine right on the Supreme Pontiff comes to bishops by that same right, but only through the successor of Peter, to whom not only the faithful but also all bishops are bound to be constantly subject and to adhere both by the reverence of obedience and by the bond of unity." Acts requiring the power of Holy Orders which are performed by ecclesiastics of this kind, though they are valid as long as the consecration conferred on them was valid, are yet gravely illicit, that is, criminal and sacrilegious. http:/

Code of Canon Law; Can. 249 The program of priestly formation is to provide that students not only are carefully taught their native language but also understand Latin well and have a suitable understanding of those foreign languages which seem necessary or useful for their formation or for the exercise of pastoral ministry. Sadly, the comments section for this crummy blog is on the fritz and so ABS will respond to the comments here and the responses to the comments will be in the royal purple: While it is technically possible to reveal his sources, ABS is reluctant to do so because his sources as are mysterious as they are enigmatic. As for his remarks about the Latin American Bishops, ABS concedes that there are, no doubt, several whom are capable of speaking in ways that make their meaning clear to a very select curious few in their congregation, but when it comes to Latin - which Canon Law says must be studied - their AtinLay is AdBay. Here is a clip from the seminary in T

Say what you will about The Lil' Licit Liturgy but at least there are no longer sheep, goats, or donkeys wandering around in the sanctuary eating the Holy Eucharist. DE DEFECTIBUS Pope Paul V, Council of Trent     ON DEFECTS THAT MAY OCCUR IN THE CELEBRATION OF MASS I - Defects of the Missing 1. The priest who is to celebrate Mass should take every precaution to make sure that none of the things required for celebrating the Sacrament of the Eucharist is missing. A defect may occur with regard to the matter to be consecrated, with regard to the form to be observed and with regard to the consecrating minister. There is no Sacrament if any of these is missing: the proper matter, the form, including the intention, and the priestly ordination of the celebrant. If these things are present, the Sacrament is valid, no matter what else is lacking. There are other defects, however, which may involve sin or scandal, even if they do not impair the validity of the Sacrament.  II - Defec

CELAM (pronounced celam) is The Episcopal Conference of the Catholic Bishops of Latin America - that place where nobody speaks Latin; especially inept in Latin are the Latin American Bishops. CELAM is expected to petition Pope Francis, and by Pope Francis ABS means our own home grown Doctrinal Terrorist, for permission to increase the number of Eucharistic prayers so as to equal the different varieties of potatoes to be found in Peru, Bolivia, and Ecuador. There are, roughly, 4000 different kinds of  many of which are handy as food                      or ammunition for a Spudzooka CELAM is confident that the Doctrinal Terrorist will approve their petition because Francis is not unlike former POTUS George Bush, the Fredo Corleone of the Bush family mob.

You didn't get me Ariel for my Birthday like I told you to. I hate you  Granddad !!!

Amoris Laetitia is an indefensible defense of Adultery and that Papal Product lies about the nature of  Adultery and its consequences. The malign musings and mendacious machinations of The Bishop of Rome are evil eruptions from Hell and represent an indelible stain (what, you think he will repent and reform?) on his Papacy and endangers all of us because his novelties are as noxious as they are  infamous and the acceptance and toleration of this grave evil significantly weakness the Body of Christ and calls down upon us all Judgment and punishment. Parts of A.L. are eruptions from Hell, especially beginning in Chapter 8 but ABS will only highlight a few sections of it to show just how cavalier he is about mortal sin and, worse, how he tries to tell the Church that God approves of some parts of Adultery. This wickedness must not be allowed to stand... 301. For an adequate understanding of the possibility and need of special discernment in certain “irregular” situa
