CATHOLIC BELLATOR

Why Are Catholics Leaving the Faith? This Brave Priest Reveals the Dangerous Culprit by  Fr. Bill Peckman  -  June 24, 2019 I have seen more than a few articles as of late as to why our last three generations have been leaving the Catholic faith en masse. There are many cognizant points. As a pastor of 22 years, a member of one of those generations that departed, and a person who did leave as young man into agnosticism, I have my own theories based on my own experiences and what I have seen and read from others. The first culprit is that we forgot the transcendent. Check that…we actively excoriated it from our identity. This happened in several ways. First, we tamed God. We made Him into our image. We turned him into a kindly and ineffectual therapist whose chief job is to enable our every behavior and pat us on the back for rebelling against Him. With such a tamed God, there was no need to focus on Him. The concept of personal sin went away and...

Do you know or have you ever heard of  " Churching of Women "   ? I HAVEN'T! This " Churching of Women "  was tweeted and pointed out by Dr Taylor Marshall on twitter.  So many beautiful traditions are hidden from us!  If you're a Catholic mother, did your Catholic priest offer to you the traditional rite of  "Churching of Women"  after you gave birth to your child(ren)? The "Churching of Women" is a traditional liturgy whereby a new mother is welcomed back to church by the priest and expresses her gratitude for surviving the pains of Eve. It was something left behind after Vatican II. An  FSSP  priest have performed it for his (Dr Taylor Marshall) wife every time. What is more surprising to me (felt robbed!) is that after watching this video, I don't think I was, nor the Novus Ordo church even do this kind of baptism! I'm talking about  'Traditional Baptism'  - being exorcised, using blessed salt, and utte...

This is well worth your time listening to.  Excellent video! A new religion is being created to replace the Catholic Church. This is the main reason why we are doing this 54-Day Novena and the  40-day fasting and prayer requested by Cdl Burke and Bp. Athanasius. Today is the feast or Our Lady of La Salette.  What she revealed to us materializes before our eyes in our time.  "Up, ye children of light, and fight or behold, the age of ages, the end, the extremity is at hand! The Church passes into darkness. The world will be in a state of consternation, perplexity and confusion." -Our Lady of La Salette We have an obligation.  You and I. We all have an obligation to defend the Holy Catholic faith.Pray and fast my friends! "Christ’s Mystical Body the Church is under ferocious attack which can only be overcome through prayer and fasting (Mk 9, 29). Please join today the crusade of 40 days of prayer and fasting for love of Christ and of His Church....

Today is Day 1 of ‘Crusade of Prayer and Fasting’ By  Bree A. Dail The intentions for this 40-day “crusade,” announced last week by Cardinal Raymond Burke and Bishop Athanasius Schneider, are focused on the upcoming Amazonian Synod. Leaders of an international movement known as the  Holy League of Nations  have pledged their support, prayers and sacrifice, in response to a call from Cardinal Raymond Burke and Bishop Athanasius Schneider. As  reported last week  by Edward Pentin, Cardinal Burke and Bishop Schneider submitted an  eight-page document  imploring the faithful to join with them in 40 days of prayer and fasting. The intentions for this “crusade” were focused on the upcoming Amazon Synod, and clearly stated concerns that “theological errors and heresies inserted in the instrumentum laboris may not be approved during the synodal assembly.” Also included in the intentions for this prayer crusade was that “Pope Franci...
