“Do-It-Yourself” Bishop Factory: Fr. Michael Mary, founder and superior of the Transalpine Redemptorists at Papa Stronsay, Scotland, declared himself a sedevacantist on May 7. Today, he was consecrated as a sedevacantist bishop in the dubious Thục line. The "consecration" was performed by Bishop Pierre Roy, with Bishops Rodrigo Ribeiro da Silva and Fernando Altamira serving as "co-consecrators".
Today, Father Michael Mary, F.S.S.R., was consecrated a sede-bishop by sede-bishop Pierre Roy. The co-consecrators are sede-bishops Rodrigo Ribeiro da Silva and Fernando Altamira.
I haven't follow Archbishop Vigano for awhile now. Has it been fully and completely proven he was ordained by Bishop Williamson? I haven't noticed. But I hope he wasn't.
Today, Fr Michael Mary, superior of the sedevacantist Transalpine Redemptorists in Scotland, will be consecrated as an alleged bishop. Katholisch.de traced the long and tangled succession lines of schismatic bishops, focusing primarily on the lines of Marcel Lefebvre (1905-1991) and Pierre Martin Ngô Đình Thục (1897–1984). Here are the key points:. Lefebvre line (FSSPX) Among the different splinter groups, only the SSPX has significant size. In 1988, Lefebvre consecrated Alfonso de Galarreta, Bernard Fellay, Bernard Tissier de Mallerais, and Richard Williamson as bishops. All four later consecrated additional bishops. In 1991, Tissier de Mallerais consecrated Licínio Rangel for the Priestly Union of St. John Mary Vianney, Brazil. Rangel and his community reconciled with Rome in 2002 and became an Apostolic Personal Administration. The same year Fernando Arêas Rifan became Rangel's coadjutor, but he was consecrated by Cardinal Darío Castrillón Hoyos, with Rangel serving only as co-…Daha çox
I used to wonder how the consecration requested by Our Lady of Fatima, in unison with all the Bishops of the world could ever take place since bishops are all over the place with their beliefs. Then I realized as these bishops ascend to heresy, they are no longer bishops so it may end up being some sede, bishops, SSPX and a few good sons of the church left in the NO. There is the manageable number.
Munich Liturgical Controversy Goes Around the Globe: Many Catholic media outlets across the globe - in English, French, Polish, Spanish, Italian, etc. - are reporting on the latest liturgical abuse from the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising. The case centers on a Mass for the feast of St. Mary Magdalene, where Auxiliary Bishop Wolfgang Bischof delivered a "dialogue homily" together with laywoman Theresia Reischl, despite the Holy See's recent reaffirmation that the homily during Mass is reserved to an ordained minister. The celebration also featured liturgical dancing and balloons, further fueling criticism.

He is particularly critical of the community's leader at the time, Father Ramón Angles, whom he portrays as an authoritarian priest with extremist ideological views. Massett accuses him of fostering a culture of intimidation, public humiliation, and fear. Later in the article, he discusses abuse allegations against Angles, citing investigations by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI), testimonies from former students, and the case of an alleged victim who later died by suicide. At the same time, the article notes that Angles, through his attorney, has categorically denied all allegations.
Did you know that there were Catholic Samurais? Meet Justo Ukon Takayama. He was a feudal lord and samurai in 16th-century Japan. When the Shogun banned Christianity, Takayama refused to renounce his faith. He abandoned his status, wealth, and samurai position, choosing exile and poverty over apostasy. He is now a Blessed in the Catholic Church, on the path to being declared a saint.
Catholicism enhances cultures. Perfects them. This is the only reason our Lord would allow "colonization". And as our Lady of Guadalupe reminds us, she keeps colonization on the right track.
