Geoffrey K. Mondello, Ed., Boston Catholic Journal
США
Добавлен 1 дек 2023
I have been the editor of the Boston Catholic Journal since its founding over 20 years ago, in 2004. In addition to critical Catholic commentary on significant issues within the Church, we provide a significant audio library of traditional Catholic prayers, devotions, and audio books, together with all 150 Psalms in Latin (all audio files are free and downloadable). We do not, however, stop there: Our website at www.boston-catholic-journal.com/ has provided critical Catholic commentary within the long-established framework of authentic Catholic teaching articulated in both the constant Magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church and within the 2000-year Sacred Tradition to which the Catholic Church is forever bound. This teaching, we believe, is most clearly, and with the greatest certitude, elaborated in what the Catholic Church constantly and unerringly taught before the confusion engendered by, and the crisis of faith subsequent to, Vatican II.
The Most Urgent Question of Our Time
“When the Son of Man Comes, will He Find Faith on Earth?”
No more stunning, … no more incriminating, … and perhaps no more ominously portentous words are spoken in all the Gospels … in fact, in the entire New Testament - perhaps even in the entirety of Sacred Scripture itself; …. words that have become increasingly fraught in significance with every passing year of the most appalling, the most perfidious papacy of Francis - a papacy not just likely but I believe with certainty will be understood not simply as among the worst - but the worst -the most destructive to the Faith and to the Church in the annals of 2000 years of Church history.
Indeed, with every generation following the devasta...

When We Are Prisoners of Our Guilt and Shame
Просмотров 134Месяц назад
Bound by our fears, our shame, all the sins that we have spun around us like winding cloths upon the dead, binding us to the point of paralysis, throttling our voices, covering our eyes, smothering us to life - we are as the living dead. The mess we have made of our lives! All the sins of which we are guilty! The shame that burns on our faces! We dare not approach the exit from the tomb,- dare ...
Vatican II - Failure Proclaimed as Success - A Parable - Part 2

Vatican II has been consistently hailed as a success by the highest echelons eeded perspectivewithin the Church since its inauguration 60 years ago - contrary to the lived experience of Catholics worlwide, and despite every conceivable metric to the contrary: fractional Mass attendance, decimated vocations to the priesthood and Religious Orders, the juggernaut of "consolidated" (i.e. closed) Ch...

Progressives in the Catholic Church
Просмотров 319Месяц назад
Who has not heard, in growing astonishment, virtually every authentic teaching of the Church for 2000 years arrogantly dismissed with an air of learning as though superior to faith itself, by those to whom it has been entrusted and from which, to the applause of the world, they have opted for the laurels of men … instead of the glory of God? Who has not suffered this agony? Who has not suffered...
Power and Prostitution - Selling Our Mother into Shame
Просмотров 1442 месяца назад
None of us, of course, are beyond temptation, especially the temptation to power, however subtle. Where does this particular temptation to exercise power over others come from? Especially in the Church. I would suggest that it is noteworthy that now, in Holy Mother Church - as in the beginning - the evil one again tempts the woman:, first Eve - “the mother of all the living” - but this time he ...
The Third Temptation of Christ the Pathology of Power and Why We Should Tremble Part 2

“And the devil led Him into a high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time; And he said to Him: To Thee will I give all this power, and the glory of them; for to me they are delivered, and to whom I will, I give them.” (St. Luke 4.5-6) Power - in our own lives, no less than in the life of the Church - can be either magnificently redemptive, or, as we have more...

Ecumenism Understood as the New Religion of the Post-Catholic-Conciliar-church
Просмотров 4493 месяца назад
In Ecumenism, it is absolutely vital for us to understand all religions however absurd, illogical, and in manifest contradiction to every other religion are not just “correct,” but are, in a way that defies reason and logic, to say nothing of Divine Revelation, equally true expressions of the “One, True, Religion” - which only becomes understandable when we realize that Ecumenism is the unreser...
We No Longer Bow Our Heads at the Sacred Name of Jesus
Просмотров 2043 месяца назад
It is a sad commentary on our faith and a terrible indictment of the massive and deliberate neglect and subsequent failure of catechesis for the past 70 years since Vatican II … that we no longer so much as bow our heads upon hearing the Name of Jesus - the Sacred Name - let alone bend our knees as we pass before Him in the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Altar. Previous generations were taught s...
Francis and the Collapse of the Ecumenical Project A Grim Reflection on the Legacy of a Steward
Просмотров 3,4 тыс.3 месяца назад
For 10 years now, Francis has attempted to “renovate” a House that was not his, but only placed in his care as a steward. “All are welcome!” in Francis’s new church ... except Latin rite Catholics. ... the unwelcome step-children of Vatican II, the only children not allowed to “walk in accompaniment” with Francis & Friends; a “privilege” reserved to “other” “kinds of” Catholics, non-Catholics, ...
Are We All Children of God No Matter What
Просмотров 1223 месяца назад
Are we all "Children of God" as Francis maintains ... no matter what? Is it really the case that everyone goes to Heaven as Francis claims - despite the magnitude of their malevolence and the enormity of their atrocities? Is Hitler in Heaven? Stalin? Nero? Is Hell really "empty" as Francis would have us believe? Does what Francis teaches and maintains, align with the 2000 year teaching of the C...
Catholicism’s Imminent Passing from Memory
Просмотров 1304 месяца назад
The Catholic Church as history had known it for 2000 years - as it had been lived for two millennia by saints, scholars, sinners, and the simplest of Faith - may soon be recognizable no more. As a distinct entity apart from the world, it may effectively cease to be. This is a staggering statement ... and except for Francis, almost impossible to imagine! Yet, so deeply have things evil leached i...
Are You Prepared To Be Surpised by God - or Francis
Просмотров 884 месяца назад
From what Francis says, he alone is the one, true, enlightened pope to whom God, after 2000 years, finally revealed what Francis himself describes as “the fullness of truth,” which, apparently, had either eluded all his predecessors …. or from whom God chose to conceal the real truth … until the inauguration of pope Francis. It is very much like the arguments that Catholics have ever brought ag...
Loving Our Enemies - How is This Possible
Просмотров 954 месяца назад
Jesus commands us to love our enemies, to do good to those who hate us, to bless those who curse us and who spitefully use us. But how are we to do this? How can we be commanded to love others - especially those whom we intensely dislike? We can scarcely tolerate their presence, and yet Christ would have us love them? The answer to this apparent enigma ... is not in the heart at all ... after all!
