John Vianney was an incredibly strict confessor, many priests had Jansenist tendencies, and he changed upon reading Alphonsus Liguori’s manual on confession. He then became “the confessor.” He would give massive penances for venial sins. Every Saint Father Isaac mentioned in his talks, I would buy their books/sermons/biographies and each one has been life changing. Also, sweet shirt Anthony.

German name for SSPX = Piusbruderschaft, which was translated as Pius Brotherhood

I was a seminarian in Lisbon Portugal 2012-14.I can tell you very few gâÿ seminarians, but quite a few rainbow 🌈 priest. And it was hard to be traditional.

Happy Thursday, everyone. LET'S GO!

That German Group saw my Substack and freaked out 🤣

I’m in Japan so it’s NO only. If you guys make up 20% of the mass attendance, what were the numbers be if you added in the Byzantine and other eastern rites? As they tend to be fairly conservative as well.

Anthony Stine say, " The Father Matin types!" Or "Those leaning to the McKerrick inclination!" 😅

The strangest confession ive ever had when i came to Canada was an indian priest telling me which was mortal sin and which was venial as i was listing my sins. Never experienced something like that in my 3 decades.

I have always taught my students that confession is all about adjectives-kind and amount.

What is take on Kenrick-Glennon Seminary?

I have been hearing since the mid-1980s that, "this next group of seminarians is gonna' be it!" Meaning, the guys that would restore the Church. Fr. Benedict J. Groeschel and others would say that all the time. And we rank and file didn't even know about Mr. McCarrick back then! I did know a seminarian who snuck into Alfonso Cardinal Stickler's TLM at St. Patrick's Cathedral and served that Mass... It was all very top secret. I'll bet older parishioners at Holy Innocents can tell you stories about that TLM, Anthony. That seminarian is not a priest of NYArch today, and I don't know about anywhere else. The thing about secretly reading other books and getting almost a parallel formation? That's a tough road and, to be honest, I'm sure the seminary officials are wise to it by now. JPII and BXVI operated on an hegelian principle, even though ppl who follow their thinking deny it. That's why for every Burke there is a Kasper. Let's put some good guys AND some bad guys in a room and what happens is what we are going to call, God's will?!? Sadly, I met a lot of guys who were accused abusers as they came through the NYArch on their way to St. Luke's or to reinstatement or laicizatoon. Separate from that, I was connected to about 20 of Cardinal Dolan's list of 120 abusers... and that list isn't complete. Tradition - including the personal embrace of Tradition as it relates to fasting, keeping the ember and rogation days, personal devotions, and scholastic and NOT NOT NOT nouvelle philosophy and theology is the way forward. Any compromise and it's just not going to work. Nick, speaking of discernment and formation and good guys and bad guys... You've talked a lot about your ongoing discernment. In direct response to your contribution to the confession part of this episode, I (and a lot of us, I think) ask you to please include Judges 17 : 10 in your "file" of things to consider and to talk to God and about. Great as always, guys. Important and really edifying and helpful to me, was your discussion on confession.

Great, I fly out of Syracuse in 2 weeks

For these sins and for all of the sins which I cannot remember, particularly against these virtues, I accuse myself, confess, and ask absolution and penance of you, my spiritual father.

Great now I have that song stuck in my head. 😑 thanks. Btw, it’s bonkers that was made for a certain demographic to stop molesting women… seems like it would only have the opposite effect as it is incredibly annoying. Made me think of that recent Jordan Peterson episode with Tommy Robinson. Had no idea it was that bad over there. It. Is. Insane. But this is what happens when you abandon your Christian heritage and faith. A society that has no defense against evil except propagandist stupid songs to sing about your “no-no zone” as if thats the silver bullet to the evil they’ve imported into their liberal culture. 🙄

The one hopeful thing about the genders being so split on politics in Gen Z is that this is still far more conservative than is typical. Most generations start as liberal and grow more conservative with age. If even 40% of Gen Z is right wing and that trend remains, it’s only going to go up as Gen Z marries, ages, and starts dominating politics. Could be sick if played right

Also just a positive note about the conservatism of the priests. I don’t doubt the 80% number is a little slanted by the Overton window or could be weeded down once they become established, but I think it’s hopeful that most priests you see who are popular and successful on social media seem to be pretty conservative. Maybe they shift that Overton window back right in years to come

I am confused about the general confession. When do we go to general confession? Also, if you have sins in you past you’ve committed, doesn’t asking for forgiveness for sins I’ve forgotten or were unaware count under that ? I’m so confused.

The Great Replacement is real. It's having a big effect in the Church and every facet of society

Anthony, There has always been a fight/war in the Church over what issues are the most important, a hierarchy of issues. . Pro-lifers have said abortion is the most important issue.. Cardinal Bernadin said it was a "seamless garment" and there is equal value in issues so immigration or poverty etc would be equal to pro-life issues. I think the Pope follows that road.

I have OCD (much relieved by Luvox), so I definitely tend toward scrupulosity. So, yeah, I remembered that time I stole rootbeer fizzies from the supermarket when I was 14, and I confessed it. I confessed all my youthful mortal sins many years ago, but I still worry about them.

Note: Peter refers to himself an elder among others not the leader or head of the Church. The only representative of GOD on Earth is GOD HIMSELF manifested as the HOLY SPIRIT dwelling in a true believer making them a King and Priest of the true Church which is spiritual not a palace in Rome.
