A 1987 interview with Archbishop Lefebvre, which reveals his mind prior to the 1988 consecrations.
"Today however, it is the Faith itself which is at stake. I sense that the ‘conciliar’ Church changes and places the very centre of the Catholic Faith in danger. For this reason obedience is no longer possible; for even the Pope does not have the power to change the Faith, he is but a servant of the Faith. To accept Religious Liberty, Ecumenism, the Conciliar Reforms, would appear to me to be contributing to the ‘auto-demolition’ of the Church. In conscience, that is not possible for me. The Liberalism of the Pope is destroying the Catholic Faith from within."

“If it is my duty, I will consecrate bishops”

Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre uttered those words 38 years ago, when asked about the possibility of illicit episcopal consecrations by the Society of St. Pius X.
Today, the two remaining Bishops of the Society of Saint Pius X are facing the same dilemma that Archbishop Lefebvre faced nearly 40 years ago, as so far, there is no indication that Rome will grant permission for consecrations to be held in the near future.

The following is an English translation of a 1987 interview in which journalists from the Italian journal Trenta Giorni asked Archbishop Lefebvre about his intentions. It was first published by the Australian traditionalist publication, Catholic, in July 1987, Issue #55 and is reproduced here with permission. It is prefaced with its original introduction by the editors of Catholic.

Peter Kwasniewski, High Church modernism and Occultism. Part I

Dr. Peter Kwasniewski is a well-known North American writer on traditional Catholic liturgy. But he is also implacably committed to an esoteric religiosity that most traditional Catholics would be horrified by. Indeed twenty-five years ago, the esoteric, occultist version of traditional Catholicism that he and his network of writers have established barely existed. Yet traditional Catholicism was alive and well then, and a quarter of a century before that.
Esoteric, “High Church modernism” has not come from the traditionalist priests or faithful, but from networks of publishers like Angelico Press, who deliberately marketed occultist works alongside the most orthodox Catholic books in order to enter a “market” and proselytise it. It is only fair to people dismayed by the post-Vatican II crisis in the Church to inform them of how, under cover of opposition to one kind of change, an even more radical change is introduced.

It is more than likely that we will have to endure Pope Leo for at least another twenty years, a fact which puts the very status of the conservative Catholic commentators in jeopardy. The prospect of a long period of reading and watching dozens of webcasters displaying higher and higher levels of shock and horror, all with doubtful effect, is a very gloomy one.

The age of ‘pay, pray and obey’ is now long past

Under the pontificate of Pope Francis, traditional Catholics were all of one mind as they absorbed numerous videos on the internet or read page after page of criticisms and outrage by the commentators. The worse the news from Rome, the more united became the ‘traddies.’ It was impossible to believe that things could deteriorate further as the faithful were treated to the outpourings from the Vatican – Amoris Laetitia, Traditiones Custodes, and then Synodality, interspersed with alarming throwaway lines spoken down a microphone aboard an aircraft.
The response to all these statements was shock, confusion and outrage. However, one took comfort from the fact that firstly, Pope Francis wouldn’t last forever, and secondly, that a new pope would put things right. After all, the next incumbent of the papal throne couldn’t possibly be worse than the current one – could he? Well, now we know! For anybody who has eyes to see, Pope Leo XIV is definitely ‘Francis Mark II’, …

Portugal: Case Study of a Successful Consecration

by Kathy Clubb
There is some confusion these days over whether or not Russia has ever been consecrated to the Immaculate Heart in accordance with the requests of Our Lady.
The first reference to a consecration was made in 1917, during Our Lady’s third apparition to the children at Fatima. During the apparition, the Blessed Virgin told the children She would later return to ask for Russia to be consecrated to Her Immaculate Heart, promising that this would lead to the conversion of Russia and world peace.
In June, 1929, Our Lady announced to Sr. Lucia at Tuy, Spain, that the time had arrived for the consecration to take place. Our Lord then visited Sr. Lucia two years later to repeat the request and again in 1936.
It wasn’t until 1942 that Pius XII became the first pope to attempt a consecration. Subsequent Popes have attempted consecrations right up to Pope Francis in 2022, with John Paul II making three attempts, but none of them fulfilled the simple request in all its details.

Greek Catholic Uniates in Hungary Removed the Filioque in September

Since 1 September 2025, the Greek Catholic Church in Hungary has omitted the 'Filioque' from the Creed during the Divine Liturgy.
This decision to abandon a Catholic tenet in order to appease the schismatic Orthodox was announced on Hd.gorogKatolikus.hu.
The article argues that, in recent decades, Pope John Paul II prayed with Orthodox patriarchs, omitting the 'Filioque'. It claims that this change is not an innovation, but a return to a text prayed by ancestors.
The current version states that the "Holy Spirit [...] proceeds from the Father". However, this can easily be misunderstood. According to the Western Church, the Holy Spirit proceeds "from the Father and the Son". The Eastern fathers said, what is also legitimately formulated, that he proceeds "from the Father through the Son".
However, the Holy Spirit does not proceed from the Father alone.

Leo XIV Appoints Canadian Archbishop – Promoter of Indigenous Paganism in Eucharists

Pope Leo XIV has appointed Bishop Stephen Andrew Hero, 55, as the new Metropolitan Archbishop of Edmonton, Canada. He previously served as Bishop of Prince Albert.
Born on December 19, 1969, in Montréal, he was ordained a priest for the Archdiocese of Edmonton in 2000. In 2021, Pope Francis appointed him Bishop of Prince Albert.
Inculturation of Mother-Earth Indigenous Rituals
In May 2025, the Catholic Bishops of Saskatchewan – including Bishop Hero – issued a directive on “Liturgy and Inculturation for Indigenous and Métis Celebrations.”
It allows drums to be used during the Eucharist with guidance from an Elder. In Indigenous natural religion, drums are considered sacred because the drumbeat symbolizes the heartbeat of “Mother Earth.”
Furthermore, the directive allows sweetgrass or sage to be used in place of incense during the Eucharist. Sweetgrass is often referred to as the “hair of Mother Earth” and is therefore regarded as sacred.
The indigenious ritual of "Smudging" is also …More

@Mike the Pike @Novena - Oremus I mean anyone who thinks a TLM in St. Peter's without a prior re-consecration is a sign that the tables of Modernism are turning. LifeSite is not in that category as it tries to report on everything relevant, using a journalistic approach. The others mentioned are, sadly, compromised in some way, whether through attachment to Modernism, to money, to notoriety, or to pressure from Zionists.

Vinicius provides a fascinating insight into medieval Christendom - the model for the reign of Christ the King.
"A glance at a map of the world in A.D. 1600 shows every Westernised territory outside Europe as ruled by Phillip III of Castile (Phillip II of Portugal and Aragon); the first “globalism” was Catholic. This was accompanied by economic and scientific expansion (the world eventually adopted Pope Gregory XIII’s 1582 reform of the calendar, for example), striking advances in government administration, and a military revolution that guaranteed Christian Western hegemony."

Traditional Pre-Enlightenment Society

by Vinicius
For Christians, the contemporary West has many tendencies that are objectionable and cannot be ignored. Society is secular; it does not recognise God, His Church or revelation. It does not even recognise natural law, based on divinely-made unchanging human nature, as the template for society.
The result is not only the array of positions associated with “woke” culture, but also the injustice and social chaos resulting from free-market absolutism and the ongoing technocrat revolution. Mankind is groaning under these threats, often reacting and lashing out.
On the Western political scene today, however, a position firmly based upon universal unchanging principles is absent. This is perhaps the worst calamity because it prevents any solution. Without this template in mind, changing society for the better is unlikely, as G. K. Chesterton wrote: “A strict rule is not only necessary for ruling; it is also necessary for rebelling …. There must at any given moment be an abstract …

"Doorly presents a lucid, incisive and compelling case for criticising various problematic aspects of Council documents and the vernacular liturgy.

The Council in Question: A brief commentary

by
With great interest, I recently read
Unable to resist the neo-modernist pejorative label “Lefebvreism” in order to dismiss, by implication, traditionalist arguments as the misguided doctrines of a sect leader, Nichols presents a number of assertions, so patronising and patently erroneous, they cannot remain uncontested. Unfortunately, this brief commentary does not permit an adequate response to all of these. I will therefore explore only two major issues, namely, the concept of “Tradition” and secondly, the highly controversial issue of “Religious Liberty”.
Firstly, Nichols, as I will shortly demonstrate, espouses a concept of tradition which is completely at odds with the authentic understanding of Catholic Tradition (p.42):
“The difference between ‘Tradition’ with a capital ‘T’ and tradition with a lower case ‘t’ is that the first refers to Revelation as transmitted in the Church’s life, while the second refers to the ‘ways’ in which the Church presents it. The way in which …

Important for pro-life work or any other form of apostolate in which Catholics are involved:
"Therefore, it is very important to recall frequently this great principle: the interior life is the soul of the apostolate.
A deep interior life will generate intense love and intimate union with God, and, therefore, from it will spring a fruitful apostolate, a true sharing in Christ’s work of saving souls; on the other hand, a mediocre interior life can produce only a feeble love and union with God; hence, the resultant apostolate cannot have an efficacious influence on souls."

Meditation
Unless our life is one of intimacy with God and His Son Jesus, we cannot be His collaborators, docile instruments in His hands; unless we have an intense interior life, we cannot have the mind of Christ and be associated with His love and His work for the salvation of souls.
By means of prayer and the struggle against sin, by self-renunciation, and the practice of the virtues, the interior life progressively rids the soul of all that is defective, thus favouring in it the growth of grace and love, that is to say it vivifies the soul with divine life, since grace and love are a participation in the very life of God.
It follows, therefore, that the more a soul cultivates the interior life, the nearer it will come to God, and having become …

On 16 October, the Italian Bishops’ Conference published their synthesis document for the national synodal journey, titled 'Leaven of Peace and Hope', on ChiesaCattolica.it. It will be voted on by the Third Synodal Assembly of the Churches in Italy on 25 October. The three most ideological quotes are:
- Dioceses should commit to promoting the recognition and support of homosexual and transgender individuals, as well as their parents, who are already part of the Christian community, overcoming the discriminatory attitudes sometimes prevalent in ecclesial circles and society.
- The Italian Episcopal Conference should support, through prayer and reflection, the 'days' promoted by civil society to oppose all forms of violence and show solidarity with those affected by discrimination (Days against gender violence, discrimination, paedophilia, bullying, femicide, homophobia, transphobia, etc.).
