[Applause] so what has happened is that uh a lot of
people have contacted me because i think they're free to ask you questions
i mean um would you again sort of tell us
why we should be listening to you what is your background and your
credentials yeah well the
the answer would not be really that they should listen to me
i've studied 10 for 10 years as a matter of fact you see while you
were working working hard for most of your life i'm not 47 for most of my life i didn't
work hard not in that sense i work in factories chemical industry germany whatever but i
most of the time instead of working i was reading
if i had a better memory then i would be uh much closer to perfection as far as
mythology is concerned but i have done my studies at the angelico
monroe but that's not the point that's a high school sort of high school outfit
pretty low level as far as the academic level is concerned but i had the luck of
having some of the old teachers who introduced me to saint thomas in the proper way
and once introduced to saint thomas i started to instead of studying the most of the time
modernist books most of the teachers of the angelico wanted me to read i just spent my spare time and i spent
i also spent my studying time with uh the writings of saint thomas and
the famous book which is called dancing the collection of paper magisterium in
latin that's a book that i'm studying now for 25 years that's the reason why there are certain
things that i really know and at the same time i hope at least i've not lost my common sense and
the reason why i say you're not listening to me but to the church teaching as much as i
can remember it now there's young people out there who will remember certain things much
better than i do at the same time many people have not learned the theological
method that's not only common sense it's also that you will never have all the answers
ready all the time see we are doing a sort of live
interview here and i have not been prepared for this i don't even know what your questions are going to be but you may rest assured that whenever
you face me with a question that i do not have the answer for i will not give an answer i will not give you a substitute
for an answer one of the things today that is thoroughly misunderstood
also among traditionalists is that to think that who has the better argument
has the truth that's not true that's what people may think about some
idiotic tv discussions between presidential candidates
they might think that the one presidential candidate that has the better arguments
and has better apparently the better reasoning and the better preparation must be the better man but that's not
true because in public discussions very often
the purpose of the discussion is that i am right not to find out the truth the reason why
i can answer your question why should people listen to me in the first place is that i will always try to the best of
my knowledge to reproduce doctrine that is traditional with the church one
of the reasons why i'm not in all too familiar and good terms with the consumer church is
because they want they would want me to call back into and after having stopped quoting vatican
to cool paul vi and john paul ii and you're highly embarrassed when you came up when you come up with quotations
that are uh from the council of trent or pope fires to tense and that proves
them wrong because they're not interested in the truth most of the time they defend a certain political purpose or they just
want to be right and unfortunately among traditionalists it's a widespread phenomenon
that many priests just want to be right they want to be able to say see i was right and you were wrong
i've never been interested if i was right i'm interested in what is the truth what
is correct what is right and the reason why uh i would never say
you should listen to me but the reason why there could be much worse things you could do than listening to me
is because at least i i try my very best not to make up things
i try to give quotations as much as my memory permits me to do so the reason
why i'm not sitting here with a prepared manuscript that will read to you is because it would be
useless latest on page two you will be honestly asleep well you said
we have not you don't know the questions i'm going to ask you no i have no idea why the point is the
point that i have to make a point about this one of the reasons why i decided to do interviews like this live and not
with prepared questions and prepared answers and prepared manuscripts
god has given his talents freely he gives them
individually to each individual he gives them differently to each individual
somebody might be much better in reading than in talking freely some other person
might be a lot more gifted for talking freely i happen to know and it's not my marriage because i didn't buy that
i didn't work for that it has to be given to me i have i have the merit that when i talk
freely people stay awake when i read the book to you people fall asleep
the best sermon the best sermon in history
and you cannot challenge me on that but you will see the best sermon in history is christ's
speech to the apostles the last supper recorded in the gospel
of saint john reed by the way talk about spiritually
that's spiritual read of what our lord jesus christ had to say
to the apostles at the last judgment
what christ says here is an infinite value of absolutely infinite value and i
consider it from all aspects the literary aspect not just talking about theology or revelation as a matter of fact what it
is uh the revelation of god's will and god's thoughts and god's intentions
i also consider it the most beautiful speech ever done from the literary viewpoint
however might be a lot in itself where it has infinite value by circumstance it
becomes it can be can by circumstances it can become worthless
namely when uh at night you come home from your work you sit
down you're tired but you want to do something for your spiritual life and here's this guy in front of the
camera and he's reading the gospel to you and he goes on [Music]
you will be solid asleep after the third line of our lord jesus christ old words
so that's what you call delivery to deliver something and i just can't i
i'd rather risk a wrong quotation
but before i read something to you with scientifically researched fixed quotations that will put you sleep
solidly you were you were reared in the
new church yes when did you decide when you wrapped
that altar with the new master i cannot do this anymore a few months after i was obtained and mind you
there's one thing i have to say about that i've never celebrated one single mass
in the vernacular i started out from the very beginning
in 1976 i started to say the the new bravery
the liturgy of horrors and eras instead of ours but i did it in latin
one of the reasons why i needed several years to find out that it's no good is because i did it in latin
not that i don't understand that and that's not the point but once you are faced with translations
of the new bravery in english you will understand why i say if i had done it in english from the
very beginning or in german i would have stopped very soon because i would have seen the blasphemies that come about in the
translations in the latin original usually they find them are you saying to me father
that the to say the new mass in latin from back into and would
would be a valid mass at that point i firmly believe so okay for the simple reason that
uh you cannot necessarily talk about the new sacraments i'm talking
about all the seven sacraments in the new right you cannot necessarily call them latin
right as a matter of fact i'm firmly convinced that they might be all kinds of things but they cannot be of
the latin right there is the point is the latin was more than one
right now traditionally in the latin church you have the roman
right which basically is nothing else but the right that used to be celebrated in the
roman courier and that popeye's the fifth in 1570 canalized
you have the ambrosian right which is pretty similar the dominican riot which is pretty
similar but then you have the uh you have to write the baraka and portugal you have the primos detention right you
have the the right of the uh carthusians whose founder we celebrate today
saint bruno for apollo novice and we have uh the moss arabic lisi gothic right
which is celebrated in spain and which is quite different to the roman rite
and from the very fact that we have to consider different rights
uh and from the very fact that pope innocent iii said that you shouldn't change a pope
who changes all the rights and all the sacraments and comes up with new ones put himself in schism with the church
and the very fact that the council of trent seventh session of the council of trent
about sacraments in general canon 13 says whatsoever says
that the traditionally handed down rights that are
used in the solemn administration of sacraments can be held in disdain or can be
shortened or can be turned into new rights by any one of the pastors of the church
anyone this means whosoever because the latin word chris kumquat doesn't mean anyone but it means
whosoever doesn't matter who it is he can't do it now whosoever means the pope is included who says so is outside the
church that's why i think that the pope doesn't have a right
to change all the rights if he does so at the least he is committing a schismatic
act because that's against the unity of the church and i mean just look around there is no such thing as unity anymore
here everyone does what he wants what do you do with the right that you recognize not
being the latin roman right as such when you consider its validity now for
the roman rite we have a definition for the roman rite the sacramental forms
and the matters are defined we know if we don't use bread and wine
for mass it can't be mass anyway you don't use water for baptism but coca-cola it can't be
baptism anyway we we know these things we also know if you if you baptize in the name of christ
which pope nicholas the first said would be valid we know it's not valid in any case it
has to be in the name of the father son holy spirit trinitarian baptism
uh at the same time when we are faced with a schismatic right which is something the church had to deal with
extensively and intensively latest after the great schism between the eastern the western
churches in the year 1054 the church had to deal
with the question how do we determine which right is valid
so they went according to the content that means they examined the form
of the sacrament and said does this form express the essentials of the
sacrament yes or no they didn't say
is this form deviating in one or two or three single terms or words
from what they are supposed to do no they examine those rights according to
does it express the essence of the sacrament yes or no the last one to make
these things very sure was probably the 13th in upper story at the end of the last
century when he established that the anglican ordinations were not valid and he established finally and forever
that they were not valid mainly because of the defect of intention not of the form originally of the form
but not back then and so when you deal with the the
question are the novus order sacraments valid you have to examine the matter the form and the official
mind you and that's the whole point the official intention the objective intention the manifest intention
the church has never tried to look into one's soul you can't even do that in the confessional how would i know as a
priest if the guy who's just confessing his sins is saying the truth or not i can only i can only pronounce the
judgment on what i've heard god knows his soul the fact that saint john maria
villani knew it was a special gift another one of these aforementioned uh grazie gratis data the freely given
gifts and according to that we have to face the fact that in latin
the word the fact that they leave out mysterium v day mystery of the faith is not a change
in the essences of mass the essence of mass is the double consecration it's very important to understand the
essence of mass is the double consecration twin it should be called twin consecration
bread and wine therefore the essence and this is something you can look up in the old moral theologies is this is my bread
this is the crop of my of my blood uh this is i'm sorry uh this is my body and this is the cup
of my blood that's the essence and that is given in the latin
new riot the question starts with the vernacular translations
that change the actual message of those words by saying which has been
given for all instead of for many
those who expect father has to be the judge on everything will be highly disappointed when i tell them i do not have definite proof that new
mass in english is invalid i also do not have definite proof that
the new masses in english is valid therefore i have proof
that it is doubtful i have never had a doubt about the latin
lumas celebrate it correctly of course why correctly there is a big big big
great great important mistake about that people think they can judge a priest's
intentions no you can't but and this is how the church did it
and does it if a priest dressed in whatever the local investments are but
obviously those vestments that are used for mass
approaches an altar whatever that is as long as people would commonly say yes
that's an altar has the missile up there uses the
official book issued by the church issued i said because when we talk about the novice
order we're not talking about a promulgated law issued booked by the church
then it would say okay father is going to say mass you see again i talked about the common sense on another occasion
and i have to repeat it common sense is the sense for the problem you see that somebody has this makes it
visible that he has the intention of doing what the church does it's like
when you have a priest of the society of saint christ the tenth he leaves the sacristy
he is dressed as a priest supposed to dress he approaches an altar that looks like
an altar is supposed to look like on that altar there is a missile which you of course can only presume
they're not going to let you see it to check but you presume this missile up there is a real authentic missile of
saint paul is the fifth therefore a missile of the catholic church roman latin right and then he starts uh nominee patrick's
defeated spiritual sanctions you presume okay father's same as
and that's very important because this way the priest makes it manifest manifest means visible
almost tangible if you were allowed to that he's saying mass
therefore if a priest in the in the new right performs the way he's supposed to
your your point of departure will be the presumption that he wants to do what the church does not saying this is
always the case there is some people out there in this country who take everything that i say
and say then they say the country said okay father so you did not say that
that's i'm sorry uh human language is not that simple or simplistic
after having been in huge european palaces if i say to you john this is a beautiful house and it's
a beautiful house but i've been in bigger houses than this one here uh some of these
theologians so-called theologian would say okay father so you're saying this is a small house
no i didn't say that i said i've been to bigger ones
i didn't say i've been this is a small house and it's not a small house
i don't consider this a small house but i've been to bigger ones see this is no way of arguing theology
in theology you do not never ever try to hook somebody else to his own
quotation real theology the way saint thomas dealt
with it the way most of the greatest theologians did
you only want to find out the truth you're not interested in what the other one says
this is why i say you don't listen to me hopefully if i don't make a mistake i'm not infallible if i don't make a
mistake hopefully you're listening to what the probes say but you don't listen to what i say you
listen to what the popes said minors the faults of my memory
now wait the point i'm making here is we're talking about probability
i consider the new mass properly celebrated in latin or in a correct translation
which for example in the polish language is correctly translated i consider it
as much as i have the authority to judge on that i consider it valid if you if you say
there is the general instruction to the new mass which delivers a heretical definition of mass
i'm sorry to disappoint you on this point it does but that is the rubrics
officially officially and you have to read apostolic chikura the document on
the anglican ordinations on that where pope leo 13th says if
the if the right is shortened if things are left out with the obvious intention of
changing the doctrine and the doctrine is changed then it's invalid
on paper officially ask the vatican write a letter to partner ratzinger officially on paper the church is
steadfastly holding to the real presence the sacrifice of mass and the priesthood
in practice in real life they don't but on paper they i i
now come back to you but excuse me there's one thing that i
finally have to add these are my viewpoints
this doesn't change the fact that i consider the new mass as such doubtful and that of course puts it in a
different light then singer in meta quotation 2101
says you're not allowed to frequent sacraments not even for possible reasons according to a probability
another question i have is
do you believe and this is a question just asked of me since uh i set you up with that talking about
the validity of the mass yeah if you if you felt that the the
sacraments of vatican ii were doubtful
would you not try to have yourself reordained
because you may have not been ordained correctly yes definitely yes to that but i don't doubt
them say uh you talk about the sacraments there are seven
as long as one follows the newly published write on baptism
i'm i'm only aware of the latin edition so uh those people who always like to
hook me on my own arguments uh don't quote me on the vernacular editions thank you
i'm talking about latin i have no doubt about baptism even though there's the exorcism is a
libido um i have no doubt about confession
especially not about confession all that's needed for confessions able to absorb applications
in what language language ever as long as it's really understood i have absolutely no doubt about
ordination whatsoever i will go into detail about this obviously but before you go that far
yeah uh malachi martin who was of course someone you sort of liked uh in his i think was
deserted vineyard said we don't know at this point who is
really truly ordained yes correct that has a different background this thing which i will i i will come back to
now when we talk about the new sacraments i said um if uh if the intention is manifested the
priest is going to celebrate mass see i'm not quoting myself here i'm
quoting a person that i consider to be a real authority on this and uh
quite frankly i don't care if people agree with me on this point archbishop lefevre said basically
speaking the new sacraments are valid unless and then he made the exception that i
will go into detail with but he said basically speaking it's valid and archbishop lefevre said that
uh as a point of departure we considered the new mass valley unless and then he uh said
pretty similar things to what i had said and i consider archbishop lefevre an
authority i do not consider 17 year old self-appointed theologians
who are not even the priesthood have never studied properly in anything to be authorities i do not even consider
myself to be that much of an authority but archbishop lefebvre according to a
church tradition when uh things get rough so so speaking you trust the bishop rather than the
priest basically speaking now this could be turned beautifully against me with the american bishops conference
today but at the same time would say we'll look at the priesthood mores and the point i'm making is
we are dependent on a certain authority on many things because even papal statements are anything but clear
at least sometimes and as far as the probability is concerned i
excluded i have a problem with confirmation
because i don't think that paul vi could validly allow anything but olive oil to be used
for confirmation which is the matter of confirmation and therefore if you go ahead and use
some peanut oil or sunflower oil or whatever
i consider i consider confirmation invalid however i'm not a pope and i
have no final judgment on it i i consider it it's definitely doubtful definitely from what we know it's
doubtful when we consider extreme function without olive oil i can't see how it
would work well now today the ordinations don't have extra i'm sorry
so i'm sorry the matter of the nation is the imposition of hands not the olive oil
now as far as the alienation is concerned paul the six i don't know about i i have
to be honest i did not i did not compare the old and the new right on the
ordination of of deacons jacqueline but i did only recently
with a friend of mine in austria who's a pretty aerodyne theologian we compared the forms of ordination of
the new and the old ordination to the priesthood and the consecration to for bishops
i know the argument that's looming in the background including sacramento arguments by pope 12.
if if the infallible document that popeye's
the 12th published under the title sacramento ordinance where he said that
them for validity the form of yakunit has to be colon such and such priesthood colon
such and such bishophood colon such and such
if that was applicable for all other nations we would have since then no valid
ordinations in the eastern rights mind you the united or the schismatic we
would have no valid ordinations in any right that doesn't correspond to the latin
roman right in this point obviously therefore the document the
past 12 published is regarding the roman latin the roman latin
right i said before what do you do if you're faced with a
right that you cannot properly uh categorize but obviously you have to judge it
according to content now politics claimed i have not checked up on it so that's another
one of these things a theologian who pretends that he will be able to answer everything correctly in the public
discussion is not a man who wants the truth but is a man who wants to be right
beware of people who want to be right all the time i have been wrong more often
on more things than you than in theology than you ever knew that could be right or wrong i
can if i if i started to give you an account on everything that i have been wrong about in the old days especially in theology
we'd be sitting here for another six hours with another three tapes all right i have i'm i'm talking i'm
talking about the episcopal ordination see with the priesthood ordination there
has been one word different ut the conditional word
in is not necessarily conditional word in latin
according to all traditional moral theologies i've ever read
even when an infallible papal decree defines
that for the validity of a sacrament the form has to be such and such and
such if a non-essential word is left out
that does not significantly change the sense of these words even according
to the rather strict rubrics in the old myth that talk about the possible defects while celebrating mass
would consider it sinful if it's done deliberately but would consider it valid
that means that even from the viewpoint of the latin roman right priesthood ordination
cannot be considered invalid and the bishop who ordained me a priest by the
way was consecrated in the alt-right in 1965. archbishop solatani that the thing that
concerns us here is are the bishops that are ordained in the
novus order consecration right valid bishops again
under the condition that all the other necessary conditions are fulfilled
the form is definitely valid policy exclaims and i said before i have not
checked up on that but politics claims that he took that form from the byzantine right
i don't care the point is there is several different ways of consecrating validly a
bishop now the the church in rome has cons has always considered
all the seven sacraments with the schismatic heretical russian orthodox and greek
orthodox churches valid if you bother to read translations of
the episcopal consecration and the priesthood alienation in the eastern riots you'd be surprised what you find
it's not clear at all as a matter of fact i can tell you one thing as i had to deal with this recently i
compared the uh episcopal consecration on the pastor 12
the set in his uh sacramento ardennes with the new one
and the funny thing i found was the the old episcopal consecration form is
not as clear about the uh actual role of a bishop as the german translation of the new one
so we're talking we're talking about something that is contained in the form
of the sacrament and as i said before as i cannot
consider the new ordinations to be necessarily of the latin roman right uh
leave it open right now if the novus ordo is just plainly schismatic or if
it's agnostic sec as bishop this race or if it's just a
conciliar sect as archbishop le favor called it if it's let's say it's sectarian and
heretical then we have to deal with it exactly the way the church dealt with the russian orthodox and the greek
orthodox rights which are all recognized all of them and they're not necessarily
as clear as the lowest order rights on many things but i i have not yet found the
theologian who will definitely prove to me that the new episcopal consecration misses out on the essences of bishophood
the old one is anything but clear for the simple reason we have we are
facing a phenomenon here which is quite amazing when you read the old code of canon law
the 1917 code of canal is something that some people in this country always love to quote against me in my face
well we have a problem there because in the quote of canon law of 1917 it
says that the major orders are yakima yakunato priesthood
pastor 12 said it's jacob priesthood and bishop
saint thomas aquinas said and it was a tradition in the latin church that the
matter of ordination at priesthood is the handing over of the instruments
which had to be while the bishop was still holding them chalice and patton
had to be touched by the uh candidate for ordination i mean guess
what the massive ceremony at my ordination insisted that i do it that you must touch it he said you must touch it
he was obviously not all too aware of the sacramento holiness decreed by pastor 12
who said no the matter is definitely the imposition of hands because with the greek united for
example you never had the handing over the instruments logical clear to last point however
canon law doesn't define things and never has defined things and some people ought to get this in
their head it's the purpose of papal magisterium to define things not a catalog all right i have i have
can a priest are a religious bishop archbishop cardinal pope
be a nation nope what if he is according to the old code
of canon law he's excommunicated according to the new code of canada he has to be just justly punished
that's what the law says question who consecrated the fate
excuse me who consecrated the faith that's bishop uh cardinal leonard
i'm getting someone asked me the question or told me that that person or that bishop
archbishop was a mason that's going around yeah i know apart from the fact that
uh it's not it's not that easy to produce proof for the fact that cardinal leonard was amazed
if he weren't supposition that's what i'm saying as uh it's not the purpose of this
conversation here to clear up uh the rather insignificant detail if uh archbishop cardinal leonard
of leon was a mason or not if he was a mason then i would suggest
to that person who suggested that archbishop lefevre might not have been consecrated the bishop validly
to read up to check up on the right of ordination which demands that it has to be three
bishops and all the three bishops have to consecrate all the three
bishops have to have the intention of consecrating all the three bishops have to impose
their hands therefore if that person is able to
prove to me that all the three bishops who consecrated archbishop lefevre
were most definitely masons then i would say ha that's too bad that means that
archbishop lefevre has been illegally consecrated but validly
no one oh yes well you always get people who would suggest any kind of things but
the church has never said that one who is excommunicated cannot ordain
see only a sacrament that in its validity as to its validity is
dependent only saity on being allowed
is doubtful in that case not a sacrament that doesn't depend on it
so so your answer to to them would be that there had to be three bishops that's not
the point the point is not only there had to be three bishops there was three bishops who consecrated
archbishop of favor but also if all the three of them had been missiles which is not easily to establish
uh not easily established even if that had been the case he would have been validly consecrated
because the fact that you're excommunicated means you don't have your office if archbishop leonard which i am not as
sure about i i don't believe that if i buy at the local cash register if you if i buy one
of those black and white it is it's still black and white i think uh newspapers that tell me that a b17
bomber fleet has to be had been found on the moon and that adolf hitler was a woman i
usually don't waste my time to check up on these things and i have longer though stopped to
check on every mason that i supposedly you're saying before and even if someone were excommunicated
he ordains validly okay all right um
have you ever heard of a group called the knights of malta yes definitely and who are they are they
part of what what are they part of there are several theories there is a very interesting uh there's a very interesting group in
[Music] i think it's pennsylvania it's in pennsylvania yes
who claim to be the the true knights of malta and who say that the knights of mata
right now in rome would not be the red knights of malta
their argument is that when the order of the knights of
malta sort of sort of diet with the grandmasters was it treason or whatever i don't
remember my memory for historical details is unfortunately not good
they claimed there had been a sort of serious vacancy among the the grand masters of the
knights of malta and then leo the 13th re-established the knight order of malta they say that
can't be because if it is actually as the italian license plate says s-m-o-m small
sovereign military already sovereign military order of malta it wouldn't be
sovereign if it's out of papal graces now they say that uh because uh
the the roman knights of malta are dependent on paper grace they are not sovereign and they can't be the true
knights of malta and then they i've never been able however to find detailed informations on
who after czar which were which star was paul paul i think it was paul who supposedly
was the last grandmaster of the two knights of malta how that succession would end up within
in chicago pennsylvania i don't the point no excuse me the point i'm making is this
i couldn't care less if the knights of malta and rome are authentic or not i know they are not catholics because
they follow everything that vatican do says in the process well i don't think that was the the
intent of the other question i think the intent of the question is that there are a lot of subversive
secret societies of malta has never been secret okay never
none of those groups not that i'm aware of
there is oh you want a secret society try to find out the membership of other
excuse me uh the escriva witnesses that language mistake bait the jehovah
witnesses the escrima witnesses trying to find out a full membership list of the escriva witnesses
jose marie escribati balaguer the founder of the opus evidently do you think there's something
subversive with them or yes definitely can you expand on that yes
[Music] the founder of the opus dei who supposedly is gratified at the time
when pius xii i believe that pastor 12 was pope and was able to do it
in 1949 put the membership in the party in the communist party under excommunication
and also at the same time put under excommunication any work done for the communist party
the founder of the opus dei and this is something that the opus dei confirms in at least one of their
publications accepted members of the spanish communist or italian
already i don't remember that but communist party into the opal state and when one of those communists that's
a dialogue i read in one of the opus state publications when one of these opposed i'm sorry when
one of these party members of the communist party said to the founder of the opu state but
monsignor in that case i would have to leave the communist party the founder of the opus dei said oh no
there will be no need for that so what do you make of that what do you
call that when the membership in the communist party was under excommunication
the founder of the oprah state admitted members of the communist party into the opal state without telling them to leave
the communist party can you beatify a man who was in public disobedience against the pope
at the time mind you when there was no church crisis like now
by the way uh the founder of the opus dei said that he had a doctorate in not only in theology but also canon law
i've never found anybody who would show me that people have asked the opus dei to
produce the document there's no answer i'm not saying
i'm just saying i would like to see it in your uh one of your tapes
uh you spoke of martin luther yeah now i have heard that someday he may be
a catholic saint right in fact years ago
someone got a picture down to i need a gulf wine for that
[Music] you spoke about martin luther and you
you felt he was a very evil man
he said things 10 books and publishers
thomas a nelson ten books and publishers have an excellent book the title is i don't
remember the author but ten books uh requires a title a number or an author and they will be able to ship the book
to you in ten books you will find facts
about luther read the book
luther used names for our lord that i refuse to repeat
and luther admitted freely that he had his inspirations from the devil
you ready yeah there is a picture of the pope
kissing the quran yes public act of apostasy and he calls it a
holy book it's public act of apostasy if it if i had scientifically irrefutable
proof that that act of apostasy would be a formal act of apostasy
i would side with the citizens vacantist
there's no doubt that he kissed the correct yeah there's no doubt is there any doubt that he called it a holy book nope
how do you make that extension that he was a formal heretic people who
have studied recent american history a witness to the fact that a president can say a lot of
nonsense does he cease to be president
i know the argument is the president doesn't lose his office by being a heretic
in the church you lose your office by being a heretic i would say if you can lose your office
by by being treasonous that's an excellent argument uh
it's a virtue he subverts the government what would be the difference in this
century the 20th century which will not which has not ended last december 31st
but will end uh december 31st for those who have a spark of
mathematics left in their memory because it was called the 20th century and the 20th century cannot
end in 1999. even if kaiser wilhelm that zweiter of germany
in 1900 decreed this to be the first year of the 20th century it doesn't change
the fact that the 20th century has given ample proof
for a treacherous b people being heads of states without losing their
office now the uh i that we we are here actually uh touching another
question which you might have in your list of questions i don't know but we're actually touching
another question here do we have a probe yes or no i have only one answer to this and i will repeatedly
give this answer as long as i do not have scientifically irrefutable proof
that this present pope is not pope i will hold him as such why
papal pronouncements on when a pope not just when somebody loses his
office but when a pope loses his office have been scarce to say the least
very few popes unfortunately because i do not believe it but very few popes have contradicted
the theory that the pope is above canon law mind you i'm quoting uh even judge
doctors forgive me i don't have the page i don't have the author i don't have the book
but uh it's an old saying the pope is above canelo
pope pius ix said about himself i am tradition
which is impossible but of course uh a mental error
is no impediment to sanctity however popeye's the ninth said i am tradition i
don't believe that i don't believe that a single pope can be traditional impossible the popes have unfortunately
been very very [Music] even contradictory on the on this
subject when the bishop of brixton
in 1869 asked the past the ninth
what will happen they were discussing the uh infallibility to be pronounced as a
dogma the plaster 9 was asked by the bishop of greeks what will happen if a future pope
was to pronounce heresy why is the knight didn't say he would
lose his office now this is in writing and you can find it in the famous collection of papal pronouncements or
papal private correspondence the collection is for those who like footnotes m-a-n-s-i
mike alpha november sierra india mansi and it's in the 5000 i wish i had a
better memory for things like this it's 5 500 something if i remember well
the quotation marks the ninth says oh you just don't follow him you don't
say this guy he loses his office he doesn't say he ceases to be broke he says okay but then
you just don't follow him just like saint thomas aquinas said if if your prelate is wrong you just can't
follow him but isn't there another document that that's that speaks of uh something like um
if the pope does something heretical he's no longer pope no no wait a second you can't do something heretical you can only
pronounce it pronounce something right uh but here's the point is the point is
cannonball presumes that you are a formal heritage that's canon law anyway
moral theology like primra for example or varens or vidal say that
discussing the topic discussing the issue of a pope losing his office say only if
he's in formal heresy that's uh we don't have the time here and we would have to go for five hours to discuss these arguments what i
have to say no no i'm i'm i'm i'm fully satisfying you because you you will see that this is this is
uh what you were asking that was not what i was asking no i'm sorry you said uh someone has
someone has brought up that yeah you evade an issue
that there is a document that says that when the pope uh
commits something uh heresy all right he is no longer pope ipso
facto no i didn't say that although i am saying there is a document to that yes right and people yeah
many there are many documents to this point okay saint robert bellamine who is at least a doctor of the church right
saint robert bellamine says even if the pope was to pronounce just material heresy he would ipso facto
cease to be pope okay why doesn't that hold the point i'm making is
there has been there have been so many contradicting theories on this
subject for example this uh even though i don't accept it it's there
and if i accept it or not it's not the point it's there the old saying that the pope is above
camel law if the pope is above kennel law you cannot apply canada law on him
who would do that anyway cannon 333 paragraph three of the nuclear cannon
law and that's an almost liberal copy from uh the relevant canon in the old canon law
there is no appeal against the roman pontiff so the old the oldest problem as to this
topic does the pope cease to be pope when he becomes a heretic the oldest
problem is not to determine is he a heretic or not but to determine if he's pope or not
who's going to do that you see this is the whole point archbishop lefevre again uh pronounced pretty well on this
subject he was asked of course you can't imagine the seminarians in econ they had the same problems
and they knew most of the arguments back and forth against and four and they asked him and he said
archbishop lefebvre said very clearly he said there they have excellent arguments there are very good
arguments to believe that he's not pope but when you consider canon law which
certainly applies to us obviously it's not that sure if it
applies uh pope but it certainly concerns us then you have to consider the fact that the pope
doesn't have to prove anything to us uh the onus propandy this is called latin
the burden of proof lies with us it might as well be and i firmly believe
i'm firmly convinced that the state of accountists have much better arguments for their viewpoint
than we have for upholding the pope they have much better arguments
but who's going to decide on that who's going to decide on that who
decided on the arguments for immaculate conception and against the immaculate conception
i don't believe it was a priest from vienna speaking to john mcfay in philadelphia you see the point is
i i have discussed this extensively with many theologians i have discussed
it with theologians who are really erudite i've also discussed it with theologians who especially on the telephone
try nothing else but to hook me up on my own lines by stating the contrary
i've discussed it with serious people and i've discussed it with less than serious people i do know
from my uh reading some certificates have gone through the
trouble of writing excellent usually theologically very eroding
thesis on this topic the very fact that i'm not convinced
is completely sufficient for my mentioning the pope in the canon because
even if i personally was convinced that he is not pope you think i'm stupid
if i mention john paul ii in the canon and at the last judgment i
find out he wasn't pope what is god gonna do to me nothing but what if i firmly believe
that he is not pope and i don't mention him in the canon anymore and then the last judgment i find out he was pope
oh oh the burden of proof is something of the of a very decisive
nature insensitive issues like that this is one of the reasons we we
discussed the validity of ordination the pope doesn't have to prove to me that i've been validly ordained
and i don't have to prove to you that i've been valid here at the end the other part has to produce the proof
the burden of proof doesn't lie with the one that is presumed to be right by the law
the burden of proof lies with the one who challenges it that's not just true in canon law it's
true in all logical civil laws
the pope for example i mean of course this is not this is not a conclusive argument if he
actually holds the office of being peter vicar of christ but the pope is recognized as a head of state by
by by a three-digit number of countries now the one who challenges that is the
one who has to present the proof if the president of the united states says okay now i'm going to appoint a new
ambassador to the vatican he doesn't have to produce proof that there is a head of state in the vatican
and he doesn't have to pre to produce proof that the vatican is a recognized state or that the catholic church is a
recognized institution some things are presumed and if you uh
do not follow the presumption you have to produce the proof now i say it again the set of accounts
do have the better arguments than we have but are they conclusive i don't think so
and even if they were conclusive who is going to establish bioauthority that this is the case
you ready for another one yeah this is mine good
when a person is beatified becomes a saint
uh verified or and then it also becomes the same okay declare the same
yeah yeah kind of nice can there be a mistake there
uh i have to be honest i do know the answer for beatification
beautification has never been considered infallible okay but okay the next step of course
canonization i have recently had the occasion to discuss this with one of my best friends
whom i consider a person more intelligent more erudite than i am
and he said that even when you read benedict xiv prospero lambertini
pope benedict xiv who most probably was one of the uh
most aerodyne most intelligent most educated popes in history who wrote the famous document the
biatification at the canonization about beatification of the blessed
and canonization of the the sanctity he decided on many of these issues
and even when you read his document it does not become fully clear if
canonization is to be considered infallible i i personally believe it's infallible
colonization i i cannot i cannot say look i'm talking i'm
talking to people who at least most people are going to watch this tape
usually have trust in my information and i don't want to disappoint them because
i don't have the right to do that that's why i underline the fact that i personally believe that canonization is infallible
but i'm open to facts you see i'm sometimes you face a fact
and then you see it it doesn't hold up why i bring this up
yes the ineffective ability of the church
may be questioned here yeah because if sainthood
there cannot be any mistakes yes it's still being canonized
i now bring up this to you we bring up john the 23rd and we bring
up pius the ninth ah yeah okay now uh basically aren't they contradictory no
yes definitely there are four yeah but that's two different questions here now the ineffectibility of the church
those who of you who have it already won't have to order it from 10 books but the
ineffectibility of the church is something that has been abused especially recently the concept
of indefectability 10 books and publishers offer also
an excellent english translation of the famous german book by ludwig ott the family name is spelled
oscar tango tango ot catholic dogma and
uh ludwig art is usually very reliable in quoting church doctrine
now the indefectability of the church doesn't mean that everything the church does is all right
ineffectibility like the unity of the church is basically the understanding that the
church is always one always true when you look at the creed it says udam sanctum catholicum
the one holy catholic and apostolic church that's the indefectability of the church
the greatest problem with infallibility is something that i will not sufficiently uh clear up uh in
this conversation because unfortunately that's not i just can't do it i'm not i'm i i i i don't make
that i i don't i don't cheat you i'm not gonna pretend i know the answer if i don't know the answer okay
and uh the the limits of infallibility
when does the magic magisterium become infallible when can you rely on the merchandise
what's the borderline between infallible and non-infallible it's something that
today is of a greater importance than ever
but that doesn't mean that it's cleared up the subject is not cleared up now coming back you you asked about
gratification empires tonight i will not disappoint you on this uh as far as canonization is concerned i
honestly do not know if canonization is to be considered
invalid i consider it invalid but i do not know that i cannot say this with
certitude i'm sure there will be some very intelligent people who will come up with quotations
the problem with quotations is you can contradict christ with the gospel
so careful with quotations especially with single quotations other contexts you
wanted to know repairs the ninth and john the 23rd here's my answer paris tonight yes john the 23rd 9th and
i can prove it i cannot prove to you that pious the 9th is a saint
how would i be able to i cannot prove that to you i believe it for one reason
what saint i beatified okay blessed uh i had the
privilege to know the promoter of the cause of pastor knight personally for
many years his name was monsignor antonio pioranti
in his quality canon of the basilica of saint peter's in rome
we met at least a hundred times in those years that our enrollment and
he was the is or was at least honestly i don't even know if he's still
alive but he was the promoter of the cause of pope pius the knight
when in 1979 he presented to me a medal of uh pious the ninth
that had been printed out of the lead coffin in which pious the ninth had rested before
uh his body was recovered for the examination for the uh cause at the congregation for the
cause of the saints he told me that basically now we're talking about 79.
john paul ii was pope for one year and had not yet had a chance to change all the rules and regulation
of how how to become a saint okay so that's important to remember and back
then in 79 uh monsignor antonio piolanti told me that everything is ready for the
beautification of paris tonight so we are talking about facts that date
back to a time before the president pope changed procedures
now as this doesn't mean that that's not a proof that pius knight is definitely blessed
i believe it and i venerate him and i celebrated mass in his honor but as far as john the 23rd is concerned
the case is easy remember what i said about the founder of the opus dei and
decree against communism okay now in the 1950s when paul passed the 12th was
pope uh angelo giuseppe roncalli the later
john the 23rd became after he had been nunzio in paris he became patriarch of venice archbishop
patriarch of venice when he was patriot of venice that's a famous case that you can find in all the
archives and it was all over the newspapers back then he sided with the local
communist union just issue or not is not the point here cited with the
local communist union against the italian state and
one of his famous uh what do you call them the pastoral letters that are issued for
lent he had to take it back because pisces
cloth angrily grabbed his white telephone and called him and said take it back
he did that but he still sided with the communists against the italian government now this
in a time when the decree that he later on as pope confirmed
was still valid you cannot beatify a man like this i'm sorry because there's rules
we are not talking this is one thing that has to be understood beatification or canonization
mean that the man is in heaven but beatification but the failure
to beatify or to sancti or to canonize a person does not mean he's not in heaven
so i'm not discussing that i'm coming to this point
it seems to me that someone is trying to make john the 23rd a saint and if he does and they put it in with
pius ix they'd be both become saints and the
other contradictory yes of course doctrinally at least not
character wise no but doctrinally well of course pius ix was not a liar john the 23rd was there is a famous case
that will soon be dealt with uh scientifically in a publication i wish
i could give you uh the publisher and the the footnote and but i'm not allowed
to at this point because it hasn't been published yet by them and we're not talking about the fatima crusader where i'm personal friends
with father gruner and the publishers but we're talking about somebody uh that i have no right to quote here before the
publication is actually out but the case of john the 23rd will be dealt with individually
and in detail now there was this famous uh encyclical john the 23rd in favor of the
latin language and when a few of the liberals
whose names we know again father has memory is not what you think so
i don't remember the the name i don't even remember the title of the document but what i'm indicating to you here is this
is a conversation not a scientific proof for everything i say uh pope john xxiii had published that
decree on latin actually it's not a decrees and encyclical in favor of latin so some liberals
confronted him with that they were not alone it was other cardinals present
john xxiii told them don't worry about it i had to do that means it was for the show
can you beautify a person like that that's my problem with defectibility
correct and the problem with defectibility is simply because of a wrong definition of defectibility
the church has been jam-packed with idiots for two thousand years do you think there are people who were saints that were really not saints
quite possibly one of the reasons why i think that everyone who has been canonized
the declaration that somebody is saying might not be true as to his virtues to his life
to the example he gave but why wouldn't the pope be able to use his keys
for the person as such he's got the keys yeah come back to you
on this that's not a doctrine that's a theory actually it's a suspicion
it's not evil the american church is trying to tell everyone that vatican ii
was a godsend to the church um maybe as a punisher now who started john
who started vatican 2 john the 23rd now if he's made a saint
could it be vatican 2 was wrong yes well that's the issue well that's no
contradiction anyway not even the old days uh is center brochures a saint
yes saint ambrosius the judge father senator brochus said that if a heretic who has been baptized
in the name of christ converts he doesn't have to be re-baptized
saint ambrosius said that that's nonsense it's baloney
why well who said that a saint cannot pronounce bologna or do baloney i i'm saying that it seems to me
they're trying to authenticate vatican ii by making john the 23rd correct because just like everybody else
almost everybody else today infallibility is the fashionable era of the century
uh there was a priest his name was abby abby is the title monsieur b reverend
french he was director of the seminary of the french
seminary in rome when a certain young seminarian called marcel
lefebvre attended the french seminary in rome uh missile baylor fox said
in we're talking about the 20s now that saint pius 10th
has uncovered and dealt with the modernists we are facing the worst of all heresies
the heresy that the pope can't do anything
even if pastor knight said i am tradition now pastor knight was a
joker if you read a detailed biography of pious tonight which i have bothered to do 30 years ago
first time you will find out that saint paul's uh i'm sorry excuse me uh a blessed pious the ninth
was a man of great humor and just like father has on these tapes
uh blessed pious ninth would not always say something that's immediately to be taken this
infallible statement or doctrine because when pius ix uh talked as a
regular normal human being he was exactly as infallible as i am
silch zero nada nothing niente and uh so i'm i'm not i'm not
contrary to some people whose tactic it is all the time to do that i'm not going to hook past the ninth on
his statement i am tradition it's a very dangerous statement but then i have uh
other more dangerous statements pastor depressed the knight twice tonight twice the ninth said
when you uh you talk about infillability
he not only said if a pope was to pronounce heresy you just don't follow him
if you look up then signature and mezzo you will find uh dan singer then single
number uh 3050 following up to 3070 something you will find the
solemn dogma of infallibility after that in the dancing collection you will find
a document that had been written by the german bishops conference because the german reich's cancer the rice
chancellor bismarck challenged that dogma on totally absurd grounds
so the german bishops got together in those days they were catholic the german bishops got together and came
up with the document explaining papal infallibility popeyes the knight saw the document read the document and
signed it so it's his and in that document listen to the terminology of pope pius x now
this document originally is in german so i'm i'm not uh i i read latin as i
read german but i grew up with german the document doesn't say
it explains that bismarck said uh does that mean the infallibility that now the pope is the bishop of
berlin and the bishop of dresden and the bishop of cologne the bishop of munich
of which some people today seem to believe but uh the palestinians just
had the german bishops answer it by saying no if for some reason the bishop of berlin
does not take care of his diocese the pope and mine mind you this is a
literal translation i'm giving you if the bishop of berlin for some reason
doesn't mind the business of his doesn't take care of the business of his diocese
and now comes the literal reputation the pope has to interfere
look at the word he has you find it twice in the same paragraph
that means the german bishops didn't say if for some reason the bishop of so-and-so and such and such
does not take care of his diocese it's in the uh judgment of the pope if he will do
something about it or not they didn't they didn't say that they said the pope has to react
the pope has to interfere twice in one paragraph he has to do it and pause the ninth
signed it christ the knight did nothing else but what his predecessors did
who believed in the old oath of coronation vapor coronation that was an oath the
last time was signed by the predecessor forgot who it was upon pope bonifaciously who became pope in
1302 he was signed uninterruptedly by 600 years of papacy
between pascalis the first and uh bonifaciously confessed the eighth and
that uh oath of incarnation says that he swears he won't change anything that has been handed down from his predecessors
oh because that was just a guarantee of orthodoxy to the holy roman emperor and the kings and that's why after
bonifacio didn't sign it it doesn't mean that it's out of out of
how you say that it has been that's a piece of the past if 600 years for 600 years all the pope
signed it that means it's something accepted in church tradition there's no need to talk signs
it you ought to know it we know that the present book doesn't know it but uh he ought to know it the point i'm making
is papal infallibility what does it mean penguin vulnerability
i wish i could give you a sufficiently detailed answer because the available quotations will
not even the dogma is such because the dogma
for example in 3070 says the holy spirit has not given the success had not been given to the
successes of peter that with his revelation they will pronounce a new doctrine
[Music] but that with his assistance they will
uh faithfully ex saintly guard and faithfully explain
the handed down tradition from the [Music]
