The Remnant Speaks
Letters to the Editor: The Remnant Speaks P.O. Box 1117, Forest Lake, MN 55025 ~ Editor@RemnantNewspaper.com Another Ray of Hope for Trump
Editor, The Remnant: I just read your article in the November 20th issue about Kellyanne Conway. Here's another hopeful sign: Donald Trump's chief advisor and campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway is a Catholic mother of four, who stays home to make breakfast every morning for her kids and then goes to Mass. She's a daily communicant! She took Donald Trump to meet Father George Rutler, Anglican convert priest and pastor of the Church of Our Savior in Mahattan, who blessed our next president, just before his election.

Thanks, Remnant!
Editor, The Remnant: Thank you, Mr.
Matt, for your end-of-the-year update, the kind words for your audience, and most of all for the priceless work you all are doing for the One True Church of Jesus Christ. But for the Remnant, I probably would still be slogging through the neo-Catholic wilderness feeling like I was the only one wondering where the real Church went. God bless all of you at the Remnant and all here on the Remnant website!

The Chilean Revolution and the Hidden Hand of Freemasonry
Editor, The Remnant: Thanks for The Remnant’s Dec. 5 story concerning Michael Lambie’s heroic part in militantly opposing the 19701973 Marxian takeover of the government of Chile in South America ("A Catholic Hero Flies His Last Mission"---RIP). This is of historical importance since it further exposes the Cuban connection of the evil Castro brothers, who were virtually "hugged" by Pope Francis in his recent unfortunate visit to Marxist Cuba.
Could beatification of "Karl Marxthe- Revolutionary" be the next bloody insult to traditional Christianity? Pause here for meditation on the millions of political murders perpetrated in the name of Marxism, and of its Utopian "New Order".
The Remnant article did not note its author--perhaps a Lambie family member, who may have still more to add to this struggle against these "liberation revolutionaries". It should be noted that the 1970’s were alive with anti-Catholic bigotry and hatred of the Church, and such still with us on all sides and levels of "New Order" Globalism.
This Michael Lambie story awakened me to another Chilean episode in its struggle against godless Communism, during the half-century "Cold War" (1946-1991).
This Chilean incident occurred in my own neighborhood near the "Embassy Row" in Northwest Washington, D.C.
(Sheridan Circle), Sep. 21, 1976. A Chilean embassy car coming into Sheridan Circle was suddenly hit by a remote-control bomb, which killed an important passenger, former Chilean ambassador Orlando Letelier, a "Leftist" opponent of Chilean President, General Agusto Pinochet, who had overthrown the Socialist (Marxistoriented) junta of Salvador Allende in 1973. A virtual refugee, Letelier was in hiding from Gen. Pinochet, while busily working against his regime.
Active in Santiago, Chile, was the DINA, Chilean National Intelligence Directorate. With so many doubleagents at work in this revolutionary episode, it seems difficult to sort out the various "agent-provocateurs". At the time my private sympathy was with President-General Pinochet, as the "good-guy". And after absorbing the facts given in The Remnant article, I still favor Gen. Pinochet. There are doubtless thousands of heroes in this story, one being Michael Lambie.
During all of the actual commotion of this Chilean revolution, the hidden hand of Freemasonry is evident in South America, always in support of Lucifer.
Of religious interest concerning revolutionary events of 1970-2000 in Chile, a dominant figure was the Archbishop of Santiago and Primate of Chile, Cardinal Jose-Maria Caro (died 1958), a traditionalist orthodox Catholic prelate who wrote a most important tome against Judeo-Masonry, "The Mystery of Freemasonry Unveiled", revealing its Satanic core. Cardinal Caro put his finger on what was a cause of political instability in all of Latin America, now seen in the destructive issue of "Liberation Theology" and its political "Liberation" off-shoots. This is still very much alive all over South America, with Cuba and Venezuela most visible victims of the underlying Masonic "Alta Vendita" conspiracy. Masonic "agentprovocateurs" create a crisis, and then exploit its opportunity. Simon Bolivar is the supposed "liberator" of South and Central America. "Liberating" from what? Spanish Catholicism?
Promotion of revolution created an anti-Catholic, anti-Spanish vacuum, which was quickly filled by the ready-made antidote of Freemasonry. Unfortunately, too many Chileans of the twentieth century disregarded their real native hero, Cardinal Caro, a faithful servant of Christ-the-King. This fertile land of the Andes needs men of Faith.

The Elephant in the Sanctuary
Editor, The Remnant: Many thanks to Fr. John A. Hardon and his Sunday classes at Domino’s Farms in Ann Arbor Michigan. Father Hardon declared that the purpose of his classes was to re-teach the Faith. Father also said in the late 90’s that all priests needed to be retrained due to the degenerated state of Catholic seminaries since Vatican II. After many classes and Q and A’s, things became clearer. Father usually took the time to answer everyone’s queries after class. As you can imagine, there were many questions regarding liturgy. Not surprisingly, the topic of valid consecrations came up repeatedly, so Father devoted a specific teaching for that subject. He took the time to delineate validity and illicit elements inherent in the new Mass. We learned that illicit things don’t necessarily constitute a fatal breach to the consecration itself. The sacrament can be confected despite some illicit elements, e.g. ambiguous Eucharistic prayers, chanting false mysteries of faith, female servers etc. Father broke down what is absolutely necessary to the act of consecration. He taught his students the minimum of what is required in order to have the miracle of Christ’s real presence present on the altar. Unleavened wheat, wine, required words: "This is my body"," This is my blood" and the intention by the celebrating priest to confect the sacrament. Having the benefit of this knowledge actually caused us to walk out of a couple of "Catholic" Masses where, knowingly or not, the priest took license with essentials.
So our senses are our assurance; sight, hearing and taste verify valid matter and the proper words. But, intention is of another matter altogether. We can only go by decorum. If the priest’s actions and gestures are casual or just plain sloppy, one can only wonder about his actual "intention". A serious lack of solemnity should raise questions. Was the consecration valid? We’re not mind readers. We do know for certain that an elephant ritually makes an appearance during the post-consecration response to the Mystery of Faith proclamation. Chanted are words… Let us proclaim "the Mystery of Faith". Then the congregation trumpets: "When we drink this cup and eat this bread we proclaim your death Lord Jesus until you come again…", or: " Christ has died Christ has risen, Christ will come again…" Neither of these responses are proper to "THE Mystery of Faith", yet the people joyfully sing these prepared responses that just don’t make sense. Okay, so, Christ has died, Christ has risen (past tense), Christ will come again (future tense), all serve as camouflage blocking what took place before our eyes and ears in the present. Which of these words can the truth be in? His death, resurrection or return? Surprise! None of the above.
Is this why Christ refers to us as a sheep? Catholic sheeple all chant these false mantras hundreds of thousands of times across the globe every day. Is this
