A Letter from Glasgow

Editor, The Remnant: I enjoy reading and listening to the Remnant. I am 70 years old from East Kilbride near Glasgow and seven years ago ‘the lights came on’and I found a Church in Glasgow offering the Traditional Latin Mass. This was because of the many abuses that were going on in my home parish. I can now serve it!

Won’t get many marks out of 10 though!

I am old enough to remember the Latin Mass and realize now we were all sold a pup fifty odd years ago. The past six years have been even worse than I expected under this pontificate Keep up the good work. Yours sincerely, Tom Finnigan

Lessons of Captain Cook

Editor, The Remnant: When Captain Cook visited Tahiti there was a colossal crash of cultures, Enlightenment Protestantism met primordial paganism.

Cook was not particularly pious, but he was compelled by British law to conduct "divine service" for his men. He invited some Tahitians to attend and was impressed by how closely they imitated the English in kneeling and standing, and they intuitively remained respectful and silent.

In return, the Tahitians invited Cook and his men to one of their religious services.

A grown man and a fifteen-year-old girl copulated publicly while the crowd cheered. The English were informed that these were members of the priestly class, and that any children who happened to be born from these ceremonies were killed.

The United States is now worshiping these same devils, who promise unlimited free sex, but still demand the same hideous sacrifice in return.

Bible Talk

Editor, The Remnant: My research has now been published with the esteemed journal for New Testament scholarship Neotestamentica and is as from this month available online as open access.

I provide a summary of the results and implications, as well as a journal site link to the download at: https://zuiddam.

wordpress.com/2019/02/05/nova-vulgatabetrays- traditional-vulgate/ This research uses an objective quantative method, Greek word count, to prove that these things are so. Luther’s New Testament is practically identical with the Vulgate, while the Vatican’s clearly is not. All major incidents of missing (parts of) verses in modern Catholic Bibles are accounted for.

Catholic Is as Catholic Does

Editor, The Remnant: I read with particular interest the article by Clare Wilson, "Lost Crisis: The Modern Crisis of Catholic Formation" in the January 31 issue of The Remnant. In the article she said, "Twenty percent of students are Catholic, but only fifteen percent of these Catholics practice."

That reminded me of a night class I took at the local secular university: "Roman Catholic Theology Today." As part of the class the students, of which there were 26, as pairs were instructed to come up with a class that we were to conduct dealing with a controversial topic. The person I paired with and I decided to have a class on abortion, complete with a questionnaire to find out how much the media and its lies had misinformed them about the issue of abortion.

In the course of the class we instructed the class of mostly married Catholics, many of them couples, of the true nature of the abortifacient nature of the pill. Out of 24 Catholics, only four were against contraception. Unfortunately, even after being told about the abortifacient nature of the pill, especially the estrogen only mini-pill, they expressed that they would not do without it. (The class was evenly split men and women, with 26 being the median age.) The only redeeming aspect was that 85 percent of the class were against surgical abortion.

In retrospect, how can any Catholic really believe the use of hormonal birth control, especially the abortifacients like the pill, is of grave concern to the unborn child, when you hardly ever hear a Sunday sermon about it? I remember a very conservative Catholic priest was lamenting how even he didn’t bring up the subject very often. Even something as horrible as abortion is generally only brought up during the January anniversary of Roe vs. Wade and maybe Pro-life Sunday, if even then. As in the Book of Hosea: "My people perish for lack of knowledge."

Nothing Personal, Just Business

Editor, The Remnant: I’m quite sure that Michael Corleone would be more upset about excommunication than Andrew Cuomo.

American Traditional Catholics Remember the Vendee!

Editor, The Remnant:

Here at St.

Vincent Ferrer’s school in the Diocese of Palm Beach County, the staff and families are celebrating national Catholic Schools Week. While the woes of Novus Ordo school land do not need to be repeated, there are certain lay and religious here trying to offer some Catholic ground for the children to stand on, if you will. (Also, we are members of the Latin Mass Society of the Palm Beaches, attending the TLM.)A yearly tradition is the Battle of the Colors, with each grade being given a certain color that represents a virtue or Catholic beliefmy daughter’s 2nd grade is "red" for the Sacred Heart. You can see in the picture the Sacred Heart of Vendée she created and will be wearing this Thursday. Please pray for this future Soldier of Christ! Pax, Craig J. Paulitz South Florida

Becoming Nazis!

Editor, The Remnant: On Sept. 26th, 1996, WI’s then-Senator, Russ Feingold, was unable to say on the U.S. Senate floor whether his support for "partial-birth" abortion would preclude the killing a newly born baby. This week’s events show that what may have once only been discussed in committees or covens is now "mainstream" thinking at the top of our political and media chains.

As a person born with a physical disability, it is chilling but not surprising, to hear VA Governor, Ralph Northam’s, comments that "…if a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen, the infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother."

Note, this newly born citizen apparently
