Cardinal Burke Coming To Steubenville
Is Steubenville moving in the right direction?
This topic is main talk of the TradCatKnight Radio Show for 9/6/15
Cardinal Burke is going to be saying Mass here in Steubenville (at the
Novus Ordo Church I used to attend) in September hosted by the pseudo
traditionalist group Institute of Christ the King. We must pray for
Cardinal Burke's eyes to be opened that Vatican II is not our Faith and
that it must be removed. We cant accept these new teachings and the new
mass as Catholics until then we must keep our distance. Pray the Rosary
for his "eyes" to be opened. Cardinal Burke and ICK are apart of the
false right/conservative crowd that believes Vatican II was
misinterpreted by the "outside" when in reality its the texts
themselves.
EVENT: Pre-Synod Address and Pontifical High Mass - Cardinal Burke at Steubenville - UPDATED
The Synod on the Family: Addressing the Instrumentum Laboris
Keynote: His Eminence Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke
Followed by a Panel Discussion
September 8, 2015
The
Ordinary General Synod of Bishops will meet for the 14th time from
October 4-25, 2015, in the Vatican adressing the theme, "The vocation
and mission of the family in the Church and in the contemporary world."
As the bishops prepare to meet, the "working document" for their preparation and eventual discussion, the Instrumentum Laboris, has received much scrutiny. His Eminence Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke,
the Cardinal Patronus of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, will
deliver a keynote address at Franciscan University concerning the synod
and the issues it will address.
Following his address, Cardinal Burke will be
joined by eight experts in various fields of theology and philosophy.
The members of the panel have all submitted essays on various aspects of
the Instrumentum Laboris for inclusion in a book to be published by Emmaus Road before the synod.
The day will begin with a Pontifical High Mass in the Extraordinary Form offered by Cardinal Burke at St. Peter Parish in downtown Steubenville with sacred music supplied by the University's Schola Cantorum Franciscana, directed by Nicholas Will, professor of Sacred Music, and accompanied on the organ by Andrew Barnick '15.

Points to Consider:
1) I am a graduate of Franciscan University (B.S. MBA) and know most of the priests and faculty.
2)The good: Recognizes something is wrong. Also, I have never heard Cardinal Burke call those rejecting/resisting the Council "heretics or schismatic. But is this good enough? Answer, of course not.
3) Our Lady of Akita warned there would be division amongst the Cardinals and Bishops. This "divide" I believe most can see between the conservatives (still liberal/modernist) and the MORE liberal Cardinals/Bishops.
4) Conservatism does nto save your soul, objectively speaking, only Catholicism will. Be reminded that Pope St. Pius X when he condemned the modernists EVERYONE of the Latin Church was saying the TLM MASS.
5) Pseudo traditionalist "good catholic" argument: I have been hearing this in retort to our position recently yet how is one a "good catholic" compromising on Vatican II, New Mass & Code?
6) Cardinal Burke does not reject the Vatican II Revolution and new Mass( a position which would keep our distance from him). The Council was not Catholic and there are not two forms of the same Catholic Mass. See the evidences below:
Traduttore, traditore is an Italian caveat meaning “Every translator is also somewhat of a traitor.” This indictment came to mind after reading about The Third Edition of the Roman Missal for the English-speaking world, which came into effect on November 27, the first Sunday of Advent.
In view of this slightly changed text of the Novus Ordo Mass, Cardinal Raymond Burke gave an interview to Catholic News Agency on this reform and pointed to a more extensive one that would be on its way. According to him, this reform of liturgy will supposedly bring to light the true message of the Council.
Among the positions Burke holds at the Roman Curia, he is a member of the Vatican's Congregation for Divine Worship, responsible for overseeing the Church's liturgy; hence the importance of his evaluation.
He spoke of the “enrichment” that the new translation of some Latin words introduced into the English text of the Novus Ordo Mass will bring to the Conciliar Church. He attributed this supposed advance to having “greater access” to the traditional Latin Mass. “The celebration of the Mass in extraordinary form [Tridentine Mass] is now less contested and people are seeing the great beauty of the rite as it was celebrated practically since the time of Pope Gregory the Great in the sixth century.” (1)
In this interview, Card. Burke
also envisages the merge into one single rite of the Novus Ordo such as
approved by Paul VI and the Tridentine Mass, as allowed by Benedict XVI
in the Summorum Pontificum. He said: “It seems to me that what he [the
Pope] has in mind is that this mutual enrichment would seen to naturally
produce a new form of the Roman rite - the reform of the reform, if we
may - all of which I would welcome and look forward to its advent.” (2)
Here we have another confirmation by a Vatican official that we are
heading to a hybrid Mass. Indeed, we heard
Card. Kurt Koch saying something similar last year.
Burke also affirmed that he is grateful to John Paul II and Benedict XVI for giving the Church “a font of solid direction” regarding worship, “based on the Second Vatican Council's vision of a God-centered liturgy and not a man-centered liturgy.” (3)
This sentence stands in radical opposition to the truth. Volumes have been written demonstrating the detrimental character of the Novus Ordo Mass. Its liturgical ethos ranges from Protestantism to Voodooism in forms of worship; from vulgarity to outright sensuality in the inculturated ways of following the Mass; from Communism to Tribalism in the messages delivered in the sermons - to list only some of its deleterious consequences.
Fortunately, we need not consult the long list of articles and books on the subject of the devastation caused by the New Mass, because a single author has condensed the entire Council into the Collection Eli Eli,Lamma Sabacthani?, a veritable small library that eviscerates the progressivist plan to destroy the Church that took shape at Vatican II. Part and parcel of that plot was the introduction of the New Mass in all of its disfigurement.
The portrait of the New Mass, spawned by Vatican II, can be condensed into a few lines. After carefully analyzing the 16 conciliar documents, Mr. Atila S. Guimaraes explains the ambiguities insinuated in those documents. “Because the conciliar texts are ambiguous,” he affirms, “they can be used to greater or lesser degree by any of the currents – conservative or progressivist – in order to draw as much advantage for its own camp as possible. And any discussion based on the letter of the conciliar documents will be doomed to wear itself out for lack of unity of doctrinal points of reference. Since there are difficulties with the letter, one must seek in the spirit of the Council the elements required to interpret it correctly.” (4)
This being said, the pretension that the “new translation” of certain Latin words into the text of the Novus Ordo Mass will benefit Catholic orthodoxy is like saying the application of mercurochrome to a headshot from a .30 caliber will heal it. To heal the apocalyptical crisis that Vatican II institutionalized in the Church, the documents of the Council, its spirit and its fruits must be analyzed as a whole. A band-aid with the re-translation of a few words will not heal this gaping wound. As St. Teresa of Avila once noted, it is “the greatest cruelty to use ointment where it is necessary to cut deep with steel and cauterize with fire.”

This attempt to beguile Catholics by adorning the Novus Ordo with a new translation is hardly cause célèbre. Several years ago even the laic Washington Post
observed that Benedict's “reform of the reform doesn't equal a return
to the past. ... Indeed, Benedict's reforms are rapidly creating
something entirely new in Catholicism (whereas the new changes) and
other modifications made the ‘traditional’ Mass more a hybrid than a
restoration.” (5)
Now, after these last five decades of the application of Vatican II with the unanimous approval of the Popes and Bishops causing a colossal havoc in the Church, we have this timid half-apology by Card. Burke trying to attribute everything to a few badly translated words.
Are Catholics expected to believe that the progressivist experts of yore, who wrote the English version of the Novus Ordo, could not make an accurate translation of the Latin back then, but now the present day specialists can? Actuality, the new translation is a frank confession that something is amiss, and that the progressivists are quite aware of it. And Card. Burke’s valiant defense of the indefensible – the faulty New Mass – reveals he is part of the progressivist game.
In Volume VI of his Collection, Guimarães uncovers the “mind” of the fathers of Vatican II: “Until the convening of the Council, the Catholic Church was conceived as theocentric [entering on or directed toward God]; after the Council it has been presented as anthropocentric [considering man as the central fact or final aim of the universe, conceiving of everything in the universe in terms of human value]. This anthropocentrism found in conciliar documents and even in declarations of Popes consists in adopting certain humanist ideas of the revolutionary process, which has been undermining Christian Civilization since the end of the Middle Ages.” (6)
These few words stand in direct contradiction to what Card. Burke affirmed in defense of Vatican II, when he pretended that the Council wanted a God centered Church. It was not some few words of the translation that cause it to become centered on man. It was the entire revolutionary philosophy and theology behind the changes of the Council.
May Our Lady of Good Counsel shine some light on the soul of the Cardinal Burke and those who follow his syndrome of trying to mix the good with the bad.
A. I grew up in a very beautiful time in the Church, in which we were carefully instructed in the faith, both at home and in the Catholic school, especially with the Baltimore Catechism. I remember the great beauty of the Sacred Liturgy, even in our little farming town, with beautiful Masses. And then, I'm of course most grateful for my parents who gave me a very sound up-bringing in how to live as a Catholic. So they were beautiful years.
Q. A friend of mine who was born after the Council used to say, "Not everything was good in the old days, but everything was better." What do you think about this?
A. Well, we have to live in whatever time the Lord gives us. Certainly, I have very good memories of growing up in the 1950's and early 1960's. I think what is most important is that we appreciate the organic nature of our Catholic Faith and appreciate the Tradition to which we belong and by which the Faith has come to us.
Q. Did you embrace the big changes after the Council with enthusiasm?
A. What happened soon after the Council - I was in the minor seminary at that time, and we followed what was happening at the Council - but the experience after the Council was so strong and even in some cases violent, that I have to say that, even as a young man, I began to question some things - whether this was really what was intended by the Council - because I saw many beautiful things that were in the Church suddenly no longer present and even considered no longer beautiful. I think, for instance, of the great tradition of Gregorian Chant or the use of Latin in the celebration of the Sacred Liturgy. Then also, of course, the so-called 'Spirit of Vatican II' influenced other areas - for instance, the moral life, the teaching of the Faith - and then we saw so many priest abandoning their priestly ministry, so many religious sisters abandoning religious life. So, there were definitely aspects about the post-conciliar period that raised questions.
Q. You were ordained a priest in 1975. Did you think that something in the Church had gone wrong?
A. Yes, I believe so. In some way, we lost a strong sense of the centrality of the Sacred Liturgy and, therefore, of the priestly office and ministry in the Church. I have to say, I was so strongly raised in the Faith, and had such a strong understanding of vocation, that I never could refuse to do what Our Lord was asking. But I saw that there was something that had definitely gone wrong. I witnessed, for instance, as a young priest the emptiness of the catachesis. The catechetical texts were so poor. Then I witnessed the liturgical experimentations - some of which I just don't even want to remember - the loss of the devotional life, the attendance at Sunday Mass began to steadily decrease: all of those were signs to me that something had gone wrong.
A. No, I would not have imagined it. Although, I also have to say that I find it very normal, because it was such a beautiful rite, and that the Church recovered it seems to me to be a very healthy sign. But, at the time, I must say that the liturgical reform in particular was very radical and, as I said before, even violent, and so the the thought of a restoration didn't seem possible, really. But, thanks be to God, it happened.
Q. Juridically, the Novus Ordo and the Traditional Latin Mass are the same rite. Is this also your factual experience when you celebrate a Pontifical High Mass in the new or the old rite?
A. Yes, I understand that they are the same rite, and I believe that, when the so-called New Rite or the Ordinary Form is celebrated with great care and with a strong sense that the Holy Liturgy is the action of God, one can see more clearly the unity of the two forms of the same rite. On the other hand, I do hope that - with time - some of the elements which unwisely were removed from the rite of the Mass, which has now become the Ordinary Form, could be restored, because the difference between the two forms is very stark.
Q. In what sense?
A. The rich articulation of the Extraordinary Form, all of which is always pointing to the theocentric nature of the liturgy, is practically diminished to the lowest possible degree in the Ordinary Form.
A. Yes, they do. I think that the report that was given at the mid-point of the session of the Synod, which just ended October 18th, is perhaps one of the most shocking public documents of the Church that I could imagine. And, so, it is a cause for very serious alarm and it's especially important that good Catholic families who are living the beauty of the Sacrament of Matrimony rededicate themselves to a sound married life and that also they use whatever occasions they have to give witness to the beauty of the truth about marriage which they are experiencing daily in their married life.
Q. High-ranking prelates keep giving the impression that "progress" in the Church lays in promoting the gay agenda and divorce ideology. Do they believe that these things will lead to a new springtime in the Church?
A. I don't know how they could believe such a thing, because, how could it be that, for instance, divorce - which the Pastoral Constitution on the Church Gaudium et Spes called a plague in society - how could it be that the promotion of homosexual acts, which are intrinsically evil, how could any good come from either? And, in fact, what we witness is that both result in a destruction of society, a breakdown of the family, the breakdown of the fiber of society, and, of course, in the case of unnatural acts, the corruption of human sexuality which is essentially ordered to marriage and to the procreation of children.
Q. Do you think that the main problem in vast territories of the Church is the lack of Catholic families and especially the lack of Catholic children? Should that not have been the focus of the Synod?
A. I believe so, very much so. The Church depends on sound Catholic family life, and it depends on sound Catholic families . I do believe that, where the Church is suffering most, there also marriage and family life is suffering. We see that when in marriage couples are not generous in bringing new human life into the world, their own marriages diminish, as well as society itself. We witness in many countries that the local population, which in many cases would be Christian, is disappearing because the birthrate is so low. And some of these places - for instance, where there is also a strong presence of individuals who belong to Islam - we find that the Muslim life is taking over in countries which were formerly Christian.
A. I would imagine so. I do not have direct experience of what you are describing. From my own time as bishop of La Crosse, Wisconsin and as archbishop of Saint Louis, Missouri, I have heard this said about dioceses in certain European nations where the dioceses are practically unable to continue, yet there is a strong presence of those who belong to the Society of St. Pius X. I cannot help but think that the bishops in those places must take note of it and must reflect upon it.

Cardinal Burke On Vatican II
Q. Your Eminence, you grew up before the Second Vatican Council. How do you remember those times?A. I grew up in a very beautiful time in the Church, in which we were carefully instructed in the faith, both at home and in the Catholic school, especially with the Baltimore Catechism.

Then I witnessed the liturgical experimentations - some of which I just don't even want to remember - the loss of the devotional life, the attendance at Sunday Mass began to steadily decrease: all of those were signs to me that something had gone wrong.
On the Two Forms of Holy Mass
Q. Would you have imagined in 1975 that, one day, you would offer Mass in the rite that was abandoned for the sake of renewal?A. No, I would not have imagined it. Although, I also have to say that I find it very normal, because it was such a beautiful rite, and that the Church recovered it seems to me to be a very healthy sign. But, at the time, I must say that the liturgical reform in particular was very radical and, as I said before, even violent, and so the the thought of a restoration didn't seem possible, really. But, thanks be to God, it happened.

On the other hand, I do hope that - with time - some of the elements which unwisely were removed from the rite of the Mass, which has now become the Ordinary Form, could be restored, because the difference between the two forms is very stark.
Q. In what sense?
A. The rich articulation of the Extraordinary Form, all of which is always pointing to the theocentric nature of the liturgy, is practically diminished to the lowest possible degree in the Ordinary Form.
On the 2014 Synod
Q. The Synod on the Family has been a shock and sometimes even a scandal, especially for young Catholic families who are the future of the Church. Do they have reasons to worry?A. Yes, they do. I think that the report that was given at the mid-point of the session of the Synod, which just ended October 18th, is perhaps one of the most shocking public documents of the Church that I could imagine. And, so, it is a cause for very serious alarm and it's especially important that good Catholic families who are living the beauty of the Sacrament of Matrimony rededicate themselves to a sound married life and that also they use whatever occasions they have to give witness to the beauty of the truth about marriage which they are experiencing daily in their married life.

And some of these places - for instance, where there is also a strong presence of individuals who belong to Islam - we find that the Muslim life is taking over in countries which were formerly Christian.
On the Society of St. Pius X
Q. In many parts of Western Europe and the U.S., the only parishes who still have children belong to the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X, while whole dioceses are deserted. Do the bishops take notice of this?A. I would imagine so. I do not have direct experience of what you are describing. From my own time as bishop of La Crosse, Wisconsin and as archbishop of Saint Louis, Missouri, I have heard this said about dioceses in certain European nations where the dioceses are practically unable to continue, yet there is a strong presence of those who belong to the Society of St. Pius X. I cannot help but think that the bishops in those places must take note of it and must reflect upon it.
Cardinal Burke like other pseudo traditionalists believe vatican 2 was merely misinterpreted by the outside which is not true the texts themselves are erronoeus and even heretical
"Excitement following the council, linked to the establishment of a new
church which teaches freedom and love, has strongly encouraged an
attitude of indifference toward church discipline, if not even
hostility," he said. "The reforms of ecclesial life which were hoped for
by the council fathers were, therefore, in a certain sense, hindered if
not betrayed."
Burke told the Vatican synod, which has been dedicated to revival of the faith in traditionally Christian but increasingly secular societies, that the new evangelization calls for restoration of the "disciplinary tradition of the church and respect of the law in the church."
7) Will Cardinal Burke be one of those prelates who sees "the Light" after the shakeup in Rome?
8)Steubenville moving in the right direction? On certain levels yes but still no wheres near sufficient to suggest Franciscan is orthodox. There can be no mixing with Light and Darkness no mixing between the Catholic And Novus Ordo Religion (cult of God vs cult of Man) ALL of this "new" pertains to the cult of man and does not represent the Catholic Religion.
I think we all see which way the "winds" are blowing. The formal schism closes in on us and there is too much emphasis being placed on the Synod. Why? We cant follow Popes, prelates and priests teaching heresies let alone a whole new religion. These churchmen will be excommunicated one day what they teach doesn't matter (because of their erroneous perception of Church, Religion, Tradition, etc). Furthermore, Francis is not even the true Pope. Pray the Rosary my friends for conversions out of the Novus Ordo Religion....
