| The Life of a Soul |
Traditional Catholicism
The Roman Catholic Church. The meaning of Redemption. Who
is saved?
The Spiritual Life
The Catholic -- from birth to natural death. What does
he believe? His primary purpose in life is to save his soul. Sanctification -- achieving holiness.
The most necessary prayers. What are the Sacraments and its purpose. Loss of sanctification --
how and why. What are the Virtues? The Works of Mercy -- spiritual and corporal. Sin -- by omission
and commission. The deadly sins, the sins against the Holy Ghost. Sins that cry to Heaven for vengeance.
Sins against Faith, Hope and Charity. Regaining the lost spiritual life. Proper examination of
conscience. What is Sanctifying Grace?
The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
The highest form of prayer most pleasing to God. What
is the meaning of sacrifice? Why it is still valid today as it was in Cain and Abel's time. Worthy
and unworthy sacrifices. How is sacrifice offered to God? Holy Orders.
Tradition
Holy Scriptures and Sacred Tradition. The Church and the
Bible. The Holy Magisterium and hermeneutics. Who is the true interpreter of the Bible and Tradition?
Indefectibility. Inerrancy. Infallibility. The Supreme Pontiff.
The ROMAN Connection is about the restoration of the Roman Rite
The Roman Rite, for all purposes, no longer exists.1 Vestiges of it will be found in certain areas that are not a part of the local Hierarchy, where it is zealously maintained and traditionally kept alive by independent, traditional priests,2 and by faithful Catholics.3 For all intentions, the Roman Rite of Tradition is presently, and perhaps for sometime to come, an underground Church. It is certainly erroneous to believe that it exists within the Conciliar Church, though in some form or semblance it may manifest itself as existing.
The Roman Rite must be restored to its former place in the Church, with all its glory. It is a monumental, almost impossible task, considering the present state of affairs. Insurmountable barriers need to be overcome, and a tyrannical Hierarchy overthrown. But it must be done because the Bride of Christ, The Church, must no longer suffer indignities.
Who must undertake this task?
Quo Vadis, Traditionalist?
The ROMAN Connection
The ROMAN Connection is also a novel about the Roman Catholic Church. Set in the aftermath of the Second Vatican Council, it chronicles in detail the events that have taken place since the closing of the Council. It reflects the new era of the Church relative to modern times.
The ROMAN Connection tells the story of three people whose lives are affected by the changes wrought by Vatican II. It tells of spiritual inspirations and crises of conscience. It is the story about the return to Tradition.
The ROMAN Connection is told from the Traditionalist point of view. TENEBRAE1 is the present working title of the work-in-progress.

Quoniam tu solus Sanctus. Tu solus Dominus. Tu solus Altissimus:
Jesu Christe
Cum Sancto Spiritu: + in gloria Dei Patris. Amen.
[For Thou alone art holy. Thou alone art the Lord. Thou alone art the most high
O Jesus Christ.
Together with the Holy Ghost, + in the glory of God the Father. Amen]
O My God, I believe in Thee, help me in my lack of faith!
[Mark 9:23]

one's whole mind and with one's whole strength. Complete text of Liberalism is a Sin, by Fr. Felix Sarda. Also, a compedium of relevant books on Liberalism,
including excerpts from The Liberal Illusion, by Louis Veuillot and Abp.

X's
enclyclical, Pascendi Dominici Gregis and Lamentabili Sane

FREEMASONRY (still being completed)
PROTESTANTISM
"Brother, Are you saved?" Salvation based on being "born again," through faith
alone, and based on the Bible. Sola fide, sola scriptura: A new religion since 1517 AD. A
Decree promulgated at the Diet of Worms was protested against by the adherents
of this new religion that Catholicism was not going to be tolerated within their borders.
ECUMENISM
ECUMENICAL COUNCILS
A Council must be convoked by the Pope. The Bishops of the Church convene to reform and correct
abuses, to define a doctrine, to condemn a heresy. Since the first Council of Jerusalem, presided by St.
Peter in the year 51 AD, there have been 21 Ecumenical or General Councils thus far. Was there a need to
convoke Vatican II?
THE COUNCIL OF TRENT
It's purpose was to reform the Church which was torn asunder by Protestantism.
THE NEW ORDER OF THE MASS
Is the Novus Ordo Missae a valid form of sacrifice?
