Pope Pius IV;  Giovanni Angelo Medici;  Canon Lawyer:   Recovened and Concluded the Council of Trent;  Ruled the Papal States   B 1499 –  D 1565

Definitive Language In the Bull Cum ex Apostolatus Officio, February 16, 1559, Section 9 We Read:

“We declare that if ever it should appear that any bishop, even one acting as an Archbishop, Patriarch, or Primate, or a Cardinal of the Roman Church, or a legate, or even the Roman Pontiff, whether prior to his promotion to Cardinal, or prior to his election as Roman Pontiff, has beforehand deviated from the Catholic Faith or fallen into any heresy, we enact, we decree, we determine, we define:  Such promotion or election in and of itself, even with the agreement and unanimous consent of all the Cardinals, shall be null, legally invalid, and void.

It shall not be possible for such a promotion or election to be deemed valid or to be valid, neither through reception of office, consecration, subsequent administration, or possession, not even through the putative enthronement of a Roman Pontiff himself, together with the veneration and obedience accorded him by all.

Such promotion or election shall not through any lapse of time in the foregoing situation be considered even partially legitimate in any way.

Each and all of the words,, as acts, laws, appointments of these so promoted or elected – and indeed, whatsoever flows here from – shall be lacking in force, and shall grant no stability and legal power to anyone whatsoever.

Those so promoted or elected, by that very fact, and, without the need to make any further declaration, shall be deprived of any dignity, position, honor, title, authority, office and power.

Therefore, it is permitted to no one to impair this page of approval, renewal, sanction, statute, wills of repeal, of decrees,  or to go contrary to it by a rash daring deed.

If anyone, moreover, will have presumed to attempt this, he will incur the wrath of Almighty God and of blessed Apostles Peter and Paul.”

By:   Famed Geneticist;  Servant of God;   Professor Jerome Lejeune

At the age of one month, a human being measures four millimeters and a half.  Its tiny heart is already beating from one week onwards, its arms, its legs, its head, its brain are already sketched out. he measures some three centimetres from his head to the tip of his buttocks.  Folded up he would fit inside a nutshell.

At two months old, he measures some three centimeters from his head to the tip of his buttocks.  Folded up he would fit inside a nutshell.

Inside a clenched fist he would be invisible, and the clenched fist would crush him without anyone noticing.  But open your hand, and there he is, complete, hands, feet, head, organs, brain, everything in place and only to grow bigger. Look closer, and you could already discern the lines on the hand and tell his fortune.  Look closer still, with an ordinary microscope, and you can make out his fingerprints.  From now on everything is already there to make up his passport.

The incredible Tom Thumb, a man smaller than my thumb, he really exists;  Not the one in the fairy tale, but the one which each of us was, once.

But the brain, someone will say, is only going to be completed in five or six months time.  But no, it will be entirely complete at birth;  but its innumerable links will be forged only at six or seven years old and its chemical and electrical machinery will be fully established at fourteen or fifteen !

The period as embryo is finally ended two months after its having been fertilized.  At this point the little one is as big as my thumb.  And that is why all mothers tell fairy tales to their children about Tom Thumb, for that one is a true story.

Every one of us was once Tom Thumb inside his mother and women have already known that there is a sort of underground country;  a sort of vaulted shelter with a reddish light and a rhythmic sound in which small human beings lead a strange and microscopic life.  And that is the real story of Tom Thumb.

 

Incredible Facts about Servant of God Professor Jerome Lejeune, Author of ‘Tom Thumb’                                                                                                                                        Jerome Jean Louis Marie Lejeune, geneticist:  born Montrouge, France 13 June 1926;  Director or Research, CNRS 1963-94; author of  ‘Discovery of the Extra Chromosome in Trisomy 21’ (mongolisim) 1959, married Birthe Bringsted (two sons, three daughters);  died Paris 3 April 1994.  His list of research and writings cover two 8×11 pages.

A pivotal figure in medical genetics, Prof. Lejeune is best remembered for his discovery 35 years ago of the chromosome abnormality which causes Down’s Syndrome.

Cardinal Fiorenzo Angelini, First President of the dicastery of Pastoral Care of  Health Care Workers opened the cause for Beatification of Professor LeJeune. ?1996

Once, In a sermon, given in St. Peters Basillica, in 1992, Cardinal Angelini stated that his career (as a priest) had suffered because of his positive views on Pope Pius XII.

This appears to be another tale of  Vatican secretive intricacies.

Why?

News of Chromosome 21 being doubled, and, thus being the cause of Downs Syndrome, is buried.  It should not be.  It ‘blows one away’

The Positio for sainthood of Professor Lejeune was delivered to the Congrazione delle Cause Dei Sainti, in Vatican, on May 5, 2007.  It was a culmination of ten years of combined efforts, in Paris and Rome.

Thank God for the introduction of his sainthood by Cardinal Fiorenzo Angelini 

 

“And whence is this that the mother of my Lord should come to me?”

Some Catholic commentators have maintained that the purpose of this visit was to bring divine grace to both Elizabeth and her unborn child.

Even though he was still in his mother’s womb, John became aware of the presence of Christ, and leapt for joy as he was cleansed from original sin and filled with divine grace.

Elizabeth also responded and recognised the presence of Jesus.

And thus … Mary exercised her function as mediatrix between God and man for the first time.

What a nice thought!  Hail Mary, Full of Grace!

 

Pope Paul III 1468-1549 who feared that the “spread of Protestantism would weaken papal authority”  (Wiki). 

 He was the last of the Renaissance Popes and the first of the Counter Reformation, and he wrote the encyclical Sublimus Dei:  On the Enslavement and Evangelization of Indians:

Sublimus Dei:  On the Enslavement and Evangelization of Indians:

The sublime God so loved the human race that He created man in such wise that he might participate, not only in the good that other creatures enjoy, but endowed him with capacity to attain to the inaccessible and invisible Supreme Good and behold face to face;  and since man, according to the testimony of the sacred scriptures, has been created to enjoy eternal life and happiness, which none may obtain save through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, it is necessary that he should possess the nature and faculties enabling him to receive that faith;  and that whoever is thus endowed should be capable of receiving that same faith.  Nor is it credible that any one should possess so little understand so as to desire the faith, and yet, be destitute of the most necessary faculty to receive it.  Hence Christ, who is the Truth itself, which has never failed, and never can fail, said to the preachers of the faith who He chose for that office:

“Go and Teach all Nations”  He said ‘all without exception’ , for all are capable of receiving the doctrines of the faith.”

 

 

 

                                                                 

St. Catherine Tekakawitha was a member of the Algonquin Mohawk tribe of American Indians.  Smallpox swept through the tribes, and, her parents died. She survived with many scars all over her body and face.  She converted to Catholicism at age 19, and, died at age 24.  She was known as ‘The Lily of the Mohawks’ for her purity and when she died, all her scars disappeared, leaving her face with an unearthly radiance and beauty.

 

 

“The enemy of the human race, who opposes all good deeds in order to bring men to destruction, beholding and envying this [capability of receiving the doctrines of the faith], invented a means never before heard of, by which he might hinder the preaching of God’s word of Salvation to the people:  he inspired his satellites who, to please him, have not hesitated to publish abroad that the Indians of the West and the South, and other people of whom We have received recent knowledge that they  should be treated as dumb brutes created for our service, pretending that they are incapable of receiving the Catholic Faith.

 

                                                

We, who, though unworthy, exercise on earth the power of our Lord in certain matters.  We seek with all our might to bring these sheep of His flock, who are outside the flock, into the fold, committed to our charge.  We consider that the Indians are truly men and they they are not only capable of understanding the Catholic Faith but, according to our information,  they desire exceedingly to receive it.

.                                 

Desiring to provide ample remedy for these evils, We define and declare by these Our letters, or by any translation thereof signed by any notary public and sealed with the seal of any ecclesiastical dignitary, to which the same credit shall be given as to the originals, that,

notwithstanding whatever may have been or may be said to the contrary, the said Indians and …

all other people who may later be discovered by Christians, are by no means to be deprived of their liberty or the possession of their property, even though they be outside the faith of Jesus Christ; and that they may and should, freely and legitimately, enjoy their liberty and possession of their property;  nor should they be in any way enslaved …. should the contrary happen, it shall be null and have no effect.

By virtue of Our apostolic authority we define and declare by these present letters, or by any translation thereof signed by any notary public and sealed with the seal of any ecclesiastical  dignitary, which shall thus command the same obedience as the originals, that the said Indians and other peoples should be converted to the faith of Jesus Christ by preaching the word of God and by the example of good and holy living.”

At a meeting of the Pontifical Academy held recently, Pope Francis (shown in white) advocated a policy of decreased national sovereignty and increased global unity.

“A shift towards globalism is necessary” he said, in order to fight climate change and other worldwide threats.”

“There is no space for doubt.  Should the pope’s plan be brought to pass, there would be no liberty as it has been understood by Englishmen and Americans for over 1,000 years.” Joe Wolverton, II, J.D.
