I am a capable, independently-minded female. I have thrived on bringing up four children, an extremely Godly-feeling, instructive, nourishing occupation. I have an elderly husband whom I adore and love to serve. I love God with all my heart. I have been through a great deal of tragedy and come through it with the help of God. That is the context.........in which I will say with entire conviction: I cannot be DOING with priestesses; I wince, I shy away; sorry, but women are not suited to this role. Are they then inferior? Not in the slightest; but: it is a role for a man, and that is a fact; I can feel it in every bone in my body; I look......even at a little thing like the Radio4 Daily Service, to see: is it a man today? most of the time, increasingly, the answer is No. Women can be so over-emotional; yes those emotions are wonderful for relating to the family, a brilliant tool; but in the spiritual sphere, they can be really inappropriate - too subjective, too woolly, too inconsistent. I absolutely wince when I hear a gushing female voice in the church context - it is overpowering, it is too much about Me, whoever that woman is, not enough about God. I go to church to commune with my Maker, not to have the emotionsl of some female getting in the way. Even my local cathedral, the Dean.....has such a COOING voice 😡 I need male calmness, male representation of God my father; oh how reassuring it is to call God Father. Well, that says it all, I do not want a WOMAN conveying that to me, I want a man to do so, to direct me to the Father, the Father who is my pillar of strength. I - as a woman - can thrive, and yes be empowered, through being nurtured in this way.
The Fatherhood of God is the salve to our wounds in this time (and indeed at all times). To be without paternity is to be an orphan. To be a Christian is to accept the adoption of God the Father through Christ the Son. As Christ says in Hebrews, echoing Isaiah: “Behold I and my children, whom God hath given me.” (Heb ii. 13)
Women’s ordination, while a mockery of the Sacrament of Orders, is more aptly a disturbing message to God: Non serviam. By believing the Evil One’s lie that the only good one can do to serve the Church is through being a cleric, the female “ordinand” in diluting the fatherhood of God, takes on the patrimony of Satan.
Her mind taken with the chaos of the diabolic, the faux bishop in question has no choice but spew the lies of racism and patricide. May God spare her of this evil, grant her the grace to abandon her role, and the clarity to see the true vocation He has prepared for her.
It is you honestly that is drawing me back into Christianity and my personal renewal of faith. I know you will humbly not accept this, however I wanted to say this to you. Please keep fighting the good fight. Christ is King…
Oh, but the Archdeacon was inspired to "smash the patriarchy" at a C of E sponsored "Reconciliation" conference.
I intend to post on the abuse of that word later. But in short, the very woke Father of Lies has hijacked the comforting word of reconciliation to cover woke evil.
Thanks, Fr. Calvin, for this amazing blog entry. It will, for sure, have me rushing to click on the "Upgrade to paid" button. You've said so much in just a modest number of words!
This part: "And in order to bring about equality or equity, they want white people to stop being so superior. It is a race to the bottom ..."
reminded me of the Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. short story, Harrison Bergeron. It's a very similar anti-achievement, anti-excellence mindset.
"The purpose of Marxism is to attack God Himself."
True. I think we have to pray for the people who have fallen into this trap. Or has God given them over to their reprobate minds? If He has, we should still pray for them.
Have you read Freedom on the Alter by William Norman Grigg? It seems you have from what you have written.
Fantastic article, Fr. Calvin! Whoever doesn't believe that Marxism is not just an attack against capitalism but an attack against God needs to read "Marx and Satan" by Rev. Richard Wurmbrand, a priest who was captured and held by the 20th-century communist regime in Romania. The book is a blend of his own experiences and his research into Karl Marx's past.
Marx was not an atheist, as many believe—he actually believed in God, he just hated Him. Some of his family members and (scarce) friends thought he may be demon possessed. And just like Satan himself, Marxism's foremost goal is to destroy and demolish everything resembling goodness and order.
Rev. Wurmbrand described his own ordeal in the Romanian prisons, saying that as his captors tortured him and other religious prisoners, they said, "We can't just kill you, then you would just go to Heaven. We want you to renounce your faith." Which is and has been one of the core tenets of global communism: renounce faith in Jesus Christ and God and accept the system/government/technology/science as your master.
You see the same thing in modern liberalism. In the US, a mainstream TV anchor just declared it to be "Christian nationalism" to believe that our God-given rights were given to us by... well, God, and not the government. Of course, she conveniently forgot that in the very pages of the Declaration of Independence (which is not taught to students today anymore), it says, "We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness." The World Economic Forum under Klaus Schwab, with its horrifying transhumanist leanings, declared, "You will own nothing and be happy."
The current culture wars are not between us and the Left. As St. Paul says, "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." (Ephesians 6:12)
Men do not go around complaining that they do not have the capabilities and qualities that women have! Women: demean THEMSELVES by doing this. They shoot themselves in the foot, and then complain!!
Thank you for writing this. Last year, I wrote an article on my why God is masculine.
The masculine acts upon the feminine, not the other way round. Without ‘patriarchy’, there is no Creation. Without ‘patriarchy’, there is no Bridegroom or the Wedding Feast. Without ‘patriarchy’, there is no King of Kings or Prince of Peace.
Reading your words, Fr. Robinson causes my entire being to relax, to sigh, because in a world of lies you speak the truth. The world is upside down, and I often feel on my head and my body is in a constant state of tension. Thank you for your spring breeze of Truth. God is my Father. Christ is His Son. Our Lady is His Mother. Full stop and Amen.
Hi obviously she has forgotten that we are all one in Christ who strengthens us. I am struggling to find a church since they are woke I kid you not I can do Die or whatever it is called training through the Church of Scotland. I look in website's and find they support Gaza rather than Israel whom we're commanded to pray for
No, I do not think the problem is institutionalised Marxism... That is merely a symptom. "We" did not love the truth, therefore we believed the lie and have been deceived! Want to be able to stand in this world? We need to foster a love for and Holy fear of the God who created the heavens and the earth, died to reconcile us to him and will come to rule the new heavens and new earth for eternity!

All I can say is thank you!
Crikey, it was too far for Welby!?!
Yet he's getting the antiwhiteness tzar anyway.
Thankfully there's The Free Church of England to go to so scripture believing Christians can turn their backs on the woke church of England.
I pray that more people will return to Scripture and abandon Marx 3.0 and return to sanity.

What they teach is that white people are superior, everyone else is inferior, and that it is unfair for white people to maintain their superiority.
I never thought about it that way. That explains a lot.
