Halloween Mass
I am simply at a loss for words.

Can masses of reparation be offered by faithful priests when things like this take place?
"... and Jesus wept."
This makes me sick to my stomach. Perhaps the priest in this clip -- I could not watch all of it -- has a brain tumor.
Now There is a new angle! The devil handing out the Eucharist and a witch singing. Gee How original is that? Of course I am being sarcastic. This is just absurd and outrageous. They have this on film! Can't they see how ridiculous this is?
OK. I found words. Note: Highly uncharitable.
1. Note the male EMC pouring the Precious Blood into seemingly aluminum cups.
2. What is that altar made of? Is that a support column in the middle of it?
3. What’s with that picture leaning on the column?
4. At least they’re imploring God’s pity and mercy.
5. Note the casual way Father hands the cups and patens to the EMC’s … just like your server at your local restaurant.
6. Note the reception of Communion by some parishioners.
7. The one “angel” singer has some cool shades.
8. His job done, Father sits while Communion is still being distributed.
9. He sits with his eyes closed as the choir implores Jesus to open their eyes. Open them Lord. Please, open them!
10. The smiling punk demon EMC heads back to the “altar” for more.
11. The one communicant really knows how to chomp down on that Host.
12. It looks like Spock sat down just in time for the homily. Homily?
13. “twisted.” Duh.
14. Father’s remarks regarding the tragedy of abuse is scandalous in itself.
15. “goblins and ghouls” Horror.
16. “…nothing except this,” when referring to Sacred Vesture.
17. The Aadams Family theme is played as Father goes to change into costume.
18. The musicians rock as Father makes a dinosaur of himself.
I actually cried when I first viewed this. I was going to be silent, but I am so angry about the outright scandalous behavior that I needed to vent. I am sorry if I have offended anyone by my comments. This is why I support Reform of the Reform or a wider application of the TLM.
This is not an aberration. Certainly it was more common in past years, but those poor people who think this is the way the Church should be, are greatly deceived--deceived by Satan himself as he robs souls of their salvation in Jesus Christ.
Agree or disagree, I care not. This evening I will be offering a complete Rosary of reparation for the immortal souls of anyone who has been harmed by this. Satan be damned!
Oh, what pretty aluminum tumblers! That's so fifites... retro is in! Oh, wait... THOSE ARE CHALICES?
Umm.. why is the priest sitting down and hanging out while the EMHC give out Communion? I thought they were to be used when there weren't enough priests to go around, not when he decided to "take 5".
Why, oh why, was there no warning before I played this - Caution! May Induce Seizures!
And people wonder why I drive for an hour to attend the Latin Mass.
Horrifying!!!
Can anything be done? Can displinary action be taken against that priest?
