Fatima and Priestly Chivalry

Fr. Angelo Mary laments how we have put the rope in our enemies' hands.
The Holy Father has been taking a beating lately on behalf of his sinful sons in the priesthood.  ”The pope will have much to suffer,” Our Lady told the children at Fatima.  This has been realized in every pope since the time of the apparitions, but we wonder if Our Lady had these days and this pope particularly in mind.
None of us should be particularly surprised or even disturbed by the assaults of the enemies of the Church.  This is nothing new or unexpected.  For if in the green wood they do these things, what shall be done in the dry? Our Lord said on the day he died (Lk23:31).  History has played itself out, just as he predicted.
