A New Unpleasant, Disagreeable Odor?!

 Preamble: 

A certain Faithful from one our missions was in town and during a chat in which he explained the reason for his visit, he wanted to mention that the event that brought him was connected with family members who are "typically pentecostal". However, by a slip of finger he ended up typing for me "typically Novus odor". 

When I read "Novus odor", I simply took it that he wanted to type "Novus Ordo", the popular short form for the Modernist so-called "Novus Ordo Missae" , i.e. the "new order of the Mass", which short form is frequently used to represent the entirety of the Modernist hybrid ecumenical pan-religion being imposed on unsuspecting Catholics in Catholic buildings all over the world. This chat became the immediate occasion for this literary exercise... 

No Difference Anyway...

Re-reading his text, the fellow wrote back to correct his mistake: "Sorry, they're typical Pentecostal not Novus odor" said he. I quipped "Smiles... There is no difference after all 😄". And, his reply was topnotch: "Yes, just the nomenclature Catholic attached to their name is the difference".  

Perhaps, someone, having an unformed and uninformed Catholic Common Sense may say nay! A picture, they say, speaks a thousand words: 

N.B: two of these pictures above have the nomenclature "Catholic" attributed to them, thus a nominal difference...; good luck spotting what may pass for a substantial difference....  

An Etymological Frolicking 

Shortly after the last reply from the Faithful in question,  the idea of gleaning from the expression "Novus odor" a sort of 'pigin Latin' slipped into my mind and it amused me: thinking it a combination of a Latin word "Novus" meaning 'new', and an English word "odor", so new odor...

Well, conceiving an idea of the root of the English word  "Odoriferous" I was quickly set on the track to abandon any 'pigin Latin' adventure whatsoever. Why so?A Latin dictionary revealed that "odor" is indeed a proper Latin word which means "a smell, scent, odor".  So, "Novus odor" simply means "new odor, scent, smell".

 But what has that to do with the Modernist Ecumenical Mess falsely called the "new order or the Mass", the ritual expression of their impostor religion? 

Well, everything!

Assuming for instance that each heresy that has asailed the Church since the Apostolic age always had a characteristic unpleasant, disagreeable stench, odor, this leads us on a track to unraveling the link we seek... 

So, if each heresy  has always had a characteristic unpleasant, disagreeable stench, odor,  recalling that Modernism is the "synthesis of all heresies" [Pascendi Dominic Gregis, no. 39] it stands to reason that a synthesis of many distinct unpleasant, disagreeable stenches should produce a "new unpleasant, disagreeable stench" a "new unpleasant, disagreeable odor", does it not? 

Meanwhile, considering that this ecumenical mess falsely called the new order of the Mass is a synthetic product of the collaboration of six protestant pastors with a commission of Modernist liturgical wreck-novators, who would be surprised that it should have a characteristic oozing of a "new unpleasant, disagreeable odor"? 

Now, everyone with an informed Catholic Common Sense has an idea of how pungent and poisonous this Modernist hybrid new odor is... 

Rounding up...

Yes, if each heresy could be distinguished by a characteristic unpleasant, disagreeable odor, a synthesis of all heresies is certainly to produce a new characteristic unpleasant, disagreeable odor. 

What must a Christian do in the face of a heresy, a strange teaching from anyone whosoever? St. Paul insists: 

"As we said before, so now I say again: If any one preach to you a gospel, besides that which you have received, let him be anathema." (Gal. 1:9)

Now, they are some who are bent on seeing a hermeneutics of continuity between that religion born of the synthesis of all heresies and the Religion founded by the God-Man. These do not anathematize those who promote and impose this new religion born of a synthesis of "strange teachings", rather they anathematize those who "contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints" (Jude 1:3).

Meanwhile, some version of this contrary-to-fact hermeneutics of continuity insists that the Modernist hybrid  Ecumenical pan-religion, a new religion for sure, with it's new characteristic unpleasant, disagreeable odor, constitute the subsisting, and indispensable, material-legal structure of the Mystical Body of a Christ because the nomenclature 'Catholic' is tenaciously retained. Oops! That's sad, isn't it?
