Anyone Who Had a Heart...

The BBC's entertainment correspondent Colin Paterson has described Cilla Black's funeral in the following terms: ''A Cliff Richard solo performance, Christopher Biggins taking Holy Communion and a bishop ordering Paul O'Grady to say three Hail Marys - Cilla Black's funeral had the lot.''

In our previous article, we pointed out that Christopher Biggins was a public promoter of 'gay pride' and had contracted a homosexual civil partnership with another man. We also noted that Paul O'Grady, a patron of the Peter Tatchell Foundation, was known throughout the world for his risque, drag act 'Lily Savage' and for attending gay clubs in London with Cilla Black. Bishop Williams gave Holy Communion to Mr. O'Grady, followed by a reassuring pat on his left arm.

Sadly, it would appear that our concerns about reverence, reception of Holy Communion and grave public scandal were well founded.

Mr. Biggins concluded his reading from Sacred Scripture with the words: ''We will always love you Cilla.'' Newspapers report that Bishop Williams said ''Well done Christopher.''

Whilst Holy Communion was distributed during the Requiem Mass, Cilla Black's secular song Anyone who had a heart was played as 'Communion Music'. Thousands of people lining the local streets are said to have sung along to this as it was piped out by loudspeakers.

Many faithful Catholics have had their hearts broken today by the treatment of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament and the actions of Bishop Tom Williams of the Archdiocese of Liverpool.

The congregation were said to have laughed out loud a number of times during the Mass. They did this when Cliff Richards suggested that Cilla Black had ''beautiful legs'' and also several times during Paul O'Grady's 'Final Tribute' from the church's ambo.

Paul O'Grady used his opportunity to speak of ''hell-raising'' with Cilla Black for two decades. Mainstream media sources report that he then turned to ''apologise'' to Bishop Williams; who, ''to the delight of the chuckling congregation,'' quipped that Mr. O'Grady should say ''Three Hail Marys.'' Remember, this was a Requiem Mass being offered by a bishop of Christ's Church.

Mr O'Grady also spoke of introducing Cilla Black to things in New York like, ''bars, burlesque shows and nightclubs with such reputations that taxi drivers were always unsure'' (about dropping us off).

He even spoke of a guardian angel, ''complete with hooves, horns and a tail.''

The mainstream media and local culture is full of this information about the liturgy tonight.

Readers, we can write no more about these things tonight. We are living through a great apostasy. Perhaps it is the Great Apostasy prophesied in both Sacred Scripture and Tradition. All we can do is implore you to please make reparation for the things we have described here today and to pray for the Archdiocese and the City of Liverpool. 

Bishops of England and Wales: You have a duty to correct your brother in the episcopate. As these scandals are public, your correction needs to be also. You have vocations as Priest, Prophet and King.

Please, do not leave everything up to the laymen.  Â
