many how many many many my Thank you. greetings

greetings pairs your Greetings, parish orphans and retrogrades.

And given you a flavor of that D.A.C.R.A. Old world spice.

D.A. This is a funerary chant. I'm playing it at the beginning of every

rules for retrogrades for the foreseeable future because it's what we love. This is

retrograde. We are romantics here on Rules for Retrogrades. We are erstwhile,

backward looking, pastving, Western civilization-forming,

culture-building, Roman Catholics here on rules for retrogrades.

And in the one holy, true Catholic Catholic, apostolic church.

The four marks of the church mean that we really live in the past, present, and future

combined.

This is what Dickens says the spirit of Christmas is.

I'm not sure how good a Christian Charles Dickens was, but he gets this.

Ebenezer Scrooge by the time he becomes a good man at the end of a Christmas carol, he gets this. To be a good man means to be a good Christian,

which means you emulate Christ's timelessness. It means you live in Christmas past, redeemed man,

time past, Christmas present, Christmas future,

redeemed man, time, present, and future.

And thank you for joining today.

I haven't done a liturgy show in a long time, but it's worth doing today because what I'm seeing online

is strange, a strange phenomenon of young folks for the first time ever attacking tradition.

I mean, I'm not being melodramatic, literally attacking tradition.

And Parish Orvans and Retrogrades, you know, the church is tradition.
