Robert Higdon, Homo Subculture & Breviaries
Sodomite Subculture in Seminaries
Salve Maria!
This appeared in my Substack today and thought it was worth passing on: A priest explains, by way of the recent ordination of a sodomite former billionaire, that the clergy is made up of majority sodomites, and that seminaries have a strong sodomite subculture.
I believe it is worth alerting your readers, particularly those who are optimistic about the situation in the Church and even think it a good idea to send their boys to seminaries. Also good to remember that doctrinal filth (heterodoxy i.e. progressivism) goes hand in hand with moral filth (in this case sodomy).
In Jesu et Maria,
S.B.

Fr. Serra’s Heroic Efforts
Salve Maria!
Inspired by the pilgrimage TIA hosted, I reread a bit about Fr. Serra’s life and found this quote to be incredibly inspiring:
"Let those who are to come here as missionaries not imagine that they are coming for any other purpose but to endure hardships for the love of God and for the salvation of souls."
It gives us a glimpse of the tremendous sacrifice and strength of will it took to undertake the missionary work in Alta California - more difficult even than in Mexico because of the loneliness and total lack of normal comforts of civilization. It was truly a labor of love for God and souls.

What Roman Breviary?
My name is C.B. and I love TIA. I was wondering what Roman Breviary does TIA recommend the laity to use? 1962, 1954, earlier?
Thanks, and hope to hear from you soon!
In Christo et Maria,
C.B.

TIA responds:
Hello C.B.,
We recommend Divini Afflatu Breviaries. These are the Breviaries after the good reform of St. Pius X in 1911, but before the progressivist reforms that began with Pope Pius XII.
The progressivist reforms started as early as 1945, when Pope Pius XII introduced a Psalter that was in Classical Latin, and not from the Vulgate, which bypassed and undermined centuries of tradition. This was called the Pian Psalter and should be avoided, if possible, because it has different words than the Vulgate. The real demolition began with the 1955 Holy Week, and then the 1962 Missal and Breviary.
Please note: Breviaries were traditionally divided into four volumes for each of the four seasons:
- Pars Hiemalis (The Winter Part)
- Pars Verna (The Spring Part)
- Pars Aestiva (The Summer Part)
- Pars Autumnalis (The Autumn Part)
To summarize, we would recommend breviaries that were printed in the period 1911-1945. The 1945 Pian Psalter only complicates things with the different Latin translation of the Psalms.
As far as we know, most Catholic laity did not have Breviaries or pray the full Divine Office, which was mostly reserved for religious since there were eight canonical hours. There was, however, the Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which was widely said, especially in the Middle Ages. The Little Office had regional variations until Pope St. Pius X’s 1911 reform, which made everything uniform for the Roman Rite. Unfortunately, the Little Office was also affected by the 1962 reforms.
At the very least, there is this website, which gives the full prayers for different rubrics, including Divino Afflatu:
We hope that is of some assistance.
Cordially,
TIA correspondence desk

I am not sure who to talk to but I know my Dad had known the editor. His name is Robert Higdon. He passed away two days ago. He loved your website and so do I.
John Higdon
The Editor responds:
Mr. John Higdon,
Receive, please, my sincere condolences for the death of your father.
He collaborated with TIA writing the articles The Providential Three Windows, A Deeper Look at Islam and How Grace Converted a Freemason. We had many points in common, and we were privileged to count on his constant ideological support.
He was a close academic friend of Dr. Marian Horvat.
We pray to Our Lady of Mercy for the eternal rest of his soul.
Cordially,
Atila S. Guimarães, editor
Dr. Horvat responds:
Dear Mr. Higdon,
Ave Maria Purissima!
Thank you for letting me know about your father’s death.
I had a great respect and admiration for him. He was a very dedicated Catholic husband and father. He wrote several articles/commentaries for our site (here, here and here). I was particularly touched by his Freemasonic conversion – a story of courage and grace.
I will have a Mass said for him, as it is the best gift I can give for his long friendship. I had not been in touch with him these last five or more years, and I was glad to know he was with one of his children.
Thank you also for the kind words about our site.
Be sure of my prayers for his soul. May Our Lady bless your family.
In Maria,
Dr. Marian T. Horvat
