A Conversation with Fr. Hesse #3 (Audio + Video Footage)

This video is the third of three videos of conversations with Fr. Hesse where a wide variety of topics are discussed, including the Third Secret of Fatima.

Notable parts and quotes of Fr. Hesse in this talk:

Fr. Hesse talks about how the Vatican cover-up and lies about the Third Secret of Fatima is an indication that the Church crisis is worsening. Fr. Hesse talks about how the consecration of Russia has not been properly done.

Fr. Hesse answers the question whether he thinks it is suspicious that the Vatican didn’t release the (incomplete) publication of the Third Secret until Fr. Malachi Martin died.

Fr. Hesse talks about what he thinks the Third Secret of Fatima could have been. “It has to be one thing: […]” “[…] And [Our Lady] knew NOTHING about Vatican II? Who’s going to believe that? She knew about those 55 or 60 million people that died in World War II and she knew NOTHING about ONE BILLION Catholics being deprived of the truth by what is going on since Vatican II? She didn’t know about that? That is impossible. It’s not improbable: it’s impossible.”

“The Third Secret of Fatima must – it’s bound – to contain the crisis of the Faith since Vatican II. Therefore, it must in some way mention Vatican II. There is no way around that.”

Pope John XXIII’s deal with Moscow about which he lied in public.

Fr. Hesse discusses why Quo Primum was an infallible, irreformable decree and he refutes a counter-argument which tries to claim otherwise.

Devil's advocate question posed to Fr. Hesse: Why is not the Society of St. Pius X not the same as Martin Luther?

Devil's advocate question posed to Fr Hesse: What gives the SSPX the right to say they will not listen to the pope and to ordain priests?

How if someone accepts a certain statement in the Vatican II document Gaudiem et Spes, they cease to be a Catholic (objectively speaking).

“The present Pope’s statements – I’ll give you one – are at least blasphemous, if not heretical.”

“The present Pope also merits to enter the Guinness Book of World Records because he managed to pronounce three heresies in one paragraph.”

“So here we have a Pope who mentions three heresies. I don’t know if he wanted to be a [material] heretic – we’re not interested in that – but in one sentence he says three wrong things. In another sentence he blasphemes. In his first encyclical, Redemptor Hominis, he does not ONCE mention the word Roman Catholic or Catholic Church. He talks about the Church of the Council, he talks about ‘the conscience of the Church’ – six times in one page – and he talks about ‘the Church of the New Advent’ – whatever that may be: it is not the Church that I belong to and that I was baptized into and that I work for and that I’m ready to die for. I’m not ready to die or work for ‘the Church of the New Advent.’”

“Who’s the Catholic here?”

On baptism of desire and the possibility of salvation of those who are not Catholic.

“I have complete and total trust in God’s Justice. He’s not going to send anybody to hell who DEFINITELY doesn’t want to go there. There’s two [types of] people who go to hell: the ones who want to go there like Martin Luther and the ones who don’t CARE if they go there or don’t try hard to avoid it. God is not going to send to hell anyone who most definitely tried his best not to go there. My faith in God’s Justice is INIFNITELY higher than my faith in my fellow human beings.”

Fr. Hesse addresses an objection of a sedevacantist.

“[…] So why wouldn’t it be logical – now the Vatican is full of schismatics – that they would be the first ones to call the last Catholics […] Why wouldn’t automatically – think strategically of course, which I know you do, but – for the sake of argument: Isn’t it obvious that the greatest schismatics of our day – which are the ones that try to tell me that I should really say the New Mass – would call those who don’t schismatics. Obviously. I mean most of time it’s the greatest idiot who calls everyone else an idiot.”

“I happen to be the one person who has recorded on tape all of Archbishop Lefebvre’s sermons and speeches in the German language on cassette tape. And I was asked to do so by the former Superior General of the Society of St. Pius X, Fr. Franz Schmidberger.”

“There is not a single human soul in Heaven without sanctifying grace. Without sanctifying grace, the fire of God would burn 10,000 times hotter than hell. Hell is an act of mercy. God gave hell to those who hate Him out of mercy. Their pain would be ten billion, ten to the 99th potency higher if they had to face Him without wanting Him, so He shut the door.”

Fr. Hesse on patriotism.

Fr. Gregory Hesse, S.T.D., J.C.D., S.T.L., J.C.L., Canon Lawyer, Doctor of Thomistic Theology, lifelong friend and personal secretary of Cardinal Stickler at the Vatican from 1986-1988 has provided us with many talks and conferences where he gives a no-nonsense, intelligent, learned, and witty exposition and explanation of relevant topics facing contemporary faithful Catholics. Fr. Hesse got to know approximately 45 cardinals while studying and working in Rome for 15 years and he has an uncanny and substantial knowledge of many things. You would be hard-pressed to find another theologian quite like him.

Canon Hesse was related to the Hapsburg royal bloodline. He was born in Vienna in 1952, ordained by Cardinal Marella in St. Peter's Basilica on November 21, 1981, and earned doctorates in Canon Law and Theology from the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas (Angelicum) in Rome. He worked as a personal secretary of Cardinal Stickler at the Vatican from 1986 to 1988. He passed away on January 25, 2006. You would be hard-pressed to find another theologian quite like him. A breath of fresh air in today’s widespread climate of many weak, ignorant, and naive clerics and theologians, he was affectionately called by several of his friends during his life “the bull in the china shop.” His example, testimony, and insights no doubt played and will play an important role in Catholic thought and development. Listen to find out why.

This video and all the remastered audio files at the above link have been professionally touched up to remove as much background noise, pops, crackles, and other audio imperfections as possible. Because the original recordings were done on cassette tapes with less-than-ideal audio equipment, there are a certain amount of audio artifacts and tape hiss that were not possible to entirely remove. However, the remastered audio files are significantly better than the originals.
