Back to Basics

By |2025-12-31T02:46:01+00:00December 31st, 2025|Life|

The above is my Paris Metro card from 1997.  It was the subway pass I used to get around the city while I studied at the University of Paris as a 19 year old.  Yes, the above is me as a 19 year old, not a 12 year old.  I weighed about 100 lbs and had to shave maybe once a month.  Walking the lonely streets of Paris, I had almost no friends. I was once mugged at knifepoint by a Muslim while talking to my own mother back in the states in a phone-booth. One day after that, I walked into a Catholic bookstore and I saw the autobiography [...]

Must Catholics Tithe a Full 10%?

By |2025-12-30T14:43:19+00:00December 30th, 2025|Theology|

Must Catholics Tithe 10%? The short answer is: “Yes.” The longer answer is: “Yes, more than that.” We are going to prove this from the Bible, the Church Fathers and recent papal encyclicals. Yes, I can already see the common objections coming from not only mainstream Catholics, but even traditional Catholics. One diocese in New England even has this tired old error on their website about how much we are to give:  "No percentage has been prescribed universally for supporting the work of our New Testament priests in the Catholic Church. But the Old Testament 10-percent precedent is worth considering." Your objections will be tackled fairly—not with straw-men arguments—a little [...]

My Thoughts On Modern Israel.

By |2025-12-22T18:10:49+00:00December 22nd, 2025|Theology|

Ok, I'm finally going to go there.  I might be the last traditional Catholic to weigh-in on the state of Israel and modern Judaism.  But there was a method to my madness in waiting.  I lived in the Old City of Jerusalem this summer, so I have much more than “internet information” enlightening today’s article.  Most pictures in this article come from my phone (except the Vatican ones.) Frequently, other traditional Catholics write me, asking why I don’t write more about the Jews. Today, Section A of my article is going to explain why I personally don’t see them as my enemies. But Section B is going to affirm traditional [...]

This Little Piggy Went to Rome.

By |2025-12-17T22:30:34+00:00December 17th, 2025|Theology|

Above is a still-frame picture from the body-cam footage from my friend in Rome with me back in October 2019 as we enter the Church of St. Mary of Traspontina in construction vests to trash Pachamama idols. You can watch the one minute video here. As I wrote here recently, it was my lame attempt to cleanse that Church just a few hundred meters from the Vatican.  I won't repeat my whole article here.  Simply know that we got caught exiting because the volunteers inside the Amazonian exhibit were on high-alert. This is because Mr. Alexander Tschugguel had successfully removed idols just three hours prior to me, unbeknownst to me, [...]

Your Diocese Is Not Guaranteed a Future.

By |2025-12-15T16:40:15+00:00December 15th, 2025|Theology|

p/c Daniel Ibanez, CNA. Most Catholics today do not know this, but the greatest center of Christianity (second only to Rome) during the first five centuries was Constantinople. This city is sadly now called Istanbul, Turkey. Today, there are only a few Catholic Churches in that city, including St. Anthony of Padua seen above. Notice the streamer on the right column has the Vatican flag. But the streamer running down the left column is the Muslim crescent moon and star. I am sure the modernist Franciscans who run the Church today would say that’s the Turkish flag, not an ode to Mohammed. But let’s be honest: It’s both. That type [...]
