The True Faith in Latin America.

By |2026-02-03T10:52:50+00:00February 3rd, 2026|Theology|

The modernist ape-of-the-church continues to decline in Latin America.  OSV had a headline that read Catholicism down in Latin America, but belief in God remains high.  Chris Jackson stated that this headline reads as an "obituary." Why an obituary?  Because, as Jackson stated, "this is the true fruit of the post Vatican II missionary strategy. A region formed by Catholic identity is being de Catholicized. The 'nones' rise. Protestantism holds steady or grows modestly in places. Belief in God persists. So the hunger remains, the institutional Church shrinks, and the spiritual vacuum gets filled by whatever is loudest and simplest." In other words, even if satan can't convince Latinos to [...]

Why Men Must Lead Their Families.

By |2026-01-26T23:34:06+00:00January 27th, 2026|Theology|

This is an inspiring true story of an early Christian family, found in the Victories of the Martyrs, compiled by St. Alphonsus Liguori. Upon the death of the Emperor Diocletian, his successors Galerius and Maximilian continued the persecution against the Christians, and our saints were of the number of those who then obtained the crown of martyrdom. Timothy was a native of the town of Perapus in Thebais, and was so exemplary a Christian that his bishop ordained him lector. He was married to a Christian lady named Maura, only seventeen years of age; and the marriage had been solemnized but three weeks, when Arianus, the governor of the province, [...]

Hermitage: Base of Operations.

By |2026-01-24T06:41:31+00:00January 24th, 2026|Updates|

As you know, one of the most common complaints against my life is that "hermits shouldn't travel."  Besides the fact that my rule of life has 20 days contemplative and 10 days active life approved every month by my superiors, it's important to look at Catholic Church history on the life of contemplatives to see if there's any precedent to my way of life.  We're going to go look way back to the First Millennium of Catholicism to the country whence my ancestors come:  Ireland. Raymond O'Flynn in Frank Sheed's book The Saints Are Not Sad wrote about an army of Irish and Scottish monks that left their monasteries and [...]

Fatima, Darwin and Liturgy

By |2026-01-20T18:22:20+00:00January 22nd, 2026|Theology|

In my last article, Fatima, Darwin and Dogma, we looked at how Darwinian evolution erroneously led most Catholics of the 20th century to believe dogma could evolve like a species.  We saw how this was no small part of Mary's dreaded "errors of Russia."  So also, if dogma can change overnight, then the liturgy can morph overnight, too.  (Of course, we know that the Bible and the Magisterium make it clear that neither a species nor Divine Revelation can evolve.  But one false premise, namely, Darwinian Evolution, can strangely affect even the Holy Mass.) Let's ask an important question:  Is tradition a living thing?  This is a tricky question.  If [...]

Fatima, Darwin and Dogma

By |2026-01-18T00:03:44+00:00January 20th, 2026|Theology|

The above prelate is Bishop Cuthbert O'Gara, a Canadian-born priest who was a heroic missionary to the Far East in the first half of the 20th century.  In 1947, Cuthbert was named bishop of Yuanling in 1947.  But in 1951, the holy bishop was arrested by Chinese Communists and imprisoned until his expulsion from the country in 1953.  Then, he returned to North America to warn Westerners of the evils of Communism. I only recently learned about him by watching Hugh Owen's Foundations Restored, a Catholic production unveiling the lies of Darwinian Evolution in favor of Biblical creation. Bishop Cuthbert insisted that the teaching of Darwin's evolution was absolutely central [...]

Oath Against Modernism

By |2026-01-11T22:36:08+00:00January 15th, 2026|Theology|

As many priests are being told they must take oaths in favor of ecumenism, I hereby take the oath against modernism that Pope St. Pius X asked all priests to take: I, Fr. David Nix (above) firmly embrace and accept each and every definition that has been set forth and declared by the unerring teaching authority of the Church, especially those principal truths which are directly opposed to the errors of this day. And first of all, I profess that God, the origin and end of all things, can be known with certainty by the natural light of reason from the created world (see Rom. 1:19), that is, from the [...]

On American Canceled Priests.

By |2026-01-13T15:11:21+00:00January 13th, 2026|Theology|

What is a canceled priest? A canceled priest is defined as one canceled for an unjust reason. Thus, the rest of this article does not refer, for example, to priests in prison for harming children.  Rather, it applies to solid priests canceled by their bishops for being too conservative… nay, too Catholic. A man named Paul in New England recently wrote me: Could you do a Substack article on how priestly employment works? Can't the canceled priest be hired by a willing dioceses? Or are they black balled?  Can a priest transfer to a different dioceses? Can a group of Catholics hire a priest to live in their area? There [...]
