A Pilgrimage of Men, Not Angels

While some people are struggling with temptations to change their gender, I often wish I had been created an angel.  It's not because I have lived an angelic life in my past or because I have an angelic intellect.  It's rather because we humans face millions of tests to get to heaven, where angels only had one major test of their obedience and sacrifice of their wills in order to be saved.  I suppose it's my laziness that makes me wish I could have just been saved by simply one decision (like the angels) instead of many, as we humans on earth have to do every week. Last year, I [...]

The above is a picture I snapped at Ave Maria University while traveling to a funeral in Florida. Normally these updates go in my Life-Update section, but I wanted to express my deep and heartfelt thanks to those who sacrifice for me, either by finances or by time in prayer. Here's some points on where your money is going: I pray or read several hours a day.  This usually includes Mass, mental prayer, Rosary and the old Divine Office. I still receive health insurance from my Archdiocese.  However, all my income still comes from you who read my site and listen to my pods.  This is because I am not [...]

p/c Caminante Wanderer. The three munera, or duties, of the priest are to teach, sanctify and govern. Since the 1990s, the "teach" aspect of the priesthood has been relegated to the laity. The "sanctify" aspect of the sacraments remains somehow with the priest, but is treated as shallow magic-tricks at most Nordo parishes. Finally, the "govern" aspect of the priesthood is relegated entirely to the bishop as an unchecked juggernaut CEO of positivistic-obedience in areas he is taken seriously. In places the bishop is not taken seriously, he's seen as just a cover for child-abuse and Democratic funding. I want to write about the most under-rated munera of the priesthood, [...]

-Donate: https://www.padreperegrino.org/donate/ -Telegram: https://t.me/padreperegrino Gospel: Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” that is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” And some of the bystanders, hearing it, said, “This man is calling Elijah.” And one of them at once ran and took a sponge, filled it with sour wine, and put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink. But the others said, “Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to save him.” And Jesus cried out [...]
