Warning on Bad Prelates.

Lay Catholics are currently desperate for leadership in the hierarchical Church. Not finding any, they prop up fake-leaders. Why? There have been numerous psychological studies that show (in both secular and religious culture) men are more desirous of security than truth. Thus, Catholics today are following the normal patterns of humanity in this crisis. However, it’s more dangerous for Catholics because modernists (and apparently even trads) are now projecting true Catholicism on a non-Catholic leader (who has the whole world deceived as to leadership and devotion.) This is going to have dire eternal consequences upon countless souls. At this point, many Catholics think I am taking the dangerous road of [...]

I'm sorry about the ridiculous Muslim prayer-droning from the nearby minaret, as I'm in a Middle-Eastern country preaching this (in a Catholic Church, of course.)

In Christ's Passion, we see what we ought to suffer for the truth, and in His resurrection, what we ought to hope for in eternity.—St. Thomas Aquinas At Golgotha in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, one can go to the exact site where Jesus Christ was crucified. Under a Greek altar, one can put one's fist into a hole going to the rocks split asunder and also where tradition tells us the Cross was placed during the crucifixion of the Son of God. Of all the icons that could have been used directly above the hole into the ground of Calvary's cross, they chose "Christ the Bridegroom." [...]

This month of July 2025, Miss Diane Montagna, an American journalist based in Rome, released an article here titled "Official Vatican Report Exposes Major Cracks in Foundation of Traditiones Custodes (TC.)" She writes: "The previously undisclosed text, which forms a crucial part of the official report by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith on its 2020 consultation of bishops concerning Summorum Pontificum, reveals that 'the majority of bishops who responded to the questionnaire stated that making legislative changes to Summorum Pontificum would cause more harm than good.'" But only 30% of the bishops had even responded in that 2020 questionnaire. Miss Montagna asserts that a new report states [...]

The Greatest Grace of My Life

Resurrection Grace In 2008, a year before my diaconate ordination, I went with a seminary professor and about 50 others (non-seminarians) to the Holy Land. As a seminarian, a priest friend paid my way (Thanks Fr. Michael B!) not the seminary. My seminary professor wanted nothing to do with me (yes, even back then!) so I ended up wandering the streets of Jerusalem one evening. (Earlier that week, I had hoped for really cool graces at the Golgotha location where Jesus was crucified, but felt little consolation.) However, that evening of wandering old Jerususalem, I came into the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and inside that Church is both the [...]

St. Thomas Aquinas writes in the Summa I-II Q 2: Consequently man's happiness cannot consist in fame or glory. On the other hand, man's good depends on God's knowledge as its cause. And therefore man's beatitude depends, as on its cause, on the glory which man has with God; according to Ps. 90: "I will deliver him, and I will glorify him; I will fill him with length of days, and I will show him my salvation..." Fr. David: On social-media, I frequently see Catholics post pictures of saints while misrepresenting Church history or true theology. Such a post of a saint with bad theology may have thousands of likes [...]

US Bishops and Their Moneymaking Borders.

p/c PBS The USCCB continues to issue statements against Trump as they clamor for the billions back once received for illegal activity under the Biden Administration in facilitating open-borders in the United States. However, the Department for Homeland Security also takes the offensive. Homeland issued the following statement to Catholic Charities and the USCCB, among other NGOs: “The chairmen are examining whether these NGOs used taxpayer dollars to facilitate illegal activity, as the previous administration incentivized millions of inadmissible aliens to cross our borders—many of whom were subsequently aided by NGOs after being released at the border under the Biden-Harris administration’s mass catch-and-release policies.” Over the last 14 years, leftist [...]
