The Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Should lay people pray the Roman Breviary? As far as the old-school Roman Breviary as found in the featured image above, I would say no.  Why would I say no?  Because it is 8 "canonical hours" of the Psalms on repeat all day long and most of us pray it in Latin.  It takes 2-3 hours a day and we pray all 150 Psalms a week in Latin.  2-3 hours of Latin prayers is appropriate for a hermit like me, but probably not for a lay person like most of you.  However, if you insist on a couple of the old-school canonical hours, there is a good app that has [...]

Why the Left’s Fake Moral-Panic Is Directly From Hell

By |2021-03-24T17:28:09+00:00March 23rd, 2021|Theology|

Even Washington Post admits that "both Hitler and Stalin were outdone by Mao Zedong. From 1958 to 1962, his Great Leap Forward policy led to the deaths of up to 45 million people – easily making it the biggest episode of mass murder ever recorded." Mao Zedong killed more people than Hitler.  Remember that as you read this blog post. Mao Zedong was a master of turning people-against-people under the pretense of moral purification.  One of these sanctimonious moral issues that meant nothing to Mao (but allowed him to keep killing people while looking holy) was the plight of African-Americans.  He wrote this pamphlet you can still find on Amazon: One [...]

My Great Grand-Uncle: a Monsignor in Rural Illinois

By |2021-03-22T14:20:22+00:00March 20th, 2021|Life|

When my father was only 10 months old, on the 9th of February 1942, my grandfather wrote him a letter that I found and saved to my Evernote.  It begins: Just how to begin this, I do not know, but perhaps if I just write down the thought in my heart you shall see what I have in mind. To begin with, this idea of putting every day events into a sort of letter to you, our children, occured to me long before your Mother and I were married, for I did know that some day with Gods wish we would have you, and I your mother. Therefore I shall [...]

Stockholm Syndrome Part 2

By |2021-06-12T16:56:27+00:00March 18th, 2021|Theology|

We've already covered a kind of Stockholm Syndrome being brought on by the State here. Now we will look at the Church. This week, the Vatican's Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) answered in the negative to the question Does the Church have the power to give the blessing to unions of persons of the same sex? This might seem an orthodox response (and it is) but the CDF ironically quoted Amoris Laetitia (the 2016 document allowing divorced and remarried to receive Holy Communion without confession or annulment) by then saying, “There are absolutely no grounds for considering homosexual unions to be in any way similar or even remotely analogous [...]

Fear of Death Makes You Subject to Lifelong Slavery

By |2021-03-16T21:20:07+00:00March 16th, 2021|Theology|

Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death, He might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, and deliver all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong slavery.—Heb 2:14-15 Wikipedia reports that the Black Death or Bubonic Plague between 1346 to 1353 left 70M-200M dead "and it is estimated to have killed 30% to 60% of Europe's population."  Thus, a real plague is one where one out of every two people you know is dead.  Imagine 50% of your neighbors dead.  Imagine 50% of your family members dead.  Imagine 50% [...]
