Resisting the Spiritual Arm of the New World Order
In a recent letter found on Marco Tosatti 's blog, Archbishop Viganò writes: "In recent days it has been reported in the news that the Jesuits in America have received grants of nearly two million dollars (over four years) from George Soros, and it seems that the same agreement between the Holy See and the Chinese Communist regime has been financed by large annual donations from Beijing to the Vatican coffers that are in a disastrous state. The fact that the Church fell prostrate before the lockdown, suspending liturgical celebrations and closing churches all over the world, has led to considerable collateral economic damage, for which Chinese donations and the [...]

Bell-Curve Catholicism
So-called "Middle-of-the-Road" Catholics are becoming increasingly distressed at their own defectors to the camp of the “far left” of Fr. James Martin SJ and the camp of the “far right” of Dr. Taylor Marshall. These Middle-of-the-Road Catholics are concerned at how many “pro-life Catholics” will still vote for Biden, especially as a new group of “defectors to the left" listens to the likes of Fr. James Martin. Such clergy of the far-left discount the notion of being a “one-issue voter” on abortion as we approach the election. For this reason, liberal "pro-life Catholics" may have no problem voting for Biden because of other issues they dislike about Trump. But the [...]

Life Update 4: California Missions
Mission One The last time I was in California was last year, but several trips are worth recounting here that shaped my ten years of priesthood. First, during the summer of 2012 (when I had been a priest for only two years) I led a group of university (and barely post-university) students on a trip called Bike for the Unborn (BFU) where we rode our bikes up the missions of Southern and Central California to raise money for the unborn and their plight in this country. By "missions," I mean we visited the ancient Churches founded by Bl. Junipero Serra, the great Spaniard Franciscan known as the "founder of California." That [...]

Part 4 of My Commentary on Archbishop Viganò’s September 2020 Letter
This is the fourth and final part of the analysis I wrote on a recent letter from Archbishop Viganò to a layman. Archbishop Viganò’s words are in italics below. My words are in orange bold font. Dear Mr. Kokx, 1 Sept 2020 ...continued from part 3... But in order to deserve the immortal glory of Heaven we are called to rediscover – in an emasculated age devoid of values such as honor, faithfulness to one’s word, and heroism – a fundamental aspect of the faith of every baptized person: the Christian life is a militia, and with the Sacrament of Confirmation [...]
