9 minutes on contraception vs. abortion as well as how to get involved in the pro-life movement after the Supreme Court handed the decision on abortion "laws" to the individual states. https://rumble.com/embed/v18361v/?pub=e5jg1
Yesterday, we released the very last CPX video, found on this YouTube playlist. CPX stands for Catechism of Pius X. It is my doctrinal and catechetical series of 15 minute videos numbered from 1 to 113. Each video contains about five minutes of my reading an old-school catechism and then about ten minutes of my commentary on it. Of course, my commentary is not as important as the words of a canonized Pope from 100 years ago. However, my application to a post-modern man who is battling the heresy of modernism is something the holy Pope never expected to be in the battle-array of a priest in the not-too-distant [...]

Even the Wikipedia page for Jim Pouillon reads that "the murder of Jim Pouillon occurred on September 11, 2009... Pouillon was killed while protesting against abortion in front of Owosso High School in Owosso, Michigan." The man who killed Pouillon is named Harlan James Drake. That same day, he shot a businessman named Michael Fuoss at a different location. Fuoss was also killed. May God rest his soul. Because the two events were unrelated, and because the second shooting had nothing to do with the abortion debate, one might argue that Pouillon just happened to be at "the wrong place at the wrong time," namely, in front of an abortion center. Furthermore, I [...]

Here's four ways abortion is possibly worse than the murder of an adult: 1. The level of innocence. I am not saying any babies are conceived without original sin. I'm simply saying they have no actual sin on their hands at the moment of their slaughter, unlike adult victims of homicide. 2. Abortion is a bloody sacrifice to demons as a mockery of the Mass. The Mass is an unbloody sacrifice to God. 3. Every abortion drags a dozen people to hell, regardless of where that baby goes (heaven, or much more likely—limbo.) 4. By the sheer number of these murders, chaos is introduced into a society and demons' power [...]
A friend who I went to seminary with over a decade ago left before ordination and got married. He's been living outside Colorado with his wife. She got pregnant and in the ultrasound for their first baby, they found the baby had Dextro-Transposition of the Great Arteries. This is where a baby needs an arterial switch surgery after birth to change the way the arteries connect to the heart. The two places offered to them for this invasive surgery was San Francisco or Denver. They chose to come to Denver, the same town my buddy attended seminary (even though he was studying for a different diocese over 10 years ago, [...]
One of the things I find fascinating about Special Forces guys in the US Military is that they are usually soft-spoken. One of the things I find fascinating about fully-certifiable narcissists is that they are always the opposite: Whereas narcissists frequently speak about themselves in a self-centered manner, they secretly have extremely low self-confidence. So, what is the relationship between self-confidence and humility? The pious answer goes like this: "One should have confidence in God, not oneself." While this is true, it does not take into consideration the difficult balance that St. Thomas Aquinas makes between magnanimity and humility. In the Second Part of the Second Part of his Summa Theologiae, St. [...]
