Ancient Pagan Prophesies Describing the Savior of the World

By |2021-12-22T15:48:45+00:00December 22nd, 2021|Theology|

Not only did the Hebrew Scriptures describe that the Messiah would come from Bethlehem, but so did pagan oracles.  Ven. Archbishop Fulton Sheen describes some of them: History is full of men who have claimed that they came from God, or that they were gods, or that they bore messages from God – Buddha, Mohammed, Confucius, Christ, Lao-tze, and thousands of others, right down to the person who founded a new religion this very day. Each of them has a right to be heard and considered. But as a yardstick external to and outside of whatever is to be measured is needed, so there must be some permanent tests available [...]

If 6M Muslims a year convert to [mostly] non-Catholic Christianity, who is behind this?  God or the devil? Listen to this "Theology and Current Events" (TCE) to get my best-guess. Yes, best-guess only here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HicsTNZ5pYc&t=1s

The Darkness Fears the Light

By |2021-12-25T15:52:07+00:00December 20th, 2021|Theology|

In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. This was the first registration when Quirinius was governor of Syria.—Lk 2:1-2 Notice that Joseph and Mary had to go through a census or registration (ἀπογραφὴ or apographé in Greek in Lk 2:2 above) as Jews living under the foreign occupation of the Roman Empire. Herod, a half-Jew who was in cahoots with the Roman government that had invaded, presumably used this registration to track Jesus in his attempts to kill Him: Then Herod, when he saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, became furious, and he sent and killed all [...]

Mental Prayer vs. Centering Prayer

By |2021-12-16T02:37:34+00:00December 18th, 2021|Theology|

A good friend recently asked me to explain the difference between traditional Catholic mental prayer (meditation on the life of Jesus that the Spanish mystics called oración mental) and New Age centering prayer (amorphous meditation promoted by pseudo-Eastern groups.)  My online series on mental prayer called Video Lectio Divina tries to teach the former, but I have never tackled the difference in definitions. So what is the difference between mental prayer and centering prayer?  A decent answer would be that that mental prayer looks outwards to God and centering prayer looks inward to self.  This would be a decent answer.  However, it's not a perfect answer because great mystics like [...]

Planned Mass Psychosis

By |2021-12-17T15:52:14+00:00December 16th, 2021|Theology|

Here's two excellent resources I would like to share to prove that the totalitarian overreach (using the pretext of COVID-19) is actually a planned mass-psychosis.  The first is surprisingly a podcast with Joe Rogan and Dr. Peter McCullough MD.  The second is a list of medical and sociological facts compiled by Kit Knightly. 1. Joe Rogan and Dr. Peter McCullough MD, MPH (See above picture) were in a three hour podcast here on Spotify.  This is so incredibly important that someone as mainstream as Joe Rogan (admittedly less and less mainstream every day) has given a forum to one of the strongest medical voices on the truth of COVID-19.  Rogan [...]

Exceptions to Being Pro-Life?

By |2021-12-12T15:54:09+00:00December 12th, 2021|Theology|

Even in high school, long before my conversion to traditional Catholicism, I was pro-life.  I remember one guy from my high-school with whom I would work in the soup-kitchen in downtown Denver.  He was part of the young Republican club and he told me that he was "pro-life except in cases of rape and incest."  Even back then, before I had studied the defense of the pro-life position, I knew that a child should not have to pay for her life for the crime of her father.  I knew he was wrong.  If the unborn baby were human, then murder could never be justified based on any crime that led [...]
