Real Union Within the Catholic Church

By |2022-05-11T17:33:45+00:00February 11th, 2021|Theology|

With all these accusations of "schismatic" and "conspiracy theorist" being hurled from normy Catholics to traditional Catholics, let's see what St. Thomas Aquinas has to say: “The sin of unbelief, which fundamentally severs a man from the unity of the Church, simply speaking, makes him to be utterly unfit for receiving this sacrament of the Eucharist because it is the sacrament of the Church's unity.”—St. Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica 3.80.5ad2 This means that sins against the Deposit of the Faith unchanged from Apostolic times is more what separates a Catholic from worthiness to receive the Eucharist than fighting for reform within the hierarchy.  (In fact, fighting for Church reform comes from [...]

Replacement Morality and Risk Aversion

By |2021-02-09T05:53:24+00:00February 9th, 2021|Theology|

One of the effects of Fatima's foreboding "errors of Russia" is women in the workplace, which is tantamount to feminism. Feminism has changed the landscape of Catholic morality not only in specific areas of sterilization, contraception and abortion, but also in general areas of morality. For example, it has flattened any transcendent morality into an imminent morality of paranoid risk aversion. (A woman acting feminine is not the same as acting effeminate, so don't even try to call this a "misogynistic" post.) Last week, I walked out of a semi-enclosed marketplace drinking a cup of coffee. Naturally, the mask was below my chin. As I was about to exit out [...]

Life Update 2021.02.08

By |2021-04-18T04:43:21+00:00February 8th, 2021|Life|

Three things today: 1. My PO Box went down but it is now back in business.   You can find it on my donate page. 2. Two unexpected diversions to my normal life of prayer was when a) a Catholic filmmaker invited several of us priests out for a super-charging retreat to his place in California... Mel Gibson, myself and Fr. Jim Altman spent four days in Southern California at Mel's place with a few other priests in January 2021. ...and b) after a wedding in Dallas I got to spend a morning (and later) an evening with Dr. Taylor Marshall:   3. Please note that even though I'll be [...]

How Good Catholic Teens Are Getting Groomed by Online Predators (It’s Not How You Think.)

By |2021-02-08T15:11:00+00:00February 6th, 2021|Theology|

All parents should watch the below 7-minute video to see not so much how bad girls get trafficked but rather how good girls get trafficked. It is called The Dangers of Social Media (Child Predator Experiment) and it has over 61M views. This channel belongs to Coby Persin who is not a trafficker himself, but is fronting as a trafficker fronting as good teen-boy to meet a good teen girl: https://youtu.be/6jMhMVEjEQg However, unlike the above video, the person on the other end of your kid's FB app is usually not a good-man fronting as a trafficker.  Rather, he is a real trafficker.  It was brought to my attention twice this past week that Catholic families [...]

VLX 52: Prayer Method Review

By |2021-02-05T13:19:15+00:00February 5th, 2021|Podcasts, Sermons, Talks|

Newcomers and old-tymers can review the prayer methods of St. Bruno and St. Teresa of Avila as a mid-point study-session in our mental prayer series on St. Matthew’s Gospel. I discuss also why we rely so heavily upon the Church Fathers via Fr. Lapide SJ in this VLX series. https://youtu.be/7f9Q7tjYpa0

Catholics Living Taqiyah

By |2021-02-04T23:05:31+00:00February 4th, 2021|Theology|

Some Catholics hold their private beliefs as different from their public beliefs. It's starting to resemble the Muslim notion of taqiyah (in Arabic above in the featured image.) I thought for a long time that taqiyah was permission from Mohammed to lie about Islam precisely for the promotion of Islam. But the more I studied it, the more I realized that taqiyah is dialing down your own beliefs so as fit into a different culture (at least, until you constitute the majority of a population.) Taqiyah (Arabic: تقیة‎ ) is defined as "a precautionary dissimulation or denial of religious belief and practice in the face of persecution...dissimulation by silence or [...]
