The Greatest Subjective Threat vs. Objective Threat to the West

By Father David Nix|2022-01-20T18:02:54+00:00January 20th, 2022|Theology|

The greatest subjective threat to America is "White Supremacists." Of course, White Supremacy is objectively a horrible thing. But by my math, probably only about 0.003% of Americans are actually "White Supremacists." So when unelected President Joe Biden says such people are the greatest threat of domestic terrorism to the USA, he's just gaslighting conservatives after the communist coup of 2020 that placed him as a puppet-ruler. This way, anyone who doesn't go along with his stylish tyrannical groupthink can be labeled a "White Supremacist." On the other hand, the greatest objective threat to America (and the entire world) is Marxist Materialism. Unfortunately, Marxist Materialists probably comprise about 50% of [...]

A Challenge to My Protestant Friends

By Father David Nix|2022-01-18T02:33:01+00:00January 18th, 2022|Theology|

p/c Michele Falzone, Colosseum at Sunrise I know that most evangelical "non-dommers" do not like the term "Protestant" anymore, but even National Geographic will place Christians who confess the Trinity into one of three categories: Catholic, Orthodox or Protestant. So, for the sake of brevity (and accuracy) I'm going to conglomerate under the title Protestant all of these: {emergent-Church folks, Mega-Church folks, Baptists, Pentecostals, Lutherans, evangelicals, Methodists, etc., etc.} With more and more Protestants following me on Twitter (especially evangelicals) and more and more Catholics attacking me on Twitter (especially liberal ones) I really don't like to write blog posts against Protestants anymore, considering I now have more in common with [...]

The Penance God Wants

By Father David Nix|2022-01-11T05:54:41+00:00January 13th, 2022|Theology|

Many Apostolic Catholics in the tradosophere are calling for increased prayer and penance in light of all the events of Church and State. I agree we need to increase both. Recently I have been asked: What is the penance we are to do? If we look at the past saints we see fasting, but we also see more intense tools of mortification like the hair-shirt and even the spiked-cilice. Of course, fasting is the most classic and healthiest of all physical mortifications, and we probably all need a lot more fasting in our life. Last summer, on a drive back from Moab to Denver, I was listening to the Our [...]

Satan’s Targets: Man’s Heart and Woman’s Life-Giving Organs

By Father David Nix|2022-01-09T18:00:47+00:00January 9th, 2022|Theology|

I have been listening to podcasts with Dr. Peter McCullough MD and Dr. Robert Malone MD on the topic of the COVID-19 "vaccine." Dr. Peter McCullough MD is one of the most peer-reviewed and published cardiologists in the world out of Texas. Dr. Robert Malone MD is a graduate of Harvard Med and has dedicated a large part of his life to the development of mRNA vaccines. As most of you know, these physicians responded to COVID-19 in 2020 as most physicians did, namely, with medical concern that we were facing a looming enormous pandemic that could wipe out a significant portion of the population. Since then, however, these are [...]

Epiphany 2022

By Father David Nix|2021-12-31T04:32:51+00:00January 6th, 2022|Theology|

Epiphany falls on the 6th of January every year. Epiphany means "manifestation" and the three miracles of Epiphany are found (roughly) in the above three pictures and (exactly) in the three below accounts of Sacred Scripture because they are manifestations of the glory of Jesus Christ: The Magi Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying, “Where is He Who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw His star when it rose and have come to worship Him.” When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all [...]

Lumen Ad Revelationem Gentium

By Father David Nix|2022-01-04T13:15:58+00:00January 4th, 2022|Theology|

[Simeon] took [Jesus] up in his arms and blessed God and said, “Lord, now you are letting your servant depart in peace, according to your word; for my eyes have seen your salvation that you have prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to your people Israel.” And his father and his mother marveled at what was said about him. And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, “Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that is opposed (and a sword will pierce through your own soul [...]

The Illinois State Capitol and “Religious Liberty”

By Father David Nix|2021-12-30T13:45:48+00:00December 30th, 2021|Theology|

Just before Christmas 2021, a baby-Satan was installed next to the Nativity Set in the Illinois State Capitol found in Springfield, IL. Tradition, Family and Property prayed against this event in the Capitol building the very day it happened. Raymond Arroyo on Fox News covered this horrible event with Franklin Graham. What does the Catholic Church think about this? At the gut-level, everyone is disgusted. But let's consider this at a doctrinal level. The "pastoral" (non-dogmatic) Second Vatican Council had a "Declaration on Religious Freedom" called Dignitatis Humanæ. In this document, we read that "the right to religious freedom has its foundation not in the subjective disposition of the person, [...]

Why Did God Become Man? A Simple Explanation

By Father David Nix|2021-12-25T15:48:50+00:00December 26th, 2021|Theology|

Would the Eternal Word have become incarnate if Adam had never sinned? Some religious in the Middle-Ages answered in the negative to this. However, the Franciscans answered in the positive. The latter view would become known as the Absolute Primacy of Christ. I hold to this view, namely, that the Second Person of the Trinity would have indeed become Jesus Christ even if Adam and Eve had never sinned. However, even for those who hold to the Absolute Primacy of Christ (like the Franciscans and me) we clearly assert that the propitiation for our sins was a major reason for the Incarnation. Of course, the Incarnation is when God the [...]

The Incarnation

By Father David Nix|2021-12-25T04:18:40+00:00December 25th, 2021|Theology|

“One will be sent in the flesh,” thundered the most beautiful Trinity to the angels and all the courts of heaven eons ago. In perfect harmony they rejoiced. But later they wondered if anyone but a lowly archangel like Raphael (still more glorious than a burning star) could dare condescend again to take flesh as Raphael did for Tobit. Their best guess for the new assignment was Gabriel. God said “Gabriel will go…but in spirit as preparation. One much higher than he will become flesh.” “But how?” the angels wondered, “A cherubim's eyes would melt the trees and mountains. No human warrior's body could even instantaneously hold the power of [...]

Ancient Pagan Prophesies Describing the Savior of the World

By Father David Nix|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 [...]
