Revelation and Revolution
For this reason I, Paul, a prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles— assuming that you have heard of the stewardship of God's grace that was given to me for you, how the mystery was made known to me by revelation, as I have written briefly. When you read this, you can perceive my insight into the mystery of Christ, which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to His holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit.—Eph 3:1-5. Notice above that the Apostle Paul says that “the mystery” (μυστήριον, mysterion) was made known to him by “revelation” (ἀποκάλυψιν, apocalypsin, unveiling.) What is unveiled? God’s plan for the salvation of mankind is unveiled. St. Paul continues in the same chapter into today's Sacred Heart lesson of the TLM, [...]
A Biblical Look at AB. Viganò with Dr. Taylor Marshall
Dr. Taylor Marshall joins me on today's podcast to discuss Archbishop Viganò who just last week wrote a letter to encourage Trump against the "children of darkness." But two days later, he criticizes the hierarchy following the "revolution" of Vatican II. Why would Viganò first encourage a Protestant President with a speckled past and then discourage pro-life albeit modernist Popes?

What Happens to America’s Poor if the Police Are Defunded?
I've done missionary work in Central America, South America, Africa, Europe and Asia. After so much travel, I can say in very good confidence that we in the USA have the least corrupt police departments of anywhere in the world. Our cops sometimes do horrible things, as the George Floyd video demonstrates. But here's what anyone who has lived outside the United States already knows: In most third-world countries, the only people with physical protection are the rich who can afford private security guards for their families. The police in most third-world countries are so corrupt that they are frequently in cahoots with traffickers. If a woman loses her husband in a third-world country, there is a very good chance that she and her children will be trafficked. In fact, the police will frequently make money from the traffickers. The [...]
Holy Thursday 2020 Sermon
Short sermon from a home Mass just before Easter 2020.
Can Adult Baptisms Be Canonically Suspended during COVID-19?
This was an email I received from out of country. He gave me permission to reproduce it below under condition of anonymity. I changed his name and retracted the country of origin: Dear Father Nix, Here in COUNTRY-X, the government have banned all baptisms, and, by extension, all receptions into the Church. The bishops'conference have followed suit issuing their own edicts to this effect. There is, at the time of writing, no end date in sight for these measures, or even a vague time frame. Two catechumens, one whom was being prepared for unconditional Baptism, and the other who was being prepared to be received (with conditional Baptism), have asked me if there was anything that could be done for them, as their Baptism and Reception have been deferred indefinitely. If a date had been given to review the situation, [...]

Chernobyl and Coronavirus
34 years ago last month, the former states of the USSR remembered the anniversary of the most destructive nuclear meltdown in world history: Chernobyl. Although the HBO series takes Chernobyl takes some historical-fiction liberties with what happened under the Russian government in the 1980s, there's some similarities to what we are currently facing in the USA: Both governments manipulated statistics of a health crisis so as to maintain authoritarian control over their people. The difference is that the Russian government downplayed Chernobyl so as to manipulate the people into submission, where the US government is currently overplaying a real flu so as to manipulate the American people into submission. But both governments played the same thing: Fear and control during a health crisis. The last leader of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev, wrote 20 years after the Chernobyl disaster that [...]
The Nanny-State Wants to Babysit Your Family
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPrbGU0Wyh4 Last week, on 28 April 2020, Tucker Carlson had a 15 minute segment on Fox News (above) called “Big Tech Censors Dissent Over Coronavirus Lockdowns." At minute 5, Tucker talks about how Dr. Erickson MD (the doctor who countered corona-hype with data that was unwelcome) was removed from numerous internet platforms. The CEO of YouTube, Susan Wojcicki, justified such removals on a CNN clip that Fox News borrowed. She said anything “medically unsubstantiated..anything that would go against World Health Organization” would be removed from YouTube. Tucker continues his critique: “Big Technology companies are using this tragedy [of COVID-19] to increase their power over the American population. They’re working in concert with politicians to do it…But suddenly our media are not concerned about freedom of speech. Reporters applaud our overlords as they punish us for disagreeing. You just saw it in [...]
