Discernment Rules on Secular Decisions
Last year I wrote an article titled, Why Do Rad-Trads Keep “Guessing” Everything Right? In it, I explained it was not a coincidence that traditional Catholics were accurate on everything from resisting "the covid vaccine" to seeing the current Church crisis accurately. Why is this? It wasn't because my Google-button worked better than the priests that were ordained before me. It wasn't because I wanted to save lives by avoiding an mRNA gene therapy injection while other more lukewarm Catholics wanted their loved-ones to die. The reason was not physical. Rather, it was spiritual. We all might have good-wills, but we were informed by different beings. If Rad-Trads Guessing was a "told-ya-so" article, this article is written so as to give insight on Discernment Rules influencing Secular Decisions going forward. As Michael Knowles repeatedly says (quoting Cardinal Manning, I believe) [...]
Should Those Who Commit Abortion Be Punished?
In the more righteous days of Christendom, Catholic countries did indeed reserve the death penalty for men or women who had killed children. This is seen in the fact that in both the Old Testament and the New Testament, the Church Fathers and the Popes held that the death penalty was not only for safety for society, but it was a just punishment upon the guilty. This was especially true when the guilty killed even one innocent person (like an unborn baby.) In case you think the Catholic Church has changed her teaching on the death penalty, just realize that such a notion is impossible. The dogma of the Catholic Church cannot change. The Roman Catechism of Trent is the only infallible Catechism of the Church. Unfortunately, it is rejected by modernist heretics who wrote Dignitas Infinita, as I explained [...]
VLX 150: Mt 26:26-29. “My Blood of the New Covenant.”
GOSPEL: Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.” And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. I tell you I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.” *** -My site: https://www.padreperegrino.org -Donate: https://www.padreperegrino.org/donate/ -Telegram: https://t.me/padreperegrino

Hope For America in the Heartland
Riding my bike around Denver as a 12 year old boy, I got good at maps. These were obviously the days before cell-phones and GPS, so I studied my maps as a hobby. I studied city maps of Denver and Chicago, state maps of Colorado and the Eisenhower Interstate System. I would look at globes for hours, memorizing countries all over the world. For me, my map study was always about both location and meaning. The current return to tradition that Catholics are making across the globe is strong, especially places like France and the United States. As I mentioned above, for people obsessed with geography like me, I often find meaning in location. What is the meaning behind France having such a high percentage of her still-practicing Catholics attending the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM)? I do not know, [...]
When the Priest Decided Which Parishioners Could Receive the Eucharist
Last week in Florida, a woman demanded Holy Communion from a 66 year old priest named Fr. Rodriguez. When he quietly informed her in that Communion line that she had to be a practicing Catholic, she grabbed numerous hosts (the body of Jesus Christ) in his ciborium. As she crushed them in her hand, he had no arms to push her away, so he lunged at her and bit her forearm to defend the Holy Eucharist. I do not believe he broke the skin, but it appears he was still charged by police. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llVcGN2gJqw The question of a priest physically repelling a lay-assailant upon a ciborium or chalice is essentially a debate on last-line defense against Eucharistic sacrilege. Shortly after that event in Florida, I made the above video in my truck explaining we as the Catholic Church in [...]

Did Christ’s Nature Change at His Baptism?
One of the more common heresies over the last 50 years goes something like, "Jesus discovered His vocation at His baptism." Of course, that denies the Divinity of Christ. But a reader recently told me about the opposite heresy she came across. She saw that I recently said on social media that I do not read Private Messages (PM) or Direct Messages (DM.) So, she saw my email is on my Donate page. She wrote: Hello Father Nix. I enjoy your posts and podcasts I just saw your recent Facebook post regarding social media messages. I had sent you the following message on April 26. I’d like your input because a friend said something that has me puzzled. I tried to respond but she was insistent that she was correct. Thank you for your witness and vocation. This is what [...]
