In this first of three podcasts on the October Amazon Synod in Rome, we discuss the definition of a synod, the new-age roots of an "integral ecology" and the Eastern-religion influences on the 20th and 21st century Catholic Church hierarchy. We also discuss how all this was prophesied by Our Lady of Good Success in the 16th century and how a diabolical disorientation will be solved by an angelic orientation.
In tonight's podcast, we discuss the manliness of St. Francis of Assisi as the antithesis to the Jewish transvestite temple priests as recounted by the 1st century historian, Flavius Josephus. We also discuss Antifa and finally the words of St. Francis of Assisi where he prophesies a specific time in the future of the Catholic Church where "those who persevere in their fervor and adhere to virtue with love and zeal for the truth, will suffer injuries and persecutions as rebels and schismatics."
Monday's podcasted sermon is about what St. John the Baptist might say to the Catholic faithful in 2019 who are looking for answers (or excuses) from the hierarchy.
How do Catholics navigate conscience and public courage in a time of doctrinal confusion? In today's RomeCast, we look at some high profile Catholics like Jim Gaffigan, Joseph Sciambra and Justice Thomas, as well as a pro-life priest in Colorado. We also recall the price of telling the truth, as seen in the recently deceased Natacha Jaitt.
On today's podcast, Oz and I discuss peaceful vigilance in lay people approaching both catechesis and priests, and how we want to avoid the two extremes of both negligence and panic.
In today's podcast, we discuss a NYT article on Venezuela, Marxism in general and secondly the question that many traditional Catholics get on obedience and authority.
In today's podcast, we recap the 2018 Church Militant stories of James Grein and the late Fr. Moreno of the diocese of Buffalo, NY.
I attempted to prove in World Religions part I and part II that Catholicism is the only world religion that even claims to deliver lasting fulfillment to modern man. In this blog post, I will attempt to show that an "updated" Catholicism can never do this. Only real Catholicism can serve as "an antidote to chaos" to borrow a term from the best-selling book by Jordan Peterson. Yesterday, I drove from Denver to Chicagoland to be with my grandma for what may be her last month on earth. I am vigiling by her bed with both an iPad to get some work done and the old Collectio Rituum to begin [...]
In today's podcast, we hear the conversion of Michael Voris, founder of Church Militant.
Between my initial conversion as a teenager (1997) and about halfway through my nine-years of priesthood (2014) I would probably have been described as a small-fish but bold-agent in the "New Evangelization" of Pope John Paul II. I don't regret those days. I came to know salvation-history through great lay leaders. I saw real miracles in the charismatic movement (as well as some evil things.) As a layman, I had many sins forgiven by priests who did not speak a word of Latin (and some invalid confessions via priests changing the words of absolution.) As much as this blog post might sound primed for a line like "But now I [...]
