St. Joseph Against the Communists

This year the 1 May observance of the 2nd Sunday after Easter gives way in honor of St. Joseph, whom we venerate among his other many roles and titles as a patron of laborers and as the “Worker.” In contrast to what we see now in the Church, to create counterplay against the rise of … Read more

The Communist Bayonet

Mary Against the Marxists, part I This series is about perhaps the most historically consequential Marian apparition that is very little known. It illustrates how the power of faith and prayers of a nation helps to combat Marxism. The following is a description of the event and a comprehensive yet concise overview of its historical … Read more

Coronavirus, Communists, and Our Lady of China

It’s sad to think of Chinese-Americans feeling stigmatized as a result of the coronavirus. One survey shows a majority of Americans have lost respect and trust for China in recent months. Of course Chinese Americans had nothing to do with the virus or its spread, and no one finds fault with individual Chinese people living … Read more

Writer for Jesuit-Run “America” Magazine is Blaspheming Communist

America Magazine has long held a reputation for promoting hard left ideologies. Whether it was Franciscan Friar Daniel Horan’s June 26, 2015 celebration of same-sex “marriage,” or the blasphemous advertisement (image on the right) published in America’s December 2005 issue which depicted a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary enveloped in a condom, this Jesuit-run publication is constantly … Read more

Vatican Finally Capitulates to Beijing, Demands Bishops Step Down for Communist-Appointed Replacements

A new report out of China yesterday indicates that the Vatican has now, for a second time, asked a legitimate bishop to step down and give his episcopal see to a Communist government-appointed bishop who was excommunicated in 2011 after being illicitly consecrated without a papal mandate. Bishop Peter Zhuang Jianjian of Shantou was forced … Read more

Colombia and Venezuela Burning: Is the Vatican Coddling Communists?

Editor’s note: The following comes from Domingo Caro, a contributor well versed in politics and the Church in South America. Colombia has been terrorized and turned into a drug-dealing country by communist subversion for decades. The worst force in this regard has a name: the “Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia” (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia), … Read more

Pope: “It is the Communists Who Think Like Christians”

During this week where Americans have been distracted by the unexpected upset of a presidential election that could very well change the course of our collective future, Pope Francis has been busy making political statements of his own. In yet another interview with Eugenio Scalfari (see our standard rebuttal to “you can’t trust Scalfari!” here), this … Read more

Lay Eucharistic Ministers: A Communist Connection?

On June 29, 1972, on the occasion of the ninth anniversary of his coronation, Pope Paul VI declared to the world, “From some fissure the smoke of Satan entered into the temple of God.” The pope was referencing the diabolical forces that had infiltrated the Church through the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965). Now a key … Read more

Pope Francis on Communist Crucifix: “It Wasn’t An Offense”

Last week, I wrote about the dangerous symbolism of the hammer-and-sickle crucifix (and matching medallion) presented to Pope Francis by Bolivian President Evo Morales. Though many — very many — in the Catholic media jumped quickly to the conclusion that Pope Francis was “not amused” by the gesture and in fact said as much to … Read more

The Communist “Crucifix”: A Golden Opportunity for Pope Francis

As the presidential aids open the large case, Pope Francis stares into it, quizzical, examining the two medals laid therein. An aide of Evo Morales (the Bolivian president and leader of that nation’s Socialist Movement) then turns, draping first one, then the other, around the pontiff’s neck, the latter a four-sided cross inlaid with a hammer and sickle, superimposed … Read more

Vatican Organization Still Involved With Communist Group

You may recall that last October, we ran a report from Michael Hichborn at American Life League (and now, of the Lepanto Institute) about the involvement of Caritas Internationalis, the international organization of Catholic charities run by the Vatican, in a pro-abortion, pro-homosexual, communist organization known as the World Social Forum. If you need a refresher, … Read more
