I got an email over the weekend I wanted to share with you: Dear Steve, You may have already seen this circulating among some traditional circles, but I was wondering if you might be interested in sharing my brother’s wife’s story with your readers. If you already posted this appeal, thank you. Sometimes things get…
You may recall hearing about a Satanic “Black Mass” in Oklahoma City last year. We wrote about it here, here, and here. A reader in Oklahoma City writes to inform us that the same people who organized that event are now planning another Satanic event in Oklahoma City on Christmas Eve – and what Catholics there…
We stay well clear of politics here, but Donald Trump’s suggestion that there be a moratorium on Islamic immigration has raised a lot of hackles. Despite the outrage, the American people are much more on board with this idea than one might expect. Check out this screenshot of an MSNBC poll on the topic grabbed…
I am unable to bring myself to comment much on this, since I’m alternating between nausea and the desire to take a sledgehammer to something. Let me just say that this OBVIATES THE INCARNATION AND IS AN OUTRAGE TO CHRIST: Catholics should not try to convert Jews and should work with them to fight antisemitism,…
A woman posting under the name “Farrah Prudence” says she grew up Muslim in the Middle East, and she’s tired of the true nature of Islam being misrepresented. This is worth 8 minutes of your time: If you’d like to read the texts she recommends, we’ve already linked to them in our post, Islam 101:…
A reader in New York City kindly alerted me to a video he discovered on the website of one of the better known Episcopal Churches in Manhattan, Trinity Wall Street. In it, we see the December 6, 2015 appearance of Franciscan priest of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe (and noted writer and speaker) Fr. Richard…
Well, hello there, 1P5ers! Nice to see you again. Seems as though we had a little Internet adventure today. Last week, I made some changes with one of our web hosts, where the various domains we own are parked. It was a change in the hosting plan, since we were paying for more than we used, and I didn’t…
I got an email from a reader (hi Aaron!) recently in which I was informed that a lot of people — especially younger people — are beginning to listen to audio-only podcasts on YouTube. Aaron then graciously offered to convert all of our podcasts to video and upload them to our mostly-unused YouTube channel. And so he did.…
A reader sent me this information and I managed to let it get buried in my inbox not once, but twice. I’m feel horrible – so please, get the word out to those in the area that this is happening: Press Release: Thomas International Center is proud to announce the visit of His Eminence Raymond Leo…
It’s typically bad form to say “I told you so.” (But if you’re going to gloat, do it like Hilary. Then it’s hilarious.) Still, when you are perpetually maligned and attacked for your concerns and predictions, it’s sometimes appropriate to document the events as they unfolded to show that you really were on the scent. (Sorry #Bishopsgotthis…
In my podcast earlier today, I said I hadn’t read anything from the pope’s Africa visit. That didn’t last long. Tonight, after helping my lovely wife get the kids in bed, I came down to ye olde computer to get back to work and there, plastered on the screen, was a link to the Zenit…
