I don’t know what God has in mind here, but there has been an unnervingly close series of parallels between the popes and the U.S. presidents, at least since World War II. The following eerie coincidences between papal and presidential reigns strikes me as somehow significant. Make of them what you will… [one_half padding=”0px 20px…
I’m starting to think our national religion is Moloch worship. We sacrifice children to a demon, and rather than the blessings we would obtain from worshipping the True God, we have instead called down curses upon us. In a horrifying investigative story that came out today, a hidden-camera investigation exposes the fetal tissue trafficking industry…
Since the beginning of this current pontificate, the cool, considerate men and women of Catholic media have urged many of us not to jump to early conclusions regarding breaking news and alleged troubling quotes from Pope Francis. It is more important to get the story right than it is to be first, my former editors…
“Seek ye therefore first the Kingdom of God and His justice, and all these things shall be added unto you.” (Mt. 6:33) For several centuries now, there has been an intense “cultivation” of the town and an under-cultivation of the country. Industrialism has been the focus of our economy, creating a mass exodus from the country as…
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…
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…
Miserando atque eligendo: these words, chosen by Pope Francis as his motto, seem fitting, as his emphasis on the theme of mercy has been clear since the very beginning. And so, it should come as no surprise that he has announced a Year of Mercy—in fact, a Jubilee Year of Mercy—that will begin on December…
Jeremy David! How are you? You have to congratulate me! David Jeremy, well I’ll be. I haven’t seen you in ages. Congratulations! What am I congratulating you for? Jeremy I got married! David That is worthy of celebration. Fantastic news! Who’s the lucky lady? Jeremy La— No, oh no. Oh, I thought you knew!…
Why does it matter if people convert to Catholicism? Isn’t being Methodist good enough? Is a lapsed Catholic — a part of our religion by baptism — beyond hope? What about a nominal Christian who believes in doing good, even though she rarely darkens the doorstep of a church? And what about all those of other faiths…
Lots of you are discouraged, but you mustn’t lose hope. Today I offer my take on the ever-deepening worries of the faithful, and what we must do. Get the podcast here.
On today’s episode, Steve talks about the rising tide of homosexual perversion, and the failure of most of our shepherds to address it – leaving us to do it for them. [powerpress] Links to items mentioned in this episode: Cardinal Wuerl: Gay “Marriage” the “Law of the Land” Fr. Jonathan Morris: Catholic county clerks should issue…
