On this episode, Steve talks to Stream.org Senior Editor John Zmirak about the significance of the upcoming election not just for America, but the world; the opinions of certain high Catholic prelates on the same; and the importance now more than ever of securing natural rights — like self defense — from those who increasingly…
Fr. Leonard Feeney, M.I.C.M. used to say that it is good to view as scandalous the trafficking in indulgences that took place during the middle ages, but he would continue, “what should concern us even more is that, due to the present almost universal lack of the fear of God, an unscrupulous cleric could not…
The following chapter talk was written by the same religious superior who wrote “The Symbolism of Religious Clothing: Why Nuns Wear What They Do.” Here she shows her keen understanding of philosophy, theology, and Catholic tradition, which come together to yield something unsurpassably beautiful. The text has been edited by Dr. Peter Kwasniewski. The imagery…
Catholics have been brawling for about a week now over the pope’s comments, released in the new documentary Francesco, in support of homosexual civil unions. Some stragglers, apparently immune to reality and all its pomps, are still in denial over the unprecedented support shown by Francis for these “gravely immoral” (the Church’s words, not mine)…
Editor’s Note: On October 24th, Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò gave the address below to the attendees of the 2020 Catholic Identity Conference. He sent the text of his address to 1P5 for publication. Since our receipt of that address, The Remnant has also published a video of the talk, which we have included preceding the…
In his most recent podcast, Steve Skojec described the obviously deliberate games of ambiguity of the Bergoglian pontificate as a “Lovecraftian puzzle game”. “Francis is a monster of ambiguity and insinuation, making him a walking Rorschach test. Trying to pin down what he actually says or does often feels like the kind of Lovecraftian puzzle…
The month of November begins with the great Solemnity of All Saints. But in the traditional Roman calendar, All Saints is preceded shortly before by an even greater feast—that of Christ the King, the One who creates and sanctifies the citizens, ambassadors, and soldiers of His Kingdom. When Pope Pius XI instituted the feast of…
On this episode, Steve dives into and tries to make sense of the controversy surrounding Pope Francis’s comments on gay civil unions, as well as the story the controversy has managed to cover for: a two-year extension of the Vatican’s blood money deal with Beijing. In the second half of the show, Steve answers your…
Yesterday, on the occasion of the Rome Film Festival, the director Evgeny Afineevsky presented a documentary called Francesco, which proposes several interviews done with Jorge Mario Bergoglio over the course of the last few years of his pontificate. Among other disconcerting statements, there are several about the legitimization of homosexual civil unions: “What we have…
By a Homeschooling Catholic Mom I just finished Rod Dreher’s outstanding new book, Live Not by Lies. I knew his book discussed the coming soft-totalitarianism, and I was hoping for some ideas of HOW to react to such persecution coming from secular actors, whether the state, big corporations, or both. Dreher provides great encouragement, explaining…
As could be expected in any age, no matter how rotten the circumstances, the Lord continues to raise up men and women who have the traits of holiness. Two well-known examples are Blessed Chiara Badano (1971–1990) and Blessed Carlo Acutis (1991–2006). Does the fact that they lived exclusively within the sphere of the Novus Ordo…
