Accompanying Herod: Why did People Go out in the Wilderness to See John the Baptist?

 “Did you find everything you were looking for?” I remember the first time I heard that question.  I had been looking around that store for what seemed to be hours.  At one point, I asked a clerk in the store to help and they had to go get some help.  They never returned. As I…

A biblical scene featuring John the Baptist in a red robe, speaking to King Herod and his court. A woman stands beside Herod, while another figure kneels on the floor. The text reads: "Kasper said that it is too difficult to make straight the way, so you should just desire to make it straight and not worry because it is the best you can do. So try some of that and see what you can do." The setting is ornate with rich colors, including reds, golds, and blues."

The Church of Wussies: this is why John the Baptist was Beheaded

I’ve gotten sick of hearing the phrase “oh, if they do that, it will cause a schism.”  Almost always there is some quasi-pastoral calculus as to why we should suffer a stupidity in order to keep the faithful in the Church. Communion in the hand, for instance. A stupid, mind-numbing, pernicious attack on true faith. Rather than correct…

For $12 Million, at least build a Catholic Church – AmChurch in Las Vegas Diocese

Is it possible that AmChurch is plainly revealing the new theology dreamt of by modernists? Readers are no doubt aware of the modernists of whom Pope Pius X wrote who, like termites, consume the Church from within, and seek to introduce the new theology.  The new theology, of course, is born of hell.  It is…

SPECULATION: Did Putin Tell Trump to Out the Pedophiles, or he will? Spadaro’s PR coup

Pope Francis Warned of the Sacrilegious Cult.  Banker Pedophiles?  Spadaro threw a Molotov cocktail.  Putin delivers an Ultimatum to Trump?  And still no one is talking about the Vatican auditor that resigned. A few weeks ago, I was listening to the radio and the topic was the meeting of Trump and Putin at the G20….

Sometimes you just wonder something and keep the idea to yourself. Then, when someone else mentions it, you begin to think…  “hmmm…  I might not be alone in thinking that.” It’s human nature… we follow the latest sensational thing. Some call it the “watch the ball” sleight of hand politicians use. If a scandal erupts, do something outrageous. People…

Zuckerberg’s Facebook Church is Real … Don’t Misunderstand him

Recently, there was a bunch of hooey because Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg said he thought Facebook groups could replace church for many people. I think he’s right. Unfortunately, I take the opposite stance that the Federalist took. They said Mark Zuckerberg doesn’t understand church. They explain that Facebook cannot replace church. See, Mark Zuckerberg Is Clueless About Church If He…

All Are Welcome? Gay Orgies at the Vatican? St. John Chrysostom has an answer

No doubt you’ve already read many reports of the police arrest of a high ranking Vatican monsignor. The police raided a debauchery of cocaine and “lusts among men” occurring in the apartment of Cardinal Coccopalmerio. This Cardinal has publicly stated that the church should emphasize the “positive” aspects of homosexual relationships. I don’t really need to bring…

If Gay Pride Was All About “Love”, then Why Do they Lash Out at Bishop Paprocki?

One of my favorite scenes from Casablanca is when the white-suited man comes up to the couple seated to dine outside. He is warning them that they must be careful in Casablanca… there are vultures, vultures everywhere!

Father Hardon: How to Stop the Sexual Suicide

I was sitting at my desk one day and someone came to my office door and commented that they thought I was sitting in the dark. They say that because I didn’t have the bright fluorescent lights on, but let natural light come in the window. A little while later, someone else came and said the exact…
