Yes, it’s Bad, but Stop Belly Aching and Start Acting like a Soldier of Christ
It was a changing point in my life: “Lord, I feel really bad for you because I can leave this place, but You can’t!” I’ve never really looked at things the same ever since then. I had walked into a new parish to me in Michigan, one that was close to where I lived, and was…

You Know Nothing
Recently, his Eminence Timothy Cardinal Dolan, called out Republican Presidential Candidate Donald Trump out on his xenophobic rant on immigration, essentially calling him a “Know Nothing”.

Indulge Me, Please!
Let me indulge you for a second – in plenary indulgences that is. Shortly after I was married, I took my husband to my aunt’s house in Massachusetts for dinner. Someone brought up the war in Iraq and I thought, “Dear God, here we go.” There is nothing that an Irish Catholic family from Boston…
The Apostle to the Apostles
St. Mary Magdalene is one of the most inspiring figures in the Gospels, for she shows that God can turn our sins around and transform us into His Glory. Unfortunately, she has been used by many with an agenda to subvert the powerful revelation of Christ’s love for His Church. The Da Vinci Code Was…
ACTION ALERT! AmChurch Meat Grinder returns to Church of Our Saviour in New York
Over the decades, I have encountered the lame, stupid, and frankly tendentious “excuses” given by the apparatchiks of destruction, the front men for the insatiable beast of hell otherwise known as AmChurch (see, e.g. this post). The most inane tripe is passed off on the authority of a position to do the most treacherous things. For instance,…
Sustainable Development: A GLOBAL AGENDA FOR POPULATION CONTROL
The following is a reprint from the Wanderer Forum Foundation. On the heels of Laudato Si, it is important to remember from where some of the environmental movement got its strides.

The Marxist March Against Marriage and the Response Our Lady Asked For
A couple years ago, I posted one of the best images about marriage today and it came from the old St. Joseph Baltimore Catechism. Featuring both the worldly judge and the Eternal Judge rendering opinions of what was before them. The image shows a couple obtaining a no fault divorce, and a judge granting it to them. To…
