In the entry “Before the ‘Happy’ Church,” Alex writes with power and precision of his memories of the traditional Roman Catholic Church of his boyhood. I say “power” because of the evocative nature of his descriptions, and also because of the melancholy his words engender in my own heart when I think on the vast difference between his experiences and my own.

With apologies to Alex, may I describe the Protestant world in the South, during my boyhood in the late ’60s? (more…)

A NEW PODCAST on "Catholic" divorce and the Kim Davis case can be found here.

EARLIER this year, Abby Johnson described at Lifesite News the frightening medical condition she has suffered since taking "birth control" injections of Depo Provera. Anti-Woman Feminism strikes again. I thought for a long time that my headaches must have been related to my Depo Provera use, but I didn’t have that confirmation until I was diagnosed. My neurologist told me that he very often saw this condition manifest after women took hormonal birth control…particularly birth control containing progestin. So I had to deal with the fact that because I was so desperate not to get pregnant, I put something in my body that gave me a life-long disorder, and could make me go blind. Bill and Melinda Gates are spending some of their immense fortune in bringing Depo Provera to women in 69 "developing" countries. Their foundation aims to give this toxin to a staggering 225 million women. How's that for global, oligarchic ambition? Aside from harming women, preventing births and undermining social order, this evil plot will inevitably create a backlash against the West once women in the "developing" world realize they have been poisoned.  

THE break up of the Anglican Church is very, very complicated. I think the bottom line is: We'll all go our own way but pretend we are still affiliated.

NETWORK AMERICA is an organization seeking to renew American politics through the existing precinct system. Form contacts and friendships now through this system of local interaction. Forget the Trump rallies, folks. Start anew. Hope for the best. But plan for the worst.

I commend your excellent work on exposing the essence of The Talmud. I can assure that while today very few Jews know what is in the Talmud, an unhealthy percentage of them nonetheless go into Ashkenazi Apoplexy when Gentiles merely mention the name, Talmud. It is like, “Oh stoot! Who let the Kosher Kat out of the bag?” I am only half Gentile and a practicing Catholic to boot, and my comparison of the Talmud to the Quran in a family email has branded me an outcast among my mother’s Jewish family circle. No more Bar Mitzvahs for me – which is a shame, because they are the only place you can get really good chopped liver. (more…)

Shall I say what the Church was when I was growing up in Chicago in the late ’50s?

Six a.m. mass said in the cold, dark of winter with one little old lady dressed in black occupying the back row.

Ringing the church bells for Mass and allowing the rope to carry you up 15 feet to the ceiling.

Christmas High Mass at midnight with hundreds of parishioners and many altar servers.

The doors to the church open late everyday so you could pray when it came on you. (more…)

THE CENTER for Medical Progress’ grisly tour de force continues with the tenth undercover video of Planned Parenthood personnel who admit to trafficking in the bodies of babies.

From Breitbart:

“We’ve just been working with people who want particular tissues, like, you know, they want cardiac, or they want eyes, or they want neural,” Dr. Carolyn Westhoff, Senior Medical Advisor for Planned Parenthood for America tells a hidden camera. “Certainly, everything we provide–oh, gonads! Oh my God, gonads. Everything we provide is fresh.”

But don’t hold your breath waiting for Planned Parenthood to be defunded or expect anyone to be charged with a crime. The organization continues to get millions in federal funds and the mainstream media continues to underplay the story. (more…)

THE ACTRESS Kim Cattrall says she’s a mother even though she has no children.

Cattrall is right that one can be maternal without having children, but she takes that idea too far. (more…)

IN THIS recent interview, Ron Paul blames U.S. intervention in the Middle East for the "utter mess" we are now witnessing.

FROM VOCATIV: Every year, about more than 9.2 million people from around the world enter America’s Green Card lottery. If they are one of about 50,000 names picked at random, they get a free pass to legally resettle in the U.S. But there’s also another way to get the doors to the U.S. to open: cough up half-a-million dollars. And the Chinese are taking full advantage of it. More than 9,000 Chinese immigrants basically bought their way into America last year. Chinese citizens were issued roughly 40 times more investor visas (also known as EB-5 visas) than any other country. South Korea was second, with just 225 immigrant investor visas. Five countries — China, South Korea, Vietnam, China (Taiwan-born) and Mexico — accounted for a staggering 90 percent of all investor visas issued in 2014, according to the U.S. Department of State.

Over the last few months there has been a tremendous amount of speculation and claims that portions of the mainstream media promoted Black Lives Matter movement are actively promoting and actually carrying out the killing of police officers throughout the country. (more…)

BRUCE B. writes in response to this previous post:

A common assertion by modern Christians (I saw a women claim this recently in an online Catholic discussion forum) is that God wants us “to be happy.” If I understand Christianity correctly, this is the wrong “H” word. God wants us to be holy. Being holy can and often does conflict with our happiness. Isn’t that what taking up our crosses means? So while God doesn’t literally want the opposite (for us to be unhappy), saying that God wants us to be (in an earthly sense) unhappy would be closer to the truth. (more…)

  ARETHA FRANKLIN, the superannuated "Queen of Soul" who is a standard at mass public events, will be among those performing for "Pope" Francis in Philadelphia on Sept. 26. In this video, the Protestant divorceé sings her hit "Sisters Doin' It for Themselves," a paean to humility and modesty in women.
