How long does it take for a tragedy to be interpreted through the lens of political opportunity? Is there no respite for mere sorrow before the vultures begin editorializing?.
just a dream: a papal bull by Leo XIV, in English, condemning the Second Amendment and stuff like that.

This doesn't account for how many lay FSSP supporters end up in diocesan seminaries. 3 out of 4 entries into my diocesan seminary were from the FSSP chaplaincy 2 years ago.
@Merzamatruh42 @holysmoke The FSSP, which is the most successful of the traditional groups, ordains 12-20 men per year worldwide. The most successful dioceses tend to meet their mark - Seoul, Korea ordained 26 (!) men this year.

Is NFP just contraception for Catholics? What's the traditional teaching of the Church? .

If this is accurate, someone in mainstream Catholic media needs to investigate and cover this story. @PillarCatholic @jdflynn @cnalive @NCRegister.
Abp. Wester and Bp. Stowe were both present for this meeting and said NOTHING to address the grave errors and gross immorality being presented. The AUSCP MUST be exposed and condemned! Send this to your bishop and ask him to publicly condemn the AUSCP!

Meanwhile, the ones addressing refuting Orthodoxy/Protestantism are the best performing. The appetite for controversy & indifference for "positive" content is hard to ignore. It can be very discouraging investing the amount of effort it takes to produce something with low views.

Content producers get a lot of grief about clickbait and controversy, but consider the position we're put in. Of my recent videos, I did one about how to get free from porn. I consider it one of my most important ever. It's also one of the worst performing in months.

Liberalism was a revolutionary response to Christendom. Socialism was a revolutionary response to the failures of liberalism. Fascism was a failed revolutionary response to the failures of liberalism and socialism. Fascism is the most progressive of the sequence of modernity.

Every time this happens, I stop and think, "Why not Orthodoxy?". 📽️ Watch Below 👇

We've all heard of cancelled clergy. But I've noticed, that there are some who seem untouchable and the common denominator seems to be that they have a licentiate, especially in canon law. Perhaps something to think about for our young, faithful, clergy/seminarians.

The pursuit of mastery over nature through technologies like IVF is not true progress, but a regression into slavery. Without the compass of natural law, society repeats the hubris of eugenics, ignoring that the ends can never justify unjust means.
