Mark Shea's Blog: So That No Thought of Mine, No Matter How Stupid, Should Ever Go Unpublished Again!
…the denizens of the American Catholic blog, and all in that orbit of things: The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace. I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen. [Read more...]
When we debated back in October, one of the things I noticed about him was that he quietly and adamantly refused to attack Pope Francis (and that in a roomful of guys who showed no hesitation about registering their… disquiet… about the Holy Father). It impressed me then. It impresses me even more now. Why? [Read More...]
When we think of menaces to the Church or obvious dissenters, who should we think of? Pelosi? Sebelius? Islamic murderers of Christians? Apostate theologians who say Jesus was eaten by wild dogs? Crony capitalists destroying families with unjust wages? Of course not! No the huge threat we face are the best evangelists of our generation. [Read More...]
That’ll be tomorrow at St. Augustine parish for the Argument of the Month club. Here’s the, uh, write-up: Oktoberfest at AOTM- Special Event- Starts at 3pm Roll up your sleeves, men, and come hungry—not only for the debate of the year, but also for Oktoberfest beer, brats, cigars, and more in the tent outside and [Read More...]
Here is the extremely level-headed and modest flyer the Argument of the Month guys have whomped up Oct 8th AOTM Oktoberfest Double Header First at 6pm: Two Heavyweights go toe-to-toe: Mark Shea vs. Michael Voris One Night. One Fight. Who’s Got It Right? In a world so militantly secularized that even the Catholic Church cannot [Read More...]
We talked for about an hour. Got a chance to know each other a bit and I had a chance to lay out most of my concerns. It ended on a friendly note, though I don’t think I really got through to him. I promised I wouldn’t talk about anything he said, so I can’t [Read More...]
He writes: I just finished watching the following video by Michael Voris that I’ve seen posted by a few friends in various venues: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8U4b6n-iRw&feature=player_embedded#at=352 I was interested in your reaction to it. I think there’s much that’s true in what Voris says in this video; however, like some of his other presentations, I found it [Read More...]
Gentle Reader: If it shocks you to hear me say this, consider the possibility that you’ve never really understood a word I’ve said. [Read more...]
So the most excellent Simcha Fisher, being a healthy human being, notes her distaste with Michael Voris offering a Caribbean Lenten Luxury Cruise for a thousand bucks a head (all while trying to portray the whole thing as some valiant act of spiritual warfare with Enemies of His Pure Faith while, as is his custom, [Read More...]
Lifesite News issues a bulletin instructing the faithful to do what Voris acolytes always do: delude themselves that in attacking faithful Catholics they are bravely standing up to a shadowy liberal conspiracy when in fact they are living in a fantasy world. Readers in the combox immediately comply, slandering good Abp. Vigneron, just as, at [Read More...]
…to mainstream a Paranoid Conspiracy Theorist by conducting an hour long challenge-free, wink-and-nod, chuckle-about-those-silly-critics infomercial for E. Michael Jones, who has been obsessing about the Jew Menace for years as well as giving a welcome for the egregious Robert Sungenis as an intellectual ally to do the same. This is not too surprising since I reported on [Read More...]
A very fair and perceptive fisk boils it down to this: Voris and the Church are one. Criticize him and you oppose the Church and serve the Powers of Darkness. Sorry. Not buying the demagoguery. He’s taking a great many words to say, “There’s an evil conspiracy against me and so I don’t have to [Read More...]
