…way out in old Dublin town! We met about ten years ago in when I was in Ireland and took a shine to each other. So I thought it would be great to have him on the show! We spent the hour talking about the situation of the Church in Ireland, as well as the Easter Rising of 1916 (when even the radical Socialists were all Rosary-saying Catholics) and how the Church got from there to its present predicament. We... Read more
Over the years, I’ve gotten to know a guy named W. Keith Moore who is in a band called The Wineskins. Here’s the title track off their new album: You can go here to buy the whole thing: Read more
Mary gets by on a wing a prayer and they have a little kid they are trying to feed. Please help if you can! Both money and prayer are appreciated! Read more
My latest for The Catholic Weekly, a new series on the first line of the Creed: The very first thing we do as followers of God who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is believe and speak. The two go together like the deity and humanity of Jesus Christ. We say, “I believe” because we are taking personal ownership of a revelation we did not invent but which God, in his grace, has revealed to us. God desires that we take... Read more
Some time back I wrote a piece for The Catholic Weekly on my youthful struggles with solipsism. A reader resonated with this and wrote me: I hope this will be short – it’s just to touch base and thank you for your article on solipsism. It meant a lot to me because there’s a little opening to dark terror in my mind which I slip by quickly and ignore – when I was a pre-teen I called it “The Horrible... Read more
Brett Kavanaugh has been nominated for the SCOTUS and is on record as saying, “I would follow Roe v. Wade faithfully and fully. That would be binding precedent of the court. It’s been decided by the Supreme Court. . . . ” and (when not even asked by Chuck Schumer to discuss anything more than Roe) voluntarily continuing: ‘It has been reaffirmed many times, including in Planned Parenthood v. Casey.” So this seems like a good time to reiterate my... Read more
So here’s a story that again, got almost no coverage from Right Wing Media when it broke in 2013, but got plenty of coverage in what consumers of Right Wing Lie Machine media call “fake news”: Undocumented Minors Represent Themselves In Court It’s hard to imagine kids defending themselves in court, but that’s often what happens when undocumented minors wind up in immigration proceedings. Children who immigrate illegally to the United States often must face the courts on their own,... Read more
As Steel Magnificat covered last week, four priests showed up at the Trump rally in Montana, cheering and laughing as the Sex Predator in Chief made fun of sexual assault victims and ginned up the mob to jeer at the desperate refugees whose children he is traumatizing, kidnapping, and holding hostage. He also trashed two dying men (Bush 41 and McCain) and engaged in his schoolyard bullying of other political enemies. It was a disgusting display, made vastly worse by... Read more
I am sick and tired of the bad press the Egyptian government is getting for guarding their sovereign borders. Why did “Saint” Joseph take his wife and infant son on a dangerous trek to another country instead of staying home, being a courageous Spiritual Warrior and Patriot, raising an army and fighting to free his country? I am so sick of SJWs making excuses for these cowardly parasites who abandon their homeland when the going gets a little hard and... Read more
A Christian believes that life is sacred from conception to natural death. The American Gun Cult, in contrast, has striven for 30 years to see to it that this, sung to the tune of “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” is now to be the New Normal in kindergartens across America: A mother in Massachusetts took this photo inside her kindergartner’s classroom. One Twitter user described the rhyme as “something out of a horror movie.” STORY >> https://t.co/TCIoUr6KaF pic.twitter.com/HJ9JhzgLw4 — TucsonNewsNow (@TucsonNewsNow)... Read more
