The biological solution is underway. Consider this. Those who now control the Catholic Church (pope, cardinals, archbishops and some bishops) were ordained during a time when almost half of all priests believed abortion was not always a sin, and nearly 75% believed homosexuality was not always a sin. Today, those priests who believe these things are always a sin are over 80%. This is a vast improvement. Do the math. Liberal control of the Church is slipping away due to basic biology. That’s why they’re so hysterically and desperately trying to hang on to control while they still can.

Survey Finds Catholic Priests Are Becoming More Orthodox
American Catholic priests ordained after 2010 are more likely to be theologically conservative and to affirm Church teaching on controversial moral issues than priests ordained in prior decades, a survey published this week found. The survey showed that newly…

Shh. Just a little secret. Don’t tell anyone. In spite of what the media projects, and what so many old bishops are trying to slow down, the Catholic priesthood is actually getting radically more traditional and orthodox! Shh. Don’t tell anyone.

This is a false dichotomy. Christians CAN receive a vaccine, therapeutic or drug. To say that it’s an “either-or” thing is to say God requires something he does not. If you don’t want the vaccine, don’t take it, but at the same time, don’t accuse others of lacking faith just because you don’t want a jab.
People are worried about the “New World Order,” and “One World Government.” What if I told you it has already existed, for decades, and you were just oblivious to it this whole time?
It’s true. The New Wold Order (NWO) began immediately following World War II, with the United States sitting atop a coalition of nations working toward a One World Government (OWG). To symbolize this transition, we even started to print it on our money — Novus Ordo Seclorum — just to let everyone know our intentions. Only the Soviet Union stood in the way at the time.
In the wake of the Persian Gulf War, and fall of the Soviet Union, President George H. W. Bush publicly announced the final emergence of the NWO in 1991, again with the United States at the top. Every time the UN General Assembly gathers, and every time the G20 meets, we are witnessing the NWO and OWG in progress. It’s been going on for a very long time.
Americans don’t really fear the NWO, just so long as our government is running the show. The hyper-awareness (and rising fear) of the NWO today is not really about the NWO itself. It’s about the realization that the United States may be losing its position at the top of the global government, which has been in place for decades now.

This is a very insightful interview on Eucharistic theology with His Excellency Steven J. Lopes, Bishop of the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter (POCSP). It’s exactly the sort of thing US bishops and priests should view going into this upcoming USCCB conference that is to address the Eucharist. Please share this with them.
Basically, the gist of this interview is what we would expect from Bishop Lopes. Reception of communion by pro-abortion politicians is inconsistent with Catholic life and cannot be permitted. There is a great need for traditional renewal of the liturgy as the liturgy is part of the very reinforcement of doctrine. Women cannot be ordained, etc., checking all the boxes of what a good bishops should promote.
The heart of this interview is what really matters, expressed in the WHY of proper Eucharistic formation, recalling the teachings of Pope Saint John Paul II. It’s about an hour long, but well worth it. As a footnote, Bishop Lopes accounts for significant post-lockdown growth of the POCSP, while some mainstream dioceses are struggling with a 40% loss in mass attendance.

Bishop Steven Lopes: John Paul II's Doctrine of the Eucharist
The fifth lecture in our Truth and Tradition Summer Theology Lecture series, Bishop Lopes gives us a dynamic and informative overview of two of John Paul II's most important documents on the Eucharist.
ANY CATHOLIC may join a parish within the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter (POCSP) which is a canonical jurisdiction, within the Catholic Church and fully recognized by Rome, that covers both the United States and Canada. The POCSP has significantly grown since the pandemic lockdown, while other dioceses in the US and Canada struggle with as much as a 40% drop in Sunday Mass attendance. So with the decline of virtually every US and Canadian diocese, why is the POCSP growing!?

THIS IS HUGE. For the first time in over a century and a half, a US Senator has seriously entertained the prospect of state secession from the United States. While Leftists will obviously try to use this to demonize Ted Cruz, the elephant in the living room as that a very large number of Texans do want secession. If Democrats continue to push the nation Left, then that number can only grow. Cruz recognizes this, and while he is not personally open to secession yet, he has left that door open for the future.
If Texas secedes by popular vote, there will be nothing Washington DC can do to stop it. This is not 1861. Any military intervention by the federal government will immediately be seized upon, by America's enemies (China, North Korea, Iran, and even Russia), as complete hypocrisy.
Once Texas goes, even if the federal government doesn't recognize it, that will shift the political orientation of the nation further Left, with Texas no longer participating in federal elections. This will result in more Red states pealing away. The Union will completely fracture, and leadership of the New World Order will go to Russia.

Ted Cruz wants Texas to secede if U.S. comes to a "point where it's hopeless"
The senator said he wasn't ready to secede yet, and that Texas has a "responsibility" to keep the nation from "going off a cliff."
BREAKING: A major poll study was done by The Pillar (a faithful and orthodox Catholic newspaper) that far exceeds anything done by Pew Research Forum. It not only tells the "what" of the Catholic demographic decline, but also the "why." The bottom line is this, and it sounds silly to have to say it, but if you want to stack the odds in your favor that your kids will remain Catholic, get them to Mass!
Weekly Mass attendance as children seemed to be the one consistent factor. Of course, there were a good number who remained Catholic who attended Mass less than once a week, but the most consistent numbers came from those who attended weekly as children. That said, more is not always better, because daily Mass attendance seemed to make no difference in the outcome. So while it appears to be harmless to take your children to mass more often than once a week, it doesn't seem to be more beneficial either, as far as their outcome is concerned. The real risk occurs when you take your kids to mass less than once a week.

There is a lot of Evangelical freak-out going on right now, over something Pope Francis said recently, about asking Big Tech to censor social media. Ha! If only they knew! This pope is guilty of things far more serious than that. Anyway, I composed this podcast to help Catholics deal with difficult popes, like Pope Francis. Perhaps the Evangelicals need to listen too.
