Alphonse Ratisbonne came here as a hardened Jew. The Virgin appeared to him just as you see her. He fell down a Jew and rose a Christian.  

The Blessed Mother and the Church

According to traditional Catholic theology, there is an intimate and profound relationship between the Blessed Mother and the Church, the Mystical Body of Christ. By the will of God, the universal mediation of Mary is ordinarily necessary for the salvation and sanctification of men, just as the mediation of the Church is also necessary. And, if the Church has been entrusted with the task of guarding and spreading the truths of the faith in their integrity and purity, the Blessed Mother has been given the mission of fighting and conquering the devil, the supreme inspirer and advocate of all errors and heresies.^[1]

With America apparently ready for a homosexual president and a Frist Gentleman in the White House, Michael Matt discusses the downward moral spiral of Western Civilization since the close of the Second Vatican Council.

Of all the conservative commentators, only Rush Limbaugh—a guy with stage 4 lung cancer—is willing to discuss even the possibility that Mayor Pete’s marital status might present a political obstacle. If Limbaugh is homophobic now, says Mr. Matt, well then Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were raging homophobes just a few years ago.

THE POST-SYNODAL “apostolic exhortation” Querida Amazonia (Beloved Amazon) (QA) has finally appeared.  QA says a great deal about very little. It is largely composed of blathering about four “dreams” to be realized (social, cultural, ecological and ecclesial), the obsessive theme of “inculturation,” and the glories of the Amazon, along with assorted ecological observations having no relation to papal authority, including references to the Amazon’s “dazzling diversity of woodlands” which “serves as a great filter of carbon dioxide, which helps avoid the warming of the earth.” And let not the faithful not forget that “the good functioning of ecosystems also requires fungi, algae, worms, insects, reptiles and an innumerable variety of microorganisms…” There are also a number of ludicrous quotations from poetic paeans to the Amazon jungle, including this gem:

From the Editor’s Desk, Michael Matt covers the latest Vatican attack on President Donald Trump. 

Team Francis kicked off this election year with a Vatican conference that targeted Trump by name and the United States in general as THE number one impasse to the construction of the globalists’ new world order.

The Vatican Caucus is gearing up to defeat Donald Trump, as they promote their socialist darling, Bernie Sanders.

It’s 2016 all over again...

Francis is gearing up for the 2020 Vatican Caucus.

The campaign is now underway, the Bernie supporters are firmly ensconced, the pope’s political proxies are issuing statements trashing Donald Trump. The papal bully pulpit is now primed for political warfare.

IN THIS SUNDAY Sermon from South St. Paul, Father tackles the questions of the indissolubility of marriage from a scriptural point of view. Next up, the celibate clergy… its history, its biblical foundation, and its necessity to the life of the Church. 

With the Pope’s post-Amazon Synod Apostolic Exhortation threatening to do away with priestly celibacy, Father gives marching orders to Catholics everywhere: Stand strong and resist!

Editor’s Note: We’re pleased to release Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò’s latest missive, this time confronting the Pope’s “devious strategy” to—as papal advisor Archbishop Victor Fernández put it back in 2015—bring about “reform that is irreversible”; reform that cannot be undone by future popes.

This latest “masterful deception” will see to it that Cardinals made in the image and likeness of Francis will exercise considerable power and influence over the next conclave. In fact, the Dean of the College of Cardinals will be the former right-hand man of Cardinal Angelo Sodano, accused of covering for the most notorious clerical sexual predator of the 20th Century: Legionary of Christ founder, Fr. Marcial Maciel. 

Why would Francis promote someone connected to the orchestrated cover-up of the worst priest predator in history?

From a mountain top in West Virginia, Michael Matt comments on Pope Francis' Apostolic Exhortation, which is due to be released in the next week or so. The thing is evidently so radical that Cardinal Hummes sent out a secret letter to the world's bishops telling them how to make sure the Exhortation is accepted by "people of good will" and all those "in communion with Pope Francis."

In other words, if you object to this latest heterodox bombshell from Francis, you're probably not in full communion with the 'god of surprises.'

It’s every parent’s worst nightmare.  A telephone call in the middle of the night. A social worker in a hospital a thousand miles away: “Your son has been in a life-threatening accident and had a traumatic amputation of his foot.  He’s in emergency surgery now. No, we don’t know anything more at this time.”

Everything real—and I mean everything—screeches to a halt, as the nightmare of the surreal begins.

TODAY AT 11:15 CST, President Donald Trump became the first president in history to attend the D.C. March for Life, addressing the crowd at the National Mall in Washington.

Wednesday was the 47th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. In his speech today at the prolife rally, President Trump reminded us: “At the United Nations, I made it clear that global bureaucrats have no business attacking the sovereignty of nations that protect innocent life.”

Today at 11:15 CST, Mr. Trump will be the first president to attend the D.C. March for Life, and will address the crowd at the National Mall in Washington. Attendees will then march down Constitution Avenue and end at the steps of the Supreme Court.
