December the 12 is the celebration of Our Lady of Guadalupe, elevated on the eve of the Third Millennium by Pope John Paul II from a commemoration to a feast. He also declared her patroness of all of ‘America’, south, central, and north, as well as the primary intercessor for the unborn, who are much[…]
Hear me and understand well, my son the least, that nothing should frighten or grieve you. Let not your heart be disturbed. Do not fear that sickness, nor any other sickness or anguish. Am I not here, who is your Mother? Are you not under my protection? Am I not your health? Are you not[…]
Seeking God Through the Wisdom of St. Anselm and Blaise Pascal St. Anselm of Canterbury stands as one of the great minds of Christian history. His works shaped the contours of Western theology, especially his Proslogion, which offers the famous ontological argument for God. In my early studies of theology at Saint Paul University in[…]
During Advent, on December 12, we celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. It is an image traditionally held not to have been made by human hands, a miraculous sign that continues to inspire faith and devotion. This feast also invites reflection on another sacred image: the Icon of the Black Madonna, whose maker[…]
We owe quite a lot to Pope Saint Damasus (305 – 384), who oversaw the universal Church during the tumultuous era of the lingering Arian crisis from 366 to his death in good old age in 384. It was he who approved the decrees of the Council of Constantinople in 381 which condemned the pernicious[…]
President Donald Trump has issued an address to the nation on the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception, the patronal feast of the United States. Neither of his two Catholic predecessors in office – JFK and Joseph Biden – ever did so. And Donald Trump is a Protestant, as was every other president, at least on[…]
It’s almost as incredible as the ever-more strained narrative during the latter days of the ‘Covid Era’: After touting the mRNA ‘vaxx’ as the solution, the powers-that-be are now disowning it, and an about-face is underway. Are they truly repentant, or simply trying to cover their behinds? Well, the U.K. has refused to release data[…]
If you don’t already pray the Litany of Loreto, today may well be a good day to start. A journey begins with one step! First approved by Pope Sixtus V in 1587, not long after the Council of Trent, the invocation to Our Lady seeks her powerful intercession through various ancient and venerable titles, and[…]
The memorial of Lady of Loreto was put back into the universal calendar, on this day by Pope Francis in December, 2019, in those halcyonic months just before the tsunami of Covid-insanity hit the world. Today we celebrate the home where the Holy Family lived. But why Loreto, on the shores of the Adriatic in[…]
Whatever one thinks of ‘CO2’ emissions – and this author, as readers are likely aware, remains unconvinced of the apocalyptic ravings of the climate lobby – one should at least be willing to look at facts. Electric cars are labeled environmentally ‘clean and green’, with special emerald-hued licence plates to prove it. That’s because they[…]
