Making The World Right

August 13, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Making The World Right

BY JOE SIXPACK An overworked and very tired businessman was trying to relax and read the evening paper in peace and quiet. His six year old son, as small children are wont to do, wanted his father’s attention, and the boy asked question after question to engage his father for the paternal attention he wanted. The father needed a little relaxation, so he tried to think of a way to get the boy to give him a little peace without hurting his son’s feelings, which led to an idea.The man took an advertising page from the paper that had a picture of a map of the world on one side. He tore the picture into many pieces and told his…Continue Reading

Virus Aliens Good, U.S. Carriers Bad… Again Biden Prefers Illegals Over Citizens, This Time For COVID

By DEXTER DUGGAN PHOENIX — The major Greyhound bus station here is on the edge of Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, making it easy to reach either of these transportation hubs when coming from, oh, let’s say the Mexican border. It’s nearly a three-hour drive to arrive here from border-straddling Nogales, to the southeast.Both this capital city of Phoenix and its Grand Canyon State of Arizona are affected deeply by Joe Biden’s disastrous, grim open-borders ideology. Even more so when the Biden administration shows a literally insane determination to spread untreated COVID virus-carriers who’ve crossed the southern border around the United States.If you live in Boston, Pittsburgh, Louisville, Chicago, Kansas City, Miami, Panama City, Billings, Seattle, or anywhere else in…Continue Reading

How Can We Help?… Good Priests Are Being Canceled

August 11, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on How Can We Help?… Good Priests Are Being Canceled

By CHRISTOPHER MANION Two weeks ago, we introduced our readers to Fr. John Lovell, a leader in the newly formed Coalition for Canceled Priests. The Coalition, an initiative of priests and laity alike, has been formed to address a growing problem in the priesthood and hierarchy: “an unwillingness to resist, and even a desire to celebrate, secular corruptions that have been condemned by the Church since its founding.”Of course, there are many who resist this corruption. They are “faithful priests and bishops who preach and practice the eternal Faith,” according to the Coalition’s website. The problem is that all too often, these good men are persecuted when they boldly preach the faith.In the language of today’s cultural conflicts, they’ve been…Continue Reading

A Beacon Of Light… Nourishment For The Journey

August 10, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on A Beacon Of Light… Nourishment For The Journey

By FR. RICHARD D. BRETON JR. (Editor’s Note: Fr. Richard D. Breton Jr. is a priest of the Diocese of Norwich, Conn. He received his BA in religious studies and his MA in dogmatic theology from Holy Apostles College and Seminary in Cromwell, Conn.) + + Let’s begin our third day of reflection by praying our retreat prayer:“Jesus, you invited the apostles to come away with you to a deserted place and rest awhile. Like your apostles, enable me to experience you on retreat — your suffering love and tender compassion. May I come to better know myself, to draw closer to you, and to thus be of better service to my brothers and sisters in the Church! Help me…Continue Reading

Middle School “Trans” Indoctrination

August 9, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Middle School “Trans” Indoctrination

By DEACON MIKE MANNO Lately there has been a slew of reports about how unhappy parents are confronting school officials for attempting to indoctrinate their children in ideologies the parents reject. Unfortunately, with the backing of the teachers’ unions and “woke” school administrators, the schools are fighting back sometimes even to the point of violating the law.Unfortunately, these efforts have turned schools into war zones, whether over critical race theory, masks in the classroom, or even if the schools are to open for in-person instruction. It’s the parents vs. the academic community.And also unfortunately, the academic community starts with the upper hand; for to them your children belong to the schools once one realizes that folks with titles and initials…Continue Reading

Bad-Catholic Politicians . . . They’re Enough To Make Rest Of Us Want To Wear Bags Over Our Heads

August 8, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Bad-Catholic Politicians . . . They’re Enough To Make Rest Of Us Want To Wear Bags Over Our Heads

By DEXTER DUGGAN How Catholics should attend church was in the news again recently with Pope Francis’ motu proprio Traditionis Custodes, restricting celebration of the Traditional Latin Mass. However, the issue of bag-headed worshippers in the pews has yet to exist.In sports stadia, the bag-headed fan phenomenon began when a team’s record was so bad, its followers still turned up in the bleachers but were too ashamed to show their faces. So on went grocery bags with eye holes and maybe some crayon flourish.Catholics may be fans of good or bad sports squads. However, they have plenty of reason to put on the bags and be ashamed of any connection with the most powerful politicians in the United States —…Continue Reading

Democrat “Double Standards”? Or “No Standards”?

August 7, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Democrat “Double Standards”? Or “No Standards”?

By CHRISTOPHER MANION The illusory world of America’s left gets more crowded every day, as the Democrats’ Arrogance Army continues its offensive against the American dream.We recall Rhode Island Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, the anti-Catholic bigot who unashamedly explains his membership in an exclusive all-white yacht club as a “long tradition.”By Joe Biden’s standards, Whitehouse would qualify as a “white supremacist,” and Joe wouldn’t be alone. Now Brother Gary Dantzler, Executive Director of Black Lives Matter Rhode Island, agrees.“I am ashamed of Senator Whitehouse and his affiliation with this racist club. Him coming out and speaking about ending systemic racism while belonging to a ‘whites only’ private club is hypocrisy as it worst,” Dantzler told GoLocal Providence.Like most hypocrites, Whitehouse is…Continue Reading

How Do We Know The Bible Is The Inspired Word Of God?

August 6, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on How Do We Know The Bible Is The Inspired Word Of God?

BY JOE SIXPACK For non-Catholic Christians, the Bible is the sole rule of faith, which as we learned two weeks ago is called sola Scriptura. The question that immediately comes to mind is, why should anyone even consider the Bible inspired by the Holy Spirit, much less the sole rule of faith? How do we know the Bible is the inspired Word of God?Ask anyone at random how they know the Bible is inspired by the Holy Spirit . . . even ask yourself or the person sitting next to you . . . and you’ll get all sorts of answers that are mere guesses. They will say things like, “Well, the Bible is so inspirational, which is how I…Continue Reading

Eager Trump Audience . . . Not A Bit Tired Of Hearing About Need To Have Election Integrity

August 5, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Eager Trump Audience . . . Not A Bit Tired Of Hearing About Need To Have Election Integrity

By DEXTER DUGGAN PHOENIX — Donald Trump’s election-integrity speech here once again underlined the remarkable contrast of the physically robust incumbent president who had strongly increased his total ballots from 2016 but still supposedly lost by around seven million votes in 2020 to a weak, befuddled, obviously declining man who mainly avoided the campaign trail.Republican Trump packed the Arizona Federal Theatre in downtown Phoenix on July 24 with 4,000 people, while thousands overflowed outside, said Brian Glenn, a commentator on the scene for the Right Side Broadcasting Network (RSBN). The young people’s Turning Point Action organization hosted Trump for a “Rally to Protect Our Elections” during its convention here.Trump belted out his talk for an hour and 47 minutes without…Continue Reading

Why The Church The Treasure Of Her Past To Move Forward

August 4, 2021 Frontpage Comments Off on Why The Church The Treasure Of Her Past To Move Forward

By JAMES MONTI In reading through the numerous news stories regarding the issuance of the Motu Proprio Traditionis Custodes of Pope Francis, I came across a reference to one bishop who has decided not only to ban entirely the Traditional Latin Mass in his diocese but also to call upon his priests to “avoid” the use in the Novus Ordo of traditional-style vestments, including curiously enough the humeral veil, a vestment that is actually required for several rites in the Novus Ordo.While it is not for me to judge the intentions of this prelate in his decision, such a mandate does seem to suggest a way of viewing the Church’s past and her liturgical patrimony that is quite troubling —…Continue Reading
