The Declaration of Christian Nationalism
1. Christian Nationalists (or Christian Patriots) are Christians, before anything else, we profess to be followers of Jesus Christ and his Apostles. One cannot be a Christian Nationalist, unless one is first a Christian, but it is possible for non-Christians to be friendly and sympathetic toward the Christian Nationalist movement. Christianity is not limited to […]

How to Bring Back the Youth
The mainstream Catholic Church is failing, and will continue to fail more dramatically in the years ahead. Dioceses will downsize, parishes will close and be merged. It’s all part of the managed-decline of the Boomer Bishops who are still trying to impose a 1970s mindset on the Church. Where are the youth? How do we […]

A Catholic Perspective on Christian Nationalism
The term “Christian Nationalism” was coined by the political Left, in an attempt to frighten people into fear of politically-active Christians. It’s most used by Leftist media and news outlets, in a nearly hysterical way, so as to incite as much panic among their viewers and readers as possible. It’s often thrown in with the […]

A Catholic Approach to American Politics
Catholics are constantly being told to keep our religion out of politics. For that matter, Evangelicals are being told the same thing too. Upon hearing such admonitions, we should consider the source, and we should also consider that if we are truly Catholic, and I mean truly Catholic and not just giving lip-service, then it […]

How to Deal with Corruption in the Catholic Church
As Catholics, we’ve been treated to a steady diet of Church corruption, modernist agendas and weak bishops for literally decades now. The problem appears to be getting better in some areas, mainly in small dioceses, but simultaneously getting worse, mainly in bigger (arch)dioceses, the college of cardinals and the Vatican. As frustrating as this is, […]

How to Evangelize the Evangelicals
As Catholics, we seem to have a deficit when dealing with Evangelicals. In short, there is a bit of a language gap. There are, of course, instances where Catholics and Evangelicals just don’t see eye-to-eye, and probably never will. However, there are other instances where Catholics and Evangelicals are basically talking about the exact same […]

Living in a Post-Roe America
While I was on vacation in South Carolina, the ruling came down for the Dobbs v Jackson case. It was Friday, June 24. I was not surprised, considering the trajectory of this Supreme Court and the leak of the Alito Opinion earlier this year, I was relieved and overjoyed that Roe v Wade had finally […]

Repeal the Fourteenth Amendment
Perhaps the greatest threat to the United States of America is not some foreign power, or even ideological systems within the nation. Perhaps the greatest threat to the United States is something hidden within our own Constitution. Perhaps it is something that may have seemed like a good idea to a lot of people, at […]

The Resurrection of Christian Nationalism
The political Left has gone into full boogeyman mode over “Christian nationalism,” acting as if religion has never played a serious role in American politics before. NEWS FLASH: If your ancestors were freed slaves, or benefited from the civil rights movement, you can thank Christian nationalism, because nobody fought slavery and segregation harder than Christian […]

Take Back June for the Sacred Heart of Jesus
The month of June has been co-opted by the secular usurpers as LGBTQI+ month. (I swear, this acronym gets more letters every year.) Popular Catholic author and YouTuber, Dr. Taylor Marshall, likes to call it the “LMNOP movement” of the alphabet people. I concur with his label of the “alphabet people,” as it seems just […]
