Anatomy of a Schism
Having been an Anglican briefly, before becoming Catholic, I watch the breakup of the Anglican Communion unfold with sadness both before and after my reception into the Catholic Church. That breakup continues to this day, though arguably, the key moments in the process are now behind us, and the trajectory is set into its end […]

Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is
Do not confuse the Catholic Church with the corrupt hierarchy. These are two totally different things. The Catholic Church has been infiltrated by corrupt clergy in the past. And each time, these corrupt clergy were defeated not by schism, (the Protestant solution), nor by miracles, (the unlikely solution), but rather by faithful Catholic clergy and […]

Understanding Terms: Christian, Catholic & Protestant
This morning I read an article (see here) that made me laugh, because it relayed a story about a cardinal in the Catholic Church who doesn’t seem to understand some very basic terms. He suggested that Catholics who protest some actions of the pope ought to become Protestants, because that’s what they essentially are. I […]

The English Patrimony is for All Catholics
If you’re a Catholic, and you speak English as your primary language, then you have a special heritage you may not even be aware of. The English Patrimony, lost in the Protestant world for centuries, has now been restored to the Catholic Church. I’m talking about the English spiritual heritage that was originally Catholic, from […]

Retaking The Catholic Church
I have been asked to write a short and concise battle plan for retaking the Catholic Church for traditional orthodoxy, and saving it from the crisis that is currently unfolding. The battle plan is simple and easy to follow. Victory is assured for those who follow it, both in their personal lives (short term) and […]
