Ecclesiastical Self-Incriminating Struggle-Sessions.

By |2026-07-25T21:50:58+00:00July 28th, 2026|Theology|

The above picture is "the governor of Heilongjiang province, Li Fanwu, falling victim to the Cultural Revolution in 1966," (p/c Inside Story of Australia.) Wikipedia describes the history of Communist Struggle Sessions:  People non-compliant to the Communists "were forced to wear placards around their necks bearing the words 'Counter-Revolutionary Revisionist' or other similar slogans with their names crossed out.   Specific methods of abuse included hair shaving (阴阳头) dunce caps, "jetplane position" (喷气式) (a type of stress position), and verbal and physical attacks... The term 'struggle session' refers to a session of pīdòu (批鬥.) The session is held in public and often attended by a large crowd of people, during which the [...]

From Blue-to-Red Pill… Black-to-White Pill

By |2026-07-23T16:46:28+00:00July 23rd, 2026|Updates|

Recently, I wrote an article called Doctrinal Pitfalls to Each Traditional Group.  The first line explains the basics: “Today we consider intellectual pitfalls to the SSPX, FSSP and sedevacantists, specifically on the topics of the papacy and Vatican II to show no one has the 'Rosetta Stone' to the Church crisis.” I then go on to disprove every trad-stance towards the papacy, including my own. In other words, I finally came to the realization that in this "eclipse of the Church" there will be no perfect answer until God Himself reveals it.  That is why we must do what St. Vincent Lerins proposes, namely, to "cling to antiquity." In some [...]

Doctrinal Pitfalls to Each Traditional Group.

By |2026-07-21T16:14:36+00:00July 21st, 2026|Theology|

p/c NASA. Today we consider the intellectual pitfalls to the FSSP, SSPX and sedevacantists, specifically on the topics of the papacy and Vatican II to show no one has the "Rosetta Stone" to the Church crisis. This is a very long one, but I think you’ll find it worth it if you can find the time to sit down and read it. It’s ultimately to unify—not divide—all the traditional groups under Jesus and Mary.  But we have to start with humility towards each other.  Humility is why you will see that I try to disprove even my own camp of views towards the Church crisis below. But let's start at [...]

This may be the most confusing line in the New Testament:  "Make unto you friends of the mammon of iniquity, that when you shall fail, they may receive you into everlasting dwellings."—St. Luke 16:9.  Let's see what the Church Fathers say about it. -Donate: https://www.padreperegrino.org/donate/

Death Penalty for Post-Aborts?

By |2026-07-14T14:01:47+00:00July 14th, 2026|Theology|

p/c Statesman Journal. My answer is "No" to the death penalty for those who have committed abortion, but the abolitionists make a logical argument. Before I get to my answer, let me say I am no softie on abortion. I still try to pray and counsel at the abortion center every other week. I have been arrested for peaceful prayer inside abortion centers on the East Coast twice.  But I am not as extreme as the "abolitionists" and a few Catholics who say that women who have had abortions should receive the Death Penalty. Do people really say such things? Yes. Although NPR is rarely to be trusted, they quoted [...]

Due-Process: Torquemada vs. Tucho.

By |2026-07-07T14:19:42+00:00July 7th, 2026|Theology|

Today, we are going to look at canonical due-process as executed by the 15th century Spanish Grand Inquisitor, Tomás De Torquemada (top left) versus that of Cardinal Tucho Fernandez (top-right.)  Tucho is the Cardinal who allegedly-excommunicated the SSPX recently on 2 July 2026.  (SSPX is the American abbreviation for FSSPX which stands for the Fraternity of the Priestly Society of Pope St. Pius X.) Although a heretic can’t excommunicate anyone (as explained here by the WM Review) we are going to suspend that obvious ecclesial reality in order to evaluate the difference in legal process between the 15th century Dominican and the porn-writer currently living in the Vatican. Fr. William [...]

Cuban Marxism and the Priesthood.

By |2026-07-03T17:39:21+00:00July 3rd, 2026|Updates|

The above picture is from the American Museum of the Cuban Diaspora in Miami on a recent trip.  A Cuban family brought me to this museum, and it was one of the most spectacular and historically-accurate museums I have ever visited.  I learned a lot about fortitude in the priesthood there.  This will hopefully be demonstrated in this article. Upon entering, I was surprised to see ¡Viva Cristo Rey! at the entrance to the Cuban museum.  I wasn't only surprised to see a promotion of Christ in a seemingly-secular museum, but also surprised because I thought ¡Viva Cristo Rey! was the exclusive war cry of Mexican Catholics in the Cristero [...]
