For fifty years, heretics have been promoting the primacy of conscience. Taking a single line from St. Thomas Aquinas out of context, these clowns teach that if your conscience tells you to do one thing and the Bible tells you to do another thing, you should follow your conscience. Furthermore, they also say that an action classically-defined by the Magisterium as sinful is not a sin as long as you can prove to yourself that you either had ignorance in your actions or no-malice in your heart. You might think I am exaggerating here, but I saw this error creeping into moral theology so intensely twenty years ago that [...]
p/c vladtepesblog.com Mr. Yuri Bezmenov was a KGB-defector from the USSR who came to the Western Hemisphere in the 1970s. Yuri once explained how ideological subversion always has to precede the Marxist physical revolution. He insisted that America had already undergone a communist moral revolution by the early 1980s. In that speech, Yuri said the goal for Communists upon America (even before any physical invasion) was "to change the perception of reality, of every American to such an extent that, despite the the abundance of information, no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community and their country. It's a [...]
-By Fr. David Nix - Suscipe prayer by St. Ignatius of Loyola: “Take, Lord, receive all my liberty, my memory, my understanding, and my entire will. All I have and call my own, You have given all to me. To You, Lord, I return it. Everything is Yours: do with it what You will. Give me only Your love and Your grace, that is enough for me.” - Exam of conscience: https://www.padreperegrino.org/2019/08/mortalsins/ - VLX on Ignatian mental prayer full-playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjsxYSk9VlHeHzwbngRWkjUR7bCU5JcS9 -St. Ignatius’ Rules For Discernment (Literal Translation): https://www.padreperegrino.org/2025/06/literalrules/
I snapped the above picture in Cairo, Egypt last year. To the left is a Coptic Orthodox Church and to the left is a fabric store with writing in Arabic. I was on a reconnaissance mission to figure out what it would take Muslims to become Christian and what it would take to get non-Catholic Christians to become Catholic. My findings were reflected in some recent secular studies: The Pew Research Center recently reported: "Christians remained the world’s biggest religious group. But Christians (of all denominations, counted as one group) did not keep pace with global population growth from 2010 to 2020. The number of Christians rose by 122 million, [...]
Last year, I reproduced St. Ignatius’ Rules For Discernment (Dynamic Translation.) Today, I reproduce a literal translation for use with my new podcast series called Peregrino Ignatian Paths on the Rules of Discernment and Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola. We will be using both translations, but primarily the following. St. Ignatius writes: The soul is moved by diverse spirits, which it is important to discern, in order to follow the good and repel the bad. The following are some rules, of which the first are suited to souls less perfect and the others to those who are more so. 1. Let us suppose a soul that easily falls [...]

The above is a picture of what my chest looks like when I do exorcism prayers and sidewalk counseling at the third largest abortion center in the world. At the top is a Go-Pro to record all interactions (except talking to abortion-minded women.) I record all interactions not because I am afraid that I will do something illegal, but rather that the pro-aborts will harm my pro-life team. (If they're willing to kill babies, they're willing to kill adults.) So, the Go-Pro is essentially a body-cam for my time at the abortion center. In the feature image above, you can see below the Go-Pro is the top of the starburst [...]
Most American Catholics do not know the definition of a heretic. However, a smaller percentage of mainstream Catholics who have studied a little theology might know that Catholics used to call Protestants "heretics," whereas they now prefer the term "separated brethren." An even smaller percentage of Catholics, namely traditionalists, still prefer to label Protestants as "heretics" (as well they should.) However, most traditional Catholics today are hesitant to grant the moniker "heretic" to anyone in the clergy without a formal canonical trial. Why are they so free with the first group and hesitant with the second group? They are afraid that an obvious heretic in the hierarchy as such undermines [...]
Between WWI and WWII, Germans proudly sang their patriotic anthem Die Wacht am Rhein translated as "The Watch on the Rhine." It contains the famous line, Lieb Vaterland, magst ruhig sein (seen in picture above) meaning "Dear Fatherland, be at peace." That is, Germans believed that despite the loss of WWI, they could find the right captain to lead them to peace and victory. Everything was going to be fine... at all costs. Alhough there is much debate to this day on how many Germans actually believed Hitler's initial threats to the Jews, the fact is that it didn't matter to most German gentiles. They were ready for a win, [...]
