In my last article, Fatima, Darwin and Dogma, we looked at how Darwinian evolution erroneously led most Catholics of the 20th century to believe dogma could evolve like a species.  We saw how this was no small part of Mary's dreaded "errors of Russia."  So also, if dogma can change overnight, then the liturgy can morph overnight, too.  (Of course, we know that the Bible and the Magisterium make it clear that neither a species nor Divine Revelation can evolve.  But one false premise, namely, Darwinian Evolution, can strangely affect even the Holy Mass.) Let's ask an important question:  Is tradition a living thing?  This is a tricky question.  If [...]

I only recently learned about him by watching Hugh Owen's Foundations Restored, a Catholic production unveiling the lies of Darwinian Evolution in favor of Biblical creation.

Happy Sunday, Padre! I have questions. Souls don't exist before our bodies, right? At conception, is when God first creates the soul and joins it to the body. Right? That's when we first 'began' but the soul has no end. I don't fully understand [...]
