How such a thing could have ever happened is almost beyond comprehension. On Halloween, a music video dropped by the pop star Sabrina Carpenter, another Miley Cyrus in that she is also a Disney children’s entertainer turned hyper-sexualized singer. The video features Carpenter in various provocative states of dress (if you can call that “dressed”)…
I have not written on matters of faith in a long time. “Why?” I’m sure no one has asked. I will inflict an answer upon you regardless. It’s simple. I’ve been undergoing a spiritual transformation. I have received a re-catechization and am now awakened. No longer burdened by traditional ideologies, I am forever changed, and…
One of the lies of Liberalism and Marxism is a prideful faith in man’s power of central planning. The idea that if we just create a system, a huge bureaucracy, we can pull all the strings to make that planned utopia come about. His Holiness, “the Dictator Pope” and his Vatican regime of Iconoclasm have…
Just when you thought (and hoped) that Pope Francis was finished remaking the Church, more news breaks to show he’s not slowing down. This time, as reported by respected Vatican journalist Diane Montagna for The Remnant, the pope is considering radically changing how future popes are elected.

Vienna is undoubtedly among the most beautiful cities of the world. It is a city adorned with some of the finest art and architecture. The imperial palaces, Gothic cathedral, and numerous Baroque churches leave an impression on everyone who has the opportunity to walk her streets.

Knowing next to nothing about either animal, they wonder if I’m making a…
Putting ourselves in contact with beauty is eminently important in order to cultivate wonder and the spiritual sense. We were created for beauty and have a need to experience it—otherwise our souls will atrophy. In Genesis, God puts man in a place of beauty, the “garden of delights,” replete with plants and animals. Seeing that…
We would have had a first selection from Philippians last week, the last Sunday of October, but the 22nd Sunday after Pentecost was superseded by the Feast of Christ the King in the Vetus calendar. Sunday’s reading from Philippians 3:17-21 and 4:1-3 is also used in the Vetus calendar on the Feast of St. Clement…
It is a curious thing being a millennial. I was born in 1988, and I find my generation to be a curious generation. We are, generally speaking, just old enough to have learned the old ways, or at least the ways that are not completely modern. I recall being raised at a time when wearing…
The majority of people would probably answer the question posed in the headline with a “No.” And ordinarily, I would go along with that majority. But I think this year God may have used the 2023 World Series to make a point. Of all 30 teams in Major League Baseball, only the Texas Rangers did…
