This Is War.

Andrew Dunn lays it out brilliantly.

I will say, I have my problems with “Catholic influencers”, “celebrity priests”, and specifically “celebrity exorcists”. But let’s not kid ourselves. This is the systematic elimination of ANYONE who is effectively teaching the Catholic faith as handed down from Our Lord to the Apostles and on to us. The synodal “church” is not Catholic. We are not the same faith. They are silencing Fr. Ripperger because he is teaching the faith and it’s not the same faith as theirs. To think otherwise is beyond naïveté.

We’ve moved from the realm of “let’s cautiously wait and see/there might be a good reason for this” scenario to the “they’re through dealing with actual Catholics” moment.

Go ahead, synodal church. Silence James Martin. I’ll wait.

They worship demons and tell you and me that we’re rigid. They “excommunicate” the SSPX and tell you and me that all are welcome. How many reading this post have learned a great deal about the Catholic faith from Father Ripperger that our “Catholic” schools hid from us?

I’m sick of it.

In Texas, we have a flag – the Gonzalez flag – featuring an image of a canon with the words “Come and take it.” It’s a simple command for those who dare to join the fight.

Come and take it – my priests, my faith, if you dare. But when you attack, know this. I will fight back. And here’s the fun part, homos. The Woman who crushes the evil serpent you worship is on my side. But obviously, it’s the other way around. I’m on her side, under her mantle, tepidly trying to approach the cross of the Son she bore and with whom she suffered for our salvation.

Shame on all of these wicked men for their pusillanimous actions and for being so ass-backward stupid they’d think we wouldn’t notice.

Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for your holy priest, Fr. Chad Ripperger!

This Flying Business…

It’s for the birds.

But at least I get to share pictures like this.

Wars and Runors of Wars… Anyway, Here’s a Pumpkin.

With all the insanity in the world at the moment, I thought I’d take a moment to announce that autumn has decided to visit North Texas for a few days. You know, in case you missed that in your feed.

She Came for Me

A friend just returned from Europe where he 1) got engaged and 2) visited Chartres. While there he picked something up for me.

That Didn’t Take Long

Can’t Make this Stuff Up

I have become mildly obsessed with watching these videos of AI job interviews. See below. The guys doing the trolling deserve a Pulitzer, in my opinion.

I’ve also begun to lean toward a theory that, in addition to rolling out a poison, the scam six years ago was intended to accustom folks to AI.

St. Teresa of Avila

A very happy feast to all my Carmelite friends, especially the persecuted!

I saw over on Barnhardt a repost of “Why Go to Mass” which included a quote from this magnificent woman.

Once, St. Teresa of Avila was overwhelmed with God’s Goodness and asked Our Lord: “How can I thank You?”  Our Lord replied, “ATTEND ONE MASS.”

There you have it. You heard the lady. Now go, do.

St. Teresa of Avila, pray for us!
