  • Episode 220

    There are 19-23 bishops that will begin a process this year to close anywhere from 60% to 90% of the parishes in their dioceses, so you can kiss these parishes goodbye. The guest on this week’s episode is a lawyer in an archdiocese who’s actively fighting these tyrannical episcopal processes now. You really need to hear this because this tyranny will be visiting you soon.

    This episode is a tribute to President Ronald Reagan for what would have been his 112th birthday. I strongly urge you to listen to what a real president sounds like.

    This episode is all Reagan. This week we won’t have The Sacred Heart Wins! with Bishop Strickland, the Catholic Bootcamp, Catholic Quotes, or a Catholic Story. Since more than 60% of you Sixpack Warriors are under forty, you really need to hear this. For you older Sixpack Warriors, you’ll really enjoy this walk down memory lane with Dutch Reagan.

    The Sacred Heart Wins! with Bishop Joseph Strickland Peter asks, “A Jesuit priest (Fr. John Whitney) residing in San Francisco, wrote an article for America Magazine. He accused Archbishop Cordileone of ‘abusing the sacrament’ by withholding it ‘without process or appeal.’ He refrains from using the name, but despite the slyness, we know he meant Pelosi. Should the bishop accept this public rebuke, or discipline the priest for clouding a clear issue and contributing (like Pelosi) to scandal and confusion?”David asks, “Instead of spending millions of dollars on Eucharistic revival, why isn’t the weekly pulpit used for this purpose. I mean, you’ve got a captive audience. Spending money on Congress’s solution. Sometimes I fear too many of our Bishops have become politicians.”Mary asks, “Is it true that a bishop can force a priest from using Latin in the Novus Ordo?”Deborah asks, “What do you know about Luisa Piccaretta and Living in the DIVINE WILL?”

    All ten of the statements I’ll read to you aren’t from the Democrat Party platform, but rather from the various satanic religions and their adherents. Groups such as the Church of Satan and the Satanic Temple made the ten statements I’ll read, and many of them were made before the Democrat Party ever embraced these ideologies.
