Homosexuality in the seminaries.

Church Militant recently received an email from a parishioner who had confronted a priest about the church closings in the diocese. The email we received was the response from the priest to the parishioner, which the parishioner passed on to us.

So as not to cause an unnecessary headache for the parishioner, we'll keep things nonspecific. And, likewise, it doesn't really matter where this took place because this situation applies across the entire country.

The priest (who was ticked off at Church Militant, like many of them are) was complaining that we talk about the collapse of the Church and the resultant parish closures. His response to the parishioner was, "Well, what would you have the bishop do? In a few years, this archdiocese will have only one non-retired priest to serve over 100 parishes unless we close a huge number of them now. Priests will have to be kept on past retirement to serve these parishes."

While all of that may be true, there's a measure of justice in this situation. For decades, bishops lied to the faithful and still continue to in spades. They have allowed sacrilege to rule the day. And it's important to note that they didn't just become a bishop and start doing this. They were doing it all along in their priesthood. In fact, you could make the case that they became a bishop because they were so good at not teaching the Faith.

Cowards respond out of fear, not love or faith.

If you've followed Church Militant or the Vortex for any length of time, you'll know that we have said often that it is obvious many members of the hierarchy, as well as their pet clergy, have no supernatural faith. Faith is the supernatural virtue that instills and upholds supernatural hope, which leads to the supernatural virtue of charity.

All are infused at the moment of baptism, but each — or all — may be lost. When a person loses supernatural faith, it's lights out. If you don't believe, you won't have hope, and without hope, you will not act out of an abundance of supernatural charity.

This is why St. Paul points to these three supernatural virtues as being key: "In the end, three things abideth — faith, hope and charity. And the greatest of these is charity."

It is possible, at least to a degree, to perceive people's degree of faith by looking at their degree of charity. In short, how much do they love? How much are their actions inspired by love of God and neighbor? If you aren't seeing that because it doesn't appear to be present, then there is a problem at the root of their faith — their supernatural faith.

Truth vs. anti-truth.

Following on from yesterday's Vortex about this apostolate's 15-year anniversary and how things have evolved here, I have some thoughts to share.

The Faith is not preached in a vacuum. The souls that truth is brought to are not neutral, and they do not live in a neutral world. The world, as Our Blessed Lord described it Himself, is the enemy of truth and it will hate us who try to live by and preach the truth because it hated Him first — He who is Truth.

So that is the basic foundation on which we have to begin any effort at evangelization — not any kind of pie-in-the-sky, romanticized-monks-preaching-to-the-barbarians-and-them-all-being-baptized kind of image.

First, that effort took centuries and many of the monks and preachers were martyred or, at the bare minimum, suffered tremendously at the hands of the world. It comes with the territory. Each age has brought new challenges to each epoch of the Church — things that, while in principle are the same, are realized in the day-to-day quite differently.

A thousand or so years later, here we are: the 21st-century Church living an experience not only never lived out before in the life of the Church (or the world, for that matter), but with absolutely zero precedent.

This has been centuries in the making, originating with the evils in the hierarchy which brought about the Protestant revolt. The theological revolution, ultimately undermining the very notion of authority itself, brought about philosophical and political revolution.

The Vortex — Comfortable Catholicism

The ruin of the Church.

The founder of Gab, Andrew Torba (a really good guy and astute observer of the culture), has noted that a major contributing factor to the decay of the culture is what he terms "comfortable Christianity." It's a good point. The essence of it is that many adherents of Christianity have simply become comfortable — too comfortable — and allowed the culture to decay. Agreed.

But let's shift this analysis to the Catholic world and take a deep dive into the arena of "comfortable Catholicism." Too many of the moneyed class, the establishment class, the university class and the media class of Catholics have simply grown comfortable in their establishment acceptance. But the real danger is that they don't really accomplish anything near what they tell themselves they do.

Take, for example, the faculty at "conservative" Catholic universities. Do they accomplish some good? Sure — but anywhere near as much as they think they do? Not a prayer. Why? Because it's one thing to stand in front of a classroom full of young minds and light up their intellects with Aquinas and philosophy and so forth. It's an entirely different thing to send them out into a Church whose hierarchy is corrupt doctrinally, financially, morally and liturgically.

And what's worse — because it's nearly impossible to be a faculty member at a Catholic university and not become ensconced in the establishment — is that you never really talk about it with your students. Heck, many are so ensconced in it, they don't even know it or will admit it. It's either naivete or a deliberate unwillingness to rock the boat so as not to disturb their comfort.

Fighting the good fight.

When you cover all sorts of news and events from the point of view of authentic Catholicism (like we do here at Church Militant), a number of things jump out at you — patterns and trends, for example.

Every single day, we are amazed at the number of times we encounter Catholics in public life, for good or for bad (mostly for bad). It never ceases to amaze us just how many people in the political world are Catholic. The list is a little overwhelming. Not a night goes by, for example, on our Church Militant Evening News where we don't say, "Catholic such and such," or "so and so, who's Catholic."

There are the obvious ones of course — Biden, Pelosi, Kerry, etc. — and then the big second-tier names like Cuomo of New York, Chris Christie and that whole gang. There are also other big names who are less known as Catholics, like Ron DeSantis of Florida, Doug Ducey of Arizona, Gavin Newsom of California and Xavier Becerra (HHS director under Biden), to name just a few.

Colonel Sanders had less chicken.

We're going to do a follow-up in this Vortex to one we aired a couple of weeks ago about a prominent parish here in Detroit, the National Shrine of the Little Flower, and most specifically, its schools.

As a quick refresher, a big LGBTQIA+ issue broke out there when some parents complained about a long-term teacher having put up a poster of Harvey Milk in her classroom. Harvey Milk has become an icon in the homosexual community because he (along with Mayor George Moscone) was gunned down by Dan White while serving on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors.

White did not assassinate Milk or Moscone over anything homosexual, despite the fact that a homosexual newspaper reporter for the San Francisco Chronicle, Randy Shilts, made a gay martyr out of Milk. Shilts later died of AIDS in 1994.

As Shilts noted in his biography of Milk, Milk had a penchant, shall we say, for taking homeless teenage males off the streets and into his bed. So why a poster of Milk is up in any Catholic school classroom is a source of wonder.

Catholic 'elites' are better than you.

When Church Militant broke the story a few weeks ago about a Dallas, Texas parish, Holy Trinity, calling the cops on a pregnant young mother to have her arrested for not wearing a mask, outrage against Bp. Edward Burns exploded on social media.

Burns was one of the very first bishops in Texas to rush to microphones and publish statements that, even though Gov. Greg Abbott had lifted the mask mandate for the state, parishes in his diocese would still require them. Liberal clergy were delighted because his statement gave them permission to continue being tyrants and push the COVID fear, even when nothing was even remotely close to being dangerous (as in the case of the young pregnant mother with her 1-year-old, sitting alone in the back of the church, far away from any other person).

When the homosexual-friendly priest called the police to have her arrested, she explained that she was experiencing morning sickness and the mask was exacerbating that. So she didn't put it on but deliberately distanced herself from anyone else.

More bishop COVID tyranny.

As the COVID so-called vaccine (which is not a vaccine) continues to get rolled out, some very definite patterns are emerging. The more politically conservative you are, the less likely you are to get it. The more theologically conservative you are, the less likely you are to get it.

There are a few reasons for these patterns but the overriding one is this: trust. If you are theologically or politically conservative, you are much more likely to simply no longer trust authority — and with good reason. Secular and religious authorities have flat-out betrayed our trust for decades and sold the Church and the country down the river.

So being forced through social pressure — and even some political pressure — to have to take a shot you don't trust morally or scientifically, rubs the wrong way — a lot.

However, in the Church, there is another dimension to this. Fr. James Altman, for example, is earning the scorn of the religious and social establishment for calling out the bishops as cowards in how they have dealt with this whole Wuhan-flu madness.
