From Joseph DeHarbe's A Full Cathechism of the Catholic Religion: Awful events, which make nature shudder, remain as yet to be related. We would fain pass them over in silence, if they were not most instructive for us. As with all human productions, so it fared with the doctrine of Luther; it became antiquated, it …
Déjà vu all Over Again with Ralph Martin
He's done another video in the wake of the "unearthing" of Michael Scanlan's prophecies: https://youtu.be/bOcLUeEOvD0 Let's be honest, Ralph: we've been here before. And you dodged the serious question that never seems to change. Back in 1982 you wrote a book entitled A Crisis of Truth, where you documented the drift from both Biblical truth …
Another Scanlan Prophecy, and How Did Ralph Martin Get to #straightouttairondale?
Ralph Martin has posted a follow-up to his broadcast of Michael Scanlan's prophecy: https://youtu.be/-R2b_45nBJI There's a lot to unpack here. First, much of what he says is fine. One of the things I've tried to do is to discourage people from leaning too hard on the benefits of the civilisation (such as it is.) The …

Michael Scanlan’s Amazing Prophecy
I've been puzzled about the spike this week in the stats for this post about Michael Scanlan and the University of Steubenville. A friend of mine put me on to an email blast from Ralph Martin; a video version of this is below: https://youtu.be/2XnxThW3wq0 My response to this was as follows: Now I understand the …
The Relationship Between the Giving of the Law and Pentecost
A neglected topic taken up by Bossuet in his Elevations on the Mysteries: When God wanted to give Moses the law on Mount Sinai, we read four important things. He descended to the sound of thunder and trumpets. The whole mountain seemed on fire, and one could see a flame break out in a cloud …

Modelling, Quantum Mechanics, and Theology
Recently I wrote a post for another of my blogs entitled Do We Need a New Math to Understand Physics? where I discussed yet another article I linked to, Does Time Really Flow? New Clues Come From a Century-Old Approach to Math. It's probably too technical for most readers of this blog, although seeing Tolkien …

Gavin Ashenden Goes #straightouttairondale
He's done it, in his interview with Kevin Turley of EWTN. https://youtu.be/nc3vA7TztXk When he took the Profession of Faith, I'm sure that Gavin thought he had crossed the river and "swam the Tiber." But when he was interviewed by EWTN, he went #straightouttairondale and crossed the Rubicon; from that there's really no turning back. An …

R.R. Reno Comes Out on the Short End of the Gas Attack
It was a vicious counter-attack, to be sure, and had the desired effect: I regret my foolish and ill-considered remarks about masks and mask wearing on Twitter on Tuesday, May 14. Masks are clearly indicated in many situations. I used over-heated rhetoric and false analogies. It was wrong for me to impugn the intentions and …

Laughter, – an antidote to fear, death and the human condition. — Gavin Ashenden
In a seedy hotel in Paris, Oscar Wilde lay on his death bed. His life had been a search for beauty and elegance. He had been a master of wit and adventure; until his life crashed. On his death bed, two things happened. He was received into the Roman Catholic Church and he made one …
