Mandeville, LA – Today’s Pile of Prep: most of the stories and research used to put together the Mike Church Show on the Veritas Radio Network’s CRUSADE Channel. 2016 is here and WELCOME to the All-New, Mike Church Show on the CRUSADE Channel, listen LIVE for Free (don’t cost nuthin’).

Sapientia et Veritas – “I am no friend of picketing, and I thoroughly dislike this kind of demonstration. But when so grave a question as the souls of our children is at stake, then demonstrations are legitimate and even necessary. We must ceaselessly inundate the bishops with protests, so that if – which, may God forbid! – we do not succeed in opening their eyes to the abomination of sex education, they will at least yield to the pressure exerted by truly Catholic parents. I mean those parents who are the glory and strength of the Church, who believes firmly the Credo of Pope Paul VI, who believe in the infallibility of the Church in matters of faith and morals, and who, unlike the small but noisy group of avant-gardists, accept obediently and lovingly the teaching of Humanae Vitae. It is these quiet millions whose parental rights are being usurped. It is their children whose souls are endangered.” – Deitrich von Hildebrand, The Basic Issues

DeceptiCONNED – Colorado Republicans Smoke Their Legal Dope & Choose Ineligible Cruz – The remarkable lack of integrity that oozes from the GOP has reached new, despicable highs with the Colorado GOP awarding Ineligible Ted Cruz ALL its delegates despite the fact that the state had no caucus or primary. The “conservative” infatuation with Cruz, a natural born citizen of either Canada or Cuba, illuminates the rudderless state of “conservatism”, thus the term “remnant” rises.

The Tragedy That Is Coming Via The Church – The faithful need to buck up, pray up and get engaged in the PRACTICE of The Faith in the wake of the moral bombshell of Pope Francis’s Amoris Latatia, Apostolic Exhortation. Brothers and sisters, the stakes don’t get any higher or more crucially important than this. Francis has opened wide the gates of confusion in the most morally confused epoch in world history. If you don’t see the danger the Holy See has welcomed, Antonio Socci explains it: “Bergoglio avoids talking about “the moral law”, which the Church has condensed for centuries in dogmas and canonical dispositions, or he depicts it contemptuously as something “abstract” which cannot be applied to “concrete” situations. In doing so, he arrives at contesting Jesus Himself in His clash with the Pharisees on the question of divorce (Mat. 19, 3-12). In fact Bergoglio asserts that: “a far too abstract and almost artificial theological ideal of marriage, far removed from the concrete situations and practical possibilities of real families” must not be proposed. This would be “excessive idealization”. Even worse: “there is no need to lay upon two limited persons the tremendous burden of having to reproduce perfectly the union existing between Christ and His Church”. In compensation, Bergoglio introduces new grave sins. Those of the so-called “rigorists”, guilty of remembering God’s law, but most of all, those [of individuals] who don’t share his political ideas on social questions.”

The Death of A Culture Has Begun, Read All About It! – Phillip Reif accurately portrayed the cultural meltdown back in 2008, noting that when the Institutions that have MADE the culture begin to become irrelevant as a result of their denial of their own doctrines, the civilizational game is over.“The death of a culture begins when its normative institutions fail to communicate ideals in ways that remain inwardly compelling, first of all to the cultural elites themselves. Many spokesmen for our established normative institutions are aware of their failure and yet remain powerless to generate in themselves the necessary unwitting part of their culture that merits the name of faith. “Is not the very fact that so wretchedly little binding address is heard in the church,” asked Karl Barth, rhetorically, in 1939, “accountable for a goodly share of her misery—is it not perhaps the misery?” The misery of this culture is acutely stated by the special misery of its normative institutions. Our more general misery is that, having broken with those institutionalized credibilities from which its moral energy derived, new credibilities are not yet operationally effective and, perhaps, cannot become so in a culture constantly probing its own unwitting part.”

DeceptiCONNED – Donald Trump says the only common sensical thing one can say about the Leviathan monster’s $19 TRILLION debt: have a sale ofall “Federal” assets and use the proceeds to pay down the debt. The reaction from the CruZombies is predictable “yeah, yeah, that’ll never work and besides we can’t sell off precious federal assets, we need them to conduct Teddy’s experiment and determine if sand glows.” The imbecilic reaction from the anarcho-pagans is, the Feds only have $3.2

DeceptiCONNED II – Senator Tom Coburn made some attempt to do what Trumopzilla has proposed but could not move a bill to sell a measley $15 BILLION in unused, dust-collecting “federal” real-estate. In “How Congress Snatched The Power To Own Lands” I made a compelling and history based case that the Federal Leviathan should NOT claim the power to own and manage ANY lands beyond “Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards and other needful buildings”

Papa Sonstray Island Isn’t Far Enough Away From The Diabolical Hillary Clinton – The reasoning behind my threat to leave the USA and move to Papa Sonstray Island has now come into full view with her wicked, diabolical exhortation (to loud CHEERS!!!) that a human child can be aborted hours before it is born and has “no constitutional rights”. Watch the video for your self or listen to the embedded audio file and conform your mind to this reality: if this maniac attains the Presidency, the United States will implement population control and babies will become targets because the Holy American State cannot afford them. Mark my words, folks and do not put this past the Clintons and Gates, eugenics and population control are the grisly hobbies of our ruling elite.

The Pope Affirms That “Love Is A Battlefield” – There will be much, much talk about Amoris Lætatæ, the Pope’s exhortation on the Family and Marriage. Cardinal Brandmüeller pre-empts His Holiness with an Apostolic Reminder that the infallible teaching of Holy Mother Church CANNOT be altered, watered down or undermined. I talk about this every day and will continue to update the subject as Amoris is translated and better understood…

The Pope Makes Moral Teaching A Sponge Instead of A Rock – Digging into Amoris Lætatæ we find what faithful Catholics have feared: Pope Francis has swung wide open the door to normalizing homosexuality and divorce. One Peter Five is first to the rampart to explain what this means to tens of millions of Souls: “What this means concretely is that the pope is sending a deeply troubling message: those who are living in the objective state of adultery (since they are still sacramentally and validly married to their real spouse, not the person they are living with) and have children from this second “marriage” are essentially bound to stay in this relationship, living as husband and wife (which they are not) and continuing to engage in acts proper only to spouses, and thus, adulterous in nature. Otherwise, the pope reasons, their new relationship – and the welfare of the children involved – could be put at risk! In this, Pope Francis undermines Catholic moral teaching at its core, and puts supposed practical concerns over the higher concern of the salvation of souls.”

It Takes a Village – Is it really far-fetched to think that Rod Dreher’s “Benedict Option” might be implemented sans the Hadrian’s Wall replica, in a village somewhere? Well, we’d have to move to England (I’m cool with that are you?) but this village is available for sale, when do we move in!? Seriously, the idea of people sharing a similar view of what kind of culture they wish their children to be marinated in; what structure of governmental authority they wish to live under; what system of law enforcement would be best to effect their happiness and enforce the government’s prime directive: to remove impediments from saving one’s souls. This idea just happens to be quite American in character and we have this on the good authority of Thomas Jefferson himself. “Were I to assign to this term a precise and definite idea, I would say, purely and simply, it means a government by its citizens in mass, acting directly and personally, according to rules established by the majority; and that every other government is more or less republican, in proportion as it has in its composition more or less of this ingredient of the direct action of the citizens. Such a government is evidently restrained to very narrow limits of space and population. I doubt if it would be practicable beyond the extent of a New England township.”

In Village Veritas, No One Will Mistake Dominican’s For KKKlan Members – To demonstrate just how far away from the path that Christendom’s Tradition beat for us witness our kids, happy and hooking up at the University of Indiana, mistaking a Dominican Priest, walking the campus while praying the Holy Rosary, for a member of the KKKlan with a whip in hand, seeking minorities to beat into Jim Crowe submission. “So what happened tonight goes like this: a person saw white robes and what looked to them like a weapon, got scared (rightfully so), warned people, warned staff, which in turn caused me to warn my residents because I need to look out for my residents, which in turn made it spread. Then my residents, terrified, come running to me, saying yeah the report must be true, they saw him and couldn‘t believe there was a klansmember with a whip. And I see this picture. It’s a priest. With a rosary.” Use this story as Exhibit A-ZZZ as to why the continent’s moral slide cannot be arrested by laws, elections, ballots or “Making America Great Again” but only by returning to these same poor, misguided yewts, to a Scholastic regimen to BEGIN their education and supporting them with a restoration of The Church Militant as the fount and guard of the moral law.

All Hail The Sole Honest Man In Congress: Rep Thomas Massie – Massie tells NPR what CRUSADE Channel listeners already knew: the two gang system holds the $4 Trillion federal buffet hostage to the wishes of the real bosses in our democracy, those who get slices of the grift Congress has stolen and or borrowed. “Powerful committee chairmanships can cost millions of dollars, Massie said. Massie sits on three House committees: Oversight and Reform, Transportation and Infrastructure, and Science, Space and Technology. “I’ve paid them zero,” Massie said, which yielded a scattered applause at the pizza parlor. “It looks like a phone bill they send to me. An overdue notice.” He said the bill has a footnote reading, “Note: price is subject to change based on your leadership positions.”

DeceptiCONNED & Incorporationista’d– Idaho Governor Butch Otter has signed a bill that basically forfeits the Idaho Constitution and its sole prerogative to regulate weapons including guns in the state to the Feds. Claiming that Idaho is now 2nd Amendment compliant, the ID legislature has  completely surrendered their sovereignty. Otter even bragged that he is a lifelong NRA member and thus a “second amendment” believer. I have previously discussed this subject, 15,000 ways to Sunday, the second Amendment is NOT universal unless your state’s militia has been called “into the service of the United States”. Please download or purchase a copy of my docudrama on this subject from Patrick Henry’s point of view: The Spirit of ’76-The Story Continues.

I am Woman, Hear Me Roar [in childbirth] – Lumma Sims pens an essay that not many Olive Gardenian women are going to warm to: the ‘Murican Dream for women needs to be put back into its proper perspective: “The American Dream is a call to create a society with the space to pursue what in history was known as God’s cultural mandate to male and female alike: “be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it.” The laws of nature and of nature’s God call humanity to work hard, to strive for the basic goods (e.g., the transcendent/God, knowledge, life/health, friendship, etc.) with excellence, and to pursue what Aristotle called Eudaimonia—flourishing by practicing virtue—the happiness of friendship with God.” Wow, just wow, read the entire essay and may a small spark of hope be ignited in your Remnant souls.
