Monday Pile of Prep-The RNC Will Not Make America Safe again

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 -“If we want reform, we must adhere to orthodoxy: especially in this matter (so much disputed in the counsels of Mr. R.J.Campbell), the matter of insisting on the immanent or the transcendent deity. By insisting specially on the immanence of God we get introspection, self-isolation, quietism, social indifference—Tibet. By insisting specially on the transcendence of God we get wonder, curiosity, moral and political adventure, righteous indignation—Christendom. Insisting that God is inside man, man is always inside himself. By insisting that God transcends man, man has transcended himself.

If we take any other doctrine that has been called old-fashioned we shall find the case the same. It is the same, for instance, in the deep matter of the Trinity. Unitarians (a sect never to be mentioned without a special respect for their distinguished intellectual dignity and high intellectual honour) are often reformers by the accident that throws so many small sects into such an attitude. But there is nothing in the least liberal or akin to reform in the substitution of pure monotheism for the Trinity. The complex God of the Athanasian Creed may be an enigma for the intellect; but He is far less likely to gather the mystery and cruelty of a Sultan than the lonely god of Omar or Mahomet.” – Chesterton, Orthodoxy

When Cops Are Killed They leave Widows Behind, And The Widows Are Sick Of #BLM – Over at the amconmag.com site a woman who is a widower vents her frustration post- Baton Rouge cop slaying. Her intentions are honest and real:

“I keep reading this rhetoric about politics and guns and who to blame, and the truth is it is just that, rhetoric. No one has any plans to do anything to fix any of it. They just want to bitch and point fingers and protect their own interests. You know where I am on this right now? F–k them. F–k them and their rhetoric. Those questions are pointless, empty bulls–t. Let’s ask some real question and come up with some real answers.

If we look beyond the rhetoric, the real issue is men being strong leaders. The real issue is breakdown of family, of family values, of security, safety, respect. In 10 days we have lost eight leaders. Who is going to step in and fill those holes so those kids don’t grow up disconnected? We talk about being politically disenfranchised. F–k that. Let’s get to the real issue. The real issue is being emotionally disenfranchised. Who is going to help these kids find their way? Who is going to help these exhausted moms get up day after day and still have enough emotional and mental energy to be moms and not just the machine that makes money to keep roof over their head and food in their mouths.

Being a parent is so much more than financially providing. We live in utter chaos because parents have quit providing emotionally and mentally. Look at any of these shooters. Show me one that is really connected and has strong mental and emotional support and connections. You won’t find one, so it seems to me if we want to heal our communities, we need to step up and support the moms who are going one hell of a hard road alone. We need to be the surrogate parents. Who is going to do that? THAT is what we need to be talking about. We need to be talking about how society as a whole is failing.”

This society wide problem she identifies is a self inflicted wound brought on by the pride of do-it-yourself-catechism whose rotten fruit is the bastard epidemic plaguing ‘Muricah. Only a humiliating, civilization correction that features a return to the natural and moral law of the ages of Faith will provide a remedy.

Newt Wants To Ban Sharia But Cannot Bring Himself To Identify Its Replacement – the Judgement Pornosphere™ is all abuzz this morning with the playing of Newt Gingrich’s televised hissy fit over Sharia Law practitioners being hunted down and deported, which I concur with because I reject religious pluralism. BUT, if you’re going to exclude Sharia Muslims, why not re-consecrate civilization to its anti-venom? The Magisterial teaching of Christ as practiced during the last millennial-long struggle against Sharia?

DeceptiCONNED: GOP Day 1 “Make ‘Muricah Safe Again” – The day by day themes for the RNC are going to be a hoot to comment on beginning with “Make America Safe Again”, tonight’s theme. I don’t know what is scarier, the prospect that a political party actually has enough power to make this promise and carry it into fruition or  brain-dead masses that actually think this is something worthy of their backing? Oh, but don’t go in public and mention placing the U.S. governments under the loving, watchful care of Christ because that’s a liberty sucking “theocracy”.

Last Atheist Tango In Paris? – The French President Hollande is either a. delusional, b.ignorant or c. a combination of the 2 for failing to identify the smoldering fires of Islam that are burning across his country’s metropolitan centers. Hollande issued the following to explain the latest act of Muslim orthodoxy in Nice: “Why Nice? Because Nice is one of the most beautiful cities on the planet. Why the 14 of July? Because it is a celebration of liberty, and to harm France, this is why this individual committed this terrorist attack.” The sickness that has possessed the French since their “revolution” of 1787 is now producing its final, rotten fruits.

Divide And Conquer Has Been Mammon’s Plan All Along, Now “White Christian ‘Muricah” Is Assisting – I briefly mentioned the Robert Jones piece in the Atlantic Magazine yesterday covering the decline of “White Christian America”. Rod Dreher correctly concludes that Jones’s fixation on the color of the Christians in question is a non sequitir to orthodox Christians. This decline is the reason I have become dedicated to A. The Louisiana Independence Party and B. A Free, Independent, Catholic [r]epublic to come from that independence. But Jones concludes that it is a white problem thus confusing the children of God with numbers reflected in demographics. But men are not identified by God as blacks or whites or Greeks or Jews or Gentiles but as custodians of souls responsible for their care. As Pope Leo XIII stated In Plurimis: “Thus, the Apostles, in the early days of the Church, among other precepts for a devout life taught and laid down the doctrine which more than once occurs in the Epistles of St. Paul addressed to those newly baptized: “For you are all the children of God by faith, in Jesus Christ. For as many of you as have been baptized in Christ, have put on Christ. There is neither Jew, nor Greek; there is neither bond, nor free; there is neither male nor female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus.” “Where there is neither Gentile nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, barbarian nor Scythian, bond nor free. But Christ is all and in all.”

All The “Townhalls” On Earth Won’t Fix Fatherless Children – A letter writer to the American Conservative Magazine muses about the super-abundance of duty transfer that spoiled rotten, petulant ‘Muricans are heaping upon two institutions: cops and teachers. Why? Because over 50% of all children born today are born as bastards. That is the situation the cops are asked to step into and fill the breach. Where’s P Diddy et al to pick up the slack?: “All of these issues are intertwined. The lack of community creates a dearth of social support structures that we used to be able to depend on, so people start leaning on institutions that were never meant to provide that type of support, and those institutions bend and creak and eventually will break because of it.”

This Is What An American Backed Carpet Bombing Looks Like & You Think We’re A Christian Nation Still!? – I continue to stand in solidarity with AmConMag’s Daniel Larison and in this instance, Human Rights Watch and the U.N. to denounce and demand that the U.S. government CEASE ALL AIDF TO SAUDI ARABIA. The House of Saud is responsible for diabolical war-crimes STILL being committed in Yemn with American intel, American weaponry and fungible America cash. Look at the picture, brothers and sisters, read the story and understand that the people of Yemen are NON-COMBATANT CIVILIANS suffering an inconceivable, lethal pestilence they are powerless and defenseless to repel. Larison: “Long after the fighting stops in Yemen, the people of Yemen will be left with wrecked infrastructure and a devastated economy because of the bombing campaign that HRW and other human rights organizations have been criticizing for over a year. Yemen was already the poorest Arab country, and now its development has been set back by decades. Beyond the immediate loss of life and destruction of property caused by the intervention, the Saudi-led, U.S.-backed war on Yemen is inflicting enormous harm…”

It’s July And The Immodesty Is About To Go Nuclear Because It WENT Nuclear – Venerable Bishop Sheen called out ‘Muricah back in the 1960’s while speaking to a group of young Catholics on “Youth and Sex”: “8:15 in the morning, the 6th of August, 1945, when we flew a military plane over this city, when we dropped that atomic bomb on it; that bomb on blotted out boundaries. There was no longer a boundary between the military and the civilian, between the helper and the helped, between the wounded and the nurse and the doctor, between the living and the dead. For even the living who escaped the bomb were already half dead. So we broke down boundaries and limits and from that time on the world has said we want no one limiting me. … You want no restraint, no boundaries, no limitsI have to do what I want to do. Now let’s analyze that for a moment, is that happiness?”

The Tragedy of Post Christian, Philosophia Perennis Devoid Thinking – Read this piece from AmConMag writer Noah Millman to get a closeup view of why Philosophia Perennis is so desperately needed to corral the erroneous thinking Men are sure to engage in when NOT grounded in the eternal quest for True Wisdom i.s. Sapientia. The issue Noah, is not whether “only the Saints” can live by the Magisterial code, it is that by God’s Grace the Saints DID live the Tradition WHILE receiving the Graces needed to do so. You cannot approach Grace as zero sum, mathematics, as in if I do ______ I will receive ______ “Grace credits” but if I do ______I will have deducted ______ Grace Credits. Grace is present in the world and we are given the supply needed at Baptism, the suffering of the Christian Faithful is simply to maintain the state you enter at Baptism, using the Gospels and the Traditional Teaching as MEANS to that END. As Padré Gaetano tells us in Humility of Heart: “And has not a saint abundant reasons, from the thought of his own weakness, to live always in a state of great humility, when he knows that from one hour to another he may lose the grace of God and the kingdom of heaven which he has merited by years of laboriously-acquired virtues? “Unless the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it.”
