Veritas et Sapientia – The “Enlightenment” Is A Parasite That Won’t Outlive Its Host

Mandeville, LA - There is a recurring theme on my radio show about the parasite class that the "enlightenment" has created. This class produces poverty, war and lust as sicknesses disguised as ecstasies. To keep the perversions from appearing to be the destructive forces they are, religion has been corrupted to embrace and propagate the disease. Indeed, the Catholic Church is nearly completely co-opted in this scheme whose author is […]

Veritas et Sapientia – The U.S. Constitution, Conceived In Paganism

Mandeville, LA - When I took my seat in the Convention, I found them attempting to bring forward a system which, I was sure, never had entered into the contemplation of those I had the honor to represent, and which, upon the fullest consideration, I considered not only injurious to the interest and rights of this state, but also incompatible with the political happiness and freedom of the states in general.

Veritas et Sapientia – There Is no Left Or Right Because All Power Goes To 1 Place: Mordor

Mandeville, LA - By the early twenty-first century, Americans had become accustomed to, even took for granted, virtually everything against which George Washington and Thomas Jefferson had warned: gigantic public and private debt, a massive national government, entangling foreign alliances, a standing army, undeclared war in the form of military interventionism, the destruction of American agrarianism, and the list goes on. Ascension to national legislative, executive, and judicial hegemony of Democrats […]

Veritas et Sapientia – All Saints Day Belongs To The Humble

Mandeville, LA - "In Paradise there are many Saints who never gave alms on earth: their poverty justified them. There are many Saints who never mortified their bodies by fasting, or wearing hair shirts: their bodily infirmities excused them. There are many Saints too who were not virgins: their vocation was otherwise. But in Paradise there is no Saint who was not humble. God banished angels from heaven for their pride; […]

Veritas et Sapientia-Halloween & Luther’s Revolt: All Tricks And No Treats

Mandeville, LA - "A real change however came with the Protestant revolt. Although, at this — one might almost say — sociological level, the alteration was not that great in Anglican or Lutheran regions (where rejection of the Catholic Liturgical heritage was similarly ambiguous), it tended to be in Calvinist areas. There, there was little question: whether in worship or calendar customs or folk beliefs, if it was not explicitly […]

Veritas et Sapientia – You Can’t Solve “Christianity’s Problems” Because There’s No Such Thing

Mandeville, LA - "To many who have no sympathy with Catholicism, who inherit the old Protestant animosity to the Church (although doctrinal Protestantism is now dead) and who think that any attack on the Church must somehow or other be a good thing, the struggle already appears as a coming or present attack on what they call "Christianity." You will find people saying on every side that the Bolshevist movement […]

Veritas et Sapientia – Jefferson’s American Union Died In 1861, We’ve Gone ‘Muricah Ever Since

Mandeville, LA - [Editor's Note: Melvin E. Bradford was a titan in the stand made against Leo Strauss and his army of faux intellectuals responsible for the rise of today's neocons and the religion of 'Murican Exceptionalism". Bradford wrote this essay in the late 1990's. - Ed. M.C.] "Predictably, Jefferson’s Union did die in 1861. And in the latter stages of its ruin, the connection between blacks and American millennialism intensified. With […]

Veritas et Sapientia – Government By Men In Petticoats

Mandeville, LA - [Editor's note: I've used this passage from G.K. Chesterton's What's Wrong With The World in more than one talk I've given recently and find it both humorous and provocative. Enjoy! - M.C. Ed.] “There is an awful armor of ice which may be the legitimate protection of a more delicate organism; but whatever be the psychological explanation there can surely be no question of the fact. The instinctive […]

Veritas et Sapientia-The Patriotism Of Loving Your Native Land

Mandeville, LA - [The following was written by Sir Walter Scott.] Breathes there the man, with soul so dead, Who never to himself hath said, This is my own, my native land! Whose heart hath ne’er within him burn’d, As home his footsteps he hath turn’d From wandering on a foreign strand! If such there breathe, go, mark him well; For him no Minstrel raptures swell; High though his titles, […]
