Tuesday Pile of Prep-Guns On Hoth Made Legal By The Second Amendment!?

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. 2017 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 –The Church needs a Roman vigor that persuades men to rise above self-consciousness. An English bishop reflected: “Wherever St. Paul went, there was a riot. Wherever I go, they serve tea.” In spiritual combat, there is no teatime, and effective strategies cannot be plotted at conferences, synods, workshops, and costly conventions at resort hotels with multiple “break-out” sessions and mellow music. One fears that a fly on the wall at any of those conversations would drop to the floor out of boredom. “For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?” – Father George Rutler, Crisis Magazine

THE MIKE CHURCH SHOW IS NOW AVAILABLE TO LISTEN TO LIVE! ON APPLE’S ITUNES!

This Is A Land Of 2nd Amendment Confusion – I am happy to repeat the argument I’ve made for 11 years running: the Constitution’s Second Amendment does NOT guarantee you the “right to keep and bear arms” and the NRA and gun-lobby’s perversion of the Amendment has led us to the crisis of today. I realize that since the 2nd Amendment has become a de facto, universal writ, from here to the ice-world of Hoth and back and so putting the horse back in the barn is almost impossible, but try we must. Now along comes John Daniel Davidson arguing that it is now time, in the wake of Parkland, FL, to “repeal the Second Amendment”. With Davidson’s piece in mind you should now be able to clearly see the folly of the Second Amendment as a universal RTKBA: if you make the 2nd Amendment universal to provide carry then it can be used to deny carry. The equitable path forward is clear: Tell the federal courts to butt out of all lawsuits against state-passed, sensible gun regulations and let responsible governments (and they must be held to account) regulate sale and possession.

The Age Of Prelates In Skinny Jeans – Back in June, Father George Rutler asked the question: where are the valiant Romans when the WORLD needs Rome and her King to save her from perdition once again. 9 months later, I’d say the situation is now chronic if not on life-support. Fr. Rutler nails the problem “churchmen” are possessed of today: they crave Civil power when they have direct, assured access to the greatest power on earth: ecclesiastical. Father Rutler pulls no punches.

“In spiritual combat, there is no teatime, and effective strategies cannot be plotted at conferences, synods, workshops, and costly conventions at resort hotels with multiple “break-out” sessions and mellow music.”

The Age of Media Hacks In Skinny Jeans – “Parkland FL is a tragedy that will not be soon forgotten…” is baloney and the Media Industrial Complex that feigns “sympathy” for the survivors knows it. Note the near pornographic abuse of putting teenagers on camera to “tell their stories” and “hear their suggestions” on what to do about “school violence”, isn’t that what parents and school boards are charged with doing!? So why is CNN, FOX et al, parading teenagers to share their eulogies and trauma? Fox’s Laura Ingraham is being deified for “standing up to LeBron James” over “gun control” comments but it was Ingraham who put a 16 year old on-air the night of the shootings who ended his infomercial for gun control with “you need to call your Congressman and get involved in the solution”.

Did George Washington Convert On His Deathbed? – Let it first be said that I would love to report to you that the “Father of His Country”, George Washington, became a Roman Catholic before he died. Indeed, that would change the biography of ‘Muricah’s first president and give some gravitas to Brother Andre’s call for Reconquest but alas the story is NOT true. Marian Horvat, John Horvat’s sister, has the most complete analysis of this claim I’ve ever read.

“Washington, like his more articulate contemporary and fellow-Freemason Jefferson, summarily rejected what they called “dogmaticism.” Like Jefferson, he was a Deist, a man who follows no particular religion but only acknowledges the existence of an impersonal God, without any articles of faith.”

Listen to my CRUSADE Channel colleague Rick Barrett’s outstanding interview with Ryan Grant on this subject, here.

The Devil Made Him Do It – The phrase “the demons are ascendent, they’ve come for the children and they won’t take no for an answer” is gaining in credibility and unfortunately, in provable instances. Now comes the news that the Parkland FL, mass murderer, Nikolas Cruz, “heard demons” around him but no one believed him. We also learn that the FBI had tips on the kid’s erratic behavior and did nothing about it

The Traditionalists Are Coming! The Traditionalists Are Coming! – We’re starting to see signs of a renaissance of Christian tradition in popular media. Yesterday the Archbishop of New Orleans asked parishioners to join him in battle against pornography! Now Paul Bryan takes to the American Conservative to continue the charge up Rotten Paradigm Hill.

“The future of a meaningful political alternative to the underlying liberalism, materialism, and me-first individualism on the left and right will revolve around traditionalists and pro-family conservative individuals who define their own destinies instead of letting themselves be engineered into destinies manufactured by multinational corporations and boardroom gremlins with diversity outreach strategies.”

This is a refrain you should be familiar with from the Mike Church Show.

The Parrot Press Corps Gets The Mass Murderers They Need – If the broadcast media stopped their “if it leads it bleeds” editorial policy would that stop most mass murders from occurring? Rebekkah Jorgensen thinks so but I remain unconvinced, but she does have a point: Media saturation combined with our obsession with materialism does influence our yewts behavior.

“This naturally raises important ethical questions. Namely, does the news industry mandate coverage of events that devastate small communities? Or can these occurrences be limited to the cities in which they occur, to avoid making the perpetrator an overnight celebrity?”

She’s right and doesn’t every social media addict, yearn for the fake adulation of others that the Parrot Press Corps/Media Industrial Complex delivers?

Our Lady Delivers What We’ve Prayed For: “Conservatives” Asked To Ban Porn! – I have not officially formed the CRUSADER Knights of The Rosary but I have mentioned it dozens of times the last 2 months and have also asked the Real Men who listen to the MCS, regardless of denomination, to join me daily in praying to The Mother of God via The Holy Rosary -Sancta Dei Gentrix – for an end to the legal protections for 4 Mortal Sins: Abortion, Contraception, Sodomy and….Pornography. Now along comes Michael Warren on the pages of The American Conservative Magazine rallying the “conservative” troops to…. BAN PORNOGRAPHY. And get a load of Warren’s reasoning, does it sound familiar?

“Fighting Porn: The Reviving Cause Social Conservatism Needs – It isn’t a last gasp; it’s a new beginning, one that’s rallying a new breed of young traditionalists.”

Thank you Sancta Dei Genetrix for letting us know the prayer request and the CRUSADE has won your favor! Now, can we win these “young traditionalists” over to The CRUSADE Channel and away from the secular schlock Hannity, Webb et al serve up? I think I know who to ask a favor of for that one. ——>

Our Lady Delivers What We’ve Prayed For: “Conservatives” Asked To Ban Porn 2! – Flipping to the pages of the NY Times, on the same subject, Ross Douthat has an editorial from last Sunday under the style of:

LET’S BAN PORN “Trump’s grotesqueries have stirred up a feminist reaction that’s more moralistic and less gamely sex-positive than the Clinton-justifying variety, and there’s no necessary reason why its moralistic gaze can’t extend to our porn addiction. And indeed, I think the part of the #MeToo movement that’s interested in discussing sexual unhappiness and not just sexual harassment clearly wants to talk about pornography, even if it doesn’t quite realize that yet.”

Douthat is the token “conservative” Catholic at the NY Times (David Brooks is also on that list) and is in his mid-thirties. Demographically speaking, this is the most encouraging development I’ve seen since launching the CRUSADE Channel.

The Parkland FL Madman Shows Signs of a Lack of God In His Life – The Daily Mail story on Nicholas Cruz paints a picture of a deeply disturbed young man who was in need of serious help and received nothing but scorn and rejection-the “bullying” culture we hear so much about. I’m not making excuses up for his murderous rampage but we’re not dealing “with a full deck” here and it is now, 18 counts of sad./

The Vulgar Immodesty of #MeToo’er Aly Raisman – So let me see if I have this right, in order to be respected and “taken seriously”, women must ditch feminine modesty, ditch their clothes and be photographed nude for the planet’s fornicators to ogle and…. you know. The lack of any attachment to reality including the plain meaning of words is reaching pandemic proportions and the latest Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition is an embarrassing catalogue of it as Brith McHenry points out.

“But own that without masking it under a civil rights movement. Spiranac and any other models posing nude should admit it is still done, to varying degrees, for male attention, fame, and publicity. Please, stop trying to connect your personal exhibitionism to large-scale female empowerment.”

Yes, Aly, thanks for contributing to the male “empowerment” gained from watching KY Jelly commercials while reading SI.

Fat, Lazy, Petulant ‘Murican Catholics Can’t Be Bothered To Leave Their Hovarounds For Ashes – It had to happen: DRIVE THROUGH ASHES for the uninspired, lazy, fat “catholic” who could not be bothered to sacrifice 40 minutes and go to Mass and get their Ash Wednesday blessing and memento “mementum moré” – “remember death”.

Ashes, Ashes We All Fall Down…And Die – Today’s Veritas et Sapientia comes from Captain Kirk. Listen to William Shatner’s Ash Wednesday Ballad, here.

Music To A CRUSADER Knight’s Ears: What ‘Muricah Needs Is More Gentlemen – Peggy Noonan sails her substantial literary skills into the Return to Order Harbor with a call for Gentlemen to doff the matrosexual skinny jeans, emerge from behind their wive’s yoga pants, stand up and be counted.

“In the past 40 years, in the movement for full equality, we threw it over the side. But we should rescue that old and helpful way of being. The whole culture, especially women, needs The Gentleman back.”

Amen, sistah, amen.

A person of the cultural left would say that is a hopelessly patriarchal thing to say. But one thing the #MeToo movement illustrates is that women are often at particular risk in the world, and need friends and allies to stand with them. That would be men. And the most reliable of them are gentlemen.

Membah, Membah! When The USA! USA! Chant Was For A War Victory? – 10 years ago I would have called BOTH Iraq war/invasions “victories” and would have loved to attend their ticker-tape “victory” parades. Danny Sjursen reminds us that “hundreds” died in the first Iraq War to “liberate” Kuwait. Think about that: HUNDREDS died and for what? Think about this, more “hundreds” will die in Afghanistan and Iraq if we don’t come to our senses and retreat from both of those quagmires of military industrial complex profit. But now, CIC Trump wants a military parade!?

“Trump, following the lead of his predecessors, has turned the petty political appropriation of the troops into an art form. Soldiers are a pawn in the game, a very old game, in which the hawkish interventionists inspire the base and depict the opposition as dovish traitors. This is distraction, meant to disguise what amounts to paltry policy in foreign affairs; it’s spectacle not strategy.”

It’s true, all true “we are a war-like people”.

From Russia With Love – In #MAGA ‘Muricah all one has to say if one is caught with one’s hand ina  cookie jar is “The Russians made me do it”. The Russians are blamed for everything and anything, they have become the RSTLNE of villains. Now, they are being fingered for interfering in ‘Murican elections that won’t occur for 8 months by none other than the Secretary of State Rex Tillerson. Wouldn’t it help Fake News makers if we just threw a token accusation Sweden or Norway’s way every once in a while or maybe Fiji…can’t trust those islanders now can we!?

John Horvat: The Coming Tomorrow Without God – Recent events support our civilizations descent into a disordered, secular chaos where the only defense and worship of God is done by a militant “remnant”. Don’t laugh, this future is being planned for right now (see AI story below). John Horvat has a telling piece on this very subject today. Reviewing the new book Hono Deus, Horvat sounds frightened.

“What makes Prof. Harari’s history of tomorrow so terrifying is that he is deadly serious about the project. Not only is he serous but he is joined by a secular establishment that has put this vision together. You see how this vision logically fits in with a vast framework of data networks that tend to make this future feel so very present.”

For more evidence of this read Hugh Owens’ magnificent review of Tielhard de Chardin’s work in the same direction. Note that today’s Mike Church Show discussion centered on this and my contention that the new catholic church has already been formed. The “c” is lower case because it isn’t The Holy replacement it is the unholy, secular Greek use of the term katholica meaning “universal” as in New World Order, one world government/religion.

Dressing With Dignity: Time To Give Katie Perry-Like Immodesty The Heave And The Ho – Colleen Hammond’s book “Dressing With Dignity” (available here) sets the bar for modesty and dress but doesn’t just give fashion advice to girls and women, it give salvation advice:

“Style must never be a proximate [near] occasion of sin… It is often said, almost with passive resignation, that fashions reflect the customs of a people. But it would be more exact and much more useful to say that they express the decision and moral direction that a nation intends to take: either to be ship-wrecked in licentiousness, or maintain itself at the level to which it has been raised by religion and civilization.”

This is a subject near and dear to my heart and a vocation (dressing with dignity) I have pursued with zeal the last 2 years after realizing the damage done to other’s dignity by my lack of sartorial effort.

Doctor, Doctor, Give Me The Screws… – The transgenderMammy™ contagion has spread so deeply into the medical profession that young women are now being mutilated for profit without any oversight and no mental counseling. That is the conclusion of the new book When Harry Became Sally reviewed here by Austin Ruse, and it ain’t for the squeamish.

“One girl started on testosterone gel at 18, switching shortly thereafter to injections. At college her “voice broke,” her hips narrowed, her shoulders broadened. Then she had her otherwise healthy breasts amputated, an operation that was botched and left her with severe scarring. Anderson points out that in all these interactions with the medical profession she never received any counseling on why “she felt so strongly that she wanted to be a man.” She now says, “I have become a female who looks like a man. I will always have a broken voice and will never grow breasts…” And she never received even a moment of counseling.” [Emphasis mine-M.Ç.]

The book’s stories are harrowing from the point of view that bodies and lives are being physically altered with no chance of repair. This is being done, allegedly, to bring about a more fairer world in which those born into the bodies of the sex they believe is not for them. But what is fair about having your breasts cut off while being doped up with drugs that get you banned from any professional sport? This is the work of Beazelbub and the boys and the poor souls who undergo these mutilations are the prizes.

DeceptiCONNED: Why The War Party Hates Putin – MBD posits that Putin “hatin'” has become a John Boltonesque blood sport precisely because he keeps showing up in the places ‘Murica’s aggression leaves him no option but to bolt to, like Crimea after Ukraine.

The accusations of Putin’s influence have been hottest precisely where democratic results have upset the historical self-confidence of the post-Cold War liberal order: Brexit and Trump. Putin’s influence is a way of explaining why the destiny of liberal champions was upset by populist ogres, why liberal policies haven’t pulled us into the final glory at the end of history, or why the liberal world was vulnerable to these “mistakes,” the ones produced by voters.

Of course, if you are reader of this space you know the real reason the DeceptiCONS despise Putin and Russia in general.

It’s January 2018 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 limits. I have to do what I want to do. Now let’s analyze that for a moment, is that happiness?”
