THE RITTENHOUSE TRIAL AND THE STATE OF AMERICA

The Trial of Kyle Rittenhouse has captured the attention of America.

Fr. Bill discusses the trial, not in terms of innocence or guilt, but in terms of what everything about the trial – what led up to it, what it is about, how it has been conducted by the participants, what the media and politicians have sad about it – ultimately says about the state of America and the attitudes that have become prevalent among the People.

THE END OF THE CHURCH – The Worst Crisis Ever!

Many Catholics are critical of Pope Francis and other Bishops for not calling out Catholic politicians who are in favor of abortion. Some have called Pope Francis a “false Pope”, an “anti-Pope” and even “Satan’s Pope”. Some say that the Church is in a crisis from which it may never recover.

Fr. Bill talks about another crisis from Church history and puts the current issues into the proper perspective of the Church’s checkered, but triumphant past.

To VAX or NOT to VAX!

Fr. Bill addresses the controversy over Covid Vaccinations.  He talks about the issue of “Forced” Vaccinations, and addresses the ethical questions people raise with regard to taking the Vaccine.

(note – Fr. Bill is NOT speaking as an official spokesperson of the Catholic Church.  Rather, he speaks as a pastoral minister who has had to address this in discussions with those who have approached him for advice and guidance.)

9/11 and the STAR SPANGLED BANNER

Three days after the attacks on 9/11, President George W. Bush called on the nation to observe a National Day of Prayer.  In addition to that day (9/14) being the Catholic Feast of the Triumph of the Cross of Christ, it is also the anniversary of the triumph after the Siege of Fort McHenry, outside Baltimore, Maryland.

Join Fr. Bill as he discusses and relates the events of 9/11 with that important and overlooked anniversary.

WHEN PEOPLE LEAVE THE CATHOLIC CHURCH – The First Teaching that Drove People Away

Many people, Catholic and Non-Catholic, object to certain teachings of the Catholic Church.  This is nothing new.  Fr. Bill talks about the up and coming readings of the Sunday Mass, what Jesus taught and how His audience responded.  Fr. Bill then compares it to the objections to current teachings of the Church, the demand of some people that the Church change its teachings, and the penchant for Catholics to leave the Church over them.

POPE FRANCIS & the TRADITIONAL LATIN MASS

Pope Francis has rolled back Pope Benedict XVI’s allowance for greater access to the Traditional Latin Mass. Some are saddened, some confused, some indifferent.

Fr. Bill discusses the issue, and how the Traditional Latin and Novus Ordo Masses relate to the other Rites of the Catholics Church.
