Is there a definitive cause for the collapse in religious vocations? In this Pints With Aquinas episode, host Matt Fradd asks Sister Miriam Heidland, SOLT, a pressing question: Why are there so few religious sisters today? “I think part of it is the attack on spiritual motherhood and spiritual fatherhood…really, it’s the attack on man and woman, and like, who are we?” she begins. Sister Miriam then shares a personal story and offers her opinion on why there are fewer vocations to the religious life today. “I was talking with the bishop many months ago, and he was saying that in the 1960s…there was a religious community in Wisconsin that was receiving a hundred women a year. 100 women! And they built a brand new novitiate, and then by 1972, they were receiving just four,” she says. At this point in her conversation with the bishop, Sister Miriam says, he posed the question: “Women still have the capacity to say ‘yes’ to this divine invitation. What is preventing them?” Sister Miriam …
Cardinal Gerhard Müller, 77, told PelicanPlus.com on 8 December that the modern push for gender and homosexual ideology is "absolutely criminal". PelicanPlus is a paywalled website that publishes media contributions from several traditional Catholic authors in the US. It uses the a blogging software Ghost.org (a competitor to WordPress) and technical maintenance provided by Treefort Systems. Cardinal Müller believes naively that bishops are "naive" about homosexual ideology. "God created human beings, male and female," he said, adding that it is also biologically and empirically "obvious" that we exist as men and women. He linked this ideology to communist and gnostic ideologies and warns of an attack on the divine institution of marriage. Cardinal Müller asked: "Which ideology was responsible for the deaths of more than 100 million people and the Gulags?" He replied: "This is not an accident in communism, but a logical consequence of atheism and a lack of respect for life." Furthermore …More

Well, one cannot resign from a position one does not hold. The Church has decreed that the appointments of heretics are invalid and void. Before God, this apostate, a cover-up for pedophile priests, a pro-gay Marxist, and promoter of Masonic ideals, is usurping the office with the purpose of waging war against God and the Church, so he will not leave voluntarily.

I will put enmity between you & the woman (Gen 3,15). Immaculate Conception of Mary. Fr. Lameswar Kanhar, Ph.D. in Philosophy, JDV, Pune, India. Book of Genesis 3,9-15.20. The LORD God called to the Adam and asked him, “Where are you?” He answered, "I heard you in the garden; but I was afraid, because I was naked, so I hid myself." Then he asked, "Who told you that you were naked? You have eaten, then, from the tree of which I had forbidden you to eat!" The man replied, "The woman whom you put here with me--she gave me fruit from the tree, so I ate it." The LORD God then asked the woman, "Why did you do such a thing?" The woman answered, "The serpent tricked me into it, so I ate it." Then the LORD God said to the serpent: "Because you have done this, you shall be banned from all the animals and from all the wild creatures; On your belly shall you crawl, and dirt shall you eat all the days of your life. I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; He …More

A reflection by Umberto Eco While giving a lecture at the Royal Spanish Academy in Rome, I found myself repeatedly blinded by a woman’s camera flash. Every time I tried to read my notes, another burst of light hit me. Annoyed, I finally said what I often have to say to overly eager photographers—that while I’m doing my work, I need them to pause theirs. She turned off her camera, but with a look that suggested I had somehow offended her. Another time, in San Leo, during a civic event where I had been invited to speak about the landscapes painted by Piero della Francesca, three people stood in front of me firing their flashes nonstop. Again, I had to ask them to show at least a minimum level of courtesy. And mind you—none of these people were paparazzi. They were educated adults who had voluntarily come to listen to a lecture. Yet the moment they held a camera or a phone, the “electronic eye” took over, and their cultural awareness evaporated. They weren’t interested in what I was …More

The most hypocritical of all European institutions, the European Commission, combats disinformation in a similar way. Of course, the only entity that determines what constitutes disinformation is the one who spreads it. The history of misleading public opinion is as old as humanity itself. The example of the United States’ entry into the two World Wars and the Vietnam War illustrates how this is done. False flag tactics or provocations for actual military action were mostly employed to gain public acceptance for participation in the war.
