A Question for My Protestant Brothers and Sisters…
Naturally, I am Catholic. A fundamental belief of the Catholic Church is the Real Presence of the Eucharist. This belief is that Jesus Christ dwells truly and really in the Eucharist; Body Blood and Soul Divinity. The bread and wine BECOMES the Body and Blood of Jesus. This is not a metaphor, symbol, analogy, etc.…

It is Just a Blip in Eternity.
The boldest claim that religion can offer is an after life. The ancient belief that our existence continues after our body and soul are separated at death. Christianity believes that humans are made in the image and likeness of God. The catechism says, “God, infinitely perfect and blessed in himself, in a plan of sheer…

Love of God
I prefer to talk about the death and suffering of Jesus Christ. I prefer to talk about being a slave of righteousness instead of a slave to sin. I prefer to talk about virtue and excellence. I prefer to talk about the freedom of obeying God’s commandments. But rarely to I feel inclined to talk…

“Jesus Christ” is not a Cuss Word
It is becoming clearer everyday that we live in a post-Christian society. We have remnants of a Christian culture without understanding their origin. Christianity is becoming hollow due to it’s practitioners failing to appreciate the mysteries of the Faith. Our use of religious language is a prime example. How often do we hear people say,…

I believe that an Athiest cannot be a hypocrite and that’s a bad thing
No one likes a hypocrite. No one likes someone who is all talk and no bite. Someone who wants all of the credit but puts in zero effort. Someone who loves to critique others but hate being critiqued. Someone who comes off as a saint and acts like a devil. Jesus’s harshest critiques were not…

Should’ve Could’ve Would’ve are from the Devil
C.S. Lewis wrote a terrific book called, “Screw Tape Letters.” The premise of the book is that an elder demon is giving tips and advice to a younger demon. One such advice is about what should the subject focus their attention on: the past, present, or future? The demon proceeds to say absolutely do not…

Authority is a Pretty Big Deal
I have heard so many times, “Why does the Roman Catholic Church have so many rules?” But the quantity of rules is not an argument to avoid conversion. Just saying that the Church has a lot of rules is not an argument. At best it is a complaint, and at worse it is a whine.…

How many people should the Average Catholic convert?
The Gospel of Matthew ends with Jesus proclaiming, “Baptize the Nations.” The beginning of Acts had over 3000 people willing to be Baptized in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Notable Saints have assisted with conversions as well. Saint Ignatius, Saint Teresa of Avila, Saint John Bosco, Saint Philip Nerie,…

Who is Greedier the Player or the Chaste person?
The nobility of saving yourself for marriage is becoming forgotten. There are less and less examples of successful marriages, happy marriages, or marriages where the couple had no previous relationships. My question then is who is greedier “the player” who tries to sleep with as many people as possible or the “chaste person” who wants…

5 things that you want and it is not pornography
This post marks the beginning of my “Struggles with Impurity” series. One of the gravest plagues afflicting our society is pornography and masturbation; especially among men. John Paul ii defined freedom as, “being able to do what you OUGHT to do.” Pornography and masturbation enslaves people to their natural hormones and endorphins which weakens our…
