Source of San Diego ‘Vote Democrat = Mortal Sin’ Bulletin Flyer Revealed – Hint: Not the Church

Last updated on: November 7, 2016 at 12:10 pm By Keith Michael Estrada

Over the weekend, more clarity was brought to what was a flyer with an unknown source that had found its way into several San Diego Catholic parishes’ bulletins. On Friday, 4 November, we shared that flyers warning Catholics that a vote for a Democrat is a mortal and that those with unconfessed mortal sins should expect eternal damnation were discovered in Mass-goers bulletins at Immaculate Conception Parish in San Diego, California. While many media outlets were quick to associate the flyer’s... Read more

Fusion asks: How many countries are we bombing? (Video)

Last updated on: October 29, 2016 at 4:04 pm By Keith Michael Estrada

Violence begets violence – meanwhile, the arms industry shows us capitalism without a mask. How many countries are we bombing? Can you name all the countries the U.S. is currently bombing? (Spoiler alert: You can't. Nobody can.) pic.twitter.com/SIvngFBO1z — Fusion (@Fusion) October 27, 2016 What spawns this violence in the first place? Our country plays a tremendous role in setting the stage for the violence we’re “fighting against”, and does so in a way that promotes more violence, more injustice,... Read more

The song ‘A.D.’ from the metal band Hatebreed reminded a friend of me

Last updated on: October 28, 2016 at 4:09 pm By Keith Michael Estrada

(Potentially offensive wording follows.) A friend of mine told me that the lyrics to the song “A.D.” in Hatebreed’s new “Concrete Confessional” album reminded him of my views. If you’ve never heard of Hatebreed, or listen to heavy metal, you might hit ‘play’ with your sound volume muted or at 3%. The video below only has the lyrics and the audio, but the video after is a live performance of the song. Check it out: The band’s vocalist, also the... Read more

We repeat: If You Want Atheism, Destroy Creation, Embrace Capitalism.

Last updated on: October 27, 2016 at 6:15 pm By Keith Michael Estrada

This post was originally published on 4 January, 2016. I am reposting it, without modifications, after the feast of Saint John Paul II as I was reminded of it upon re-reading one of his most famous addresses. In it, the Saint writes, “Finally, the aesthetic value of creation cannot be overlooked. Our very contact with nature has a deep restorative power; contemplation of its magnificence imparts peace and serenity. The Bible speaks again and again of the goodness and beauty of... Read more

On the feast of Saint John Paul II: If You Want Priestly Vocations, Reject Capitalism!

Last updated on: October 21, 2016 at 4:49 pm By Keith Michael Estrada

This post was originally published on January 14, 2016. We are re-posting it in celebration of the feast of Saint John Paul II, 22 October, 2016. Surrounded by consumerism, materialism, and individualism, discerning a vocation to the priesthood becomes the anti-‘American’ option for young men. You’ll remember our post, “If You Want Atheism, Destroy Creation, Embrace Capitalism” from last week. It was incredibly popular with our atheist friends and our capitalist friends. This message of this post should be implied by... Read more
