Sheen on the set of his show Life Is Worth Living Later this year (September 23), Newchurch will “sanctify” Bishop Fulton J. Sheen (1895-1979).  During the midpoint of the last century, Sheen was undoubtedly the most well-known Catholic prelate in America mostly due to his widely-watched television program “Life is Worth Living.”  In addition to the show, Sheen made frequent appearances on radio…

First altar facing the people in the United States, 1939. Masses in English would soon after be spoken about. One of the few groups who recognized and spoke out about the growing liberalization of the Catholic Church prior to the Second Vatican Council (1962-65) was the Saint Benedict Center whose most prominent figure was Fr. Leonard Feeney (1897-1978).  In his hard-hitting, uncompromising…

The demise of the doctrine Extra Eccelsiam Nulla Salus did not begin with Fr. Leonard Feeney and what became known as the “Boston Heresy Case” of the late 1940s, but could be seen years before among even the most orthodox of theologians and religious.  While these scholars were solid on most topics, the idea that salvation could be possible without water baptism and be replaced with a “desire”…

Spellman (1889-1967) prior to WWII, and his wartime book The Road to…

At one time, the Church considered that those religious who participated in interfaith meetings committed a mortal sin.  Things began to change after WWII as clerics began taking part in interfaith activities.  After the Second Vatican Council 1962-65, not only priests, but Conciliar popes participated and began organizing interfaith meetings and, in some instances, popes took part in prayer…

It appears that the institution that Jorge Bergoglio (aka Pope Francis) heads is in store for severe economic troubles in the not-too-distant future. The Newpope does not want to admit that he and the church he heads are to blame for their upcoming financial difficulties. Bergoglio’s financial problems, unlike most Western governments (in particular the United States), is not so much from…

One of the first, of many, saints shunted aside by the Novus Ordo Church has been St. John the Baptist.  The lack of veneration and discussion of The Baptist is not surprising and has been done for a couple of reasons: First, besides being the precursor of Our Lord, St. John, as did his Divine Master, undauntedly pointed out the hypocrisy of much of the then Church’s hierarchy: And seeing, many…
