    Thank God I'm Atheist
    Can the Religious Left Stop Christian Nationalism?

    As Christian nationalism tightens its grip on the nation's politics, a new crop of progressive candidates is putting faith front and center. From James Talarico to Abdul El-Sayed, the religious left is making a more explicit play for political power (and challenging the idea that Republicans get to own God). Can religious progressives provide an effective counterweight to Christian nationalism, or are we just inviting more religion into a political system that could use a lot less of it? Also on the show: Christians find God on both sides of the fight over massive AI data centers; Florida's attorney general picks a fight with Catholic schools over vaccine exemptions; the Arizona Supreme Court hands the Mormon Church a win in a horrific child-abuse case; anti-Muslim opposition to a proposed mosque lands an Oklahoma city in court; new data reveals just how differently Mormons practice their religion around the world; and Texas' mandatory Ten Commandments displays face a new legal challenge.

    f the SSPX had consecrated 30 to 50 bishops, Rome would have been forced to negotiate. That is the assessment of Professor William Thomas, a Vatican theologian and classmate of Pope Leo XIV, who argues that the Society's recent consecrations, while historic, did not go far enough to compel the Vatican to take the traditionalist movement seriously.Thomas praises the traditional liturgy and warns that suppressing the Latin Mass will not resolve the underlying doctrinal disputes. The crisis is not liturgical; it is doctrinal. And the Vatican's response to the SSPX reveals a hierarchy more interested in punishment than dialogue.The conversation turns to the synodal project, which Thomas sharply criticizes for its plans to involve non-Christian religions in its implementation. Synodality, he argues, is fundamentally incompatible with the Church's divine mandate to evangelize. It replaces apostolic tradition with ambiguity, a new religion of process rather than truth.Make the switch today to iCatholicMobile today!iCatholic Mobile—supporting the Catholic faith with every connection.https://www.facebook.com/icatholicmobile https://www.icatholicmobile.com/ HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

    Matt Swaim, Ken Hensley, and Kenny Burchard each came from parts of the Evangelical world where faith in Jesus was strong, and love of the Bible ran deep, but knowledge of Church history wasn't particularly robust. And none of them gave much thought at all to Clement of Rome, who would have known the apostles and had a Christian leadership role in Rome in the era immediately following the martyrdoms of Peter and Paul. So who was he? Matt, Ken, and Kenny share their experience of discovering the witness of Clement of Rome, and discuss how his story led each of them to want to learn more about the early Church. The Coming Home Network was established in 1993 to help inquiring clergy and laity of various faiths -- or even no faith at all -- with fellowship, resources, and encouragement as they explore the possibility of becoming Catholic.

    In this release, Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre enters one of the most consequential moments of his life: the Second Vatican Council. Chapter 12 follows him as a member of the Central Preparatory Commission, where he sees early signs of deep division within the Church over doctrine, liturgy, religious liberty, collegiality, Communism, and the social reign of Christ the King. As the Council begins, he becomes one of the leading figures in the Coetus Internationalis Patrum, a group of bishops working to defend Catholic tradition amid the growing influence of liberal and modernizing currents. This chapter shows Archbishop Lefebvre not as a spectator, but as a combatant in the great theological battles that would shape the Church's future.

    Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Gospel – Matthew 18:1-5, 10, 12-14 – The disciples approached Jesus and said, “Who is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven?” He called a child over, placed it in their midst, and said, “Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven. Whoever becomes humble like this child is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven. And whoever receives one child such as this in My Name receives Me. “See that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that their angels in heaven always look upon the Face of My heavenly Father. What is your opinion? If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine in the hills and go in search of the stray? And if he finds it, amen, I say to you, he rejoices more over it than over the ninety-nine that did not stray.  In just the same way, it is not the will of your heavenly Father that one of these little ones be lost.” Memorial of Saint Clare, Virgin Saint Clare, pray for us!

    You're about to hear a conversation about leadership. Today's guest, Dr. Annmarie Caño, is an expert in leadership. Dr. Caño draws on her 25-year career in higher education — and her love of Ignatian spirituality — in her work today as a writer, speaker and executive coach who helps higher education and social impact leaders enact personal and systemic change. She draws heavily on liberation theology, liberation psychology and the legacy of the Salvadoran martyrs in her work and her personal reflections. And she has a wonderful new book from Johns Hopkins University Press called “Leading Toward Liberation: How to Build Cultures of Thriving in Higher Education.” But what today's host, Eric Clayton, continues to find so compelling about his conversation with Annmarie is the fact of where they met: She attended a conference that the Jesuit Media Lab co-hosted on the Catholic imagination and speculative storying. Why? It wasn't because she's a burgeoning fantasy author — though they do talk a bit about Tolkien in today's conversation. No — she attended that conference because she sees as foundational to her mission the work of bringing to life un otro mundo posible — or an “other” possible world. Quite literally, Dr. Caño is thinking about leadership as the creation of other realities, other ways of living, and she is concerned about ensuring that everyone — particularly those often forgotten by society — have a seat at the table. As much as Eric loves talking about Middle-earth and Narnia, he was even more excited to get to talk about what it might look like to build new worlds in our actual, real lives — and to consider the real people that can helped in so doing.

    Patrick opens with hard-hitting questions on salvation and evangelization, confronting listeners with challenging truths from Scripture about who really enters heaven. He weaves a vivid analogy likening salvation to hitting a dartboard’s center, pressing the urgency of embracing the Catholic faith fully and honestly wrestling with its demands. Addressing topics from holy death and prayers for the dead to reverence at Mass and the nuances of valid Catholic marriage, Patrick moves fast, never shying from uncomfortable realities or pressing listeners to think deeper about their journey. Email - Why do we evangelize when more people can be saved without evangelization? (00:38) Diane - I pray for the holy souls all the time. Is it wrong for me to pray for mine and my husband's soul since no one else will? (13:22) Joe - I think it is appropriate to genuflect before the Tabernacle. I am assuming there is no Church stance on this, so it is an opinion issue. (23:07) Carol – What is your opinion on the necessity of the convalidation of a marriage later in life after 36 years of marriage? I’m trying to return to Church. (30:49) Patrick in Florida - I had a mass offered for my father this weekend. They only mentioned his name in the prayers of the faithful. Does this count as indeed being offered for him? (47:19)

Listeners get honesty and plenty of surprise as Patrick moves from worn church pews to the sounds of Van Halen, never staying in one lane for long.

    “Is Raphael lying to Tobias?” This question delves into the intriguing moment in Tobit where Raphael identifies himself in a way that raises doubts about honesty. Additionally, the discussion touches on the unique role of Peter in relation to the keys of the kingdom, the Ethiopian Bible, and the biblical foundations for Vatican II, showcasing a rich exploration of faith and scripture. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 04:13 – I was reading Tobit 5 where Raphael appears to Tobias and Tobias doesn't recognize him as an angel. In v11 he asks what tribe he's from, and Raphael replies saying he's one of Tobias' relatives. What's going on here? It sounds like an angel is lying to Tobias. 16:14 – I'm a catechumen and kind of between Orthodoxy and Catholicism right now. When Jesus gives the keys to Peter, later in that chapter he gave the rest of the apostles to ability to bind and loose. Catholics say that they keys give the pope the ability to bind and loose, but if the rest of the apostles have that, what makes Peter unique? 28:43 – What do you know about the Ethiopian bible and the books of Enoch? 33:08 – What recommendations do you have to get a Catholic typological understanding of the bible? 42:23 – Is the scripture materially sufficient for salvation? 52:45 – What are the biblical bases for Vatican II and becoming modern?

    Saturday Daily Rosary - SPOKEN MALE VOICE with AMBIENT MUSIC by artist: Mandala Dreams  - Song Title: The Quiet Spa This week's collection of beautiful music welcomes you into a calm state of prayer as together, we offer up our intentions alongside this daily rosary. This rosary contains the joyful mysteries, recited on Mondays and Saturdays.  These mysteries focus on the Incarnation and Jesus' early life, with fruits including humility and love of neighbor. Join in the communion of saints in praying the rosary, as it connects you with the communal prayer of the universal Church and the saints throughout history, fostering a profound sense of spiritual solidarity.  The spoken portion of this rosary is 17 minutes, with extended music for additional meditation.  All music in this video is licensed thru Epidemic Sound Publishing.
