Pascendi Part 13

February 23, 2014 00:00 - 25 minutes - 11.5 MB

We look at paragraph 25. The modernist doesn't really want "Church-State separation." He wants the Church to be subordinate to the State. We discuss the success of false ecumenism within the clergy. Modernists change not only their opinions but their own definition of dogmas to fit the times. Modernists do not like "pomp." They want a bare religion and find an apparent ally in Pope Francis. This is the modernist doctrine of "Kenosis." They want the Church to empty Herself to the p...

Paragraph 25 is discussed, in which Pius addresses the Modernist's desire for Church-State separation. We talk about this in light of its consequence: false ecumenism. Pascendi: http://www.papalencyclicals.net/Pius10/p10pasce.htm

Pascendi Part 11

February 02, 2014 00:00 - 28 minutes - 26.1 MB

This episode covers paragraphs 21-23 in which Pius addresses the Modernist's attack on the Sacraments, the Bible and the Church.

January 26, 2014 00:00 - 30 minutes - 27.9 MB

This episode covers paragraphs 17-20. Pius writes about the conduct of modernists and they particular dislike for the Church Fathers and Councils as they do not like dogma. We discuss the modernist's theology in some detail. We also discuss how modernists put scientists up as a type of magisterium with whom they go to for answers. Pascendi: http://www.papalencyclicals.net/Pius10/p10pasce.htm

Pascendi Part 9

January 19, 2014 00:00 - 24 minutes - 22.7 MB

Pascendi Part 8

January 12, 2014 00:00 - 29 minutes - 13.5 MB

Covering paragraph 13 we discuss the modernists' love for "evolving dogma" and contrast this with the proper understanding of "development of doctrine." Evolving dogma is really code for "changing the beliefs of the Church to suit whims of the modernists." "Development of Doctrine" is the "growth in the Church's understanding of the truths of divine revelation" (Fr. John Hardon.) Pascendi: http://www.papalencyclicals.net/Pius10/p10pasce.htm

Pascendi Part 7

December 29, 2013 00:00 - 28 minutes - 12.8 MB

In this episode we cover paragraph 12 of Pascendi. Pope Pius writes about the modernists view of dogma. Modernists like to reinterpret dogma to fit their current behavior. Because everything is relative to the modernists, they therefore have no objective truth to base dogma on. Pascendi: http://www.papalencyclicals.net/Pius10/p10pasce.htm

Pascendi Part 6

December 22, 2013 00:00 - 24 minutes - 11.4 MB

Here we cover paragraph 11 in which St. Pius discusses how modernists use the intellect. He explains that modernists only use the intellect AFTER they have an emotional experience. The intellect, they say, is there to make sense of their religious sentimentality. Finally, we discuss some of the protestant and Catholic groups that use religious sentimentality in the way Pius describes.

Pascendi Part 5

December 15, 2013 00:00 - 27 minutes - 12.5 MB

Paragraphs 9-10 are discussed here. We look at the technique of the modernists and how they discount miracles of Christ. Modernists claim that people of faith have added a religious sense to Christ and that is how faith has developed. Pius deals with this accordingly with the appropriate anathema.

Pascendi Part 4

December 08, 2013 16:46 - 30 minutes - 27.7 MB

We cover paragraphs 7-8 in this episode. We discuss the term "vital immanence" and how this idea of the modernists dictates their entire philosophy. Modernists believe that all truth comes from within themselves, as opposed to from God. We review Pius' treatment of the modernist's worship of science and the ultimate folly behind their philosophy. http://www.papalencyclicals.net/Pius10/p10pasce.htm

December 01, 2013 21:54 - 29 minutes - 27.3 MB

Episode 15

October 29, 2013 02:41 - 21 minutes - 19.9 MB

We come to the end of Libertas. Rob gives a general overview of liberalism in light of Libertas. We discuss how liberalism is a tearing down of Catholic principles whereas modernism is a building of new false principles. Liberals are those who wish not to serve Christ, just as Lucifer proclaimed. Finally, we are joined by Pope Leo himself in an audio recording. Libertas: http://www.papalencyclicals.net/Leo13/l13liber.htm Liberalism is a Sin book mentioned: http://www.liberalism...

Libertas Part 14

October 20, 2013 18:02 - 24 minutes - 22.2 MB

In this episode we cover paragraphs 39-41. Leo explains when it is good to adapt to the times but also when it is dangerous to "get with the times." We review some of the Church legates who are in favor of "getting with the times." We describe this Liberal Catholicism as it is connected to Masonic-Enlightenment principles. Some very relevant prophecies are discussed.

Libertas Part 13

October 13, 2013 16:25 - 26 minutes - 24.2 MB

Leo's condemnation of religious liberty and separation of church and state are briefly reviewed. We have talked extensively about some of the problems of the world. Pope Leo says that the teaching of sound doctrine is the treatment for these illnesses. We talked about Pope Leo's pronouncement against the idea of "getting with the times" and addressed some specific examples from those in the hierarchy. Finally, we talked about the Church's true teaching of toleration of evil versus ...

Libertas Part 12

October 06, 2013 15:11 - 25 minutes - 23.6 MB

In paragraph 30 we review Leo's coverage of "liberty of conscience." We discuss the proper Catholic understanding of this idea and the importance of a well-formed conscience. This leads to a brief discussion on modernism. The "synthesis of all errors" is the culmination of many issues we have discussed thus far in the series. Libertas: http://www.papalencyclicals.net/Leo13/l13liber.htm Rob's article: http://thecatholicfaith.blogspot.com/2012/11/modernism-synthesis-of-all-heresie...

Libertas Part 11

September 30, 2013 01:46 - 27 minutes - 25.4 MB

Leo discusses truth. In this episode he specifically addresses those teachers and reminds all that the duty of teachers is to banish error from the mind. We discuss how some teachers who do not have the truth are incapable of teaching it and therefore teach error. Leo describes the Church as "the greatest and most reliable teacher of mankind" and that "through His heavenly gift she cannot be deceived." Papal infallibility, and it's limitations, are also examined. Libertas: http://...

Libertas Part 10

September 26, 2013 03:40 - 24 minutes - 22.3 MB

Leo follows up his condemnation of religious liberty by covering freedom of speech and the freedom of the press. We discuss the ideas of the "untutored multitude" and the "unbridled intellects". This covers paragraphs 21-23.

Libertas Part 9

September 16, 2013 02:17 - 24 minutes - 22.1 MB

We conclude our discussion on religious liberty by covering paragraph 20. We discuss the relationship between virtue and religion. We address the church's proper and traditional viewpoint on what St. Augustine called "the liberty of perdition." Libertas: http://www.papalencyclicals.net/Leo13/l13liber.htm

Libertas Part 8

September 09, 2013 01:57 - 26 minutes - 24.3 MB

In this episode we start our discussion on the idea of "religious liberty." Condemned by Pope Leo XIII in Libertas this idea has been completely turned around in the modern age. Those individuals in the Church now promote "religious liberty." Because our end is to God, our worship can only come from the Divinely established religion, the Catholic Church. We are not "free" to choose a false religion. Libertas: http://www.papalencyclicals.net/Leo13/l13liber.htm The Dolan article: ...

Libertas Part 7

September 02, 2013 03:13 - 25 minutes - 23 MB

In this episode we continue our discussion about the duties of all men to accept the authority and law of God. This includes individual members of the government and the government as a whole. We discuss some of the dangers of this not happening and we give a specific example of this in the words of a former Nazi Hitler youth. The rise of Nazism is the same a as the rise of Godlessness. When the state separates itself from the Church there is no more authority to reference to se...

Libertas Part 6

August 26, 2013 13:09 - 28 minutes - 26.1 MB

In this episode we discuss paragraph 17. We talk about the Divine Positive Law as a way of knowing truth. The Divine Positive Law is that part of God’s Eternal Law that covers revealed. Liberals from time to time accept some of the Natural Law (reason) but refuse to accept Divine Law. We also discuss how revelation is Morally Necessary, according to Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange. Our discourse on paragraph 18 focuses on Leo’s treatment of the “separation of Church and State” fallacy. S...

Libertas Part 5

August 19, 2013 12:51 - 28 minutes - 25.8 MB

In this episode we examine Libertas paragraphs 13 and 15. We discuss how Liberals are those who want to ignore the sovereignty of God and subsequently act as though they are their own gods. In society this plays out to be the “will of the people.” Because God is not the reference to look to for any question, the majority of the people become the decision makers. Pope Leo describes the separation of God and society as “repugnant.” The ultimate consequence of this is the lowering o...
