NY Times: Conservative Catholicism is the Future
Avoiding Babylon
Intro
Speakers chat about a video they don't want to watch, make jokes about unwanted touching, and talk about replaying a video.
Can President Biden's press conference mishaps be explained, or are they symptomatic of a larger issue? Join us as we unpack his latest blunders, including the eyebrow-raising moment where he mistakenly referred to Trump as his Vice President. We dissect the media's portrayal of these gaffes, drawing parallels to their treatment of Trump's tenure, and speculate on Biden's motivations amidst mounting scrutiny. We shift gears to lighten the mood with some promotional notes and upcoming events tailored to those weary of heavy political discourse.
Next, we examine the growing trend of conservatism among newly ordained Catholic priests in the United States. Discover why priests ordained since 2010 are considered the most conservative in recent history, and how generational differences within the Church are shaping its future. We tackle the impact of past scandals and the ongoing struggle between traditional and modernist perspectives, providing insights into the concerns parents and potential seminarians face when choosing the right environment for theological and spiritual education.
Finally, we offer practical advice on Catholic confession etiquette, addressing common frustrations and the importance of brevity and proper contrition. Through personal anecdotes and references to classic films, we explore themes of sin, repentance, and genuine amendment of life. We round out the episode with gripping stories of bear attacks, the realities of self-defense, and the challenges of navigating urban safety in an increasingly radicalized world. Don't miss these engaging discussions that blend depth with humor and personal reflection.
