From the article: โ€œDuring that conversation, the Archbishop asked Fr. Ripperger to consider a one-year fast from public speaking and interviews.โ€ Asking Fr Ripperger to consider a one-year fast from public speaking is not the same as being silenced.

Today's mass had the school choir, 3rd to 8th grade. Pleasantly surprised to see 13 of the 15 kids received communion on the tongue. Tradition and reverence is returning.

Each Christian's words and life must make this proclamation resound: God loves you, Christ came for you, Christ is for you "the Way, the Truth and the Life!" (Jn 14:6)." -POPE ST. JOHN PAUL II

It was a pretty solid trip: - A book on the Trinity - A daily prayer book - Illustrated lives of the saints for the kiddos - 6 rosaries (1 for the wife, 5 for the kids) - 6 brown scapulars (1 for me and 5 for the kids)

One of the things Iโ€™m most excited about is a 690-page behemoth called โ€œThe Trinity: On the Nature and Mystery of the One Godโ€ by Fr. Thomas Joseph White, OP.
Had the day off. Got bored. Went to the Catholic store and bought stuff.

People keep saying โ€œwe need to see justice servedโ€ but I honestly donโ€™t think thatโ€™s why Trump approved it to be live-streamed. He is a showman with an enormous ego, and I think the decision to live-stream an execution by firing squad is rooted in that, not a desire for justice or deterrence.

My two cents: Capital punishment is for justice, not entertainment.
Fort Hood shooter's firing squad execution will stream live for public viewing. Exclusive details: tmz.com/2026/10/08/pete-hegsโ€ฆ

This is something a liberal/Democrat would never do. Thus the non-answer was inadvertently an answer.
Today a student asked me if I liked Donald Trump. I told her that it is not appropriate for me to give her my opinion on that kind of thing, and that she should ask her parents about it and also look into it on her own. She told me that multiple other teachers told her that they did not like him. I told her that I think that that was irresponsible and they should keep their opinions on politics to themselves.

Jesus Christ is the uncreated Logos, the divine ratio that orders all things, he is pure logic itself in human form. He is King of Kings, Lord of Lords.

Brothers and sisters, please pray for Blake.
A 16-year-old young man I know from church has gone missing. His name is Blake. In your charity, please pray he is found safe. Thank you.

Yeah that about sums it up.
Historically, when two verses in the New Testament have appeared to contradict each other, Catholics sought a way to harmonize them. Protestants just take whichever verse gives them less responsibility, ignore the second altogether, and call it Scripture interpreting Scripture.

Wife told me this evening that sheโ€™s noticed more and more kids at school receiving communion on the tongue, whereas just a few years ago everyone was receiving in the hand.
