00:01:20.040
We'll begin as we always do with the sign of the cross.
00:01:23.740
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
00:01:27.960
Welcome, John Henry, to the show, and thank you so much for being here to answer our sustainer questions.
00:01:37.580
We have things related to the recent election, the COVID and vaccines, and also some issues related to the church.
00:01:45.740
So we'll dive right in with our very first question this week from Joe in New York City, New York.
00:01:51.880
He asks, why are you at LifeSite covering so much of the COVID and COVID vaccine issues and not a lot more on your core life and family issues?
00:02:05.680
It's an interesting one because we've often got that kind of question over our nearly 25 years of existence at LifeSite.
00:02:12.600
Because we're called LifeSite, a lot of people think, hey, why are you covering the LGBT issue or why are you covering the church issues?
00:02:22.560
Why are you covering, and now it's often why you're covering the COVID issues.
00:02:25.520
Well, for one thing, LifeSite's approach has always been, from our very, very beginning, to cover what is going on both in terms of life and family and cultural issues.
00:02:38.520
We have fought the kind of communist sort of tyranny right from our outset.
00:02:45.540
In fact, one of the first projects that I was on prior to even the start of LifeSite, when we were all still working with Campaign Life Coalition, the pro-life group in Canada out of which we were founded,
00:02:58.440
was actually to research what was going on with the machinations toward a new world order, one world government, that were already happening way back in the early 90s.
00:03:10.640
And so at this point, we've been covering what actually we started reporting on way back then, because it's finally we're seeing the imposition of this kind of a communist control, not only in Canada and the United States, but globally.
00:03:29.100
And so it's very much in line with our reporting, not only that, with the COVID vaccines, of course, they are abortion tainted.
00:03:37.420
And so abortion itself is also in the mix, if you will, of what's going on.
00:03:44.260
But also it's fundamentally a life issue in many respects with regard to the COVID and the vaccines themselves.
00:03:53.040
Remember with COVID, you had Dr. Zelenko, actually where you're from, who started treating patients because he had the highest, probably one of the highest concentration of COVID patients in the whole of the United States, perhaps the whole world.
00:04:09.380
And he was trying to figure out because he was an Orthodox Jew, as were most of his clientele or his patients were.
00:04:18.000
And so he was trying desperately to figure out a way to treat these folks who had come down with this, you know, deadly pathogen and that we know as COVID-19 now, which of course was lab originated in China.
00:04:34.900
And so we have a treatment that was denied people knowingly.
00:04:41.360
So old treatments, ivermectin, HCQ, and so on, which were actively denied people when they were known to be saving lives.
00:04:50.180
And then that information suppressed and suppressed and suppressed.
00:04:56.560
And what we're seeing with the imposition of vaccines and the ignoring of the vaccine adverse event database that showing massive numbers of deaths from the vaccine, far more than any vaccine rollout has ever had.
00:05:11.500
In fact, more so than all of the vaccine injuries recorded over the years.
00:05:16.900
You really do start to wonder what the agenda is here.
00:05:20.880
And we know that it's very much a pro-life question.
00:05:23.980
Our next question is based on the church and also it's an interesting one from Aaron in Iowa.
00:05:35.040
A huge modern fallacy is that we have been programmed to blindly believe authority.
00:05:41.540
This is obviously a primary channel for the devil to work through, corrupt authority.
00:05:46.880
But as Catholics, we have been primed to trust our authorities.
00:05:49.920
When we know they are corrupt, how does a person recognize truth from lies?
00:05:57.560
In the Catholic Church, we do have authorities.
00:06:01.320
You know, we are in a way the sort of spiritual children of our spiritual fathers.
00:06:07.100
First of all, our priests, our bishop, and then ultimately the Pope.
00:06:12.380
The Pope is not the head of the church by any means.
00:06:18.900
The Pope is obviously subservient, not only to Christ, but to all of his teachings.
00:06:25.320
So it's very easy to understand in light of a family.
00:06:30.420
And often the things in the church are very understandable by means of family.
00:06:36.660
In fact, when Christ was trying to explain to us the relationship between himself and
00:06:42.880
the church, he used that image of the family himself.
00:06:44.900
So St. Paul himself through his apostles, of course.
00:06:47.420
So St. Paul, when he's talking about the relationship of Christ to his church, gives
00:06:54.480
And so that familial imagery is very important.
00:06:58.640
And so here you can actually see how that imagery works very well.
00:07:03.540
So in the case, and you mentioned when there's corrupt leadership, corrupt authority, what
00:07:12.720
In a family when, and sadly, we've seen this a lot, when the father, the head of the family
00:07:22.620
Actions need to be taken because he is the rightful authority in the family.
00:07:27.480
Normally, the person to whom wife would go and children would go for children, especially
00:07:35.020
for authority and wife for consultation and help and the wife being a help to the husband.
00:07:39.480
So all of that in a normal circumstance works perfectly well.
00:07:43.260
That's what it's all aimed for, what it's all about.
00:07:46.300
And so normally in the church, the faithful can look to their priest, to their bishop, to
00:07:54.980
In fact, the job of the Pope as laid out by Christ to St. Peter was confirm your brothers
00:08:06.140
We do have an abusive situation right now where massive division and confusion is coming
00:08:15.780
And that sort of brings us to this situation where we have in the world abusive fathers.
00:08:23.680
Well, sometimes the children in the family, when they're old enough, or the spouse, the
00:08:30.180
wife, needs to bring that truth, needs to bring that fact that the abuse is going on out to
00:08:39.660
The children, maybe older children, need to protect their younger siblings or even their
00:08:46.180
They don't do that out of any kind of hatred for the dad.
00:08:49.880
If they're doing it properly, they don't do that out of hatred for the dad.
00:08:53.020
In fact, they're doing that out of love for the dad so that the dad doesn't see himself
00:08:58.400
lost in terms of the moral life, the eternal life.
00:09:02.680
They do that to protect the mom and the other siblings.
00:09:06.220
And so it really is an act of love, just like it's an act of love when parents need to correct
00:09:14.860
It's not comfortable for the child or comfortable for the parent for that matter.
00:09:18.340
But yet it has to be done out of responsibility and out of love.
00:09:24.780
We do have an authoritative structure set up by Christ that way on purpose, exactly the
00:09:33.140
And yet there can be these abusive situations, which are sad, but we have to deal with.
00:09:38.700
Ultimately, in terms of authority, the church has been very, very blessed, both with scripture
00:09:45.020
And so we can always look to scripture to see where we're at.
00:09:49.140
But the scriptures have to be interpreted properly in, uh, in the writings of St. Peter, in the
00:09:54.580
scriptures, we learned that some of the writings of St. Paul can be interpreted to people's
00:10:04.120
And so you can see all through the history of the church, the teachings haven't changed.
00:10:08.980
And that's really, really key because we know there was a lot of fooling around in
00:10:14.380
the church that didn't just start, you know, in the last seven years with Pope Francis.
00:10:22.320
In fact, it probably started before the Second Vatican Council, but definitely at the time
00:10:27.100
of the council, there was a lot of consternation.
00:10:29.280
A lot of the same figures we see now manipulating the church, trying to steer her in a false direction,
00:10:35.000
Cardinal Casper and the Sangal and Mafia group, who we know about now, they were involved
00:10:41.140
in the Second Vatican Council and already trying there by their own admission to make mess of
00:10:47.040
And so we have, uh, you know, before the council, a very authoritative catechism, a writing, a
00:10:54.620
compilation of all of the teachings of the church that pertain even to this day in the
00:11:00.100
Roman catechism, in the catechism of the Council of Trent.
00:11:02.520
And I would encourage people to go have a look.
00:11:05.760
If you're wondering about what is the exact teaching of the church on a particular question,
00:11:12.780
We know with the 1992 catechism, uh, which by the way, was compiled with the help of Cardinal
00:11:20.760
Uh, in fact, uh, I was one of the earlier recipients of it.
00:11:23.320
And when we got it, uh, a while later, we had to have a correction.
00:11:27.240
Uh, interestingly, uh, one of the correction, uh, you were sent, uh, corrective pages, if you
00:11:33.360
Uh, but one of the questions was on homosexuality.
00:11:35.820
The very issue which Cardinal Sean Bourne is so plagued with now, you know, having these
00:11:41.620
homosexual activists come to his, to his cathedral church, wrapping his, um, the, um, pillars at
00:11:47.820
the cathedral in rainbow, uh, rainbows and things like this.
00:11:51.560
So I would very much encourage people if they're looking for solidity, uh, in terms of the teaching
00:11:57.280
of the faith, go check out the Roman catechism.
00:11:59.440
The next question is actually a good follow-up to that.
00:12:03.120
The question is from Bernadette, who is in England, and she asks, how can we proceed further
00:12:09.060
to enlighten our bishops when they fail to both recognize and address the serious issues
00:12:16.760
There's something really encouraging we can do.
00:12:18.560
First of all, the obvious answer is prayer and penance.
00:12:22.200
Remember our Lord said that, you know, some demons only, uh, leave with prayer and fasting.
00:12:28.420
And so fasting for your spiritual leaders, for your bishops, uh, for the Pope, uh, for their
00:12:35.460
conversion sometimes, uh, is, is really essential.
00:12:42.280
In addition to that, there's also practical things we can do.
00:12:46.060
So over the years of LifeSite, we've learned a number of things.
00:12:50.120
One of them is that, first of all, bishops, in addition to being the spiritual leadership
00:12:55.140
that they're supposed to be, uh, even if they're not acting the way they should, are also men.
00:13:00.640
And so men act on a number of things, just like we all do.
00:13:10.040
Um, and so if you're in a position or you know someone who's in a position who's good,
00:13:14.600
encourage them to befriend their priest or their bishop because they're men and they need
00:13:21.080
friends and they have friends and very often they're not good friends because the, the
00:13:26.600
powers that be on the other side, as our Lord said, often, you know, often the children
00:13:29.900
of this world are wiser, uh, than the children of light, but we've got to be as cunning as
00:13:38.260
And so to learn this truth that our spiritual leaders are also men and they also need companionship,
00:13:47.200
friendship, and friendships are often very, very influential.
00:13:54.240
Uh, laymen have led priests and bishops to do the right thing.
00:14:00.220
But, uh, very often you have this influence and it's incredible thing.
00:14:05.180
Bishops get backbones by some laymen who are so good, so holy, so influential in their lives.
00:14:13.520
There's also the issue of pressure and that's why at LifeSite, we have life petitions, we
00:14:19.040
have a voter voice campaigns, we encourage sometimes rallies and all sorts of demonstrations
00:14:27.940
And I'm going to give you an example that quote unquote worked, if you will.
00:14:32.420
Um, you know, we've had cases where bishops have done the wrong thing.
00:14:38.580
And even when they're not, uh, particularly good bishops, uh, when given the pressure,
00:14:45.560
uh, from the faithful, good pressure to do the right thing, they will acquiesce and do
00:14:52.320
Remember our Lord's example in the scriptures of the unjust judge who wouldn't act and wouldn't
00:14:59.060
act, but that persistent knock of the widow on his door drove him so crazy.
00:15:04.100
He finally gave in to do the right thing, not because he was wanting to do the right thing
00:15:11.820
And so, um, at LifeSite, we've had several campaigns where, um, even bishops have been,
00:15:23.880
I guess you could say, uh, to do the right thing, both by petition, by demonstrations,
00:15:30.380
We have to remember though, whenever we're doing this, it really doesn't help someone
00:15:36.260
to badger them in a way that is, um, insulting in a way that is, um, uh, you know, uh, trying
00:15:45.340
to cast them down because that actually serves the opposite purpose.
00:15:53.260
I'm never going to, you know, help these kinds of people.
00:15:55.340
But if we do it still creating pressure, but with a real charity, um, we're out there, let's
00:16:02.640
say, uh, on our knees in front of the Bishop's palace, uh, praying the rosary for the Bishop's
00:16:08.120
Uh, we're out there demanding for our children, the right to have catechetical teaching.
00:16:13.940
The, when we go and report on the sometimes horrific things that are being taught in Catholic
00:16:19.580
schools and therefore calling the Bishop to, uh, and or pastor, of course, this works for
00:16:25.340
pastors as well to account in a way that's charitable, but demonstrates their lack of
00:16:31.180
appreciation for our proper role as parents, uh, and our authority over our children's
00:16:35.680
education, um, these things work and sometimes can be very powerful.
00:16:41.040
Um, do you remember the Bishop who condemned the young man who was being confronted at the
00:16:48.900
There was, uh, there was a young man at the March for life and some, uh, native American
00:16:53.780
leader came and was banging a drum in his face.
00:16:56.000
And of course the media spun it to be, you know, the young man was, uh, all in the wrong.
00:17:00.940
Uh, and, uh, he was condemned by a couple of bishops publicly.
00:17:08.620
And then it was found out, oh, but he was the young man was the innocent party.
00:17:14.480
And it was actually the bullying action of that native American leader.
00:17:19.260
And then the bishops didn't apologize, except there was quite a bit of pressure applied to
00:17:27.000
one of the bishops who did in fact come out and apologize.
00:17:29.840
So we've had these incidences where pressure has been successful.
00:17:35.740
It was a pressure done that, uh, was done respectfully, uh, but it was done nonetheless.
00:17:42.220
And the Bishop's office got a lot of phone calls and he came out and did the right thing
00:17:47.460
And this is what we hope for because these men are our spiritual leaders.
00:17:52.980
We are trying to get them to do the right thing in Christ and we should be grateful.
00:17:58.100
One last thing on this, on this thing, because bishops are men as well, some people refer to
00:18:05.260
them as politicians and miters, but let's not go there.
00:18:08.000
But, you know, very often they hear from the faithful only when something is wrong.
00:18:17.680
And very often we forget when something good happens to tell our bishops how grateful we are.
00:18:26.740
We need to do that for our politicians too, but for the bishops who really need to do that.
00:18:31.040
So if your bishop, for instance, is during this time of COVID allowing communion on the
00:18:38.960
tongue still, please, please go out and say thank you because that, you know what?
00:18:44.640
If your bishop has stood up to defend Catholic education in a Catholic school and let's say
00:18:52.800
on life issue or the family issue, tell him thank you.
00:18:56.420
Very important things they need to hear when they do the right things because surely they
00:19:04.340
And again, it's about us taking up our proper role as the laity.
00:19:12.200
This is a political question, so we'll go into that vein for a second.
00:19:17.180
The question is from Linda in Richmond, Virginia.
00:19:20.780
Linda writes, what do you make of the recent election victories in Virginia and the future
00:19:33.620
And that was not only a shot in the arm for all of America, it's a shot in the arm internationally
00:19:41.520
to see basically the Biden agenda shot down in a very real way, not only in the governor's
00:19:50.340
election, but then also in the races around Virginia.
00:19:53.400
These are very powerful signals that really send a message to politicians generally, but
00:19:59.560
also to the public in that the faithful public who care about life and family and general American
00:20:12.500
And that's the thing, not to be discouraged, because I think really, had we seen something
00:20:19.340
go awry in Virginia, the deflation of the movement for life and family for morality would
00:20:28.960
But with this victory has come really a boost in the arm that I think a lot of people needed.
00:20:34.940
So it was a great joy to see, and I think it should inspire other states to go for it,
00:20:41.840
other political leaders to recognize, hey, wait a minute, sometimes they have these values
00:20:47.340
themselves and they feel, oh, I have to just go against that because there's no support
00:20:52.440
You know, people have talked a lot about a silent majority and whatnot, but what's going
00:20:58.820
on right now is threatening democracy as we know it, the whole, any kind of semblance
00:21:07.620
And there's a lot more people than you might think who are on side over this, including
00:21:14.540
people who have themselves been, you know, gotten the jab because they're still for freedom
00:21:20.400
for their relatives and friends who are being denied their jobs, who are being kicked out
00:21:30.900
Also, with regard to, you know, in Luden County in Virginia, you had this horrific thing going
00:21:41.180
There was sexual abuse by a male, of course, pretending to be a female.
00:21:45.500
Um, and then this was covered up in one school, transferred to another school, and then tried
00:21:57.220
Who would think that you would, could possibly cover up rape?
00:22:04.900
Everybody says, oh, it's the church that has done that forever.
00:22:09.760
Here we saw it go on in a public school over what?
00:22:18.520
And so honestly, I think that also had a, that was going on all during the elections.
00:22:24.480
And I think that has a major role as well, uh, in terms of the outcome.
00:22:28.000
So we've seen, in a way, a beating down of the agenda of this radical LGBT agenda, of this
00:22:37.920
radical anti-freedom, you know, vaccine agenda.
00:22:42.000
And, uh, it's, it's really brought a lot of hope.
00:22:44.900
This one comes to us from Teresa, who lives in the Bahamas.
00:22:49.200
Teresa writes, in my country, the Bahamas, our bishop has forbidden all priests to give holy
00:23:02.040
I believe it is wrong to take holy communion in the hand as our unconsecrated hands should
00:23:10.620
I have not received holy communion since February, although I attend daily mass, except for three
00:23:16.480
times when I had the opportunity to go to Florida on a short trip to attend mass there.
00:23:23.460
What would God's will be to continue to refrain from taking it on the hand or to take it as
00:23:32.360
So let me start saying I'm no theologian, but I can just tell you from my conversations with
00:23:38.680
Bishop Schneider and my own conviction that, you know, I don't feel in conscience I could
00:23:46.580
I agree with you with regard to unconsecrated hands.
00:23:53.060
We watch the priest hold the monstrance, which is the golden sort of receptacle that's used
00:24:01.480
to hold our Lord in the Eucharist when he's exposed in the Blessed Sacrament for adoration.
00:24:07.340
And we watch the priest put a covering over his hands to touch the monstrance.
00:24:14.260
And that's always very confusing nowadays, because if everybody can traipse up and receive
00:24:19.680
our Lord in the hand, then is it the gold maybe that we're thinking is so reverential
00:24:30.660
But such confusion happens when we start down these practices.
00:24:36.200
By the way, which were forbidden in the church?
00:24:38.720
Remember, in the early church, they forbade, I believe it was sometime around 400 or something
00:24:46.480
But anyway, they forbade communion in the hand for, what was it, like over a thousand years.
00:24:57.320
And if you listen to an interview I did with Bishop Schneider on the question, he was very,
00:25:03.240
very serious about wondering if, you know, all of what we're experiencing right now isn't
00:25:07.620
some kind of punishment for just such an abuse.
00:25:10.880
So no, I wouldn't receive Holy Communion in the hand.
00:25:14.800
Now, with regard to being in a particular place where it's sort of not allowed, application
00:25:21.080
can be made to priests because there is a higher law than the bishop's law.
00:25:26.700
So the bishop might have said no communion on the tongue, but that's a right reserved to
00:25:32.000
Catholics by the Roman Curia, which supersedes the bishop.
00:25:36.760
So you can't have a law that is from a lower court, let's say, that says, oh, I want to
00:25:45.340
So that ruling by the bishop is totally illegitimate, doesn't stand for anything.
00:25:49.880
So any good priest should be able to know that they can and should and must distribute
00:25:56.600
Holy Communion to those in a worthy state to receive on the tongue, as the church has always
00:26:03.120
And if you're looking for references on that, I actually did a blog post where I quoted
00:26:09.140
how the Vatican responded to just such a question, saying, no, the priest isn't bound to obey his
00:26:19.560
So going to talk to good priests, getting them that Vatican letter, which you can find
00:26:25.260
in my blog post on the question of receiving Holy Communion in the hand, knowing too that if you can
00:26:32.700
get to an SSPX church or of FSSP, where I think they do still allow communion on the tongue, but also
00:26:41.680
even Byzantine Rite and Ukrainian Rite churches where they actually give Holy Communion, they
00:26:49.760
can't give it on the hand because they give communion with intinction.
00:26:54.260
So they dip the body of our Lord into the precious blood and administer Holy Communion that way.
00:27:01.200
And those churches have and still continue to administer Holy Communion the only way they can
00:27:07.880
receive communion on the tongue or in the mouth, if you will. So you might want to go that route as
00:27:14.000
well, because those are legitimate ways to receive our Lord and Holy Communion, legitimate ways to
00:27:20.580
attend your Mass. And yeah, but I really, I really feel for you. I went through a little period here
00:27:28.260
where we were also not permitted. And it's a very great cross to bear, but one that you can bear in
00:27:34.800
love. And our Lord will provide for your spiritual sustenance with, you know, because you're doing
00:27:43.740
this for him out of reverence for him. And he being the loving God and father that he is, will bless you
00:27:50.480
for honoring him in this way. Think about it yourself. If your child came to you and, you know,
00:27:58.900
someone was demanding that, uh, in order to see you that, uh, he first, um, I don't know, uh, ripped
00:28:06.780
up a picture of you or, or spit on a picture of you or something. And you refused, um, and tried to
00:28:14.060
profess your love from out the window or whatever. Instead, you wouldn't resent that child for, uh,
00:28:21.800
not spitting on your image or whatever out of reverence for you. You would honor that child.
00:28:27.100
You would love that child. And it's the only thing I can think of with regard to our Lord.
00:28:32.120
He will honor you for that decision as painful as it is.
00:28:35.280
Thank you. And our final question is an interesting one to wrap us up for this week's segment. It's
00:28:42.200
from Mary Jo in Overland Park, Kansas. And she writes, I have a daughter that has been homeschooled
00:28:49.460
for all her life and went to a conservative college. Should a good Catholic date a Jewish man?
00:28:54.900
I think the, the scriptures are very clear. The church teaching is very clear and it comes from
00:29:00.080
the scriptures. It's, it's very obvious. Do not be unequally yoked. Um, and, uh, unequally yoked
00:29:06.700
obviously refers to, you know, marrying within your faith. And, um, it's very difficult. Dating
00:29:13.880
isn't something that, uh, the, the modern concept of dating isn't Christian at all. So the modern concept
00:29:20.820
of dating to, to, uh, God knows what is, you know, we should be doing dating or probably better called
00:29:30.280
courtship is it you, you date someone, you court someone who you have a possibility of marrying.
00:29:36.380
So, uh, these things are, are difficult for with young people. It's, it's hard to know what to do
00:29:42.980
properly. There's always the hope that people convert. Yes, that's true. But, uh, this is not a,
00:29:50.060
a good way to go. Um, and, uh, it, it's something that you really need to consider if your first and
00:29:57.180
foremost love is Christ and our, all of our other considerations, whatever they may be, even family
00:30:04.920
considerations are, have to be second. And to, uh, get into a relationship, an amorous relationship
00:30:13.320
with, with someone of a, of a different faith is a very dangerous road to go down for your own faith,
00:30:20.540
but also for the faith of your children. Um, and, um, it's not only not advisable, it's a very, um,
00:30:28.620
it's very precarious. Can you like a person? Yes. Can you encourage them to convert? Yes. By all means.
00:30:36.160
In fact, you're showing them true love when you try and present them with the fullness of the truth
00:30:39.900
and hopefully you can get there, but to enter into, uh, something more than a friendship before,
00:30:47.320
uh, a conversion is had is something that's very dangerous indeed.
00:30:50.860
