Eric and Dan team up to write APACT's official response to Pope Francis' Desiderio Desideravi... his excuse for Traditiones Custodes!

Take Your Foot Off My Neck!

Take Your Foot Off My Neck is a layman's response to the letter Pope Francis wrote, entitled Desiderio Desideravi (loosely translated: My Ernest Desire.) Pope Francis has made it his mission to put an end to the RIGID traditionalists who have come to love the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM), and won't embrace the banality of the Novus Order (New Mass).

What Is A Radical Catholic… What Is Too Religious?

This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric (The Ambassador of Common Sense) and Dan (The Ambassador Of Nonsense) discuss the idea that fanaticism or radicalism can or cannot apply to Christianity--or more specifically, to Catholicism. When God asks for everything, how can we give Him too much?

Is That Even Possible?

This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric (The Ambassador of Common Sense) and Dan (The Ambassador Of Nonsense) discuss a recent leaked video where women (mostly women) from the abortion industry discuss the barbaric aspects of abortion, openly and unapologetically, in a way that literally makes our stomachs church. Would we feel the same way if these sorts of evil things were being spoken by men? Is evil itself a more intrinsic part of men or women? And once someone has gone to 'the dark side', are men or women more likely to give themselves over completely to evil?

HOW BAD IS IT?

This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric (The Ambassador of Common Sense) and Dan (The Ambassador Of Nonsense) discuss some of the theories (and some of the facts) being tossed concerning the Maui Wild Fires. As Hawaii burns to the ground, it looks more and more like the incompetence of government officials is at fault… but is there something more? What's happening there now? Why can't burn victims get help? Is there really a busload of school children that are missing? And why did Alex Jones say the COVID lockdowns are returning?

Well Worth The Read

This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric (The Ambassador of Common Sense) and Dan (The Ambassador Of Nonsense) discuss the classic PKD short story, The Pre-persons. The work is a well written example of what happens when the lines we draw between good andf evil are so arbitrary. What does a human being become a person… and when is it okay to kill that person.

How Do We Treat Those Who Harm Our Loved Ones

This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric (The Ambassador of Common Sense) and Dan (The Ambassador Of Nonsense) discuss the difficult commandment that Jesus gave us--love thy enemy, do good to those who hurt you. But what if someone's hurting your children? What if they're leading them to hell? The Gospel isn't so clear on this.

They're Practically The Same

This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric (The Ambassador of Common Sense) and Dan (The Ambassador Of Nonsense) discuss the stories of temperature highs being reported more and more in the news.  Are these temperature hikes real?  Why are the numbers inflated?  What's next to come, as the governments use the same tactics to reduce climate change that they used to reduce COVID spread.  It's the same thing, all over again.  While the pandemic measures were bad, this could get worse.

Where's The Light

This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric (The Ambassador of Common Sense) and Dan (The Ambassador Of Nonsense) discuss the seeming hopelessness in a church that is disappearing… not to mention a world that hates real Christians more and more. Is all of this hopelessness really unprecedented? Let's look at history.

Were Any Of Them Worth Seeing?

This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric (The Ambassador of Common Sense) and Dan (The Ambassador Of Nonsense) discuss some of the more recent films that looked very promising to the traditional Catholic world--and kind of fell short.

Why Aren't They?

This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric (The Ambassador of Common Sense) and Dan (The Ambassador Of Nonsense) discuss the rebellious, anti-establishment attitude that was once granted to the rock-and-rollers, but should, by all that is good, belong to the traditional Catholic.
