That definitely included movies set against or directly about, Christmas. In this free-wheeling conversation featuring brushes with fame and interconnectivity of actors who worked with the same directors, we hit many favorites and also some lesser-known Christmas movie nuggets.    Subscribe to this podcast, rate and review!

The award-winning Catholic ethicist joins me this week to talk about how he came to discover the evidence that Jorge Mario Bergoglio is our latest anti-pope (after several centuries), and why this conclusion can no longer be called fringe or rad trad in nature. After this interview, you will know:  The step-by-step journey taken by Hanley toward the full clarity of the evidence  The difference between the canonical crimes of the St. Gallen Mafia in the March 2013 Conclave and the Declaratio read by His Holiness on February 11, 2013 The difference between munus and ministerium and why it matters Which key word is missing from Benedict’s “abdication”  Why the evidence and its conclusion have nothing to do with sedevacantism The real meaning of antipope Clues that the Pope knows he created an Impeded See and is therefore the true office holder of the papacy What ordinary Catholics should and can do in light of this evidence  Resources Mentioned   Francis: The First Anti-Pope in Centuries?

#382: More Evidence that Benedict XVI is Pope —Matthew Hanley

Kyle Kemper is an entrepreneur, husband, and father. His mother Margaret (whose former husband was Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau) is also Justin Trudeau’s mother by her second husband Fred Kemper. This family connection to Justin gives Kyle Kemper a unique personal perspective on the tyrannical way his half-brother is governing Canada with police state tactics. The cryptocurrency guru (he founded and runs Swiss Key) has choice words for what has happened to his native land during the (planned, fake, oligarchic) Covid “crisis,” thanks in large part to Justin’s role as a sock puppet to powerful international interests.

David Torkington is a Spiritual Theologian, Author, Lecturer and Broadcaster who specializes in Prayer, Christian Spirituality and Mystical Theology. For the past fifty years he has been communicating to his audience his profound love of the traditional and authentic Mystical and Biblical Theology that has inspired all his writings on prayer. During his twelve year s as Director of a London Retreat and Conference Centre , followed by his tenure as the Dean of Studies at the Nation al Catholic Radio and Television Centre in London , he gained direct experience of the decline in the moral and spiritual life of the Church. After lecturing on Mystical theology at the invitation of the Angelicum, the Dominican University in Rome , he has spent the rest of his life trying to inspire Catholics with the truth. That is to return without delay to the profound contemplative spirituality bequeathed to the early Church by Jesus Christ himself and its development from St Paul , to St Teresa of Avila and St John of the Cross. He has written ten books on prayer and the spiritual life, some of which have been translated into thirteen languages.

#379: Unmasking Anthony Fauci—Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

Most books by Christians about the atheism v theism debate start with the reasonableness of faith. Popular radio host and author Eric Metaxas starts with the reasonableness of science as filled with evidential power for the existence of God as can be known by faith. His brand new book is titled Is Atheism Dead? And what a stemwinder it is. Truly thought-provoking stuff hiding in plain sight—evidence of intentional and intelligent design.    In this Episode You Will Learn  Why Metaxas decided to take the fight, so to speak, to the scientists The miraculous properties of water The staggering unlikelihood that the moon’s (small) size and distance to the sun (huge size) would line up as appearing to be the same dimensions as seen from earth The conversion to theism (at a bare minimum) of high profile atheists Jean Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, and Antony Flew Why atheists are often bitterly opposed to even the idea of God An array of incredibly fascinating facts hidden in nature that point to God as First Cause The difference between the God of the philosophers and the Father of Jesus Christ Reasons why faith is reasonable and not contrary to reason   FOLLOW ME   Telegram: https://t.me/patrickcoffinmedia Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realpatrickcoffin/ BitChute: https://bit.ly/3mWUXC6 Gab: https://gab.com/PatrickCoffin Brighteon: https://www.brighteon.com/channels/patrickcoffin Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/Patrickcoffin
