Joe tackles bad Protestant theology on the Cross and Psalm 22, rebutting those claiming that God the Father abandoned Jesus on the Cross. Some go so far as to call the Cross “the most obscene thing in all of creation.” Let’s test that against the Bible and see what the truth is…

Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer. My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? The haunting words that echo from the cross as our Lord suffers on Good Friday, they’re a powerful meditation for Holy Week. And as I mentioned in an earlier episode, Jesu...

Joe reviews the debate between David Wood and Alex O’Connor on the question “Did Jesus Claim to be God?”

Joe:

Welcome back to Shamless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and I wanted to review the recent debate between Alex O’Connor, cosmic Skeptic on YouTube and David Wood, who has Acts 17 ministries. So it’s a skeptic and agnostic, I believe atheist actually against a Christian, and the resolution is, did Jesus claim to be God? Now, longtime viewers of this channel may know I’ve actually reviewed another of Alex’s debates back when he debat...

Joe responds AGAIN to NeedGod.net’s misreading of Scripture in regards to Mary’s perpetual virginity. We hope this stands as an excellent example of why someone can’t just read the Bible for themselves and expect to interpret it correctly.

Joe:

Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and I hope that today’s rebuttal will stand as a shining example that the books of the Bible are written for us, but they’re not written to us. And then one of the most common ways people misunderstand the Bible is by assuming that they understand passag...

Today Joe reviews an informal debate he had with a former traditional catholic turned atheist on the sexual morality of Catholicism.

Joe:

Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and I got a fascinating invitation recently to sit down with a guy named Cade to talk about Catholic sexual ethics and gay marriage and trans stuff and all this stuff with a guy who at one point was a traditional Catholic and now is an atheist who is living a gay lifestyle. So his name’s Cade, sorry, I should have started with that guy named Cade. And I’m just going to let him...

Happy April Fools! Joe talks about the awesome (and also kind of hilarious) stories of 4 martyrs and how the Church responded to their great sacrifice.

Joe:

Joe-come back to pOpelESs ShAmeMeRY. I’m Will MEshiRE. And in honor of April Fool’s Day, I thought I’d share something a little bit lighter, although it’s paradoxically something a lot darker. The gallus humor of the Catholic church, our saints, and especially our martyrs are venerated and they’re highly honored. They’re brave in the face of evil. They had fortitude in the greatest of trials....

The Satanic Grotto are planning a Black Mass to be held at the state capitol on Friday March 28th. Joe thought this would be a good opportunity both to call for prayer and attendance of Mass that day, but also to show how satanism aping Catholicism specifically points to Catholicism being true.

Joe:

Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe, Heschmeyer, and today I want to try to draw good out of a bad situation. Now if you are from Kansas or nearby, and particularly if you’re a Catholic, there’s a good chance the bad situation I’m referring to on March 28th...

Joe tackles the misguided teaching of NeedGod.net on Mary’s perpetual virginity, citing evidence and prophecy from the Bible.

By simply taking an analytical look at the Gospels, and comparing that to what we know of Jewish marriage tradition and parental law, we can conclude that Mary promised herself as a virgin to the Lord for her entire life. Joe succinctly shows this through Scripture, and backs the position up with teachings from the earliest Christians and Old Testament prophecy.

It’s actually remarkable just how closely Andrew Tate’s philosophy aligns with old pagan ideas of masculinity. Today Joe examines how this compares to the perfected masculinity of Christ.

Transcript:

Joe:

Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and I want to offer a Christian take on Andrew Tate. More specifically, I want to propose a thesis that I haven’t heard anybody else make, namely that Tate is playing the role of something like a Pagan philosopher and that his ideas should be evaluated on those grounds. Now I realize that is not the popular way of un...

Joe explains one of the best evidences for Christianity being true by examining the parallels between Psalm 22 and The Passion.

Transcript:

Joe:

Welcome back to Shamlesss Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer. I want to talk about one of the most powerful lines in the whole Bible and how it’s connected to what I think might be the most incredible prophetic and detailed Old Testament account of the crucifixion. It’s the line where Jesus cries out from the cross, my God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Now, those words by themselves are terrifying in their implications. If Jesus is the ...

Today Joe highlights a growing problem with news consumption, and warns how it may be destroying your soul.

Transcript:

Joe:

Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer, and if you think that keeping up with news and politics right now is just overwhelming, well, good news. I guess you’re correct and you should know that some of that feeling of being overwhelmed that you’re experiencing is actually by design. Now, Steve Bannon, one of the masterminds behind President Trump’s first campaign, gave a fascinating interview back in 2019 where he talked about feeling...
