    Are Catholic schools Catholic anymore?

    Send us Fan Mail In this week's episode I ask the uncomfortable but important questions about Catholic education. Is there an impossible tension in the current culture when we try to run Catholic schools within a secular curriculum? What does it mean for a school to be Catholic if only a minority of staff and pupils practice the faith? Should we close Catholic schools or reform them? Why are some parents opting for home education?  Support the show You can now support me on patreon.

    Is judgement to be avoided or embraced?

    Send us Fan Mail In this week's episode I ponder why modern culture abhors the notion of "judging others", acting as if personal choices have no moral value, even as it itself judges others harshly and shows no mercy whatsoever within a cancel culture.   Is judgement something to be avoided or embraced?  Support the show You can now support me on patreon.

    Jason Arday; symptom not cause of Cambridge's crisis

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode I show how Jason Arday is the most boring aspect of the tumult surrounding his appointment at Cambridge University.  The real villain is an intransigent modernist ideology that demands blind obedience and therefore destroys the very framework of adversarial thinking that enabled historic academia to flourish.  Cambridge University must return to its historic philosophy or be destroyed; a process that will require sacrificial levels of honesty, repentance and open mindedness.  Does Cambridge have the humility and intellectual ability to learn from its obvious mistakes? Or will it arrogantly double down on the unthinking ideology that now directs our metropolitan elites at terrible cost to itself?  Support the show You can now support me on patreon.

    Is Andy Burnham a Catholic or not?

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode I explore what is meant when people state that Andy Burnham is a Catholic. What do we make of the fact he publicly supports euthanasia and abortion even as people label him a member of Christ's Church? Is his baptism enough to grant inclusion? Is his undoubtedly Catholic background sufficient to make him one of our own? Does his public stance prohibit the label of Catholic now being applied to him?   Support the show You can now support me on patreon.

    Unity versus Truth: reflecting on the SSPX schism

    Send us Fan Mail In this week's episode I reflect on the schism that occurred when the SSPX took themselves out of communion with the Catholic Church when they consecrated new bishops without a papal mandate. Are they victims or aggressors? Do they merit our sympathy or criticism? Here is my take... Support the show You can now support me on patreon.

This reflection leads me to ponder the role of beauty in the world and in the faith and to consider how important the quest for beauty might be... Support the show You can now support me on patreon.
