It does this through inspiring and accessible talks with great Catholic men who are living examples of what it means to be a Catholic man!

  • Catholics who no longer believe in America

    don’t give a fig about the ‘consent of the governed’ or ‘live and let live,’ two concepts that are in our country’s blood and soil.

    Anti-American Catholics believe in forcing their unpopular opinions onto the polity at large. Thank goodness the polity at large has had a bellyful of Prolife, Inc’s bullspit.

    The GOP will get right with women’s rights or never hold meaningful political power again. Tick tock!
