Michael Voris on Practising Catholics in NZ

Michael Voris in Auckland, New Zealand, talking about the size of the Catholic population here and the small percentage of actual practising Catholics (15% of 15% of the population of NZ attend Mass every Sunday). He noticed that every session he had in Auckland, that more and more people came, and he put that down to preaching the Truth of the Faith. Truth is far more interesting than happy clappy kumbaya lemon meringue Catholicism. Yes, totally agree. Growing up, there the Faith to me became more and more bland. It's only my rediscovery of it recently that has shown that version to be a complete lie. No wonder there are so few practising Catholics in NZ. I wonder how many left out indifference and boredom? Or needing something more and going elsewhere to get it?

Catholic Lord of the Rings

Michael Voris in Auckland, talking about the Catholic background of the Lord of the Rings which is "an inventive myth about Catholic truths". What I found amazing was that Tolkien said that March 25th is the date when Frodo cast the ring into the fires; this is also the date of the Annunciation and is also considered the date of the death of Our Lord on the Cross - and the ring represents original sin. Woah! Sorry everyone, Michael is no longer here. If I'd known his itinerary last week, I would have posted it.

Michael Voris in Auckland

Michael Voris was in Auckland just recently (not sure if he's still there) when he recorded this YouTube video. He talks about the Catholic Church coming back to life as she has done many times before. It's not totally apparent now, but will seem very obvious soon. Soon, of course, could be ten years or so, but in the two thousand year history of the Church, that's nothing. Not that he gives a time-frame, that's my guesstimate, especially when it comes to the extremities of the world such as New Zealand.

Help for those struggling with overcoming masturbation. Well worth watching. It starts half a minute in, as there's an ad at the beginning.

Shut up socialists - Michael Voris in Spain for World Youth Day

Michael Voris begins his chat with the socialist protests in Spain against World Youth Day and the visit of the Holy Father. They say that Spain cannot afford such an extravagance in a period of economic downturn, as if the Government is paying for the event. Yet the Government of Spain is not paying, World Youth Day is entirely financed by attendees. Obviously truth does not matter to the opponents of the Catholic Church.
