If Bishop Sheen was truly in possession of heroic virtue, which is necessary in order for someone to eventually be canonized a saint, why did he once tell contracepting married couples on national television to ‘continue making love’ and ‘trust in the mercy of God?’
My latest for @IntegritasMag exposes this scandalous remark from Sheen on Robert Frost’s program in 1970:

@CrisisMag "That doesn't mean he was right about everything."
Dumb strawman.
People are worried about candidates actually having real heroic virtue, and secondarily miracles that cast no doubt - not that someone has to be right about everything.
Hope that helps, but probably won't.
You sat out the Midterms to "teach Republicans a lesson". They didn't learn anything.
The year is now 2031, the 2030 Midterms just concluded and the GOP flipped three Senate seats! Here's the problem...Democrats won the Senate in 2026. They abolished the filibuster, as there was no Sinema or Manchin to protect it this time, and blocked all of Trump's judges. Then, in 2028, they rode a sluggish economy back to the White House.
President Ocasio-Cortez made it a point to instantly pack the Supreme Court to 17 justices, overturning Roe v. Wade, gutting the First and Second Amendments, and more.
There was also another border surge of 10-20 million illegal aliens. Legal immigration has been doubled under the Immigration Act of 2027, a comprehensive expansion of the 1990 Act. The US became majority nonwhite under the 2030 census.
Then, as the Senate was deemed "racist" and "rooted in White Supremacy", they decided to vote on adding states to the Union as "reparations for nonwhite non-representation". This gave 2 seats each to American Samoa, Guam, the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and Washington, DC (but NOT evil white supremacist Northern Mariana Islands, because they vote Republican). They also split up California into three states, citing "efficiency" reasons they refused to explain.
They also passed a "gerrymandering ban", which led to "independent commissions" creating inexplicably gerrymandered maps that included 3 blue seats in Kentucky, and 4 in Missouri. Not to mention only a single red seat in Illinois.
The Senate rushed through single payer healthcare, which caused a massive tax hike in exchange for subpar DMV-run healthcare that leads to shortages and wait times.
Then, they passed through a blanket amnesty for 60+ million illegal aliens and other foreign visaholders. While they still cannot legally vote until 2036, they will make up 25% of the electorate when they do.
Despite all that, much of the 'retard right' continues to call President Ocasio-Cortez "the most America First President in history" because she cut all foreign aid to Israel and arrested Benjamin Netanyahu (who is now cellmates with former President Donald Trump in Riker's Island). While patriots are routinely censored once again, these grifters are not for some reason.
Even if Republicans manage to win the 2032 presidential election in most key swing states, as some polls have them doing, it is unclear if they will be able to win it by enough to overcome the additional states in the electoral college. But even if they do, it is unclear at this point if a GOP victory would be certified. JD Vance has already been arrested, and Marco Rubio has been deported to Cuba for hate speech (the only deportation of her term since ICE was abolished in early 2027), leading many to speculate who the next man up in the GOP would be.
Guys, don't let this happen, because it will. Get the fuck out and vote.
@cnalive Life and ministry?
Are they gonna invite people to break the first commandment, pray to saints to protect false religions, or have pagan rituals performed on them like your pseudo-saint JPII did?
It's the logical thing to do, after all.
@poperespecter1 Muller is wrong, but so are you:
Pope Francis's decree giving SSPX valid confessions is higher than the DDF's note, which has no binding force.
Ergo, they have valid confessions.
@ModernBoethius "We do not set above the authority of the Pope"
Exactly.
Pope Francis's decree is higher than the DDF's note which has no binding force. Ergo, they have valid confessions.
@NCRegister You can't just say "schism" without actual fulfillment of the theological definition, which the SSPX has never achieved (excommunication does not automatically entail a schism).
Regardless of JPII's opinion or the DDF's non-binding note - they have to prove there is a schism.
