Please, this sermon deserve's a whole Rosary for this priest and Sensus Fidelium. I am from the Netherlands and this sermon is vital for the salvation of souls in Holland as its become like Sodom. The Catholics are so far away from the truth that we need more than a miracle but we will get there through the blessed Mother and our ancestors prayed for the people of this time and many martyers.
Rockie Overlunde agreed! I teach CCD and we have a class of 30 kids. All 6th-10th grade. All of them getting their first communion. My children are the only ones in the entire church that do continuous religious education. When I was young..it was not a choice. Not that race means anything...but in the class of 30... My daughter is the only white kid. Why? That's my question... I know Catholics who would rather have their kids in sports then take time for CCD and communion or confirmation. We need prayers!!! They took out the part in the creed where it says he descended into hell and our teaching materal has removed it as well. Why?? God we need you!
I do believe that God is using the "Sensus Fidelium" and its preachers to bringing Catholics into Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church founded by Jesus Christ Himself. Myself I have learned a lot from this website, the Sensus Fidelium TH-cam Channel. May God continue to bless and guide His Sacred Servants in this Catholic TH-cam Channel. Amen!
I'm so glad I saw this video I was minutes away from ordering YouCat I am a CCD teacher in New York westchester area. This video could not be a coincidence. I ask you all pray for me for we need to catechist more then ever Big and small
I am a priest of 40 years. When I was in seminary in the 1970s early 80s, it was as if the Church started in 1966. I was so glad years later that before my return to the Church I graduated from a biblical based Bible College. If it wasn't for that foundation, I would have lost my faith. Accepting Holy Scripture as True, Literal and all inspired, is the basis of Catholic Truth.
In this 2019 of month of May, in my early 50's I definitely recall the Baltimore Catechism, and I owe my parents the world for sending me to parochial school. It's just like yesterday I recall it being taught to me, remembered in memory, its picture drawings, and explained by my teacher an excellent nun. So blessed in fact from 1st grade to 8th they were all nuns and 2 brothers. Long live God and his Holy Spirit who speaks the truth through this blessed priest in this talk.
Jacki nappy my granddaughter age 10 was in class and the teacher said "there is no hell" my granddaughter said "Miss hell is a place" then teacher got a bit heated and my granddaughter said to her I know there is a hell because we pray every day at home.She told her mum who told her she was proud of her for standing up for the faith,she also said I don't like my teachers ideas, her mum told her to pray for her teacher.
Well, if this a secular school, I don't believe there should've even been that conversation. But at a Catholic or Christian school? That would make more sense.
God bless this dear priest, one of the few who is actually alive and does not call Genesis a myth. If Genesis is a myth then the Sabbath has no meaning and the Lord has deceived us. THis is impossible.
By far....... the best Priest I have ever listened to. Amazing how so many people contradict the Church and claim to be members of it. Such Heresy and Hypocrisy reigning today. God does not bend to Majority Opinions. God is Mercy of course, but also Justice and his word is final. Man is not God. God does not need mans approval. God is "I AM WHO I AM". Exodus 3 : 14 Moses as the author of the entire Pentateuch, including Genesis. Was not corrected by Jesus Christ when the word became flesh and dwelt amung us, instead our Lord says...... "If you had believed Moses, you would believe Me, because he wrote about Me. But since you do not believe what he wrote, how will you believe what I say?" John 5 : 46 "Then Abraham said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone rises from the dead.’” Luke 16 : 31
Michael Murray, I agree the damage done by the "Princes " of the Church is horrific . It confuses the faithful,plants doubt in the mind ,especially of those who do not understand or have a solid foundation in the knowledge and truth of Mother Church. I am in the process of conversion from Baptist to Catholic. For 2 years I have been studying and listening to homilies etc. It is not only confusing it is almost impossible to reconcile. The devil on my shoulder ( so to say) is in red with a pitchfork on my left and in red with staff on my right. Sadly, from my own personal perspective while the Roman Catholic Church has not 30,000 and upwards denominations as the Protestant sects have, it has a similar interior discord. It isn't that one parish may differ a bit in it'd delivery due to the personal disposition of the Priests, one Catholic church can be as un-Catholic as any Unitarian facility. That is a bitter pill. A very dangerous one . For if your Shepherd(s) watches not his flock or deliberately in his pride leads them astray,what is to become of them? if you do not know of the correct and true teaching of the Faith, putting your faith for the correct and " what has always been taught in all times in all places" it has its authoritarian Shepherds spewing heresy and,or supporting it. What is to be done? How do I, know what is correct? To that point and end, I am most grateful for the plethora of consistency,constancy of Catholic truth presented herein. Thank you for hearing me. Please pray for me through my conversion, that error will not be my stumbling block. May God bless you and may Our Blessed Mother Mary comfort and guide you always to her son.
@@novellanurney1294 The key is 'Tradition' , 'Scripture; and 'Patrimony of the Saints'. When all these agree, you know that you have unbiased truth, in conformity with the Apostles themselves and our Lord Jesus Christ. What is confusing is when those who are supposed to be upholding these three pillars do not, and turn themselves into hypocrites. But nevertheless Jesus Christ is always present in the most Holy Eucharist, and that precious sacrament IS Jesus, no matter the Priest, when the red lamp is lit.... Jesus Christ resides fully in the Tabernacle. If I walk into a Church and I can't find the Tabernacle, or Jesus Christ on the Cross... I just turn around and walk out, because without Jesus it ain't Catholic. I think Jesus is giving the whole world a taste of that confusion and bitterness He experienced in Gethsemane, especially when the enemy was showing our Lord just how many souls would reject Him, regardless of the tremendous sacrifice our Lord was about to make on Calvary. A good prophecy to read is 'Our Lady of Good Success' in Ecuador about 500 years ago pertaining to this age. Explains it all way better than I ever could, and it is a tremendous grace from our Lady. I highly recommend this video that is played during a Eucharistic Conference called 'The Eucharist, In Communion With Me.' th-cam.com/video/d5zAShY9ZUM/w-d-xo.html
Praise to the Trinity, I think God for this priest, so conformed to the will of the Father, that the Holy Spirit speaks this truth through Holy priest's
KMF , third. It is one of the major factors in my ongoing conversion from Baptist to Catholic. Thank the Lord my God , that I have access to such truthful and useful information from which I can use as a springboard to other homilies, texts, devotions etc., as well as come in contact with other persons that are willing to assist me through this transformation.
Thank you Father ,Outstanding sermon .I thank you for not conforming , preaching the real Roman Catholic Catholicism. I am who I am due to my strict religiosity training by Saint Joesph Nuns ,also a strong religious foundation , the example set All my life .My Mother attended five o’clock mass every day . Amen
Even today, there is a lot of "Let your conscience be your guide..." - This is of course, garbage, considering most of us have a poorly formed conscience (which is why we pick up a catechism in the first place - To form something that we need to know!) - Why do we not hear the USCCB having a list of "condemned readings" ??? The USCCB appears all too concerned about the death penalty, immigration (of Hispanics only), and other social justice concerns on earth.
Thank you for your videos. As a practicing Roman Catholic, weekly communicant, avid Thomist and former graduate level academic I would respectfully put forth the following rebuttals: 1. It is well known hard, historical fact that neither Blessed St. Augustine or Blessed Thomas Aquinas believed in a literal 6 day creation narrative nor a literal interpretation of scripture. Read the Summa and read Augustine’s commentaries on genesis. I don’t know what ancient church fathers he is referring two, but the two big heavy weights definitely were not in his camp, and rather than “ rendering their garments” would probably tell him to calm down at very least. 2. The social gospel is every-bit as crucial to the life of Faith as the more internal/traditionalist variety pushed by the priest above ( I’m assuming it is Fr. Chad R.) As the epistle of St. James teaches, faith without works is dead. For that very reason, many hardline/traditionalist strands of the church in being divorced from the social gospel become OBSESSED with a petty and fear based quantitative and self righteous morality that our brothers and sisters in the eastern tradition refer to as “ the sins of the left hand” ( aka presumption).a brittle, “ “sky is falling” theology develops instead of a true and thriving faith as result. In the same way true and perfect love drives out all fear as the Sacred Scriptures teach, true and perfect fear drives out all love. 3. I very much appreciate Fr. Chad’s talks on exorcism and his decrying the heresy of “ charasmatic” Christianity particular its infection of more conservative strands of the church. While he has my prayers, I wish him and more “traditionalist/conservative” elements of the church for lack of a better word, would use the same zeal and moral out cry they have against secular culture and turn internally and call for the immediate excommunication and criminal incarceration of the countless pedophile priests who have blasphemed their office the Holy Church of God and committed unspeakable crimes and sins against not only children and their families, but Holy God himself. Moreover, I wish they would zealously cry for the immediate excommunication and incarceration of the Bishops who enabled and protected such crimes. That is the greatest moral crisis the church is currently facing in the modern church and it has not been addressed.
I am a seminarian from the philippines and I would like this lecture to be read by as many seminarians as possible. where can I find a transcribed copy of this lecture?
Kabayan, i contunually pray for more priestly vocations. May the Good Lord grant you the strength and guidance to continue on. Wee need good priest, bishops and popes. Holy Mother help us, amen.
Under the torture of Exorcism, Nero - one of the demons possessing Anneliese Michel (d.1976) - said, "The Dutch bishops are heretics." The YouCat was authored by Cardinal Christoph Schönborn, O.P.
many pseudo theologians say faith cannot go against science, they are ignorant not just of Faith and principles of faith, but also very ignorant of science and its principles, going along with the pseudo scientists who can not answer questions, filling their books with mere new age opinions.
Scientific views do contradict Catholic doctrine whenever they claim events that did not happen or attribute power to nature that it does not have. And science operates on a false point of view to begin with - naturalism.
It is really intolerable for you to make such claims. Truth (God) cannot contradict scientific truth. You don't know what you are talking about. This has nothing to do with New Age beliefs.
@@michaelk969 Truth is truth, but d' Lourdes is referring to bigoted scientists who try to prove their presuppositions rather than seek truth. And that is, sadly, the majority. They do not want ridicule, and to lose their well-paid positions. You are right it is nothing to do with New Age in the normal sense of the word. The phrase also jars with me, but I suppose d' Lourdes means it more like 'modern times'.
Amazing sermon, I never thought about the Big Bang theory as destruction, see that’s why our priests need our respect and prayers. They give us the perspective that the world cannot give.
The priest is ignorant of the Big Bang theory and is dismissing something he does not understand. Don't listen to a theoretical physicist with no theological training to explain Divine Revelation and don't listen to a priest with no training as a physicist to explain physical theories of the universe.
Utube had this video labeled deleted. If I had not "clicked" on it, I wouldn't have known it was here. I don't know if you can complain to utube or if it's worth the danger it might bring. Tyat said, Fr. Repperger this is a fantastic video and summarizes some issues I've been worried about since Vatican II. My faith is precious to me.
Pope Francis needs them. Fr. Rippergder and Fr. Mitch Pacwa are a good pair: one ( Fr. Ripperger) to explain the traditional Tredentine; and the other( Dr. Pacwa) a moderate modern biblical theologian. Pope Francis ( who is looked upon as out of line modernist) is surely in need of them.
The Catholic Family Connections Bible by Saint Mary's press ( new American Bible) threw me off completely as I had my 12 year old son ... now 15 read genesis 1:18 on the creation and the "Did you know?" Commentary... says "Genesis was written not as a science article but as a series of symbolic stories, sometimes called mythic stories, that convey great moral and spiritual truths." This paragraph made me think that The creation story was symbolic and not true! Now my son is totally confused on creation! Please help!😫
AmericaNeedsFatima Douay Rheims bible, along with Haydock commmentaries (you can find the commentary for free online - the commentary uses Church Fathers and writings of the saints - you. cannot. go. wrong. on. his. commentary). Noah's ark is actually doable and not at all hard to do (by the grace of God, of course). The Genesis happened.
Simply tell him the Holy bible is the Truth and there are a lot of fault teaching around us. Most importantly learn the faith ourselves in order to teach them and pray rosary Daily! We have reciting rosary over a year now, two good daughters, two of the best. Do get rid of all Disney stuff, dont allow Disney's products into your home and listen to as many videos from this chanel as possible. May God bless you and your family
From the copyright page of the English translation of the YOUCAT, word for word, line for line: "Nihil Obstat, March 3, 2010 Austrian Bishops' Conference Imprimatur, Austrian Bishops' Conference with the approval of the German Bishops' Conference, November 29, 2010; the Swiss Bishops' Conference, December 6, 2010 with the prior approval of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, the Congregation for the Clergy, and the Pontifical Congregation for the Laity." Here is assurance that the text contains nothing contradicting the Catholic faith, and the approval for distribution among the Catholic faithful. Not only that, there is a four page forward by Pope (now Emeritus) Benedict XVI RECCOMENDING the YOUCAT. The text itself states in the "Instructions for Use" (found on the same page as the afore mentioned Nihil Obstat and Imprimatur): "The Youth Catechism, which is written in language suitable for young people, deals with the entire Catholic faith as it was presented in the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC of 1997), without aiming, however, at the completeness provided in that volume." The YOUCAT is not meant to provide detailed, comprehensive information. Rather, it is meant to attract the frankly disengaged youth of today to the applicability of the truth they don't know they desire. If bright illustrations and simplified language, free of heresy, are necessary to do that, so be it. The YOUCAT is much more accurately described as being an antidote to the horrific religious texts of the day than being one among them.
I'm very disappointed with the YouCat. It was started during St JPII and completed under Benedict XVI. Both of these popes were great scholars in theology and Scripture. I have to say, though, I have only read the 1997 CCC (promulgated by JPII).
Great presentation of the truth about the Catholic Church ; we need to get back to the basic old tradition of worship before Vatican 11.We have to stop following the world and return to God in Christ Jesus under the umbrella of traditional Catholic. Thanks
Let's see what pope Pius XII has to say about this: "The teaching authority of the Church does not forbid that, in conformity with the present state of human sciences and sacred theology, research and discussions . . . take place with regard to the doctrine of evolution, in as far as it inquires into the origin of the human body as coming from pre-existent and living matter-[but] the Catholic faith obliges us to hold that souls are immediately created by God" (Pius XII, Humani Generis 36) Therefore our bodies may have been developed through evolution, but our souls are immediately created by God.
Hi Samuel Saad. Let's also see what pope Pius XII wrote in the rest of paragraph 36 of Humani Generis (w2.vatican.va/content/pius-xii/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-xii_enc_12081950_humani-generis.html): "However, this must be done in such a way that the reasons for both opinions, that is, those favorable and those unfavorable to evolution, be weighed and judged with the necessary seriousness, moderation and measure, and provided that all are prepared to submit to the judgment of the Church, to whom Christ has given the mission of interpreting authentically the Sacred Scriptures and of defending the dogmas of faith. Some however, rashly transgress this liberty of discussion, when they act as if the origin of the human body from pre-existing and living matter were already completely certain and proved by the facts which have been discovered up to now and by reasoning on those facts, and as if there were nothing in the sources of divine revelation which demands the greatest moderation and caution in this question." So research and discuss, don't act as if evolution has been proved. Please check out the scientific and philosophical articles on www.kolbecenter.org, the Kolbe Center for the Study of Creation. God bless you, greetings from Jasper
Samuel, Pius XII did not suggest that the human body may have been developed through, he only permitted Catholics to research and discuss evolution theory, on condition that both those who favor and oppose it are involved in the discussion. The Church teaches that God creates the body and soul together and immediately.
Samuel Saad I feel compelled as a retired MD and educator and cradle catholic who Thru a personal supernatural revelation have realized that - The pure irreversible and absolute truth of our Catholic faith is the only way to heaven But as a scientist I feel obligated also to remind everyone that the social sciences are mostly based false premises and conclusions about mans psychological growth and true inner nature especially evolution! Modernism has created false sciences from anthropology to sociology to most behavioral sciences. Many supposedly proven experiments in many texts that are seen as verbatim by students cannot be repeated and thus are false and are destroying our youth! There is no doubt in my mind that we are nearing the apocalypse! Most young adults can not discern the truth nor even attempt to doubt anything as I believe greed atheism and a lack of integrity has become their God ! We are living the result of 80 years of lies in almost every realm of study especially in political science that were designed to undermine future generations and make them lemmings beholding and trusting only a government filled with hatred of all Christians!
al nice conspiracy theories I somehow doubt you were a scientist... The only thing based on false premises and lies is the cult of pedophiles you ignore all facts to worship
Start to learn about the order within our church. Vatican 2 is after Holy Mother warned us that evil had got into our church. churchmilitant. com is good source. keep listening to all videos from this chanel.

Only the 1st edition of the Baltimore catechism is orthodox, new versions teach "invincible ignorance" and baptism of desire. The Penny Catechism is simple, and orthodox giving you all the basics of the faith. I'm waiting for my copy of the catechism of the council of trent.
listening to all videos on this chanel would be a good start. Pray rosary daily and ask Holy Mother & Jesus to grant you the truth. Go to confession! God bless.
I do have a question about genesis. Who were the other people on the planet that Cain was exiled to and had a family with and where did they come from? Have always wondered that.
other people who were not recorded in the bible. a couple can have lots kids, especially when they can live for hundreds years and were the best first human that God Himself made in his alike.
The following is from Fundamentals of Catholic Dogma by Dr. Ludwig Ott, "In order to solve the difficulties deriving from the apparent contradiction between the results of natural science and the Biblical narrative of the Creation the following general principles are to be observed: a) Even though all Holy Writ is inspired and is the Word of God, still, following St. Thomas, a distinction must be made between that which is inspired per se, and that which is inspired per accidens. As the truths of Revelation laid down in Holy Writ are designed to serve the end of religious and moral teaching, inspiration per se extends only to the religious and moral truths. The profane facts of natural science and history contained in Holy Writ are not inspired per se, but only per accidens, that is, by virtue of their relation to the religious-moral truths. The data inspired per accidens is also the Word of God, and consequently without error. However, the hagiographers in profane things make use of a popular, that is, non-scientific form of exposition suitable to the mental perception of their times, a more liberal interpretation, is possible here. The Church gives no positive decisions in regard to purely scientific questions, but limits itself to rejecting errors which endanger the faith. Further, in these scientific matters there is no value in a consensus of the Fathers since they are not here acting as witnesses of the Faith, but merely as private scientists. b) Since the findings of reason and the supernatural knowledge of Faith go back to the same source, namely to God, there can never be a real contradiction between the certain discoveries of the profane sciences and the Word of God properly understood." “The doctrine of evolution based on the theistic conception of the world, which traces matter and life to God’s causality and assumes that organic being, developed from originally created seed-powers (St. Augustine) or from stem-forms (doctrine of descent), according to God’s plan, is compatible with the doctrine of Revelation. However, as regards MAN, a special creation by God is demanded, which must extend at least to the spiritual soul. Individual Fathers, especially St. Augustine, accepted a certain development of living creatures. Proceeding from the assumption that God created everything at one time, they taught that God brought a certain part of His creatures into a finished state, while He created others in a form of primitive seeds from which they were gradually to develop.”
As an orthodox Catholic and physicist I am truly disappointed in this video. It is crucial to always remember that science, which is based on empirical evidence and reason, can never be in conflict with Divine Revelation. Science uncovers the truths of the natural universe, created by God, and so it can never be in conflict with Divine Truth who is God. This priest discusses disparate topics that each deserve their own careful treatment (heretical catechisms, evolution, big bang theory). First of all, the fact that there are heretical texts, such as the Dutch catechism that should have never promulgated, is a valid point. Modernism often seeps into such catechisms. He could have elaborated on this point more and come up with a solid talk. However, the priest has no competency at all to discuss the details of the Theory of Evolution and the Big Bang theory as scientific theories . He is absolutely mistaken in saying that the Big Bang theory is simply the Theory of Evolution applied to the universe at large. Both theories are based on evidence and the amount of evidence supporting the Big Bang theory is enormous. There is no relationship whatsoever between the two theories! The evidence for the theory of evolution, I believe, is considerably weaker. One thing that will confuse the layman (and seems to have confused him) is that in common language, the word "theory" is used for a set of ideas that explain something but which is presumed to have no supporting evidence. In the sciences, this is not at all the connotation of the word. In the sciences every theory must be tested by experiment, and if a single instance is found, in which the theory's predictions are false then the theory is deemed false. Scientific theories are never proven, they can only be dis-proven. Hence when scientists believe a theory to be correct it is because numerous different tests of the theory have been performed and no violations have been discovered. We believe it is true with a high probability. He failed to mention that when physicist Fr. Georges Lemaitre proposed the Big Bang theory as an explanation of the observed expansion of the galaxies measured by Hubble, most of the resistance of the scientific community was because his theory would imply that the universe had an initial instant of creation (from nothing). Once the microwave background radiation was accidentally found and the temperature of its source was measured, scientists started to become convinced that his theory was true. Yes, the Big Bang theory (and its experimental measurements!!) point to the fact that the universe has a finite age (which has been measured); it is not infinitely old as was previously assumed. Hence, the Big Bang theory actually supports one of the main points of the Biblical Genesis narrative which is that God created the universe from nothing at some FINITE time in the past. This is the exact opposite of what he is claiming, which is that Genesis is factually correct and the Big Bang theory is factually incorrect. Genesis was not meant to be a scientific treatment of how the Universe came into being and evolved. One of the fundamental principles of scriptural exegesis is to always interpret each book according to the literary form that was intended by the human author. Genesis was not meant to be a history book, in spite of the fact that it contains some historical facts, nor was Genesis meant to be a scientific book even though it contains some scientific truths. Truly, each of us, and certainly this priest, needs to be humble enough to admit when subject matter is beyond their competence. If he wants to discuss scientific theories and examine their impact on Divine Revelation he needs to study the scientific theories extensively. He knows some theology but very little science. Otherwise he will make the same mistake that our for-fathers made which was to believe that scientific statements contradict theological beliefs (cf. the theory of Galileo and the Heliocentric theory of Copernicus).
You are right in many things. Case for evolution is weak. Actually it is non-existent. Big Bang - how did something arise out of nothing? If a tiny, extremely heavy dot exploded, that means that there was someting before the bang, doesn't it? Science is ever developing. Today we know that the speed of light is not constant, and there are other possible explanations for redshift. In other words, we don't actually know anything - it is all theories. Some theories have better support than others, that is all. And I agree that we have to go on that, but with the humility required. Luckily, our salvation does not depend on our understanding of science! 'My people perish for lack of knowledge.' This is where we should focus, perhaps. What knowledge? 1) Knowledge of the nature of God. Theology, in other words. 2) Understanding of how the enemy works. This comes in several streams: > a) temptation > b) false spirituality (serious heresy; satanism and the occult; demonic religion such as hinduism and islam). The New Age also comes in here, descended from Theosophical Society (started by Masons), the Lucis Trust, and influenced by the occultist Alester Crowley. > c) the quest of the antichrist for would domination and destruction of all Churches. This is beginning to show openly, such as the word ZION emblazoned in logos of the Olympic Games. It is too big a subject to list in detail here, but involves secret societies (Cabbala, Knights Templar, Masonry, Illuminati, the Skull and Bones and probably Zionism) and clandestine plans by less secret groups (the Communist International, the UN, the Trilateral Commision, the Federal Reserve Bank - which, despite the intentionally misleading name, is privately owned - and a plethora of NGO's), private people (like the Rothschilds, Bill Gates and George Soros), and internet censorship (by Google, TH-cam, FaceBook and so on). Excuse me for quoting myself from above, > I don't think that believing in evolution will separate you from Grace and from the love of God. Nonetheless, I don't believe in evolution any more. No intermediate state between two species has ever been found in the fossil records. NOT ONE! A few cases of recorded changes, like the horse going from five toes to walking on one, are not evolution, but the opposite: a loss of something. All the things the scientists say favour the idea of evolution can be taken apart. For instance, they say that the giraffe developed its long neck so it could reach leaves in tall trees. Sounds plausibe, doesn't it? But why is the female shorter than the male? How did she survive? Why did no other African mammal grow in height? Research the subject with an pen mind, and you will find. Bacteria 'develop' immunity to antibiotics. NO! What happens is that the few bacteria that happen to have immunity survive and multiply, and it LOOKS LIKE immunity has developed. > Scientists love to talk about stages between apes and men. Many of these ostensible 'stages' have already been consigned to the scrapheap: they were either apes, or men, but not something in between. I believe the few remaining finds will go the same way one day. > In any case, there's a real difference between us and the apes: God breathed on us and gave us Spirit. In that sense it doesn't really matter if God reused the physical material of an ape. But there's no need to believe that He did. Similarity of design does not prove descent. As a poor simili: look at the various designs from the hand of an architect or a car designer. The similarity can be striking - in most cases is. But that is because the designer has found a pattern that works. Same with God. Actually, there are some oddities among species that do not fit with evolution at all. Feathers. Marsupials. Spiders (8 legs, whereas insects have 6). Squids. Mammals compared to egg-layers. There is also the fact that almost all bar one of the main phyla (main categories) of life occurred during what is termed the 'Cambrian explosion'. If evolution were a fact, that would not be the case. Only the creation 'days' are not literal. The sun and moon were not created in day one - so clearly we are not talking about 24 hour days. Best regards, God Bless
Two of the greatest fallacies of self deceived scientists: Neglecting His control (through our souls) of what we observe/measure/perceive. Assuming time, also His creation, shall follow linearly simply because it was observed so in the recent past. By the way, who are we to command God how to do things (at best, we are allowed to pray our desires).
The priest is not quoting the Youcat accurately. Here is correct text lifted out directly & unadulterated. "How can Sacred Scripture be 'truth' if not everything in it is right? The Bible is not meant to convey precise historical information or scientific findings to us. Moreover the authors were children of their time. Their forms of expression are influenced by the sometimes inadequate cultural images of the world around them. Nevertheless, everything that man must know about God and the way of his salvation is found with infallible certainty in Sacred Scripture."
To deny the absolute nature of scripture is to deny divine inspiration, which is clearly heretical and blasphemous. What does "historical precision" (what a joke of a concept, history is itself the least precise of all the social sciences) or science (a construct of empiricism that has no relevance to history or the miraculous, although current paradigms are largely unempirical indirect patchwork constructs of what is in reality guesswork and supposition meant to "best fit what appears to be correct") have to do with the Word of God?
Like the CCC, the "Youcat" has undergone editorial revision since its original publication. Father quoted the original version (link follows) correctly. schools.alcdsb.on.ca/teachers/bradynic/HRE%204M1%2012M%20Handouts/YOUCAT%20-%20Schoenborn,%20Christoph%20Cardinal.htm
Jeff Hunt TheTableReader Thanks for bringing this point up. I wasn't aware of the earlier edition. I agree the original answer was awfully contradictory & confusing.
I always have my doubts with flashy stuff. The more dust the book has, the better. ;D I mean, why bother yourself with some condensed version of Catechism or the Sacred Scripture like YOUCAT is offering you? I am 24 years old, God gave me an active mind and hungry soul, longing for Him. Would you try to know more about your lover through little condensed pieces and summaries or would you try to know as much as you can so you can love Him even more? One note, tho. And it is a brotherly warning. Studying the catechism without the prayer - forget it. Don't even try. Adoration, Holy Communion, confession and constancy in religious life - otherwise the almighty and living God will be an idea, and not the Most Holy Trinity - 3 Divine Persons, 1 God.
Balken Kreuz Catechism of the Catholic Church. Cardinal Arinze reads and meditates on two pages of the CCC daily and he is very, very orthodox. Pope Benedict XVI also recommends it and JPII put a shining sentence at the beggining of the CCC saying it is a sure norm of teaching the faith. Along with resources this holy priest recommended, Denzinger is also a must. Fr. Hardon audio and video lectures are orthodox to the core (hate using the word orthodox - you cannot be but orthodox Catholic. Not being orthodox ceases the state of being Catholic).

The Penny Catechism is short and sweet, but covers everything and is orthodox. Perfect for teaching children and is cheap. Also the Catechism of St. Pope Pius X is great and easy to read as well and is orthodox.
R talk with your priest or at least go to confession and mention these feelings you have. And by all means, pray the Holy Rosary. As you dwell on the Mysteries of the Rosary, you may find things easier to understand. Read good religious books too, and check out Formed.org, for great information of all kinds. If your church uses Formed and has a code, use it. Most things you can watch or listen to for free. If your church does not have a code let me know, I can pass on a code I have. God bless you!
@@user-lg4zi2sx7i Don't despair, God is merciful. Yes, speak to your spiritual Father. And send Katherina a throw-away email address (set up one if you need to), then mail her a proper email address later.
The priest here cited a question on YOUCAT but he never mentioned the number of the question or the page this question can be found. I would like to read it for myself. Would appreciate any help on locating this particular question. THANKS
Much like the newer Avatar Cartoons and toys. Racine Wisconsin's Public Schools asked parent's permission to allow their child,_____, to Will themself to an Avatar to use their computer's system. What would one expect as The State's School Superintendent? Is, Tony Evers, also a Jehovah's Witness! We kicked out of our home in he stalked us to in Burlington!
Pope Pius XII said it was permitted to believe in the biological evolution of the body in Humani Generis. I'm afraid this Priest is incorrect in his understanding of scriptural inerrancy. The bible uses different grammatical tools to express the truth. Not everything is to be taken literally. There are different methods of propagating the truth than just expressing something literally.
Actually that’s wrong. That’s a common mistake. Also genesis is historical. The first 11 chapters aren’t one genre then magically turn into another midway in chapter 12.
@@SensusFidelium Humani Generis paragraphs 36-37, "For these reasons the Teaching Authority of the Church does not forbid that, in conformity with the present state of human sciences and sacred theology, research and discussions, on the part of men experienced in both fields, take place with regard to the doctrine of evolution, in as far as it inquires into the origin of the human body as coming from pre-existent and living matter - for the Catholic faith obliges us to hold that souls are immediately created by God. However this must be done in such a way that the reasons for both opinions, that is, those favorable and those unfavorable to evolution, be weighed and judged with the necessary seriousness, moderation and measure, and provided that all are prepared to submit to the judgment of the Church, to whom Christ has given the mission of interpreting authentically the Sacred Scriptures and of defending the dogmas of faithful[11] Some however rashly transgress this liberty of discussion, when they act as if the origin of the human body from preexisting and living matter were already completely certain and proved by the facts which have been discovered up to now and by reasoning on those facts, and as if there were nothing in the sources of divine revelation which demands the greatest moderation and caution in this question. 37. When, however, there is question of another conjectural opinion, namely polygenism, the children of the Church by no means enjoy such liberty. For the faithful cannot embrace that opinion which maintains either that after Adam there existed on this earth true men who did not take their origin through natural generation from him as from the first parent of all or that Adam represents a certain number of first parents. Now it is in no way apparent how such an opinion can be reconciled with that which the sources of revealed truth and the documents of the Teaching Authority of the Church propose with regard to original sin, which proceeds from a sin actually committed by an individual Adam and which through generation is passed on to all and is in everyone as his own.[12]"
@@SensusFidelium It's not alien to Scripture that within certain books there are different genres. For example, in the Gospels when Christ teaches parables these are to be taken as moral/spiritual lessons and not strictly historical events. Whereas the miracles of Christ and especially his resurrection are stricly historical events.
I am a conservative and reject liberation theology. But I’ve listened to these guys a lot and especially after hearing this persons rant on Lancelot Link - I can say these guys are crazy. They are nuts and humorless. Some of what they say is true but they are extreme and need psychological help.
Please, this sermon deserve's a whole Rosary for this priest and Sensus Fidelium. I am from the Netherlands and this sermon is vital for the salvation of souls in Holland as its become like Sodom. The Catholics are so far away from the truth that we need more than a miracle but we will get there through the blessed Mother and our ancestors prayed for the people of this time and many martyers.
Canada too.... You are all in my prayers!!
Rockie Overlunde agreed! I teach CCD and we have a class of 30 kids. All 6th-10th grade. All of them getting their first communion. My children are the only ones in the entire church that do continuous religious education. When I was young..it was not a choice. Not that race means anything...but in the class of 30... My daughter is the only white kid. Why? That's my question... I know Catholics who would rather have their kids in sports then take time for CCD and communion or confirmation. We need prayers!!! They took out the part in the creed where it says he descended into hell and our teaching materal has removed it as well. Why?? God we need you!
Every Nation has become Sodom and Gomorrah. Evil Socialist Progressives.
my mother visited Holland , i will pray for you ... madam , and for holland too
I do believe that God is using the "Sensus Fidelium" and its preachers to bringing Catholics into Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church founded by Jesus Christ Himself. Myself I have learned a lot from this website, the Sensus Fidelium TH-cam Channel. May God continue to bless and guide His Sacred Servants in this Catholic TH-cam Channel. Amen!
I'm so glad I saw this video I was minutes away from ordering YouCat I am a CCD teacher in New York westchester area. This video could not be a coincidence. I ask you all pray for me for we need to catechist more then ever Big and small
I am a priest of 40 years. When I was in seminary in the 1970s early 80s, it was as if the Church started in 1966.
I was so glad years later that before my return to the Church I graduated from a biblical based Bible College. If it wasn't for that foundation, I would have lost my faith. Accepting Holy Scripture as True, Literal and all inspired, is the basis of Catholic Truth.
In this 2019 of month of May, in my early 50's I definitely recall the Baltimore Catechism, and I owe my parents the world for sending me to parochial school. It's just like yesterday I recall it being taught to me, remembered in memory, its picture drawings, and explained by my teacher an excellent nun. So blessed in fact from 1st grade to 8th they were all nuns and 2 brothers. Long live God and his Holy Spirit who speaks the truth through this blessed priest in this talk.
Here's my Big Bang theory. God said "Let there be light," and BANG! There was light.
Lucy Brown yup exactly
KMF, Agreed.
Exactly
Bingo!
I wish we could hear homilies like this from the Pulpit at most Catholic churches.

After hearing this talk now I know the creation story is true and not a mythic story. Thank you father!
Also the Geocentric model of the universe is correct. Robert Sungenis and Rick Delano have done many documentaries about it with scientific data.
Thanks to traditional teaching on the Internet I’ve been pulled out of hell🎉🎉💕✝️🎁
Jacki nappy my granddaughter age 10 was in class and the teacher said "there is no hell" my granddaughter said "Miss hell is a place" then teacher got a bit heated and my granddaughter said to her I know there is a hell because we pray every day at home.She told her mum who told her she was proud of her for standing up for the faith,she also said I don't like my teachers ideas, her mum told her to pray for her teacher.
kids are the best at spreading the Truth who put us adults in shame at times
Well, if this a secular school, I don't believe there should've even been that conversation. But at a Catholic or Christian school? That would make more sense.
God bless this dear priest, one of the few who is actually alive and does not call Genesis a myth. If Genesis is a myth then the Sabbath has no meaning and the Lord has deceived us. THis is impossible.
Amazing!!! All religious educators should see this!
By far....... the best Priest I have ever listened to.
Amazing how so many people contradict the Church and claim to be members of it. Such Heresy and Hypocrisy reigning today.
God does not bend to Majority Opinions. God is Mercy of course, but also Justice and his word is final.
Man is not God. God does not need mans approval. God is "I AM WHO I AM". Exodus 3 : 14
Moses as the author of the entire Pentateuch, including Genesis. Was not corrected by Jesus Christ when the word became flesh and dwelt amung us, instead our Lord says......
"If you had believed Moses, you would believe Me, because he wrote about Me. But since you do not believe what he wrote, how will you believe what I say?" John 5 : 46
"Then Abraham said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone rises from the dead.’” Luke 16 : 31
Michael Murray, I agree the damage done by the "Princes " of the Church is horrific . It confuses the faithful,plants doubt in the mind ,especially of those who do not understand or have a solid foundation in the knowledge and truth of Mother Church. I am in the process of conversion from Baptist to Catholic. For 2 years I have been studying and listening to homilies etc. It is not only confusing it is almost impossible to reconcile. The devil on my shoulder ( so to say) is in red with a pitchfork on my left and in red with staff on my right. Sadly, from my own personal perspective while the Roman Catholic Church has not 30,000 and upwards denominations as the Protestant sects have, it has a similar interior discord. It isn't that one parish may differ a bit in it'd delivery due to the personal disposition of the Priests, one Catholic church can be as un-Catholic as any Unitarian facility. That is a bitter pill. A very dangerous one . For if your Shepherd(s) watches not his flock or deliberately in his pride leads them astray,what is to become of them? if you do not know of the correct and true teaching of the Faith, putting your faith for the correct and " what has always been taught in all times in all places" it has its authoritarian Shepherds spewing heresy and,or supporting it. What is to be done? How do I, know what is correct?
To that point and end, I am most grateful for the plethora of consistency,constancy of Catholic truth presented herein. Thank you for hearing me. Please pray for me through my conversion, that error will not be my stumbling block. May God bless you and may Our Blessed Mother Mary comfort and guide you always to her son.
@@novellanurney1294 The key is 'Tradition' , 'Scripture; and 'Patrimony of the Saints'.
When all these agree, you know that you have unbiased truth, in conformity with the Apostles themselves and our Lord Jesus Christ.
What is confusing is when those who are supposed to be upholding these three pillars do not, and turn themselves into hypocrites.
But nevertheless Jesus Christ is always present in the most Holy Eucharist, and that precious sacrament IS Jesus, no matter the Priest, when the red lamp is lit.... Jesus Christ resides fully in the Tabernacle.
If I walk into a Church and I can't find the Tabernacle, or Jesus Christ on the Cross... I just turn around and walk out, because without Jesus it ain't Catholic.
I think Jesus is giving the whole world a taste of that confusion and bitterness He experienced in Gethsemane, especially when the enemy was showing our Lord just how many souls would reject Him, regardless of the tremendous sacrifice our Lord was about to make on Calvary.
A good prophecy to read is 'Our Lady of Good Success' in Ecuador about 500 years ago pertaining to this age. Explains it all way better than I ever could, and it is a tremendous grace from our Lady.
I highly recommend this video that is played during a Eucharistic Conference called 'The Eucharist, In Communion With Me.'

Even today, there is a lot of "Let your conscience be your guide..." - This is of course, garbage, considering most of us have a poorly formed conscience (which is why we pick up a catechism in the first place - To form something that we need to know!) -
Why do we not hear the USCCB having a list of "condemned readings" ???
The USCCB appears all too concerned about the death penalty, immigration (of Hispanics only), and other social justice concerns on earth.

Thank you so much Father. Ave Maria✝️✝️✝️🌹🌹🌹🔔🔔🔔
Thank you for your videos. As a practicing Roman Catholic, weekly communicant, avid Thomist and former graduate level academic I would respectfully put forth the following rebuttals:
1. It is well known hard, historical fact that neither Blessed St. Augustine or Blessed Thomas Aquinas believed in a literal 6 day creation narrative nor a literal interpretation of scripture. Read the Summa and read Augustine’s commentaries on genesis. I don’t know what ancient church fathers he is referring two, but the two big heavy weights definitely were not in his camp, and rather than “ rendering their garments” would probably tell him to calm down at very least.
2. The social gospel is every-bit as crucial to the life of Faith as the more internal/traditionalist variety pushed by the priest above ( I’m assuming it is Fr. Chad R.) As the epistle of St. James teaches, faith without works is dead. For that very reason, many hardline/traditionalist strands of the church in being divorced from the social gospel become OBSESSED with a petty and fear based quantitative and self righteous morality that our brothers and sisters in the eastern tradition refer to as “ the sins of the left hand” ( aka presumption).a brittle, “ “sky is falling” theology develops instead of a true and thriving faith as result. In the same way true and perfect love drives out all fear as the Sacred Scriptures teach, true and perfect fear drives out all love.
3. I very much appreciate Fr. Chad’s talks on exorcism and his decrying the heresy of “ charasmatic” Christianity particular its infection of more conservative strands of the church. While he has my prayers, I wish him and more “traditionalist/conservative” elements of the church for lack of a better word, would use the same zeal and moral out cry they have against secular culture and turn internally and call for the immediate excommunication and criminal incarceration of the countless pedophile priests who have blasphemed their office the Holy Church of God and committed unspeakable crimes and sins against not only children and their families, but Holy God himself. Moreover, I wish they would zealously cry for the immediate excommunication and incarceration of the Bishops who enabled and protected such crimes. That is the greatest moral crisis the church is currently facing in the modern church and it has not been addressed.

many pseudo theologians say faith cannot go against science, they are ignorant not just of Faith and principles of faith, but also very ignorant of science and its principles, going along with the pseudo scientists who can not answer questions, filling their books with mere new age opinions.
Scientific views do contradict Catholic doctrine whenever they claim events that did not happen or attribute power to nature that it does not have. And science operates on a false point of view to begin with - naturalism.
It is really intolerable for you to make such claims. Truth (God) cannot contradict scientific truth. You don't know what you are talking about. This has nothing to do with New Age beliefs.
@@michaelk969 Truth is truth, but d' Lourdes is referring to bigoted scientists who try to prove their presuppositions rather than seek truth. And that is, sadly, the majority. They do not want ridicule, and to lose their well-paid positions.
You are right it is nothing to do with New Age in the normal sense of the word. The phrase also jars with me, but I suppose d' Lourdes means it more like 'modern times'.
Amazing sermon, I never thought about the Big Bang theory as destruction, see that’s why our priests need our respect and prayers. They give us the perspective that the world cannot give.
The priest is ignorant of the Big Bang theory and is dismissing something he does not understand. Don't listen to a theoretical physicist with no theological training to explain Divine Revelation and don't listen to a priest with no training as a physicist to explain physical theories of the universe.

The Catholic Family Connections Bible by Saint Mary's press ( new American Bible) threw me off completely as I had my 12 year old son ... now 15 read genesis 1:18 on the creation and the "Did you know?" Commentary... says "Genesis was written not as a science article but as a series of symbolic stories, sometimes called mythic stories, that convey great moral and spiritual truths." This paragraph made me think that The creation story was symbolic and not true! Now my son is totally confused on creation! Please help!😫

From the copyright page of the English translation of the YOUCAT, word for word, line for line:
"Nihil Obstat, March 3, 2010
Austrian Bishops' Conference Imprimatur, Austrian Bishops'
Conference with the approval of the German Bishops' Conference,
November 29, 2010; the Swiss Bishops' Conference, December
6, 2010 with the prior approval of the Congregation for the
Doctrine of the Faith, the Congregation for the Clergy, and
the Pontifical Congregation for the Laity."
Here is assurance that the text contains nothing contradicting the Catholic faith, and the approval for distribution among the Catholic faithful. Not only that, there is a four page forward by Pope (now Emeritus) Benedict XVI RECCOMENDING the YOUCAT.
The text itself states in the "Instructions for Use" (found on the same page as the afore mentioned Nihil Obstat and Imprimatur):
"The Youth Catechism, which is written in language suitable for young people, deals with the entire Catholic faith as it was presented in the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC of 1997), without aiming, however, at the completeness provided in that volume."
The YOUCAT is not meant to provide detailed, comprehensive information. Rather, it is meant to attract the frankly disengaged youth of today to the applicability of the truth they don't know they desire. If bright illustrations and simplified language, free of heresy, are necessary to do that, so be it. The YOUCAT is much more accurately described as being an antidote to the horrific religious texts of the day than being one among them.
The book teaches errors. It doesn't matter that a bishops' conference and Pope Benedict approved it. Many bishops and Pope Benedict believe errors.
I'm very disappointed with the YouCat. It was started during St JPII and completed under Benedict XVI. Both of these popes were great scholars in theology and Scripture. I have to say, though, I have only read the 1997 CCC (promulgated by JPII).
Great presentation of the truth about the Catholic Church ; we need to get back to the basic old tradition of worship before Vatican 11.We have to stop following the world and return to God in Christ Jesus under the umbrella of traditional Catholic. Thanks
Didn’t Cardinal O’Connor have the “pope’s” ear?
Let's see what pope Pius XII has to say about this:
"The teaching authority of the Church does not forbid that, in conformity with the present state of human sciences and sacred theology, research and discussions . . . take place with regard to the doctrine of evolution, in as far as it inquires into the origin of the human body as coming from pre-existent and living matter-[but] the Catholic faith obliges us to hold that souls are immediately created by God" (Pius XII, Humani Generis 36)
Therefore our bodies may have been developed through evolution, but our souls are immediately created by God.
Hi Samuel Saad. Let's also see what pope Pius XII wrote in the rest of paragraph 36 of Humani Generis (w2.vatican.va/content/pius-xii/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-xii_enc_12081950_humani-generis.html):
"However, this must be done in such a way that the reasons for both opinions, that is, those favorable and those unfavorable to evolution, be weighed and judged with the necessary seriousness, moderation and measure, and provided that all are prepared to submit to the judgment of the Church, to whom Christ has given the mission of interpreting authentically the Sacred Scriptures and of defending the dogmas of faith.
Some however, rashly transgress this liberty of discussion, when they act as if the origin of the human body from pre-existing and living matter were already completely certain and proved by the facts which have been discovered up to now and by reasoning on those facts, and as if there were nothing in the sources of divine revelation which demands the greatest moderation and caution in this question."
So research and discuss, don't act as if evolution has been proved. Please check out the scientific and philosophical articles on www.kolbecenter.org, the Kolbe Center for the Study of Creation. God bless you, greetings from Jasper
Samuel, Pius XII did not suggest that the human body may have been developed through, he only permitted Catholics to research and discuss evolution theory, on condition that both those who favor and oppose it are involved in the discussion. The Church teaches that God creates the body and soul together and immediately.
Samuel Saad I feel compelled as a retired MD and educator and cradle catholic who Thru a personal supernatural revelation have realized that -
The pure irreversible and absolute truth of our Catholic faith is the only way to heaven But as a scientist I feel obligated also to remind everyone that the social sciences are mostly based false premises and conclusions about mans psychological growth and true inner nature
especially evolution!
Modernism has created false sciences from anthropology to sociology to most behavioral sciences.
Many supposedly proven experiments in many texts that are seen as verbatim by students cannot be repeated and thus are false and are destroying our youth!
There is no doubt in my mind that we are nearing the apocalypse!
Most young adults can not discern the truth nor even attempt to doubt anything as I believe greed atheism and a lack of integrity has become their God !
We are living the result of 80 years of lies in almost every realm of study especially in political science that were designed to undermine future generations and make them lemmings beholding and trusting only a government filled with hatred of all Christians!
Evolution is a scientific fact backed by overwhelming empirical evidence.
The soul is a fictional product of ignorance and wishful thinking.
al nice conspiracy theories I somehow doubt you were a scientist...
The only thing based on false premises and lies is the cult of pedophiles you ignore all facts to worship
26:20 "He is not man, he is God" well to be correct he is both God and Man.
Fr Chad needs to read Humani Generis if he believes the Church rejects evolution.
SO glad I wasn't alive in the 60's/70's.
We are living off the fumes of it sadly...

Only the 1st edition of the Baltimore catechism is orthodox, new versions teach "invincible ignorance" and baptism of desire.
The Penny Catechism is simple, and orthodox giving you all the basics of the faith.
I'm waiting for my copy of the catechism of the council of trent.
How are we supposed to REALLY know our faith? How do we know what to believe?
listening to all videos on this chanel would be a good start. Pray rosary daily and ask Holy Mother & Jesus to grant you the truth. Go to confession! God bless.
I do have a question about genesis. Who were the other people on the planet that Cain was exiled to and had a family with and where did they come from? Have always wondered that.
other people who were not recorded in the bible. a couple can have lots kids, especially when they can live for hundreds years and were the best first human that God Himself made in his alike.
The following is from Fundamentals of Catholic Dogma by Dr. Ludwig Ott, "In order to solve the difficulties deriving from the apparent contradiction between the results of natural science and the Biblical narrative of the Creation the following general principles are to be observed: a) Even though all Holy Writ is inspired and is the Word of God, still, following St. Thomas, a distinction must be made between that which is inspired per se, and that which is inspired per accidens. As the truths of Revelation laid down in Holy Writ are designed to serve the end of religious and moral teaching, inspiration per se extends only to the religious and moral truths. The profane facts of natural science and history contained in Holy Writ are not inspired per se, but only per accidens, that is, by virtue of their relation to the religious-moral truths. The data inspired per accidens is also the Word of God, and consequently without error. However, the hagiographers in profane things make use of a popular, that is, non-scientific form of exposition suitable to the mental perception of their times, a more liberal interpretation, is possible here. The Church gives no positive decisions in regard to purely scientific questions, but limits itself to rejecting errors which endanger the faith. Further, in these scientific matters there is no value in a consensus of the Fathers since they are not here acting as witnesses of the Faith, but merely as private scientists. b) Since the findings of reason and the supernatural knowledge of Faith go back to the same source, namely to God, there can never be a real contradiction between the certain discoveries of the profane sciences and the Word of God properly understood."
“The doctrine of evolution based on the theistic conception of the world, which traces matter and life to God’s causality and assumes that organic being, developed from originally created seed-powers (St. Augustine) or from stem-forms (doctrine of descent), according to God’s plan, is compatible with the doctrine of Revelation. However, as regards MAN, a special creation by God is demanded, which must extend at least to the spiritual soul. Individual Fathers, especially St. Augustine, accepted a certain development of living creatures. Proceeding from the assumption that God created everything at one time, they taught that God brought a certain part of His creatures into a finished state, while He created others in a form of primitive seeds from which they were gradually to develop.”
Who is the priest talking? Where was this recorded?
I think his name is fr Ripperger. Other videos have his name on them.
My Guess is Father Sean Casey

As an orthodox Catholic and physicist I am truly disappointed in this video. It is crucial to always remember that science, which is based on empirical evidence and reason, can never be in conflict with Divine Revelation. Science uncovers the truths of the natural universe, created by God, and so it can never be in conflict with Divine Truth who is God.
This priest discusses disparate topics that each deserve their own careful treatment (heretical catechisms, evolution, big bang theory). First of all, the fact that there are heretical texts, such as the Dutch catechism that should have never promulgated, is a valid point. Modernism often seeps into such catechisms. He could have elaborated on this point more and come up with a solid talk.
However, the priest has no competency at all to discuss the details of the Theory of Evolution and the Big Bang theory as scientific theories . He is absolutely mistaken in saying that the Big Bang theory is simply the Theory of Evolution applied to the universe at large. Both theories are based on evidence and the amount of evidence supporting the Big Bang theory is enormous. There is no relationship whatsoever between the two theories! The evidence for the theory of evolution, I believe, is considerably weaker.
One thing that will confuse the layman (and seems to have confused him) is that in common language, the word "theory" is used for a set of ideas that explain something but which is presumed to have no supporting evidence. In the sciences, this is not at all the connotation of the word. In the sciences every theory must be tested by experiment, and if a single instance is found, in which the theory's predictions are false then the theory is deemed false. Scientific theories are never proven, they can only be dis-proven. Hence when scientists believe a theory to be correct it is because numerous different tests of the theory have been performed and no violations have been discovered. We believe it is true with a high probability.
He failed to mention that when physicist Fr. Georges Lemaitre proposed the Big Bang theory as an explanation of the observed expansion of the galaxies measured by Hubble, most of the resistance of the scientific community was because his theory would imply that the universe had an initial instant of creation (from nothing). Once the microwave background radiation was accidentally found and the temperature of its source was measured, scientists started to become convinced that his theory was true. Yes, the Big Bang theory (and its experimental measurements!!) point to the fact that the universe has a finite age (which has been measured); it is not infinitely old as was previously assumed. Hence, the Big Bang theory actually supports one of the main points of the Biblical Genesis narrative which is that God created the universe from nothing at some FINITE time in the past. This is the exact opposite of what he is claiming, which is that Genesis is factually correct and the Big Bang theory is factually incorrect. Genesis was not meant to be a scientific treatment of how the Universe came into being and evolved. One of the fundamental principles of scriptural exegesis is to always interpret each book according to the literary form that was intended by the human author. Genesis was not meant to be a history book, in spite of the fact that it contains some historical facts, nor was Genesis meant to be a scientific book even though it contains some scientific truths.
Truly, each of us, and certainly this priest, needs to be humble enough to admit when subject matter is beyond their competence. If he wants to discuss scientific theories and examine their impact on Divine Revelation he needs to study the scientific theories extensively. He knows some theology but very little science. Otherwise he will make the same mistake that our for-fathers made which was to believe that scientific statements contradict theological beliefs (cf. the theory of Galileo and the Heliocentric theory of Copernicus).
Kolbe Center- disprove Evolution etc quite handily using the actual scientific method unlike Darwin et. al.
You are right in many things. Case for evolution is weak. Actually it is non-existent.
Big Bang - how did something arise out of nothing? If a tiny, extremely heavy dot exploded, that means that there was someting before the bang, doesn't it?
Science is ever developing. Today we know that the speed of light is not constant, and there are other possible explanations for redshift.
In other words, we don't actually know anything - it is all theories. Some theories have better support than others, that is all. And I agree that we have to go on that, but with the humility required. Luckily, our salvation does not depend on our understanding of science!
'My people perish for lack of knowledge.' This is where we should focus, perhaps. What knowledge?
1) Knowledge of the nature of God. Theology, in other words.
2) Understanding of how the enemy works. This comes in several streams:
> a) temptation
> b) false spirituality (serious heresy; satanism and the occult; demonic religion such as hinduism and islam). The New Age also comes in here, descended from Theosophical Society (started by Masons), the Lucis Trust, and influenced by the occultist Alester Crowley.
> c) the quest of the antichrist for would domination and destruction of all Churches. This is beginning to show openly, such as the word ZION emblazoned in logos of the Olympic Games. It is too big a subject to list in detail here, but involves secret societies (Cabbala, Knights Templar, Masonry, Illuminati, the Skull and Bones and probably Zionism) and clandestine plans by less secret groups (the Communist International, the UN, the Trilateral Commision, the Federal Reserve Bank - which, despite the intentionally misleading name, is privately owned - and a plethora of NGO's), private people (like the Rothschilds, Bill Gates and George Soros), and internet censorship (by Google, TH-cam, FaceBook and so on).
Excuse me for quoting myself from above,
> I don't think that believing in evolution will separate you from Grace and from the love of God. Nonetheless, I don't believe in evolution any more. No intermediate state between two species has ever been found in the fossil records. NOT ONE! A few cases of recorded changes, like the horse going from five toes to walking on one, are not evolution, but the opposite: a loss of something. All the things the scientists say favour the idea of evolution can be taken apart. For instance, they say that the giraffe developed its long neck so it could reach leaves in tall trees. Sounds plausibe, doesn't it? But why is the female shorter than the male? How did she survive? Why did no other African mammal grow in height? Research the subject with an pen mind, and you will find.
Bacteria 'develop' immunity to antibiotics. NO! What happens is that the few bacteria that happen to have immunity survive and multiply, and it LOOKS LIKE immunity has developed.
> Scientists love to talk about stages between apes and men. Many of these ostensible 'stages' have already been consigned to the scrapheap: they were either apes, or men, but not something in between. I believe the few remaining finds will go the same way one day.
> In any case, there's a real difference between us and the apes: God breathed on us and gave us Spirit. In that sense it doesn't really matter if God reused the physical material of an ape.
But there's no need to believe that He did. Similarity of design does not prove descent. As a poor simili: look at the various designs from the hand of an architect or a car designer. The similarity can be striking - in most cases is. But that is because the designer has found a pattern that works. Same with God.
Actually, there are some oddities among species that do not fit with evolution at all. Feathers. Marsupials. Spiders (8 legs, whereas insects have 6). Squids. Mammals compared to egg-layers.
There is also the fact that almost all bar one of the main phyla (main categories) of life occurred during what is termed the 'Cambrian explosion'. If evolution were a fact, that would not be the case.
Only the creation 'days' are not literal. The sun and moon were not created in day one - so clearly we are not talking about 24 hour days.
Best regards,
God Bless
I would like a citation to the statement of Fr Georges Henri Joseph Édouard Lemaîtr regarding the big bang theory and the existence of God.
go into a Catholic Church with Tabernacle and ask Jesu on the Alter to help you
Two of the greatest fallacies of self deceived scientists:
Neglecting His control (through our souls) of what we observe/measure/perceive.
Assuming time, also His creation, shall follow linearly simply because it was observed so in the recent past.
By the way, who are we to command God how to do things (at best, we are allowed to pray our desires).
The priest is not quoting the Youcat accurately. Here is correct text lifted out directly & unadulterated.
"How can Sacred Scripture be 'truth' if not everything in it is right?
The Bible is not meant to convey precise historical information or scientific findings to us. Moreover the authors were children of their time. Their forms of expression are influenced by the sometimes inadequate cultural images of the world around them. Nevertheless, everything that man must know about God and the way of his salvation is found with infallible certainty in Sacred Scripture."
To deny the absolute nature of scripture is to deny divine inspiration, which is clearly heretical and blasphemous. What does "historical precision" (what a joke of a concept, history is itself the least precise of all the social sciences) or science (a construct of empiricism that has no relevance to history or the miraculous, although current paradigms are largely unempirical indirect patchwork constructs of what is in reality guesswork and supposition meant to "best fit what appears to be correct") have to do with the Word of God?
Like the CCC, the "Youcat" has undergone editorial revision since its original publication. Father quoted the original version (link follows) correctly.
schools.alcdsb.on.ca/teachers/bradynic/HRE%204M1%2012M%20Handouts/YOUCAT%20-%20Schoenborn,%20Christoph%20Cardinal.htm
Jeff Hunt TheTableReader Thanks for bringing this point up. I wasn't aware of the earlier edition. I agree the original answer was awfully contradictory & confusing.
I always have my doubts with flashy stuff. The more dust the book has, the better. ;D
I mean, why bother yourself with some condensed version of Catechism or the Sacred Scripture like YOUCAT is offering you? I am 24 years old, God gave me an active mind and hungry soul, longing for Him. Would you try to know more about your lover through little condensed pieces and summaries or would you try to know as much as you can so you can love Him even more?
One note, tho. And it is a brotherly warning. Studying the catechism without the prayer - forget it. Don't even try. Adoration, Holy Communion, confession and constancy in religious life - otherwise the almighty and living God will be an idea, and not the Most Holy Trinity - 3 Divine Persons, 1 God.
I don't see how that is any different from what father conveyed.
So, other than the Baltimore (aka St Joseph's), what other catechetical work should be used to teach orthodox Catholicism?
Balken Kreuz Catechism of the Catholic Church. Cardinal Arinze reads and meditates on two pages of the CCC daily and he is very, very orthodox. Pope Benedict XVI also recommends it and JPII put a shining sentence at the beggining of the CCC saying it is a sure norm of teaching the faith.
Along with resources this holy priest recommended, Denzinger is also a must. Fr. Hardon audio and video lectures are orthodox to the core (hate using the word orthodox - you cannot be but orthodox Catholic. Not being orthodox ceases the state of being Catholic). Pray for our Church, brother. Get down to business of being holy. Eternity is at stake.

My Catholic Faith by Most Reverend Louis LaRavoire Morrow 1941
The Penny Catechism is short and sweet, but covers everything and is orthodox. Perfect for teaching children and is cheap.
Also the Catechism of St. Pope Pius X is great and easy to read as well and is orthodox.
Catechism of the Council of Trent
You know, Chesterton is an odd one to choose to quote at the end of a sermon opposing that we be accepting or tolerant of evolution.
What must I do if I've received the sacraments all my life with not a firm faith . I feel like I've committed sacrilege my whole life :(
R talk with your priest or at least go to confession and mention these feelings you have. And by all means, pray the Holy Rosary. As you dwell on the Mysteries of the Rosary, you may find things easier to understand. Read good religious books too, and check out Formed.org, for great information of all kinds. If your church uses Formed and has a code, use it. Most things you can watch or listen to for free. If your church does not have a code let me know, I can pass on a code I have. God bless you!
Katherine Dunn
Hi Katherine, thank you for your comment, is there anyway to contact you?
@@user-lg4zi2sx7i Don't despair, God is merciful. Yes, speak to your spiritual Father. And send Katherina a throw-away email address (set up one if you need to), then mail her a proper email address later.
yeah like anyone who was Catechised in the 60s, 70s and early 80s....
2:04 interesting illustration.
Please leave out Vortex.
omg i bought 2 years ago that book , becausea a friend of mina higly recommended to me :D
through it away
and start to learn our faith, and stop use God's name in vein. May God bless you with truth
The priest here cited a question on YOUCAT but he never mentioned the number of the question or the page this question can be found. I would like to read it for myself. Would appreciate any help on locating this particular question. THANKS
Question # 15
YOUCATwas created from JPII WHICH I think is great . DOCAT was created by pope francis
Much like the newer Avatar Cartoons and toys. Racine Wisconsin's Public Schools asked parent's permission to allow their child,_____, to Will themself to an Avatar to use their computer's system. What would one expect as The State's School Superintendent? Is, Tony Evers, also a Jehovah's Witness! We kicked out of our home in he stalked us to in Burlington!
41:32
Pope Pius XII said it was permitted to believe in the biological evolution of the body in Humani Generis. I'm afraid this Priest is incorrect in his understanding of scriptural inerrancy. The bible uses different grammatical tools to express the truth. Not everything is to be taken literally. There are different methods of propagating the truth than just expressing something literally.
Actually that’s wrong. That’s a common mistake. Also genesis is historical. The first 11 chapters aren’t one genre then magically turn into another midway in chapter 12.
@@SensusFidelium Humani Generis paragraphs 36-37, "For these reasons the Teaching Authority of the Church does not forbid that, in conformity with the present state of human sciences and sacred theology, research and discussions, on the part of men experienced in both fields, take place with regard to the doctrine of evolution, in as far as it inquires into the origin of the human body as coming from pre-existent and living matter - for the Catholic faith obliges us to hold that souls are immediately created by God. However this must be done in such a way that the reasons for both opinions, that is, those favorable and those unfavorable to evolution, be weighed and judged with the necessary seriousness, moderation and measure, and provided that all are prepared to submit to the judgment of the Church, to whom Christ has given the mission of interpreting authentically the Sacred Scriptures and of defending the dogmas of faithful[11] Some however rashly transgress this liberty of discussion, when they act as if the origin of the human body from preexisting and living matter were already completely certain and proved by the facts which have been discovered up to now and by reasoning on those facts, and as if there were nothing in the sources of divine revelation which demands the greatest moderation and caution in this question.
37. When, however, there is question of another conjectural opinion, namely polygenism, the children of the Church by no means enjoy such liberty. For the faithful cannot embrace that opinion which maintains either that after Adam there existed on this earth true men who did not take their origin through natural generation from him as from the first parent of all or that Adam represents a certain number of first parents. Now it is in no way apparent how such an opinion can be reconciled with that which the sources of revealed truth and the documents of the Teaching Authority of the Church propose with regard to original sin, which proceeds from a sin actually committed by an individual Adam and which through generation is passed on to all and is in everyone as his own.[12]"
@@SensusFidelium Genesis uses allegorical language.
@@SensusFidelium It's very clear that Pope Pius XII said it was permissible to believe in the evolution of the body.
@@SensusFidelium It's not alien to Scripture that within certain books there are different genres. For example, in the Gospels when Christ teaches parables these are to be taken as moral/spiritual lessons and not strictly historical events. Whereas the miracles of Christ and especially his resurrection are stricly historical events.
parole senza senso!
I am a conservative and reject liberation theology. But I’ve listened to these guys a lot and especially after hearing this persons rant on Lancelot Link - I can say these guys are crazy. They are nuts and humorless. Some of what they say is true but they are extreme and need psychological help.
