In "Communion", JD Vance seeks to explain his shift from atheism to Catholicism, but illustrates only the dangers of putting religion at the heart of politics.
and should true Christians be buying such a book ? especially as it just seems to be lining his personal fortune. I dont understand why anyone would buy or use such a book. He doesnt even have a religious education or maybe he used advisors to write it. It seems these bibles have contributed a lot to his wealth
Here is a Typed out version of the Manifesto. It is a VERY Early Draft and there are many grammar mistakes, I just want thoughts and concerns.
Dear Brothers and Sisters in
Christ, I am inviting you all to
a movement that will to
be heavily needed in years to come
if it partially succeeds to
form a confessional state, a Catholic
Integralist State. A haven against the
demonic forces of Communism, Marxism,
Modernity, Atheism, Zionism,
Liberalism, Modernism, Capitalism, Liberalism,
Individualism, technocracy, corruption in
government (Conspiracies, brainwashing and materialism)
and many more ways the modern
man is enslaved by sin and lies.
I am calling and proposing a
union of the following under a
truly Virtuous state and a state
of divine sanctification and peace:
Austrofascists (Fatherland Front), Francoism,
Brazilian Integralists, and many
of the surviving sympathies
of the Spanish Empire such as
Carlists, Social Conservatives, Swiss
Jesuit Reactions of Paraguay, Traditionalists
and many other active, fringe, or destroyed
Holy movements.
We must strive for a nation with
utmost social moral guidance under the
instruction of the Most Holy Roman
Catholic Church.
We must strive for a nation free of
greedy satanic elites who monopolize our
Industries and cheat the producer and consumer.
We must strive for an Anti-
Communist, Anti-Marxist, Anti-Materialism,
Anti-Modernism Anti-technocratic,
anti-sexually impure, anti-
Free mason, Anti-Nazi, Anti-Monarchy
Anti-Israel, Anti-Vocal Extremist Jews &
Muslims, and Pagans. Anti-Liberalism
Anti-capitalism state. We must strive for
a compassionate Authoritarian Corporatistic(?)
Counter-Enlightenment one party Traditional,
pro-catholic even to the point of possible,
nuclear fam, and self possible,
Communitarian and the following
government provided does not reject
trump the Church’s Authority through
its clergy, councils, documents, and Holy
Pontiff? Distributorship, Anti-Individual
Potentially Democracy Monarchy
and more.
Many beliefs are a combination of
Ideologies (their best features) build out
of Catholic socio-political teaching.
Many of these thought processes have
been developed by Saints such as
St Thomas Aquinas, G.K.
Chesterton, Hipo. Also shouting out
TheJosias.com for a large intellectual
circle of Catholic Integralists.
Hail Christ the King!
May Mary Most Holy Intercede for us!
May we lead our People like most chaste
St. Joseph led the Holy Family.
VIVO CHRISTOS REI IN NOMINE
PATRUS ET FILII ET SPIRITUS

A while back I had a fascinating conversation with historian Charles Coulombe in which he analyzes the 5 core points of Christian monarchy, its biblical foundations, and the historical reality of Christendom.
A Catholic charity in Michigan has filed a federal lawsuit after state officials ended its designation as a specialist women’s treatment provider, in a dispute over the ministry’s religious beliefs on abortion and contraception.
Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) filed the lawsuit on Friday, June 26, on behalf of Catholic Charities of Ingham, Eaton and Clinton Counties, which serves vulnerable families in the Lansing region.
The case, Catholic Charities of Ingham, Eaton and Clinton Counties v Hertel, was filed in the US District Court for the Western District of Michigan, Southern Division. ADF said the lawsuit challenges actions by Michigan officials that allegedly forced the Catholic ministry to choose between its religious beliefs and access to public funding.
I'm curious as to what you think
