Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Come on, Mike, there’s nothing that’s really permanent.”  I suppose if you approach these things and these matters from the point of view that there is no permanence, meaning there is no God and there is no Transcendent, then I suppose you could make the case or conclude that there’s only us and only us tomorrow and only the us we make.  Then there will be only them and they will decide.  Since they all decide and there i….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I have this story here about how a “gun rights group” claims to be a now supporter of the Manchin-Toomey bill. How is this possible? How is it possible? Here’s the headline: “Gun rights group endorses Manchin-Toomey background-check bill.” How could you be running around endorsing something that you know to be an unconstitutional exercise?

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – My buddy Steve Cunningham sent me this story last night. I didn’t get a chance to read it yesterday eve but I read it this morning. The title of the story is “’Marriage Equality’ or ‘Marriage Extinction’? Next: equal rights for incest and bestiality”. I don’t see the bestiality thing. I do see the incest.

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – While it is always ill-advised and inadvisable to cheat on your wife, violate your oath, lie, do other forms of cheating, steal, whatever the case may be, we cannot deny that there is available to us mercy.

Now It's All About The Terminology Instead Of The Issues

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Can I just tell you that I’ve read a couple million words text from the 18th and 19th and early part of the 20th century, and I can find no argument, no semantical argument over the use of terminology anywhere in the historical record? It just isn’t there. This is a modern fabrication of our own narcissism and our own elevated, evolved status, because we are so much higher, such a higher form of being.

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – If you’re to denounce your theological heritage, what are you to replace it with, what the cool kids with the pumped-up kicks say is theological heritage today? Is it theological at all? Most of them probably think we need no theology. “What’s God? What do we need that for? I can’t like God on Facebook. I can’t follow Jesus on Twitter.

Marriage Without God Is Not Marriage

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – This is an act that is supposed to be and was consecrated before God. That’s why you had a witness there. That’s why it was overseen by a priest or a rabbi or whatever religious faith. It’s because you were vowing in front of God that you take the woman or the woman takes the man to have and hold and all these things. This is not just a contractual obligation.

Tradition Is Out And Contract Relationships Are In

Contains Exclusive: Audio, Transcript Topics: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – The act and action and activity of marriage is becoming less and less of a solemn act, solemn meaning you don’t break it. You do everything that you have to do or that you can or must do to avoid breaking it. That is just not the way it is viewed today. It is not the opinion of the majority of people, and that’s because we have become a secular people, by and large. Those considerations don’t matter. This is really just, t….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – We’ve been having a very robust discussion. Of course, I have fielded calls from the usual suspects who demand to know why there is a Catholic Church. You guys are just after power. You’re a bunch of power-hungry people. The pope is a king. It’s the Roman Empire, not the Roman Catholic Church. Tell the folks a little bit about Sacred Then and Sacred Now and how that would apply to what we saw yesterday and what we may see….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – We have to have an anarchist atheist express a devoutly traditional Catholic point of view on CNN to get one out there. There’s Penn Jillette promoting a book called Every Day Is An Atheist Holiday making more sense than almost anyone that I’ve seen talk about this. Why hasn’t Penn Jillette ever been on this show?

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Folks, that’s a reflection of all the things we talk about. Isn’t it just another of the latest examples of our purge of tradition and our purge of true moral order and code? We don’t have a code. You make it up as you go along. If it’s inconvenient or it might cost you a couple of shekels, you just bail. You just abandon it for pure selfish reasons. It’s tragic and sad. Check out today's tra….Continue
