Great information. No talk show host ever tackled the subject of Pius XII on AM radio, but Savage did. It’s important to state this truth, that Pius saved many Jewish lives during World War II, for the sake of younger listeners and set the historical record straight against the pervasive onslaughts of the Left.

Denying the Holocaust is bad. But denying the good that was done by courageous people to stop the Holocaust – or even blaming them for it – is even worse. The other side of the coin of the lie is to deny.

That Pope Francis is a Marxist is true. An out-and-out Leninist? No. But someone needs to call the Pope out on his errant, Marxist and Globalist ways.

The infallibility of the Pope is very constrained. It merely states that the Pope is preserved from the possibility of error when defining a doctrine on faith and morals, in a particular way and is very rarely invoked.

The late Father Malachi Martin called himself a Capitalist. We know that the great Catholic mystic and saint of Jewish heritage, St. Teresa of Avila was a good business woman. So, I suppose she was by definition a capitalist.

However, all of this talk of “Free Market Capitalism” by the Globalist “men without a country” aiding and trading with China is pretty much bullsh*t. The only reason there is freedom of trade at all is because America won the wars against Nazism and Communism. Freedom isn’t free nor is a free market.

This implies a responsibility by American business to serve first the interests of the nation that make their unmolested commerce possible and not merely their own bottom lines at any cost. Check out the businessmen giving communist “dictator” Xi – Biden’s words, not mine – a standing ovation in San Francisco. Communism is the sworn enemy of capitalism. Or, so they said.

As noted by Brazilian philosopher Olavo de Carvalho, pure capitalism (monopoly capitalism included) unmoored from Christian and American national values can become the engine of its own destruction through corruption.

Witness the sellout of America through aid, trade, technology and job transfers to Red China and the tolerance of their absolute advantage in production and depression of global wages through the use of slave labor.

Savage is right about Maoism and my dad thought he was right too. My dad used to tell me as teenager in the 1980s that the company he worked for, IBM, was implementing Maoist type changes.

My dad was a very prolific technical writer and instructional designer for IBM and made them a lot of money. He even received royalties for his work through an IBM subsidiary. A rare thing since they weren’t known for paying royalties.

I wrote in his obituary that he wrote 20+ books for them, but it was actually a lot more than that, I think 40+ and a bunch of computer-based, floppy-disk training modules for retail sale. One industry book itself made them millions.

They brought in an Affirmative Action hire and told him he had to train her how to actually write technical manuals and training courses. He tried his best to bring her up to speed but she couldn’t do it. It wasn’t his fault, she didn’t have the talent.

Many lesser people were promoted for accomplishing little or nothing. It was a corporate injustice brought about by Liberalism.

He resonated with Savage’s stories of how he too was put to the back of the bus, even after obtaining his PhD from Berkeley, as others less qualified were promoted. More injustice for the sake of correcting past injustices.

My dad and Savage would have had some epic conversations were he still alive. Like Savage, he was from the East Coast and worked in New York for a while. He, like Savage, moved out to California with his young family to start a new life.

I’m glad he did, since I got to experience some of the best, last days of California before its current, unaffordable, debauched iteration, largely due to the distorted, imposed Liberal policies.

Although a Christian, my dad was very Old Testament with me. I believed God would punish me for every bad thought, word or deed, including in this life. I think it made me a bit neurotic, constrained and preoccupied with eternal and temporal retribution from the divine.

It took some serious personal suffering and struggles to make the adjustments to get out of my purely rational, boxed-in way of thinking. I had to crash and burn substantially, on a personal level, before I was able to resurrect and stumble my way into mysticism. As a matter of fact, I believe what I experienced was a part of the mystical path known as “purgation,” or the Dark Night of the Soul. I think there can be many dark nights in a person’s life…

Mysticism was a way out from purely rational, logical way of thinking that had reached a dead end in my life. What I wasn’t prepared for were the mystical phenomena, few and far between, but sometimes pronounced.

I’ll stop here.
