   Are Radical Catholics Too Religious?

   This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric (The Ambassador of Common Sense) and Dan (The Ambassador Of Nonsense) discuss the idea that fanaticism or radicalism can or cannot apply to Christianity--or more specifically, to Catholicism. When God asks for everything, how can we give Him too much? In current events, 67 nations sign the High Seas Treaty. UAW workers on strike. Biden goes to see them. Writers' strike ends. Fire in China mine. Cuban Embassy 'bombed.' NASA lands OSIRIS-Rex. Philippines fighting with China. FTC fighting with Amazon. Anthony Rota introduces Nazi… Trudeau claps. North Korea sends back prisoner. Joan Andrews is convicted. California sues life-saving drugmakers. O'keef sues Hawaii. School elects queen for homecoming. Strickland told to resign. Pennsylvanians walk out of school. McCarrick goes to Wisconsin. China charges priest with fraud. Josh Alexander's brother beat then arrested. Nebraska Gma to spend 2 years in jail for killing grandchild. Polish Basilica burned after gay orgy. In the land of nonsense, artist sells blank painting. Man fakes passenger. Michigan woman gets stuck in outhouse. Nerf gun extreme.

It’s the kind of message he has used before, in the aftermath of another American tragedy: the 2017 Las Vegas mass shooting that left 58 dead and hundreds injured. Pelletier was a Las Vegas police captain when a gunman with military-style rifles opened fire from the windows of a Las Vegas Strip high-rise hotel into a crowd of 22,000 attending an outdoor country music festival. The violence shook the city to its core, like the wildfire has done in Maui.

   Are Women More Evil Than Men?

   This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric (The Ambassador of Common Sense) and Dan (The Ambassador Of Nonsense) discuss a recent leaked video where women (mostly women) from the abortion industry discuss the barbaric aspects of abortion, openly and unapologetically, in a way that literally makes our stomachs church. Would we feel the same way if these sorts of evil things were being spoken by men? Is evil itself a more intrinsic part of men or women? And once someone has gone to 'the dark side', are men or women more likely to give themselves over completely to evil? In current events, Volleyball in Nebraska. Proud Boys leaders get sentences, as do pro-life rescuers. The Philippines impose rice caps. Hong Kong evacuated. Pope Francis in Mongolia. Russia has ICBMs ready and waiting. India studying the sun. Burning Man floods. France bans vaping. Japan embraces US Military. Trump is liable… again. Mexico decriminalizes abortion. Chinese dinosaur bird discovered. Berlin AB blesses gays. McCarrick given a pass. Schools busted for transitioning kids behind parents backs. Wildfires over reported. Gays advised not to travel in America. Canadian café owner acquitted. PornHub being sued. DeSantis refuses federal money. Josh Alexander wins. Oklahoma hires perv for principal. WHO and FDA prep for COVID. AB gives communion to Muslim. In the land of nonsense, China's great path. Mississippi alligator. Bull gets traffic ticket. Chicago reporter robbed while reporting crime. Trivia Question: How man coins did the woman have? Show Notes: China's great wall broken through - not by military forces, but by a couple of construction workers (https://apnews.com/article/china-great-wall-destruction-6ca7b89e1c214ff7fb547471808fab2f)https://apnews.com/article/chi (https://apnews.com/article/chi)na-great-wall-destruction-6ca7b89e1c214ff7fb547471808fab2f Mississippi longest alligator caught has new record (You knew they were tracking that, right?)
