The final Sunday of the Liturgical Year is the The Solemnity of Christ the King of the Universe. Proclaimed by Pope Benedict XV after the massively destructive First World War it was meant Europe that violence without boundaries would insure constant destruction. What does the feast have to do with the founding of Christian Europe and the occult nature of the Nazi Reich. This week on OVC.

Skepticism and Faith

“If other ages felt less, they saw more, even though they saw with the blind, prophetical, unsentimental eye of acceptance, which is to say, of faith. In the absence of this faith now, we govern by tenderness. It is a tenderness which, long cut off from the person of Christ, is wrapped in theory. When tenderness is detached from the source of tenderness, its logical outcome is terror. It ends in forced-labor camps and in the fumes of the gas chamber.” - Flannery O’Connor, A Memoir of Mary Ann
