I Hate to Be a Johnny One Note, but Church Militant is Hilarious!

Mary Ann takes a look at Voris's latest antics in Baltimore.

Are you tired of reading about Church Militant? What can I say? Mike Voris' Vortex is so hilarious today I couldn't resist writing about his little merry band yet again. The title of this Vortex episode is "Kinda Creepy" which I thought was "kinda" ironic coming from a group that excels at creepy.

But it gets better and better. Voris talks about brief exchanges with several of the bishops in Baltimore whom he invited to come and pray the rosary with them after the rally. He got the cold shoulder.

Really?

What a surprise. The bishops didn't jump at the chance to "pray" with someone who called them ALL homosexuals, homosexual enablers, or cowards...oh... and not to mention "Johns" soliciting their hookers. (Mike's moderated that language to MOST in the current episode)

Wow! Way to treat the office of bishops with respect, Mike!

Let's just say Mary never meant her rosary to be a whip used to beat up on others, particularly clergy, even sinful clergy. Frankly, I wouldn't pray the rosary with Church Militant myself because it seems like a fraudulent show, like the palm reader with statues of the Sacred and Immaculate Heart in the window.

I'm sorry, however, not to be in Baltimore today to pray the rosary with my dear friend Jack Ames of Defend Life. There's a man of God who treats even wrong-headed bishops with respect and has for years. I've never seen him not smile and greet bishop with respect, often by name, since we first attended bishops' meetings in Washington, D.C. decades ago, long before CM arrived on the scene. Jack had huge signs made with photos of Catholic pro-abortion politicians and urged the bishops to enforce Canon 915 against them.

I've known Jack for 50 years. We've worked together often. Here's a video from Defend Life's prayer vigil at the bishops' meeting in Baltimore in 2008. Jack is a gentleman in the holiest sense of the word. May God reward him for his faithfulness!

Jack has been fighting the good fight for a lifetime and my respect for him just grows and grows. Not so Mike Voris. I can't even watch the Vortex any more, I get too distracted by Mike's latest hair job. I read the transcript instead. That's what made me laugh today and decide to write yet another CM post. In big, bold letters I read this:

The crowd that never shuts up about dialogue only wants to dialogue with those who agree with them.

Are you kidding, Mike? I think there's a psychological term for this -- projection: "a way in which an individual projects their own undesirable thoughts and beliefs onto someone else."

If any group "only wants to dialogue with those who agree with them" it's Church Militant. You can read all about their dysfunctional behavior and their ungodly rage against just about everyone on our CM page.

And here's another CM accusation against the "Judases" with "blackness in their souls" who have "no joy" and "no image of Christ" that could accurately be turned back on Voris and company:

Too many of these men and their staffs are obsessed with worldly power and consumed by their egos.

No egos at Church Militant, eh? Really? LOL!

Mike Voris had no ego when he led a "retreat" on land during the Easter Triduum giving ten talks and two long Q and A sessions? No ego as he attacks every other Catholic media outlet, the SSPX, and traditionalists using bully tactics that would make Saul Alinsky proud?

It's interesting that, when I was reading about "projection," it was attributed to narcissists:

Narcissists are renowned for using psychological projection to blame other people, even when it is entirely apparent that they are the ones in the wrong.

Here's is one example of how the narcissist reacts:

A narcissist might be particularly rude or abusive towards you, but when you get upset and call them out on their behaviour, they blame you for overreacting.

That is classic CM. When anyone defends himself against CM's slanderous assaults, Voris and Niles immediately double down. That's what they're doing right now to Mike Parrott at Restoring the Faith, but they do it to everyone with whom they disagree. The defense, they claim, proves the target is guilty. If, on the other hand, the target doesn't react and ignores them, it also proves the target is guilty. They use a two-sided guilty coin to determine the target's culpability. It's a classic con and they are champions at it. Are you channelling Saul Alinsky, Mike?

The name of the CM rally is a good rallying cry to address back to them. Mike, Christine, Simon, et al many people are fed up with you. "Enough really is enough."

Oh...and when they are accusing others of misusing money the audience should consider this. CM took over $300,000 in COVID bailout money from the feds. Nothing illegal there, just convenient. Hey, they have a payroll to meet to keep their empire rolling along.

It resembles what the bishops do who benefit from the federal bucks. Guess CM has something in common with those blackhearted Judases after all.
