Americanism
| Americanism |
The American Revolution continues to impact American society up to the present in ways we take for granted. In this brilliant discussion, Biersach and Coulombe expose the anti-Catholicism of America's founding Fathers, and how their sentiment permeates the very air we breathe. In this collection, our duo discuss Jefferson, Franklin, Hamilton, Cardinal Gibbons, the American Confederacy, the Intolerable Acts, and (of course) Vatican II. Is Catholicism compatible with democracy? How do the principles of the Revolution affect us today? Find out in this entertaining audio set. |

Angels & Demons
| Angels and Demons |
Both of these beings are very popular these days, taking the spotlight in art, song, literature, and movies. But are they anything like these commercial portrayals, or are they metaphysically and substantially something entirely "other"? Our rambunctious speakers take us on an intriguing exploration of the nature and purposes of these beings. |

Anticlericalism
| Anticlericalism |
A priest is an "altar christus", or other Christ, because he acts in the image and likeness of God, dispensing graces through the Sacraments. But what if our local parish priest spouts heresy? Or steals from the collection? Or frequently violates liturgical rubrics? Is he still entitled to our respect? To what extent may you criticize him?

Benediction
| Benediction |
When it comes to beautiful
ceremonies that rivet our attention to fundamental doctrines of the Catholic
Faith, it doesn't get any better than this. Benediction, which traces its
origin back to the thirteenth century, focuses our minds on the Mystery
of the Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament in a profound
and soul-searching way. Adorned with songs composed by St. Thomas Aquinas
and enhanced with clouds of incense, this devotion scandalizes unbelievers
and captivates all man and women of good will. How sad it is that in our
times this time-honored ritual is gradually disappearing, and even those
priests who try to keep it alive do not have the training to do it properly.
As we pray, so we believe. |

Chivalry
| Chivalry |
If "Chivalry is dead," as we're so often told, what exactly is it that died? Or did it? Far from just a code of polite behavior, Chivalry was actually a courageous way of Catholic life, an avowed state which involved the taking of oaths and which was considered for centuries to be a source of Grace for those men brave enough to follow it. What grand oaths the Knights of old took! Furthermore, this talk includes an examination of that of that mysterious search known as the Quest for the Holy Grail. Finally, a thoughtful presentation of how Chivalry might be revived in our time?indeed, how it must be lived by every Catholic in the face of such cultural, social, and moral opposition as we face in our day. A must for young men and women aspiring to be virtuous Catholics. |

Biersach and Coulombe
| Hell and Its Torments |
A sermon by St. Robert Bellarmine, read by Charles Coulombe. Like a spash of cold water on the face, this is a wake-up call describing our skewed perspective of reality. Despite the enormous stakes of either Heaven or eternal torment, we still choose to serve ourselves over God, for fickle pleasures which don't even truly make us happy. This talk covers the tremendous gravity of sin, the overwhelming happiness in Heaven versus the unthinkable suffering in Hell, the endless NOW of eternity and the despair and rage of the damned. |

| Out of Context |
It has been said that rat poison is 99 percent nutritious? It's
the 1 part of strychnine that does in a rat. Some religious books contain
mostly good information, but also contain a few paragraphs of sinister
misinformation that can send a trusting reader way off his rightful spiritual
course. The same can be said to catechisms, movies, secular books, and
the accounts of recent Marian apparitions. It is also common for verses
to be taken from the Bible out of context and used against the precepts
of the Catholic Faith. In an attempt to alert sincere Catholics to the
peril of uncritical reading and viewing, Mr. Biersach presents us with
excerpts from a variety of sources and shows how their immediate meaning
can be misleading until they are reinserted back into their overall context. |

| Purgatory |
A subject which has been all but completely ignored in the modern ethos, but which demands our attention. What exactly does the traditional Church teach about Purgatory, and upon what authority does She base Her explanation? What have Saints, Popes and councils had to say about this place of cleansing in preparation for Heaven? In what ways did the Council of Trent specify that Martin Luther had erred in this regard? Are all ghosts demons, or could they be souls trapped in Purgatorial fire? What exactly are Indulgences and how do we access them? All this and more is discussed in lively detail.

Biersach and Coulombe: Satan
| Satan |
Be he subtle or flagrant, Satan is out to get us any way that he can. It doesn't
matter to him if we go to Hell for impure acts or uncharitable behavior, for
practicing witchcraft or embracing heresy - just so we turn away from God and
embrace evil. So many are the wiles of the serpent and so sneaky his approach to
human frailty, that Bill and Charles have given three continuous talks expounding
on the various traps and snares that Satan lays for sincere Catholics. |

| Syllabus of Errors |
The Syllabus of Errors of Pope Pius IX in 1864 is an incisive document that pinpoints the nature of many errors (evils) that modern man wholeheartedly embraces. Thus, the document reemphasizes infallible Church teachings that have been clouded over time. This is one of our most challenging CDs because some of the errors which Piux IX lists are some of the most deeply-rooted beliefs held by Americans. Don't be surprised if some of the things on this list are concepts which you've believed in! As Mr. Coulombe states: "What you have here is a dogmatic examination of conscience. "

| UFOs |
In this session, Bill and Charles tackle the question of whether or not there is life on other planets, and the baggage attached with that. For example, would the aliens have their own Adam & Eve, their own Fall? The duo also explore the various skeptical arguments: whether aliens are actually demons, the military, faeries (as written by St. Jerome), or perhaps a part of everyone's collective hysteria.
