Who are “Show Me” Catholics?

A certain Missouri Congressman once famously said, “. . . frothy eloquence neither convinces nor satisfies me. I am from Missouri. You have got to show me.”  It is that kind of determination that is now called for in addressing and exposing rampant evil at all levels of Church and State. Shrouded in lies and ambiguity, parallel crises are unfolding in both realms, heretofore unthinkable allies in advancing a Godless New World Order.  Show Me Catholics stand unwaveringly for the unchangeable, God-revealed Truth and our inalienable, God-given rights. We demand accountability from our Church and government hierarchies, along with the establishment media that covers for them.

Show Me Catholics include those of us who turned out at the state capitol for Jericho Marches in the wake of the insidious, elitist and far-reaching conspiracy to steal the presidential election in November 2020. Like Joshua and the Israelites ritually circling the walled city of Jericho, begging Almighty God for entry into their Promised Land, we began daily marches around our statehouse and prayed for God’s protection of America, the land of the free.

In-between prayers and laps, we observed the dearth of clergy and religious in our stead — apparently lacking desire or courage or freedom to join us — juxtaposed by the stunning number of so-called Catholics who not only accepted but heartily congratulated the media-appointed “president elect.” We bemoaned Pope Francis’ constant stream of cunning and ambiguous statements that challenge Church teaching; the irrational and dehumanizing response of most bishops to the COVID pandemic; their seeming obsession with physical health and blatant disregard for the spiritual welfare of the flock; their tolerance and even support of anti-Catholic political candidates and elected officials; their outright rejection of the epically pro-life, pro-Catholic Trump Administration; and, finally, their disingenuous, after-the-fact handwringing over the dangerous policies posed by the “president elect” whose candidacy they embraced leading up to the election.

Show Me Catholics represent the many, many Catholics in Missouri and elsewhere who have become disenfranchised and disengaged during the scandalous Jorge Bergoglio papacy . . . who are frustrated by the censorship of good and holy men like Bishop Athanasius Schneider, Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano and Cardinal Raymond Burke within our parishes and dioceses . . . who are weary of vague and saccharine homilies about loving, tolerating and accompanying sinners instead of addressing their sins head-on and praying, fasting and sacrificing for their conversions . . . who are fed up with form letter responses from the chancery to our cries for adherence to the faith of our Fathers . . .  but who are not giving up.

Thus was the inspiration and springboard for ShowMeCatholics.org, where purveyors of the One True Faith can voice their prayers, works, joys and sufferings for Christ the King.
