@@Murph_gaming Would you mind explaining the concept rather than pulling out a quote without even letting us know who said it? I'm not sure if you're familiar with the quote "Murph_gaming is wrong"
@Murph_gaming That's a (relatively) modern saying by Lord Acton. I often find that powerlessness corrupts because people without power are forced into ethically dubious compromises just to get by.
@@noahedlen8053 The concept is simple...Kings that have concentrated power will abuse it against those that oppose their policies, and there will be no recourse for the oppressed.
@@Murph_gamingwhich is why we want monarchy. You were taught wrong on purpose, absolute power is not something proper to monarchy, but is much more common in republics. Because one man can be opposed, but to oppose the people is another thing entirely
We are promoting this eventuality as well - A Catholic Monarchy. It is good to speak of this publicly now and prepare the minds of the holy ones to be ready. It will not come easy and our One Holy Catholic Faith and virtuous lives will make this a reality hopefully in my lifetime. I have been praying for this at Mass daily and the fruits are beginning to show buds, soon blossoms and then it happens. These are exciting times for goodness. Please feel free to contact me if you'd like. We have much to learn. Peace, Fr. Jim
Great vid. I agree. Democracy is like the movie idiocracy. Voters vote blindly in their own self interest. Ignorant citizens. Doesn’t work. Praise the lord
You say that as if most kings through history weren't just as ignorant as your average American. The tsars of Russia, the emperors of China, Napoleon the 3rd of France, even the pope himself lost the papal states because he was to ignorant to see the writing on the wall and adapt to survive a post industrial world. And all of that is ignoring the biggest and most incompetent elephant in the room, the Habsburgs. There is a reason that the only monarchies around today are either totalitarian Petro states or completely ceremonial; it's because monarchs were generally too stagnant and incompetent to survive the complexities of a post industrial world.
@@CatholicMonarchistPodcast The biggest issue now is the error that power and authority comes from the people. Power comes from God. The reason that things are so bad likely is because of the antipopes who have been in the Vatican. The pope is Pope Gregory XVIII. See tcwblog.
There is a lot of Traditionalist literature about this topic sadly forgotten, the Jacobites, the Spanish Carlistas, the French Reactionaries. There’s even a branch of Anarcocapitalism, mostly catholic, that push for a decentralize traditional monarchy
It used to be only people who are annointed by the priests. If you can stomach that, then catholic monarchy can exist once again because the monarch is answerable not just to the people below him but to the church and God above him.
@@newtonia-uo4889 Yes, anointed after they take the crown from the bloody fingertips of the old king they usurped. Historically, monarchs are just the most successful warlords and their descendants.
Interestingly, so many royal families are in the United States such as Habsburg/Golitzine in Houston and Selassie. Catholic and Orthodox laity need to promote these concepts in daily discourse.
Christian Monarchy The calling comes from the highest source, from God Himself! It (monarchy) is God's grace & dignity to Earth in order to give Ordinary People an ideal to strive toward & aspire after as an example of nobility & duty in their wretched lives in this valley of tears. Monarchy is a calling from God, a vocation. He (the monarch) is grounded in an Abbey or Cathedral, not a government building. He is anointed, not appointed. It is an Archbishop that places the Crown upon His head, not a minister or public servant. Which means that He is answerable to God in his duty, not to the public. It is a perennial catholic principle that all authority comes from God. Reflecting on the above, I would like to add the following consideration: The general & real malaise that we as a people of a nation & faithful in the Church are experiencing at the present moment is due to the fact that we are suffering unduly from the want of Monarchy in the State & of a Supreme Pontiff (that is monarchical) in the Church.
The book named "After the Warning to 2038 by Bruce Cyr, copyright 2017, page 333, tells about the prophecy of the powerful monarch and the holy Pope beginning the sixth church age, which is after this fifth church age ends in about year 2038. Prophecy given by Father Bartholomew Holzhauser. The back cover shows these 2 holy men, they are adults today.❤
I’m not Christian but I do favor a semi-absolute monarchy over a total democracy or a republic. I wasn’t sure exactly what to expect when I clicked on this video, but I was a bit surprised to find some common ground. I wouldn’t support a Catholic or even a general Christian monarch, but I definitely agree a monarch that answers to a higher power and does right by the people to secure their needs rather than their desires is an ideal system and far better than a republic based democracy.
Your quote misses the point of democracy entirely. A better one would be "In a monarchy one person must be truely and completely selfless, whereas in a democracy the majority of people need only be selfish"
I can see monarchy taking a bad turn these days. To me, it seems like any form of government has 2 fundamental flaws: 1) Leaders can be corrupted through personal gain, special interest, coersion etc. 2) Leaders can mistake what is best for their people, even when being genuine. Nowadays, it seems like democracy is falling to both of these flaws. Would a monarchy be better insulated against this?
Wouldn't it be something if this movement gathered enough momentum and people picked a spot and concentrated there. Then, separate (somehow - don't ask me) as a Catholic monarch state.
Presidents and politicians come and go in a system that rewards self interest, a King belongs to the nation and the nation belongs to the King, they are inseparable and he has been aware of this from his earliest years. Can you imagine the change in society if politicians and CEOs were tied indefinitely to their decisions
I am myself a deeply believing christian since I came to faith at the age of 16, and a monarchist (even if I am protestant) so I share a lot of your views. I support our present Swedish monarchy and I support Maria Vladimirovna Romanov in the case of Russia and for example Louis XX in the case of France. (He might be "my candidate". there). God bless you. However I don´t support absolute - but constitutional - monarchy. combined with democracy as the best form of state 🙂
The Bible does say she is going to bring all her daughter churches back into the fold for one last hurrah (Isaiah 47). But it won’t last long as she comes to her ignominious end( Revelation 18) thank God!!!
Wisdom (our Lord) has established his House* (Kingdom on earth) on Seven (7) Pillars long time ago when He offered Himself on the Cross. See Proverbs 9:1. 1 Timothy 3:15. *The pillar and bulwark of truth, the church of the living God.
In this example we see the strong alliance between an catholic Monarch and his faith Otto von Habsburg demands to go to the church where all His ancestres were before The monk ask who are you And the preceptor tell all his Name and titles The monk refused entry and tell he not know the Person So the preceptor knock second time and again the question Who is there Again the preceptor tell about all honours Otto got in his life Again refused with We don't know him Again the preceptor knock and when the question comes again He answer Otto a poor sinner And the monk says: So may he come in.

The pre-American experience in Christian and Catholic Europe is the most concrete, empirical evidence for why your proposal is deeply misguided. State religions did not promote great virtue and social peace-they didn't even promote good Christianity. Just look at the condition of religious belief in most of Europe today: you don't think that has anything to do with hundreds of years of religious disputation and warfare? You also fail to recognize the value of democratic rule when structured with many checks and balances. We certainly do not have pure democracy in the US; the gov't is republican in character. And while it may be hard for the majority to be virtuous, it's very easy for one unencumbered king, or a small religious aristocracy, to be corrupted and lead an entire society astray. Power corrupts; how many times do we need to relearn that lesson? Your personal beliefs are yours to hold, but you can't impose them on others since they are not the common possession of all American citizens (and of course it violates the Constitution).
Hear we go. Another Fake Christian who pretends to be one while Picking and Choosing whatever Verses he wants while disregarding those he Disagrees with.
Charles A. Coulombe and Timothy Gordon also advocate Catholic monarchism. I remember them discussing it with Dr. Taylor Marshall a while back. Deus vult! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_A._Coulombe
Because of the degradation of the monarchy over hundreds of years, I think the monarchy should be elected. Like a president elected by Governors for life.
So what if the person elected were Biden or AOC, both Catholics. Would you be ok with that for life or would you want a chance to try a different approach after a while and contribute to what that might be?
Monarchy is good if king is honest, kind to progress for nation. Otherwise, its not good. Government system like monarch, dictatorship, democracy, commmunist has pros and cons and changes from time to time.
Look at the so called Catholic countries. Spain has a monarchy. A Catholic monarchy won't save, and clean up our society. We should look at Orthodoxy. The Faith is growing in Orthodox countries.
A monarchy, with absolutely no teeth, whose King apostatized in favor of selling his country out to the liberals and communists. It's not a monarchy. It's a republic with a funny circus.
1. I don't like the chances of having an unchosen tyrant. 2. Liberty/freedom IS at the core of Catholic faith, because there is no live withoyt freedom to chose, to follow Christ or now. 3. Hence, religious freedom is fundamental, you can't coerce people to believe. 4. PS: Charles Maurras is not AT ALL a good Catholic source.
Pope Bonifice VIII, in 1302, wrote: “We declare, we set forth, we define that submission to the Roman pontiff is necessary for the salvation of any human creature.” The Church Council of Florence, in 1422, proclaimed: “We firmly believe and profess and teach that no one outside the Catholic faith, neither the pagans nor the Jews, nor heretics nor schismatics are able to participate in eternal life. They will go to the eternal fire that has been prepared for the devil and his angels unless they become members of the Church before they die. No man or woman, though generous in giving alms, though they shed their blood for Christ, is able to be saved unless they are in full communion with the Catholic Church.”
it isn't about monarchy. German Empire, British Empire were one of the best countries to live in before ww1. Fact is that if Central Powers won then the monarchies would still be around and the technology and life expectancy wouldn't change that much. Saying that people had worse lifes because of monarchy is like saying that a man that got shot died because of a man that created the first gun
This only seems self-evident from the limited perspective of a Westerner. From a global perspective, modern monarchies have more wealth per capita, less political corruption, and better social services than their democratic neighbors.
2 parallel developments do not necessarily cause each other. Technology Improves our lives, Democracy ruins it. Technology is why we live under our current conditions. Otherwise we'd all be peasants working from birth to death on subsistence farms.

This is deeply anti-American, so wouldn't work here. Our founding fathers fought hard to keep religion out of government because of how they saw it destroy Europe in violence.
Americanism is deeply anti-Catholic. This is EXACTLY what America needs because American Protestantism has no clue what real Catholicism is. They have been ingrained with lies. Discern closely of what I speak and in humility seek the truth of what Catholicism is. Peace.
LOL - "The catholic church is God's church" - a bunch of CRAP. Neither God the Father, nor His Son established a corporate hierarchical "church", nor did God establish a monarchy. God's original government was a Theocracy. However, the the people grew tired of that and asked Him for a monarchy. He warned them of the dangers of a monarchy, but they still insisted on one, so, He let them have what they wanted. It was not His choice or idea.
@@AzureSymbiote LOL - A bunch of bunk. Show me where, in the Scripture, the Lord & Saviour established this (exact book, chapter, & verse(s) - not your or some corporate entity's interpretation of what they believe / think / want the Scripture to say). I see nowhere, in the Scripture, where the Original Apostles choose anyone to replace them, when one of them died, other than Matthias, whom they chose to replace Judas as the twelfth apostle, nor do I see anywhere, in the Scripture, where they left instructions and a method for that toe be done.
@@alpscraftshack599 I mean, you just proved through your own writing that they and Jesus would replace themselves when one died. It says clearly that Jesus chose Peter to be the rock of the Church in scripture, instituting a human as the leader (pope) as the body of Christ (church). God is a figure of central of authority who trusts angels and those in his court to share in authority in heaven. "On Earth as it is in Heaven"?... Remember that? Why is it so hard to believe God and therefore Jesus would want a spiritual body of central authority here on Earth after his assumption, when his existence IS central authority?... All of this is in scripture. Which, by the way, whatever scripture you misinterpret or choose to read, was written and conglomerated and translated by catholics and orthodox in the first and second centuries and then onward. God didn't write the Bible, and Jesus didn't write the New Testament, people did. Those people we're Catholic/Orthodox. You should probably listen to the interpretations of the authors, considering they walked with Jesus or were one or two degrees of separation from Christ and the apostles, and the earliest Christian theologians from the first few centuries verify that. It's as if you watch a movie, then tell us the meaning of the movie is one thing, while people in the writers room, their friends, their relatives, their students and immediate descendants are telling us another... That's complete and utter nonsense. What church are you a part of? Who founded it? Mine was founded by Jesus 2000 years ago.
@@billiondollardong I'm sorry- I don'y buy into catholic crap, doctrine, dogma, propaganda, & teaching, nor it's misinterpretation, misrepresentation, mistranslation, perversion, & twisting of the Scriptures. I am a believer & follower of the Lord & Saviour, attempting to live my life, to the best of my fallen human nature, in adherence & obedience to ALL His Teachings and ALL His Commands, as delineated & recorded in the four Gospels - not the teachings, commands, dogmas, doctrines, rantings & ravings, customs & traditions, etc... of deceitful, depraved, evil, fallen, fallen, sinful, wicked men and their created corrupt institutions & organizations.
A Catholic Monarchy would be great as long as it was voluntary, which is impossible because a true Monarchy can never be voluntary. Oppression and threats are required to make subjects stay and obey. Forced religion...No thanks.
So this is what would happen. Whose monarchy is right, pure? Evangelicals in the US would rage against Catholic monarchy. You want Orthodoxy. Now we have to fight wars to figure it out. This guy's opinion is only one. Democracy works better.
