Description

This episode with John Frankman takes you on a journey with us as we meander through topics such as Rob Schneider's conversion, the new Netflix docuseries called "Mysteries of the Faith, and, finally, the story of former Green Beret John Frankman. We also chat on our new initiative to get our audience more involved by inviting people for brief on-screen chats.As we move along, we dive deep into the contrasts of secular and religious perspectives in contemporary documentaries and their impact on society. We exchanged views on Rob's disagreement with the Netflix documentary, our shared appreciation of the beauty it showed, and the traditions surrounding the veneration of relics. This thought-provoking discussion explores the tensions between the Protestant Reformation's iconoclasm and the present-day phenomenon of Catholics tearing down their own culture.As we approach the show's midpoint, we bring on former Army special forces Green Beret John Frankman.  John tells his story of how he had to choose his moral and religious beliefs over service to his nation in the military. We discuss the political indoctrination currently happening in the country and its impact on military readiness. We also share advice for families with sons intending to join the military and express our concerns about vaccine mandates. This episode offers an enlightening and thought-provoking discussion that many listeners grappling with similar situations will find resonating.https://www.change.org/p/petition-for-a-congressional-investigation-of-illegal-department-of-defense-activity********************************************************https://www.avoidingbabylon.comLocals Community:  https://avoidingbabylon.locals.comStore:  https://avoiding-babylon.sellfy.store/RSS Feed for Podcast Apps: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1987412.rssSpiritusTV:  https://spiritustv.com/@avoidingbabylonRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-1626455Odysee:  https://odysee.com/@AvoidingBabylonBuzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched! Start for FREE Support the showCheck out our new store!

Avoiding Babylon was started during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. During these difficult and dark days, when most of us were isolated from family, friends, our parishes, and even the Sacraments themselves, this channel was started as a statement of standing against the tyrannical mandates that many of us were living under. Since those early days, this channel has morphed into an amazing community of friends…no…more than friends…Christian brothers and sisters…who have grown in joy and charity. As we see it, our job here at Avoiding Babylon is to remind ourselves and those who enjoy the channel that being Catholic is a joyful and exciting experience. We seek true Catholic fraternity and eutrapelia with other Catholics who, like us, are doing their best to live out their vocation with the help of God’s Grace.  Above all, we try to bring humor and joy to the craziness of this fallen world, for as Hillaire Belloc has famously said:“Wherever the Catholic sun doth shine,There’s always laughter and good red wine.At least I’ve always found it so.Benedicamus Domino!”
