How would you categorize your political views now?
If I could choose, I would choose a Catholic Monarch who recognized Christ as King. But I don't think I will live to see it. There are not a lot of Monarchists in the good old USA.
A Catholic monarchy would be ideal. The first step in the direction of a monarchy is for tradition to take up residency in the Vatican and for modernism to be evicted.
Are you saying that the apostates currently occupying the Vatican have to be tossed out and replaced by a true Catholic magisterium before a Catholic monarchy can exist anywhere in the world?
For every one tough as steel Catholic soul out there there are a dozen or more weak souls who need a shephard. The strong ones need a shephard too but that's just to keep their vanity under control. So, in short, yes. Rome returning to the Catholic Faith would be an anchor for this world.
It's possible that in the next few decades the U.S. may break apart. Unbloody, God willing. The establishment of a small Catholic republic would be beautiful.
Maybe in the Spokane, WA area :wink: The CMRI and a small SSPX chapel is there and the novus ordo diocese is in bankruptcy (that's financial bankruptcy in addition to the spiritual bankruptcy!)
