Atheists are strange. They claim that belief in God is illogical. However, they fail to see that the Catholic Church uses both faith and reason to understand the existence of God. St. Thomas Aquinas, one of the greatest minds in history, gives us five proofs for God's existence. If you watch this video to the end, you will be prepared to defend the faith and maybe even convert an atheist. As Isaac Newton observed, “A man who thinks halfheartedly will not believe in God, but a man who truly thinks has to believe in God.” First Proof: Motion Have you ever watched dominos fall? What caused the last domino in the series to fall? The logical answer is the one before. And if I asked you what knocked that domino down, you would say the one before it, and so on. Eventually, you would trace it back to the first domino, which caused all the other dominos to fall. This is one of the ways St. Thomas Aquinas argues for God’s existence. In other words, whatever is set in motion is put in motion by something else. Things don’t just move on their own. A ball doesn’t throw itself but requires a thrower to move, just as a plane needs a pilot to fly. What is motion? Motion is going from potentiality to actuality. Potentiality is having the potential to be x, and actuality is actually becoming x. For example, my morning coffee is hot. But my coffee is potentially cold. If I put my mug in the refrigerator, it will actually become cold. Something cannot go from potentiality to actuality by itself. In other words, it’s impossible for something to move without being put in motion by something else. This applies to Creation. Things are constantly moving and changing, but none of these changes happen by themselves. If you search for the first cause and keep going back far enough, you will conclude that there is a mover that was not moved by another. That is, someone outside the series of motions put everything into motion. This is the only logical explanation for how the series of motions began. This first mover cannot be part of the series, or there would be nothing that could explain his “motion.” In the case of the dominos, it would be the person who knocked down the initial domino. And in the grand scheme of things, this first mover is God. #god #faith #reason Music attribution: "Dreams Become Real" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ "Ever Mindful" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Photo attribution: Interior of the Chapel of St. Basil (1997), by Philip Johnson, on the campus of the University of St. Thomas in Houston Source: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:2024-0105-Chapel_of_St._Basil_interior.jpg Photo taken by: Bobak Ha'Eri, January 5th, 2024.

5 Proofs for God that Destroy Atheism

These arguments leave atheists speechless.

Young pro-life Catholics debate abortion at Franklin & Marshall College, igniting a spark of hope in the hearts of many. Their mission? To defend the right to life of unborn babies. Who would have thought such a fundamental human right would be so contested? Abortion fans at the liberal arts college hotly debated the pro-lifers. In this video, you’ll see abortion arguments debunked one by one. The peaceful TFP volunteers use logic, reason, and creative analogies to challenge the evil of procured abortion. Pray for the TFP team as they journey across the country, defending the most defenseless. Your prayers are invaluable. Your support can help them make a significant impact against the culture of death. Thank you for your support and encouragement in this noble cause. Together, we can protect the most defenseless and innocent. God bless you, and keep up the good fight! #prolife #tfpstudentaction #debate Site: https://www.tfpstudentaction.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tfpstudentaction/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TFPStudentAction Twitter: https://twitter.com/tfpsa
How Saving Lives Infuriates Woke Students

Are babies shrimp or humans?

Will you help us end the sin of abortion? Please sign this TFP pro-life petition at https://tfpstudentaction.org/petitions/defund-planned-parenthood-forever Every year, students from across Pennsylvania gather in Harrisburg to make their voices heard at the March for Life. This powerful event does two things: denounce the sin of abortion and proclaim the sanctity of innocent life, a God-given right. As pro-life students, we can stand together, share our message, and inspire others to join our cause. TFP Student Action is on the frontline of this noble crusade for the unborn. TFP’s marching band – with bagpipes and drums – was bolstered by St. Louis de Montfort Academy students. In this video, pro-life Americans answer three questions: 1. Is the future pro-life or pro-abortion? 2. Is abortion ever a legitimate “choice”? 3. Will God bless America if America supports abortion? On September 23, 2024, despite the rain, thousands proudly attended the Pennsylvania March for Life. Their presence, youthful energy, and uplifting prayers were a testament to the strength of our cause and an inspiration for all. With the grace of God, the culture of death will soon crumble. Let's unite, raise our voices, and stand up for the rights of the unborn. Together, we can restore a culture that loves God and follows His holy commandments in Pennsylvania and beyond. Join us in our next event and be a part of this noble cause.

Why Do Feminists Hate the Right to Life?

Challenging abortion in the belly of the beast.

Everyone can agree: We have a burning immigration crisis in America. Never have so many crossed the border illegally, and never has the government appeared so unwilling to resolve the problem. As the immigration debate continues, many think that the Catholic Church’s position is one of unconditional charity: no limits, no walls, and no borders. But is that really the case? What does the Bible say about immigration? What does Saint Thomas Aquinas say? Can a medieval Saint solve a modern problem? Well, he does. In his masterpiece, the Summa Theologica, Saint Thomas has gems of wisdom that apply to the national immigration policy debate today. Saint Thomas says: “Man’s relations with foreigners are twofold: peaceful, and hostile: and in directing both kinds of relation the Law contained suitable precepts.” Saint Thomas affirms that not all immigrants are equal. Every nation has the right to decide which immigrants are beneficial, that is, “peaceful,” to the common good. As a matter of self- defense, the State can reject criminals, traitors, enemies and others who it deems harmful to its citizens. The second thing he affirms is that the manner of dealing with immigration is determined by law in the cases of both beneficial and “hostile” immigration. The State has the right and duty to apply its law. Saint Thomas continues: “For the Jews were offered three opportunities of peaceful relations with foreigners. First, when foreigners passed through their land as travelers. Secondly, when they came to dwell in their land as newcomers. And in both these respects the Law made kind provision in its precepts: for it is written, ‘Thou shalt not molest a stranger’” (Exodus 22:21). Saint Thomas says: “Thirdly, when any foreigners wished to be admitted entirely to their fellowship and mode of worship. With regard to these a certain order was observed. For they were not at once admitted to citizenship: just as it was law with some nations that no one was deemed a citizen except after two or three generations, as the Philosopher says (Polit. iii, 1).” Saint Thomas continues: “The reason for this was that if foreigners were allowed to meddle with the affairs of a nation as soon as they settled down in its midst, many dangers might occur, since the foreigners not yet having the common good firmly at heart might attempt something hurtful to the people.” These are some of the thoughts of Saint Thomas Aquinas on immigration based on biblical principles. It’s clear that good immigration policy has two things in mind: First, the nation’s unity; and second, the common good. Immigration should have as its goal integration, not disintegration or segregation. Good immigrants not only desire benefits but they assume the responsibilities of joining into the full fellowship of the nation. By becoming a citizen, a person becomes part of a broader family and not just a shareholder with short-term self-interest. Saint Thomas teaches that immigration must have the common good in mind; it cannot destroy or overwhelm a nation.This explains why so many Americans are uneasy with the flood of mass immigration, flawed catch and release policies, and porous borders. Such bad policy destroys common points of unity and overwhelms the ability of a society to absorb new elements organically into a unified culture. The common good is no longer considered. A proportional immigration can be healthy for society because it injects new life and qualities into a social body. But when it loses that proportion and undermines the purpose of the State, it threatens the well-being of the nation. We should follow the advice of Saint Thomas Aquinas. The nation must practice justice and charity towards all, including foreigners, but it must above all safeguard the common good and its unity. Without that, no country can long endure. #Catholic #immigration #policy Site: https://www.tfpstudentaction.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tfpstudentaction/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TFPStudentAction Twitter: https://twitter.com/tfpsa Picture Attribution: Picture: “Groups of figures outside the Damascus gate, Jerusalem.

What Saint Thomas Says About Immigration

What's the solution?

It sounds too good to be true, but there’s a city in the world that has a zero divorce rate. And near the end of this video, you will see the successful formula that has kept marriages together for generations. More than a formula, it’s a beautiful prayer and a profound Catholic culture that can help restore the family today. In the U.S., the divorce rate is staggering. Close to 50% of marriages fall apart. On top of that, there are illicit unions, couples that shack up, not to mention same-sex counterfeit unions that masquerade as marriage. The family is under attack. And moral values have been torn to bits. But — lo and behold! — despite the moral crisis, there’s a city where the marriage bond is so strong that there’s no record of divorce. The city is Siroki-Brijeg located in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The city’s 26,000 inhabitants of Croatian origin are familiar with adversity. They had to defend their Catholic Faith during the Muslim invasion in the 15th Century. Their Faith was tested again when the country fell under the boot of atheistic communism. Trusted sources report that, “Siroki-Brijeg is remarkable … for in the collective memory of all there has never been a single divorce among the Croatian Catholics of the city.” How do you explain such a remarkable thing? First, the population of the city is almost 100% Catholic, and they live their faith seriously. They consider it a point of honor to defend the indissolubility of marriage and the monogamous family. That means marriage is the sacred union between a man and a woman—as stated in the country’s Constitution. However, what marks this profound religious attitude is that they see marriage as a cross, united with the Cross of Christ. This helps the spouses live their union without romanticism, false expectations, or whimsical illusions. Realistically, we live in a valley of tears. Everyone has defects. And there’s no mutual understanding without the mutual exercise of patience. This Catholic understanding of marriage is what prevents divorce and separations. However, this attitude of fidelity is expressed in a beautiful custom. During their married life, the spouses find strength by praying together before the crucifix, a special crucifix they receive on their wedding day. In the wedding ceremony, the priest blesses the crucifix presented by the bride and groom. He places the bride’s right hand on the crucifix, then that of the groom upon hers, and covers them with a stole. The couple then makes their vows with their hands clasping the crucifix. The priest tells them they have found the ideal “partner” with whom they must share their lives. He says: “You have found your cross! It is a cross that you must love and take with you every day of your lives. Know how to appreciate it.” After kissing the cross, the spouses enthrone it in their home. When trials, misunderstandings, disagreements and difficulties common to all marriages arise, both spouses kneel before the crucifix and with unwavering faith ask for strength to endure them, because Our Lord’s yoke “is easy, and His burden, light.” This attitude is consistent with the belief that the cross will give them strength to overcome their daily trials. The spouses are aware that if one abandons the other, they will abandon Christ. And the source of perseverance comes from the Cross of Christ rather than external factors. The children of these strong unions learn how to venerate the family crucifix and direct their early prayers to the cross. These Catholics learn how to practice, from an early age, that which the immortal Portuguese author Luis de Camões already celebrates with the words: “Thou, who carefully looks for rest in this tempestuous sea of the world, do not expect to find any rest except in Jesus Christ crucified.” #Catholic #marriage #tfpstudentaction Site: https://www.tfpstudentaction.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tfpstudentaction/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TFPStudentAction Twitter: https://twitter.com/tfpsa
The Only City Without Divorce

What a wonderful formula.

As a result, all of my signs have been destroyed.” Although Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., is the oldest Catholic university in the nation, the climate on campus does not favor Catholic teaching or foster respect for the fundamental human right to life. Recently, three pro-life signs posted in the free speech area known as Red Square were vandalized. These signs read: "Abortion is a sin." "Real Catholics oppose abortion." "Abortion is not healthcare." This incident is not the first one, as similar signs put up by Fabrizio, promoting God's marriage and featuring a quote from the Catholic catechism, were also torn down within seconds in the same area last year. "You would expect a straightforward Catholic message to be accepted on a Catholic campus. But, regrettably, the truth is no longer welcome. If a Planned Parenthood sign or a rainbow flag were removed from the same location, what would be the consequences?" asked Fabrizio. “Unfortunately, the culture of death has infiltrated even Catholic institutions. But the truth still stands: Being Catholic and pro-abortion is impossible, Fabrizio continued. “Abortion is a grave sin against God because it kills an innocent human person.” The Catechism of the Catholic Church states: “Human life must be respected and protected absolutely from the moment of conception. From the first moment of his existence, a human being must be recognized as having the rights of a person -- among which is the inviolable right of every innocent being to life.” Despite the hostile climate on campus, Fabrizio says more students are motivated to restore family values. “The truth is always attractive. And I meet students every day who want to make abortion unthinkable,” he said. “I’m 100% certain that young Catholics who oppose abortion are on the right side of history.” TFP Student Action (http://www.tfpstudentaction.org/) is a national network of 526,000 Catholic students and concerned parents committed to defending traditional moral values and working to restore Christian Civilization in America. #georgetown #university Site: https://www.tfpstudentaction.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tfpstudentaction/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TFPStudentAction Twitter: https://twitter.com/tfpsa Music attribution: "Realness" by Kai Engel is licensed under an attribution License.

Who will defend the most innocent?

To defund Planned Parenthood, go to https://tfpstudentaction.org/petitions/defund-planned-parenthood-forever Hundreds of pro-lifers gathered for the annual Gift of Life Walk in New York City to defend the unborn. Among them were members of TFP Student Action and the Saint Louis de Montfort Academy. Undaunted by torrential rain, the pro-life advocates assembled in Foley Square on March 23, 2024 to hear a line-up of speakers before setting off down Broadway Avenue, the Canyon of Heroes, in Manhattan’s financial district. Abortion activists, however, mobilized to disrupt the event with noise makers and obscene chants. They displayed vulgar pro-abortion signs, LGBT pride flags, and rainbow umbrellas as they taunted and screamed “my body, my choice” and other vile insults. Even before the march commenced, New York Police Department officers arrested a handful of pro-abortion troublemakers for misconduct, including one man wearing a satanic face mask. In stark contrast, the pro-life gathering was prayerful and patriotic, with American flags and rosaries on prominent display. Dawn Eskew, president of Personhood Education New York, introduced local pro-life leaders, activists, and clergy who addressed the crowd assembled in the plaza despite the heavy rainfall and flood warning. Speakers included the Very Rev. Joseph Coffey, auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA, pro-life priest Fr. Stephen Imabarrato, and Catherine Donohoe, president of the Pregnancy Service Network. “We are standing up for God’s rights, for the right to life, and the future of our nation,” said TFP Student Action director John Ritchie. “New York City is a dark place, but the light of Christ is visible today as we march down Broadway for such a just and noble cause.” #unborn #tfpstudentaction #prolife #prochoice Site: https://www.tfpstudentaction.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tfpstudentaction/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TFPStudentAction Twitter: https://twitter.com/tfpsa Music attribution: Somnolence by Kai Engel is licensed under an Attribution License (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) Permissions beyond the scope of this license may be available at kai-engel.com Source: https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Kai_Engel/ICD-10/Kai_Engel_-_ICD-10_-_01_Somnolence/ Artist: https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Kai_Engel/

But Ivy League students at Brown University have a different opinion: Woke students elevate abortion above innocent life. That’s what TFP Student Action volunteers found out when they visited the campus during their week-long tour in defense of the unborn. While TFP volunteers prayed peacefully, pro-abortion students reacted in strange ways. One abortion advocate spat at the pro-life sign that reads, “Abortion offends God!” Other students ripped up TFP flyers or played instruments to disrupt the peaceful demonstration. One student in particular used a saxophone to provoke a reaction. But TFP members remained calm and on message. Despite liberal hostility, these Catholic young men stood firm in their faith and conviction that abortion is a grave sin against God. The innocent in the womb must be protected. #brownuniversity Site: https://www.tfpstudentaction.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tfpstudentaction/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TFPStudentAction Twitter: https://twitter.com/tfpsa
Extremely Woke Campus Panics Over Peaceful Pro-Life Crusade

TFP goes to Brown University.

If you oppose abortion, sign the petition to defund Planned Parenthood at https://tfpstudentaction.org/petitions/defund-planned-parenthood-forever Within 24 hours, two extremely different marches took place in Washington, D.C.: The March for Life and The Women's March. The annual March for Life is the largest pro-life event in the world. This event is prayerful, patriotic, and joyful. In complete contrast, the Women's March promotes abortion, feminism, gender ideology, transgenderism, and homosexuality. This event is woke, angry, and vulgar. TFP Student Action went to both marches to ask the following questions: What word describes your mood the most: joy or anger. What is a woman’s greatest gift? True or false: Only women can be mothers. Do you like the concept of One Nation Under God? What does abortion do? People at both marches answered the same questions in vastly different ways, revealing a profound divide within the nation between the Godly and ungodly. These two marches represent two Americas. One America loves God and fights for moral values. The other America attacks family values. In this battle for the soul of our nation, between the right to life and abortion, between right and wrong, between truth and falsehood, where do you stand? Which America will you fight for? Which march would you go to? #prolife #vs #abortion Site: https://www.tfpstudentaction.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tfpstudentaction/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TFPStudentAction Twitter: https://twitter.com/tfpsa
