How Does It Tie Into The Marian Apparitions?
This week on A Podcast About Catholic Things, Eric (The Ambassador of Common Sense) and Dan (The Ambassador Of Nonsense) discuss The Visitation--the second joyful mystery of the rosary.

Why didn't Zechariah believe the angel? And what does this all have to do with modern (and not so modern) Marian apparitions? Fatima, Lordes, Guadalupe ..read more

Where Did It Come From And When Will It End?
