This should be a great documentary. Filmed on location in the Holy Land.

Sweet.
This will be certain to upset the ROP and their lapdogs in the American press.
Enjoy!

Great info. My daughter’s social studies class will feature a unit on the Crusades and from what I’ve read of her textbook, it ... ahem... lacks a lot of information. This series will be recorded and watched in our house. Thanks!

You can say that again. Thank you, EWTN.

"How long before Pope Francis pulls the plug on EWTN?"

He can't and won't, it's in the hands of the laity, no Bishop can touch it.

I don't think he could if he wanted to, the way the organization is structured.

Couldn’t he order the Nuns and the Priests to abandon their commitments at EWTN?

No, because the network was founded by a nun (Mother Angelica) on her own. It is still owned and run by the sisters and supported by donations. The Vatican does not monetarily support it or is involved in the content or operations. Mother Angelica once said that if she ever was in the position that she had to turn it over to the US bishops, she’d blow the whole damn thing up.

The Crusades bet back the invasion of Islam in the Holy Land and in Europe. I think it is definitely time to launch new Crusades.

That she did. She meant it too.

It doesn't belong to the Pope. The US Bishops tried, and failed, then tried to create a competitor network. I think IT failed, as well.

Mother had to battle Mahoney to get her project going. She won, and won big. Her quote is dead on. Everything they touch turns to dust.
