Frank Wright – OK DOOMER

Why not believe in better beliefs?

This is an essay about the Doom Cult that tells you Things Can Never Get better, why it is a popular delusion, and how its sale has become a successful and lucrative product line.>In it, I explain how beliefs are popularised and why and that thinking is not what many people think it is.>I then explore the basis of reality and truth in an age when the supply of the mass manufacture of meaning is fuelling demand for alternatives.

Frank Wright – MODERNISM: POLITICS AS RELIGION

As we shall see, the Modern Church is indeed doing the meme.

In this series I summarise the traditional doctrine of the Catholic Church as explained in the masterpiece of Pope St Pius X, Pascendi Dominici Gregis.>

Pascendi (1907) was published as A Catechism of Modernism in 1908.

Comparing this “Catechism of Modernism” with the teachings of the Modern Church, I show how and why the New Religion is not the True Religion.>


CONTENTS

Frank Wright – FOLLOWING THE SCIENCE

Pascendi unmasks the nature of false belief and its consequences.

THE TIMELESS WISDOM OF PASCENDI

Frank Wright – In the footsteps of Christ

The Scala Santa – “Holy Stairs” – in Rome.

It being Christmas, here is a piece I wrote about what it meant to me to realise that Christ was a man, as I walked up the stairs he took to meet Pilate.>


This piece was first published by LifeSiteNews, Christmas Day 2025.

This year has been one of unintended revelation for me, as it has been for the staff, supporters, and readers of LifeSiteNews. In the summer, we saw a palace coup which failed to reputationally assassinate John Henry Westen. This unpleasantness also seems to have been an attempt on the life of LifeSite itself.>A beastly business whose fallout resulted in my presence onstage at a hastily reconvened Rome Life Forum.

Frank Wright – A Poem for Christmas

undefined

The journey of the magi (mosaic), ca. 565. Basilica St Apollinare Nuovo, Ravenna.

In a time when the religion of sentiments seeks to replace that of Christ, here is an unsentimental poem on the impact of Christ on human life.>


TS Eliot’s Journey of the Magi is not what we might expect, raised on Star of Wonder and nativity plays at school. At its end is not the glow of what has come but what we know has now gone. The last word is “death”. What is going on?>Journey of the Magi is a poem about the terrible beauty of realising that Christ is real.

Frank Wright – MACHINE WORSHIP

In this brief series I will explain some of the ideas and processes which have produced a system of machine worship, replacing the earlier revolutionary cult of the worship of Man. >Seen from a critical perspective, modern “progress” from the deification of Man to that of his machines is the liberation of mankind into a trap.>


FROM MAN TO MACHINE

Our lives are already shaped by machines.
