Daniel O'Conor discusses his experience with Matt Fradd and the broader implications of censorship in professional Catholicism, particularly regarding the promotion of extraterrestrial beliefs that contradict core Catholic teachings.
Hello, I'm Daniel O'Conor. One year ago today, I was invited by Matt Fradd to be a guest on his show, Pints with Aquinas. However, you may have noticed that I have not appeared on the show as planned. Today, I want to share what has transpired over the past year, as it is crucial for you to understand the larger issue at play—one that affects the Church as a whole.
This discussion is not merely about Pints with Aquinas or Matt Fradd; it is about a malignant cancer within the Church today. My experience with Matt is just one example of a much darker issue that needs to be addressed. I want to clarify that this is not an attack on Matt himself. I have always liked him and still do. However, he made a decision that I believe was cowardly and hypocritical, and it is essential to discuss this.
To provide context, let me recount the events leading up to my invitation. On April 23, 2024, Matt reached out to me, expressing appreciation for my work and inviting me to appear on his show. Shortly after, his business manager sent a formal invitation, and I promptly accepted. Everything was set for a recording in July 2024.
In a surprising turn, Matt later invited me to present my message at his Chesterton Cigar Lounge, which I believe was a significant gesture, indicating that he valued my perspective. This invitation was not something he extended to all guests, suggesting that he recognized the importance of my message.
However, something changed. After two months of planning, I received an email from Matt's business manager stating that due to his wife's health issues, the recording would need to be postponed. I understood and expressed my willingness to reschedule. Yet, as weeks turned into months, I noticed that Matt was recording other guests while I remained in limbo.
Eventually, I reached out again, only to be told that I had been canceled. Matt's response indicated that people close to him advised against having me on the show. This was perplexing, especially considering that his audience had been asking for my appearance for years.
What is particularly troubling is the hypocrisy in Matt's decision. He has had various controversial figures on his show, including individuals who openly advocate for positions contrary to Catholic teachings. Yet, he felt compelled to cancel my appearance due to external pressures. This raises questions about the integrity of professional Catholicism today.
The reality is that many so-called professional Catholics are willing to engage with ideas that contradict core Catholic beliefs, such as the existence of extraterrestrial beings and their potential role in salvation. This is not just a minor theological debate; it is a significant issue that undermines the very foundation of our faith.
The promotion of extraterrestrial beliefs is not merely a fringe topic; it is a harbinger of a greater deception. The idea that there could be multiple incarnations of God or that Jesus is not the only begotten Son is a direct assault on Catholic dogma. This is precisely what figures like Paul Thigpen advocate, and it is being promoted by major Catholic platforms without any counterarguments.
As I have argued for years, this ET deception is a precursor to the great deception foretold in Scripture. It is essential that we recognize the implications of these beliefs and the dangers they pose to the faith of millions.
I am calling on all Catholics to stand against this trend of censorship and cowardice. We must not tolerate the promotion of ideas that undermine our faith. It is time to demand that our leaders and platforms provide a space for the truth to be heard. We cannot allow the voices of those who defend the traditional Catholic worldview to be silenced.
If you believe in the importance of this message, I urge you to reach out to larger Catholic platforms and advocate for the inclusion of voices that challenge the ET deception. We must ensure that the truth is not only defended but also promoted in the face of growing opposition.
In conclusion, my experience with Matt Fradd is a microcosm of a larger issue within professional Catholicism. We are witnessing a troubling trend where the truth is being suppressed in favor of popular but erroneous beliefs. It is our duty as Catholics to fight against this cancer and to uphold the teachings of our faith. Let us not be silent any longer. God bless you all.
