| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to James Popery. I'm Joe Heschmire. And today I want to try to draw good out of a bad |
| 0:05.0 | situation. Now, if you are from Kansas or nearby, and particularly if you're a Catholic, there's a |
| 0:12.0 | good chance you know the bad situation I'm referring to. On March 28th, which if you're watching this on |
| 0:17.0 | the day it comes out, first on good on you, and second, it's tomorrow. |
| 0:22.2 | On March 28, 2025, there is a planned black mass celebrated by a satanic group called the |
| 0:29.0 | Satanic grotto intended to mock the Eucharist and to mock the mass. |
| 0:34.4 | And I'm going to explain a little more about what all of those things are |
| 0:37.5 | about. And also, and maybe more importantly, how I think this is actually really important for us |
| 0:44.7 | to take seriously, not in a way where we get alarmed or terrified by it, but in a way that we do |

| 1:05.9 | the mass in particular. And if you are maybe someone discerning Catholicism, not sure what you should make of the |
| 1:12.1 | mass, that's good information for you to know. And I think that should help you to make the right |
| 1:16.9 | decision. So with that said, I got to do a little bit of background, just explaining when we talk |
| 1:22.0 | about Satanism, when we talk about the black masses, all that stuff, what do we mean by that? Because we can have this |
| 1:28.6 | idea of just, you know, kind of the cinematic version of Satanism, just this cult of people |
| 1:34.1 | going around murdering innocent people and offering them to the devil and like that. It's not |
| 1:38.8 | really like that. And many so-called Satanists are actually just atheists kind of larping, |
| 1:45.4 | kind of Renaissance fair atheist. I heard someone recently described them as where it's just |
| 1:50.5 | people who want to dress up to be provocative or spooky. Now, please understand, opening a door, |
