How the Jesuits Silence Their Own—Karen Hall

To Watch The Full Uncensored Version Visit The True North Movement https://www.patrickcoffin.media/the-true-north-movement/ Karen Hall is a prolific TV writer, producer, and convert to the Faith. She has received seven Emmy Award nominations and six Writers Guild of America award nominations. Chances are excellent you’ve loved watched shows she has written. (Start the list with Hill Street Blues, M.A.S.H., Moonlighting, Northern Exposure, I'll Fly Away, Judging Amy and The Good Wife). Her new book, her first non-fiction work, tackles the silencing of Father Paul Mankowski, SJ by the Jesuit superiors who could not abide a practicing Catholic in their midst. Mankowski, who died suddenly of an aneurysm on September 3, 2020, was a scholar, philologist, confessor, and professor of Scripture. He was also a writer of immense talent: charm, force, and wit. He was modern in the sense of addressing contemporary crises with Catholic truth, but also a true son of the Company of Jesus more in the mold of its founder, St. Ignatius of Loyola than the typical lavender-liberal Jesuits that dominate the landscape today. He was also silenced and sidelined by his superiors for Wrong Think. And yet, he obeyed and persevered to a degree that must be called heroic. Hall’s very enjoyable book is not just a spiritual biography, but a window onto the chain-of-command dynamics of the post Vatican II Catholic Church, which have become even more severe under the current Argentine regime in Rome. In this episode, you will learn: How Hall applied top-flight storytelling skills to tell the tale, with admirable detail, of an unheralded hero in the Church. The reasons why Mankowski stayed and fought in his own way against Church corruption by remaining faithful to his vow of obedience come what may How the faithful Jesuit’s witness led to an upgraded edition of her novel Dark Debts The inciting incident—criticizing pro-abortion Jesuit Congressman Robert Drinan, SJ— that began his targeting by corrupt homosexuality superiors Mankowski’s fervent, often humorous critique of the sacred cows of the Catholic left: feminism, liturgical innovation, and “social justicism” Why we need more witnesses to the gospel without compromise Resources mentioned in this episode: The Sound of Silence: The Life and Cancelling of a Heroic Jesuit Priest by Karen Hall
