[Dr Matthew Raphael Johnson](https://www.rusjournal.org/) looks at the most extreme form of asceticism found within the Orthodox Church.
“Where is the wise person? Where is the teacher of the law? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe” (I Corinthians 1: 20-22).
“Holy Foolishness” or “Holy Insanity” (the Russian iurodstvo) is the most extreme form of monastic self abasement and asceticism humanly possible. It consists in the renouncing of mind and virtue with complete inner self-awareness. It is the voluntary acceptance of the image of an insane and immoral person. Because such people have nothing anyone can take away, they're free to mock and attack the oligarchs. It's based on the mockery and parody of vanity. It's based on the rejection of “rule following” as the foundation of Christian life. Most of all, it's a mockery of the “respectable,” middle class form of Christianity; the Christianity of the virtue-signalers and conformists. The “Holy Fools” shock the complacent into examining their lives.
[Dr Matthew Raphael Johnson](https://www.rusjournal.org/) discusses Chairman Mao Zedong's “Great Leap Forward”
From 1958 to 1962, 50 million Chinese lost their lives due to the implementation of the largest social experiment in human history. The Great Leap Forward was a bloody period of unsuccessful forced industrialization leading to zero industry and food shortages so bad that the eating of corpses became commonplace.
Despite this, Mao today is considered a profound social theorist and humanitarian. Western journalists, idiotic at their best, fully supported Mao's propaganda without criticism or comment so even today, Mao's inhuman crimes – fully admitted by Party documents of the time – are still largely unknown.

Sven Longshanks and Dr Matthew Raphael Johnson discuss the recent firing of progressives and liberals from the Pentagon.
Trump has finally got rid of the defense secretary who prevented him from deploying troops in the summer when Black mobs destroyed $5Billion worth of property and killed or injured countless numbers of people.
The Democrats are shrieking about a coup and a military takeover of the Whitehouse, but what seems more likely is a genuine removal of troops from Afghanistan.

[Sven Longshanks](https://gab.com/SvenLongshanks) looks at two attacks on the innocence of children, by UNICEF and Nickelodeon.
[A UNICEF report](https://c-fam.org/friday_fax/unicef-report-says-pornography-not-always-harmful-to-children/) is claiming pornography does not harm children because they were neither happy nor sad after seeing it.
They also say that it could be against a child’s human rights to prevent access to it.
[Nickelodeon have produced](https://www.christianpost.com/news/blues-clues-lgbt-pride-video-features-drag-queen.html) a cartoon showing various types of homosexual and transgender as families marching in a gay pride parade.
One of the teddy bears has scars from a mastectomy.
Both organisations claim to have children’s best interests at heart, but age-inappropriate knowledge of sex and gender issues has long been seen as proof that a child has been abused.

[Grandpa Dan](https://www.radioalbion.com/search/label/Grandpa%20Dan?&max-results=5) hosts gives us un update on his medical travails in the American health care system.
Parish of the Patriots contains one of a kind thought provoking discussion as well as a Christian specific message that you won’t find anywhere else. If you get something out of the show, your voluntary financial support is very much appreciated. If you wish to be a financial supporter, you can find out how at the bottom of this page.
While it can be disheartening to think people will follow just about anything they are told by authority, it is important to remember there are limits. In no time at all the system has gone from offering sweet candy if you will simply “get into the van” to threatening to hit you over the head and force you in. While this method is generally effective in the short term, historically speaking it always has a relatively short shelf life.
In order to keep this tactic going, the oppressor must become even more belligerent but the longer it drags on, the more fatigue sets in. Then when you factor in other things such as the inevitable collapse of the economy and whether or not these morons manage to get this country into a war that can’t be won, it quickly becomes apparent that what we are witnessing today cannot go on forever. Those who rule over us are not some omnipotent and all powerful beings. They are people and truth be told, people who are short sighted and in a lot of ways not very smart.
Christmas has snuck up on us once again. Thus we will have a Christmas Christian specific message/sermon this week (try saying that three times fast). Christmas and Easter are the two times a year that most self professed Christians will bother to attend some form of church service. Alas, most Christmas sermons are pretty predictable as far as content. Not so here at The Parish of the Patriots. This week we too will talk about the glory and the hope represented by the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
However we will not stop there. Christ came to this world and died for our sins. Sadly the cost of this is played down and cheapened by what passes as the church today. This week we will discuss what is required of us. As we do so, it will quickly become apparent that a lot of work and effort is required on our part. This is only right considering the enormous price that was paid on our behalf.

Sven Longshanks and Grandpa Lampshade look at some of the ludicrous decisions that led to the UK Corona lockdown.
For the last six months we have been told that the UK government is ‘following the science’ and that any conflicting information about the virus is dangerous and should be censored.
Yet it has been revealed this week that government scientists were using Wikipedia as their source for information and they did not even have one coronavirus specialist on their team.

Sven Longshanks and Matt Johnson discuss the fake revolution happening in Thailand and the western forces behind it.
Thailand is too close to China for Washington’s liking, so the country is experiencing protests and riots led by ‘students’.
These ‘students’ have been groomed and trained for years by NGOs funded by Washington’s NED and western journalists are producing the same fake news we are used to seeing elsewhere, omitting facts and creating a false narrative designed to help topple the Thai monarchy.

[Sven Longshanks](https://linktr.ee/svenlongshanks), [TruthVids](https://truthvids.net/) and [PatriArt](https://t.me/PatrioticArtsCommunity) discuss the fulfilment of Augustine’s curse on the Britons.
As the Britons would not accept Rome’s authority over their church, Augustine cursed them to meet death at the hands of their enemies, the Saxons.
Ethelbert the King of Kent where Augustine was staying, then instigated Ethelfrid the pagan king of Northumbria to attack Chester.
1200 unarmed priests of the Bangor University were massacred by him and the university put to the torch, which eventually led to Cadwallo teaming up with Penda and swearing to leave no Saxon alive between the Firth and the Humber.

[Sven Longshanks](https://gab.com/SvenLongshanks) and Max Musson discuss the early life of Captain Robert Falcon Scott.
Captain Scott was from a wealthy family, yet he was working at just 13 years of age on naval vessels, spending his days high up the top of the rigging.
He showed outstanding skills from childhood and a chance meeting would see him later leading the first trip to the Antarctic.
In this episode he finally gets picked to lead the Antarctic expedition, because he wanted ‘the freedom to develop more widely’ and we learn about the strict discipline the navy had at this time.
