  • #185 What Makes a War “Just?” - Joe Heschmeyer
    Jun 26 2025
    With the conflict between Israel, Hamas and now the United States Bombing Iran, there is a lot of disagreement even among Catholics on whether these actions are just. Joe shows Church teaching on just war to help us break through the noise. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and I want to talk about the concept of just war because there are a lot of conflicts going on in the world right now in places like Ukraine and Israel and the Palestinian Territories in Iran and probably many other places around the world that are not making the news to the same de...

  • #184 Does The Bible Command Christians to Support Israel? - Joe Heschmeyer
    Jun 24 2025
    Joe looks at Dispensationalism and whether the Bible actually teaches that Christians must support the modern state of Israel. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer, and one of the most contentious topics right now is this question of whether we should support Israel in hiss ongoing fight against Hamas and now against Iran. And there are people who I respect who answer both sides of that question, but I want to look at one particular argument that is sometimes made. It was made recently by Senator Ted Cruz in his Tucker Carlson interview. It’s this a...

  • #183 Vlad Savchuk’s 10 Catholic Distortions REBUTTED - Joe Heschmeyer
    Jun 19 2025
    Joe responds to Pastor Vlad Savchuk and his video Catholics vs Christianity. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer, and today I want to respond to a series of arguments against Catholicism made by the popular Evangelical pastor, VLA de Savchuk. And full disclosure, I’m not particularly familiar with him. I’ve seen a few clips of him, but it turns out he’s massively popular on YouTube, so I’m going to try to be as fair as I can to him. It’s clear that we run in kind of different spaces. His blog is mostly focused on, as far as ...

  • #182 You’re misunderstanding “Love” and “Hate” in Romans 9 - Joe Heschmeyer
    Jun 17 2025
    Joe demonstrates how common English translations of the Bible don’t capture the whole reality of what ancient Jews and Christians understood about “love” and “hate.” Understanding the old world meaning of these words will make you see the Bible in a completely new context. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe, Heschmeyer, and one of the things that can startle readers of the Bible is when we read that God loves one individual or group and hates another. For instance, St. Paul explains the plan of God by saying that Jacob I loved, but he...

  • #181 Did Redeemed Zoomer Strawman My Argument Against Calvinism? - Joe Heschmeyer
    Jun 12 2025
    Joe’s response to Redeemed Zoomer (and the other Calvinists) who said he was strawmanning Calvinism in my last video. Transcript: Joe: If you can watch ’em in the video, skip my entire third part where I lay out how this is a logical contradiction and he just says, well, let me know if I missed anything important. You did. You missed the crux of the argument. Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and I’d originally planned to do an episode unpacking the biblical usage of terms like love and hate. Particularly when you hear God saying things like, Jacob, h...

  • #180 “God Probably Hates You…” | How Calvinism Breaks Logic - Joe Heschmeyer
    Jun 10 2025
    Today Joe demonstrates how Calvinism is actually completely illogical, and how if true, it demands that Christians have more love than God…not joking. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer, and as far as I can tell, Calvinism is logically impossible. That is, I don’t just disagree with how Calvinists interpret scripture and theology reform, Protestantism seemingly cannot be true because it doesn’t actually make logical sense within its own rules. Now, I realize that’s a big claim and I’m about to set out an argument that I don...

  • #179 Throwing Out Scripture to Save Sola Scriptura - Joe Heschmeyer
    Jun 5 2025
    Joe tackles a big issue surrounding the canon of Scripture, particularly Mark 16. Wes Huff made a good video explaining the debate between scholars one whether Mark 16 is inspired or not. Joe weighs in with a definitive answer… Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe, Heschmeyer, and I want to explore the bright ending to the gospel of Mark. Now that might sound obscure, but I want to suggest that Jeffrey Riddle is onto something when he declares that contemporary Christians are in the middle of a canonical crisis, a crisis about which books and which parts of bo...

  • #178 The Christian Way to Respond to Pride Month… - Joe Heschmeyer
    Jun 3 2025
    Joe explains why devotion to the Sacred Heart is the remedy to Pride Month, but what exactly DOES that look like? Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and as we enter the month of June, we are once again reminded that the secular, particularly corporate world is celebrating Pride Month. It’s been very in your face for years now, and I’m sure many of my fellow Christians are getting sick of it all. And you might know as well that for us as Catholics, June is also the month dedicated to the sacred heart of Jesus. Now, in response to so-called Pr...
