The thing is we also need political commentators who have a Catholic moral compass that bring reason to non-Catholics. If Knowles we're to be more outspoken about Catholicism on his show, it's possible that he would have a smaller non-Catholic viewership. It would be great if he went on more Catholic shows like this; but I think his show has to stay the way it is.

Michael Knowles and John Doyle are my top 2, though not necessarily in that order.
I’m a 32 year old wife and mother of 2 young boys. Earlier this year I started my conversion to Christianity and now Catholicism. I’m currently in RCIA. I’m only halfway through this conversation, however, I love hearing about Michael Knowles’ story of becoming a Catholic. Many parts I can relate too, like the simplicity of just knowing it’s true and once you see it you can’t unsee it. I have to thank Michael and Matt Walsh for my own journey to Catholicism. I’d watch daily wire and videos on Catholicism and it definitely turned me in that direction. I have such a greater appreciation for the sacrament of marriage and the roles my husband and I have. My husband is not Catholic but went to Catholic school and is familiar so I'm praying for his conversion 🙏 God bless you both! I enjoy these conversations so much!

According to the Catholic religion, the rosary was given to the church in the year 1214 by St. Dominic, a priest who claimed to have received it from an apparition (ghost) of Mary. Scripture clearly states that *it takes 2 Witnesses* to make a thing so. Deuteronomy. 19: 15 One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sins: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established. Matthew 18: 16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. 2Corinthians 13: 1 This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established. The rosary was given by *only one man* , a suspect priest. Michael Knowles and every Catholic are just naive and indoctrinated enough to believe this nonsense. Now go do your *OWN* homework.

“My wife and I realized everything they had told us was wrong….” OH WOW SAME. I don’t know how to agree enough. I had that feeling again and again when I came to the Catholic Church, every time I learned about it read about some of the catholic doctrine I’d think “of course!! 2 plus 2 equals 4!! Why did no one ever teach me how to human correctly before?!?” This world is so, so lost. The Church is the only anchor of Truth, as Christ said in the first place.

@@clopez880 I didn’t use the word “lie” because that implies an intentional misleading. And I don’t think every wrong thing I was taught or told was an intentional act of desiring to mislead me, although it was wrong nonetheless. But off the top of my head I’d say everything I was taught about sexuality and how to look at the value of my own body. Contraception, pornography, extramarital/casual sex, divorce, abortion, same sex acts, masturbation, immodesty-I was taught that all of these things were normal and perfectly harmless. Same with a general view of oneself and others as exploitable objects. I was taught that “consent” was the only measure of morality, rather than what I learned in the church about chastity as a virtue, pursuit of holiness, love as willing the good of the other, seeing oneself and others as made in the image of God and endowed with great dignity from our Creator. Even the concept of a Creator itself was new to me. I was taught that we are not created at all, rather we are just a random mutation, our existence is due to a quirk of the universe, and we have no telos, no purpose, no inherent nature that we grow towards. I can think of so many more things, including the role and purpose of marriage, family, my identity as a woman, a sacramental worldview, the importance of the contemplative orders, basically my entire concept of myself and the nature of all of existence.

And it's funny you mention that consent is taught as the only measure of morality (I'd say as far as sex, yes that's the only measure taught. As far society there's also the neo-marxist supposed oppressor/oppressed classism 🙄) and the consent thing reminds me of this awesome meme I found recently. It's a cartoon of 2 parts. The first part is a guy with an image of an atom's structure on his shirt throwing the Bible in a fire saying "finally a world of pure rationalism" and in the second part, with a smug smile, he's reading a book titled "can animals consent?" Brilliant lol.

My fiancé and I recently converted back to Catholicism after a good 17 years of being agnostic/atheist, so I very strongly relate to so much of Michael’s journey and testimony. I completely agree that the liturgy and customs have suffered. I left the church shortly after Catholic High School as a result of a dumbed down catechesis. It was only after delving into the writings of the early church fathers and listening to intellectual and spiritual figure heads like Jordan Peterson and Bishop Barron speak on the subject of the scriptures and implicit meaning that I began to slowly start to uncover the truth.
If you two could just make this a weekly chat, that would be great.

Most of us full converts, came back into our faith after a life of sin. Hearing others testimonies makes me feel better, then I think of the saints and their lives not all we’re living in faith most were living in sin. Take saint Francis of Assisi for instance, he even claims to have been living in sin up until the lord called him to live amongst the lepers that he went I to full conversion. He was already a friar but still considered himself sinful. We all are but as long as we don’t stray from the truth, and we have come to full conversion that’s all that matters, peace all good. 🌻🙏🏽💙

I wouldn't recommend it. Michael could run circles around the average Protestant but ultimately the best Protestants will run circles around Michael. I came into religion from being an atheist and evaluating the two side by side I consistently found Protestants to be making the better arguments. It seems that most arguments for Catholicism boil down to an appeal to manmade doctrine, authority, and traditions that have been elevated to the level of Scripture.

Listening to you talk about bringing your wife to Mass made me smile. I ventured on a whim out from our NO parish to a TLM one Sunday when my husband was working (mostly out of desperation because I was disgusted with the “Eagles Wings” felt banner culture of my NO parish). I remember calling him and saying, “Um, listen, we gotta change parishes. Like next week. Just trust me.” I too thought he would be as blown away as I was by the TLM. He wasn’t, but thankfully he warmed up to it and did agree to change. Now if we have to go to our old parish (our goddaughter is there still) he is as annoyed and restless as I am lol. For some of us the TLM is just this glaringly beautiful, mystical, reverent place immediately. I think for others they are so shocked they don’t know how to react; it’s almost unbelievable that it’s the same religion if you don’t understand the history. I imagine if you didn’t tell a non-Catholic where you were taking them and took them to both the NO and the TLM and just stood and observed, they wouldn’t think it was the same faith. Which makes it all the more sad that the Church changed the liturgy that drastically after Vat II. Great video!
Michael Knowles is my favorite most mainstream commentator. Thank you so much for doing this. Also, Matt thank you so much for making the post about "Black Catholic Chick"' channel. I agreed with you that she is awesome! Her video "I'm a Black Woman and this is Why I'm Catholic" is amazing! And she recently did a video on Mother Mary and intercessory pray, which I think many of us Catholic in comment sections would appreciate whenever we bring up the Rosary because I think it could help so many people! God bless you Matt Fradd.

Listening to Michael’s conversion story made me remember a film I watched a couple of weeks ago called ‘A Most Reluctant Convert’. It’s the story of C S Lewis’s conversion in his own words; and the film is really well made. I definitely recommend it!
It was nice to hear a little bit of talk about Mr. Knowles' parish (which is also my parish). We've seen each other there - he'd recognize me as the balding middle-aged guy with grizzled long hair and a long grizzled goatee. Two or three Sundays ago I thought that I saw Matt Walsh in the parish office building (where Masses are currently held) searching for someone or something. Matt, if you come to Nashville, there are a boatload of orthodox Catholics who'd want to meet you... and they'd probably want Mr. Knowles and Mr. Walsh to show up also.

Matt, I thought that I saw you at our parish last weekend… or maybe the weekend before, it’s blurry in my memory now. Was that you?
Michael is one of the sharpest minds I've ever encountered.
Loved this conversation! Hope to see Michael back on the show in the future!!
Knowles is one of the few political commentators who I CAN still listen to
DW should turn Knowles wordless book into a movie. The public has been asking for it.
Love Michael Walsh! That’s why I’m here!
The reverence and the seriousness of the liturgy and tradition of the faith, reinforces the depth of Catholicism's validity. Where else can you find this in the world? It's so needed and so fulfilling. And so beautiful!
That’s the story of the Latin Masses everywhere that I have seen. I just moved from Iowa & am now in Texas. The Latin Mass has crying babies & restless Kids and a beautiful, reverent liturgy.
Michael you should really come to Canada, I live here and would love to see you come and talk here.
“I believe in order to understand”. St. Augustine
I'm a cradle Catholic. I've admittedly had my stage in life of falling away from the Church but found my way back eventually, thanks be to God. I've never been to a Latin mass. I've heard nonstop, it seems, of the beauty of it yet, again, I've yet to experience it personally. That said, I personally enjoy the novus ordo. I seek Christ weekly...I long for Him. I feel like I'm in the minority though in actually enjoying the novus ordo mass. Is it merely that I've not yet experienced a Latin mass that would probably change my mind?

I've been going to the Latin Mass consistently on an average of 2 to 3 times a week. Now because of nursing school I'll be lucky if I can even attend one a week but I am very blessed by God to have a parish no more than 10 minutes away from my house that has the Latin mass. It definitely takes a few sets but the Latin mass will grow on you when you understand that, A. The prayers that the priest is saying are not directed towards you but to God. B. You are partaking in a liturgy that countless Saints throughout the ages have partaken in. The Latin Mass has had little minute changes throughout the centuries but it's definitely identical to how our ancestors worshiped. And C. It is loaded with a lot of symbolism and scripture

It's like comparing a Hershey Bar to Belgium Chocolate....or skim milk/nut milk to 100% Whole... But. For some it's so removed depending on their N.O. experience that it might take a few visits to adjustment. It really is dependant on how the N.O. was/is done for an absolute polarity of the two

@Deston Swan Only God can condemn, and all rely on God's mercy for salvation That said, birth control does nothing but create a pornified culture of sexualized people, while also convincing people to sterilize themselves for the good of the Liberal capitalist system. The mammon-hungry beast needs compliant workers who are more interested in sex and money than higher things. Homosexuality and divorce erode (or more specifically, have eroded) the foundational structure of a stable society, namely the marital union of man/woman and any children that arise from it. Finally, separation of church and state is a convenient myth bandied about by Liberal societies to assert religious indifferentism. All actions of the state are, de-facto, moral imperatives derived from the value systems of the governed. There is no "separation of church and state" to respect, it is an incoherent position that cannot be exercised. Sincerely, we Catholics who already understand these things

@Deston Swan Dear Deston, Stop hanging around Catholic youtube channels and go live your life, mate! None of the things you mentioned above are illegal, nor have any likelihood of becoming illegal in the west anytime soon, so why don't you just chill and let Catholics believe what they want to believe. Surely you must have something more enlightened to do? Or maybe, just maybe, you're hanging around a Catholic podcast site because you really want to convinced that all of the above-listed things are wrong, and that there is a God that loves you and wants good for you. Either way, these sorts of comments are a silly waste of time.

I have a lot of PWA favorite episodes but this one just moved to the top. Well done, gentleman. Very well rounded and grounded discussion indeed.
I love Fr. Rutler! Thank you Michael & Matt for helping stitch our beautiful Church back together. The disparate approaches are disturbing.
Thank You for the stream and interview! ❤ ❤ ❤
I ‘m a yearly subscriber to both all access Daily Wire + and Matt Fradd best information around!

No one looks happier than Michael Knowles when he contemplates the Holy Trinity. (39:49)
Took 15 minutes to get the Daily Wire out of Knowles. After that, pure gold
I love Michael Knowles. Thanks for hosting him!
Loved this so so much! So, after this great in-depth conversation this feels a little silly to make such a materialistic and trivial request , but could the Pints With Aquinas team please start sharing Matt's wardrobe info. Seriously. I'm sure I'm not the only one that has taken notice of his clothing selections going up a notch.

Im not sure why I clicked on this video but it made me love Michael Knowles!
Wow, this was a delight to watch! Definitely need more conversations like these. I enjoyed listening to every topic discussed.
Knowles is a treasure. 10/10.
Love this crossover. Two of my absolute favorites.
“Shapiro told me too”! Lol… classic! Love Matt and it was great to meet you at St. Anne’s in SD when you were working with Catholic Answers!
I love Michaels conversion story
Awesome that Matt mentions the Hitchens VS Craig debate. That was a big one for me too. Hitch had some killer rhetoric and charm but Craig just dismantled his arguments with logic! Great conversation all in all, thanks fellas! - A Protestant Christian
Such a pleasant video to watch/listen to!! Thank you!
Thank you so much! I'm very appreciative of both Matt Fradd's contribution and Michael Knowles' contribution to the topics of Conservatism, Catholicism and Good Cigars! 😊
I fully endorse this! :) I still remember when Matt came on my show. What an honour that was!
I'd like to hear more about what convinced Michael about the blessed Virgin Mary and Saints. Also loved his collaboration with Andrew Klavan on Another Kingdom. Hope DW+ makes it into a show or movie, even if its in animation!

Could be the results.i mean there are tens of thousands of miracles bestowed by God,thru the intercessions of Virgin Mary and the Saints.Im one of the benefeciaries.Was homeless for 2 yrs ,when i was a teen.Prayed to Virgin Mary to help me find people who would adopt me and send me back to school.two days ,after a family adopted me and sent me to a prominent University. Been working in the medical field for decades already.all of my success commenced with a simple prayer to His Mother.It was Jesus who bestowed me the miracle,thru His and our mother too!
I’m a 48 year old “tomboy,” and I’m never going to change. I hate pink and i hate dresses and girly things, but i love my husband and children.
I love the fact that Michael can talk about politics and I don’t always understand things he says but I sort of get the gist of his what he is saying, but if I listen to him about Catholic religion, even though I am 67 years old, and I left Catholicism at age 13, I understand everything he say’s about the mass, not sort of but everything, so there is no divide of age (67) or location. (Melbourne, Australia) so a golden thread is uniting all of us together. THAT is God. Amen 😄 blessings guys.
I was so pleasantly surprised at his well thought-out process to decide his journey. I was Catholic am now reformed Christian but I absolutely applaud his thinking process and his openness. Great podcast
Totally agree with Michael on free speech absolutism. It has never been the Catholic position to allow absolute free speech. As Pope Gregory XVI said, "Error has no rights."
Never knew Michael was Sicilian. I'm part Siciliian but if you asked my grandpa I'm 100% Sicilian.😂
The off ramp is to ask God for forgiveness,obey His laws, and pray for healing.
This is one of your best interviews Matt!! Thank you. I’m heading to Locals to watch the rest.
Wahoo!! Love these two men.
One of those social media types started a "pastor's story hour" at his local library and I think we could use more of that.
Norm and Knowles is a conversation I would still pay to see....
I met Father Rutler while attending St. Michael’s, too! He’s so wonderful ❤️✝️🙏🏻
I love both you guys.. you are doing the Lords work, why not have like a catholic back stage discussion, You, Matt Walsh, Michael Knowles, Seamus, and George Farmer, It would be amazing.
Wonderfully intertaining interview. By the end I was convinced of the necessity to support, economically, content creators that can help restore the world that I want to live in
In regards to escaping CA, God blessedmy family as we all moved from CA.... my son-in-law had to rent a UHaul in Arizona, he had arranged to get it on the way home from a trip. when he went to pickit up they didn't have what he had ordered , and told him the nearest one was in Santee CA... he graciously accepted (as he was moving from La Mesa CA which is the neighboring city)
I have been waiting for this one!
