Host of the “Vortex” from “Real Catholic TV”
will be kicking off the next AOTM season this coming October.
Mr. Voris’ programs on realcatholictv.com such as the “Vortex” and “CIA” have caught our attention. He has been on the leading edge of some important hard hitting controversial stories that are happening in and out of the Church.
The topics of his programs have touched on such things as progressivism in the church, the health care bill and the US Bishops, the role of the laity in our culture today and the restoration begun by our “German Shepherd!” Pope Benedict XVI.
Please visit “Real Catholic TV” and see what I’m talking about. These are issues and stories all Catholics need to be informed on! Just click on the links below to see the “Daily Links” from Real Catholic TV.
We asked him to come in and speak or debate on the scandals and/or issues he has talked about on his programs and we are happy to report he has accepted.
Watch an episode of CIA (Catholic Investigative Agency) from Real Catholic TV,
“Obama’s Counterfeit Catholics”.

This was truly a great inspirational talk Real Men know Freedom is not Free! We all walked away with a deeper appreciation for our faith, our country and the men and women that have given their lives to defend it.
Michael Matt and Dr. Kevin Ferdinandt
A great debate this past November 10th :“Catholic Identity Under Attack - How Families and the Homeschool Movement Are Fighting Back” We were interviewed by the Minneapolis Star Tribune during this event. If you have not read it please click on the link in the upper right and take a look.

January 12th 2010, “Vatican II and the Spirit of Woodstock!” Thank you Chris for some thought provoking discussion. Now that you have laid out your position we should have you back for a debate.
Dr. David Pence Intense and Dr. Ozzie Mayers
Who can forget this controversial debate Marian Femininity vs. Modern Feminism. We got a lot of email on that one which we are still sorting through.
Fr. Echert
In lent we had a reflection on Saint John Vianney: Warrior Priest in the battle for souls. Thank you Father for this great reflection and making us ready for spiritual battle!
Dale Ahlquist and George Cain
Then in April things got hot with a good dose of Chesterton in the great debate “In God We Trust” Chesterton vs. Atheism!
David Paul Deavel and Robert Hanton helped us understand the Catholic position on different economic systems with their debate,”Economic Systems and Your Faith Life: Put your money where your faith is!” These guys were very good. Check out the CD if you were not there. I was still very disappointed that we could not get a socialist to enter the debate! Darn!!!!
I would like to thank all the different men’s groups from different parishes around the metro who helped us out this year.
The AOTM is servicing such large crowds that our small core group of men could not do it all. Therefore this year we called upon some different men’s groups from around the metro to help us out. Without your help the AOTM would not be able to continue. Thanks again to the men of:
St. Helena in South Mpls - These men were the first ones up to bat and wow did they hit it out of the park. We all got out of the hall by 10:15pm (a record!) and continued the debate at the Glockenspiel restaurant. It was a great night.
Nativity of our Lord in Highland - We thought we would not have enough help two months in a row and these men stepped in twice! Thank you!
St. Charles Borromeo in New Brighton - These men came the same two months as Nativity and combined forces to take care of us. They were a huge help all around. Thank you so much!
Chesterton Society- Thank you Dale Ahlquist for debating for the AOTM and rounding up the Chesterton Society to come in and help us for a month. You and your group were a huge help and if we can help you out with another book sale let us know!
St. Augistine volunteers - To all the St. Augustine volunteers that help us out so faithfully throughout the year by unloading on Saturday and chopping hundreds of pounds of onions and other veggies. I would like to say thank you and may God bless you!
St. Joseph – I would like to thank Duane Bauer and his men that came and helped out this year. These men really helped us out in a pinch and I was told they keep us in their prayers. We need all we can get! Thanks men!
St. John the Baptist - I would like to Thank Jeff Davis and his men. These guys are very active in the parish and Jeff is very busy with Minnesota Majority. I was very thankful that you all were able to help us even though you are doing so much.

The war of our time, is "The War Against Truth". This fellowship of men fights for The Truth, by bringing the clarity of Truth, to the Catholic and the non-Catholic. It is our hope that men, enlightened by the Truth and encouraged by fellowship, will return to the home and workplace better prepared to wage war on all the evils of our day. How? By living more fully their Christian faith, fulfilling their proper roles in our society and in the family, and thereby change our world.
