Massachusetts: One Final Step To Making Killing Of The Pre-Born Up To Birth -- LEGAL!

 WARNING!  WARNING!  WARNING!

THE FOLLOWING ARTICLE CONTAINS INFORMATION THAT MAY BE VERY HARD FOR SOME TO STOMACH! 

BEWARE!  BEWARE!  BEWARE!

Well, it has happened...

The Massachusetts senate has followed the house in passing the most barbaric of all bills to kill the pre-born all the way up to birth!

The only step now is for the openly lesbian, Gov. Maura Healey, to sign this disgusting, anti-life, anti-Christ bill into "law"!

If you have any doubts about who is and who is not an atheist, you have an answer: Maura Healey...

Too bad for her if she signs this bill into "law."  A "law" that is far worse than what the ancient Incas and Aztecs did to human beings in offering to their false gods, the beating hearts ripped out of the poor souls groomed for such madness! 

And is say "too bad for her," that is, I can't imagine the price she will have to pay at her Particular Judgment!  A price that will last for all eternity -- if she doesn't repent.

God-fearing folks have often wondered how such killers sleep at night...

Maybe they do, and maybe they don't, but feel they have to go along in order to maintain their office at the price of innocent life?

Maybe they fear "retribution" from the demonrat party they belong to?

Maybe they are acknowledging, openly, they have sold their immortal souls to the father of lies and murder, satan?

As difficult as it may be, these are exactly the folks we have to pray for -- that's not a choice, it is a command from Our Blessed Lord: pray for your enemies!

Moreover, it is imperative for any bishop in Massachusetts to discover who voted for this monstrosity, and if any of them are "Catholic," then they must be publicly excommunicated on the spot!

But will that happen?

Don't hold your breath!

From lifesitenews.com and written by Calvin Freiburger Fri Aug 7, 2026 - 4:32 pm EDT: Massachusetts passes bill to legalize unlimited abortion up to birth - LifeSite comes the horrible details...

"BOSTON (LifeSiteNews) — The Massachusetts Senate has given final approval to legislation eliminating the need for specific medical justifications for abortion past 24 weeks, opening the door to effectively unlimited abortion up to birth once signed by Democrat Gov. Maura Healey.

Under current state law, an abortion may only be committed past 24 weeks if a physician deems it “necessary to preserve the life of the patient”; “necessary to preserve the patient’s physical or mental health”; “warranted because of a lethal fetal anomaly or diagnosis”; or “warranted because of a grave fetal diagnosis that indicates that the fetus is incompatible with sustained life outside of the uterus without extraordinary medical interventions.”

Such exceptions, pro-lifers have long warned, give abortionists ample wiggle room to authorize late-term abortions under false pretenses. But H. 5595 would do away with even those conditions, replacing the language with “an abortion may be performed by a physician based upon the professional judgment of the physician.” It would also add language that “No medical review process shall override the professional judgment of a treating physician and a patient or the patient’s health care proxy to provide an abortion consistent with” the new section.

LifeSiteNews reported last month the bill passed the House, and it has since cleared the Senate as well, now requiring only the radically pro-abortion governor’s signature to become law.

“Not one legislator who voted for this has been brave enough to acknowledge the truth, the inconvenient fact that this bill allows heinous dismemberment abortions on perfectly healthy and viable babies,” responded Massachusetts Citizens for Life president Myrna Maloney Flynn. “It is accepted science that an unborn baby’s nervous system is developed enough at 24 weeks of pregnancy so that the baby can feel pain. By passing this bill, Massachusetts lawmakers have decided that an abortionist can crush the skull of any infant, then tear that baby apart, limb by limb.”

Abortion defenders have long attempted to downplay late-term abortions as rare bordering on nonexistent, while opposing any attempt to restrict them. But the facts show they are a very real problem.

According to data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) and pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute reviewed by the pro-life Charlotte Lozier Institute (CLI), while more than 90% of abortions occur in the first trimester, more than 50,000 abortions a year take place after 15 weeks (almost four months into pregnancy), and approximately 10,000 after 20 weeks (five months).

Further, contrary to pro-abortion narratives, most of these abortions are not sought for extreme medical emergencies. A 2013 Guttmacher report admitted “data suggests that most women seeking later terminations are not doing so for reasons of fetal anomaly or life endangerment,” and notorious late-term abortionist Warren Hern’s own published data found that fetal abnormalities ranged from just a fifth to a third of his  patients – and that the most common of those “abnormalities” was Down syndrome, a condition that is neither a death sentence nor even a guarantee of an unhappy life.

Yet, for years, congressional Democrats have consistently voted against the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, which would ban most abortions after five months."

Who Is The “Queer Commissioner Of The German Bishops’ Conference”? "Bishop" Ludger Schepers.

 Will Rome approve or support of this modernist lunacy?

Yes, by silence if by nothing else.

This is really hard to believe, but it is obviously true!

From lifesitenews.com and written by Gaetano Masciullo Fri Aug 7, 2026 - 12:09 pm EDT: Bishop says Catholic Church must ‘offer refuge’ to ‘queer people in our congregations’ - LifeSite

"ESSEN, Germany (LifeSiteNews) — A German bishop has accused the Catholic Church of failing “queer people” by allowing “prejudice, mistrust,” and “rejection,” calling on the Church to “repent.”

On August 2, Bishop Ludger Schepers, auxiliary bishop of Essen and the “Queer Commissioner of the German Bishops’ Conference,” made the criticism in a public statement published by German news outlet Kirche+Leben, one week after the attack on Berlin’s pro-LGBT Christopher Street Day event. Schepers said the incident required the Church to examine whether Catholic parishes are places “queer” people can “live, believe, and experience community without fear.”

“We have to admit self-critically: the Church has not always been a safe place for queer people,” Schepers said in the interview. “As the Queer Commissioner of the German Bishops’ Conference, I am particularly concerned with one question: are our congregations really the safe places for queer people to which the Gospel obliges us?”

Schepers said that, “too often, individual biblical passages have been detached from their historical context and used against people.” According to the bishop, when the “Gospel of liberation” becomes an “instrument of exclusion,” the “Church contradicts its own mission.”

“This contradiction must not persist. It calls us to repentance,” Schepers continued.

The bishop grounded his argument in the ministry of Jesus Christ, whom he described as someone who “did not exclude people, but lifted them up in their dignity” and “created a community where others drew boundaries.” He characterized the Gospel as a message of “freedom, reconciliation and God’s unconditional love.”

From that premise, Schepers concluded that Catholic parishes should become places of “refuge – a place where queer people find protection, genuine acceptance, and a spiritual home.” He rejected the idea that creating such “safe spaces” would merely represent “a passing fad” or a “concession to the zeitgeist,” but that the Church must provide them as a “direct consequence of the Gospel.”

The auxiliary bishop of Essen extended his criticism beyond Germany, saying that, in parts of the worldwide Church, “we are witnessing that queer people are not only subjected to social exclusion, but that this attitude is also reinforced by voices within the Church. This is particularly true where homophobia is deeply rooted in cultural and political contexts.”

According to Schepers, “the Church must never allow itself to be shaped by cultural homophobia, but solely by the Gospel of Jesus Christ.”

The bishop also said that expressions of “mere solidarity is not enough.” He called for practical changes in parish life, including “a language that respects instead of hurting,” “communities that open doors instead of erecting barriers,” and “pastoral care that offers protective support instead of prematurely judging people.”

“The question, therefore, should not be whether our congregations should be safe spaces for queer people,” he said, “but rather how we can live up to this claim more credibly each day.”

While Schepers linked his criticism of a supposed “cultural homophobia” within the Church to the Christopher Street Day attack in Berlin, the violence was carried out by a 21-year-old immigrant, Abdul Ballout, who was linked to Berlin’s Islamist circles. German authorities later described the incident as an attack of Islamic and “queerphobic” motivation.

During a public commemoration for the victims at the Brandenburg Gate, Berlin singer and LGBT activist Nyya said she had hoped until the very end that the perpetrator would turn out to be “a Christian white person, but it wasn’t.”'

Of Course The Church Got It Wrong!! "Bishop" Says ‘Homosexuality Is Not A Sin’!!

 Pope SAINT Pius X condemned modernism as the synthesis of all heresies...

That was 119 years ago!!

How much worse is it now??

The "great" apostasy will start at the top, so say many mystics and appearances of Our Lady.

We have been exposed to so many wolves in sheep's clothing that it is difficult to keep count, yet we see the obvious results: a crippling of what the church actually teaches, not to mention the near total destruction of the sacred liturgy being replaced by an abomination called the novus ordo, put together by the despicable Bugnini and his ilk of protestant ministers...

And now we have the continuation and radical support of the sin that cries to Heaven for vengeance: homosexuality, and bodily mutilation also known as the LGBTQ, etc., etc., bunch of maniacs.

And instead of calling those poor souls to repentance, confession and to live a chaste life, they are encouraged to continue as they are and welcome as they are!

We practicing Catholics cannot remain silent in the face of these modernist monsters but must pray for their conversion to the Catholic Faith!

What a price these false shepherds will pay at their Particular Judgment!

From lifesitenews.com and written by Gaetano Masciullo Wed Aug 5, 2026 - 9:25 am EDT: Bishop says 'homosexuality is not a sin' at pro-LGBT conference - LifeSite comes more proof of this in-your-face treason!

"TORREÓN, Mexico (LifeSiteNews) — A Mexican Catholic bishop told a pro-LGBT gathering that homosexuality “is not a sin” and declared that “without the LGBT community, the Church is not complete.”

From July 30 to August 2 in Torreón, Mexico, the Fourth National Meeting of Red Católica Arcoíris México – a gathering of nearly 100 representatives from local pro-LGBT groups – took place. The opening Mass was celebrated at the local cathedral, where Bishop Luis Martín Barraza Beltrán of Torreón presided and Bishop Raúl Vera López, formerly of Saltillo, delivered the homily.

“The Church has a serious responsibility,” Vera López said during the homily. “Homosexuality is not a sin. It is a thing of nature and not human perversion or disease.” He also insisted that Catholics who identify as LGBT “have a right” to participate fully in ecclesial life and “exercise leadership of the faith among us,” concluding, “Without the LGBT community, the Church is not complete.”

The bishop also urged Catholic communities to receive people who identify as LGBT without exclusion and argued that their participation should not be viewed merely as an act of goodwill but as a moral obligation. He maintained that sexual orientation is an inherent aspect of the human person and rejected the idea that it should be considered a voluntary choice or a morally blameworthy condition.

Vera López further encouraged Red Católica Arcoíris México to continue strengthening its work as a community of faith composed of people identifying as LGBT and their supporters. He said the group’s witness should contribute to what he described as a more open Church and a society marked by respect, unity, and inclusion.

The bishop’s remarks generated controversy in Mexico. After criticism emerged, Vera López published a statement on his Facebook account thanking those who expressed support for him while lamenting what he described as criticism and slander directed against him because he considers himself “brother, pastor and friend” of those who identify as LGBT.

“Those who often condemn a person for their sexual inclinations are people who need not only education and updating, since they have remained in the tradition of the 2nd century, but also require a new heart as the prophet Ezekiel writes,” Vera López wrote in his Facebook post after reiterating his central claim that “homosexuality is not a sin.”

Delegates at the pro-LGBT meeting representing local groups from different regions of Mexico attended the gathering. Activities included workshops, meetings, the election of a new national leadership team for the organization, and a keynote address delivered by Jesuit Father James Martin via Zoom.

Vera López has long been associated with initiatives involving LGBT groups in the Mexican Catholic Church. In 2014, he baptized a 16‑month-old girl being raised by a lesbian couple. The event drew attention because of the bishop’s long-standing support for LGBT causes, including past affiliation with a group promoting the homosexual lifestyle.

Furthermore, in 2011, Vera López headed two “human-rights” organizations that have signed multiple documents advocating the decriminalization of abortion. Although the bishop denied being “pro‑abortion,” his organizations have endorsed declarations supporting abortion access and opposing pro-life constitutional amendments.

In 2025, lesbian Anglican minister Emilie Teresa Smith, who is in a same-sex “marriage,” participated in a Mass in Saltillo, Mexico, alongside Vera López, appearing to “concelebrate” by whispering the words of consecration, elevating the chalice, reading the Gospel, giving a homily, and later receiving the Eucharist – many of which are forbidden by Catholic canon law for non-Catholics and laypersons. Vera López defended her presence, framing it as an act of ecumenism and inclusion."

Scientists Call For World’s Population To Be Cut In Half Despite Warnings Of Demographic Collapse!!

 Is anyone surprised at this lunacy?

Keep in mind that one of the elements of the agenda of the "covid pandemic" was to kill those sick folks and reduce the population of the world, just as these maniac "scientists" insist on doing today!

There is no difference, the end game is the same.

These modernist lunatics hate life -- and hate Christ, period!

Remember too, that the now-dead Bergoglio pushed those deadly covid shots -- and called getting the shot and even the booster, an act of charity (an act of love!), and that we had a moral obligation to get the jab!

How many families suffered the loss of their loved ones because of the filthy lucre that hospitals and clinics received when they administered the shot, especially when those poor souls were put on respirators that effectively ended their lives?

I personally experienced this madness when my brother-in-law was eventually put on a respirator and died way before his time (in his early 60s!) leaving behind helpless, grieving family members.

In the news over this past week, the killer-doctor, Fauci, refused to testify before the senate invoking his Fifth Amendment rights over 150 times!

That murderer, by the way, is an apostate Catholic!  

In an interview some time back, he was asked about being a Catholic... He told the interviewer that he no longer needed his Catholic faith!

Really?

Do we see where that has led this former son of the Church?

Greed, money, murder, lies, etc., etc., etc...

So, in other words, I can presume that he no longer believes that he will be held accountable at his Particular Judgment when he faces Our Blessed Lord?

Sadly, this crooked "doctor" is just one of so many killers who used the "covid pandemic" to reduce the population and receive blood money for their crimes against humanity!

I wonder if the USCCB has responded to this report?  And if so, what was their response??

From lifesitenews.com and written by Emily Mangiaracina Tue Aug 4, 2026 - 7:38 pm EDT: Scientists call for world's population to be cut in half despite warnings of demographic collapse - LifeSite, comes this continuing madness...

"(LifeSiteNews) — A study published last week calls for the earth’s population to halve to four billion to achieve a “sustainable” planet. 

“We show that slowing and gradually reversing population growth to ∼4 billion or less by 2200, while moderating per capita impacts, is the path toward sustainability,” about a dozen co-authors wrote. “Per capita impacts” refers to people’s resource and energy usage.

The authors argued that data shows population growth leads to a decline in wildlife abundance, an increase in CO2 emissions, an increase in energy consumption, a greater ecological footprint, greater freshwater use, mineral extraction, plastics production, and pesticide use.

“Global environmental problems are caused by people, nothing else. The more of us there are, the greater our overall economic demands and the greater the associated environmental problems,” the authors asserted.

They draw the conclusion, therefore, that “in the long run, population growth itself is unsustainable.” 

The study relies on data from the United Nations, which predicts that humanity will continue down a path of massive population growth until the year 2100, peaking at a high of over 11 billion and a low of 9 billion. The current population is about 8 billion. Even according to these projections, population growth will be much slowed this century. Its “high” projection, however, is starkly different from that of other demographers, who point out that the earth’s population is fast approaching below-replacement numbers.

While the authors acknowledge that the rate of population growth has already been slowing, and that as of 2024, the world fertility rate was 2.2, only very slightly above replacement rate, they do not point out the likelihood of impending population collapse.

For example, a demographic study published in The Lancet found that the world is only a few decades away from a sharp and consequential population decline.

According to the authors, the UN population projections mean the earth’s sustainability is intolerably threatened. They, therefore, recommend accelerating toward the ideal of sub-replacement rate population through the provision of “reproductive health services,” which typically involves abortion as well as contraception, and “by improving girls’ educational opportunities, especially in poorer countries.

They also call for consumption levels to be reined in, such as through “long-accepted standards on land use, curbs on pollution, energy efficiency targets, and quotas limiting amounts and means of extraction of resources ranging from fish to forest.” They believe more of such measures, and “sometimes stronger ones,” need to be taken “at the local, national, or international levels.”

The idea that the world’s population must be restrained in order to sustain its existing people is hotly contested, and studies on the earth’s carrying capacity vary widely in their estimates. While 20 studies say it is 8 billion people or less (the current world population is about 8 billion), 14 studies peg the world’s carrying capacity at twice that amount, 16 billion, and 18 other studies notch that number way up, with seven studies estimating the earth can sustain as many as 64 billion people, and one study estimating it at 1,024 billion people.

Dean Spears, an economist at the Population Research Center of the University of Texas, co-authored a paper rare for its estimation of world population projections beyond 2100, showing that in any of three scenarios in which the world population remains below replacement rate, the number of the world’s inhabitants would rapidly plummet to a “very small” number. Darrel Bricker and John Ibbitson, authors of the book Empty Planet: The Shock of Global Population Decline, have asserted that once global population decline begins in what they say will occur in three decades, “it will never end.”

“Even if below-replacement fertility is sustained only for a few centuries, the size of the global population could become very small,” Spears and his fellow authors maintain. This means that a whole slew of harmful effects to society will follow population decline, likely including a decline in basic services and infrastructure; unemployment; a decline in innovation; insufficient end-of-life care for the elderly; and a decline in mental health.

Even the World Economic Forum (WEF) has admitted that the effects of population collapse will be “severe.” 

Jordan Peterson noted in an interview with podcaster Chris Williamson that “dire predictions” about the state of the world by the year 2000 made by the globalist Club of Rome based on ideas of overpopulation have not only been way off the mark but are the inverse of what actually happened. Peterson explained that the Club of Rome predicted “riots and mass starvation … and all the things you hear about climate change, because there’s too many people on the planet.” 

Peterson continued, “That just didn’t happen at all … it wasn’t just wrong, it was anti-true. It was absolutely wrong. What happened instead was that everyone got way richer and the (poorest) section of the population … got lifted out of poverty.”

Eric Metaxas has noted that such false predictions were built on Thomas Malthus’ “iron law of population,” an idea cited by Charles Darwin that states population increases must of necessity outstrip food production.

According to environmental scientist Erle C. Ellis, history shows that populations have always been sustained that were “well in excess of what a strictly Malthusian calculation would have predicted” due to technology. Ellis maintains that “there is no need to use any more land to sustain humanity” due to existing technologies and that there “really is no such thing as a human carrying capacity.”'

Leo Approved Cardinal Roche’s Document Supporting Latin Mass Restrictions!!

 From lifesitenews.com and written by Emily Mangiaracina Mon Aug 3, 2026 - 5:12 pm EDT: Pope Leo approved Cardinal Roche's document supporting Latin Mass restrictions: report - LifeSite

"(LifeSiteNews) — Pope Leo XIV supports the Latin Mass-suppressing document Traditionis Custodes and specifically requested Cardinal Arthur Roche’s document on the liturgy backing Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) restrictions, according to a Spanish publication.

La Razón reported Sunday that it has been “able to confirm” Cardinal Roche distributed this year’s consistory document on the liturgy “at the request of Leo XIV and, therefore, with his approval of its content.”

The outlet also reported that Pope Leo reviewed this document and “Not a single comma was changed.”

The delivery of the text to the cardinals therefore showcased the “position of the new Pope on this issue” and was “not a provocation by Roche” as some claimed, the Spanish outlet concluded.

Leo’s stamp of approval means the pontiff indeed supports the suppression of the Traditional Latin Mass. Roche’s leaked consistory text repeated Pope Francis’ claim that the Novus Ordo Missae is “the sole expression of the lex orandi of the Roman Rite.” It further stated that the permission granted to offer the TLM was a mere “concession that in no way envisaged (its) promotion,” and that “we cannot go back to that ritual form.”

La Razón’s report supports Roche’s recent claim that Pope Leo will not restore freedoms for the Traditional Latin Mass.

“No, Pope Leo is not going to change Traditionis Custodes, and he’s not going back to Summorum Pontificum,” the prefect of the Dicastery for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments told the British Catholic weekly The Tablet on Wednesday.

Latin Mass suppressions ordered by multiple bishops since Leo took office have already suggested that the pope does not intend to revoke Traditionis Custodes, which has been firmly denounced by clergy and scholars as a repudiation of the perennial practice of the Catholic Church and even of solemn Church teaching.

The document violates the permanent authorization of the traditional Mass confirmed by St. Pius V’s 1570 bull Quo Primum, which declared that this Mass may be used “freely and lawfully” in “perpetuity” and even that the wrath of God would fall upon those who would dare to restrict or abolish it.

“This present document cannot be revoked or modified but remains always valid and retains its full force,” Quo Primum states."'

End of article...

Pray for strength and honor -- for we will need it now more than ever... The horrendous restrictions of the TLM under Bergoglio, will get worse, much worse.  And I fear we will be forced "underground," as our faithful Chinese Catholics have been sold out and forced underground!

This not hyperbole!

Catholic Priest Brutally Murdered In Nigeria, Left On Side Of The Road...

 WARNING!  WARNING!  WARNING!

THE FOLLOWING ARTICLE CONTAINES A HORRIFIC DESCRIPTION OF THE DEATH OF A CATHOLIC PRIEST!

 It has happened again, in Nigeria...

The demonically possessed Jihadists continue their vicious assault against Christians -- in this case a Catholic priest, murders him, then leaves him on the side of the road like a piece of trash.

I would take a large bet that the priest who was martyred for the Faith, is right now praying for his murderers!

He will never suffer again, just the opposite!

From lifesitenews.com and written by Antonino Cambria Mon Aug 3, 2026 - 6:38 pm EDT: Catholic priest brutally murdered in Nigeria, left on side of road - LifeSite

"AJAOKUTA, Nigeria (LifeSiteNews) — Father Samuel Opeyemi Oyetoro, a Catholic priest in the Diocese of Lokoja, Nigeria, was gruesomely stabbed to death with a machete last week.

On July 29, police responded to reports of a lifeless body found on the side of the road, which was later identified as Fr. Oyetoro, who was found with “severe” machete wounds on his head, per Nigerian Tribune. The priest, who served as a priest at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Egbe, appears to be the latest cleric to be killed in the African country, where Islamic terrorists have brutally persecuted Christians for several decades.

“It is with profound sorrow and in the hope of the resurrection that the Catholic Diocese of Lokoja announces the passing of our beloved priest, Fr Samuel Opeyemi Oyetoro, who departed this life on Wednesday, 29th July 2026,” the Diocese of Lokoja said in a statement following the cleric’s death.

The Diocese of Lokoja also called on priests, religious, and the laity to remember the late cleric in their prayers and Holy Masses, while also offering prayers for his family and the entire diocese.

As of this writing, it is not known who murdered Fr. Oyetoro, but the case is now being investigated by the State Investigation Department (SCID).

A 2025 Global Christian Relief (GCR) Red List report found that Nigeria is the most dangerous place for Christians in the world. The report detailed how most of the killings in Nigeria occur in northern states governed by Islamic sharia law, where Christians “often live in remote villages in semi-arid landscapes, making them particularly vulnerable to attacks.”

Persecution of Christians in Nigeria began to spike after 1999, when 12 northern states adopted sharia law. The rise of the terrorist group Boko Haram in 2009 marked a dramatic escalation in the attacks. Famously, the group kidnapped hundreds of schoolgirls in 2014.

From 2009 to 2022, over 50,000 Christians were killed in the country, according to estimates. A 2024 report found that more than 8,000 Nigerian Christians were killed and thousands more were abducted in 2023, making it the bloodiest year on record for Islamic attacks against Christians in the country.

Recent attacks on Nigerian clerics and laity include the February abduction of Father Nathaniel Asukawaye from the Diocese of Kafanchan, along with 10 parishioners, who were eventually returned in May.

In April, 35 people were abducted, and five were killed in the Christian Ariko village. The attack targeted several churches in the region, including Catholic and Protestant churches.
