Have We Become Numb To Secular And Ecclesiastical Corruption?

Have we, in fact, become numb to secular and ecclesiastical corruption??

Apparently so...

Look at what is happening in American politics, as well as in society in general.  Look too, to what is happening in the "Catholic" Church, and see if there is a link to the filthy corruption in our beloved land, as well as the corruption in MY beloved Church of Christ.

Of course there is a link!!!

As the Church goes, so goes society; a very true saying.

This has been proven over the years, in fact, over the centuries from the time just after the founding of the nascent church from the time of Our Lord.  Can I back up my statement?  I can...

Take a quick look at one of the original bishops that sat with Our Lord at the Last Supper: Judas Iscariot.  And when Our Lord was taken prisoner, His first choice to head the Church, Peter, denied his Master not one, but three times!

But God would not be mocked, and the blood of the martyrs became the seed of the Church because of the Divine command to preach and baptize ALL nations.  That divine command was in the process of being accomplished until Julian the Apostate abandoned the Catholic Faith and reignited the persecution of the early Catholics of the Fourth Century, only to be defeated in 363 A.D.  Just before he died, he uttered: “Thou hast conquered O Galilean!"

But true evangelization would continue, and continue to our day...

I say true evangelization, not the false ecumenism that was hatched at the demonic Second Vatican Council...

Unfortunately, the real Catholic faith began to be weakened way before Vat. II, in fact we'll have to go back to the Protestant Revolt (not "reformation"), and see that apostasy from the faith took place, en masse, when Henry VIII (former defender of the Faith!!), decided to become the head of the church in England (formerly known as Our Lady's Dowry).  It didn't take much, just about 100,000 Pounds, and a threat to have their necks stretched on the rack...

Fast forward to the founding or our country, and the new brand, so to speak, of Catholicism; new that is, because it had no resemblance to the Faith of our Fathers; the faith that made saints and martyrs.

It became known as Americanism; a heresy officially condemned by Pope Leo XIII... Basically, it is the watering down of Church teaching -- its core doctrines -- in order not to make waves; to go along to get along.  We see the results of that watering down of doctrine today, and the havoc it has produced among the shepherds whose duty it is to guide the flock to their heavenly beatitude, instead we have those very same shepherds leading many souls over the cliff to spiritual death.

I contend that it is that weakness that allowed the diabolical decision  of the Supreme Court of 1973 (Roe v Wade) to stand.  The results are horrific: nearly 62,000,000 (MILLION!) pre-born babies massacred in the womb of their "mothers".   

But as devastating as that is, it was only the beginning of the madness that has infected secular society, from the homosexual, "transgender," and LGBT lunacy, to so-called "drag queens" indoctrinating little children in libraries, with complicit "parents" only too willing to show that they are "tolerant" and want to enshrine "diversity" into their young charges!

What a high and eternal price they will have to pay on Judgment Day!!!!!!!!!!


The corruption in our society, and what now passes fort the "Catholic" Church, continues unabated, with the official stamp of approval of a renegade pope, Bergoglio.  His actions are exacerbating an already scandalous papacy extolling the virtues of idolatry and paganism, lightly coated with "mercy" and "inclusiveness."  

Our politicians take notice of the weakness, and find no shame in receiving the Holy Eucharist, at least those that label themselves Catholic, while at the same time, are hell-bent on making sure that a woman can kill her developing baby, all worshipping on the altar of choice (but no choice for the pre-born baby!).  

As the Church goes, so goes society...

Pray for a quick and complete demise of the new-order "Catholic" Church, and for the consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.  If this is not done, then the devil will continue to have his way until the Second Coming...

Pray, especially, for President Trump that he may convert to the true Catholic faith, and defeat those foreign and domestic enemies that, literally, want to destroy our homeland.

A Message To All Veterans...

A soldier trains to be proficient in his field of expertise so that, if necessary, he can take out and defeat an enemy.  But a true patriot does not wish for war, but rather hopes that his skills will never be used on the field of battle.  A true patriot does not relish the idea of killing another human being, or destroying someone else's country.  Quite the opposite...

Yesterday, Monday, November 11, 2019, we celebrated Veteran's Day here in the U.S. of A., and rightly so.  It is a reminder of who is tasked with the duty to protect and defend his fatherland; the land of his birth, or the land that he loved so much, that he wanted -- and did -- become a citizen of his adopted country: the Untied States of America.  It also commemorates those men that have gone before us; many making the ultimate sacrifice to secure or protect the freedoms that we enjoy today, or the freedoms of those unable to defend against an overpowering, tyrannical enemy force.

Any soldier (and I include all branches of the military when I use the word: soldier -- no offense to the Marines, Navy, Air Force, or Coast Guard!!) that longs for conflict or outright war is a nutcase; he is not a patriot.

Any soldier that has been in combat, or has seen his G.I. brothers KIA or WIA or become MIA or a POW, knows that war is hell on earth, not to mention those people that suffer the most in war: the civilian populace; the innocent non-combatants; the "collateral damage" of the near-total destruction of homes and infrastructure.

Children become orphans, or mothers and fathers lose the product of their married love; fear, hunger and despair rule.   Far too many lives are completely ruined, with little hope of recuperating any sense of normalcy.  The list is so endless, that it can fill a book...

What it comes right down to it, war is the result of grievous sins against the God Who made us.  Most of the world has rejected its Creator, replacing Him with the father of lies, Satan.  The big lie of Satan is that he can make us our own little god, with no need for our Father, who art in Heaven...  But in the long run, the price for this massive apostacy will have to be paid in more wars and rumors of wars,

The "liberty" to sin is not freedom, but pure slavery...

God will not be mocked: believe it!

A true soldier prays for peace; not war.

I ask all patriots to pray for peace, and pray for our country.

A Veteran's Day Tribute...

November 11, 2019, and my Veteran's Day Tribute to ALL Veteran's both living and dead...

Please think before you speak to a veteran on Veteran's Day.   THINK!

First, it is NOT appropriate to say to a veteran: "Happy Veteran's Day".

Many veterans have been in combat, or at least have been in a war in some way supporting those in combat.

"Happy Veteran's Day"?  There is nothing "happy" about war; there is nothing "happy" about seeing your buddies wounded in action (WIA), or killed in action (KIA).  The repercussions of death and mayhem are disastrous, both for the "good guys" and the enemy alike!  In addition, the "collateral damage" of the wounding and killing of innocent, non-combatant civilians is one of the true evils of war.

War should be the last of all alternatives to right a perceived wrong; the last alternative to defend one's homeland, or that of others who are unable to defend themselves.

Wars and rumors of wars are the consequence, the chastisement, for grievous sins against God due to our fallen -- and weakened -- human nature.

You might be able to sympathize with a veteran, but if you haven't worn the uniform, that's all you can do.  You simply cannot empathize; you cannot!

In Vietnam, -- "my war" -- I saw enough, almost on a daily basis, to fight my primary enemy: FEAR.

If one can face fear, and stand fast, that's called courage, though most veterans would not consider themselves courageous.  We simply did our jobs.  In essence, we did not fight for a cause; that was secondary.  The fact is, my brothers and I fought for each other.

So, I ask again: think before you greet a veteran on Veteran's Day.  Maybe a simple: Thank you for your service?

I thank you all for remembering our vets on this special day that commemorates the sacrifices of those who paid the ultimate price for our freedoms, as well as for the freedoms of others.

Pray for all veterans, both living and dead; pray for our country, and pray, too, for peace...

My Tribute To The One-Hundred-Eleven...

In my Veteran's Day Tribute, I carelessly failed to mention a major part of that tribute: The One-Hundred-Eleven Air Force Security Police brethren that were killed in action (KIA) during the Vietnam War.  Many were KIA or WIA (wounded in action) during the 1968 Tet Offensive.

All were posthumously awarded the Purple Heart, along with many Silver- and Bronze-Stars with "V" for valor, while defending the perimeter of their respective air bases throughout the South.

How could I have "forgotten"?  

The answer is quite simple: I really didn't forget, because I always remember those One-Hundred-Eleven in my prayers, as well as dedicating all my books to them and their families.

There are some who think that the Air Force did little if any combat operations during the war, but nothing could be further from the truth.  There were, in fact, special operations Air Force personnel that slipped behind enemy lines in order to coordinate air and ground attacks for the Army and Marines, as well as rescue downed American pilots.

But those in the know, knew that the Military Assistance Command, Vietnam -- Studies and Observations Group (MACV-SOG), was a top secret, joint unconventional warfare task force created on 24 January 1964 by the Joint Chiefs of Staff.  Air Force personnel were an integral part of that operation... 

Many of the boots-on-the-ground owe their very lives to the sacrifices of those special personnel.  In addition, the Marines at Khe Sanh were literally saved by Air Force C-130s that took mortar and rockets to their aircraft as they attempted to land at that besieged base, bringing in ammunition and extracting the wounded, not to mention B-52s as well as fighter bombers that annihilated many North Vietnamese regular army and Viet Cong divisions.

Sure, the Air Force Security Police had a different function as I stated earlier, but their contribution to the war effort, in many instances, went above and beyond the call of duty.

My hat is off to those extraordinary brothers who gave all to save others.... May God allow them to rest in peace.

Pray too, for our country...

Child Burning/Eating Pagan Idol, Moloch, Set Up Near Colosseum In Rome...

ROME, November 6, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) – A reconstruction of a pagan idol who demanded child sacrifice was stationed at the entrance of Rome’s Colosseum as part of a secular historical exhibition.

The presence of the idol raised particular concern among Catholics, as it was erected nine days before the Amazon Synod and the subsequent scandal over the veneration of the Pachamama idol at the Vatican.

The statue of Moloch, worshipped by both the Canaanites and the Phoenicians, is part of an exhibit dedicated to Ancient Rome’s once-great rival, the city of Carthage. The large-scale exhibition, titled Carthago: The immortal myth, runs until March 29, 2020.

...

The statue of Moloch was erected nine days prior to the opening of the Amazon Synod, which was plagued with controversy from the beginning after a ceremony in the Vatican Gardens involving the pagan goddess “Pachamama” was held in the presence of Pope Francis and top-ranking prelates.

...

Alexandra Clark saw a connection between the idol of Moloch and the Pachamama images that featured so prominently at the recently concluded Amazonian Synod. 

...

The image of Moloch is modeled on a representation of the child-devouring demon found in the 1914 Italian silent film Cabiria. In the film the idol of Moloch, set up in a Punic temple, has a giant bronze furnace in his chest, into which hundreds of children are thrown. Cabiria, the heroine of the film, is threatened with this fiery fate. 

...

The film’s depiction of the idol has a historical basis. Three ancient Greek historians all attest that it was customary in Carthage to burn children alive as offerings to the deity, whom they called Baal and Cronus or Saturn, the Roman god who, according to myth, ate his own children lest they supplant him. Moloch is also mentioned several times in the Book of Leviticus.

...

MY COMMENT: See for yourself...  The "Eternal City," Rome, has now become a cesspool of sexual deviance; sacrilege; child murder, e.g., "planned parenthood"; apostasy; heresy, and scandal.  

Why would the successor of St. Peter allow this monstrosity to be set up at the entrance to the Colosseum where Christians (that's Catholics!) were thrown to the wild animals and devoured, as others cheered, with the blood of the martyrs that became the seed of the nascent Church of Christ???

The answer has become painfully clear: "pope" Francis is part of the movement to establish a one-world-religion of secular humanism, period.  

I ask again: Is The Pope Catholic?   Apparently not.  We must pray for his conversion to the Catholic Faith, and that he repents -- publicly -- for the sins of apostasy, heresy and scandal.  But I wouldn't hold my breath...

Pray too for our country...

Medal Of Honor Heroes...

What makes a hero, a hero?

If you go to YouTube, you can see Medal of Honor stories of men from World War II, Korea and Vietnam ("my war").

As I sit in my chair and watch and listen to these men, and how they managed to survive the incredible combat situations that eventually led to them being nominated and awarded the Medal of Honor, -- the nation's highest military award -- my eyes tear-up.

For anyone that was in a war (or not...), it would be difficult not to have tears roll down your cheeks, if there is any sense or idea of what these men went through.  Those that were not in uniform or in a war, can only sympathize, but not empathize.

And yet, to a man, every one of these real heroes, say that they wear that honored Medal for the men that did not make it back; that made the supreme sacrifice for their G.I. buddies, their country, and for the peoples of the countries they liberated from enemy control and domination...

Many of the men that were awarded the Medal of Honor, are gone now.  Some of the men in the YouTube interviews have passed away; some are still alive, and well into their 90's...  Even some of the men from the Vietnam War are in their 80's, and yes, even in their 90's also.  Some were veterans from the Korean War that served again in the Vietnam War.  Many of my brothers from the Vietnam War are passing away, as age and debilitating diseases takes its toll, especially from the chemical used to defoliate the jungles: Agent Orange...

If there is a common thread when these men told their stories -- some, though, cannot tell all the details, as it is too much; too gut-wrenching; way too emotional to do so -- it is that they just did what had to be done; they didn't think ahead and say: "Oh, I better do this, or this will happen"... No, they just did it; they acted; they saved lives; they took out the enemy...

And when the war(s) were over, and some of the enemy surrendered, the POWs were examined for documents or personal items, it was often found that the "enemy" was much like them.  Some were of the same religion; some had families; some lost relatives in war, whether military or civilian, as "collateral damage," as there always are in war; most were tired of wars and rumors of wars...

Many of the captured enemy were surprised that they were treated decently (for the most part); had their wounds looked after; given decent food, and many repatriated to their country...

The inhumanity of war, was quickly replaced with the humanity of brotherhood...

The men who were awarded the Medal of Honor, also have another common thread: they know and hate the horrors of war, and to a man, love peace.  A real soldier prepares for war, but in his heart, hopes that he never has to fight in war, and experience the terrible consequences that come with the failure of humanity to get along...

Pray for our country, and pray for peace, please...

"Is The Pope Catholic"?

Remember when someone would say something so obvious, so factual, that the response would go something like this: "Is The Pope Catholic"?  Or, being slightly gross: "Does A Bear Poop In The Woods"?

I think you get the idea without any further illustration...

So now, I have to ask -- again: Is The Pope Catholic?

I must say, that what is coming out of Rome, and, more specifically, what is emanating from the Chair of Peter, almost on a daily basis, is most certainly not Catholic, period!

It should be painfully obvious that the words and actions -- that's how we judge! -- have provided fodder for the anti-Catholic bigots around the world, especially from those who are deeply engrossed in those un-natural "lifestyles" that we are so bombarded with, through the media, day after day...

Where are our faithful shepherds that have the responsibility to guide their flocks to their heavenly destiny, fighting to the death, if necessary, to stomp out the heresies that seem to flood the Church like an unstoppable tsunami?

Sure, there are some bishops and cardinals, as well as some courageous priests -- some more traditional-minded priests have been forced into hiding for fear for their very lives!! -- that have bucked the trend to bend over backwards to placate Bergolio and his demonic, anti-Christ agenda.  But their response is tepid at best...

Remember what our Lord said about His "lukewarm" followers (paraphrasing): be hot or cold, but I will spit you out like vomit -- if you are lukewarm!!  Pretty strong words coming from the Lamb of love and mercy!

They must condemn -- yes, condemn -- in the strongest terms, the false "religions" of environmentalism, syncretism, idol worship, and other such blasphemies and sacrileges, including the desecration of Catholic churches polluted with wooden, pagan "gods".

It seems that the First Commandment has been consigned to the dustbin of ecclesiastical history!

This is more horrible than any violation of any other Commandment, because it practically ignores and denigrates the Creator and His DEMAND that He be first in our lives.

It is apparent that Bergolio no longer believes that he owes his very being to His Master, Jesus Christ.  He continues, afresh, to pound nails into the hands of our Lord -- as we all do when we sin!

When will this horrendous crisis in the Church of Christ end?  I don't know, but what I do know, is that we have to resist -- to the face -- any, and all, heresies that contradict Church doctrine as handed down from Our Lord to His Apostles and their successors.  There is no other choice!

The Elect, I feel, will be few and far between, as opposed to the phony "bishop" Barron who seems to think that all men will eventually be saved!!   You are wrong, "bishop", dead wrong!!   You conveniently leave out the second part of the sentence: and come to the knowledge of the Truth!

The problem is, is that there are some "Catholics" who are so ignorant of their faith, that they will follow such "bishops" over the cliff, happily following the Judas goat to their spiritual death...

Please, Lord, we need an army of faithful, traditional Catholics led by another St. Athanasius, and quickly!!

Earnestly pray for an end to this apostasy, and pray too, for our country...
