A quick note: let's hope the RFK, Jr. will right this lunacy on day one, if not, then more little ones will be exposed to the maniacs who want to depopulate the earth -- and make uncountable billions of dollars from dumbed down parents sacrificing their precious kids to the globalist crazies.
Read and heed this article for the sake of the children...
Here is the subheading of the article from lifesitenews.com and written by NicolasHulscher,MPH
"The CDC is escalating its childhood vaccination agenda and now says children should be exposed to 36 doses by age two and 70 by age 18 – a massive increase since the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, which gives vaccine makers full liability protection."
"(Courageous Discourse) — The 2025 Immunization Schedule was approved by the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) and adopted by CDC Director Mandy Cohen on October 24, 2024:
Children are now recommended to be exposed to 36 vaccine doses from in-utero to age two (four doses in the pregnant mother, 32 doses in the child from birth to age two). By age 18, the CDC now advises over 70 doses when taking into account routine COVID-19 and flu injections. This represents a massive increase in recommended vaccine doses since the inception of the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act giving vaccine makers full liability protection:
Since they enjoy full liability protection, pharmaceutical companies currently get their injections approved with no long-term, placebo-controlled trials. Follow-up periods range from just three days to six months, with most studies lacking a placebo group entirely. It’s evident that our regulatory agencies are compromised and are not prioritizing the public’s best interests:
Childhood hyper-vaccination is likely contributing to the skyrocketing autism rates:
But first, a little family history here... My now-deceased brother was born on Columbus Day, 1942, right smack in the middle of WW2, I, on the other hand, was born 1 year and 11 months after the end of WW2: July 12, 1947.
My dear brother (veteran) enlisted in the U.S. Navy back in 1960 and served on the aircraft carrier, the U.S.S. Constellation, and was involved in the 1962 Cuban Missile Crises which brought the world very, very close to a nuclear Armageddon...
I enlisted in the U.S. Air Force on July 9, 1965, and was trained as an Air Force cop, later to be known as a Security Policeman, and went to Vietnam on December 16, 1967, I returned home (a changed man) on December 16, 1968...
My now-deceased father was exempted from the military for some specific skill he had that contributed to the (WW2) war effort...
My now-deceased mother also contributed to the war effort by maintaining the home front as a loyal American -- and praying!
(I know she did a great deal of praying for my brother back in '62, and perhaps even more for me when I went to Southeast Asia back in '67!)
My dear, now-deceased uncle Vincent served in WW2 (in my uncle's honor, my brother's middle name was Vincent!).
I want to relay something at this point, something that occurred less than a year ago regarding my Uncle...
First, my Uncle was a Catholic. I'm not sure how much he practiced his faith, but what I do know is that he appeared to me in a dream... What I clearly remember is that we shook hands -- as one veteran to another. I took that to mean that he wanted me to pray for him, as if he needed help -- to get out of Purgatory, perhaps?
Up to that point, I had always included him, and my other deceased relatives, in our daily Rosary, by name!
So, after that dream, I had a Mass offered for him...
I hope that helped him enter the Heavenly Beatitude! And maybe, just maybe, I'll find out one day?
I realize this has been a long "intro" to "December 7, 1941," but I wanted to give a little personal background about our military service to our country, for better or worse.

Didn't Our Lady of Fatima warn that there would be another "great" war (WW 2) in which many good men would die, if mankind didn't convert, turn to Her Son and bend our knee in humility at the very mention of His name?? For no one comes to the Father except by Him! As there is no other Name under heaven by which we are saved!
As we know, wars and rumors of war are a result of grievous sins committed against God. The unfortunate result is that it is always -- always! -- the civilian non-combatants who suffer, with lives and homes destroyed, sometimes in the most heinous of ways. E.g., the fire-bombing of some German cities that caused a horrendous, hellish conflagration that snuffed out the lives of countless men, women and children...
As for the "sneak attack" on Pearl Harbor on that infamous Sunday morning -- yes, it was on Sunday morning when many were attending Mass, church, etc., only to realize that they were being plunged into hell on earth, but was it really a "sneak attack"? Or was there advanced knowledge of the Japanese heading toward the Hawaiian Islands? And was that knowledge purposely ignored -- or covered up? And if so, wasn't that a treasonous act resulting in the slaughter of close to 3,000 American military and civilians alike?
Wasn't it eerily similar to the future "sneak attack" on September 11, 2001, by a bunch of Arabs with box cutters taking over several airliners and flying them into the Twin Towers and the Pentagon, defeating our intelligence agencies and NORAD?
Conspiracy theories abound, but we see the results of those "conspiracy theories" and the loss of life, treasure and, most importantly, our freedoms and liberties granted to us by our good God -- not by the government!
The question is, when will we ever learn that we all have to change our ways, repent and treat our neighbors as we want them to treat us???
If only we would fulfill the two great Commandments: to love God and our neighbor, all the other Commandments, the law and the Prophets would be fulfilled and there would be -- dare I say it? -- a real peace on earth...
We are now in the Season of Advent... Let's get ready to welcome the Prince of Peace and Love into our hearts -- and the world!
I'll now get off my soapbox...
Pray for strength and honor!
Viva Cristo Rey! Bl. Fr. Miguel Pro, Fr. Emil Kapaun and Fr. Vincent Capodanno, pray for us...
If true, this is another example of the ape of the true Church of Christ!
Can you imagine a pope of the real Catholic Church approving or encouraging such madness that turns the Natural Law on its head?
The Bible is clear as to what happened to Sodom and Gomorrah because of the grievous sin that cries to Heaven for vengeance.
There is no wiggle room here, and yet we constantly see -- personal! -- encouragement to the likes of J. Martin and other bizarre, confused folks, by none other than Bergoglio himself.
By the way, where are the world's bishops in condemning such lunacy???? What are they afraid of???? Is it because they are of the same "orientation"?
I must warn you; it will be very difficult to stomach...
I have to ask where is the call to repentance and the pledge to amend one's life -- to go and sin no more?
There isn't any, but that's the new, novus ordo, synodal "church," and it's being foisted on a dumbed-down laity willing to swallow just about anything --well, because the pope says so and we have to obey, right?
Here is the subheading...Pope Francis and Cardinal Matteo Zuppi, considered a potential successor to Francis, have reportedly approved an LGBT event for the 2025 Jubilee, including a 'pilgrimage' passing through the Holy Door of St. Peter's Basilica.
"VATICAN CITY (LifeSiteNews) — Pope Francis has approved an LGBT-specific pilgrimage during the 2025 Jubilee year, an Italian Vaticanist reported, continuing his policy of openness to LGBT individuals.
According to a report by Il Messaggero’s Franca Giansoldati today, a pilgrimage to Rome specifically for LGBT individuals will take place next September, as part of the official Jubilee celebrations.
Giansoldati wrote that “a special moment of spirituality has been included in the official calendar of the Holy Year on Sept. 6, and the historic Baroque church of the Gesù has become the promoter of welcoming Lgbt+ pilgrims, their parents, workers and all those who gravitate to these rainbow associations.”
The beautiful and famously lavishly decorated church of the Gesù is the mother church of the Jesuit order, home to relics of St. Francis Xavier. Its usage by the LGBT pilgrimage is due to the event itself being the brainchild of a Jesuit priest from Bologna, Father Pino Piva, who brought the idea to the Pope.
According to Giansoldati, Francis approved the idea, which also received the backing of Cardinal Matteo Zuppi – the president of the Italian bishops’ conference. Not only this, but Father Arturo Sosa, superior general of the Jesuits, also supported the plan as “a good thing,” according to Il Messaggero.
However Giansoldati referenced a “lot of internal resistance” to the pilgrimage, though did not point to any more specific details.
The Dicastery for Evangelization – which oversees the Jubilee – has yet to respond to queries from this correspondent about the event. However, an official spoke to Reuters saying that inclusion in the official calendar did not imply support of a specific event.
The Dicastery’s pro-prefect Archbishop Rino Fisichella, has – according to Giansoldati – worked with the Pope to implement the necessary arrangements for the LGBT event.
The pilgrimage will be officially named “Church, Home for All, Lgbt+ Christians and Other Existential Frontiers,” and will be led chiefly by the prominent Italian LGBT organization Tenda di Gionata (TDG).
They will hold a prayer vigil in the Gesù on Friday, September 5 before then passing through the Holy Door at the Vatican on the Saturday.
TDG is, as a group “aimed at making ‘known the path that LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Christians) take every day in their communities and in the various Churches.” The group looks to present tales of LGBT “experiences” so that they “can help society and the Churches to open up to the understanding and reception of homosexual people.”
In promoting LGBT prayer events in recent years, TDG have posted a number of images including an icon of Christ backed by the rainbow flag, an icon of Christ with a rainbow colored halo, and an icon of Christ appearing as a transgender individual surrounded by individuals in modern dress.
Under the leadership of Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger in 1986, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) issued a document instructing bishops on the pastoral care of homosexual persons. The CDF admonished bishops to ensure they, and any “pastoral programme” in the diocese, are “clearly stating that homosexual activity is immoral.”
Such an authentic pastoral approach would “assist homosexual persons at all levels of the spiritual life: through the sacraments, and in particular through the frequent and sincere use of the sacrament of Reconciliation, through prayer, witness, counsel and individual care,” stated the CDF.
The instruction adds:
But we wish to make it clear that departure from the Church’s teaching, or silence about it, in an effort to provide pastoral care is neither caring nor pastoral. Only what is true can ultimately be pastoral. The neglect of the Church’s position prevents homosexual men and women from receiving the care they need and deserve.
Therefore special concern and pastoral attention should be directed toward those who have this condition, lest they be led to believe that the living out of this orientation in homosexual activity is a morally acceptable option. It is not.
Meanwhile the Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches that “homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered” and “contrary to the natural law.” The Catechism is very clear that homosexual activity can never be approved, and repeats that “[h]omosexual persons are called to chastity.”
End of article...
How much longer will the faithful be subjected to these errors, heresies, scandal and confusion emanating from apostate Rome? Only Our Lord knows and for us to endure...
We must pray earnestly for the defeat of these modernist monsters -- and for their conversion!
Viva Cristo Rey! Bl. Fr. Miguel Pro, Fr. Emil Kapaun and Fr. Vincent Capodanno, pray for us...
The question begs: why hasn't this bad actor "priest" been ex-communicated?
I realize that my question is a silly one, as we know (do we??) that what is passing for the Catholic Church in the new, novus ordo, synodal "church" is neither Catholic nor traditional -- in other words, it directly contradicts real Church teaching and Apostolic tradition.
And by the way, where is Cardinal Dolan, allowing this blasphemous sham of a "mass" in his archdiocese??
(Hint: remember it was Dolan who wore the "rainbow sash" in the St. Patrick's Day parade some time back!!)
The following article from lifesitenews.com and written by DougMainwaring is very hard to take, but the truth shall set us free!
"(LifeSiteNews) – A video clip of two women engaged in a so-called “liturgical dance” waving large rainbow LGBTQ+ pride flags as they twirl and swirl down the nave and into the sanctuary of a Jesuit-run Manhattan Catholic Church is being condemned by many Catholics on social media.
“This is vile,” began a statement by Catholic Vote, which first posted the now-viral video.
“During Mass at the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola in New York City, a blasphemous liturgical dance had dancers waving gay pride flags, desecrating the faith in a twisted attempt to appear more ‘inclusive,’” the statement continued.
“This is an abomination,” an X userresponded. “Is this church under Cardinal Dolan? We all need to write the episcopacy and get a statement/correction on this.”
“Nothing to see here, just a ridiculous rainbow dance at ‘Mass’ with the Rev. Bryan Massingale in NYC’s St. Ignatius of Loyola church, staffed by Jesuits,” Novus Ordo Watch said on X. “The occasion? It was World AIDS Day!”
“ … but they are restricting the Traditional Latin Mass … ” Dr. Taylor Marshall quipped.
“That is not the worship of God but of self. It is satanic without question,” another X user said.
“Our bishops must decide whom they serve and with one voice, denounce this,” they urged. “If you are unified, this will stop.”
“Pride flags fly at Church of St. Ignatius Loyola in NYC. This church is fully endorsed by Fr. James Martin- one of the Pope’s favored LGBTQ-affirming priests- and is host to the gay-affirming ministry LGBT Catholics & Friends,” yet another said.
In an August 6, 2020 article that appeared in U.S. Catholic, Fr. Massingale wrote that for Catholic parishes to have “credibility as the church of Jesus Christ” means to offer “extravagant welcome” to “LGBTQ Catholics.”
Massingale is a priest in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee who serves as a professor in the Department of Theology at New York’s Fordham University. He has written frequently for U.S. Catholic magazine as well as for the well-known dissident publication National Catholic Reporter. His work has been praised by infamous pro-LGBTQ+ Fr. Martin.
Unfazed
The Catholic Church condemns homosexual acts.
“Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that ‘homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered.’ They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved,” the Catechism of the Catholic Church states.
The Catechism is equally clear on what constitutes a family, stating, “A man and a woman united in marriage, together with their children, form a family. This institution is prior to any recognition by public authority, which has an obligation to recognize it.”
The term “domestic church” is merely another word for family, the Catechism adds.
Massingale, apparently, remains unfazed by Catholic doctrine."
End of very disturbing article...
Not only is Massingale "unfazed by Catholic doctrine," but he also fully supports, obviously, the sin of Sodom. And, if you see or smell smoke, there is usually a fire somewhere, correct?
Pray for the defeat of these mad modernists and for their conversion!
Pray too for strength and honor!
Viva Cristo Rey! Bl. Fr. Miguel Pro, Fr. Emil Kapaun and Fr. Vincent Capodanno, pray for us...
Very appropriate to start the novena for the conversion of the Bishop of Rome, Francis, on the magnificent feast of the Immaculate Conception!
I'll post the entire prayer that is embedded in the article from lifesitenews.com and written by LifeSiteNewsstaff...
Frist, here is the subheading of the article:From December 8 to December 17, LifeSite readers are invited to take part in a nine-day novena dedicated to the conversion of Pope Francis and restoration of the Catholic Church.
"STEUBENVILLE, Ohio (LifeSiteNews) — LifeSiteNews readers are warmly invited to take part in a nine-day novena dedicated to the conversion of Pope Francis and restoration of the Catholic Church.
Organized by the Confraternity of Our Lady of Fatima, the novena is set to take place from December 8 to December 17, which is Pope Francis’ birthday.
“We are doing this out of the utmost respect and concern for our dear Holy Father. As Catholics, we must ardently pray for him and his eternal soul before it is too late,” said Christopher Wendt, international director of the Confraternity. “Imagine what it would mean for the Church if Pope Francis were to return to the True Faith, retracting any dubious or heretical statements and addressing those disciplinary actions or appointments that have caused harm.”
“As Jesus prayed for the first Pope, St. Peter, in Luke 22:32, so too must we pray for the conversion of Pope Francis,” he added. “Out of respect and love for his eternal soul.”
Several groups, including LifeSiteNews, the Remnant, One Peter Five, and Crisis have been invited to each lead the prayer for one evening. Prayer will be shared via livestream every day of the novena, at 8 p.m. EST on the Confraternity’s website and Facebook page.
Here is the novena prayer:
O Lord Jesus Christ, You are the Good Shepherd! With your almighty hand you guide the Church Militant on earth through the storms of each age. Therefore, the boat of the Church remains unsinkable in the unheard crisis, which in our day obfuscates the honor of the Holy See and the life of the entire Church.
O Lord, grant Pope Francis the grace neither to fear the powerful of this world nor to compromise with the spirit of the age. Illuminate Pope Francis that he may preserve, strengthen, and defend the Catholic Faith unto the shedding of his blood, and preserve, protect, and hand on the venerable liturgy of the Roman Church.
O Lord, enkindle in Pope Francis the zeal of the Apostles, so that he may proclaim to the whole world: “Salvation is found in no other than in Jesus Christ. For there is no other name under heaven given to men by which they should be saved” (Acts 4:10-12).
O Lord, grant Pope Francis the grace that he may make the Holy See shine once more as the Cathedra of Truth for the whole world.
Hear us, O Lord, and through the intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Mother of the Church, and of all Holy Popes, grant Pope Francis the grace that he may be converted and strengthen his brethren in the faith, as you promised to the Apostle Peter (Luke 22:32).
O Lord, let thy mercy come upon Pope Francis! O Lord, let Thy mercy come be upon Thy whole Church! In Thee we place our hope, let us not be confounded forever.
Amen.
Since Francis assumed the papacy in 2013, LifeSiteNews has extensively covered ongoing controversies regarding various stands he has taken at odds with core Catholic doctrine.
In May 2014, LifeSiteNews published a groundbreaking story on Pope Francis’ concelebration of Mass with a notorious clerical homosexual activist, whose hand the new pontiff kissed in reverence. Pope Francis’ attempted erosion of the Church’s lifegiving doctrine on marriage and the family has only worsened over the past 10 years. To give only one early example, in 2016, the pontiff called abortion activist Emma Bonino, who herself committed abortions, one of Italy’s “forgotten greats.” To mention only one of the latest scandals, last week the Bishop of Rome declared that “every religion is a way to arrive at God.”
On multiple occasions in September 2024, Pope Francis suggested that “every religion is a way to arrive at God,” in direct contradiction of Church teaching that “The one true Church established by Christ is the Catholic Church.”
“Is Francis really the pope? Is Pope Francis even Catholic?” LifeSiteNews co-founder and editor-in-chief John-Henry Westen asked on November 26. “This is a debate being held by sincere men and women who are trying to interpret the realities they are witnessing in light of Catholic teaching, and they are engaging in this discussion with the goal of preserving the faith at a time of seemingly unprecedented crisis.”
Yes, we must pray for the conversion of Francis back to orthodoxy and the Catholic faith that, sadly, he has abandoned since being installed in the Chair of St. Peter...
Pray too for strength and honor!
Viva Cristo Rey! Bl. Fr. Miguel Pro, Fr. Emil Kapaun and Fr. Vincent Capodanno, pray for us...
