Pope Francis says everybody needs to get Covid-19 vaccine, but regarding Baptism, not so much.
“God’s mercy is so great,” the Pope continued, “that even those who are not baptized receive it and can trust in the resurrection if their hearts are open.”
“I believe that ethically everyone must take the vaccine – said the Holy Father – it is an ethical option, because you risk your health, your life, but you also risk the lives of others”. “Next week” – added the Pope – we will start doing it here, in the Vatican, and I have booked. It must be done “.

Today’s Question: Good Friday
Question: Jesus dies and they call it ‘Good Friday’. But why and what was good about it?
Answer: The coming of the Son of God to die for us, so sins could be forgiven, is history’s greatest love story.
In that singular event, the Law, free will, good, evil, faith, grace and most importantly, God Himself, acted to bring about the salvation of the world.
It happened in a way that most never expected, that billions still refuse to accept and many more do not fully understand. It happened for the benefit of mankind and for the glory of God
And it was good!
Archbishop Vigano: Behind the deep state and the deep church there is always the same inspirer: Satan.
The Church does not belong to the Pope, and even less does she belong to a clique of heretics and fornicators that has succeeded in coming to power by deception and fraud. Therefore, we ought to unite our supernatural faith in the constant action of God in the midst of His people with a work of resistance, as counseled by the Fathers of the Church: Catholics have the duty of opposing the infidelity of their Shepherds, because the obedience that they owe them is aimed at the glory of God and the salvation of souls. We therefore denounce everything that represents a betrayal of the mission of the Shepherds, imploring the Lord to shorten these times of trial. And if one day we are told by Bergoglio that, in order to remain in communion with him, we must perform an act that offends God, we will have further confirmation that he is an impostor, and that as such he has no authority.
Therefore, let us pray. Let us pray very much and with fervor, mindful of the words of the Savior and of His final victory. We will be judged, not for the scandals of Bergoglio and his accomplices, but for our fidelity to the teaching of Christ: a fidelity that begins with living in God’s grace, receiving the Sacraments frequently, and offering sacrifices and penances for the salvation of the Ministers of God.
Today’s rare, planetary conjunction: Most likely a harbinger of the Antichrist
I’m not going to get into a long-winded treatment of the subject. Suffice it to say that if this planetary conjunction is a sign of the Antichrist, the return of the real Christ may only be two or three years away. Maybe even less.
The Catholic Church is in eclipse. Church corruption has run rampant. In a time of unparalleled, deadly crisis, Catholic priests have routinely been unavailable for Anointing of the Sick and last Sacraments. Mass is by reservation only, if at all. The strange, heretofore unimaginable, “Holy Sacrifice of the Mask” is now the “norm”. Easter and Christmas (except for the Vatican’s abysmal and embarrassing “Star Wars” Nativity Scene) have effectively, been wiped off the Church Calendar.
All the nations of the world are experiencing various kinds of turmoil. Death is reported to be (literally) viral. Government resources are under severe pressure. The worldwide supply chain is disrupted. Millions are unemployed. Yet somehow, the financial markets, the big corporations and the banks, continue to do well.
The U.S. Government is riddled by various types of systemic corruption, with the political parties further apart than ever. Thugs have looted and burned parts of many U.S. cities, while police and officials merely stood by and watched. Parts of some of those cities are still occupied by the same thugs. For the first time in recent history, we have a seriously contested presidential election, with no clear path for a resolution.
Russia and China continue to loudly rattle their respective sabres, while the “usual suspects” continue to make trouble, as best they can.
Peace is breaking out in the Middle East,
which according to the Book of Revelation,
is actually NOT a good thing.
Francis still appears to be the Pope and he has done nothing to make reparations for the high level, Pachamama Pagan idolatry that he recently, openly perpetrated on the Catholic faithful. Curiously, that abomination occurred about thirty days before Covid-19 first broke out. It also appears that Francis has betrayed the Catholic Church in China, to the Chinese Communists, for the equivalent of forty pieces of silver.
Cardinal Cupich of Chicago committed his own Pachamama Pagan Mass, in private, for a few privileged followers. But word got out, anyway.
Newly minted Cardinal Gregory, of Washington, D.C. recently perpetrated his very own version of Pagan idolatry and sacrilege, when he presided at a Catholic Mass featuring several (very long) minutes of Pagan dance, complete with feathered head dresses, weird costumes, dancers and big bowls of incense. (To be fair, a few Catholic symbols were included.) The affair resembled the palace dance scene from Eddy Murphy’s movie, “Coming To America”. YouTube has the (Gregory) video. The “funny” stuff begins around 1:07:40.
The majority of Catholic Bishops and their official lobbying group, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) supported Joe Biden for U.S. President, who is a known, ardent and demented, public promoter of unrestricted abortion and homosexuality (among other vile things).
There’s much more, but I digress.
The reasons I believe this planetary conjunction is a sign of the Antichrist (rather than the return of the real Christ):
1) Antichrist arrives on the scene BEFORE the real Christ returns. (Antichrist is active for seven years before Jesus returns, but for the first
3 1/2 years he operates mostly in secret.) That handily explains all the recent death and turmoil.
The planetary conjunction, if applicable,
would be the first “big” sign of Antichrist’s
immanent, public, “coming out”.
2) A worldwide, high profile sign, such as the planetary conjunction, is a sign of contradiction for the faithful, most of whom will think it means just the opposite of what it really does. Satan has always been very fond of such lying signs and wonders.
3) Most great artists prefer to personally sign their masterpieces. It’s simply a matter of pride. What better way than a planetary conjunction, mimicking the original Star of Bethlehem, for Satan to “sign off” on the year, 2020?
4) Things are so broken, in so many ways, particularly inside the Catholic Church, that divine intervention is probably the only hope, for a real fix.
What to do?
In the Gospel of Mark, Chapter 13, verses 32 to 37, Jesus advises: But of that day or hour no man knoweth, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father. Take ye heed, watch and pray. For ye know not when the time is. Even as a man who, going into a far country, left his house and gave authority to his servants over every work and commanded the porter to watch. Watch ye therefore (for you know not when the lord of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cock crowing, or in the morning): Lest coming on a sudden, he find you sleeping. And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch.
And, as the Boy Scouts used to say (maybe still do): “Be Prepared.”
Of course, I may be wrong.
Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Francis Doubles Down: Officially promotes TWO kinds of idolatry
Last year, Francis installed the pagan, Pachamama idol in the Vatican, followed this year, by a commemorative, Vatican “earth mother” coin.
Today, Francis publicly came out in support of homosexual civil unions.
Is the Pope Catholic? Go figure!
God made me this way
Popular headlines in the media earlier this year trumpeted Jorge Bergolgio’s telling a young man who is choosing freely to live a homosexual life that he should be happy because God made him that way.
Instead of condemning faithful catholics who speak the truth, why do the priests, bishops, cardinals and Jorge Bergolio not tell those they now condemn:
Be happy being a rigid RadTrad, God made you that way.
Be happy being a bully fundamentalist, God made you that way.
Be happy being a racist, capitalist critic of Jorge Bergolio, God made you that way.
What possible explanation could there be – if consistency is a standard for logical argument – for not applying the “God-made-you” justification to any sin- even the sin of being a faithful catholic?

Decoding the phrase “Defund the Police”
Many people fail to realize that the main purpose of any police force is to serve and protect THE GOVERNMENT.
That’s one reason large swaths of real estate and businesses, along with a good number of unfortunate people, were left open to looting, pillaging and other violence, during the recent riots.
The police were simply not trained or equipped to protect both the government and the people.
The priorities of the police were clear.
So, guess who lost out?
Defunding the police would leave the government undefended
and subject to violent overthrow.

Saying the blessing before meals might be way more important than you think
Exorcist Diary #9: Don’t Eat A Demon
I was having lunch with one of our gifted laity. We have several. This person has the gift of actually seeing demons. The plates of food were placed by the server in front of us but she did not start eating. It was noticeable. Finally, she looked up and said, “Aren’t you going to bless the food?”
By her demeanor, I knew something was up. I answered, “Something wrong with the food?” She nodded but said nothing. I guessed, “Are there some demons on it?” She said, “Yes.” I gave the typical blessing over a meal. She said the demons quickly left. Again, when the dessert came out, she hesitated. So, I asked again, “Are there demons on this too?” Again, she said, ‘Yes.” This time I made her say the blessing and they left.
Kind of makes you wonder what was going on in the kitchen?!

“Collateral Blessings”
Question: So, I like church, as it is relaxing.
However, I don’t even believe Christ is the son of god. And I’m agnostic (not the same thing as an atheist).
Also, there are lots of hypocrites in the church (that’s what I heard and am starting to notice). I dislike hypocrites (probably my top enemy).
So, I dislike hypocrites a lot, I don’t believe Christ is the son of god, and I can’t even decide if there is or isn’t a god. But, I do celebrate Christmas and Easter (like Christians) and church does help me relax.
Should I go to church?
Answer: Certainly, you should keep going to church.
One of the best reasons to attend worship services is “collateral blessings” – where “innocent bystanders” often receive the same, rich and powerful blessings as faithful believers do – just because they happen to be nearby.

Church Militant: In the wake of the (Amazon) Synod, all hell has broken loose. Tribulation and unrest of biblical magnitude have been unleashed on the earth. The timing is uncanny.
Unleashed: The Gates of Hell; The Power of Death.
In the months since the Synod, the advanced state of Western societal decay has been made utterly manifest. Violent mobs of anarchists and Marxists are swarming the streets of America’s urban cesspools to demand the annihilation of the nation as we know it, urging that the light of the “shining beacon on a hill” be forever extinguished in favor of a dictatorship of the proletariat.
Certain cities, such as the smoldering pile of communist ruin that is Portland, Oregon, have endured over two months (two months!) of successive nightly riots.
Deeply Concerned Catholic Priest Writes: I now believe we are at the point where half of America is possessed, or highly diabolically oppressed.
I now believe we are at the point where half of America is possessed, or highly oppressed.
For one, our 100 years of sexual sins and abortion have caught up to us. People screaming “racist!” at non-racists like Trump and Tucker without any evidence and without any interest in honest discussion first seemed to me to be the cause of insanity in our country. But now I see such insanity is the symptom (not the cause) of such insanity.
Such insanity has grown in the minds of Americans already ratifying their consciences under 50 years of killing of unborn children. Or, for example: The leftists ignoring the fact that coronavirus can be nearly cured by not only hydroxychloroquine but also by inhaled steroids at first seemed to me to be the cause of insanity in our country.
But as I look closer at this, yet again, I see that such insanity is simply the symptom (not the cause) of 50 years of killing our own unborn children.

Today’s question: What is the main reason you believe in Christianity?
Question: What is the main reason you believe in Christianity?
Answer: Catholic Christianity is not only historically accurate, but also fully documented, time tested and proved to be morally, logically and rationally sound.
The supernatural aspects of Catholicism are truly extraordinary, while the retirement plan cannot be beat.
That just about sums things up.
