Vax Injuries and Deaths, cont.

September 28, 2023

ACCORDING to VAERS, the federal database for vaccine injuries and deaths, girls as young as six have experienced menstrual bleeding after mRNA vaccination.

Dr. William Makis looks into the widespread phenomenon of women and girls experiencing abnormal bleeding and continues his daily coverage of the casualties. His work is not a condemnation or attack against those who have been vaxxed. Not all: it is a defense of them. His site is, however, aimed at those who are still arrogantly and cruelly promoting these drugs despite the extensively-documented harms.

NOTE: Dr. Makis also has recommended cures for spike protein effects on his Substack — all of them natural and easily obtainable.

 

 

Intellectuals and the Will to Power

September 28, 2023

Jan Cossiers – Prometheus Carrying Fire (detail)

“IF WE refer to idealism as a system of thought that proclaims the primacy of the intelligence over reality, the world in which we live today is an idealist world. It is built by intellectuals with tremendous reinforcements of abstractions, and it is superimposed on the world of experience which is constantly put in doubt.

“Our twentieth century world is so minimally materialist that it is a construction of the mind, from one side to the other, right down to its moral turpitude and its eroticism. Despite its pretensions and bluster, Marxism is not in any way materialist. It is an idea projected onto society in order to destroy it, knead it into dust, blend it into a mushy and obedient paste, and impose on it a form that is matured for a long time in a mind that is sequestered into itself, far from reality. It is all a lie, right down to the terms it decks itself out in, “dialectical materialism” or “scientific materialism.” Its idealism bursts out in its hate of all divine and human reality, in its desire to subjugate nature to its will to power, and in the extraordinary waste of material resources in which it engages to maintain its ideological orthodoxy in the countries where it has installed itself. Our world, in the so-called free democracies, is no longer materialist. It underwent transformations in its innermost depths brought about by the mind of modern man. Matter no longer appeared as its own reality. It is always transformed there by human contrivance.

“‘The illustrated prelate,” whose conversation with one of his disciples is recounted by Maurras, says it well:

‘Young man, you believe that materialism is the great error of the moment. False! It’s idealism.”
‘Why?’
‘It lies the most. Materialists are rightfully looked down upon. Because they are swine. But we can see them as such. We do not always see what social or political idealists are: Fellows who let everyone see their hearts, which are huge, and who pound their own chests while making a lot of noise, in order to put the world to flames in order to make it better.’

“With its sublime false airs, its pharisaism, its blissful elevation of thought and heart, and its hypocrisy, which is so deep that it is not self-aware, the idealism, for which modern intelligence is dying is without doubt the greatest sin of the mind.”

— Marcel de Corte, Intelligence in Danger of Death; transl. Brian Welter (Arouca Press, 2023), pp. 15-16

Embers of Fall

Autumn Colors, Edwin Wilkins Waite

Autumn Colors, Edwin Wilkins Waite

Autumnal Sonnet
William Allingham

Now Autumn’s fire burns slowly along the woods,
And day by day the dead leaves fall and melt,
And night by night the monitory blast
Wails in the key-hold, telling how it pass’d
O’er empty fields, or upland solitudes,
Or grim wide wave; and now the power is felt
Of melancholy, tenderer in its moods
Than any joy indulgent summer dealt.
Dear friends, together in the glimmering eve,
Pensive and glad, with tones that recognise
The soft invisible dew in each one’s eyes,
It may be, somewhat thus we shall have leave
To walk with memory,–when distant lies
Poor Earth, where we were wont to live and grieve.

 

 

The Intellectual Unbound

September 25, 2023

Prometheus Brings Fire by Heinrich Friedrich Füger

THE quaint notion that the intellectual is an enlightened guru leading the masses out of darkness cannot be seriously maintained. In the modern world, the intellectual is often a destroyer. His alienation from the ordinary person grows more and more pronounced.

At the root of their estrangement is this: the ordinary person needs something the intellectual doesn’t need.

He needs reality.

Falsehood and fantasies are, for one, expensive. Tell the plumber or the store clerk that reality is a figment of his imagination, a mere product of his thoughts; that there is no transcendent God and no absolute morality; that the past was a series of mistakes and cruel tyranny, and the plumber or store clerk will quickly run up an onerous bill. He can’t really afford the divorces, the drugs, the therapists and the purposelessness.

The intellectual supported by a foundation, a university, or a publisher, on the other hand, may actually be paid to be irrational. He can afford to abandon common sense. He can afford to entertain utopia. His mental work may also so satisfy that the simple pleasures of stability and routine lose their savor. He doesn’t need them to the same extent as the common man and he has more self-control anyway. Ideas, disconnected from reality, are the opiate of intellectuals.

The examples of intellectual destroyers are legion. Let me offer just one.

Dr. Johanna Olson-Kennedy, head of the gender clinic of at the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles, is ostensibly a medical doctor but her primary field is in ideas. It is here she has had her greatest impact. Ideas motivate and drive her.

When a 12-year-old boy feels he would be happier if he was a 12-year-old girl then she helps him embark on a long road of expensive and painful medical procedures. What the boy feels must become physical reality. According to Olson-Kennedy her work is a “congregation [sic] of science and human rights and social justice and medicine.” Her patients are “chasing authenticity” and what she gives them is nothing less than a “second birth.”

Dr. Olson-Kennedy is a real life version of Victor Frankenstein, the character in Mary Shelley’s novel of the same name.

Frankenstein was also an intellectual who got carried away. At a university in Germany, the fictional scientist immersed himself in his studies of chemistry. He developed a secret technique for creating life from inert matter. Things did not go well. The human simulation he created ended up killing what he valued even more than science: his young bride.

Olson-Kennedy says quite openly that she is creating life.

Parents, the doctor contends, are not competent to make decisions on this issue. She (and her “husband”) tell parents that if they do not accede to their wishes for their children, their offspring will commit suicide. (See minute 12:45 in this interview.) The problem with parents, according to Olson-Kennedy and their like, is that they are too caught up in reality. In the mind of an intellectual unbound, the ordinary person just can’t past what is and always has been.

According to Olson-Kennedy, if an adolescent girl who wants to be a boy has “chest surgery” and later regrets her decision, it’s no problem. She can just “go and get them.” Excuse my bluntness, but for the ordinary person a decent pair of fake breasts is prohibitively expensive, not to mention a sad substitute.

The intellectual’s fantasies are oh-so costly.

Frankenstein was, according to Shelley, a ‘modern Prometheus.” Indeed the Greek god was another “Intellectual as Destroyer,” so enamored of ideas that he stole forbidden fire from Mount Olympus. The Promethean fire will ever tantalize the man or woman of mental gifts. Today, it is their many victims who are pinned to the rock.

The Gnostic Roots of Transgenderism

September 22, 2023

FROM ThinkingWest:

Transgender ideology stems from the dualist philosophy of the gnostics. In transgenderism, a person’s feelings and beliefs about their identity reveal their “true” self, while the physical reality of their genitals or hormones can be false. If a person believes themselves to be a female despite having male reproductive organs, the will wins out, not the material reality. Whether the adherents understand or not, they are promoting a dualist interpretation of the cosmos. There is the spiritual “real” (divine) world of the mind which cannot be wrong, and then there is the physical (fallen) world of material, which can be mistaken if it conflicts with the reality created in the mind.

Like its gnostic roots, transgender ideology is in direct opposition to Christian beliefs, which firmly state that mankind was created by God as a union between spirit and body. Though subordinate to the spirit, the body is intrinsic to a person’s identity, hence the importance of the “resurrection of the body” referenced in the Apostle’s Creed. The Creed affirms the goodness of God’s physical creation and rejects the idea that salvation is gnosis or any other merely esoteric transformation or enlightenment.

Tremble, Earth

September 21, 2023

TREMBLE, earth, and you who proclaim yourselves as serving Jesus Christ and who, on the inside, only adore yourselves, tremble, for God will hand you over to His enemy because the holy places are in the state of corruption.”

Our Lady of La Salette, 1846

Black Lives Don’t Matter to Blacks

September 21, 2023

FROM Black People and Morality” by Richard Knight:

In the nineteenth century, the explorer Richard Lander wrote that Africans did not appear to have the least affection for their children: “A parent will sell his child for the merest trifle”.[13] Sir William Harris wrote that Africans would sell their children for the sordid love of gain.[14] “So little do they care for their offspring”, wrote John Duncan, “that many offered to sell me any of their sons or daughters as slaves”.[15] All over Africa, according to Mungo Park, parents might sell their children.[16] Strangely enough, Herbert Ward found that the cannibals of the Congo showed more affection for their children than did the non-cannibals.[17] Only among the cannibals did he ever see a father kiss his child.

Black people still show less love for their children than they might do, as seen in the fact that social services departments are always short of suitable Black foster-parents for Black youngsters. The race produces more neglected or mistreated children than it will take. We sometimes hear of cases like that of Victoria Climbié, whose great-aunt took her in to increase the welfare payments she would receive. She ended up torturing the six-year-old to death.

If John Duncan saw little affection between Black parents and their children, he saw no more between Black adults, nor did Herbert Ward ever witness “any display of tenderness betwixt man and wife”.[18] The naturalist Samuel Baker concluded that there was no such thing as love in Africa: “the feeling is not understood”.[19] One rarely sees Black couples holding hands today.

Africans Are Happier in Africa

September 19, 2023

In America the good that is in the Negro is to be controlled and repressed, but beyond the seas from whence he came, there is hope. In the home of his ancestors he will escape that intensity of competition before which he cannot stand, and be placed in an environment where his competitive inferiority will not inhibit initiative.

—- Ernest Sevier Cox

“DURING the centuries of contact, the white man has looked upon the Negro either as a case of hardened degeneracy or he has gone wild in the other extreme of expecting the Negro to assume equal rank with the Caucasian. Both theories are wrong. Possibly equally so. To deny the Negro the right to develop according to natural laws is unjust; to expect him to develop as a Caucasian is a species of sentimental insanity. The one overlooks that he is human, the other ignores that he is a race. He is human and should not be denied the right to work out his own salvation. He is a fully constituted race and like other races, is possessed of ineradicable race instincts and tendencies, and may work out his salvation along race lines only. This understanding of the Negro and the Negro problem will be at the bottom of any rational dealing with the Negro and the problem he constitutes to civilization.

“In the Ideal Negro State the Negro will develop as a Negro, in accord with his race instincts and capacities; but he may need white guidance in the first stages of his independence. Heretofore the white man has made the Negro work for the white man’s advantage. In the ideal Negro State, the white man, if there be need, may direct the Negro’s work for the Negro’s welfare. Heretofore the white man has received chief profit from the Negro’s labor; under a rational system of developing the Negro the latter alone will profit from his toil. Read More »

 

In the Words of Jefferson

In the Words of Abraham Lincoln

September 19, 2023

“‘THERE is a moral fitness in the idea of returning to Africa her children, whose ancestors have been torn from her by the ruthless hand of fraud and violence. Transplanted in a foreign land, they will carry back to their native soil the rich fruits of religion, civilization, law and liberty. May it not be one of the great designs of the Ruler of the universe, (whose ways are often inscrutable by short-sighted mortals,) thus to transform an original crime, into a signal blessing to that most unfortunate portion of the globe?’ This suggestion of the possible ultimate redemption of the African race and African continent, was made twenty-five years ago. Every succeeding year has added strength to the hope of its realization. May it indeed be realized!”

— Abraham Lincoln, Eulogy on Henry Clay, 1852

Politics As Entertainment

September 19, 2023

“American politics is intentionally fake and personality driven.

“We get to talk about Boebert’s theater groping, Hunter Biden’s cocaine, impeaching Biden, impeaching Trump, removing Kevin McCarthy, etc.

“All to distract from the fact that no one in government is actually doing anything the people want.

“As long as we are all focusing on personality politics and winning is defined by inflicting pain on the opposing side, we will be distracted from that fact that both sides are complicit in our descent to a miserable third-world country.”

Where Is the Church? (Half Truths vs. Whole Truths)

September 17, 2023

PATRICK HENRY writes at JMJsite.com:

[THIS] YouTube video has received a lot of views, and a lot of comments, and a number of other people making YouTube videos about “Father” James Altman’s YouTube video. In his video, “Father” Altman listed 20 cases of Francis/Bergoglio preaching heresy – and therefore he could not be the head and Pope of the Catholic Church. Because Bergoglio is not the Pope and not the head of the Catholic Church; it follows that the Conciliar Novus Ordo sect of which Bergoglio is actually the head – is not the Catholic Church. A more serious problem then the single fact that Francis/Jorge Bergoglio is not the Pope, is the fact that the Conciliar Novus Ordo sect is not the Catholic Church! Obviously, the true fact that the Conciliar Novus Ordo sect is not the Catholic Church is nothing new! That truth has been known for decades by hundreds of thousands of people. Bishop Francis Schuckardt told thousands of people that truth back in the 1960s. Years ago, Rev. Peter Scott (a priest of SSPX) stated at least 20 times in just one article that the Conciliar Novus Ordo sect is a new non-Catholic religion. It even seems ironically, jeeringly, oddly, and mockingly that Rev. Peter Scott uses the very documents and decrees of Vatican II that Archbishop Marcel 2 Lefebvre, Bishop Thuc, and the other Vatican II Council Fathers signed and promulgated to bring into existence this new non-Catholic Conciliar church!

Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre told the world in 1976 that the church he helped bring into existence is not the Catholic Church: “This Conciliar church is, therefore, not Catholic. To whatever extent Pope, Bishops, priests, or faithful adhere to this new church, they separate themselves from the Catholic Church.” Read More »
