MORE wisdom from the late Dolores Rose Morris:

Any time there have been attacks on the Church of the Old Testament or that of the New Testament, these rebellions and revolutions have been instigated from within by its very own leaders. Whenever this did occur, no one was willing to admit it, to realize it or to recognize it, because they themselves had become infected with the dreadful disease of spiritual blindness which prevented them from seeing what had happened and what would further happen from that point. They resisted any one who stood up to remind them of the Truth and point out their error. They even went as far as to murder the prophets God sent to them to remind them of their errors and to call them back to the Truth of the unchanging Law of God. (more…)

IT’S SAD more young people can’t see that the popularizing of hostility against “boomers” — i.e., their parents’ generation — is a classic, Marxist, divide-and-conquer tactic that has been used before in history and is being deliberately promoted by powerful agents of disorder who want total control over all generations.

It’s similar to the tactics of feminism, creating division between men and women for the sake of those at the top. Distract people from the real source of their pain. Whenever I go to our local mall, I see women and men in their 80’s working as sales clerks. ‘Ok, boomer! You’re the oppressor!”

The promotion of intergenerational warfare is a longstanding strategy of subversion that was successful in the Soviet Union and Communist China.

The term “boomers” has become a derisive slur against the old, exaggerating their failings to the point of obsession and expressing contempt for their sacrifices. It’s not that “boomers” don’t deserve criticism, it’s that the artificial intensification of it reeks of psychological warfare. A culture as materialistic as ours, and as enslaved by a system of debt-based usury that hurts young and old alike, is also naturally going to have little room or time for the old. So demonizing them fits. “Ok, boomer!”

"THIS is the elephant in the room. And it gets even worse when you add in minorities. Blacks vote 90 to 95% for the Dems. Acting like we have to 'discuss the issues' is a joke. THIS right here is one of the biggest problems we have. Simple reality." --- Legalman  

"THERE are those who seek knowledge for the sake of knowledge; that is Curiosity. There are those who seek knowledge to be known by others; that is Vanity. There are those who seek knowledge in order to serve; that is Love." --- St. Bernard of Clairvaux  

“THE current state of the world is due to the overall departure and lack of Grace which is due to the loss of the Sacraments of the One True Church. History does repeat itself. Many people do not want to face this most important fact. Constant revolutions and rebellions demoralized and destroyed the Jewish faith of the Old Testament to the point that the Jews did not recognize their very own long-awaited Messias when he did come to save them. Instead of rejoicing and following Him, they put Him to death. This spiritual blindness was self-induced by their unfaithfulness to the law. (more…)

“CHARACTER is the expression of the personality of a human being …. A man’s character is the resultant of two distinct classes of factors; the original or inherited elements of his being, and those which he has acquired. On the one hand, every human being starts with a certain nature or disposition — a native endowment of capacities for knowledge, and feelings, and tendencies towards volition and action — which varies with each individual. This disposition is dependent in part on the structure of the bodily organism and especially of the nervous system which he has inherited; in part, perhaps, also on his soul which has been created … The transmission from parent to offspring of hereditary dispositions, therefore, involves no conflict with the doctrine of the creation of each human soul.”

“YOU know how large a group they are, and how influential they are in politics. I will lower my voice and speak just loudly enough for the jury to hear me; for there are plenty of individuals to stir up those Jews against me and against every good Roman…” -- Cicero, in testimony before a Roman jury  

"THE topic of Jewish involvement in the Atlantic slave trade remains a contentious and often avoided subject within the academic community. The very mention of this issue can provoke accusations of antisemitism, creating a significant barrier to open and objective historical inquiry. This article seeks to address this issue by presenting a comprehensive examination of Jewish participation in the transatlantic slave trade, relying predominantly on scholarly sources authored by Jewish historians and academics." ---- Jews and the Atlantic Slave Trade: Analysis of the Jewish involvement in the Transatlantic slave trade  

“IT HAS been contended that the colonists, in first introducing the negroes into this country, were to some extent inspired by religious motives, and that the ‘soul-saving’ proposition was at the bottom of it; but in course of time the cloak became woefully threadbare, to be finally converted into a shroud in no way concealing the cadaver that might fitly stand for the emblem of this disgusting traffic. Slavery at first prospered in the colonies, and, seeing this, not a few attempts were made to enslave the indigenous redmen; but it was an utter failure.

“At an early date the British entered the field as slave traders, and they succeeded in this undertaking from the very start. Royal Companies were formed, treaties were drawn and ratified, and British slave trade soon became a powerful institution (1713). “In those days,” says an authority at hand, “the shipchandlers of Liverpool made special displays in their windows of such things as hand-cuffs, leg-shackles, iron collars, short and long chains, and furnaces and copper kettles designed for slavers’ use.

"COLOR problems are permanent problems. They will die only with the obliteration of the color line. If the white man is to remain white, color problems must persist. As long as there is a color line, there will be a color problem. Our future is clouded by such problems. They will not grow less, but ever greater, and our children' s children will bear them as intensified burdens. "The history of higher cultures will reveal that all those which are popularly called 'civilizations' may be traced in origin to the white race, while the history of the contact of races will reveal that the civilizations of the white man have never survived contact with the colored. We need and must have this knowledge if we are to reverse history." -- Earnest Sevier Cox, White America  

"WE the people" is now "we the children." Whether they're Democrats or Republicans, what difference does it make? The over-the-top Disney phenomenon is illustrative: Disney is sleazy creepy. So are the commercials/ads with cartoon characters, calling everyone by their first name, adult underwear with cartoon characters, bachelorette parties that last entire weekends and involve riding around drunk in limos, over-exposed women, the entire influencer-programmed "I deserve it!", "culture" of feeeelings and "experiences" is freakish.

FROM The Importance of Silence by St. Alphonsus de Liguori:

In the first place, silence is a great means of acquiring the spirit of prayer, and of disposing the soul to converse continually with God. We rarely find a spiritual soul that speaks much. All souls of prayer are lovers of silence that is called the guardian of innocence, the shield against temptations, and the fountain of prayer. For by silence devotion is preserved, and in silence good thoughts spring up in the soul. St. Bernard says: “Silence and the absence of noise in a certain manner force the soul to think of God and of eternal goods.”  Hence, the saints fled to the mountains, to caves, and to deserts, in order to find this silence, and escape the tumults of the world, in which, as was said to Elias, God is not found. (3 Kings, xix. 11) Theodosius the monk observed silence for thirty-five years. St. John the Silent, who gave up his bishopric and became a monk, observed silence for forty-seven years before his death; and all the saints, even they who were not solitaries, have been lovers of silence.

"IT is often said that celebrities are the new gods, attributed powers and abilities beyond the gods of Mt. Olympus. But they are phony gods, gods sought by us to fill the many voids in our own lives. They are the creatures of our collective wishes, beings who populate the country of our popular imagination. They can even acquire cultic status, functioning for us as surrogate saints and martyrs. James Dean's hometown and burial site (Fairmount, Indiana) is a pilgrimage site, where the faithful come to 'worship' at the grave of the departed but curiously immortal youth, now immune from time. Marilyn Monroe has become a feminist icon, the girl goddess who was martyred by the system of exploitation that made her into a celebrity in the first place but could not make her happy. She was a victim of the phony love transacted between her and her fans, which brought her much lust and notoriety but no real love. In death, Elvis Presley has become a cult figure, and the tabloids regularly report the latest sightings of "St. Elvis," including his intervening to comfort the troubled and heal the sick. These extremes suggest that celebrity worship is a phony religious experience, an idolatry of fame that leads ordinary people to seek sacred experience. "The confusion of religious and celebrity worship stems from the fact that the famous exist in a kind of status of transfiguration. They live in 'the…

 BELOVED yesterday. Beloved today. Beloved forevermore. Beloved by peasants. Beloved by kings. Beloved by the wretched. Beloved by saints. Beloved by the Father. Beloved by the Only Begotten Son. Beloved by the Divine Dove. And so it has been -- a continuous, wondrous, irrepressible devotion through the rolling centuries to the Immaculate Queen of heaven and earth.  

“SING,SING, ye angel bands,
All beautiful and bright;
For higher still and higher,
Through fields of starry light,
Mary, your Queen, ascends,
Like the sweet moon at night.

“A fairer flower than she
On earth hath never been;
And, save the throne of God,
Your heavens have never seen
A wonder half so bright
As your ascending Queen.

“O happy angels! look
How beautiful she is!
See! Jesus bears her up,
Her hand is locked in His;
Oh who can tell the height
Of that fair mother’s bliss! (Source) (more…)
