I CONTINUE to see people driving alone in face masks.

These people are not just victims of false theories of contagion. It seems that they have slipped into a generalized antipathy toward the physical world, believing it to be fundamentally dangerous and predatory. I can only imagine how miserable this state of mind is. While it’s true, nature is against us, the COVID believers so exaggerate this danger that every particle of air and solid surface is potentially lethal. They are at war with nature itself. Some of these people will never recover a state of ease, except in their own micro-managed, anti-bacterial homes.

The plannedemic spawned a seemingly new religious cult in America, but actually it is one with deep ideological roots in this country. Covidianity is quintessentially American.

Two main aspects of this cult’s belief system are 1) a Gnostic belief in the evil of physical matter and 2) morally-righteous utopianism.

I offer a few quick thoughts here on these roots, but they are entirely inadequate to the subject.

The Puritans brought similar harsh views of the physical world to these shores. Their Sabbath protocols, for instance, were opposed to any kind of natural pleasure. They disdained all ornament in dress, which would be too reminiscent of the feasts and festivities of Old Europe. Their worldview would later develop into the Prohibition movement, which banned the sale of all alcohol. The Puritan was extremely moralistic and totalistic in regard to sensual dangers.

The Puritans also brought utopianism and a spirit of activism, what Scottish philosopher David Hume called a “gloomy enthusiasm.” From Hesiod’s Corner: Read More »

FROM The Passion and Death of Our Lord Jesus Christ by Alban Goodier, 1944:

Naturally the topography of the Passion is far more simple than is that of the Public Life. If before we had to remind the reader of the small area of Palestine, much more must we do the same when we speak of Jerusalem and its neighbourhood. As for the sites of the various scenes* though, as we have said, scholars can be found who differ concerning almost all, and though time, instead of solving these problems, seems only to increase them, for a study such as this these discussions must be of minor importance. The author has accepted, more rather than less, the traditional sites as they are shown in and about Jerusalem to-day; and he has done so, both because he believes they have as good a claim to acceptance as any other, indeed in most cases there is no other ; but also because in any case it is more important to be definite from the beginning, than to break the narrative by side issues.

Transfiguration of Christ (detail) c. 1550; unknown icon painter

“AND the disciples hearing, fell upon their face, and were very much afraid.  And Jesus came and touched them: and said to them, Arise, and fear not. And they lifting up their eyes saw no one but only Jesus. And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying: Tell the vision to no man, till the Son of man be risen from the dead.” [Matt. 17: 6-9]

IN “I’ve Never Been to Me” sung by Charlene Marilynn Oliver, known simply as Charlene, an older woman addresses a young woman and reflects on her own past, ruined by the false dreams of feminism.

At the (pseudo-Catholic) Remnant,  Chris Jackson offers perceptive commentary.

 She notices a younger lady who is miserable with her state in life, married with children. We can imagine so many young women in our country who no doubt find it extremely difficult trying to raise a family in our current society. The drudgery of daily obligations, trying to make ends meet, the constant needs of the children and husband. Meanwhile the culture is constantly providing the enticing siren song of an escape. If you free yourself of this burden of a family you can make more money, you can go on expensive vacations, you can find true romance, you can live your dreams. The song continues as the older lady explains she has already lived the life the young wife and mother is dreaming about …

I know many women who have lived this song. Feminism creates an ever-flowing river of tears.

Won’t you share a part of a weary heart that has lived a million lies?

The song, by the way, was written and composed by two men, Ron Miller and Kenneth Hirsch. It was not much of a sensation when it was released in 1977, but became a hit in 1982. In this video, Charlene sings the song in her wedding dress.

KAMALA HARRIS in her speech alongside Polish President Andrzej Duda this week in Poland offered a quick study in why women should not be political leaders.

Notice how glaring the male/female difference was as the gigglingly effusive Harris stood next to the rigidly unsmiling Duda.

In other roles, perhaps if she was a hostess at a nice restaurant, Kamala’s laughter, her expressions of empathy, her consistent appeals to emotion, her bungling of basic phrases might all be perfectly charming. But not for a world leader near a purported war zone.

Granted many women would do much better than this and men can make terrible vice presidents. But it’s not worth the risk of having an entire nation led by a kindergarten teacher. Besides women, even those as ambitious as Kamala, have better things to do.

The globalists have always wanted women at the top because they are easier to control and are better at emotionally manipulating the masses. Honestly, I felt a bit sorry for Harris. Not that I have ever seen her looking or acting even remotely  vice-presidential. But she seemed so nervous and out of her depth. Men are made for stress and crisis, not women. Is it any wonder many talented women are half-mad (or completely bonkers)? They are placed in such stressful situations and are as out of their element as ducks in a desert. Read More »

“RUSSIA is nothing but a long impoverished multi-ethnic state run by a cabal of criminal Jewish mobsters seeking world domination—the same as it was under Gorbachev, Khrushchev, Stalin, and Lenin. Nothing has changed but the design of the national flag and the official titles of the country and its massive internal security apparatus (Putin even reverted the national anthem back to the Soviet one, although without lyrics). If you haven’t figured this out by now, you absolutely must read the revelations of late Soviet defector Anatoliy Golitsyn in New Lies for Old and The Perestroika Deception. Genuine Western conservatives and Christians are being set up for total annihilation. It’s a trap! Get out!”

THIS music video allegedly from an anti-tank unit in Ukraine must have been conceived by the same liars who cooked up the idea of dancing nurse videos and brought you the dystopian flick, COVID: The Pandemic.

ACTOR Sean Penn the other day, in an interview with CIA-affiliated Anderson Cooper, tearfully praised another actor, Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky, as a great hero. Translation: Zelensky is being deliberately valorized by the globalists for their own strategic reasons and a Hollywood actor/con artist has been brought in to help.

“I don’t know if he knew that he was born for this, but it was clear I was in the presence of something. … This is such an extraordinary moment and I was endlessly impressed and moved by him.”

This is emotional manipulation by highly-skilled psychopaths — brainwashing even Orwell wasn’t clever enough to imagine.

Penn also said that every day he is “inspired” by his “extraordinary ex-wife.” Yes, indeed, no one could be more inspiring than the used-up, pornographic, black-robed, Lucifer-worshipping senior citizen, Madonna. Honestly, I just can’t help but see the producers of this stuff keeling over with laughter afterward.

I don’t know everything that’s going on, but I am absolutely sure the Russia/Ukraine conflict is a narrative heaped to the sky with lies and is being used to further destabilize this country with the sort of subversion that former KGB agent Yuri Bezmenov (see below) warned of years ago.

Traumatized and beaten up by the COVID scam, willingly hostage to screens and professional con artists, apocalyptically witless Americans face a new round of political theater. No one is more easily preyed upon than the person who doesn’t really believe in evil and lacks even a mental framework for believing in it.

IN CASE, you didn’t know: Volodymyr Zelensky, president of Ukraine, is an actor.

Similar to Donald Trump, he’s not a real statesman, but an accomplished entertainer playing a role.

His sleazy dance videos illustrate just how much the world is being played. The Russia-Ukraine conflict has taken over the Covid narrative in the news. Both sides of the war are certainly controlled by the same people. Read More »

“IT IS very necessary that the tongue be well-bridled and regulated because we are all much inclined to let it run on upon those things which are most pleasing to the senses.

“Much speaking springs ordinarily from pride. We persuade ourselves that we know a great deal; we take delight in our own conceits, and endeavor by needless repetitions to impress them on the minds of others, that we may exercise a mastery over them, as though they needed instruction from us.

“It is not possible to express in few words the many evils which arise from overmuch speaking.

“Talkativeness is the mother of sloth, the sign of ignorance and folly, the door of slander, the minister of falsehood, the destroyer of fervent devotion. A multitude of words adds strength to evil passions, by which again the tongue is the more easily led on to indiscreet talking.”

—  Dom Lorenzo Scupoli, The Spiritual Combat, 1589

“THE charity which the world has set up, which it calls Philanthropy, and which it exercises not in the name of God, but solely for the sake of man, this pretended virtue is a mere delusion, is incapable of producing love between those who give and those who receive, and its results must, necessarily, be unsatisfactory. There is but one tie, which can make men love one another: that tie is God, Who created them all, and commands them all to be one in Him. To serve mankind for its own sake, is to make a god of it; and even viewing the workings of the two systems in this single point of view, the relief they afford to temporal suffering, what comparison is there between mere Philanthropy, and that supernatural Charity of the humble disciples of Christ, who make Him the very motive and end of all they do for their afflicted brethren? The Saint, we honour today, was called John of God, because the Name of God was ever on his lips. His heroic acts of charity had no other motive than that of pleasing God; God alone was the inspirer of the tender love he had for his suffering fellow-creatures. Let us imitate his example, for our Lord assures us, that he considers as done to Himself, whatsoever we do even for the least of his disciples.”

— Dom Prosper Gueranger, “St. John of God,” The Liturgical Year, 1870

FROM Brandon Smith at Alt-Market.US:

Putin recently threatened western governments with a reprisal the likes of which they have never seen before if they try to interfere in Ukraine. The problem is that many in the mainstream and alternative media automatically assumed this was a threat of nuclear war. I don’t think this is what Putin was referring to. I have another theory…

The globalists are unlikely to spend the past several decades building up one of the most complex technocratic control grids in history to track and dominate the public only to then annihilate it all in the blink of an eye with nukes. A post-nuke environment would be impossible for them to control.  What is more likely, in my view, is a massive cyber-attack that targets the functionality of the internet itself, and it would have to happen relatively soon.

The amount of economic and business operations tied to the web is staggering. Even if the internet was to go down for a mere two weeks, the repercussions to our markets and to our supply chain would be devastating. By extension, the benefits to the globalists would be immense. They could implement filters and firewalls on any part of the web they don’t like (including the alternative media) and claim that this is to protect the internet from possible sources of viral spread. They could whittle the web down to only a handful of approved corporate and government sites all in the name of protecting the integrity of the net.

Oh, boy. The Thinking Housewife will probably not make the cut.

What will they think of next?

“THE Revolution incessantly repeats the word ‘freedom.’ What it means by this word is that every man should free himself from the laws and self-preserving instincts of his own nature, that he should dispossess himself of all inner strength, restraint, and virtue, to say nothing of the inner dominance of Christ by His truth and grace. The purpose of corrupting a person is to put him at the disposal of his fallen nature; the purpose of destroying his faith and of dispossessing him of all certainty is that he will have to be controlled from without. The Revolution means to unshackle a man interiorly, that it may have the excuse of encircling him with the mindless mob (which the ‘Community’ is), of regimenting him, binding him, and putting him under guard. Despising virtue, which is man’s mastery of himself by the power of Christ, even being unable to comprehend it, the Revolution cannot conceive a community of truly free men, nor the idea of peace through the rule of the Spirit of God.

“The true Revolutionary cannot stand to be alone, to be in silence, to be inactive. In such a condition he would either go mad or find God. Because of his own spiritual vacuity and restlessness, and because of his conceited passion for ruling, for managing others, he cannot permit anyone to be alone.”

DISCUSSION, when there is any, goes like this:

“You’re entitled to your opinion, and I’m entitled to mine.”

Or, “That’s fine for you, but not for me.”

Or, “We all have different paths.”

The air is ignited with the gasoline of self-assertion. Truth is engulfed in flames of opinion. Try to stand and the bottoms of your feet are scorched.

Teeth are razor sharp. Fingernails are like daggers. Right and wrong can’t be right or wrong. But they facilitate discussion.

Everyone agrees to disagree. Read More »

IN a new, televised interview, Melinda Gates (now rebranded as Melinda French Gates) suggests that her husband’s friendship with Jeffrey Epstein was a factor in her recent decision to seek a divorce.

I previously wrote about the divorce of Melinda and Bill:

I could care less about the alleged divorce of these two nauseating, murderous megalomaniacs with their poisoned needles. Did people in Soviet gulags take a sincere interest in the love life of Stalin? I hope not. The Gates Divorce is like the Meghan and Harry story — soap opera slop revolving around two vile creatures. Reading it is like handling slime. I believe this story is intended to boost the heterosexual creds of the eugenicist Bill Gates. Oh, what a lothario he is with his corporate exec girlfriend!! I suspect far more sinister predilections for this effeminate friend of pedophilia-pusher Jeffrey Epstein.

But even so, I am interested in the power and influence of these shady characters.

We can’t trust anything the Gates’s say, so heavily is their image managed. But we can read between the lines.

And listening to the interview, with its teary, feminist cliches, I realized that this divorce was necessary in order to protect the Gates’s global “philanthropic” schemes.

Bill’s friendship with Epstein cast a pall over one of the major boasts of Bill and Melinda: their concern for the rights of women. The recent trial of Ghislaine Maxwell provided all too many details of Epstein’s conception of women’s rights.

How could the Gates’s liberation of the women of the world go on if the couple remained together?

Now that Melinda has expressed her abhorrence of Epstein and left Bill, she is free to move ahead with their joint agenda of “empowering women.” That means encouraging them in every way to pursue life outside the family. That means worldwide distribution of pharamceutical contraceptives, encouragement of abortion, and efforts to undermine the male provider through anti-male discrimination in lending. “Empowering women” looks suspiciously like empowering global financiers, for whom large, traditional families stand in the way of reducing every human being to a tax-paying, fully employed, debt slave.

In light of this interview and Melinda’s ongoing claim to be an advocate of women, this 2012 “Open Letter to Melinda Gates” by the Nigerian woman Obianuju Ekeocha is worth reading: Read More »

YOU MIGHT be surprised at just how different Lent was through the ages:

During the two thousand and more years, which preceded the Deluge, men had no other food than the fruits of the earth, and these were only got by the toil of hard labour. But when God, as we have already observed, mercifully shortened man’s life, (that so he might have less time and power for sin), – he permitted him to eat the flesh of animals, as an additional nourishment in that state of deteriorated strength. It was then, also, that Noah, guided by a divine inspiration, extracted the juice of the grape, which thus formed a second stay for human debility. Read More »

FROM Kit Knightly at OffGuardian:

Countries all over the world are totally scrubbing their Covid measures, mask mandates and social distancing rules.

The CDC has changed their guidance on vaccine doses, and said people don’t need to wear masks anymore. Boris has done the same, and (some) of the UK’s emergency powers are going to expire soon.

It seems like Covid is over, and the good guys won, right? Read More »
