"THE saints are friends of God. They are like the angels in heaven. We honor them, not as we honor God, but on account of the relation they bear to God. They are creatures of God, the work of His hands. When we honor them, we honor God; as when we praise a beautiful painting, we praise the artist. "We do not believe that the saints can help us of themselves, but we ask them to "pray for us." We believe that everything comes to us "through Our Lord Jesus Christ." With these words all our prayers end. It is useful, salutary, and reasonable to pray to the saints and ask them to pray for us. No doubt all will admit the reasonableness of this practice if the saints can hear and help us. "That they hear and help us is evident from many passages of Scripture. The patriarch Jacob would not have prayed to the angel to bless his grandchildren Manasses and Ephraim (as we learn he did from Gen. xlviii.), unless he knew the angel could do so. We are informed (Luke xv.) that the angels rejoice when one sinner does penance. We are also informed (Matt. xxii.) that the saints are like the angels--i.e., have the same happiness and knowledge. Hence the saints, as well as the angels, can hear us, can help us, and are acquainted with our actions, words, and thoughts. "It is generally conceded that…

"WHAT We said at the beginning of Our Pontificate concerning the decline of public authority, and the lack of respect for the same, is equally true at the present day. 'With God and Jesus Christ,' We said, 'excluded from political life, with authority derived not from God but from man, the very basis of that authority has been taken away, because the chief reason of the distinction between ruler and subject has been eliminated. The result is that human society is tottering to its fall, because it has no longer a secure and solid foundation.' --- Pope Pius XI, Quas Primas, 1922, on the Feast of Christ the King (last Sunday of October)  

FROM The Nature, Dignity and Mission of Woman by Fr. Karl Stehlin (Kolbe Publications, 2018):

“… One of the most beautiful and fortunate things a human being can experience is the assurance that he has a home, a place where he can rest and withdraw from the commotion of everyday cares and concerns and renew his strength and vitality. And that is the woman’s role. That is why God, as we have already observed, designed her to have the qualities of constancy, “inertia”, patience and endurance. Constant change is not in her nature. On the contrary, she likes to be at home, beside her own hearth. She is not simply a place of rest; she actively opposes the agitation and unrest of the world, takes it into herself, so to speak, and thus causes it to come to rest. So it often happens that a child comes back home excited, worn out, upset, trembling and heavy-hearted. The child throws its arms around the mother’s neck, perhaps has a good cry and commends itself to her care, and then after a few moments his heart is peaceful and calm again. How indescribably important the restful, imperturbable qualities of a wife are for the husband, too, in his struggle to make a living today. This composure that soothes and radiates peace, this poise when everyone else is losing his temper—that is the great mission of woman in our time, which she can accomplish, however, only if she draws strength from the source of all peace, when she herself comes to rest at the feet of Him who is everyone’s final home.

FROM The Persecution of the Catholic Church in the Third Reich:

On June 8th, 1939, the Schwarze Korps published the following reflections on religion under the title “The Nature of God.”’

We have long considered the problem: Which Christian doctrines are repugnant to the moral dispositions of the German race, and must be regarded, according to the clear teaching of Article 24 of the Party Programme of the NSDAP, as incompatible with racial conceptions? We have come to the conclusion that a host of Christian conceptions are, indeed, incompatible with our own. .

Those of us who travel through the German countryside and suddenly, in the midst of some view of snow-covered Alpine peaks or on some solemn Westphalian moorland, meet with the figure of the Crucified must feel deep down in our hearts—if we have any true blood-consciousness at all—a strange, enduring sense of shame. The Gods of our forefathers were not like that. They were true men, men with weapons in their hands, typifying the innate view of life and the dynamic realisation of personal responsibility of our race. How different is this pale crucified one! His attitude of passivity, the deeply-engraven sorrow of His features, expressing humility and complete self-abandonment—these are all qualities which contradict the heroic, fundamentai presuppositions of our blood-consciousness.

Reporters and politicians deliberately use emotionally-charged words in their scripts to psychologically trigger the masses. The targeted audience then projects themselves into the story given. *** "THE truth about Fake Mass Shootings and Hoaxes has been available for over a decade. In 2015, researchers with hundreds of channels exposed these theatrical productions. Researchers would immediately go to YouTube after the Hoax of the Week was presented on the mainstream news and fill the comment section with refutation and evidence to contest the lies. In 2017-2018 there were a ton of Fake Shootings and Hoaxes. They really amped up the frequency dramatically. Simultaneously all these channels were removed. Now, the comment section is highly monitored and full of bots/trolls that support every single fake event. So let me give you a timeline for you to understand the progression and sprawl of this agenda that is slowly taking down America by deception. "The real kickoff for incessant hoaxes began in 2011, when Obama introduced the 'Strong' Cities Initiative. The Strong Cities Network was created in the interest of combating 'domestic violent extremism' on the local level. This was done to set the stage for fake events and the take down of America - one 'Community' at a time. Obama then introduced the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012, which provided legal protection to the government for broadcasting propaganda to its own citizens. There has been an endless parade of "Strong" labeled events that…

The Lewiston madman has exited the stage, allegedly found dead last night by suicide. The scene was set in a once French Catholic city in Maine (and home to a magnificent Basilica), more recently the target of aggressive immigration policy, and now the stage of a freak show.

No doubt Hannaford groceries stores and Bangor Savings Bank, among the biggest of the many essential businesses to shut down during the Maine terror show, were incentivized by our government to replay the lockdowns of the Covid script, including school closures.

But the play is not over. The madman in the script may be dead, but more madmen are at large, even if they have to use the back door. Biden clamors for the ability to sue gun manufacturers, and, yet to be publicly announced, DHHS will be requiring agencies to administer (anti)-gun training for people dependent on government.

I’m not afraid of the madmen, either real or fictitious, but I am afraid of a government that terrorizes its own citizens and threatens to take away the ability of citizens to defend themselves against its tyranny.

This Manhunt/Lockdown drill is a big production, involving multiple states including New Hampshire and Massachusetts (Boston conducted their own Manhunt-Lockdown Drill in 2013 so they are happy to assist). They even involved the Coast Guard for this one, which I have never seen before. This event is reminiscent of the Eric Frein Manhunt/Lockdown drill conducted in 2014 – same dynamic, with way more fanfare. This conditions the unwitting masses to obediently remain in their homes when commanded and to report anything seen – such participation assists with the simulated exercise and contributes to the “realism” they strive to create within the minds of the masses. This is a huge psychological operation that is currently controlling the city of Lewiston. (more…)

JUST when you think this ship of fools can’t get any worse, Republican Mike Johnson comes aboard.

The anti-white propaganda is relentless. Nowhere to run from it. Truth is, his black son will be overwhelmed with college scholarships. His white son will rack up quarter of a million for his degree in collective guilt. His white son’s future will be a tale of racial discrimination.

“The first bill that I’m going to bring to this floor will be in support of our dear friend Israel.”

Thanks, Mike. We knew you wouldn’t let us down. Our borders are down, but we’re itching to spend billions more on border security for Israel. (more…)

By now you have probably heard the reports of a gunman in Lewiston, Maine. Here’s one that just popped up on my search, since this incident in Maine is now national news and this was headlined on Drudge Report.

If you watch the woman who has broken down in tears, you won’t find any tears – this is some bad acting.

Lewiston was the target of Catholic Charities for a massive influx of Somalian immigrants about 30 years ago, which turned the place upside down. Anyone who questioned it, including the mayor at the time, was branded as a racist. As you probably know, Maine, one of the poorest states, has continued to receive immigrants, and is slated for 75,000 more immigrants over the next decade.

With all that as a backdrop, I find it interesting that this gunman is white, looks like a normie who has been involved in gun training in a state with a lot of guns, and is already identified. With all the people with cell phones, I haven’t seen any footage of carnage at the bowling alley, and I am not going to waste any time looking. A mom and daughter were interviewed in another report. Supposedly the young girl was grazed by a bullet at the bowling alley last night, but she didn’t look the least bit traumatized as she discussed the incident in front of a camera. (more…)

"FOR the simple and obvious truth is that the world as a whole is up to the ears in debt to its banks and bond-holders, and while it desperately needs more money, it knows that its only means of acquiring it is by further borrowing from the former source, thereby increasing a debt burden which is already mathematically incapable of any resolution whatsoever. It has, in fact, discovered by bitter experience, that you cannot borrow yourself out of debt; especially if you have to pay eternal interest on all your borrowings or else forfeit personal property in lieu of it. "For if we examine the specific examples which have been referred to, it will be discovered, if it has not already been stated, that the cause for the lack of money to exchange goods and services, is the universal imposition by finance, of an impossible burden of debt, which is fatally crippling the development and even threatening the very existence of individuals,  business concerns, nations and the actual bases of civilization itself." --- Jeffrey Mark, The Modern Idolatry, Being an Analysis of Usury and the Pathology of Debt, 1934  

FROM “Of Prayer and Meditation” by Venerable Louis of Granada:

HOW MANY the miseries are that be included in this misery alone, I will not take upon me to declare at this present. Only I will rehearse what a certain holy father saith by way of exclamation against death in this wise. O death, how bitter is the remembrance of thee? How quickly and suddenly stealest thou upon us? How secret are thy paths, and ways? How doubtful is thy hour? And how universal is thy seignory, and dominion? The mighty can not escape thy hands: the wise can not hide themselves from thee: and the strong lose their strength in thy presence. Thou accountest no man rich: forsomuch as no man is able to ransom his life of thee for money. Thou goest every where: thou searchest every where: and thou art every where. Thou witherest the herbs: thou drinkest up the winds: thou corruptest the air: thou changest the ages: thou alterest the world: thou stickest not to sup up the sea: all things do increase, and diminish, but thou continuest always at one stay. Thou art the hammer that always striketh: thou art the sword that never blunteth: thou art the snare whereinto every one falleth: thou art the prison wherein every one entereth: thou art the sea wherein all do perish: thou art the pain that every one suffereth: and the tribute that every one payeth.

O, THOU strong and sacred silence, self-contained in self-control; O, thou palliating silence, Sabbath art thou of the soul; Lie like snow upon my virtues, lie like dust upon my faults. Silent when the world dethrones me, silent when the world exalts. Tamper not with idle rumor lest the truth appear to lie; Carve thy life to hilted silence, wrong shall fall on it and die. Tamper not with accusation, harvest not what thou hast heard, Christ stood in the court of Herod, but he answered not a word. Know thou this that there is nothing in the sounding lists of life That so fortifies thy manhood as the argument of life; Listen not to old wives’ fables, draw thyself from such apart, Keep the thought of life like Mary, virgin to a virgin’s heart. It is well for us to suffer, it is well for us to wait; Well to swing like little children all our life on death’s loose gate; Well to feel a mortal sickness wean the soul from earthly spell; Well to hear when all is over, that sweet whisper, “All is well.” ---from Silence by Samuel Miller Hageman
