  Personal reflection  A real story published  in a real publication  is really pitiful and pathetic.

Christians in Pakistan face extreme persecution in every area of their lives. Believers who have converted from Islam face the greatest levels of persecution, but all Christians are considered second-class citizens in this strongly Islamic country. Christian churches do exist, but those that are active in outreach face severe persecution from society. Please keep praying for your Christian brothers and sisters in Pakistan and throughout the world. Watch the short Documentary of Akash Bashir: https://youtu.be/kEGKwIK1fEU

  Personal reflection: Why not leave them there to suffer the consequences of their actions? How long before they are in excruciating pain? Of course bring them food to eat and water to drink, but then they will have to pee and poop in their pants! The museum will be closed and the lights will be turned off, how will they sleep? Some will say, they’ve already paid for their crime, forever humiliated and shamed having this picture of them posted for all to mock and ridicule. Won’t it hurt to have their hands unglued? What will be gained? What will be lost? There’s not even a sign letting us know why they are doing this? Have they even really thought this through? Have they been paid to do this? Is this just done on a whim and will it end in a whimper? Warning for children: Please don’t try this at home. It may be harmful to your future health and happiness. Fools are everywhere to be found and these two are prime examples of this. They got their 15 seconds of fame, no...

  Volkswagen, the world’s second largest plug-in Electric Vehicle (EV) manufacturer just announced they won’t fill any new plug-in vehicles orders until sometimes next year. That is terrifying news for Biden’s pseudo intellectual cohorts, the determined Green Revolutionary cult.   But for a simple boy from Beulah, and a New York businessman, that’s no problem at all.   We have three to four hundred years of fossil fuels at our U.S. disposal to produce everything we need from lipstick to disposable diapers, eventually at Trump lower prices, with the world’s cleanest petroleum refining process. I have no doubt, if America is left in freedom, she will discover sufficient energy sources to fill the vacuum in the excess. In addition, we could balance our budget, save our Republic under God, continue our peaceful dominance in a very different world.   We may even be able to go back to Lady Liberty blindfolded JUSTICE! I want one of you D.C. leftist to tell me how an hone...

  From the end of Part I: The next morning I woke up to an image of two lambs laying on the ground, dead, in front of a partial brick wall. I am writing this meditation/prayer in order to seek a deeper understanding of that disintegration of the family, of what is causing it, and of the destruction that it has wreaked in our souls, our hearts, our minds, our bodies…and in our communities and our nation. I am writing this meditation/prayer in order to ask the martyred lambs, in union with Our Sorrowful Mother, to pray for the healing and restoration of families, for the healing of all who have been so deeply wounded, and for their intercession for those souls who urgently need our prayers. As the leader of a Catholic women’s prayer apostolate, Little Handmaids of Our Sorrowful Mother, I pray with you through the Rosary of the Seven Sorrows of Mary, the Flame of Love version. This is a Rosary that “blinds Satan”—that is, takes away his power to block God’s grace from souls thro...

  My husband, younger daughter, and I live 40 miles from Uvalde, Texas, where, on May 24, 2022, 19 students in the fourth grade and 2 teachers were killed at Robb Elementary. I have read that some of the students were shot in the face and couldn’t be identified even by their parents until a parent brought a DNA sample. Horrific violence! All of the victims were shot in one classroom. Some parents had to wait until that night to find out whether their child was alive or dead. My family and I, to my knowledge, did not know any of the victims, nor their families, but my heart has been aching, and I have been crying as if they were close family members. How can any person with an ounce of compassion not cry for the children, the teachers, and their families? The shooter was an 18 year old boy from a local high school. Before he drove to Robb Elementary to commit this grave evil, he shot his grandmother, who had raised him, in her face. The last report I heard was that she was in a ...

  Personal reflection:   It’s not that some abortion activists  are extremists;  it’s that ALL abortion advocates  are extremists,  because murdering innocent babies  should always and everywhere  be considered EXTREME  by denying human rights  and human dignity  to human life  growing and developing  in his or her mother’s womb.

Personal reflection:   Democrats are supposedly  against the death penalty,  except  when it is  the most innocent  and vulnerable babies  in their mother’s womb.  

Personal reflection: Life's too short to waste, especially on people play-acting make-believe problems. Just cut to the chase, where they live happily ever after. So I can get on with my life, hopefully to live happily in the hereafter.  

John 8:12: Jesus spoke to them again, saying,  “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” Personal reflection:  Pro-Choice for killing babies,  but not for taking vaccines  – Paid for by Pfizer    

 

The vast majority of children no longer grow up with both their married parents in the household.  Divorce rates remain high.  Cohabitation is common and acceptable, lessening commitment.  How has the government encouraged these detrimental trends?  Why are they worsening?  Helen Alvare, professor of law at George Mason University, explains.

  This section of George Orwell’s novel Keep the Aspidistra Flying (1936) indicates how deeply he hated abortion: Although an agnostic he was an enemy of the dishonest use of euphemisms, but also an ardent foe of abortion. “But I suppose you want me to marry you, don’t you?” “Not unless you want to. I’m not going to tie you down. I know it’s against your ideas to marry. You must decide for yourself.” “But we’ve no alternative — if you’re really going to have this baby.” “Not necessarily. That’s what you’ve got to decide. Because after all there is another way.“ “What way?” “Oh, you know. A girl at the studio gave me an address. A friend of hers had it done for only five pounds.” That pulled him up. For the first time he grasped, with the only kind of knowledge that matters, what they were really talking about. The words “a baby” took on a new significance. They did not mean any longer a mere abstract disaster, they meant a bud of flesh, a bit of himself, down there in her...

  Today is more than ridiculous. This is not America.  This is the Chicago mob running our kind, and gracious country, with Al Capone rules. We were once a nation of highest morality, with the rule of law and order unquestioned. We live today in a Woodward and Bernstein era, only interested in finding or creating a crime on Trump, while circling wagons of protection for Hillary, the Biden crime family, all in for far-left democrats or socialist. They are working to transform America into something she was never intended to be, a secular anti God nation, only answerable to an all-powerful government.  To do so, they must have easy elections to steal, with unguarded election drop boxes on the darkest streets, in democrat precinct, never again losing another election. Do you understand, Communist never lose elections, even when they actually do. We must have easier to vote, but harder to cheat elections we can trust, if we are to survive.   Ever wondered why, whe...
