Articles For Heart Mind Soul

  KEEPING AMERICA GREAT IS A HARD JOB by Gene Chapman Thomas Sowell, my favorite columnist once wrote, “Ours may become the first civilization destroyed, not by the power of our enemies, but the ignorance of our teachers and the dangerous nonsense they are teaching our children. In an age of artificial intelligence, they are creating an artificial stupidity.” What a great man, Stanford Professor Sowell is, starting as a young Black Communist, morphing into an ever-learning world influence of free market Capitalism wonderous greatness, with his deep, probative understanding of mankind. I never knew Charlie Kirk, but I can’t imagine that he was not deeply influenced by Thomas Sowell economic writing. He is now retired, deep into his nineties, and irreplaceable. Who can argue that liberal Harvard, once recognized as world elite, is not now producing DEI, CRT students, fundamentally changing America. Leftist Columbia University students were, almost a journalist requirement at the New ...

 

  Break Free of the bad news from the bragging and boasting brutal beast by Marian Casillas, Ed.D. There’s nothing new about “the news”, it’s as old as Cain and Abel!   Don’t watch or listen to the devil bragging and boasting about all the evil deeds he has tempted others to commit! Don’t give him a platform to publicize his pathetic pillages and pitiable plunders! Say NO to the bad news coming forth from the secular media, and say YES to the GOOD NEWS coming forth from Sacred Scripture, the Word of God! Reject in becoming influenced by the bad news of the world, and be immersed in becoming influenced by the GOOD NEWS OF GOD!

 

Personal reflection: Just the headlines are creepy, cringy, and NOT what Christ would want from His clergy!

 

 

 

  TRUMP IS ONLY RULING LIKE DEMOCRATS by Gene Chapman Democrats rule loud, aggressive, determined to win at any cost. Trump was a conservative Democrat longer than he has been a Conservative Republican, as I. Why do we have a nearly $37 trillion debt?  The democrats buy elections spending your tax money.  They are doing it as I write. The Republicans passed a Continuing Resolution, using Biden’s excessive 2025 budget to have enough time for a revised Regular Order 2026 budget, with lower spending.  It passed the House but needs a 60-vote majority of the Senate, which failed. Democrats are demanding over a trillion dollars be added to the Republican budget, or they will shut down government. The liberal media always blames Republicans for government shutdowns, but it won’t fly for this one. The democrats keep repeating that both sides have killers, as if it’s equal. That is total hogwash! You’ll have to go back a long way to find a bonified Conservative killer, who bl...

  Personal reflection: Why in the community center, but not in a Catholic Church?

  According to the U.S. Department of State website: "In Gaza and the wider Middle East, the predominant religion is Islam.  An estimated 99% of the population in the Gaza Strip is Sunni Muslim  with small Shia and Ahmadi Muslim communities. " "Islam : Making up 94% of the population of the Middle East-North Africa region, Islam is the most widespread religion." Personal reflection: Why is the Catholic Church sending money to Muslims in the Middle East?

  Personal reflection: Coexist is woke, weird, and wicked terminology! As Catholics, we are not called to coexist with sin, but to convert people to virtue; we are not called to coexist with evil, but to convert people to holiness. 

  Personal reflection:   There’s nothing as beautiful as the original image miraculously formed on the tilma of San Juan Diego! Why use a deplorable, web-like, line drawing that eviscerates evangelization and the eternal, and replaces the Sacred Image with something that is irreverent and impious. Our Lady of Guadalupe, inspire us to utilize the Holy, Heavenly Image God gave us at Tepeyac Hill; and not distorted, disfigured images.

 

 

  Republicans Politically Correct? by Gene Chapman Republicans have never been politically correct!  They are unfortunately, mostly white, suspected rich, and heartless, uncaring slobs, who celebrated when the poor starve, or died for lack of proper medical care. Then they shot Charlie Kirk, to be a hero for killing hatred. But Charlie Kirk never hated anyone, full of Christian love, testifying to the world at every opportunity. He changed college young people, purposely putting haters first in line to question him with vicious, vitriol, then disarming their hatred with quiet loving, caring advice, using indisputable facts. Charlie was gifted, knowing that the University students were only victims of American politically correct Universities Secular anti-Christian propaganda, with Harvard and Columbia at the top of the list. I loved Charlie’s University sessions, as he quietly, took most ridiculous tricky questions, answered them with quiet dignity. He never failed to inform t...

  1)  The Prophecy of Simeon 2)  The Flight into Egypt 3)  The Loss of the Child Jesus in the Temple 4)  Mary Meets Jesus on the Way to Calvary 5)  Jesus Dies on the Cross 6)  The Piercing of Jesus’ Side 7)  Jesus is Placed in the Tomb Our Lord promised four principal graces to those devoted to Her Sorrows: 1) That those who before death invoke the divine Mother in the name of Her Sorrows will obtain true repentance of all their sins; 2) That He will protect all who have this devotion in their tribulations, and will protect them especially at the hour of death; 3) That He will impress on their minds the remembrance of His Passion; 4) That He will place such devout servants in Mother Mary’s hands to do with them as She wishes and to obtain for them all the graces She desires. In addition to these four graces there are also seven promises attached to the practice of daily praying seven Hail Marys while meditat...
