A Hundred Million Miracles - just go to Medjugorje and get one
We've all had experiences of non-Catholics telling us what Catholics believe. This happened to me (again) a few nights ago when an old friend from back in our race horse days called to ask what I thought of the reversal of Roe vs Wade.
She's a cradle Episcopalian and goes to an Episcopal church that just got a new pastor. My friend said, "...and he's got a husband!" I said, "Oh. So he's a sodomite." She never skipped a beat, saying, "Yes, but I'll never - never, mind you - leave my church." In the next breath she suggested I "go get a miracle from the apparition".
For the benefit of the ignorant in the raging mobs, let me underline what happened last Friday. Dobbs overturned Roe, but did not ban abortion. It is still legal except in those states that had trigger laws linked to the end of Roe. And even in those states, many allow abortion in certain circumstances. Our work to end the murder of babies is just beginning.
"Fashion is a political act" says the apparently gynephobic nonbinary man, Guillermo Jester, who wears dresses because, as he says, "I can have a beard. I can wear a dress. I can have hair on my chest and I can use makeup" when "sharing anecdotes about masculinity, stigmas, and sequins."
Gynophobia is an abnormal fear of women while misogyny is hatred of women. Conversely, androphobia is fear of men, while misandry is hatred of men. Homosexuality is rooted in gynophobia; lesbianism is rooted in androphobia. My guess then is that drag queens are fueled by misogyny while hardened feminists get their guidance from misandry.
All this has been discussed simply for ages in hundreds of thousands of books, research papers, religious doctrines, university courses, therapy sessions, and finally that ever authoritative therefore highly recommended area of expertise - the airline travel magazine.
One of the most effective ways to save babies is to limit abortion access. The fewer abortion businesses, the fewer dead bodies. Life Dynamics spread that message decades ago. Mark Crutcher, author of Lime 5, is an authority on the exploitation of women by abortion. How many know about the reality of what goes on in many of these filthy places and the abortionists who run them. If you read Lime 5, you'll be shocked!
Abortion is a disaster for women! Now, that access is limited, we have to continue getting that message out. Women need to know they have alternatives. Most women will not turn to illegal abortion if it's not easily available, but will seek help. Which means we need to beef up support for pregnancy help centers.
See The Eponymous Flower's Post from Friday. And thank God that Donald Trump was the one naming the three supreme court justices who voted with the majority. Imagine if Hillary Clinton had named those judges!
Roe v. Wade: overturned on the feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. May graces of conversion pour out on all those filled with hate and rage. May they fall into the arms of Jesus.
Roe v. Wade fell today heralding a new stage in the battle against abortion. The field of battle returns to the states where once again we will have slave states where the babies are the property of their mothers and free states where the baby will be recognized as an independent person with rights.
Hat tip to Ann Barnhardt. I saw this video first on her website. A friend and I have been discussing this for several years. I keep looking up to see if the meteor is coming. The Lord will not tolerate forever the abominations of abortion and gender ideology, which murder and pervert our children. The blood of the little ones ripped from the womb cries out to heaven for vengeance. The guardian angels of the little ones corrupted by our satanic culture call to God for justice. Pray and fast that men will turn back to God before Armageddon.
In Areomexico's travel/vacation magazine, AIRE, under the title of "In Taste They Break Genders: Mexican design for a reconceived society where everyone can dress freely" there is this paragraph of sheer wickedness:
The world is non-binary (only in a reconceived society, but not in reality). Seduced by a dichotomous system, we're the ones who (hating God) forget that (want you to erroneously believe that) there are, at least, 50 shades of grey between black and white (so "50 ways to leave your lover" once you're finished having gratuitous sex with them). As (reconceived)social constructs, man and woman are not necessarily at odds or mutually exclusive. Genders are complimentary, with infinite ways of being expressed. It's time to deconstruct (destroy) concepts that are coming up short. Blue is not just for boys (Of course not. The Blessed Mother wears blue.) and dresses are not always for girls. But clothing is just clothing. If the coat, or skirt, (or Speedo) fits, then wear it. Based on their realities and lived experiences, Barbara Sanchez-Kane, Guillermo Jester, and Juan Oyervides use fashion design to clothe a pluralist, diverse (deeply sick) society." - AIRE magazine, June 2022 pride issue, page 067
The world has gone nuts but we don't have to go nuts along with it! One of my strategies is to keep doing what I've always done. Get up, dress, and go to Mass every day. My husband and I kept going to our church at Mass time even during the lockdown. We prayed the Mass in Magnificat and made a spiritual Communion. Then we went home, had breakfast, and did our daily chores. We are fortunate to live on three acres and when you have that much property there is always a chore calling your name. Since we are beekeepers, from March to October there is plenty of bee inspecting to do as well as honey harvesting. We were never bored and since we don't go out that much except for groceries and drug store runs and to the Post Office, we were not much impacted by the draconian treatment so many suffered. What were people in apartments supposed to do when they were ordered to stay indoors and go into a kind of unnatural hibernation? It was evil! Plain and simple.
The elephant in the doctor's waiting room is the medical disaster from the COVID jab. The coverup continues! (image from royalty free photos website)
Most people are familiar with SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). My brother and a close friend both lost infants to this terrible condition where parents find their little one dead in the crib for no apparent reason. I remember clearly the shock and heartbreak. I never even met my brother's little boy.
You come home from a short day trip and are horrified to see your front door wide open. With trepidation you go into the house and step into chaos; items scattered everywhere. Book shelves swept clear, your good china smashed. The box full of sterling silver from your grandmother is gone. Your computer and tablet have been taken along with your jewelry box with the few valuable items you own. Everywhere you look you see devastation.
Things seem to be getting crazier by the moment. Fauci has COVID after how many boosters? His response? Make more vaccines (actually experimental gene therapies). We need to give more billions to Big Pharma! Now when I was a kid we got vaccines to keep from getting the illness. With COVID we made a vaccine that doesn't keep you from getting sick. In fact, friends of mine have a daughter and her husband who got the vaccine (and the booster as well I think). What happened? They both got serious cases of COVID and now have long COVID and are seeing a specialist. So, tell me, how did getting the jab benefit them? You know what Fauci would say. If they didn't get the jab they probably would have died. Why does anybody still believe that quack?

If you thought the Fathers of the Council put together the Novus Ordo (NO) and approved it at Vatican II, you have lots of company. Only one problem --- they didn't. It was the product of a council (Consilium) headed by Cardinal Giacomo Lercaro, but Annibale Bugnini, the secretary of the commision, played a major role.
What times we live in, eh? Under this godless, immoral administration we've returned to the wild, wild West where our "leaders" advocate violence against those with whom they disagree. Thanks, Chuck Schumer for threatening the lives of Supreme Court Justices and rallying your mobs with words that motivate them to plan assassinations.
With 45 million views and 36,000 comments, this video, sent a few days ago to LesFemmes, was made in 2016 after the Russian airline Metrojet Flight 9268 was destroyed midflight over the Sinai Peninsula. The person who sent the video said, I really liked this message of life; the goodness of life for its own sake. So much despair in the West. So good to recall a higher aspiration.
What struck me were the current comments below the video, written by Russian people in the midst of war not only for the past 100 days, but also for the past 8 years with Ukrainian Nazis. The far right nationalist Nazis call Russians "orcs". An "orc" is an evil entity so must be killed and the maniacal Ukrainian Nazis, ignoring the Minsk accords, had been doing just that in the Donbas for the past 8 years.
3 months ago: Today is March 4, and I also want to live! I am from Ukraine, but my relatives are in Russia. I want peace, friendship, happiness for everyone. This is not a war of people - it is politics and money for which we are being killed, and those who fire these shells are also victims of the war. Pray for everyone and for the world. I love all the people on the planet!

Editor's note: Our godson, who is also a nephew, attended a town meeting in Holly Springs, N.C. on Tuesday, June 8th, to speak against the town adopting a Pride Month proclamation. I applaud him for his commitment to the truth. We see our children and grandchildren indoctrinated daily with immoral and false teachings magnified by proclaiming "pride month." Accompanying it are all kinds of celebration events that promote a false image of sexuality and encourage children to experiment with deviance.
We celebrate our country's founding on the 4th of July, a testimonial to America's commitment to freedom. What does Pride Month celebrate? Sodomy and lies about man's very nature. People can celebrate their sin privately, but forcing it on the rest of us is wrong. It reflects bigotry and tyranny. However, evil is never content with tolerance; it demands approval. There is absolutely no tolerance for those who embrace God's laws and holy will. Evil demands the pinch of incense. I'm happy to say that there was no Pride Month proclamation in Holly Springs!
The article below is circulating on the internet and is well worth reading. Perhaps it's true and was actually written by "Miss Schaal." On the other hand, it reads like something out of Chicken Soup for the Soul, so perhaps it's apocryphal. At any rate, it's a real lesson in how dictators take over a country. We are well on the way to that terrifying reality in the U.S. under this wicked administration.
The Collective West's sanctions imposed on Russia were supposed to "stick it to Putin". Instead, the sanctions stuck it back to the Collective West. Boneheaded liberals, with the Biden Reich House and Ursula von der Crazy leading the sanctions charge, could think of no more masterful plan than punishing themselves - which means all of us. Meanwhile, Russia's supermarkets are the picture of abundance. Are you ready to play the sanctions supermarket game? Have fun!
Editor's Note: My brother-in-law nailed the "real problem" in today's society in his letter to the editor printed in the Wheeling News Register. Guns don't make people kill. Breakdown of moral norms and rewarding violence does. How many were charged during the BLM/ANTIFA riots? There were no consequences for criminal acts. In fact, those who looted, assaulted police, and torched buildings made out like the bandits they were carting off TVs and other electronic devices and entire shopping carts of loot.
As a Catholic mom rearing our five children, I always tried to spiritualize our daily life: morning prayer, prayers at meals, discussion of the meaning of holidays (holy days), planning a weekly family home night with prayer, activities, and a special treat. I tried to help my family look at everything we did through the eyes of faith. I continue that practice with our grandkids. I love the saying attributed to St. John Bosco: Love God and have as much as you can!
On this Pentecost Sunday, the birthday of the Church, let's consider a question on the mind of many faithful Catholics these days: Can a pope be a heretic? If he does fall into heresy, does he automatically lose the Chair of Peter. And a further question: Who has the authority to make a declaration of heresy and judge that the visually reigning pope is, in fact, no longer pope?

TALLAHASSEE (FLV) – Gov. Ron DeSantis encouraged fathers to participate in their families lives in an interview with First class Fatherhood discussing the fatherhood crisis in the United States.
“If you had every kid in America had a loving father in the home, we would have far, far fewer problems that we would have to deal with as a society,” DeSantis said.
The Governor urged fathers to be present in their kids’ lives. DeSantis shared the struggle he faced spending time with his family while serving as a member in congress when his daughter was born in Florida.
“I’m sitting in my office in D.C. wondering ‘why the hell am I up here?’ I really want to be back down,” he explained.
DeSantis said the Governor’s role is more “family friendly” and allows him to see his kids for dinner or in the mornings.
“If I’m going to do public service, I wanted to make sure I could do it in a way that was more family friendly,” he said.
The Governor signed legislation to tackle the fatherlessness crisis in Florida. Last month he signed legislation to support fathers and children by connecting men with career services and boys with mentorship.
DeSantis said in April that kids without a father being more likely to drop out of school and get in trouble with the law.
“I do think there are a lot of problems, but if you could just snap your finger and do one thing, and you did this where the fathers were in the home, you would not even need to worry about a lot of these other problems.” DeSantis said.
Yum! Dinner of crispy roach larvae. This isn't a joke. It's real and in our future, compliments of the Collective West's hysterical anti-human Green New Deal/Climate Change/WEF matrix.
Just now going to my fake Twitter account that I never use anymore there was a notice to get the new Diablo Immortal app. I had to Yandex it (I don't "Google" things anymore. I "Yandex" them) to find out what Diablo Immortal even is. With a warning of "gore and violence" I figure the "demons" to be destroyed in the game are white conservative Americans. Meanwhile the Biden Reich House and the Collective West support far-right white nationalist Nazis in the Ukraine. My immediate thought was, "Is playing this gamewhat the narcissistic Collective West blue-pilled people living in the Matrix currently do?"

As we prepare for the celebration of the Solemnity of Pentecost this year, I am disturbed by the fact that this celebration, if lacking a serious commitment to integration into Christ, will be merely emotional, and not transformative.
We're living in the Wild West. Can you protect yourself against the gunslingers?
My colleague, Janet, at Restore DC-Catholicism has an excellent post asking sensible questions about the Uvalde massacre a few days ago. Here's a bit from her excellent post:
We are approaching an election cycle. Certain Democrats would very much appreciate a crisis like this to take the public's eyes away from the utter mess that Biden et al are making of the country. Saul Alinsky, in his book "Rules for Radicals", said "never let a crisis go to waste". The Democrats are excellent students of Alinsky, and they would chomp at the bit to exploit such a crisis like Uvalde, perhaps even to the point of contriving one.
