And the proper response is: "And the rest o' the day to yerself."
Would St. Patrick march in this parade? Somehow I doubt it. Keep in mind that gay groups can march under their own banners, but pro-life groups may not. What used to be a Catholic public witness, now witnesses to the decline of the Catholic faith among our spiritual leaders. Why does this remind me of the Israelites in the desert worshiping the golden calf? The detour sign above is a metaphor for what's happening to the faith in the synodal church. That detour will take you straight to hell on the high road of dalliance.

St. Patrick, pray for us and drive the snakes out of our poor country and especially out of our Church.
As Republican U.S. Senator from California Hiram Johnson said in 1917, “The first casualty, when war comes, is truth.”

” Iran had been warning for months – since the last US/Israeli surprise attack in June – that if they were attacked again, they would not hold back on US bases in the region and that they would close the Straits of Hormuz. Trump and Netanyahu attacked anyway, and Iran has done what it said it would do.”
…..excerpt from various recent writings of Chuck Baldwin (Baptist pastor), his courage is to be applauded. May Our Lord grant him a grace to desire conversion to the Catholic Faith!
“And Trump gets up and says that he hates his enemies. And the crowd: They cheer. They cheer it on. This is why we say that white evangelical Christianity in America is morally and theologically bankrupt. They do not worship a Jesus that you find in the red letters. They worship a Jesus of empire. They don’t believe in liberating the poor and the oppressed. They believe in a gospel for the rich and the powerful.”

US military commanders: 'Victory in Iran guarantees the return of Jesus'
“Now, the real fanaticism of Scofield’s false doctrines of premillennial dispensationalism, aka Christian Zionism, has come to the surface. To think that a group of human beings or a single U.S. president or a military force could actually determine the timetable in Heaven of Christ’s return is not only the most idiotic thinking imaginable; it is the most arrogant.”
This war was never about Iran’s nuclear program. Our own intelligence agencies—including the testimony (under oath) of National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard—have repeatedly reported for over 20 years that Iran had no nuclear weapons and had no plans on building them. Former Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei held deep religious convictions that nuclear weapons violated the Shia faith, and, therefore, he blocked their development in Iran. Looking back, that was doubtless a huge mistake on his part.
