Pandemic Panic? Take a deep breath and trust in God.
Editor's note: Below is the lead article from the Les Femmes newsletter's Spring Issue in 2020. It remains true as Joe Biden and Dr. Fauci continue to call for stupid measures like wearing masks outside and while exercising. It's like these snake oil salesmen want people to be sick and die. They have suppressed the best early treatments and their media accomplices have deplatformed board certified physicians who only want to help their patients. As many as 25% of Covid deaths were absolutely unnecessary. And many of those who survive the illness will face on-going medical problems post Covid because of the medical malpractice and negligence of those who suppressed the truth to promote the "vaccine" regimen. The Epoch Times has a great article on early treatment of Covid. The doctor interviewed was dumped by Twitter for telling people what every doctor knows. "that treating a viral illness within the first few days of symptoms can prevent it from establishing an infection." It's time to stop the panic and boost your immune system.

A Movie Worth Watching Over and Over
Larry and I started watching House of Cards last week but after one episode I decided I'm sick of filling my head with stories of intrigue, betrayal, and immorality. We watched the British version a few years ago and the American appeared to be following it closely. When I thought of all the murder and mayhem, it made my heart sink. Who needs it?
So from now on my focus for crash time will be inspiring movies of the saints. (I think I had a St. Ignatius of Loyola experience -- medieval romances left him empty, lives of the saints filled him with admiration and zeal..) One of my favorite movies in the genre of holy men and women is The Reluctant Saint about St. Joseph of Cupertino. We've probably watched that half a dozen times at least. Maximilian Schell as Joseph is sweet and dear and his whole body professes simplicity and humility. A Man for All Seasons about St. Thomas More is another favorite and Paul Scofield is magnificent. I saw him play the same role on stage years ago and he was equally compelling. The courtroom scene gives me goosebumps every time I see it.
But last night we added another work to the repertoire of fantastic films, Pius XII, Under the Roman Sun.
The film would make a good companion piece to The Scarlet and the Black since both films cover the same period, the occupation of Rome during World War II and the Vatican's involvement in rescuing Jews and others targeted by the Nazis.
