Join the Rebellion...

...Let's take back our Church! Need a new year's resolution? Pray for the Church, but don't stop there. Fight! Confront the evil directly like Andrew Tschugguel did when he threw Pachamama in the Tiber.

Can You Hear What I Hear?

There’s the age old question:  If a tree falls in the forest and there’s no one there to hear it, does it make a sound?

My question is: Does nature require that we are a witness to carry out what it was designed to do?  The answer is absolutely not.

Baltimore Catechism,
Lesson 5: 48-49, p 31

48. What is man?

Man is a creature composed of body and soul, and made in the image and likeness of God. 

49. Is this likeness to God in the body or in the soul?

This likeness to God is chiefly in the soul [spirit-mind-will]. The likeness to the Blessed Trinity is found chiefly in man's soul, but there is a resemblance in the body too - not however in the body of one man alone, but in man and woman united in marriage and the child which is the normal fruit of the marriage.

Comments: 

Therefore, since only Man-Woman-Child (in marriage) is the image and likeness of God in man's body, homosexuality - man/man or woman/woman - is a mortal sin and will never be recognized by God as being 1) a marriage, 2) a family, 3) good or 4) holy

I don't care what Bergoglio says.

THE FAMILY is a reflection of the image and likeness of God as the earthly trinity. 

THE HOLY FAMILY is the epitome of the earthly trinity.

In this painting we see the DOUBLE TRINITY. The first Trinity is GOD - God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit.

The second Trinity is the FAMILY - man/woman/child. Here the Family is represented by its epitome - The Holy Family - Jesus, Mary and Joseph.

Therefore, same-sex "marriage" is NOT the image and likeness of God. It is the image and likeness of the devil therefore a mortal sin. 

Pope's Song for 2020: Give Me that New Age Religion!

Ready to sing "Give me that new age religion!"

Give me that Old Time  New Age Religion

Did you hear about the Christmas concert at the Vatican where they once again honored Pachamama? Really -- they even urged the folks in the audience to cross their arms over their hearts so they could feeeeeel the heartbeat of Mother Earth.

You can't make this stuff up!

Do you think they had special hymns for Pachamama? She definitely needs a new age religion to update her pagan religion.

As Janet Baker at Restore D.C. Catholicism wrote, proselytizing for paganism is A-okay in Rome. It's just those pesky rigid Catholics who cling to the faith of our Fathers who may not proselytize. Shamans and witch doctors? They get the green light.

So....here's the old version of the song with the new Vatican lyrics beneath. Let's all learn to sing it to purge our rigid adherence to the truth as taught by Jesus Christ and get with the modern world. To limber up and shake off our rigidity we should first do the Hokey-Pokey.

Did You Hear about the "Great Christmas Blizzard?" Chicken Little Attributes it to Global Warming!

The "Great Blizzard of 1888"
ground traffic to a standstill in NYC.

Global warming really is alarming. All these extreme weather events that we've never seen before!

Yeah, right!

The unexpected blizzard of the headline happened after Christmas. It was an "extratropical cyclone blizzard winter story" and piled on a record snowfall in the northeast. New York City saw over 26 inches of snow in fewer than 24 hours when the white stuff fell at a rate of three inches an hour.  Seventy-seven people died, public transportation ground to a stop. Buses and cars were abandoned in the streets making them nearly impassable for emergency vehicles. Telephone and electric service was spotty due to downed power and phone lines.

On the Feast of St. Stephen, Be Brave! Make a Decision to be a Warrior against the Culture of Death.

But be prepared for the persecution! You may lose your job; you probably won't lose your life. Be a man like the seven sons in Maccabees and a woman like their courageous mother. Let us fight for the faith and for the culture, walking in the footsteps of St. Stephen!

Fr. Tom Collins sent me this email the other day:

The video link below dramatically shows how courageously confronting the secularist “social justice” agenda can be quite effective. Sadly, this agenda still guides many powerful officials in the Vatican and the USCCB, as they become incrementally more adept at adapting to and adopting the secularist Culture of Desecration of Death.

Sunday Meditation: Blogging Takes a Back Seat to Family!

Busy time of the year, eh? Did you miss our posts the past few days? Maybe you were too busy to notice. I get it!

My husband and I just returned from four days visiting one of our children in Pittsburgh so we could go to the Kreitzer annual Christmas party in Wheeling, Larry's hometown. Since his parents died almost 20 years ago, we don't get back to Wheeling nearly as much as we used to. Parents are the magnets that pull you all together. Now that we are the patriarchal generation, getting together with other extended family just doesn't happen as much as it used to, sad to say.

What a blessing it was to see most of Larry's eight siblings, their spouses, the nieces and nephews, the grand nieces and nephews....whew! I had to have a cheat sheet to keep all the names straight. The children have changed so much since our last visit.
