“Water, soil, and oxygen should not be infinitely accessible. They are assets that should be included in global economic balance sheets.” This is not satire. The World Economic Forum wants to monetise breathing.
Queen of Heaven, most blessed among women, who art crowned with the stars and clothed with the sun, look with favor, we pray, on these thy children who seek to glorify thy Divine Son. Graciously send thy defender, Michael, to protect all involved in this holy project from the attacks of Satan, and to preserve them from every spiritual and physical harm.
Fri Oct 17, 2025 - 8:00 pm EDTFri Oct 17, 2025 - 8:25 pm EDT (LifeSiteNews) — On this week’s episode of Faith and Reason, John-Henry Westen, Father Charles Murr, and Frank Wright discussed the prayer the cast and crew of “The Resurrection of the Christ” are reciting for protection while filming that Mel Gibson shared exclusively with LifeSiteNews. The panel also discussed Jim Caviezel being recast for the highly anticipated film, Pope Leo getting caught on a hot mic telling American bishops to raise their voices about immigration, Leo appointing Cardinal Blase Cupich to the Pontifical Commission of the Vatican City State, and more. Westen read a prayer Mel Gibson has shared with LifeSiteNews, which the cast, directors, producers, and entire crew of “The Resurrection of the Christ,” the much-anticipated follow-up to his 2004 film “The Passion of the Christ,” are reciting as they begin filming in Rome. The prayer invokes the protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Michael the …
On 2 April, the La Salle ARLEP Catholic school in Benicarló, eastern Spain, hosted an annual Jehovah’s Witnesses ceremony. This event is known as the 'Commemoration of the Death of Christ'. According to InfoVaticana.com, similar cult events have been held at the same venue in the past. Jehovah's Witnesses do not celebrate Easter or the resurrection of Jesus, who they believe to be God's first creation, not God himself. He was raised as a spirit being, not in his body. Members of the sect annually commemorate only his death. Picture: InfoVaticana.com, #newsRpiagivrfe
White privilege doesn't exist coming from a white privileged person! LOL! Oh and I guess the fact that slavery and white privilege, which are in the blood of the US, suddenly goes away with affirmative action.
Al Jazeera confirms the Trump administration's near total fuel blockade on Cuba is causing infant mortality to surge. Doctors are literally operating blind in the dark as life saving machines shut off. This is a deliberate crime against humanity.
Thank GOD at least Russia has sent them oil and gas. Over 100,000 tones first ship alone. Trump backed down from blocking Russia, but he backed off. Putin probably gave him a good speech on morals and GOD! Something trump doesn't know nor understand at all.
Horrific Easter Attack: Muslim Driver Rams into Christian Procession in Gujranwala Village, Critically Injuring 60+ and Killing Several On Easter morning in the village of Klasske, Gujranwala while Christians were taking part in a Easter procession, a Muslim driver in a high-speed car plowed straight into the crowd, critically injuring more than 60 people. Multiple Christians have been killed in this horrific attack on a HOLY day.
Dr. Simon Goddek @goddek MEANWHILE IN GERMANY: Former FDP MP and Israel lobbyist Hartmut Ebbing was caught with child sexual abuse videos. He asked the court for a secret trial to protect the German-Israeli Society (DIG), where he was treasurer. The court agreed. He got a suspended sentence. Later convicted of abusing a 7-year-old. Only then did he resign, after nearly a year managing DIG funds, including German taxpayer money. Both FDP and DIG claimed they “knew nothing.”
Pope Leo XIV has issued an Easter message to residents of Debel, a predominantly Christian village in southern Lebanon, currently besieged by ongoing Israeli bombardments and military restrictions. The message was delivered through Cardinal Pietro Parolin. Leo XIV expressed “paternal closeness and tenderness” to the people of Debel and extended compassion to all civilians suffering amid the conflict in South Lebanon. The message encouraged residents to find spiritual strength in the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus, despite the “sorrow, anguish, and mourning” brought on by the violence and isolation facing the village. The Pope also urged the community not to lose hope, assuring them that their prayers and suffering are not forgotten. Invoking the protection of Our Lady of Lebanon, he concluded by offering his Apostolic Blessing to the people of Debel and their families. #newsHyygasezja
Sulaiman Ahmed @ShaykhSulaiman BREAKING: Iran's FM Araghchi on the Strait of Hormuz: It is not in international waters. It is the internal waters of Iran and Oman. The strait is currently open and is closed only to those who are at war with Iran. For many of them, especially those from friendly countries, we have put arrangements in place so they can pass through the strait safely. Some countries have passed through the strait after reaching an agreement with Iran. The Strait of Hormuz can be a waterway of peace, enabling the calm passage of ships from all countries. x.com/ShaykhSulaiman/status/2039345578287550503
Girls are hitting puberty earlier than ever before — and the numbers are shocking. In the late 1800s, the average age was around 16–17. By the early 1900s it had dropped to 12.5–13. Today it’s down to about 11, with some Black and Hispanic girls showing signs as early as 8, 9, or even 6–7 years old — the earliest recorded in history. Patrick Bet-David asked FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary why this is happening. Makary pointed to the modern environment: constant exposure to substances and chemicals with estrogen-like binding properties (found even in river water) that partially activate estrogen receptors. He called it a “huge issue” and an existential threat to human development, noting the age has been dropping by about a week and a half every year for the last 30 years. He also mentioned that in Europe, where some of these exposures may be lower, puberty still starts later (14–15 in some cases), and that American medicine has largely treated this as a minor footnote rather than …badan
“Sudden And Unexpected” @toobaffled “I was the very first person in Canada to obtain the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine contract between Pfizer and the Canadian government, after a years-long battle through a freedom of information request. After reading the contract, what really stood out to me was this clause, which specifically said: “Purchaser further acknowledges that the long-term effects and efficacy of the vaccine are not currently known and that there may be adverse effects of the vaccine that are not currently known. Further, to the extent applicable, Purchaser acknowledges that the Product shall not be serialized.” So, of course, after reading that, it was clear the Canadian government was signing Canadians up to put an experimental, unproven vaccine into their bodies, while telling everyone it was safe and effective, even though they literally had no idea. About a year later, I submitted another freedom of information request to the Canadian government asking for: “Any and all …badan
Solemn Procession of the Most Blessed Sacrament at the conclusion of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass of the Lord’s Supper from the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Jerusalem, celebrated this morning by His Beatitude Pierbattista Cardinal Pizzaballa, Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem.
I'm sure it wasn't the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. It was a communal meal worship service modeled after the one invented by Cranmer for the English during the Protestant Reformation. Luther hated any liturgy that smacked of sacrifice. We had to do away with sacrifice.
From Castel Gandolfo, Leo XIV issued a call for peace talking to journalists. The continuing escalation is not resolving anything: “It is only provoking more hatred throughout the world.” Leo XIV urged consideration for civilians, saying: “I would like to invite everyone to think of the many innocent children, the elderly.” Commenting on warnings of large-scale destruction, he said: “This is truly not acceptable. Here there are certainly questions of international law, but even more than this a question of morality for the good of people.” Regarding military actions, Leo XIV added that attacks on civilian infrastructure are “a sign of the hatred and division that we are capable of.” #newsUuspftwcym
To assess the inner man Trump brokered peace between several warring nations. He reached out to Kim Jong II in his first administration and arrived at a truce. He honored Our Lady on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception with a beautiful statement, more so than did our national Bishop's conference. He always keeps everyone guessing, and I for one like it that way. It keeps the pressure on those who would do us harm.
For sure the American president is speaking like a mad mullah. Death to Iran as opposed to death to America. It's a form of dialogue that is familiar to the counterpart I expect. As to how this will shake out, it's hard to tell. Politics at that level is very convoluted. The weight of it is shuddering to contemplate. Iran is duty bound to follow just war theory too in relation to its own population as a matter of natural law.
@Instaurare Omnia in Christo If of interest, Todd Pitner is from Florida, is a Catholic and shares about his experiences of combating the evil stuff they have allegedly been spraying over Florida skies with some special technology which they show here??
