Why Do Bishops Cover Up Sexual Abuse?

https://europeanconservative.com/articles/essay/why-do-bishops-cover-up-sexual-abuse/

... The answer, in fact, is a simple one. In any institution the loyalty and obedience of subordinates is maintained by some kind of reward given by superiors. ... If BBC executives or Catholic bishops want to shore up their position within their organisation, protecting abusers will ensure that at least an important section of their subordinates are loyal and uncomplaining. Once a culture of abuse is established, more and more people who can be motivated in this way will be drawn into the institution, while the people not wanting to play along will be marginalised, rendered powerless, and leave.

Superiors tolerate and facilitate abuse because it increases their power within the institution. It does not matter what form the abuse takes: emotional, sexual, spiritual, or even financial. Within the institutional Catholic Church, the toleration of all these kinds of abuse can be found. ...

The abuser knows his bishop can denounce him to the authorities any time. That does tend to make the abuser rather compliant with the bishop's wishes!

At root, it's a power trip.

Chinese Communist Party Suffocates Christians; The West Should Take Heed.

https://europeanconservative.com/articles/commentary/chinese-communist-party-suffocates-christians-the-west-should-take-heed/

It's a long-ish article but well worth the reading. Biden, Trudeau, and all the other WEF-controlled countries want this for their own people:

...Fu says that the Chinese Communist Party prescribes that those under 18 years old, students, Communist Party members, communist Youth League members, and civil servants are not allowed to enter any church building. This prohibition includes state-controlled churches as well. China has entered the period of the worst persecution against Christians in the 40 years since the cultural revolution, Fu concludes. ...

... China has managed to deploy artificial intelligence and facial recognition to track Christians. The Communist Party deploys facial recognition cameras in churches. If they refuse, they are shut down. ...

... The Chinese Communist Party’s goal is to make sure churches don’t fall out of line with official viewpoints. In the case of official churches, this means they are encouraged to praise and pledge allegiance to the Communist Party and its ideology. ...

The CCP is also re-writing the bible to make it conform better to CCP doctrine.

This is a foreshadowing of what the Left wants for the whole world: all loyalty must be directed to the State; no loyalty may be shown to anything outside the State.

This has been the plan of the Left for a long time, and they have been very successful in planting the seeds fo it in the West. They hate truth, so they push relativism--and anyone saying there actually is such a thing as objective truth is labelled as backwards or worse. They hate beauty and impose ugliness--hence tatoos and piercings and hideously ugly architecture and fashions. They hate goodness, so they replace individual charity with tax-funded "programs"--they have taken over the schools, the hospitals, childrens' clubs, and all other aspects of civil society in which ordinary people could exercise "love of neighbour" on a voluntary basis.

Aristotle and the ancient philosophers called Truth, Beauty, and Goodness "the trancendentals"; they are actually aspects of God. The Left knows this, and hence they've been crushing the trancendentals for decades.

Chinese Military Studying ‘Cognitive Attacks’ Against US Population | The CCP hopes to encourage ‘a psychological or cognitive decision to surrender,’ says Nathan Beauchamp-Mustafaga of RAND Corp.

https://www.theepochtimes.com/china/chinese-military-studying-cognitive-attacks-against-us-population-5579438

...As part of this effort, Mr. Beauchamp-Mustafaga said the PLA was researching how to reinforce “information cocoons,” or echo chambers, to deliberately polarize and divide American society to detract from “mainstream [Western] values” and isolate individuals psychologically.

Good to know.

The internet can be a very isolating place. It's not real life. Talking to real live human beings is tremendously valuable; people in stores, at the bus stop, etc.

"They want you divided". Just like with the BLM problem a couple of years ago, whenever this happens, concentrate on our shared human nature and don't let them make you hate.

#Another Outlandish Overreach by the CDC https://www.theepochtimes.com/opinion/another-outlandish-overreach-by-the-cdc-5619202?ea_src=au-frontpage&ea_med=opinion-6 via https://dissectleft.blogspot.com/2024/04/doctors-force-fda-to-remove-false.html

...As it turns out, the CDC had quite a large role in guiding election processes. ... The theory was that people gathering in a polling place would be a super-spreader event. What science did they cite to demonstrate this? None at all. So far as I know, and I’ve looked far and wide, there is not a single study anywhere that purports to show some relationship between disease spread and in-person voting. The CDC just made that up. ...

...There is simply no way that the CDC could not have known about the uncertainties and vagaries created by absentee ballots. They are banned by half the countries in the world for that reason. ...

...The crucial point here is that the CDC massively overstepped the bounds of its mandate by intervening in the processes by which Americans select its leaders, strongly pushing a method that was a known source of fraud. Nor has the CDC ever been held to account for this, not to my knowledge in any case. ...

...Speaking of which, who actually did this and why? Aren’t these interesting questions? Why is no one asking them? Where are the investigations? Where is the outrage?

I had not heard that mail-in ballots were pushed by the CDC. Like the article says, this is tremendous overreach. And like the article says, I've heard no follow ups on that subject.

#Outsquatting the Squatters

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2024/03/outsquatting_the_squatters.html

...Shelton simply staked out his mother’s home and waited for the grifters to leave: Then he proceeded to enter the premises to install security cameras, change the locks, and record the squatters’ personal property piled high in every room. The grifters appeared ready for a long and cozy stay, placing their expectations on the law-abiding landlord getting lost in the nightmare of drawn-out legal filings and costly judicial fees....

... Whereas a landlord cannot enter his or her own premises, Shelton, armed with a new lease, can walk in on the squatters proclaiming his status as the new occupant and becoming the squatters’ worst nightmare. That is exactly what he’s doing for landlords who have heard of the handyman and have engaged his services for days or weeks at the fixed rate of $5,000.00

Shelton is not above eating the squatters’ food, occupying their favorite spot for television watching, or blasting loud music. Can he do that? Apparently, he’s doing it routinely and he has yet to get arrested. After all, he’s a tenant: And just like squatters, he, too, has rights. The advice Shelton gives landlords may not match the instructions offered by high-priced law firms (no other kind), but his tactics have proven effective for a fraction of the cost.

I admire the creativity!

#Canadian Librarian Fired For Arguing That Libraries Should Be Ideologically Neutral

https://hotair.com/david-strom/2024/03/21/canadian-librarian-fired-for-arguing-that-people-should-be-ideologically-neutral-n3785124

...She wrote this piece to be published during "Freedom to Read" week, apparently not understanding that Slavery is Freedom. We really shouldn't be shocked, given that the American Library Association's president is a "proud Marxist" who believes that libraries should be sites for socialist organizing.

At one point, the left was all about freedom, tolerance, and "speaking truth to power". Now that the left ARE the ones in power, it's all about censorship and suppression of opposition. The flip happened during the Obama presidency, IMHO.

Birth Control and Homosexuality: Unintended Consequences

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2017/09/birth_control_and_homosexuality_unintended_consequences.html

... It seems that while doing his graduate work in the early 1960s, he had to do research on lab rats, which were given the synthetic hormones used in the then new birth control pills. The results, he told me, showed that the grandchildren of these lab rats would have high rates of homosexual behaviors. From what he told me, the findings were suppressed. Apparently, the powers that be wanted “the pill” to pass muster. What happened to the second generation of rats that followed was of no consequence to them. ...

... This was told me in the mid '80s. By his reckoning, we should have seen a societal explosion of homosexuality starting around 2000, and subsequently. And, of course, we have seen such an explosion. His prediction came true. ...

Significant for two reasons:

  1. An example of Big Pharma suppressing results it doesn't like; and,
  2. Another possible cause of the explosion of LGBTQXYZ+ stuff going on with the younger generation

Criminal Attacks On American Churches Up 800 Percent In Last Six Years

https://thefederalist.com/2024/03/05/criminal-attacks-on-american-churches-up-800-percent-in-last-six-years/

... “Although the motivations for many of these acts of hostility remain unknown, the effect is unmistakable: religious intimidation,” said FRC Center for Religious Liberty Director Arielle Del Turco in a press release. ...

... A large majority of the incidents in 2023 were vandalism, “such as rocks being thrown through the window,” according to the report. ...

... Since the Dobbs ruling in 2022, the Democrat-controlled FBI has infiltrated churches looking for domestic extremists and prosecuted pro-life demonstrators for public prayer. Church firebombings, however, faced minimal investigation. At the same time, the Beltway press has warned Americans about the alleged threat of “Christian nationalism” associated with the triumphant return of former President Donald Trump. Just last week, MSNBC panelists promoted a new book labeling “white rural voters” existential threats to democracy in part, because “they’re also the most strongly white nationalist and white Christian nationalist.”

Add to that the church burnings in Canada related vaguely to the "mass graves" hoax and the arrests in Britain for praying silently in public.

Satan is panicking. His time is short.

Maranatha!

I firmly maintain that true global travel will turn anyone into a raging conservative. It did me.

https://twitter.com/RenOfMen/status/1764481648304026021

A world traveller on X is commenting on the case of a white couple who were assaulted while visiting India.

He points out uncomfortable truths like:

... Liberal Americans have this view of the rest of the melanated world as one big song of Kumbaya, crying out against the oppression of the white West.

This could not be further from the truth.

Violence, bigotry, and hatred are standard operating practice of the residents of many countries. Members of foreign nations express racism to and about each other that make our “micro aggressions” look like a sneeze. Such people laugh at our naive ignorance of the way the world really is, which is why Westerners are often such easy marks. (Not suggesting this couple.)

America, Aus/NZ and Europe are the safest regions on Earth in part because the Christian West regards each human being as made in the image of God. We are not mere fantasies suffering through the illusion of Samsara, as in Hinduism and Buddhism.

Human rights came from the Christian tradition for this reason.

For all their whining about how they want to be free from the "oppressive" nature of Christianity, Leftists fail to even be aware that the peaceful, stable, caring, and charitable society they long-for is actually a UNIQUE product of the same Christian tradition they hate with a passion.

Ireland at a crossroads: Redefining family, motherhood on the ballot

https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/256991/ireland-at-a-crossroads-redefining-family-motherhood-on-the-ballot

...On International Women’s Day, March 8, voters in the country of more than 5 million people will head to the polls to cast their ballot in twin referendums proposing historic changes to the Constitution of Ireland.

The first referendum pertains to the family and would amend Article 41.1 by introducing “other durable relationships” alongside marriage as the foundation of the family.

The second referendum would delete a wording on women and motherhood in Article 41.2, where the state recognizes “that by her life within the home, woman gives to the state a support without which the common good cannot be achieved.” Therefore, the state shall “endeavor to ensure that mothers shall not be obliged by economic necessity to engage in labor to the neglect of their duties in the home.” ...

It is greatly under-appreciated, even by those that favour "traditional family structure", that stay-at-home Moms are actually net contributors to both the family and society.

Even people who WANT the option for mothers to stay at home see it as a frill, where the a stay-at-home mom is a net drain on a family. Her "selfishness" only causes Dad to have to work that much harder so she can have the "privilege" of staying at home, like it's some sort of luxury for the lazy and immature.

No.

A stay-at-home mother truly does "give to the state a support without which the common good cannot be achieved."

Raising children to have their heads screwed on straight is a HUGE positive contribution to a society. It makes family life at home much more harmonious. But it also ensures that the next generation of doctors, lawyers, store clerks--and stay-at-home moms--are mature, emotionally controlled, responsible, sober citizens. It's good for society as a whole to have stay-at-home moms.

... Writing in the European Conservative, Dualta Roughneen noted: “The implications are unclear; but in a society that increasingly outsources care to institutions — whether children, the elderly, or the infirm — it will remove any constitutional preference for care in the home.” ...

Humans are resilient, and just because your kids went to daycare does not mean automatically that they will grow up to be mass-murderers. No one is arguing that extreme.

But home-raising of children does have an influence, and a very strong one at that. And, as that quote points out, care of the elderly and infirm at the other end of the age spectrum is done with more kindness and compassion by family than by minimum-wage state employees.

It's a whole mindset that is so alien to modern society, that care of the vulnerable is primarily a family responsibility. It's not callous and uncaring to want government out of child-rearing and caring for the elderly and infirm. It's spun that way by Statists, that conservatives/traditionalists are cheap or unkind and just want to throw people out on the street. But that is to an accurate assessment.

Children and the elderly/infirm are BETTER cared for by people who ACTUALLY LOVE them rather than by people who are being paid to perform acts as if they love you. Mom is going to wipe junior's drippy nose with more tenderness than any daycare worker.

The root of it is the idea that the individual, alone, is the atomic building-block of society. But just as substances are built from molecules--groups of atoms--so too society is built of families--groups of individuals. It's a mindset shift that has to happen, and then it all becomes very clear.

El Salvador’s Nayib Bukele: Anti-God, anti-family leftist education ‘must be eradicated’ | The popular, anti-globalist president of El Salvador slammed education contrary to God, nature, and the family as ‘a plan to destroy the future generation’ and affirmed the importance of God in schools.

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/el-salvador-nayib-bukele-anti-god-education/

...The president, who was recently reelected with a whopping 84 percent of the vote, added that he thinks it is “also important to be informed and have a voice and vote in what your children will learn.” ... Bukele affirmed that he believes “it is important to get back to God in the schools” as well as “civility” and a focus on traditional subjects such as math and history. ...

This is great! I haven't been following El Salvador news, but this sounds like things are looking very good there.

...Bukele, who was first elected in 2019 and has become famous for bringing crime rates to record lows in his once gang-ridden country, recently gave a rousing speech at this year’s Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), declaring that globalism is now “dead” in El Salvador. “If you want globalism to die here too, you must be willing to unapologetically fight against everything and everyone that it stands for,” said Bukele.

Indeed, indeed.

Britain's e-bus ticking timebomb: How nearly TWO THOUSAND electric buses worth £800m face urgent recall over fears they could see burst into flames

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13141825/Britains-e-bus-ticking-timebomb-nearly-TWO-THOUSAND-electric-buses-worth-800m-face-urgent-recall-fears-burst-flames.html

... All of the affected vehicles were manufactured between May 3, 2019 and February 6, 2024. They all contain batteries supplied by Chinese firm BYD. ...

They were bought because London Mayor Sadiq Khan announced in 2021 that all new buses in London must be 'zero emission'.

... Such is the level of threat posed by electric bus fires, London Fire Brigade is currently re-writing its operations manual on dealing with such incidents. ...

This "green" stuff is a scam, but it seems specifically a scam tied to the CCP. There are other "zero emission" technologies, like hydrogen fuel cells, that have been around for a few decades. I don't know the current status of them, but they did have some fuel cell powered buses (Ballard Power Systems) in Vancouver in the 1980s. Hydrogen is way, way, safer than spontaneously combusting lithium batteries.

Seems fishy that so much of the "new" electric vehicles magically and mysteriously tied to China when other options exist.

Jordan Peterson: The awe-inspiring conservative counter-offensive against woke nonsense | From Pierre Poilievre to Danielle Smith, Canadian conservatives are finally pushing back against the snakes

https://nationalpost.com/opinion/jordan-peterson-the-awe-inspiring-conservative-counter-offensive-against-woke-nonsense

... Something is brewing in Canada — something of deeper than mere national significance. It’s a veritable sign of the times. Just as our nation was and so unfortunately on the cutting edge of the moralizing woke globalist eco-utopian nonsense promulgated oh-so-charismatically by the beautiful Justin Trudeau, so are we leading the charge of counter-offensive.

To put it succinctly: Canadian conservatives are growing a spine. Or a pair. Pick your metaphor. ...

... First, we see a worldwide phenomena, which is an increasingly conservative stance adopted by young men. This will happen among young women too, although there will be a lag, because young women need young men, and will eventually turn in their direction. ...

... But something more specific and specifically political is also happening in Canada. The conservatives have rediscovered their spines! — and not just the ones that enable them to stand up straight, but the ones that make them spiky and witty and able to spar with some truly devastating confidence and humour.

Acutally, on that second point I would argue differently. Andrew Scheer was known to push back against the media when they were being unreasonable, but the reaction from the public was very different. Back then, it was "the Conservatives are being grumpy again". But now, when Poilievre does it, it's "hurray!". It's not so much that the Conservatives are different, but the public is reacting differently.

Anyway, back to Peterson:

...Conservatives now have something to sell to young people. Responsibility. No one has made that offer in six decades, and the time has come. Enough of the continual rattling regarding rights. All rights come with responsibilities. Why shoulder them? Because there is earned self-regard and opportunity in responsibility. There is the adventure of calling and conscience in responsibility. There is the excitement, meaning and security of marriage, family and community in responsibility. Call the young — particularly the men — to responsibility. That will help them succeed, psychologically and socially. It will restore their competence and their confidence. It will also make them more attractive to young women, which is what they want more desperately than anything else.

He also warns that the Liberals are likely to had the whole hot mess they've created over to the Conservatives and then emit a steady stream of propaganda blaming the Conservatives for the mess. This is not merely likely, it's inevitable. After all, Trudeau still has not stopped blaming Harper.

And this will undoubtedly be the playbook in the USA as well, where the hot mess Trump is going to inherit from Biden will be blamed on the Republicans, not the Democrats who created it.

All in all, as is usual for Peterson, a good read and correct in the main even if I would disagree a bit with a point here and there.

REBUILDING CIVILIZATION: A Prophet Rises From Quebec and YouTube

https://europeanconservative.com/articles/dreher/jonathan-pageau-a-prophet-rises-from-quebec-and-youtube/

... All cultures have categories for those they consider to be on the margins. Today, Western cultures have not only brought the formerly marginalized in from the peripheries, but have also enshrined them as the new normal. Look around you, says Pageau: our culture, both popular and elite, celebrates bizarre sexualities, multiple identities, racial difference, and what you might call the “monsterization” of humanity—that is, the valorization of the weird. We have created a society in which we train ourselves to love that which is “not us” more than we love ourselves.

...

We have been presented, says Pageau, with an image of reality that is false. We have been taught to disdain the things that bind us together in our diversity, and to lean into the things that separate us. ... What will this lead to? An “absolute state” in which the masses live in total fragmentation and isolation, while a disconnected elite controls all. We aren’t necessarily going to arrive at this system, he says, but that is where the logic is leading.

Thankfully, the article does not end with merely describing the problem, but actually points to a solution--one which others have mentioned as well, and which resolates as true:

Under Communist tyranny, the late Catholic intellectual Vaclav Benda recognized that dissidents could not possibly hope to defeat the state. But he also recognized that the state maintained its grip by keeping everyone isolated and afraid of each other. Dr. Benda’s response was to call people out of their homes, and bring them together simply to know each other, and to realize that they weren’t alone. Jonathan Pageau counsels the same thing.

In 2019, Zsofia Romaszewska, a Polish hero of the Solidarity trade union, told me that the most important thing for people to do today is to leave their isolation and come together in person, around common goals. It doesn’t have to be political; it can be around something as simple as playing sports. The point, she said, is to form human bonds, face to face, as opposed to virtual connections online. Pageau emphasizes this point too.

We've got a bit of that going here. u/Slechta5614 has a "prayer garden" initiative https://discord.com/invite/CeCma435

There are other communities to join like https://amrron.com/ for the ham radio enthusiasts and https://corac.co/ for prepper Catholics.

But "in real life" contacts are the most valuable, starting with your local Church and local pro-life groups as well as joining and participating in a political party at the electoral district level and HOAs and community associations.

Are you in a Professional Association or a Union? Yes, it might be dominated by leftists, but if you and your friends start going to executive meetings and run for office in the union, then it won't be.

I personally have to make more of an effort to connect to people "in real life" as well as online. We've started to go to more "Church social" events, which can be kinda corny, but have made some good and sympatico friends there. I have to keep going in that direction.

England: Police Ban a Citizen to Comment on Evolutionism, Islam

https://www.gloria.tv/post/NNb6w9AC3s7f4ZRD8zKnY7upN

Police in Bristol have attempted to ban Dia Moodley, a father of four, from commenting on other religions. Moodley has been doing occasional street evangelism for five years. In 2021, the police 'warned' him not to comment on or compare religions, including atheism and the evolution myth, with Christianity.

The hilarious part is that this is happening in ENGLAND where ANGLICANISM is the official state religion.

And you are not allowed to argue in favour of THE STATE RELIGION in public!

If an adherent of ANY OTHER religion were promoting their religion there would be no issue. If an atheist were arguing against all religion there would be no problem.

Only if a Christian is arguing that Jesus is the way the truth and the life and that no one is saved except through Him--only then do they get all upset.

No more obvious sign that "wokeness" is from the demons than this.

Milei ends Argentine government use of ‘inclusive language’ promoted by gender ideology advocates

https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/256948/milei-ends-argentine-government-use-of-inclusive-language-promoted-by-gender-ideology-advocates

So-called “inclusive language” promoted by gender ideology advocates usually requires the modification of the grammatical gender of words so that they do not directly refer to masculine or feminine, using letters such as “x” and “e” or symbols like “@,” thus changing words like “todos” (a masculine generic for “everyone” whether men or women) for the gender neutral “todxs,” “todes,” or “tod@s.”

Excellent!

Like the article says, so-called "non-inclusive language" was never meant to be "non-inclusive". It was already inclusive to say "all men must pay their taxes"; women were not exempt from taxation, and no one would have ever understood it to be so back in the day. Etc.

The ONLY reason for inclusive language is to MAKE THE PAST LOOK BAD. Make us THINK they were sexist back in the day.

It's actually part of the Left's culture war to thoroughly cut the present off from the past, so THEY can be the "be-all, end-all".

It has nothing to do with inclusivity; it's all about power for the elites.

Received this via email:


Dear Supporter,

As you know, Ireland is holding two referendums on March 8, one on the family and one on carers. The one on the family will further downgrade the relative position of marriage in Irish law and society. The second will remove the words 'mother' and 'woman' (in the context of home) from the Constitution as well as removing the necessity to try and protect mothers from being forced out of the home by economic necessity, a move we think is retrograde.

The Iona Institute has produced two memos you may find of some use in seeking to understand the two referendums. You can find the one on the family amendment here:

and the one on the carers' amendment here:

Maria Steen gave a talk last month on the two referendums and you can find here talk here:

You will also find an audio of the talk here:

Finally, we published the findings of a new opinion poll conducted by Amarach Research and commissioned by the Iona Institute which found that 69pc of mothers would prefer to stay at home than go out to work given the chance. We released the results last week and they have already been quoted in the debate. You can find the results here:

... Last fall, 69 per cent of delegates to the Conservative Party's policy convention voted in favour of a motion that said those under the age of 18 should be prohibited from accessing "life-altering medicinal or surgical interventions" to treat "gender confusion and dysphoria." ... Trudeau responded to Poilievre's remarks later Wednesday, telling reporters in Edmonton that Poilievre would "rather pick a fight with trans kids" than deal with the real problems facing Canadians. ...

Unlike many CBC articles, there are no comments section below this story. Kinda tells you where the CBC thinks this would go, eh?

Nearly half of Canadians support banning surgery and hormones for trans kids: exclusive poll | 'On the policies, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith's not wildly off the mark with respect to where public opinion generally is starting from'

https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/canada-poll-transgender-policies

“On the policies, she’s not wildly off the mark with respect to where public opinion generally is starting from,” said Andrew Enns, an executive vice-president at Leger.

Enns admitted that he was “a little bit surprised” by the findings given “the kind of reaction” that came when Premier Smith first tabled the legislation.

I'm disappointed it's so FEW people who oppose this. "Nearly half" of Canadians oppose surgery/hormones for kids means "over half" actually support that kind of mutilation.

Less than a quarter (24 per cent) believed guardians “need not be notified” when educators teach about “gender identity, sexual orientation, or human sexuality.” Nearly a third (32 per cent) said that parents “must” be notified and given the option to “opt into” such classes. Almost three in ten (27 per cent) of respondents fell in the middle, siding with the need to inform parents but not mandate opt-ins.

Again, less than an overwhelming support for sanity. Almost a quarter of Canadians are just fine with sexual topics being secretly taught to chilren.

Most Canadians (68 per cent) agree that transgender women should not be allowed to physically compete against biological women in sports or athletics.

That's a bit better, but I would have like to see that percentage into the high 90s.

Archbishop Viganò: I express my ‘complete solidarity’ with farmers fighting the New World Order

https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/archbishop-vigano-i-express-my-complete-solidarity-with-farmers-fighting-the-new-world-order/

... The only real emergency is our betrayal by our rulers – and by the Catholic Church leadership itself – to the detriment of the entire human race. The servility of the entire political class, the media censorship, the silence of the judiciary, and the complicity of the law enforcement and armed forces in the face of this coup are scandalous.

The time has come for the peoples to courageously and firmly claim their natural and inalienable rights, which have been endangered by the WEF’s global coup d’état. The resignation of those who rule us on behalf of a subversive elite and against the people must be obtained. ...

Whole thing at that link or on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/CarloMVigano/status/1752638914404266245

Viganò is always worth reading. He calls out the Bishops' (and the Pope's) failure to be spiritual fathers.

But honestly, "every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God" (Heb 5:1). When the quality of the people is not very high, the quality of the priests is not very high. It goes back to the family: you need strong, devout, and big families. Then, 25-30 years later, you will have strong devout men ready to be ordained. It's a long-term building project. The senior clergy nowadays grew up in the crazy 1960s and 1970s, so it's not surprising at the poor quality of them.
