Raymonda Hassan "I'm Jewish. And the truth is, Israel does not represent me." Katie Halper, an American Jewish political commentator, breaks down how Israel was never truly about protecting Jewish people. She explains how it exploited the Holocaust to justify the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, while showing deep contempt for Holocaust survivors and Mizrahi Jews. Halper argues that Zionism internalized antisemitism, tried to erase Jewish communities that spoke Yiddish and Arabic, and built a militarized identity that shamed religious and intellectual Jews. She connects this with how Israel uses claims of antisemitism to silence critics while aligning with Christian Zionists, who believe Jews must die for the apocalypse, and other types of anti-Semites. 253K views · 12K reactions | "I'm Jewish.

Saint Opportuna - April 22 Saint Opportuna Opportuna of Séez never raised children of her own, but she became known as a mother to the Benedictine nuns she led in eighth-century France. Born in a castle in a small village near Argentan, Normandy, France, Opportuna entered a convent when she was still young. She received the veil from her brother, Bishop Chrodegang of Séez. Her cousin Lantildis was abbess of the convent at the time. Opportuna's faith and kindness stood out, and before long she was chosen to lead the convent as abbess. Displaying great patience, she offered guidance and support as well as gentle correction when needed. She cared for the nuns as their spiritual mother. Her life took a sorrowful turn when her brother, Bishop Chrodegang, was killed on his way to visit her. The man he entrusted to run the diocese while he was in Rome for seven years planned his murder. And even though Opportuna foresaw her brother's death, she was powerless to stop it. Overcome with grief …More

Dictators live and breathe for control. Many of these diseases are man made by Frankenstein doctors. We must pray daily, be careful, and beg our Guardian Angeles to protect us.
The late great ALAIN DELON’s parents divorced when he was 4yrs old and put him up for adoption - so his answer when asked — “if God exists what would you ask him after your death?” — hits me hard every time.
So sincere and real! It so speaks to our need for and love of our parents, and how as parents we must nurture that love and build on it. It is so sad when even people who have been successfully adopted miss their real parents.
When a man begins to fast, to pray, to deny himself, it is not heaven that is disturbed—but hell. While I lived in distraction, no one troubled me. But when I knelt—then the blows began. Thoughts like arrows. Doubts like a fog. Bodily weakness. Unexpected quarrels. Temptations precisely where I am weakest. And I understood—it is not an attack because I am weak, but because I have begun. The devil does not attack the dead. He attacks those who have awakened. Fasting is not a diet. Fasting is war— war against the old self. War against the passions that bound me for years. A war in which I fall every day, yet rise again. And every time I say “no” to sin, heaven records a victory the world does not see. I am not afraid of temptations. I would be afraid if they did not exist. For where there is no struggle, there is no growth. When there is no attack, it means the enemy has nothing to lose. But I know he does— because I fast, because I pray, because I desire Christ more than my own comfort. …More
“Remember that it has never been heard of in any age, that any sinner who turned to you was rejected by you. I am a miserable sinner, but I turn to you and trust in you.” - Saint Bernard of Clairveaux
The Vatican is pressing forward with the plan to reshape the Church into a more participatory, consultative body with shared decision-making across multiple levels, according to a report by katholisch.de on April 21. On April 17, the General Secretariat of the Synod convened the XVI Ordinary Council in an online session chaired by Cardinal Mario Grech. The meeting opened with a prayer led by Sister Nathalie Becquart. Council members reviewed progress on implementing the final document of the Synod on Synodality and examined ongoing work by study groups. A key next step will be a preparatory meeting at the Vatican from June 23–25, aimed at translating the Synod’s 2024 conclusions into concrete action at the continental level. This implementation phase is scheduled to run through spring 2028. Participants in June will include leaders of major continental episcopal bodies (CELAM, CCEE, and SECAM) alongside representatives of Eastern Catholic patriarchates and delegations from the bishops …More
On today's first anniversary of Francis's death, the homosexual activist James Martin SJ shared a memory from 2024. At the time, Francis had made some negative remarks about homosexual priests using the Italian slur "frociaggine" (faggotry) in a meeting with Italian bishops. A few weeks later, Francis received Fr Martin and discussed the expression. Francis said then that he knew "many holy, faithful, celibate gay priests and seminarians". When Fr Martin suggested proclaiming this publicly, Francis replied, "Oh, but I think I have. And in any event, you can say that!" According to Fr Martin, Francis asked back: "So you're saying that I can say you know many holy, faithful, celibate gay priests and seminarians?" Francis shrugged and said, "Of course. Because I do!" [In reality, the Church has suffered from many unholy, unfaithful, sexually active gay priests.] A few days later, during an audience with comedians, Fr Martin greeted Francis again. The Pope said, "Thank you for our meeting …More
Gay is an adjective that applies to someone tempted to homosexual sin and is proud of the temptation and acting on the temptation. He or she also encourages others to be proud of their temptations and sins. The specific difference is pride. One who is tempted or sins in a homosexual manner and experiences compunction and repugnance is not gay. Given that definition one cannot be a good gay catholic or a good gay priest. Pride is a vice. It changes a tempted person or sinner who should be ashamed into a vicious monster. Bergoglio's and Martin's ambiguity serves as a smoke screen for contradicting divine revelation and traditional moral doctrine.
The characteristics of the created, evil spirit of the devil ~ "The second spirit that is created also has three characteristics. He is burning, bitter, and unclean. First, he is burning and consuming like fire, for he completely enkindles the soul he possesses with the fire of lust and evil desire, so that the soul that is filled by him can neither think nor desire anything other than fulfilling this desire; and the consequence of this is that her temporal life is sometimes lost along with all honor and consolation. Second, he is bitter as gall, since he so inflames the soul with his evil lust, that future joys seem like nothing to her and eternal goods but foolishness. And all the things that are of God and which she, the soul, is obligated to do for God, become as bitter and despicable to her as vomit and gall. Third, he is unclean, since he makes the soul so vile and inclined to sin that she does not feel ashamed for any sin, and she would not abstain from any sin, if she did not …More
[Saint Bridget of Sweden/ Heliga Birgitta; XIV Century AD: aged 69-70; Uppland, Sweden/Rome, Papal States; Widow, Mystic; Spiritual Writer; Founder; Patroness of Europe] Chapter 54 ~ The words of an angel to the bride about whether the spirit of her thoughts is good or bad, and about how there are two spirits, one uncreated and one created, and about their characteristics. A holy angel spoke to the bride and said: “There are two spirits, one uncreated and one created. The uncreated Spirit has three characteristics: First, he is hot; second, sweet; and third, pure. First, he gives off warmth, and his warmth does not come from created things but from himself, since he, together with the Father and the Son, is Creator of all things and Almighty. He gives off warmth when the whole soul burns for the love of God. Second, he is sweet, when nothing pleases the soul and nothing delights it but God and the recollection of his deeds. Third, he is so pure that no sin can be found in him, nor any …More
"But what should the one who is full of the devil do, since the good Spirit cannot enter him who is full of evil? He should do three things: First, he should make a pure and complete confession of his sins. Even if he cannot directly feel a complete remorse for his sins due to his hardened heart, still the confession will benefit him so much that the devil ceases with his treachery and yields to the good spirit. Second, he should be humble and wish to amend for all the sins he has committed and do the good deeds he can, and then the devil will begin to leave. Third, he should beseech God with humble prayer in order that he may get the good Spirit back and have contrition for the sins he has committed along with true divine love, since the love for God kills the devil. This devil is so envious and full of malice that he would rather die a hundred times than see someone do God the least little good deed out of love.”
