On Pentecost Monday, Cardinal Raymond Burke will celebrate the closing Mass of this year's Chartres Pilgrimage in France. With more than 20,000 pilgrims registered to take part, this is the highest number yet. Other celebrants and preachers alongside Cardinal Burke include Monsignor Patrick Chauvet, former rector of Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris; Father Antonius Maria Furtado, Superior General of the Missionaries of the Holy Cross; and Father Serge-Thomas Bonino, OP. Cardinal Burke also celebrated the closing Mass of the pilgrimage in 2017. Other prelates who have previously celebrated the Mass include Bishop Athanasius Schneider, Cardinal Gerhard Müller and Cardinal Robert Sarah. #newsFfujebqnww
Abp. Vigano: Müller, Sarah, and Burke constitute a controlled opposition. Their role is to contain the hemorrhage of Catholics caused by the conciliar revolution, deluding the faithful into thinking that it is possible for two opposing entities to coexist. Obedience to the Hierarchy becomes misleading when it deviates from the Truth of Dogma and Tradition. Unity is not primarily institutional but doctrinal, rooted in the immutable Deposit of Faith. .
[St. Augustine of Hippo – IV-V Century AD; born: Thagaste, Roman Empire/died: Hippo, Western Roman Empire; (aged 75) – Church Father – Doctor of the Church – Blessed; Resting Place – Pavia, Italy] Chapter VI 16. Hence there follows most justly the statement, "Ye are the salt of the earth;" showing that those parties are to be judged insipid, who, either in the eager pursuit after abundance of earthly blessings, or through the dread of want, lose the eternal things which can neither be given nor taken away by men. "But if the salt have lost its savor, wherewith shall it be salted?" i.e., If ye, by means of whom the nations in a measure are to be preserved [from corruption], through the dread of temporal persecutions shall lose the kingdom of heaven, where will be the men through whom error may be removed from you, since God has chosen you, in order that through you He might remove the error of others? Hence the savorless salt is "good for nothing, but to be cast out, and trodden under …More
Fear of persecution: "Hence the savorless salt is "good for nothing, but to be cast out, and trodden under foot of men." It is not therefore he who suffers persecution, but he who is rendered savorless by the fear of persecution that is trodden under foot of men."

I was very prideful," he said during an interview. "I asked our Lord to help me be the man that he created me to be." "And upon that instance, I had this massive flood of love and mercy that came into my life. It was a very mystical experience."

[Saint Albert the Great – Albertus Magnus – XIII Century AD; born: Duchy of Bavaria/died: Cologne, Holy Roman Empire; (Aged ca 80); German Dominican friar, philosopher, scientist, and bishop; one of the greatest medieval philosophers and thinkers; Doctor of the Church] Chapter 9 ~ How much the contemplation of God is to be preferred to all other exercises Now since all things other than God are the effect and work of the Creator himself, their having ability and being is a limited power and existence, and being as they are created out of nothing, they are circumscribed by the effects of their nothingness, while their tendency of themselves towards nothingness means that we receive our existence, preservation and activity moment by moment from the Creator himself, along with whatever other qualities created things may have, just as we receive their insufficiency to any action of themselves, both with regard to themselves and to others, in relation to him whose operation they are, they …More
Love over Intellect:"But the contemplation of the Saints, and of Catholics, is for the love of him that is of the God they are contemplating. As a result it is not confined in the final analysis to the intellect in knowledge, but crosses over into the will through love. That is why the Saints in their contemplation have the love of God as their principal aim, since it is more satisfying to know and possess even the Lord Jesus Christ spiritually through grace than physically or even really but without grace."
Officer Swears He Found Frank With Young Girl Special policeman volunteers damaging testimony after recognizing suspect in jail tower; Pinkerton force expanded as solicitor denies knowledge of screams affidavit Sunday, May 11th, 1913 A Volunteer Witness Comes Forward A special policeman named Robert P. House has come forward with testimony that investigators say could be used to damage the character of Leo M. Frank, the superintendent of the National Pencil Factory and the principal suspect in the murder of Mary Phagan. House, employed by the Druid Hills Land Company as a private officer on their property, told Atlanta detectives that more than a year ago he apprehended Frank and a young girl together in a secluded area of Druid Hills Park, and that Frank admitted on the spot that the two had come to the woods for immoral purposes. House volunteered the information himself. When he first read accounts of the Phagan murder in the newspapers, the incident came back to him. Recalling that …More
Darshak Rana @thedarshakrana In 1964, a 17 year old from San Diego conducted the most dangerous psychology experiment ever attempted by a teenager. Randy Gardner stayed awake for 264 hours (11 days) with: • No stimulants • No caffeine • No medical suppressants And Stanford sleep researchers realized too late they couldn't stop him. What happened inside his brain during those 264 hours rewrote everything we thought we knew about consciousness. By day three, Randy's short term memory had completely collapsed. He couldn't remember starting a sentence by the time he reached the end of it. Researchers would ask him to count backward from 100, and he'd stop at 65, staring blankly, having forgotten the entire concept of numbers. But the terrifying part wasn't the memory loss. Randy's brain began creating a second reality that ran parallel to the real one. He'd have full conversations with people who weren't there. He'd walk to locations that didn't exist. His eyes stayed open, his body kept …More

From OOOgle A.I. No, there is no natural way to "make" ivermectin yourself. Ivermectin is a semisynthetic drug. While it is derived from a natural source, it requires chemical modification in a laboratory to become the final medication used today. However, there are several "anti-parasite" herbs: Neem plant extract: Used in some veterinary settings as a natural alternative to replace ivermectin for certain pests. Garlic extract: Some studies in livestock (like sheep) have explored using natural garlic extract to manage parasite loads. Sainfoin: A medicinal forage crop used in animal nutrition for its anti-parasitic properties Black Walnut Hull Cloves Pumpkin Seeds: Contain cucurbitin, which can paralyze worms. Thyme and Oregano: Contain compounds that are effective against various parasites Common Protocols: Many, including Remedy's Nutrition, suggest a combination of 4–6 herbs over 14–30 days.
Plato in his early years taught that rump-ranging was a very Nobel Act. Later, he condemned these actions. Plato’s views on homosexuality evolved from viewing it as a potentially noble, intellectual pursuit in early works to condemning physical same-sex acts as "unnatural" and illegal in his later writing, the Laws. He generally separated "celestial love"—a spiritual, mentoring connection—from the "common love" of mere physical pleasure. The Symposium and Pederasty: In his earlier work, specifically the Symposium, Plato (through characters like Pausanias) presents the traditional Greek pederastic relationship (an older man mentoring a youth) as noble, natural, and superior to heterosexual relationships when it focuses on the love of the soul rather than the body. Idealized Love (Phaedrus): Plato describes love between men as a, "deep, intense spiritual bond" that can lead to virtuous pursuits. However, he also describes the sexual act as a temporary lapse in judgment (losing wings …More
