12/14/2025 Entire blog as a free PDF eBook. This provocative headline appeared in an article on The Vigilant Fox on Wednesday: The Pandemic Revealed the Most Cowardly Society of All Time. We masked toddlers, banned funerals, and cheered censorship. COVID didn’t break us—it revealed who we really are. Scientific studies comparing the “morbidity” of COVID-19 have several methodological flaws. First, the author’s claim that COVID-19 is a real disease is false. COVID-19 was invented by appropriating ten already known upper respiratory infections, including influenza, to create a new disease name to justify a dangerous pandemic. The best evidence for this is the sudden and unexpected decline in influenza cases at the time COVID-19 was claiming its victims. The second, far more serious error in these studies is the acceptance of the PCR test, developed by the German charlatan Christian Drosten and some of his followers, as the gold standard for diagnosing this non-existent disease.

Jimmy Lai, a Catholic dissident from Hong Kong who creates religious drawings in his prison cell, has been convicted by the Chinese government on absurd charges. For background information, here is an interview with his daughter.
Claire Lai, the daughter of 78-year-old Catholic convert Jimmy Lai, has spoken out for the first time about her father, who has been imprisoned under Hong Kong’s National Security Law for five years. The charge is “collusion with foreign forces.” According to Claire, her father is in rapidly declining health, suffering from diabetes, hypertension and infections, as well as severe weight loss. He lives in a windowless cell in heat, with no access to fresh air or sunlight. She says he has been denied regular medical care, the Eucharist and even his rosary. Yet his faith sustains him: he prays daily, reads the Gospel when permitted, and believes that God is with him. “He is innocent,” she says. “He has suffered enough. Unless something changes, he may become a martyr for freedom.”

Advent and Christmas with the Church Fathers Introduction The proclamation of John the Baptist, fulfilled in the coming of Christ, reechoes throughout the time of Advent as an uninterrupted voice travelling from nation to nation and heart to heart. Hearing alone is insufficient to accept the invitation to prepare the way of the Lord; rather, an inner listening is necessary for the invitation to be effective in our lives and in the lives of others. Let us make time each day for an encounter with Christ so he will not run into the obstacles of boredom, sadness, sin, anxiety, superficiality, possessiveness, and greed.Origen, We find this passage from the Old Testament in the Book of the Prophet Isaiah: 'A voice cries out: / In the desert prepare the way of the Lord! / Make straight in the wasteland a highway for our God!' (Is 40:3). The Lord seeks to find in you a pathway to enter your soul and complete his journey; thus, prepare for him that path of which it has been written to 'make …
Sat Dec 13, 2025 - 10:41 am EST (LifeSiteNews) — A leader in the Marxist, anti-family Black Lives Matter movement is facing dozens of federal criminal charges. “A federal grand jury indicted the leader of the Black Lives Matter movement in Oklahoma City over allegations that millions of dollars in grant funds were improperly spent on international trips, groceries and personal real estate,” the Associated Press (AP) reported Thursday. “Tashella Sheri Amore Dickerson, 52, was indicted earlier this month on 20 counts of wire fraud and five counts of money laundering,” the AP reported. Dickerson reportedly took money raised through the Oklahoma BLM organization and used it for her own personal benefit. The group raised millions of dollars since 2020 on the back of controversy over the killing of George Floyd, supposedly to use to bail accused criminals out of prison. Instead, “Dickerson embezzled at least $3.15 million into her personal accounts and then used the money to pay for trips …
Beata Vergine del Patrocinio - December 14th, 2025 | No Greater Delight No Greater Delight is a daily Marian podcast meant to start the day with a Marian touch. After examining the Marian feasts celebrated throughout the world on a given day, Fr. Nate offers a brief reflection to help make our love for Our Lady concrete in daily living. The title "No Greater Delight" is inspired by a homily of Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, wherein he expresses his joy in preaching about the Virgin Mother, even though he acknowledges the challenge of adequately praising her. Mary's greatness is beyond words. 0:00 Feasts of Mary Today 03:23 True Devotion to Mary WhatsApp Channel: Catholic Voice Links: catholicvoice | Instagram, Facebook | Linktree
BEATA VERGINE DEL PATROCINIO Faenza – 14 dicembre 1954 – Incoronazione Una donna della Famiglia Baldi entra nel convento benedettino camaldolese con il nome di suor Francesca portando con se un quadro miracoloso che ritrae la Vergine che allatta il Bambino Gesù. La sacra immagine della Madonna del Patrocinio, attualmente venerata nella Chiesa del Monastero di S. Caterina, a Faenza, fu prima onorata nella casa della Famiglia Baldi, a Forti, la quale diede alla Comunità Camaldolese una figlia, con il nome di Suor Francesca. Alla morte di questa, il Vescovo di Forti volle che la sacra immagine fosse trasferita nella Chiesa delle Suore Camaldolesi. Ciò avvenne nell’anno 1614, con grande solennità e concorso di popolo. Le Suore, meravigliate per la fede e il fervore manifestati dai Forlivesi in quella occasione, decisero di collocare la immagine della Vergine in una cappella di marmo, eretta in suo onore. L’ultima domenica di settembre del 1650, con l’intervento del Cardinale …More
An American tech company allegedly helped a foreign country plan a terrorist attack on a U.S.-allied nation, injuring nearly 4,000 people and killing children. The UN condemned the attack as a war crime. That company, Palantir, receives over half its funding from U.S. government contracts and holds $10 billion in U.S. Army contracts. In a just society, executives involved in such actions would face prison—not continued taxpayer funding. Who will hold them accountable?
Every time there’s a terrorist attack, politicians use it to cut back civil liberties. We saw it with the Patriot Act, which is still in place decades later. Tragedies are repeatedly used to justify permanent expansions of state power.

In 1940, the United States faced a terrifying intelligence blackout. Japan had deployed a new encryption system so sophisticated that American codebreakers called it simply "Purple." The machine used telephone stepping switches wired in patterns so complex that even the world's best cryptanalysts couldn't find a way in. For 18 grueling months, the team at the U.S. Army's Signal Intelligence Service tried everything—and failed. Then came Genevieve Grotjan. A 27-year-old statistician from Buffalo, New York, Grotjan had been hired after scoring remarkably high on a civil service mathematics exam. She'd originally wanted to teach math but couldn't find a school that would hire her. Instead, she found herself in a cramped second-floor room of the Munitions Building in Washington, D.C., staring at pages of encrypted Japanese messages that looked like meaningless jumbles of letters. On September 20, 1940—a sweltering Friday afternoon—Grotjan saw something no one else had noticed. Working with …More
While more than 10 million pilgrims filled the streets of Tepeyac for the 12 December celebrations honouring Our Lady of Guadalupe, a serious internal crisis has been unfolding at the Basilica in Mexico City. According to InfoVaticana (15 December), the rector, Canon Efraín Hernández Díaz, has been removed from office and placed under a canonical investigation ordered by the Archdiocese of Mexico. The move followed an unprecedented formal complaint by the Guadalupe chapter to Cardinal Carlos Aguiar Retes. The canons accuse the rector of opaque financial administration, lack of transparency and accountability, and of bypassing them. The chapter shares legal responsibility for overseeing the sanctuary. According to the canons, these practices endangered both the material assets and the spiritual mission of Mexico’s most important Marian shrine. In response, Cardinal Aguiar removed the rector on 20 September and ordered a preliminary canonical investigation, opened on 3 October. The …More
Book of Numbers 24,2-7.15-17a. When Balaam raised his eyes and saw Israel encamped, tribe by tribe, the spirit of God came upon him, and he gave voice to his oracle: The utterance of Balaam, son of Beor, the utterance of the man whose eye is true, The utterance of one who hears what God says, and knows what the Most High knows, Of one who sees what the Almighty sees, enraptured, and with eyes unveiled: How goodly are your tents, O Jacob; your encampments, O Israel! They are like gardens beside a stream, like the cedars planted by the LORD. His wells shall yield free-flowing waters, he shall have the sea within reach; His king shall rise higher than. . . . and his royalty shall be exalted. Then Balaam gave voice to his oracle: The utterance of Balaam, son of Beor, the utterance of the man whose eye is true, The utterance of one who hears what God says, and knows what the Most High knows, Of one who sees what the Almighty sees, enraptured and with eyes unveiled. I see him, though not now …More
