President Donald Trump became the first U.S. President to issue a statement to Catholics on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception: Today, I recognize every American celebrating December 8 as a Holy Day honoring the faith, humility, and love of Mary, mother of Jesus and one of the greatest figures in the Bible. On the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, Catholics celebrate what they believe to be Mary’s freedom from original sin as the mother of God. She first entered recorded history as a young woman when, according to Holy Scripture, the Angel Gabriel greeted her in the village of Nazareth with news of a miracle: “Hail, favored one! The Lord is with you,” announcing that “you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name him Jesus.” In one of the most profound and consequential acts of history, Mary heroically accepted God’s will with trust and humility: “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word.” Mary’s decision forever …
More theatrics. Trump is the king of useless gestures when it is regarding the American Catholic Conservative movement. And like their poster boy Raymond Arroyo they eat it up while Trump is slowly but surely surrounding us with his thugs.
@Jeffrey Ade strong support to your great opinion!! my great online friend, brother Jeffrey!!! yes!!! you are totally right!!!! As I said before, this is purely a hoax and a farce... The 8th marked the first anniversary of the fall of the Bashar al-Assad regime in Syria, and it's clear that the situation in Syria is far more dire than under Assad... Although a dictator, Bashar al-Assad protected Syria's Christian community and other religious minorities, and he was a man who paved the way for a modern Country...But look at Syria today, a year after the fall of Assad... The Syrian interim government, led by Ahmed al-Shara, the leader of a vicious Islamic extremist group, talks about protecting everyone and the Christian community and religious minorities, but in reality, it is simply following the path of vicious Islamic extremism, and the Syrian Christian community and religious minorities are being massacred in real time...Here, I am sure that we must also know exactly what the current US Republicans, including Donald Trump, JD Vance, and Marco Rubio, have done. What do these people keep saying?? They talk about protecting the Christian community, and that faith is the most important thing. But what did they do when Ahmed al-Shara visited the US??? They did not even make the minimum request to protect the Christian community and religious minorities, and instead, they even suspended sanctions... What kind of actions are they taking while the lives of the Syrian Christian community and religious minorities are becoming more miserable?? I find it absolutely disgusting that people who are concerned about the situation in Syria and all that don't criticize Trump, JD Vance, Marco Rubio, and the current Republicans... This isn't the only disgusting thing they've done... It's equally disgusting that they ignore the Israeli, Palestinian, Lebanese, and Armenian Christian communities oppressed by the false Zionists... And as I mentioned yesterday, the EU has adopted a major foreign policy of further strengthening LGBT and indiscriminate abortion-promoting ideologies, and neither Trump, Vance, Rubio, nor the current US Republican Party has properly criticized this. Do they think it's right to force that wrong ideology on all sensible countries, including African Christian countries (Uganda, Ghana, Nigeria, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Kenya, Tanzania, etc.)? If they are clear on their beliefs, they should tell the EU not to do it and firmly oppose it... So funny situation... hmm... That's why I always say this... We must run away from false religiousism... It is a very dangerous and wrong path... And... Until the moment our Lord Jesus Christ allows, whether now or tomorrow, we must fight against all false ideologies and defend the teachings and true truth of the Orthodox Church!!! May the our Lord Sacred Heart of Jesus always shower you and your family and all your loved ones with infinite graces... Holy Mary, all the angels and saints... pray for us... Amen... Take care... Have a good day... We are preparing for a great persecution!!!!
@frawley Thank you for your comment. I like to point out the truth of the situation to my Gloria.tv friends. We find ourselves in this mess because we failed to fulfill Our Lady of Fatima's request. Now it is show time! God bless you!
@Chung Clement Jaeho Thank you for your comment! I see you captured the mockery of Trump's useless gesture! Trump is a very sophisticated occult master, mocking those he praises! He mocks the US Catholic community and then supports its destruction in the Middle East! God bless you!
@Mazza La Ragazza Thank you for your comment. Your argument is the fallacy of false dilemma. Catholics may not vote for the evil of two candidates, Trump or Harris. And your supposition that if we "had Harris we wouldn't have had a fighting chance" is ludicrous. In the States Catholic do not have a fighting chance voting in the US Government elections. Only ignorant people think these elections make a difference. US Government elections do not make a difference because most people who vote even Catholics, do not realize the US Government always wins! God bless you!
@Jeffrey Ade strong support to your great opinion!! my great online friend, broteher Jeffrey... yes!!!! I am convinced that this logic, that we must choose the lesser evil or support it, must be rejected...The lesser of two evils is just evil, and Trump, JD Vance, and the current Republicans are all just new forms of evil, yet so many orthodox Catholic and Christian People are unconditionally support them, it's mind-boggling. There are a lot of those idiots on this site, too.... so disgusting.... And another important thing is that, as I mentioned before, I am convinced that in order to resolutely fight against LGBT and the ideology that promotes indiscriminate abortion, it is extremely important to start by being clean myself... Even if you do this, it is very difficult to fight, so just look at Trump himself and his associates... How many people are dirty in private, having affairs, in inappropriate relationships??? Look at Steve Bannon. He boasts about being a devout Catholic... It's truly disgusting that a three-time divorcee is being praised as such... What right do these people have to speak out against LGBT and indiscrimition Abortion ideologies, when their own personal lives are so filthy!! They deserve to be ridiculed and condemned... and that's exactly what's happening right now.... hmm... And I hear there's a high possibility that Trump will go to war with Venezuela, or even Iran. This is also truly astonishing... If Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, or Joe Biden had gone to war with Venezuela or Iran, what would Trump, Vance, and the current Republicans have said? They would have lashed out, accusing them of waging a pointless war... But it's truly absurd that they think the wars they're starting are okay... If the current Democratic Party were to return to power and persecute the orthodox Catholics and Christians who unconditionally supported Trump, it would undoubtedly be their own doing. Of course, true orthodox Catholics like you and Christians of genuine faith and purpose have accurately pointed out the flaws of Trump, JD Vance, and the current Republican Party and have vehemently opposed their flawed ideology. But what should we do if that happens? With so many foolish people supporting Trump, Vance, and the current Republican Party, it seems inevitable that the current Democratic Party would return to power and retaliate. In fact, it might even be better. I believe that completely eradicating visible evil is far more valuable than fighting a new evil... Of course, we can't know for sure under the current circumstances... It's just that a new form of dictatorship is being strengthened, and there's a high possibility that Trump will use war with Venezuela and Iran as an excuse to declare the Fourth Reich...Even if we're a small minority, even if we're just one person, I firmly believe that it's important to walk the right path. How glorious it would be if even one person could walk the right path! and then... until the moment our Lord Jesus Christ allows, whether it is now or tomorrow, we must fight against all false ideologies and defend Orthodox teachings and the true truth!!! May the our Lord Sacred Heart of Jesus always grant you, your family and all your loved ones infinite graces....Holy Mary, all Angels and Saints.. pray for us... Amen.. take care.. have a wonderful day... preparing about huge perseution..have a great Advent season too....
@Jeffrey Ade Who said anything about voting for either Trump or Kamla? As it happens, I wouldn't have voted for either, as I didn't vote at the last election in the UK. I just think, if Kamla got in there there wouldn't have been ANY chance , the crackdown would have been immediate and inescapable with worldwide ramifications.
@Mazza La Ragazza Thank you for your comment! I believe it is all theatrics and nothing would be different because they are implementing a plan and it will continue to go according to their plan regardless of who is in office. Your above comment about "the crackdown would have been immediate," expresses an idea who's time has not come here in the US. The masses have to be dumbed down into opposing camps that can be directed by the US Government Bolshevik's. The push back by traditional Americans would have been very strong and would have been a reaction they could n ot handle so they send in the king of the deal to boil the American frogs slowly but surely. God bless you!
I get all your points, you seem quite confident the Traddies of traddiland to pull off a victory - that they would have been able to stop or in some measure stay the incompetence of the Dems. I don't know about that. I thought they were but a tiny per centage and many are modernists and don't know it.
@Mazza La Ragazza I meant the traddy Americans who would resist a revolutionary takeover of the government by obviously communist agents, not Catholics. Most traddy Catholics voted for Trump so that group is politically neutralized. At least they still have the Rosary and Our Lady's promises! God bless you!
Though many may call this 'pandering' the statement seems more Catholic than Leo's ramblings on the Feast which seemed to downplay the dogma in line with the anti-Marian focus of the modernist church.
