The Archdiocese of Chicago is introducing “natural” burial plots in a section of St. Michael the Archangel Cemetery in Palatine, Illinois. The new section, dedicated to St. Kateri Tekakwitha, will allow for the use of biodegradable caskets and burial without chemical embalming. This option responds to “a growing environmental consciousness among Americans,” the archdiocese said.

Ahem...... Listen up: Jewish caskets are all wood construction (biodegradable) In construction they have been doweled, pegged, and glued together, no nails, metal, or unnatural materials. This makes the caskets "Kosher for Burial". The pure wood construction of Kosher caskets, adorned with only a little more than the Star of David, adhere to and embrace the traditions governed by Jewish Law. Jewish law requires that the body, in its entirety, be returned to the earth. For this reason, cremation, autopsies and embalming are forbidden. The natural process of decomposition must occur so that the body can reunite with the soil from which it was formed. Pope John Paul 2 was not embalmed. Sister Wilhelmina's body was not embalmed and did not receive any other treatments prior to her burial. She was buried in an unsealed wooden casket. Although the casket had deteriorated, her body was not decomposed and her habit and clothing showed no features of breakdown.

I wonder how "conservative" these newly ordained young priests really are. When i was in seminary, you had to keep your head down and educate yourself on tradition using mainly books [Internet was in its infancy]. But now with all the outline pundits and social media 'influencers' it's hard to distinguish the truly orthodox from the grifters. One just needs to look at the crazy Eucharistic "revival" they just had: Youtube priests, contemporary music, & selfies! Not really traditional. Sure there's a lot of young people at the TLM, but how many more are getting "Catholicism-lite"?

The Full Analysis of the Olympic Last Supper Revelations 12. It isn't JUST mockery of Christ and Christianity. They are revealing their own Satanic religious practices. The scene at the Olympics is the anti-Last Supper referencing Revelations 12: " A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. 2 She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth. 3 Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads... The dragon (the Bacchus figure) stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that it might devour her child the moment he was born." The fat woman, dressed in blue, with the sun and 12 stars on her head is the anti-Madonna. There is a menacing looking person in red standing next to her, but the star of the scene represents Satan, the Dragon, Bacchus, Dionysus, Baphomet (all the gods of the pagans …More
