Communion in the hand is disobeying Jesus

Jesus specified the form of Holy Communion as "Take and Eat", not "Open your mouth and stick your tongue". Communion on the tongue is simply another tick of satin to encourage Catholics to disobey Jesus in mass.

Beatus Vir

"another tick of satin" - What is that!? Listen fella, you really are an Novus Ordo clown! Everything - everything - we have and believe in our Catholic faith we receive from God, we do not take it, grab it, demand it or even have a right to it. Everything is given by God in and through our Lord Jesus Christ and His Church as His Gift to us to receive in worship, adoration, praise and thanksgiving. Get of your high Novus Ordo donkey and get a bit of humility - for the love of God. Holy Communion on the tongue is the most reverent and safest way of receiving the Lord - and remember it is the Lord! I recommend you to read Bishop Athanasius Schneider in Christus Vincit chapter 14 The Eucharist and Holy Communion page 219 and following.

Aquinas very wrong in at least 3 important ways

1. Aquinas (and St. Agustine also) said that early gestation unborn babies are vegetable and animals before becoming human. Pro-abortion Catholic President Biden and Catholic Speaker Pelosi both quoted this in their defense of early legal abortion.
2.Aquinas said that “conscience” must always be followed. This is absolutely contrary to Catholic teaching, but some people still cite this as justification for abortion.
3. Aquinas foolishly said that lying is never permissible. Imagine the classic situation that you are hiding Jews in your attic during WW2 and the Nazis ask you if you are hiding Jews. According to Aquinas you must tell the Nazis “Yes they are in the attic” which results in the murder of the Jews. Aquinas is wrong...Biblically wrong.

1. Was there clarity regarding the infusion of the soul at that time settled by the Church ? You can be sure St Thomas would have changed his opinion to be in conformity. He is obviously not infallible.
2. Conscience is "with knowledge". Plainly without knowledge would mean something different. As Catholic Doctrine is clear i.e the science exists and is clear that abortion is a grave moral evil , those who support it follow contrascience.
3. Is a bit of a straw man and obviously the action of providing information to aid evil would not be supported by Aquinas. You could truthfully hold the position that Christ determines the sons of Abraham as those who like Abraham, rejoiced at His coming. Being God, He gets to define who they are surely. What labels men choose to erroneously co-opt is their own affair. You are quite free to ignore the misdesignation without scruple. So you can with good conscience say quite truthfully there are no Jews here, thereby protecting your neighbour and avoid …More

Let me guess. That Hindus are on a loving, trusting flight towards God, and that Muslims prize the moral life and give worship to God through prayer, almsgiving, and fasting. How did I do? I went right to the documents of Vatican II.

This is disobedience to Jesus and pride that you know better than Jesus

Jesus said “Take and Eat”
Most Catholics tell Jesus:
“Heck no, I don’t have to obey you
Jesus said “Take and Eat”
Most Catholics tell Jesus:
“Heck no, I know a better way. I will open my mouth and stick out my tongue.”

Planned Parenthood Report Shows Record Number of Babies Killed in Abortions

breitbart.com

Planned Parenthood Report Shows Record Number of Abortions

Planned Parenthood released a report over Easter weekend showing a record number of abortions between 2023-2024.
The abortion giant’s service data is a year behind, with the 2024-2025 report
showing the number of abortions the organization carried out between 2023 and 2024.
According to the report, titled “Care Continues,” Planned Parenthood aborted 434,450 unborn babies in that time period. The pro-life Charlotte Lozier Institute (CLI) released an analysis of the report, showing an 8 percent increase from the previous year and a 34 percent increase since 2014.
“Yet again, abortions performed by Planned Parenthood hit a record high, demonstrating that abortion remains a top priority for the organization,” CLI Senior Research Associate Tessa Cox said in a statement.
The report shows that prenatal services, miscarriage care, and adoption referrals accounted for only 1.7 percent (7,685), 0.6 percent (2,852), and 0.7 percent (3,038) of the organization’s other services.
CLI broke down …

Early Christian Communion in the Hand

As a scholar of the early Church, I was surprised to learn that the practice of communion in the hand is such a hotly debated topic; it came to my attention during the early days of the pandemic, when many dioceses required communicants to receive in this way. Whatever one thinks about the practice today and its reemergence after Vatican II, it is important that our conversation be grounded in an accurate picture of the history of this practice. Receiving communion in the hand was the common practice of the Church in both East and West for the first 800 years of Christianity, and it was certainly considered reverent by the Fathers.
In North Africa (including Egypt) the practice is mentioned by Tertullian,[1] Cyprian,[2] Augustine,[3] Cyril of Alexandria,[4] and John Climacus.[5] In Jerusalem, we have the mystagogical catecheses of Cyril of Jerusalem (or perhaps of his successor, John).[6] In Syria (what we now call Turkey and surrounding regions) it is witnessed by Basil the Great,[7] …

The British are very passionate about child sacrifice

They very jealously guard their freedom to murder their own children Like the Aztecs who conducted 100,000s of human sacrifices each year The British murder on average 300,000 babies a year But that is not enough to placate their insatiable god Now they've legalised murdering babies up to the moment of birth It is now legal for mothers to murder their babies up to 9 months old for whatever reason But don't expect the death cult that rules the British to stop there No doubt they will soon demand that babies can be murdered after birth for mental health or financial reasons
Moloch is a very demanding demon

The Catholic and conservative position on war with Iran

americanthinker.com

The truly conservative position on Iran

On Tuesday night, President Trump made his case for attacking Iran. Over the past few weeks, the Pentagon has assembled more air and naval assets in the Middle East than have been deployed in the region at any time since the invasion of Iraq in 2003. An attack on Iran seems almost certain — indeed, the Times of Israel quoted officials as saying that a strike on Iran is probably “unavoidable.”
Perhaps we ought to ask ourselves if an attack on Iran is prudent or desirable.
The justifications proffered by the Trump administration seem pretextual, and the goalposts have been moving. Last year, when Trump ordered the bombing of Iran, his stated objective was to end Iran’s nuclear enrichment program. The president assured us that this was an overwhelming success. Apparently it was not enough, though. Since then, there has been talk about regime change, punishing Iran for killing anti-government protesters, and destroying Iran’s conventionally armed ballistic missiles.
In his address, …

I am not convinced President Trump has the same "regime change" goal as the previous globalist US administrations ie: to change their culture. Iran has publicly declared its decisive goal as the destruction of Isreal and the USA. Decisive proactive measures to thwart this goal are reasonable and arguably necessary.

women who die during abortion

Some, when they find themselves with child through their sin, use drugs to procure abortion, and when (as often happens) they die with their offspring, they enter the lower world laden with the guilt not only of adultery against Christ but also of suicide and child murder."
~St. Jerome (347-420):

10 Powerful Early Christian Quotes on Abortion
The early Church Fathers consistently condemned abortion, often equating it with murder and emphasizing the sanctity of life from conception. These quotes reflect the moral clarity and theological depth of the early Christian stance, rooted in Scripture and lived counterculturally in a world where abortion and infanticide were common.
1. St. John Chrysostom (c. 347–407)
"Why do you abuse the gift of God and fight with His laws... and make the place of procreation a chamber for murder, and arm the woman that was given for childbearing unto slaughter?"
— Homily 24 on Romans
Reflection: Chrysostom delivers a fiery rebuke, portraying abortion as a profound violation of God’s design. He transforms the imagery of the womb from a sacred space of creation to one of violence and death.
2. The Didache (Teaching of the Twelve Apostles, c. 70–110 AD)
"You shall not murder a child by abortion."
— Didache 2:2
Reflection: One of the earliest Christian …More

Women's liberation is one of the "Errors of Russia," as is all modern feminist principles practiced here in the States! Fr. Wolfe has a great sermon on how this came about through the Russian revolution. Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us!

Divorce, contraception, women vote, in college, in workplace, mayors, governors etc. Abortion is the ultimate evil manifestation of "women's liberation," the primordal deception. We are poor banished children of Eve.
