It's a warning. "Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand"
Perhaps you missed my added point, that a satanic cancer is killing Western Civilization AND islam rising is a symptom of the dying.
The optimistic view would be that from the ashes a new or renewed faith will emerge for Christian civilization. A Phoenix will arise from the fire of Notre Dame in the form of an appreciation of the values and accomplishments of the West. This will be spearhead by people like Jordan Peterson, Donald Trump and new apologists that will fight against the encroachments of radical Islam and Marxism in both Europe and America. New heroes are needed to heed the call to reclaim the treasures of the past and press against the barbarians already within the shining City on the Hill. The symbolism connotes an epic battle that can be fought and won by a renewed spirit fully aware of what is at stake and its duty to a free people. History will tell...
The pope would be the obvious leader of such a resurgence. But this pope is an apologist for the international islamic takeover. Amy resurgence in Christianity will have to be independent of government or church officials.
Yes, this Pope shows how far the danger has advanced. He’s a Marxist Pope. Both Marxism and radial Islam are a form of diseased mentality and Marxism is surely enabling Islam.
Good points
Islam is a war plan.
Next time by fire.
There will also come a time when the warnings will end and the consequences of not heeding them begin.
I tend to think of God’s warnings being plagues, pandemics, earthquakes, floods, hurricanes and tornadoes, not structural fires.
I believe that a natural environmental situation can trigger a chain of events that looks to be a man-made disaster.
If this were a warning from God wouldn’t he have used lightning?
It’s interesting VK. Clement has a powerful voice and I like the musical background to his talk. Thanks for sharing.
When I sit in the library and work, in the book shelves behind me are the shelves — actually the beginning of the Dewey Decimal system so Philosophy books and a bunch of computer programming books as well as directories of all sorts of things.
So I ran across a book titled, “The 1,000 musical pieces you need to hear before you die”. Provocative title, eh?
So I decided to use their recommendations and find the music they recommended on YouTube, and I think I could find 90% of the tunes I searched.
So I download 10 tunes. And the best one in the lot, IMHO, an adaptation of “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring” by Bach.
Now the first 50 seconds is the original Bach, but then the composer/pianist Gabriela Montero begins a charming variation of the work.
Curious if it pleases you too.

AVE MARIA (Fantasia)
Tip: Stay focused for the next track, "Night on Bald Mountain"
Good memory of the genius of Walt Disney. In many ways these movies are more moving than the super high-res animations that are can only be used to laugh. Nice flashback.
Bkmk.
wish you could post that meme.
agree with you. Christianity doesn’t make Christians weak, only makes them more tolerant for a time.
Down in Cajun Land they have been inspired to help rebuild three
local churches that have recently been burned.
snip 4-16-2019
As hundreds of millions of dollars roll in to help rebuild the historic
Notre Dame Cathedral, people have been inspired to donate to rebuild
three churches in Louisiana that were intentionally burned down.
The intentionally set fires burned three historically black churches in
rural St. Landry Parish about 30 miles north of Lafayette St. Mary
Baptist Church on March 26, Greater Union Baptist Church on April 2 and
Mount Pleasant Baptist Church on April 4.
On Tuesday, fundraising efforts for the churches that started last week
had reached more than $150,000 of the $1.8 million needed. By Wednesday,
the GoFundMe campaign skyrocketed to more than $1.8 million and counting
officially reaching the fundraising goal. The push for the donations was
inspired by social media users spreading awareness of the campaign, in
the aftermath of the Notre Dame fire.

Christians should never take secular money in their offerings.
