On September 17, in 1180 A.D., poet, composer and nun Hildegard Von Bingen died. Hildegard created the word Viriditas to describe the intrinsic ability to heal of plants, people and God. The word derives from the Latin adjective viridis meaning green. I believe that Hildegard's profoundly poetic imagination would also have had in mind the Latin noun vir meaning man. My thoughts today on Hildegard's language lead me to think she thought of men as being green in a truly healing way. God Bless Hildegard Von Bingen.

I always seek to help any person I meet to get to heaven, trying to adapt my words to each person. Recently I found myself in a car with my car mechanic who does not frequent the Church, the Sacraments or prayer, as do the great majority of Italians today. I said to him: “Giampaolo, when your children were small, did you give them advice and guidance for their good or for their harm?” Giampaolo responded: “For their good”.

EUGENICS WAS USED BY HITLER TO ELIMINATE THE WEAK AND THE UNDESIRABLE RACES AND TO PROMOTE THE ARIAN RACE. Margaret Sanger worked with Hitler and then founded Planned Parenthood in the USA to diminish the population by promoting artificial birth control and abortion. It is interesting that even though the blacks or African Americans in the USA comprise only about 12% of the population, 40% of the abortions are done on black women who are targeted with many abortion clinics by Planned Parenthood in black neighborhoods. With the technology today, eugenics is now called TRANSHUMANISM, in which the rich super...

I distributed hundreds of copies of the following at the March for Life at Rome, on May 20, 2023. - - - - - - - Pastors, Protect Your Flock! Dear friends, As a priest, one of my most important jobs is to PROTECT the souls entrusted to me as a good pastor. In this period of the world, there are more dangers for souls and more confusion in the world and in the Catholic Church than ever before.

I find it rather interesting the recent great increase of the promotion of UFOs on the Web and on YouTube.

Neighbors, who reportedly knew of the family’s dire situation, chose to remain silent, echoing a troubling trend where individuals hesitate to report suspicious activities, like the San Bernardino Jihadists or the Ft. Hood Jihadi, for fear of being unjustly labeled as racist or Islamophobic by the media or authorities. In a shocking and disturbing incident recently, Australian police have rescued 14 children, including a baby, from an Islamic “house of horrors,” where the children were subjected to unimaginable abuse and neglect. This tragic story reveals a heartbreaking tale of isolation, cruelty, and courage, with the abuse occurring within a religious...

Why are individuals who claim to be peaceful Muslims not distancing themselves from Imam Husham Al-Husainy and his anti-American and dangerous rhetoric, but rather endorsing and promoting it? In a remarkable display of power, nearly 5,000 Shia Muslims gathered in Dearborn, Michigan, to commemorate the 40th day of Imam Husayn (A.S) in a significant religious observance known as Chehlum or Arbaeen. This event, which takes place 40 days after Ashura, commemorates the martyrdom of Imam Hussein ibn Ali, the grandson of Prophet Muhammad, during the Battle of Karbala. Dearborn, often referred to as the Arab capital of North America, has...

In the year 2000, Sun Microsystems cofounder Bill Joy wrote an essay provocatively titled “Why the Future Doesn’t Need Us.” Despite being published April 1, it was no joke; and despite its 11,000-word length, it would go viral. The reason why was encapsulated in its subhead. To wit:“Our most powerful 21st-century technologies — robotics, genetic engineering, and nanotech — are threatening to make humans an endangered species.”

At least 20 books are being removed from libraries in a Florida school district as the result of parents reading out loud objectionable passages from the books they deemed sexually explicit and inappropriate for children at a school board meeting. Fighting a nearly two-year battle with the Indian River County School District Board to remove 156 books from district schools, a local chapter of Moms For Liberty strategically took advantage of a new Florida law at Monday’s meeting. House Bill 1069 states that a school district must remove books immediately if the readings are shut down, objected to, or introduced...

Good morning all. I got a FReepmail from Metmom this morning asking that a prayer thread be started for her and her family due to a death in the family. As per her message: I got word this morning from my sister that my brother died last night. He called 911 in medical distress and when the paramedics got there they could not resuscitate him. We’ll be heading in to be with my sister in a day or so. My other brother will be with her and she has a great support network of friends. My sister is saved. The...

Anne Boleyn was a beautiful woman who died for an effectively polygamous man, Henry the VIIIth. In 1532, on September the first, he made Anne the Marquess of Pembroke in her own right. Henry created this title for her. These words attributed to her suggest she was very much a woman who was ready for a man: “Seduce me. Write letters to me. And poems, I love poems. Ravish me with your words. Seduce me.” Anne married Henry but when he did not have a son by her to be heir to his throne he had her executed. She spoke...

The Church’s morals didn’t change until Vatican II in the 1960s. Before that, you had nearly two thousand years of consistency. If you speak to neo-Catholics now, they will tell you that there was a great revelation in the 20th century, and they realized that morality is constantly in flux, and that basically, all the fundamental premises of the historic Church are wrong. The Pope has gone from promoting gay anal to now actively attacking the people pushing back on it. He must be feeling he’s in a good position, to move from encouraging gay sex to actively organizing anyone...

Chandra White-Cummings criticizes black leaders for saying the US was built "on the backs/blood" of African-Americans, but ignore how much individual gain nowadays is based on the blood of aborted babies. Religious (Christian) perspective included. She urges supporting policies that promote life. I don't know if she's perfect, but she seems cool to me and only has 1 subscriber. So I share. Hecklers get your jollies here but please don't be nasty on her channel.

“You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.” –Matthew 5:13 (NIV) This is not an easy world to live in. The challenges are great–in some ways, perhaps greater than they have ever been–at least psychologically and spiritually. All around us, people are “checking out” in one way or another. Many get lost in one form of escape or another. It can be obvious escapes like drugs and alcohol. Then there’s entertainment, which...

Do you know that Barack Obama opposed anal marriage during the 2012 election? Can you imagine getting from that to this in such a time frame? Honestly, I think the cellphones have a lot to do with it. People are handing over their brains to their cellphones. Life Site News: Catholic farmers can sell their fruits at a local market after a federal judge ordered East Lansing, Michigan to stop discriminating against the family for its opposition to homosexual “marriage.” Judge Paul Maloney ruled that the city discriminated against Steve and Bridget Tennes of Country Mill Farms (CMF) when it...

Score another victory for religious freedom! A federal judge issued a ruling in favor of a farmer in East Lansing, Michigan, who was excluded from a public farmer's market because of his Christian beliefs. It turns out that at least some government officials see that the city's rotten actions are violating civil liberties in the name of diversity.The conflict started in 2017 when the city's government decided that the biggest drama in the farmer's market wasn't the price of tomatoes but the fact that Stephen Tennes, owner of Country Mill Farms, has religious beliefs that the city deemed unacceptable. The...

Hunter Biden seemed inspired when he went to synagogue on Saturday. It may have been the subject matter; the president’s son was asked to pray for the nation, including a supplication for helping the system of justice. On August 12, Hunter attended sabbath prayers at Congregation Etz Chaim in Marietta, Georgia to celebrate the Bat Mitzvah (coming of age) Jayden Cohen, 13, the son of Melissa Biden’s brother Dalan. Despite not being Jewish, Hunter was called upon to read the traditional Jewish prayer for the nation. He wore a tallit (prayer shawl) and kippah (skull cap) for the occasion. “Our...
