“Black Lives Matter Exposed” – tied to international Communism, Palestinian terrorists, founded by Lesbian Marxists Posted on October 8, 2020 by Catholicism Pure & Simple H/t to Fr. John Zuhlsdorf What is “Black Lives Matter”?
“Seek and You Will Find Truth and Facts Prevail” Evil Destroys Itself! by Lawrence Morra I read this blog and watched the video very early today, but had to get back to it now due to circumstances. Beautifully done presentation of what the crux of the matter is with regard to all of the trouble in our cities and societies at large. Now we know that the inner sanctum of the Church is violated also, which coincides with the horrible condition of the US government that to me looks like chaos and on the verge of collapsing if the corruption continues. We know that Hillary Clinton, Soros, Obama and many other highly influential players have provided a glide slope into hell for this Nation “Of the People By the People and For the People” like nothing that’s ever been witnessed in its entire history! I knew we were looking at a much bigger problem when the radial “Squad” appeared on the scene and were wielding political influence in our National Government via Congress and being propped up by our evil MSM Democrat Party Machine that are working against, “We the People,” which is allowing some of the most vile and destructive forces to gain a foothold in our Republic, with one goal in mind; to destroy America the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave, these “United States as One Nation under “God” the Judeo-Christian God of the Bible!” This has all been work of the antichrist movement and implemented by means of the many minions running rampant on earth! As we look around in the world we can plainly see how the leftist agenda has defiled and desecrated so many wholesome chaste or normal values of everyday life that have been tried and tested over the ages; let alone Holy Scriptures and their sacred teachings from God Himself! I see before me a world of carnage and decadent sin; full of hate and evil atrocities toward what is good, stacking up to the clouds; perhaps now an amplified version of what Moses observed when he came back down to the people from Mount Zion (Sinai) with the Ten Commandments; as they worshiped the gilded or Golden Calf sinning like heathen banshees during the time Moses was away speaking with God! Exodus 24:16 “And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.” Isaiah 4:5 “Then the LORD will create over all of Mount Zion and over her assemblies a cloud of smoke by day and a glowing flame of fire by night. For over all the glory there will be a canopy.”
I’ve been inspired to reblog this excellent article presented by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf via this wonderful blog site, Catholicism Pure & Simple! God bless and keep you. Amen. Brother in Christ Jesus, Lawrence Morra
“The Prelude to the Extinction of a Political Party”
President Trump announced something on Tuesday that could completely shake up the 2020 election – and expose the Democrats for committing “the single greatest political crime in American history.”
Trump said he has “fully authorized the total Declassification of any & all documents” related to the Russia investigation and the FBI’s investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server.
“I have fully authorized the total Declassification of any & all documents pertaining to the single greatest political CRIME in American History, the Russia Hoax. Likewise, the Hillary Clinton Email Scandal. No redactions!” The president tweeted Tuesday night.
He later followed it up with another tweet saying he “can’t believe these con men are not yet being PROSECUTED.”
The announcement by the president follows the declassification of documents by Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe that revealed that former President Barrack Obama was briefed by then CIA Director John Brennan about a plan concocted by Hillary Clinton to tie Donald Trump to Russia as “a means of distracting the public from her use of a private email server” ahead of the 2016 presidential election.
“Today, at the direction of President Trump, I declassified additional documents relevant to ongoing Congressional oversight and investigative activities,” Ratcliffe said in a statement Tuesday.
The declassification of handwritten notes by Brennan taken after he briefed Obama was first reported, along with a CIA memo that revealed the Clinton scheme was referred to the FBI for potential investigative action.
A source familiar with the documents explained that Brennan’s handwritten notes were taken after briefing Obama on the matter.
“We’re getting additional insight into Russian activities from [REDACTED],” Brennan notes read. “CITE [summarizing] alleged approved by Hillary Clinton a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisers to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by the Russian security service,” Brennan’s notes read.
The notes state “on 28 of July.” In the margin, Brennan writes “POTUS,” but that section of the notes is redacted.
“Any evidence of collaboration between Trump campaign + Russia,” the notes read.
The remainder of the notes are redacted, except in the margins, which reads: “JC,” “Denis,” and “Susan,” likely referring to then-FBI Director James Comey, then-Obama chief of staff Denis McDonough and National Security Adviser Susan Rice.
Ratcliffe informed the committee last week that the Obama administration obtained Russian intelligence in July 2016 with allegations against Clinton, but cautioned that the intelligence community “does not know the accuracy of this allegation or the text to which the Russian intelligence analysis may reflect exaggeration or fabrication.”
According to Ratcliffe’s letter, the intelligence included the “alleged approval by Hillary Clinton on July 26, 2016, of a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisers to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by Russian security services.”
Nick Merrill, Clinton’s spokesperson, called the allegations “baseless b———t” last week.
Ratcliffe, meanwhile, released a statement pushing back on attempts by Clinton’s team and the media to suggest that he was advancing “Russian disinformation.”
“To be clear, this is not Russian disinformation and has not been assessed as such by the Intelligence Community,” Ratcliffe said in his statement. “I’ll be briefing Congress on the sensitive sources and methods by which it was obtained in the coming days.”
According to Fox News, a source familiar with the documents said on Tuesday that allegation was “not disinformation,” or it wouldn’t have resulted in a direct briefing for then President Obama.
“This is not Russian disinformation. Even Brennan knew, or he wouldn’t be briefing the president of the United States on it,” the source said. “There is a high threshold to orally brief the president of the United States and he clearly felt this met that threshold.”
Another source familiar with the documents told Fox News that “this information has been sought by hundreds of congressional requests for legitimate oversight purposes and was withheld for political spite—and the belief that they’d never get caught.”
The source added that the Brennan notes are significant because it is “their own words, written and memorialized in real time.”
Former FBI Director Comey, sitting before a Senate Judiciary Committee played dumb last week when asked about the referral to investigate Clinton based on the information received.
Comey stated that it didn’t “ring any bells.”
“You don’t remember getting an investigatory lead from the intelligence community? Sept. 7, 2016, U.S. intelligence officials forwarded an investigative referral to James Comey and Strzok regarding Clinton’s approval of a plan [about] Trump…as a means of distraction?” Senator Lindsey Graham asked Comey.
“That doesn’t ring any bells with me,” Comey said.
The Democrats corruption is worse than we could imagine and the cover-ups implicate some of our most powerful government institutions.
Time appears to be up for the Democrats, however, as – thanks to President Trump – the information exposing their heinous acts will finally be revealed and the American people will see everything the evil left wing party has done over the past few years in an attempt to reverse the results of a 2016 presidential election which they never thought they would lose.

I’d like to add a link here to a blog I posted July 4th that specified my interest and belief albeit in a comical way, that the other shoe as they say was going to drop and that this sort of action was fast approaching! Thank God That He isn’t only hearing our prayers but is answering them to bring justice to all the guilty traitors before they get the opportunity to destroy America! Amen.

“End Time Antichrist Movement”
by Lawrence Morra
In this supposed Pope I don’t see a peacemaker at all but instead a destructor, who seeks to lead astray more of the flock in an already tumultuous growing more chaotic world. The most prominent thing I see in all of this is Francis inserting himself into the political realm with nefarious world leaders who in concert are constructing the final or “End Time” atheistic antichrist movement, and by so doing they attempt in proxy or spirit, to crucify Jesus again as the ultimate blasphemy; in a world which has committed every filthy sin or transgression against God imaginable; going so far as murdering on an industrial scale the precious innocent unborn children of God; and then often times to even desecrate their bodies, some are even satanic ritualistic slayings! Francis leads the parade to hell!
All of the sincere genuine prayers of the faithful in unison with the saints and the “blessed mother Mary;” forestalls God’s wrath upon mankind in these final hours. Thus these prayers are providing a final window of opportunity for the salvation of all those who will turn away from sin, and, humbly seek God’s forgiveness; through the precious heart of the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ. Amen.
Lawrence Morra
In comments to LifeSite (see full statement below), Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò strongly criticizes different statements of the new papal encyclical on human fraternity,Fratelli Tutti, that seem to promote religious indifferentism (the idea that other religions are just as pleasing to God as the Catholic faith).
LifeSite reached out to the Italian prelate, asking him to comment on a few specific quotations from the new papal document that seem to indicate an attitude of religious indifferentism and a lack of zeal to convert others to Catholicism. LifeSite presented these quotations yesterday in an initialreport.
In commenting on some of the new papal statements, the prelate rejects Pope Francis’ claim that “we, the believers of the different religions, know that our witness to God benefits our societies.” Here, Pope Francis suggests that a religion…

Reblog of previous article “China orders Christians: Renounce God or we’ll cut off food and housing”
Back on June 29th I had done this reblog of this very important article which was both timely and profoundly shocking. Just this week on September 23rd I had for some reason opened this article on a computer and left it open with the image of Jim Caviezel portraying Jesus Christ in the epic film “The Passion of The Christ.” Very significant is the fact that the very next day on the 24th this article “A Conversation with Jim Caviezel” appeared on Word Press which I reblogged. I’ve written before about how dots are being connected in our lives by our faith in Jesus Christ all the time via the Holy Spirit of God, and I’m including the link to that blog article here as well. All of this is very timely and significant and worth praying about and meditating on; as the world is in a near state of outright calamity on so many fronts, and, our true salvation is with and through the Lord Jesus Christ. Here are the links to the blogs.

reblog: by Lawrence Morra “Tyrants Playing God”
So, now the CCP places itself, these intolerant tyrant atheists above God and declare themselves the God of the world and universe! These evil monsters are some of the most hideous vile human beings on the face of the earth and actually for them to be called human beings makes me actually want to puke! This is a wake-up call to anyone out there that has any illusions about what is going on with the Wuhan Corona Virus Plandemic-Pandemic, and the fact that The Biden family, Pelosi family along with many other top Dem leaders, but also including the RINO betrayer Mitt Romney; have been doing mega million behind the scenes backdoor deals with these monsters just like Bill Gates and his equally evil wife Melinda for more money and power. And, Biden calls himself a Catholic if that don’t beat all! Back when he was campaigning with Obama for their second term Biden yelled out to a massive crowd, “I have no problem with same sex marriage.” We also know he has no problem with full term day of delivery abortion! If anyone has a problem seeing that Biden’s outlandish hypocrisy, outright pandering and lying during his whole life long crooked politician career since back in the early seventies isn’t some kind of diabolical creature most likely now demonically possessed, then you would need as much help as he does, but, in his case I don’t even think the top exorcist in the world can save his immortal soul from damnation, just like Xi JinPing and the whole CCP as they have all blasphemed God Almighty and have chosen Satan over God, violating the First Commandment. The First Commandment states to us clearly not to accept a religion or philosophy that teaches that our life and well-being originate with or depend on anything other than the one true God.“I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me”(Exodus 20:2-3). There is no other power that rules over the heavens and the earth. “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment”(Matt 22:37-38). They are eternally doomed to the pits of hell! On the other side of this, China you must realize has never been our friend nor never will be since becoming a full blown Lenin/Marxist Communist totalitarian regime and being antichrist they are no doubt key players ushering in the antichrist which could very well be coming soon! Regardless of when, in the meantime we all have to pray and strive toward supporting our President Trump and his team who are our only earthly hope to pull out of this graveyard spiral that that this nation was forced into by the evil NWO Obama/Hillary Cartel Cabal. Soros a sworn enemy of America is licking his demonic chops hoping to not kick the bucket before he can see the collapse of America into ruin and chaos and I say we with the help of God Almighty are going to turn the table on that SOB and all the traitors long before this country implodes, we can make what seems impossible very possible, if we keep our faith in Jesus Christ strong while doing all we can to support our President who was sent to us by God as our hero in time of desperate need, and, we have to give him a second term to get America back on its solid Constitutional Republic foundation of one nation under God!

“Robotic hell-bent killing machines”
by Lawrence Morra
Take a look at what Xi Jinping and the CCP produced with now the approval of Bergoglio and as you look into the eyes and hearts of these highly trained possessed minions who are part of China’s military forces asking yourself where does such madness come from and I’m sure you will agree with me that these are not protecting forces, but, rather diabolical hell-bent destructive forces of evil which are not going to produce anything but unnecessary suffering just like their CCP leaders want to thrust upon the innocent of the world; as they will gladly fulfill Satan’s darkest desires. Bergoglio is totally aware that no great and God fearing nation of peoples would produce such robotic hell-bent killing machines; which are reminiscent of Hitler’s SS Nazis!
I’m so sorry to be witnessing what my eyes and ears are absolutely seeing and hearing! I’ve said for several years now that the current false pope is off the rails and on a rampage like some diabolical demonic ferocious beast; antichrist in his intentions. The current geopolitical circumstances around the globe with special attention on the Vatican, United Nations and the CCP make it now clearly evident to anyone with a clue that a conspiracy the likes of which this world has never seen before is taking shape and coalescing around outright blaspheming evil with Bergoglio and Xi Jinping at the center of this diabolical darkest of storms; receiving their directives from Satan himself. The faithful must remain steadfast and heroic unceasingly as the only power that matters and will bring about God’s will for this weary earth, is the power of prayer to our heavenly Father God Almighty through His Son our Lord, Savior and Redeemer Jesus Christ who will be coming again. Amen.
Seeking to find any coherence of the recent action of the Society of Jesus with the original intentions of Saint Ignatius of Loyola is an arduous if not impossible task, to the point that in hindsight one considers the reconstitution of the Order in 1814 after its suppression by Clement XIV in 1773 to have been ill-advised. It is not surprising that, in the process of dissolution and self-demolition to which the entire ecclesial body is subjected, the contribution of the Jesuits has been – and still remains – decisive. It is no coincidence that since 2013 even the highest throne has been occupied by a Jesuit, Jorge Mario Bergoglio, even though this is in violation of the Ignatian Rule that forbids members of the Society of Jesus…

Catholicism Pure & Simple Catholicism without compromise A Conversation with Jim Caviezel
I really like Jim Caviezel as a fantastic actor but more importantly I see him as a fine human being and servant of God. Jim isn’t a famous movie star who portrayed the greatest and only perfect human being to have ever walked on the face of this earth so masterfully because he wanted to be famous and remembered for this magnificent imitation of Christ Jesus in a movie; with the likes of another fantastic artist that I equally admire Mel Gibson; who himself was not deterred by all of the flak from Hollywood and other enemies of Christ who didn’t want Mel to succeed in producing The Passion of The Christ, which to me is the greatest film ever made; why else do I sob like a child each time I watch it.
But, as we know he did succeed and there is one reason; it was “the will of God” in heaven that both of these men succeeded in their work doing His will on earth at a time when the true story of Christ needed to be told in this way, because we are approaching the Latter Days or if I may be so bold to say, that the Second Coming is before us and close at hand, so anyone who wants to be saved had better make up his or her mind now. These two men who seem so iconic to many are truly blessed and chosen by God to be who they are, and accomplished such work all in accordance with God’s plan. Many religious scholars and figures weighed in upon the film’s release to mainly sing praises and to respect the accomplishment which I totally agreed with then and now, not just because I’m a Catholic born and raised like Mel and Jim; but, the more profound message to me from any theologian or critic about the film was from a man I admired and still do tremendously as being a Saint, because he actually is, Saint John Paul II, who not only appreciated the film and these men for their work in serving our Lord God, but, he gave the movie his blessing! Here is a statement from catholicleague.org published about it; “Critics of the Mel Gibson movie, “The Passion of the Christ,” are confounded. That’s because the pope has seen the film and has extended his blessings. “It is as it was,” Pope John Paul II said. Thus did he drive Mel’s adversaries into a tizzy.” So, my perception about the remarkable clearly inspired plan and purpose from above at work before and during the making of this historic masterpiece was self-evident to me and many others! But, I could also see the will of God at work in this event in a unique way having been a man who went to Hollywood thinking I should be a filmmaker/actor since my teen years, only to find that remarkably by my packing a few suitcases and driving there not knowing a soul, I sure enough was given an opportunity in short order to walk right into the studios where both Jim and Mel had worked, because again God’s will at work, and in my case, His will was that I would see firsthand what I needed to, giving me a special grace to know that direction wasn’t what God wanted for me, and was rather my own desires taking over; so I was to learn by God’s love for me that I should invest my time and life at that point in time, into my own family back East. I soon found out that if God wanted me to stay there and do something special for Him then I would have, but, I was given an epiphany that clearly pointed out it wasn’t for me and I decided just as fast as when I left home spontaneously at the crack of dawn one day, I just packed up and left it all behind just when some VIP’s took an interest in me and were ready to give me a leg up on starting a full-fledged movie career. So then, to me the point that is driven home here in this blog article is that just like in all walks of life there are those individuals that are doing God’s will and humbly serving His purpose and designs for our lives in their work, just like there are those self-serving type of people that think the world revolves around them and are on their own self-designed ego trips. This is why to me, it’s so good to see that Jim Caveizel is following his faith devoutly with his wife and children as he continues to be following God’s will in his work during this great unprecedented time of world conflict that obviously requires divine intervention soon! God bless you all and may you feel God calling you in your own hearts to be strong and follow His will for each of you; whatever that is. Amen.
Lawrence Morra
I must tell you that my reblog commentary was made before watching the interview with Jim. But, now later I want to say that he is right about it being time to be ready to take a stand for Jesus; in other words we must be willing to give up our lives as truly faithful in this judgment time before us, and, many will be martyred. I know this firsthand because of how I’ve been fighting the very agents of hell the Illuminati and others for some years now since being attacked by the system that is thoroughly corrupted as you should plainly see by now. Even a family member was ruined and eventually martyred by the corrupted system, his death occurring just when the attack on me began to intensify. I’m only alive right now because God wants it this way and I am willing to suffer or take anything this wicked corrupted world can or will dish out to me ahead; all for Jesus Christ my Lord, Savior and Redeemer; He is who I owe all to without any doubt; and, I’m so grateful to have this opportunity, my life by trial, to hopefully be with him in heaven. Amen. I added this paragraph nearly 5 hours after writing my reblog. I may have more to say later about all of this.
Raw. Provocative. Honest. Moving. This conversation with Jim Caviezel is one of the most fascinating interviews ever done. You may remember Jim for his iconic portrayal of Jesus in The Passion of the Christ or for his popular lead role in the CBS drama, Person of Interest. This week, his new movie, Infidel, releases.
Inspired by true events, the powerful movie explores the persecution of Christians in the Middle East. Don’t miss the last part of the interview. What he shares will blow you away. He specifically asked to share something with all of you that Hollywood would never allow him to do. Jim gives a powerful quote from President Regan that we MUST Stand Up for Christ, Live for Christ and most likely we will Die for Christ. We must set ourselves apart from this evil generation. We must be Saints and not be afraid! It is time to…
“Make No Mistake About It”
I just mentioned this situation to a family member the other day and this truth you point out here is to me like the old adage, “the straw that broke the camel’s back,” as final confirmation that the Pope who isn’t really a true Pope is derelict and completely out of control; now blaspheming God Almighty. The same Pope that just months ago said “Never try to convert non-believers!” Yet this false Pope makes an example of washing the feet of Muslims! “Make no mistake about it CCP serves Satan and the antichrist,” with now Francis being in bed with that brutal communist regime, is a surefire sign of the times along with being a precursor of Pope Francis’s standing out as the false prophet empowering the diabolical movement of ushering in the antichrist along with Islam the non-religion political man-made ideology for conquest of mankind, propelled by Satan initially via Muhammad which culminated in 632 A.D. just before his death with his supposed final talk with god who told him Islam is the only acceptable religion to God, and that all others who worship outside of Islam must convert or be put to death; which began the all-out war against Christendom! This is all now in unison, fitting to a “T” with the CCP objective of global dominance totalitarian control.
These are not strange bedfellows but are in fact like-minded agents of the same agenda and inspired by the same source of diabolical evil on earth. The facts and truth are plain to see in this evolving heretical disaster the likes of which has never been witnessed on earth, but, was prophesied in the Holy Scriptures, and, indeed the Book of Revelations which clearly describes this very time we are in now as being the Latter Days just before Christ’s Second Coming. Some might say I could be wrong, but, the facts and truth are self-evident now, and, there was never a time in man’s history where the type of technology needed was yet available to implement the diabolical forces of hell, to set up a totalitarian counterfeit One World Order Kingdom on earth until now, which is precisely what Prophecy tells us would be needed for the antichrist to make his appearance to mankind and claim that he is god.
This is a time were wanton lust; for money, power, sex, and materialism run rampant throughout the planet while intolerance and hatred increase exponentially along with sheer madness or stupidity. I was also talking with a family member about how not so many decades ago in general there were more people living with a kinder or gentler mindset toward each other, and, how most people we knew or met wouldn’t think of hurting or damaging another person’s life and reputation, especially for selfish material gain; behavior that decent human beings no doubt would certainty want to avoid such controversy and shameful attacks like the plague; but now a person will join with others conspiring to destroy an innocent person if given the opportunity, almost like a blood sport if there is money, political favor and attention to be had, and even doing such a thing just to spite another person because of sheer jealousy or contempt; in a law suit crazy culture. I see how the human race of course has always had some of this underlying sickness and horror, but, never to the levels or fever pitch it’s reaching now with the advent of global digital communication and mass media manipulation, by some of the most nefarious evil minded humans on earth, in league with people like George Soros, Xi Jinping or Bill Gates to name a few, who are without any doubt direct agents of hell; which is where they get their marching orders from.
I’ll stop here, but, could go on probably too long; and I’ll only say in closing I hope more of you who are aware will remain vigilant in our earthy battle to the end, along with passing your own insights along to others as you carry on in the name of Jesus Christ; always seeking to do “the will of our Father” in heaven. I’m leaving a slew of links to previously published blog postings in hope that contained in perhaps at least one; there will be a spark of inspiration for anyone who needs it to remain faithful while doing his or her best in seeking truth in order to do God’s will. God bless you. Amen.

At a time when much of the rest of the world is starting to wake up to the repression, mendacity, and dangers of the Chinese Communist Party regime, the Vatican is getting even deeper in bed with it. And at a time when that regime is intensifying repression of religion—including Catholics—in China, Pope Francis is renewing an accord with Beijing that has yielded no benefits yet save for President Xi Jinping and only disunity and suffering for the Catholic Church.
Two years ago, the Vatican signed a provisional agreement with Beijing, valid for two years. It had been a long time coming, and I and others tried to warn of the dangers before the deal was done. When it was announced, I expressed concerns—but also tried to give a pope whom I admire the benefit of the doubt.

“Sign of the Times and Prophecy Unfolding” by Lawrence Morra
Yes indeed; this concise well written article goes straight to the heart of the matter before us all, in a teetering civilization that seems on the brink, but, more importantly should go to the hearts of the Lord’s faithful who by their faith recognize the urgency of the situation of unprecedented corruption throughout; therefore we must pray that this epidemic trend whereby rule of law is disintegrating before our eyes in this present age of transgression and conflict on all levels of human endeavor; will be reversed before it’s too late. Over the last several months I’ve written in effect what I’ve observed like anyone else that is mindful how askew societal mores have slipped into a darkness drawing more people all the time into the web of sin or temptations that are wreaking havoc upon, religion, culture, governance and the sanctity of human life. The corruption being so widespread and rampant that we have politicians that pass legislation approving the utter destruction and infanticide of unborn human beings, children of God full term day of delivery and in some cases delivered.
We are truly looking at a civilization that is totally going out of control in my opinion, not far off now in terms of immorality from where ancient Mayans were before their civilization collapsed when they were sacrificing humans of any age for insane pagan evil superstitions. America has always been a blessed nation in many regards and a desired permanent destination for peoples all around the globe; because I know it was the nation that was blessed by God as One Nation under God being founded by good Christian men and women that made it perfectly clear this nation was in their humble thoughts being raised up by God Himself, and in order to sustain it would always need the supporting pillars of “Religion and Morality.” Both have been dissipating vastly across America and the result is what we see now; a governance that is nearly totally corrupted like some organized crime syndicate and churchgoers who are people of faith in Almighty God first and foremost making Him their bedrock of support as a people, knowing full well it is only God that provides all good things; have been leaving the Church in droves! Still while this is happening there are many others who are awakening to their absolute need for faith and are turning to Jesus Christ for help, which is a message of hope, because those who are faithful know it is God’s will that will be done on earth ultimately, and not the crooked ways of the world, the Devil’s way, which is the deadly spiritual poison that has infiltrated even the inner sanctum of the Holy Church. Here is a portion of what I said in a recent blog. “We are at the precipice no doubt; this is nearly full blown hell on earth!” “The world today has become way too fake and full of self-serving bigots and liars or outright meaningless gibberish behaviors like all of the video clips on net sites, or on TV, of young people doing stunts and making their pets or other farm animals behave for a video to accomplish what?” Is that meaningful entertainment? People don’t have better things to do? I say this because; I see a serious amount of regressive behavior in society at a time when we very much need the opposite! School systems have used dumb down as the preferred way. I had this to say beginning another blog I wrote back on May 12th about this present time being the Age of Hypocrites and Heathens. “It’s hard to believe it, as I never thought I would be living in the time to actually witness or suffer with so many others in a world that is seeking evil and destruction at an unprecedented rate that escalates by the year! Now there are actually many citizens around us that praise evil and hoist up the immoral in order to worship them and the evil one!” I had to say that in reference to how so many out of control partisans in Washington, D.C. and around America are putting a scoundrel like Joe Biden on a pedestal and want him to be the figurehead for their corrupt political machine, in order to further destroy America, and, I believe that the evil behind it would love this infection of utter debauchery being facilitated by absolute corrupt power to even destroy the entire human race. I went on to say in that blog the following, “Everything they do is in complete opposition to any degree or fragment of what Jesus taught; but rather they blaspheme God!
This doesn’t shake my faith and absolute resolve to “Fight the Good Fight.” “I hope and pray that more of you out there are wise and loving of your Creator than I could possibly imagine, and that you don’t want to allow this darkness to overshadow all of the good that still is out there in or on God’s beautiful earth; because if you do believe and stand tall to these adversaries showing good faith, which God will allow to serve as a penance, giving special graces to us to soften and reduce much of the suffering; that is on the way to destroy humanity once and for all! Please hear my plea and try your best to give up the things of this sick, corrupted sinful world and put all of your hopes and love in God, who loves you more than you can ever imagine, who is only seeking to ask you to remain by His side, in order to take you home to your eternal life with Him and all that is good; to be in peace, love, joy and happiness for eternity!”

VATICAN CITY — “I had no rights,” said Eugenio Hasler, a former lay official who worked at the highest levels of the Governorate of Vatican City State, the Vatican’s principal administrative office.
A respected official, dismissed in 2017 for no formal reason after a decade of service, Hasler was allegedly let go because he called attention to alleged corruption of his superior. He was summoned to the Pope’s Santa Marta residence where the Holy Father asked him several questions before dismissing him and awarding Hasler’s superior more responsibility the following day.
“In an absolute monarchy, unfortunately, what can be done?” Hasler told the Register.
Others have received similarly abrupt treatment, including the former papal physician, Patrizio Polisca, whom Pope Francisdismissedsuddenly and without reason in 2015, as well as three officials…
“Are people becoming GMO beings far removed and altered from the original genuine article?”
Look around and see how odd and crazy human civilization has become. Why is this happening? Is it just an accident and inevitable consequence of an evil out of control-controlled chaos, or could it be that forces which are invisible to our tactile senses are working unseen against us manipulating and altering our patterns of behavior and our very thinking processes. These unseen enemies; that toy with us day and night if we are weak or not focused on what the actual truth and reason for our being here actually is.
Are people becoming GMO beings far removed and altered from the original genuine article? Fake news, fake friendships and love, as people now are always taking and making sure they get what they want and not caring about what they don’t give.
Artificial has become a major component in the modern scheme of things now; as we the people that make artificial things are turning into artificial beings. Why are imperfect corrupted humans making artificial intelligence when we can’t even live well enough among ourselves or fix our own tragic defects; why would we even begin to think like a madman Bill Gates that we can build some intelligent being; and for what purpose to make the world more chaotic? Have we been working so diligently to find out why people don’t all get along, and love each other or how to fix that problem that is apparently inherent in us since Cain slew his own brother Abel? I’ll put myself at the plate swinging the bat and tell you exactly who wants us to do these things causing some to think we are so wise and capable enough to make some new intelligent beings that will be working within the digital cloud; Satan is the one and only reason or motivator in this story.
Films have brushed on this topic such as “Looker” a 1981 release which “draws parallels between time wastage, virtual comatose states, and the anesthetizing, stultifying effects of television.” James Coburn plays John Reston, the wealthy head of a conglomerate with a sinister scheme involving murder in “Looker” which really sounds just like today’s big tech firms and the sorts of creepy dudes like Bill Gates that run them! And this was before we could consider what the World Wide Web and computers or even hand held devises would do to our minds; as to what short and long term effects they would have, and here we are in the thick of it!
Subliminal effectuation of people’s minds or a kind of group hypnosis is a concept that’s been around for a long time and we could say that all forms of propaganda play into this methodology of altering the minds of populations in a sense a prodding them like cattle or sheep to move and go where the directors or controllers want them to. This is what’s been happening in societies around the globe in earnest for the last couple of decades a preparation if you will for New World Order making the masses totally subservient to the ruling class and stripping them of any real rights; be they Constitutional or human. One only look at the totalitarian state control of China with its Chinese Communist Party the sole governing political party of the People’s Republic of China had its origins in the May Fourth Movement of 1919, during which radical Western ideologies like Marxism and anarchism gained traction among Chinese intellectuals. Other influences stemming from the Bolshevik revolution and Marxist theory inspired the Communist Party of China. Li Dazhao was the first leading Chinese intellectual who publicly supported Leninism and world revolution or in other words world conquest and control.
But the major development in our time-frame now is the advent of digital technologies and artificial intelligence which has changed the playing field exponentially for the worst giving this ideology and its fabricators up till now unheard of or imagined capability of proliferation and dominance in an extremely rapidly changing global geopolitical forum that is changing radically and will build to an earth shattering crescendo in the very near future as the game plan is already in play and even here in the USA many internal operatives who are so called Americans and leaders are busy grooming the public for the transitional shift in policies and standards that will be make and break for everyone but mostly break for the masses and top of the mountain for all of the elitist globalist rulers. We can already see this evolving with outright criminal behavior on the part of our government leaders as they wheel and deal globally selling their political clout and power to influence among other leaders as they damn we the people to the dust and suffering to come while they enrich themselves and their family members or cronies becoming billionaire bloated pigs like the Pelosi family or Biden’s as just two examples amid a sea of corrupt politicians who really aren’t but are rather members of an elite legalized crime family syndicate. Make no mistake about it they are gangsters or racketeers and they never had your best interests in mind but only their own. This actually has become part and parcel the way of living in the old dog eat dog idea, as now our society is very ill and beyond life support to save it spiraling out of control toward the cataclysmic precipice to annihilation. Look around as you play on the world wide web, the spiders web that we are all affixed to now whether you want to admit it or not, you are being consumed with it every day and some people show clear signs of being predators looking to exploit others whether it be just to get likes or to actually rip them off and steal their advantages or following. Then turn to the fact of the riots and mayhem in major cities across the nation and see the mob chaos as an example just the other day in NYC a group of mostly people of color all gang jumped and beat the tar out of a tall white man in the middle of traffic on a street like they were all insects in a swarm like behavior trying to bite and sting their quarry into submission and kill him. These to me were brainless flesh beings or they had to be driven by some form of programming in their limited minds because the only other possibility is they are being influenced by invisible demonic forces from hell. Is this the beginning of the zombie apocalypse or the anarchy that the globalists are fueling and promoting in all the ways they can to bring on chaos to then usher in the massive crushing control by brute NAZI like force upon all of us not just locking-down for a pandemic, but, instead taking over our lives, as in now you’re a prisoner and you don’t do anything unless we tell you to!
Don’t you see that we are already there and it’s been a subtle take over and mastermind plot, but, it took this massive turn last winter and spring because those puppeteers who were metering out this propaganda control saw that a few smaller groups of powerful people like Trump and his allies said no way hold the phone this isn’t happening if we can’t take you down in court we will open the floodgate of anarchy, so both sides are now in a fever pitch confrontation which isn’t going to end pretty and either the good rises to the occasion and steps up to the plate to do what it takes to stop the devils or they will have us all by the balls in short order, you will hate your life then I assure you.
Many will want to die and will commit suicide it will be that unhappy and unbearable to take. There was a movie back in the 80’s Looker which revolved around some corporate and an added note here is we all know how devious big Pharma is with their massive brainwashing television adds; but these corporate characters that had a sinister mind control device in this story that with flashes of light had a hypnotic effect on the person it was directed at altering their perceptions and thinking. Today we have microwave energy beam technology which is just a different portion of the electromagnetic spectrum and not the visible light spectrum this “Looker device employed,” but, sending out signals to prepped individuals with sort of robotic digital data to control actions and behaviors is here now.
And, with all of the propaganda or even our foods being manipulated genetically and chemically to alter our brainwaves don’t you see how easy this plan of attack is and how we are all victims now and even potential zombies. The police and citizen violence that seems to pop up and get out of control couldn’t this be a planned manipulation to trigger hostilities and get the masses to do just what they did with the Floyd case who actually was a brute thug drug addict and criminal who got what he was asking for by living the way he did, “live by the sword die by he sword,” then in the scuffle he resisted the police pushing his luck and the cops are dealing with these characters day in and day out getting fed up and tired too putting their lives on the line to protect and even more ungrateful society each passing month, so it won’t take much to set off a massive firestorm with such a dry tinder box sort of condition where all that is needed is a spark and you have an inferno which is what happened and over what? One black man thug died, so that really warranted burning cities down and killing innocent people in the process; but, do people flip out and burn cities anytime you heard about, when full term human babies are snuffed out day of delivery? No; because that isn’t part of any nefarious program or plan by the puppeteers and you know it. Did Floyd, BLM, ANTIFA and all the citizens that were out of control after Floyd brought on his own demise, did any of them ever go screaming bloody murder or even having a so called peaceful protest when Full Term Day of Delivery Murder of unwanted human babies happens day in and day out? The answer you realize is unequivocally NO! None of those derelicts have a modicum of respect or pity for the little innocent babies; so I have ZERO for them as they are a damned lot and sentenced to damnation by their own voices or lack thereof, along with their obvious unjust actions, which they have condemned themselves by! They’re only interested in mayhem and power, while playing political agendas! By the way, another added sidebar note here is China is the biggest baby snuffer going and actually delivered ones, born but not males or having what’s seen as other defect, and, this kind of genocide of human babies to this degree hasn’t been seen since ancient times which actually pales in comparison; when for example during the time of Moses Pharaoh Ramesses of Egypt ordered all male newborn babies to be killed or King Herod the Great of Judea did, ordering that all babies two years of age or less be disposed of.
“The King Herod that is mentioned in the book of Matthew (Matthew 2) was made king of Judea by the Romans in 37 B.C. He died in 1 B.C. History is not very kind to Herod as it records many of his atrocities including the killing of babies. It is well established in secular writings that Herod murdered the old and young and did not even spare his wives. Herod murdered many people. He was a bloody man. Matthew 2:16 also reports he was a murderous man. Then when Herod saw that he had been tricked by the magi, he became very enraged, and sent and slew all the male children who were in Bethlehem and all its vicinity, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the magi. Matthew 2:16 (NASB)
Everett Ferguson is a reliable author who writes the following. Though it may be true that Herod was an extremely able ruler, it is also true that he was intensely jealous of his position. He killed the two sons of Mariamne when his suspicions were aroused that they might become the rallying point for Jewish patriotism. Mariamne herself was killed when his mind was poisoned against her by his sister. . . A man who killed a large part of his own family and arrested large numbers of the most prominent citizens with orders for their execution when he died so there would be mourning at his death (Josephus. Antiquities of the Jews. 17.6.5) . . . would not have caused much of a stir by liquidating a score of children in an obscure village. Knowing of Herod’s conduct and the Jewish scruples about pork, the emperor Augustus was reported to have said that he would rather be Herod’s very pig than Herod’s son. [1]
The Jewish historian Flavius Josephus describes King Herod the Great as a very evil man.
[Herod] commanded that all the principal men of the entire Jewish nation wheresoever they lived, should be called to him. Accordingly, there were a great number that came, because the whole nation was called, and all men heard of this call, and death was the penalty of such as should despise the epistles that were sent to call them. And now the king was in a wild rage against them all, the innocent as well as those that had afforded him ground for accusations; and when they were come, he ordered them all to be shut up in the hippodrome, and sent for his sister Salome, and her husband Alexas, and spoke thus to them: — “I shall die in a little time, so great are my pains; which death ought to be cheerfully borne, and to be welcomed by all men; but what principally troubles me is this, that I shall die without being lamented, and without such mourning as men usually expect at a king’s death.” For that he was not unacquainted with the temper of the Jews, that his death would be a thing very desirable, and exceedingly acceptable to them; because during his lifetime they were ready to revolt from him, and to abuse the donations he had dedicated to God: that it therefore was their business to resolve to afford him some alleviation of his great sorrows on this occasion; for that, if they do not refuse him their consent in what he desires, he shall have a great mourning at his funeral, and such as never any king had before him; for then the whole nation would mourn from their very soul, which otherwise would be done in sport and mockery only. He desired therefore that as soon as they see he hath given up the ghost, they shall place soldiers round the hippodrome, while they do not know that he is dead; and that they shall not declare his death to the multitude till this is done, but that they shall give orders to have those that are in custody shot with their darts; and that this slaughter of them all will cause that he shall not miss to rejoice on a double account; that as he is dying, they will make him secure that his will shall be executed in what he charges them to do; and that he shall have the honor of a memorable mourning at his funeral. [2]
These quotes help us understand that King Herod the Great was wicked. So we should not be surprised that a non-Christian wrote the following about Herod’s massacre of children under the age of two that is mentioned in Matthew 2:16. The non-Christian writer is Macrobius (A.D. 395-423).
On hearing that the son of Herod, king of the Jews, had been slain when Herod ordered that all boys in Syria under the age of two to be killed, Augustus said, “It’s better to be Herod’s pig, than his son” (dicta 56 Malc.)[3]
Conclusion:
We can thank God that there is a secular reference to Herod’s massacre of the children under the age of two. History does not record every event found in the Bible. In truth, we do not need secular history to validate the Bible. We often forget that the Bible is accurate history. But many people do not want to accept the Bible as history because they would then need to submit to its authority. It is the Word of God.” (neverthirsty.org/bible-qa/qa-archives)
All of which should give you a clue to what the world will be like under such totalitarian control when truly evil men rule over we people with total earthly power and control over we humans who are spurned by Satan who directly influences such antichrist blood thirsty men. And, if leaders or governments can do such things to babies who are innocent and pure what do you think the value of your life will be to them if they can’t use you for something, as say a slave or some guinea pig to experiment on; like the Hitler Nazis did during WWII? We are all being played with and screwed over, being prepped for a future of utter control and DEATH; the babies are the canaries in the mine shaft warning in this modern era; those innocent little martyrs that God tells us with His words in Holy Scriptures; how in the End Time many of the innocent will be Martyred!
Another film based on a great novel and even some actual past events is the Manchurian Candidate which again delves into, the realm of mind control and basically hypnotizing individuals and planting thought patterns or even actual orders in their subconscious minds to be acted out at a precise time and place, their marching orders if you will.
Making automatons out of human beings so they carry out an order to assassinate or blow up some building, and, even fly airplanes into buildings. All that is needed in this scenario is the kidnapping of these individuals whereby they are then carefully programmed, with today’s technology even having nanotechnology implanted in them before anyone knows they are missing and release them; to let them go through the motions of their daily lives like they don’t have a care in the world until that precise trigger moment comes when they act like some instinctual wild animal and the predator is released to carry out a deadly act, or even some political decision, and perhaps just adds the final vote to deploy troops or shut down the Nation declaring Martial Law, and then, totalitarian control is established overnight.
But, where is this going you may ask and it’s a pretty obvious destination once you look at man’s lack or the stumbling block that has continually tripped up the human race from the beginning. Where is the “humanity and love,” genuine unadulterated love, first of all for each other that has no strings attached and is unconditional; but, more importantly where is the love of God who gave us a chance to exist and be part of something that is unimaginable and so perfectly complete, full of joy, happiness, peace and tranquility forever. I wonder how many people actually think about this each and every day while simultaneously thanking God upon waking each new day for another opportunity to attain that most precious reward; saying it and meaning it. It looks to me like too many people aren’t doing that and whatever they are looking for it’s either the wrong thing, or they are certainly looking in all the wrong places.
What are we to do and can we do anything about all this? You bet your bottom dollar and the power to do it is right inside you! Save your soul and turn to God Almighty on humble bent-knee asking for His forgiveness and all powerful loving help! You see all these people star athletes, politicians and others these days taking a knee but they are antichrist and kneeling or submitting to an evil worldly power and prestige offering themselves up to perdition and damnation! We see the results of BLM and ANTIFA along with these take a knee fakers and takers like Kaepernick or mayor DeBlasio and Congresswoman Pelosi to name a few; nothing but ruin and hate, they are just self-glory mongers filled with evil as they serve the beast. If you resist all that and turn to Jesus Christ on your knees in all humility He is not going to let you down ever, you have to believe that! With Him you can face whatever will come. He awaits your answer! God bless you. Amen.
Here is what I had said back on March 10th regarding the developing global plan of totalitarianism.
This COVID-19 is less of a problem than the common influenza viruses or others that wreak havoc on populations every year, but, this is all a dress rehearsal of what is to come as the noose will be tightened around all of our necks moving forward. Strategies are being developed and implemented to bring us all to our knees as servants to the all-powerful and knowing State.(Antichrist) To me all of the pandemic aspects from its initiation through all the many mandates and dire consequences that have resulted has been a targeted plan to usher in totalitarian control upon global populations by a nefarious group of NWO strategists, all of which are Marxist to the core!
Jeremiah 17:5-13 English Standard Version (ESV)
5 Thus says the Lord:
“Cursed is the man who trusts in man
and makes flesh his strength,[a]
whose heart turns away from the Lord.
6 He is like a shrub in the desert,
and shall not see any good come.
He shall dwell in the parched places of the wilderness,
in an uninhabited salt land.
7 “Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord,
whose trust is the Lord.
8 He is like a tree planted by water,
that sends out its roots by the stream,
and does not fear when heat comes,
for its leaves remain green,
and is not anxious in the year of drought,
for it does not cease to bear fruit.”
9 The heart is deceitful above all things,
and desperately sick;
who can understand it?
10 “I the Lord search the heart
and test the mind,[b]
to give every man according to his ways,
according to the fruit of his deeds.”
Professor Jihad Bishara, director of the Infectious Disease Unit at Petah Tikva’s Beilinson Hospital, has stated that this Wuhan Virus or COVID-19 is not as bad as the common flu which is much more highly adaptable and intelligent than this current one that has the world going into lockdown mode, which is way over the top as a preventative measure. Remember, the Dems live and act like heathen self-serving godless people so with hardly any conscience to speak of they have no qualms with generating panic or hysteria if it will enhance their own bottom line which is always a corrupted one! People who become pathological liars do so because they have told so many lies they must continue to lie in order to cover the fact of their previous lies and not be found out.
“Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive!” (Sir Walter Scott, 1808).
“People can die from the coronavirus just like people die every year from the flu and other respiratory illnesses but that doesn’t mean everyone who gets it will die. As a matter of fact, most people will recover and move on with their lives just fine.”
“The mass panic and shutting down of society is truly way over done. It boggles the mind.” Jihad Bishara
Yet another highly renowned expert Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi with a proven track record over many decades said it well too. The virus expert who is one of the most cited research scientists in German history asserts that self-isolating the whole population is “grotesque, absurd and very dangerous”.
“All these measures are leading to self-destruction and collective suicide caused by fear.”
“This is the incredible tragedy, because all these adopted measures are actually senseless and meaningless.”
“The life expectancy of millions is now being shortened because of this. The horrifying impact on world economy threatens the existence of countless people.”
“The consequences on medical care are profound. Already services to patients who are in need are reduced, operations cancelled, medical practices empty, hospital personnel dwindling. All this will impact profoundly on our whole society.”
“Dr Sucharit Bhakdi is a specialist in microbiology. He was a professor at the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz and head of the Institute for Medical Microbiology and Hygiene and one of the most cited research scientists in German history.”
The Globalist agenda is what these men are referring to along with the activated mob or street terrorists now impaling our nation or attempting to dismantle it bit by bit! We can make no mistake about it; this is all Marxist in nature and intent; solely atheist and diabolical!
These activated mobs hell-bent and out of control fools don’t give an ounce of truthful thinking to what they are saying or doing and obviously don’t consider the facts. If the free world followed their prescription for some dreamed Utopia as for example; back during WWII it all would have gone to the devils and most of Europe would have been living under the mad man Hitler as their Führer! And the communist regimes in South East Asia fueled by “the world’s largest communist powers, the Soviet Union and the People’s Republic of China, both lent material and support to North Vietnam. In doing so, they hoped to consolidate and expand communism in the Asian hemisphere, bog the United States down in a long, expensive conflict abroad and thus gain an advantage in the Cold War.” Leading to nuclear weapons proliferation and supremacy then world dominance as the master evil plan!
But now these maligned individuals would rather have had people ruled under the Marxist leader Pol Pot,” the Khmer Rouge tried to take Cambodia back to the Middle Ages, forcing millions of people from the cities to work on communal farms in the countryside.” Under his brutal regime the bodies stacked up to the tops of trees!!! Under that monster and the many others like him fueled by the communists of the USSR and China he crushed the people and freedom was nonexistent; only total control and death prevailed!
Pol Pot led one of the most brutal regimes that have ever existed in the human history. “He killed over a quarter the total of Cambodian’s population. If Vietnam had not helped us to overthrow Pol Pot, then many things could happen to Cambodia”.
So now we see these free Americas bashing the United States, which saved many a nation from monsters like Hitler and the SS who had France and Italy in its clutches during WWII, and no US Military ever did what the communists and Nazis did slaughtering their own people or who they deemed undesirables by the millions like Josef Stalin did in Russia and Pol Pot in Cambodia!
People like the brutal Chinese Commie leader Ho Chi Minh and Pol Pot would have played right into the game plan for an entire Asian Continent to be ruled by brutal atheist Communism!
The Washington political arena is no better with so many of its wealthy swamp creatures having their way for decades!Biden has been the epitome of the crooked, career liar politician his whole adult life, what we call in these parts a real greaser and dirt bag snake, that has all the wealth he possesses from back door deals and nefarious Burisma or other such kickback money laundering deals where he used his elected office to enrich himself and family members. Then he says he has no problem with same sex marriage or full and late term abortion but calls himself a Catholic! The man is a walking lie and minion of evil or the most corrupt of politicians showing no moral integrity! He goes around kissing his granddaughter like some sex fiend on her lips and sticks his nose in the hair of multiple women over the years right in public, in front of the world like he couldn’t care less what anyone thinks! The man has no conscience; and I have many photos of Biden losing his cool and blowing a head gasket in public screaming at people with veins popping out of his temples or neck demonstrating that he is over the top bonkers; and yet these progressives and the Dem party think he is cool for being a POTUS! Biden was VP for eight long, dark, miserable destructive years! And on the opposite side, Trump a Christian has a man raised a genuine real Catholic VP of moral integrity with sound character Michael Pence. Trump has a beautiful family none of which are lazy dirty dealing snakes like Hunter Biden a chip off the old block.
Criminal traitor terrorists are running rampant trying to destroy the order and decent society we’ve built over the centuries to be replaced by communism. If that happens then the real suffering will begin and those that enabled its creation will then find out how they are so expendable and not going to shout, riot or make any overtures ever again; if they don’t want to be slaughtered!
We now have American universities that rather than being institutions of high esteem and higher learning they have morphed into leftist guerilla indoctrination training camps where young minds are warped, poisoned and led astray to madness and destruction; and one only need examine the likes of an AOC to see what fruit all of this so called progressive thinking will bear within the younger generations and societies at large! What follows is part of a fine article I want to share by the conservative journal.
“This fall at Washington and Lee University (removal of Lee pending), students will learn reading writing, arithmetic — and “How to Overthrow the State.” As antifa riots continue in Portland for almost 100 nights, students at the Virginia university named after George Washington and Robert E. Lee* will study Marxist revolutions in the Global South complete with role-play regime change.”
“Students engage these texts by participating in a variety of writing exercises, such as producing a Manifesto, drafting a white paper that critically analyzes a particular issue, and writing a persuasive essay on rewriting history and confronting memory.”
*Washington and Lee University faculty voted overwhelmingly in favor of striking Confederate General Robert E. Lee’s name from the university’s name, but only a majority of the institution’s trustees has the power to actually change the name, and the trustees have not voted on it, yet. One faculty member, an associate professor of law, Brandon Hasbrouck, suggested that the university should also consider removing Washington’s name.
Conservatives are not exactly thrilled…
Conservatives, who are already rightly worried about academia undermining American patriotism and teaching Marxism, naturally condemned the Washington and Lee course.
“Washington and Lee University’s course on ‘how to overthrow the state’ is one further sign of the insanity taking over higher education,” former House Speaker Newt Gingrich tweeted. “The alumni should rise up and show how to overthrow a crazy college administration.”
“This is disgraceful,” Turning Point USA Founder Charlie Kirk told Breitbart News. “We must stop brushing aside these egregious examples of campus craziness as isolated incidents.”
“The lessons of the past few months prove that these ideas don’t stay on campus, they spill out onto the streets,” Kirk warned. “This is a prime example of the intellectual rot that has infected the academy in America. The Trump administration should investigate and determine if this is the type of scholarship federal funds should be used to subsidize.”
The next generation of 1619 Project
Washington and Lee students will take a crack at “rewriting history,” just like The New York Times‘ “1619 Project.” That effort in Marxist critical theory preaches that various aspects of American society, such as capitalism, are oppressive and racist. Indeed, the Smithsonian briefly taught that even things like science, the nuclear family, the Judeo-Christian tradition, and politeness itself are oppressive aspects of a “whiteness” culture.
Portland activist Lilith Sinclair showed how Marxist critical theory pushes aimless revolution. “There’s still a lot of work to undo the harm of colonized thought that has been pushed onto Black and indigenous communities,” she said. As examples of “colonized thought,” she mentioned Christianity and the “gender binary.” She said she organizes for “the abolition of … the “United States as we know it.”
When vandals toppled a statue of George Washington in Portland, they spray-painted “1619” on the statue. When Claremont’s Charles Kesler wrote in The New York Post “Call them the 1619 riots,” 1619 Project Founder Nikole Hannah-Jones responded (in a since-deleted tweet) that “it would be an honor” to claim responsibility for the destructive riots. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) called for the “dismantling” of America’s “economy and political system,” in order to root out supposed racist oppression.
Left-leaning journalists and Democrats have insisted, over and over again, that the riots are “mostly peaceful protests.” Yet the riots have destroyed black lives, black livelihoods, and black monuments. At least 22 Americans have died in the riots, most of them black. conservativesjournal

CP&S comment – We highly recommend the reading of this article from CATHOLIC WORLD REPORT. It should act as a real eye-opener for any Catholic who might be harbouring positive ideas about Karl Marx and his social doctrine.
“Author Paul Kengor’s presentation of Karl Marx as the total slime and deep racist that he was [is sonething that] amused me, given BLM’s attachment to Marxism!” (Father Z)
————–
“Those who say that Karl Marx,” states Dr. Paul Kengor, author of The Devil and Karl Marx, “was somehow doing Christian social justice or some such nonsense make fools of themselves.”

In 1999, Harvard University Press published The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression, revealing a “tragedy of planetary dimensions.” It documented the untold atrocities of communism and all the people whose lives and livelihood were crushed by the dictatorship of the proletariat from Stalin’s gulag, to the Chinese Cultural Revolution, to the dictatorships of the proletariat established all over Eastern-Central Europe. Any serious reader of The Black Book of Communism would never buy into the evil of communism: the oppression, the culture of death, and the class struggle the system generated. One would expect that “the door to Utopia” of socialism and communism would have effectively closed for good.
But this did not happen: the idea of the socialist and communist utopia has made a comeback. In a recent book entitled The Devil and Karl Marx: Communism’s Long March of Death, Deception, and Infiltration, Dr. Paul Kengor, professor of political science at Grove City College and senior director and chief academic fellow at the college’s Institute for Faith and Freedom, provides a sophisticated and well-documented analysis of communism by going to the source: Karl Marx. Dr. Kengor recently corresponded about his book and the demonic forces at work in the life and thought of Marx.
CWR: According to a 2020 Gallup poll, 45% of Americans say they would vote for a socialist for president. This is a considerable number and socialist views have been making a steady comeback after the fall of the Iron Curtain in 1989. Did the comeback of socialism urge you to publish the book?
Paul Kengor: It has prompted me to write many books on the subject, and countless articles. This is a pattern I’ve watched develop for 30 years, following the collapse of the Berlin Wall.
For about 20 years I’ve traveled around the country giving talks on campuses with titles like, “Why Communism Is Bad,” sponsored by the likes of the wonderful Young America’s Foundation. I’ve watched and warned that the post-Cold War generation was not learning the lessons of the Cold War and of the destruction of communism and socialism and this latest twaddle that bills itself as “democratic socialism.” I’ve observed the numbers climb yearly in support of these ridiculous philosophies, and I’ve pleaded with people (especially parents, and particularly Catholic-Christian parents) not to send their kids to these awful secular universities. They didn’t listen. Now, we have an entire generation of young people born after the Berlin Wall (Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was literally an infant when the Berlin Wall fell) who have been completely miseducated about the horrors of Marxism and socialism.
They’ve learned little to nothing about how bad Marxism and Marx were. And now we’re paying the price.
CWR: There are philosophers (Umberto Galimberti, for example) who still maintain that Marx was a great Christian because for him the past was social injustice, the present made the contradictions of capitalism explode, and justice will be established only in the future. Is this the case, according to your findings?
Paul Kengor: Those who make that claim exhibit profound ignorance. Frankly, it is shocking, truly hard to believe. It is flatly and factually incorrect and utterly and wholly indefensible. Marx, Engels, Lenin, Trotsky, Bukharin, and the founders of the American Communist Party would disagree with them. And obviously, the Roman Catholic Church would disagree with them. If they’d like, they can grab a highlighter and start highlighting passage after passage and quote after quote in my book underlining examples.
Here’s one:
“Communism begins where atheism begins,” said Karl Marx. Of Christianity, Marx added: “The social principles of Christianity preach cowardice, self-contempt, abasement, submission, humility. The social principles of Christianity are hypocritical…. So much for the social principles of Christianity.”
The Roman Catholic Church condemned communism as a “satanic scourge” conceived by “the sons of darkness.” Of socialism, in 1931 Pope Pius XI issued his seminal Quadragesimo Anno, where he stated: “Religious socialism, Christian socialism, are contradictory terms; no one can be at the same time a good Catholic and a true socialist.”
Even Dorothy Day’s The Catholic Worker insisted: “no true Catholic can be a member of the Communist Party.”
I could go on and on. Those who say that Karl Marx was somehow doing Christian social justice or some such nonsense make fools of themselves.
One of the worst articles I’ve ever seen in the Catholic press was a piece published by the Jesuit America Magazine in the summer of 2019, titled “The Catholic Case for Communism.” I was aghast. Marx and Engels and Lenin would have been aghast as well.
CWR: Why do you think we hear so little about the atrocities of communism?
Paul Kengor: Very simple: Because the political left, which dominates education and especially our universities, does not focus on it. It’s not that typical liberal professors are pro-communist, but, as the late Richard Pipes liked to note, they are anti-anti-communist. They would prefer to condemn anti-communists rather than condemn pro-communists. Communism just doesn’t register very loudly on their outrage meter.
They will scream until they’re blue in the face about gender theory, queer theory, critical theory, “intersectionality,” you name it. But they simply don’t get worked up about the crimes of communism. Besides, in their view, the communists had many “good” intentions.
CWR: For Marx and Marxists, nothing matters but the material world as revealed in the present. Religion is to be eradicated, because it debilitates and opiates the proletariat. Why was Marx so against religion?
Paul Kengor: Marx understood that to initiate the revolution, the Judeo-Christian foundation needed to be razed. The house needed to be burnt to the ground.
In their really important work, The German Ideology, Marx and Engels said that in order to achieve “the success of the cause … it is necessary that man himself should suffer a massive change.” This change must come through “a revolution,” a process of “overthrowing” the old “filthy yoke.” His “generation,” like the Jews whom Moses led out of the wilderness, must “conquer a new world” and “must also perish in order to make room for the people who are fit for a new world.”
But to get there, they had to take down the Judeo-Christian foundation: not just Christianity, but Judaism. “The Israelite faith is repulsive to me,” said Marx. It’s quite telling that in his essay declaring religion “the opium of the people,” Marx said that “the criticism of religion is the beginning of all criticism.” Marx had a favorite quote from Goethe’s Faust: “Everything that exists deserves to perish.” In a letter to Arnold Ruge he called for the “ruthless criticism of all that exists.”
Beyond ruthless criticism, there was ruthless abolition. The word “abolition” is omnipresent throughout Marx’s writings. As his biographer Robert Payne noted, the word almost seems to jump off every page of the Manifesto.
Marx wanted to burn down the house.
CWR: There is an even darker side of Marx: he was obsessed with the demonic, as expressed in his early poetry. Some scholars have suggested that Marx was possessed by demons. The man who wrote about the specter of communism that was haunting Europe wrote about the specters and monsters haunting him. Can you explain why the demonic side of Marx has been kept secret?
Paul Kengor: I deal with that very carefully, and why Marx’s hagiographers have studiously avoided it. I do not hazard to assess whether Marx was, say, possessed, though others have. “There were times when Marx seemed to be possessed by demons,” recorded Robert Payne in his seminal 1968 biography of Marx—probably the best and most insightful biography of Marx. Payne, a man of arts and literature, not a right-winger, and a respected academic not expected to level such a shocking charge lightly, asserted of Marx: “He had the devil’s view of the world, and the devil’s malignity. Sometimes he seemed to know that he was accomplishing works of evil.” Read my book and you’ll get an exhaustive walk through all of that ugliness. It isn’t pretty.
CWR: The situation in Marx’s household was desperate, to say the least. His wife wished that she and her children were safely in their graves, as their lives on earth were hell. Why? Marx’s sexual relationship with the nursemaid, whom he exploited ruthlessly and never paid for her services, included fulfilling his sexual appetite when his wife was ill. This nursemaid was Marx’s contact with the working class, providing free labor and free sex. Was Marx showcasing what socialism had in store for the working class?
Paul Kengor: I believe so. Karl had a sexual relationship with the young nursemaid, Helene Demuth, known as “Lenchen.” Actually, it isn’t quite right to say that Lenchen worked for the Marx family, given that she toiled without pay, almost as Karl’s chattel. The champion of the proletariat never paid Lenchen a penny.
Karl, who refused to bathe, groom, and suffered from boils all over his body (including his penis), bedded Lenchen behind his wife Jenny’s back. Some biographers have pondered whether this was consensual. Either way, in June 1851, Lenchen gave birth. Marx, being the kind of man he was, never acknowledged the little boy, nor paid a penny of child support. He left all of that to Engels, his chief sap, subsidizer, and sugar-daddy.
Karl’s long-suffering wife was crushed. He already put the poor woman through hell via his refusal to work.
CWR: Marx denied his daughters an education and careers. He looked down upon women. The situation in Marx’s household was so toxic that two of his daughters committed suicide. Was Marx showcasing what socialism had in store for women?
Paul Kengor: I find this so ironic. And feminist Marxists totally ignore it. He lamented to Engels: “My wife, alas, delivered a girl and not a boy.” He later lamented to one of his daughters, who likewise gave birth to a girl: “I congratulate you on the happy delivery…. I prefer the ‘male’ sex among children who will be born at this turning point in history.”
Marx’s daughters lived lives of hopelessness and despair. In fact, four of Marx’s six children died before he did. Marx’s two surviving daughters committed suicide in joint suicide pacts with their husbands. Imagine that. Oh, and Marx wrote about suicide pacts in his devilish poetry.
CWR: Marx is considered to be a racist and anti-Semite. His ugly statements against blacks and Jews are notorious. He denigrated his son-in-law, Paul Lafargue, of Cuban origin, as “Negrillo” and called him a “Gorilla.” Why did Marx despise blacks and Jews when, in fact, he and his family were of Jewish origin converted to Christianity? Why the self-hate?
Paul Kengor: Here’s a quick pop quiz for you: Who said this? “This union of Jew and German on a Negro base was bound to produce an extraordinary hybrid.” Or this: “[He] has the blemish customarily found in the negro tribe—no sense of shame, by which I mean shame about making a fool of oneself.” Answer: No, not the grand wizard of the KKK, but Karl Marx. He was wickedly racist.
Another pop quiz. Who said this? “The emancipation of the Jews, in the final analysis, is the emancipation of mankind from Judaism.” No, not Hitler. Karl Marx.
In his seminal edited volume on Karl Marx and religion, Saul Padover said that Marx represented “what the Germans call Selbsthass(self-hate), a trait which Karl Marx displayed throughout his whole life.”
I recently wrote an article asking why our wondrous progressives in the cancel culture haven’t canceled Karl Marx. He was a bigot, a racist, an anti-Semite, and a sexist. Why does Marx get a pass? Answer: because the left likes him.
CWR: Why was the Roman Catholic Church so vehemently against communism, opposing this lethal ideology, even before the publication of the Communist Manifesto in 1848? How did communist ideology infiltrate into Roman Catholic seminaries?
Paul Kengor: This is a major part of the book, and perhaps one of the most halting sections of the book for churchgoing Christians. Part 4 is called “Infiltration and Manipulation.” It includes six chapters on the very deliberate and cynical infiltration of churches by communists in the United States, Western and Eastern Europe, and the Soviet Union. Communists had striking success with the penetration of the mainline Protestant denominations, particularly the Episcopal Church, the United Methodist Church, and what became Presbyterian Church USA.
Emboldened by those successes, communists then went after the Roman Catholic Church in the 1930s, specifically via Communist Party USA’s so-called “outstretched hand” effort. I publish a 1937 secret memo from Communist Party USA (it was held in the Soviet Comintern Archives on CPUSA) in which the comrades in New York City salivated like Pavlov’s dogs over the numbers before them: 18 million Catholics in America, and 80,000 simply between New York’s 110thStreet and 59th Street. At the height of its membership, the Party never had more than (at best) 100,000 members. American communists figured that if they could pick up even one percent of American Catholics, they would explode their membership rolls and could dramatically undermine parishes from within.
Most troubling, there was an attempt to infiltrate Catholic seminaries. This has been reported over the years (very sloppily so) regarding the organizing efforts of ex-communist and Catholic convert Bella Dodd, who, it has been claimed, attempted to place “over a thousand communist men” in Catholic seminaries. I walk through those claims very carefully. Did she really say that? How might that have been accomplished? Was she capable? Was that even feasible? And, if so, what has been the impact?
Alas, for those answers, you’ll have to get the book!
