Faithful Catholics Publicly Pray The Rosary In Front Of Satanic Gathering

This past weekend members of a satanic temple held their first-ever convention at the Marriott Copley Place in Boston Massachusetts.  The organizers claim not to believe in Satan, but still they held satanic rituals.  A bit self-contradictory, wouldn't you say?  At any rate, you may be sure that there were blasphemies and sacrileges galore.  They boasted workshops on how to turn abortions into satanic rituals (that happens more often than we care to admit), "unbaptism ceremonies" and more.

While the Archdiocese of Boston at least acknowledged the problem and suggested Holy Hours and Eucharistic Adorations in its churches, they discouraged physical presence of Catholics - all not to draw attention to the event, you see?  Whom do they think they are kidding?  While they at least did something instead of look the other way and pretend there was no problem, still they displayed lack of spine.

Thankfully the American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property, with its TFP Student Action affiliate, were not wont to remain silent and absent in the face of evil.  They were out in force with members from all over the nation.  Over the years, I have had the honor of standing beside them as we protested and prayed against diverse manners of outrages and blasphemies against the Church.  Watch the clip below and understand that everyone must be ready to take a public stand and to not content ourselves with the relatively safe confines of our church halls.

A Sober Look At The Rosary Weapon Screed

Fellow faithful Catholics, we've had our grins and chuckles since that article appeared in the Atlantic, but I think it's time to understand what's going on here.  In reality, this portends future dangers if we don't take this, and larger problems, seriously.

It seems that every time some tyrannical regime tries to ascend in power, they decide to target a demographic group to act as scapegoat.  The scapegoat group is often a minority group within the locality in which it finds itself.  The tyrants use the scapegoats as a rallying target at which most, if not all, the other groupings can unleash their mob-like hatred.  Of course the tyrants are mistakenly perceived to be champions, having duped the populace at large to target the scapegoats.

We saw this play out in the French Revolution, as bloodthirsty mobs lopped off the heads of their hated aristocrats and yes, Catholic clergy and religious.  Just a scant 85 years ago, Adolf Hitler riled the Nazis against Jews, eliminating 6 million of them (along with other "non-Aryans") before the end of World War II.

Would-be tyrants of our current times are now drawing bulls-eyes on the backs of their chosen targets - Catholics who are faithful to the traditions of the teachings of Jesus Christ that have been taught for centuries.  I think we saw that play out quite a bit after the Dobbs ruling was leaked, with the vandalism and even destruction of churches and pro-life pregnancy centers.  Some of those were operated by protestant, but by and large, it was Catholic institutions that were targeted.  They still are being targeted.

Now we see the bigotry being played out in once-reputable publications.  Yesterday the Atlantic magazine published an anti-Catholic screed entitled "How Extremist Gun Culture Is Trying To Co-Opt The Rosary".   The author, Daniel Panneton, is a Canadian who rails against "homophobia", "masculinist anxieties", "the hostility towards liberalism and secularism inherent in traditional Catholicism" and "far right fantasizing about killing activists".  Meanwhile, I detected nary a peep about all the destruction and vandalism against Catholic institutions of late, let alone the threats uttered by "Jane's Revenge".  Certainly he said nothing about the attempt on Justice Kavanaugh's life.

Frankly, I'd expect something like this coming from academia in Canada.  What concerns me is why Atlantic would choose to publish this.  Bear in mind that Nazi hatred against Jews began rather innocuously, with the publication of propaganda such as Panneton's article.  What the Nazis, and now Panneton, used was one of Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals", the 13th rule to be precise.  I quote: "Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)"

Panneton's article isn't just an isolated screed by one lone nutcase.  Look at it in historical context, even if that history is just in the last month.  I am somewhat dismayed by the cavalier and jocular attitudes that I am seeing among faithful Catholics.  Yes, the Rosary is powerful against evil, but we must not take pleasure in the attempts to demonize us.  If we as Americans fail to use our rights to insist that we not be the targets of religious bigotry, then we will see ourselves and our children consigned to social and even literal ghettos as it becomes increasingly dangerous to live our Faith and bring others to it.  Yes, I know that Christians in the very nascent Church did that, but they had no choice.  We do.  Will we fritter that away while we shoot off silly memes that actually affirm Panneton's statements?

What I suggested on Facebook is that we go to Atlantic's page and report the article as hate speech, for that is what it is.  Write a "letter to the editor" at theatlantic.com.  Fellow Catholics, please don't just engage in guffaws and bravado amongst yourselves.  Below is my letter to the Atlantic.

I am saddened that in this day and age a publication of your caliber would stoop to publishing such slanderous screed.  To portray Catholics faithful to their centuries-old traditions as "violent", "racist" and "paving the way for terrorist attacks" is nothing short of religious bigotry.  Indeed, it smacks of the propaganda that Nazis published against Jews as they were ramping up their attempts to marginalize and ultimately imprison and execute millions of them.  It wasn't long after those publications that the infamous Krystalnacht happened.  Now Catholics too are seeing their churches and buildings burnt and vandalized, with great escalation after the Dobbs ruling was leaked.

Would you publish any other such diatribe against Muslims?  Jews?  Hindus or other faiths?  Somehow I think not.  Why then would you publish such trash against Catholics?  Decent people demand an answer, and a repudiation of that article in your next issue.  Thank you for your time.

Please act now and be praying those Rosaries.

Dec 13th Jericho March

The #JerichoMarch #StopTheSteal rally in DC happened Saturday, Dec 12, Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe.  Most of the activities, including the three concurrent marches, happened in the morning.  Because I was at my usual spot in front of a local abortion mill, I was not able to make those events. 

After I finished my time at the mill, I took the Metro to the Smithsonian stop.  I had an inkling that I had missed most of the events since I saw Trump supporters on the Metro who were leaving the area.  I saw more of them departing as I left the stop - but several thousands still remained.  The picture to the right, from the facebook page of a friend of mine, shows the crowds on the mall during the earlier hours.

I passed by a rally going on in front of the Smithsonian and proceeded to the Capitol and the Supreme Court building, where I knew Jericho Marches had occurred.  Several thousands still lingered.  As I arrived, so did two progressive hecklers on bikes.  One of them had some kind of recorder strapped to her back that was playing loudly the words "f*** Trump".  That's all it said.  The other carried some little cardboard sign that didn't say much of anything.  They were promptly contradicted by Trump supporters.  One of them told the hecklers that he respected their right to be there.  Indeed, the hecklers must have known that such would have been the mindset of us all.  Others of their ilk don't extend to us the same courtesy: more on that later.

Here's some amusing "street theater", in the person of the man in the skeleton costume.  The sad thing is that there are many progressives who did precisely that during the election, and probably cast more than nine votes.

As I was leaving and headed towards Union Station, I spotted DC police at the intersection of Constitution and First getting into riot gear.  This was in the area where the antifa person attacked a Trump supporter at the rally last month.  They were clearly anticipating trouble.  Several hours later, trouble did happen at McPherson Square, where antifa thugs stabbed four Trump supporters.

I saw one very important display in front of the Supreme Court, below.  These ladies have the right idea in calling to mind Our Lady of Fatima and her requests.

The fight for our nation, and by extension western civilization, is far from over.  Above all, our Rosaries and prayers are needed.

If You Aren't Praying For President Trump, Start Doing So Now!

No one can doubt that President Trump is acting to reverse much of the damage caused by Barack HUSSEIN Obama, aka the Messiah Most Miserable.  While some #nevertrump folks persist in their denial of that fact, be assured that progressive types aren't.  Why else would there have been riots and lootings in the streets in the wake of his election?

Now comes the news that various witches and wiccans are preparing to cast spells to curse President Trump and his allies.  This exercise will occur tonight.  Ladies and gentlemen, this is no joke.  Demons are very real.  They are being invoked tonight to harm good people in this country.  The casting of spells is a very real spiritual danger not only to those who cast them, but those whom they target.

All this highlights our solemn duty to be praying for God's protection on our leaders, fellow citizens and our nation.  Of course we also include the witches who will be flirting with eternal damnation tonight, for their repentance and salvation.

If you aren't offering daily Rosaries, please start today and include our national leaders in your intentions.  I understand that a prayer campaign is underway to pray the Rosary at 11:00 pm to counteract the spells being cast.  Whatever hour you choose to pray, please be faithful to it.

Pope Francis Urges Us To Give Back

Here is an article regarding his words today.  Does that mean he'll be returning the Rosary cross that he removed from the corpse of a friend while the latter was in viewing at a funeral home?  Perhaps he's already done so.

Public Square Rosary Crusade - Tomorrow In Silver Spring, MD

All across the nation, America Needs Fatima is sponsoring Rosary Rallies to be held tomorrow, Saturday October 16th, at noon.  One such rally will occur in Silver Spring Maryland - in front of 1400 Spring Street, which houses a Planned Parenhood abortion mill.

Here is a map of the location.  From the Capital Beltway, take the Georgia Avenue exit south towards Washington.  After the 16th Street turn-off to the right (stay on Georgia Ave), you'll soon see a park on your right.  At that intersection is Spring Street.  Turn right.  There is public parking on the street.  If the spaces are taken, ask other people praying to direct you to the public parking garage, only two blocks away.

Pray the Rosary!

Urgent! Your Prayers and Presence Requested at Capitol Sat Nov 7th!

I received an email blast that the Obama-concocted death trap laughingly referred to as a "health care bill" is scheduled for a floor vote this Saturday at 6pm.

Much has happened in terms of protests this past week. However, on Saturday evening, the proverbial "rubber will hit the road". I am therefore asking that Catholics join me at the southeast corner of Constitution Avenue and First Street, NE on Saturday at 5pm to pray the Rosary to beg God's graces in preventing a disastrous vote. This location is directly accross the street from the Capitol. If you take the metro, take it to Union Station and then just walk south on First Street. Of course all good people are invited to join us and pray in accordance with your own traditions. If you plan to be there, please advise via the comments at the bottom of this post.

Between now and then, please pray and contact your own congressional representatives.
