Francis's book "Dialogos entre Juan Pablo II Y Fidel Castro" presents evidence that he is pro-Communist, anti-Capitalism and by inference Anti-American because the United States is the driving force behind the global free market system. He wrote on page 23 that there apparently could be a "convergence" of "premises" between Communism and Catholicism: "Fidel Castro offered a... convergence or points of connection between Catholicism and the premises (los postulados) of the [Cuban Communist] Revolution." However, later in the his book he states there cannot be a convergence of premises between Capitalism and Catholicism: You cannot hold the premises (los postulados) of "neoliberalismo" (Capitalism) and be considered a Christian. The failures of Marxism and Collectivism don't authorize the Capitalist system (al sistema capitalista)... we find in "neoliberalismo" (Capitalism) the opposite of the Gospel...

Flashback: http://freevoiceonline.wordpress.com/2008/10/29/biden-lowers-standard-of-rich-to-those-earning-150000-a-year/ Biden lowers standard of “rich” to those earning $150,000 a year October 29, 2008, 2:51 pm Filed under: Democrats, Economy, McCain, Media Bias, Obama, Republicans, Sarah Palin | Tags: Taxes, rich, Joe Biden All through the campaign the Obama-Biden campaign had a standard definition of “rich” as those who earn $250,000 a year saying only those who earned that amount (or more) would be the ones getting tax raises. Apparently now the Obama-Biden campaign is now lowering their standard definition of rich to those earning $150,000 a year. — Until now, this was considered middle class by Obama. Could this be a sign that Obama [and Biden] will in fact raise taxes on, not only the rich, but also the middle class as well as the poor? Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Mass and the Church as well as for the Triumph of the Kingdom of the Sacred He...

Sometimes the posts in the Catholic Monitor comment section are better than many of my posts. This time the long time reader, Praypraypray , wrote a excellent comment which needed to be a posted: Heaven knows we need solid Bishops and priests to stand up and preach the truth and deny Holy Communion to pro-abortion politicians. I just read a ridiculous article by the non-Catholic NCR yellow rag, in which they were trying to push people to vote for Biden. A joke of a quote from their article noted that Biden, “... could be on the cusp of becoming only the second Catholic president in U.S. history.” There are two huge problems with that. First of all, Biden, who truly can rarely make a coherent statement, lately, does not stand a chance of being elected President of the USA, unless the DemocRats cheat his way to the top, so they could use him as a puppet. The other humongous problem is that Biden is not truly a Catholic. He can call himself Catholic all that he wants, but...

Flashback: http://www.catholiccitizens.org/press/contentview.asp?c=47538 Pope Benedict and the Three Non-negotiables of the Catholic Faith 8/5/2008 8:37:00 PM -www.vatican.va Please fast and pray for the upcoming election. This is a speech by Holy Father which he gave to the Europeans in 2006,where he talks about 3 non-negotiable beliefs of the Catholic Church, which fit perfectly for people contemplating who to vote for in this upcoming election. To read the entire document, see link below. Pope Benedict XVI: "As far as the Catholic Church is concerned, the principal focus of her interventions in the public arena is the protection and promotion of the dignity of the person, and she is thereby consciously drawing particular attention to principles which are not negotiable. Among these the following emerge clearly today: - protection of life in all its stages, from the first moment of conception until natural death; - recognition and promotion of the n...

  Apparently, one of Joe Biden’s favorite ex-clerics is ex-Cardinal Theodore McCarrick who concelebranted the funeral Mass for his son and had the so-called honor at one point to almost sit next to Biden's beloved ex-President Barack Obama. "In June 2015, [sexual predator] Cardinal Theodore McCarrick served as a concelebrant at the funeral Mass for Vice President Joe Biden’s son, offering some of the final prayers for Beau Biden." "In March 2011, when Rep. John A. Boehner hosted his first St. Patrick’s Day luncheon as the new House speaker, McCarrick had the honored seat next to the Ohio Republican , one seat removed from President Barack Obama."

2008 Flashback: Singer Supports Sex with Corpses, Animals and Same-Sex Marriage http://209.85.141.104/search?q=cache:2haQOxCWDksJ:www.worldmag.com/subscriber/displayarticle.cfm%3Fid%3D9987+Peter+Singer+same-sex+marriage&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=us&ie=UTF-8 Don't expect [top animal rights leader]Peter Singer to be quoted heavily on the issue that roiled the Nov. 2 election, same-sex marriage. That for him is intellectual child's play, already logically decided, and it's time to move on to polyamory. While politicians debate the definition of marriage between two people, Mr. Singer argues that any kind of "fully consensual" sexual behavior involving two people or 200 is ethically fine. For example, when I asked him last month about necrophilia (what if two people make an agreement that whoever lives longest can have sexual relations with the corpse of the person who dies first?), he said, "There's no moral problem with th...

Sexual predator ex-cardinal Theodore McCarrick protected Joe Biden when then head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (later to be Pope Benedict XVI) wrote that bishops were not to admit to Communion politicians like "gravely sinful" Biden who supports the killing of unborn babies. McCarrick lied for politicians like Biden by ignoring the important parts of the Ratzinger letter and told bishops not to obey or ignore the Catholic Church law. Last year, Fr. Robert Morey denied Holy Communion to the “gravely sinful” Biden following a "2004 decree signed jointly by the bishops of Atlanta, Charleston, and Charlotte": "In denying Biden communion, [Fr.] Morey was following a diocesan policy set forth in a 2004 decree signed jointly by the bishops of Atlanta, Charleston, and Charlotte. The decree states that supporting pro-abortion legislation is 'gravely sinful' and that public figures who do so mus...

Flashback: ROME, January 30, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Archbishop Raymond Burke, in an exclusive interview last week, told LifeSiteNews.com that the issue of pro-abortion politicians continuing to receive Holy Communion is still one of major concern and that it is the duty of bishops to ensure that they are refused. He told LifeSiteNews.com, "I don't understand the continual debate that goes on about it. There's not a question that a Catholic who publicly, and after admonition, supports pro-abortion legislation is not to receive Holy Communion and is not to be given Holy Communion." "The Church's law is very clear," said Archbishop Burke, who was appointed last year by Pope Benedict XVI as the head of the Church's highest court, the Apostolic Signatura. "The person who persists publicly in grave sin is to be denied Holy Communion, and it [Canon Law] doesn't say that the bishop shall decide this. It's an absolute....

Flashback: ACLU and Nambla: A Match Made In Hell Posted on June 17, 2005 Crossposted With Permission From Merri Musings NAMBLA states that they are on an important, historic mission. They state that their mission is simple. Abolition of age of consent laws that classify sex with children as rape. NAMBLA is the North American Man/Boy Love Association. Charles Jaynes, 25, reportedly viewed the group’s web site shortly before the killing of Jeffrey Curley, a 10 year old boy, slain in 1997. Jaynes also had in his possession some of NAMBLA’s publications. Also convicted in the killing was 24 year old Salvatore Sicari. Sicari, convicted of first degree murder, is serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole. Jaynes’ second degree murder and kidnapping convictions enable him to seek parole within the next 20 years. Was this a case of misunderstanding? Does this fit with NAMBLA’s philosophy of man/boy love that is non violent? Hardly. Prosecutors said Jaynes...

  Hypocrite Anthony Fauci is not wearing a mask and not social distancing.  2020 COVID hysteria promoter Anthony Fauci has a multi-million to billion dollar "big-money Bill Gates conflict of interest." On April 4, Your News, which according to Wikipedia "is a weekly BBC News television programme," in the article "[Anthony] Fauci and Birx both have a Big-Money Bill Gates Conflict of Interest" reported: "Gates has lots of pull in the medical world, he has a multi-million dollar relationship with Dr. [Anthony] Fauci..." "Coronavirus response team member Dr. Deborah Birx... sits on the board of a group that has received billions from Gates foundation, and Birx reportedly used a disputed Bill Gates-funded model for the White House Coronavirus effort. Gates is a big proponent for a population lockdown scenario for the Coronavirus outbreak." Moreover, the article revealed that: "Gates is funding coronavirus vaccine can...

A Sean Hannity newslette r email from Mark Beckton: Dear Patriot, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are holding coronavirus relief funds hostage by trying to force America to accept a vote-by-mail election in 2020. Voting by mail has been proven to be the most vulnerable, fraud-prone way to hold elections.  It’s cheating instead of holding a fair election, which is why Chuck and Nancy are desperate to force it on America. The politicians need to know that American voters won’t accept their national vote-by-mail scheme. Cast your vote on this question today: Does voting by mail compromise America’s election security?

In 2006, with Muslims firebombing and shooting bullet holes through Christian churches in West Bank, a Italian nun being gunned down in Somali and an Iraqi insurgent group threatening to bomb the Vatican with a suicide attack, Pope Benedict XVI didn't back down. The pope was being pressured by Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I, spiritual leader of the world's 200 million Orthodox Christians, to back down. But on Saturday Sept.16, 2006 the Associated Press said: “Pope Benedict XVI ‘sincerely regrets’ offending Muslims with his reference to an obscure medieval text that characterizes some of the teachings of Islam's founder as ‘evil and inhuman,’The Vatican said Saturday. But the statement stopped short of the apology demanded by Islamic leaders around the globe, and anger among Muslims remained intense.” On Sunday Sept. 17, AP reported that the pope said "he was 'deeply sorry' about the angry reaction to his recent remarks about Islam, which ...

Are there scientific reasons why Sweden didn't have totalitarian lockdowns or mandate tyrannical mask wearing laws? Might the hidden agenda for the lockdowns be not just to promote government tyranny, but to kill more people by not allowing herd immunity so that in the Fall and Winter when all viruses return for a second wave that more people can die to promote more tyranny? Is the United States lockdown about Americans not getting mass immunity from the virus as Sweden, Korea, Singapore, and Japan have apparently done by NOT HAVING LOCKDOWNS so more people can die to keep in place the tyranny? UnHerd presented evidence that the lockdowns are not allowing most Americans to get "immunity" so that they can be largely immune to the virus which means the lockdowns may be about killing more Americans in the Fall and Winter. Moreover, "the [scientific] evidence base for using masks in society is still very weak": In just a few short months Anders Te...
