Our Interesting Times: The Abortion Debate as Ethnic Warfare

Cardinal Zen Arrested

Edit: I’d rather link to Washington Post than the Catholic Dredgister.

Will the lying, autocratic friend of the Communist Party in Rome condemn this act?

Update: The Catholic snooze service says the Vatican is “concerned”. Wow. What nancies. 

HONG KONG — The Hong Kong national security police arrested 90-year-old Cardinal Joseph Zen, the most outspoken senior Catholic cleric in Hong Kong and the city’s bishop emeritus, along with at least three others on Wednesday for their involvement in a humanitarian relief fund, according to lawyers involved in the case.

The arrests signal a new wave of detentions under the national security law since John Lee was elected as the new chief executive of Hong Kong. He has emphasized that maintaining stability and safeguarding national security would be one of his main goals once in office. Zen, along with renowned barrister Margaret Ng and academic Hui Po-keung, were arrested under the law for collusion with foreign forces by helping out as trustees for the now-disbanded 612 humanitarian relief fund, according to local media reports.

The Decline of the Catholic Church in Latin America Accelerates Under Francis

 

The decline of Catholics in Latin America continues unabated. It increased under Pope Francis.

(Rome) For decades, Latin America was considered a “continent of hope” for the Catholic Church. In fact, it is losing ground there day by day. The reasons are complex but partly homemade. At the 2013 conclave, a well-meaning section of the pope's electorate was convinced that the election of the Argentine to the throne of Peter would halt the process of erosion. This was suggested to them by interested parties. The reality looks not only sobering but devastating. The most visible “response” so far has been the Amazon Synod. Church leadership seriously believes that this is the solution. Meanwhile, Catholic Latin America continues to erode.

The election of Pope Francis was engineered by European cardinals who were not primarily concerned with Latin America, but with the West. Their program is that of the '68, which they want to push through in their own countries. To do this, they chose the detour via Latin America. The Amazon Synod was driven by the same agenda. There is talk of Indians and the rain forest on the equator, but the desired program is that of the ecclesiastical 68ers with the aim of pushing through their agenda somewhere outside the European horizon in order to then re-import it into the old Occident. This strategy follows a clear logic after the direct route was recognized as having failed.

The eroding process of the Church in Latin America as far as the part of the Church is concerned, goes back to the wrong course that was set by European missionaries on the Iberian-influenced subcontinent. This includes, above all, Marxism and its thought pattern. This is how Liberation Theology developed and other currents. They are accompanied by a latent or open hostility to Europe. A paradox? It seems so. In reality, it reflects a partly consciously, partly unconsciously intentional decomposition, as practiced in Europe. It is the rejection of one's own identity, carried out with gradually varying degrees of intensity, and thus radically or to some extent also of Christianity, in Europe as well as in Latin America. 

The fact that the 500th anniversary of Christianization is partly "forgotten" is an alarming portent, after all, it was only then that civilization found its way onto the continent. In 1492 the discovery by Columbus, a man of deep Catholic character, was commemorated. However, the commemoration was overshadowed by polemical interference.

In 2019, the Mexican bishops extended an invitation to Pope Francis to come to Mexico for the 500th anniversary of the evangelization of mainland America. The first church on the American mainland was built in Tlaxcala in 1521 and dedicated to St. Francis of Assisi. However, Pope Francis showed no interest in traveling to the celebrations – and that had nothing to do with Corona, which then messed everything up a bit.

The Tlaxcaltecs could never be subdued by the cruel Aztecs. It is historically no coincidence that they allied themselves with the Spaniards and also quickly mixed with them through marriages. Together, the Spanish-Tlaxcaltec coalition defeated the Aztec Empire and ended its cruel cult of human sacrifice and cannibalism.

While the occasion was not sufficient for Pope Francis to travel to Latin America, Mexico's leftist leader, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, called for an apology from the Church to the "native peoples" (the term indigenous is used by political correctness is avoided) – for Christianization. However, the same Obrador considers Pope Francis to be “one of the finest popes” in Church history.

media and source

Telemundo, part of NBCUniversal ( USA), the third-largest media company in the world, and other media outlets, yesterday published reports on the decline of the Catholic Church in Latin America. The headline and tenor of Telemundo are exaggerated. No regrets can be expected from the authors. Rather, they indicate that the Church opposed abortion and euthanasia, but that its erosion entails socio-political changes. Thus, with the help of massive and planned pressure from the US and European NGOs, several states have legalized the killing of unborn children and "gay marriage". The same movement is also taking place toward the introduction of euthanasia.

The published figures come from Latinobarómetro and are certainly worth considering, albeit with a caveat. The market and opinion research institute based in Santiago de Chile is described by Wikipedia as an "independent private non-profit organization", but where it says "independent" today, independence is rarely to be found. Founder and Director Marta Lagos serve on the Chilean Board of Directors of Women's World Banking ( headquartered in New York), Advisor to the World Bank based in Washington, the United Nations Development Program UNDP based in New York, the Inter-American Development Bank Washington-based IADB and member of a UN Expert Committee on Public Opinion. The advisory board of Latinobarómetro includes a representative from Eurobarometer, a not at all "independent" institution of the EU Commission.

UNDP and IADB, the Ibero-American Summit OEI and the Development Bank of Latin America CAF, as well as the Norwegian and Swedish governments, are among Latinobarómetro's major donors.

The latest numbers

Latinobarómetro compares the development from 2000 to 2020 in ten-year steps. The number of Latin Americans who describe themselves as Catholic fell from 76 percent in 2000 to 70 percent in 2010 and 57 percent in 2020. This is double the decline compared to the previous decade.

In return, the Protestants and the non-religious have grown. The proportion of Protestants in Brazil grew from 13 percent (2000) to 25 percent (2020). If you add the proportion of those who waver, according to other institutes, the proportion of Protestants in the largest Latin American country is as high as 31 percent. In Guatemala, their share has even risen from 19 percent to 41 percent since 2000, while that of Catholics has fallen to 41 percent.

At the survey's launch in Mexico City on Wednesday, the only reason given for this development was that "young people now have a wider range of options to choose from," that Protestant groups have increased their recruitment; that New Age movements incorporate pre-Columbian traditions and that faith in the Catholic Church is at an all-time low.

Nevertheless, Catholicism continues to be influential because it is socially rooted in culture and folklore, "even among non-practicing people". This even applies to Uruguay, the least Catholic country in Latin America, where only 34 percent call themselves Catholics. Nevertheless, Catholic holidays are held, such as Holy Week, which has been called “Tourism Week” since 1919, when a law of strict separation of Church and state came into force.

Unhappy Reactions About Roe v. Wade Decision

Edit: from the demoniac.

 

To the Jewish Simpchimp Fischer, Oy veh! She pretended to be conservative, but now feels the moment to drop her mask and campaign for all of the right kosher causes. 

I didn’t realize Fischer was a single mother!

[Anerica] But the cause of my embarrassment has changed. You know what I mean. It is one thing to know that people think pro-lifers are dorky and uncool and to decide that you can live with that. It is quite another to know that people think pro-lifers are anti-woman and anti-immigrant and anti-poor people—and the reason they think so is because the most public faces of the pro-life party cannot seem to stop saying so.

Like many of my friends, I have backed away from identifying myself as pro-life in the last few years. I just don’t want to be associated with any of that. I stopped writing about it, stopped talking about it.

But the recent leak of the Supreme Court draft has made certain conversations unavoidable. It is a historic moment, and one that I welcome intellectually, if not emotionally, because I know it’s crucial if we’re to begin the work of building a world where abortion doesn’t seem necessary. I had to talk about it with my kids, and I have had to admit to myself that the reluctance I am feeling is not really anything more profound than embarrassment. It is nothing more complex than that same crawling sensation I felt as a child when I knew that the cool kids didn’t like me. I want to be motivated by something nobler than that, but I am not. I am just embarrassed. And I need to get over it because too much is at stake.

Pope Says NATO Might Have Provoked Russia

ROME — Pope Francis said that NATO “barking” at Russia’s door may have led to Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine — and said he has offered to meet the Russian president in Moscow.

In an interview with the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera, Francis reflected on Russia’s lethal aggression toward its neighbor and said while he might not go as far as saying NATO’s presence in nearby countries “provoked” Moscow, it “perhaps facilitated” the invasion.

Francis also condemned the “brutality” of the war and compared it to Rwanda’s civil war in the 1990s, which resulted in a genocide of the Tutsi minority.

Roe Overturned?

 

Jodi Hicks, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California, had some strong words in response to the leaked draft. 

“This is the nightmare scenario we in the reproductive health, rights, and justice space have been sounding the alarm about and especially once the U.S. Supreme Court had a conservative majority,” Hicks said in a statement Monday night.

“The extreme conservatives on the Supreme Court have already shown their blatant disregard for constitutional rights when they allowed S.B. 8 to stand in Texas,” she said. “And now, if this opinion truly is reflective of the final decision of the majority of the U.S. Supreme Court Justices, then even if abortion remains legal today, we are just days away from more than 26 states banning access to abortion services, essential and safe health care that has been a constitutional right for nearly 50 years. Make no mistake about it, the plan has always been to ban and criminalize abortion ever since 1973 when Roe v. Wade was decided.”

The “Systematic” War in Ukraine

The war in Ukraine and the geopolitical interests of Russia, the USA and the EU.

The war in Ukraine is viewed from different angles, including cultural and theological.  Stefano Fontana, Director of the International Observatory Cardinal Van Thuan for the Social Doctrine of the Church and Editor-in-Chief of the Church Newspaper of the Archdiocese of Trieste, spoke with Gianfranco Battisti, Professor of Economic Geography at the University of Trieste, focusing on the financial geography and geopolitics, on geopolitical aspects of Ukraine- conflict.

Stefano Fontana: The countries that are opposed to Russia - I don't call them Western, because Russia is historically and culturally part of the West, that is, European - because they seem to consider it unworthy to take into account Russia's geopolitical motives.  I ask myself: how can you start peace negotiations if you don't even consider the reasons and interests of the country you want to negotiate with – whatever those may be?

Gianfranco Battisti: Since it is a fact that geopolitics is neither a branch of ethics nor a journalistic exercise, but a thorough and unvarnished analysis of reality, I would say that the question already implies the answer.

Across the West, the authorities - and 95 percent of the media - assume a priori that Russia is wrong.  That can't be true, because good and bad cannot be separated by a political boundary.  It follows that beyond lip service there is no intention to negotiate.  It must also be said that this is a conflict that has caught almost all governments on the wrong foot, leaving them unable to respond rationally.  In reality, it is not so much about the conflict between Russia and Ukraine: we are approaching the final phase of the East-West conflict, which we thought ended in 1990.

The only difference from before is that Russia now seems alone against the offensive of the entire Western coalition, with all the risks involved in plunging a nuclear power into crisis.  It also seems clear that this is indeed a US-Russia showdown.  As for the others, Ukraine "offers itself" as a battlefield, while the rest of NATO members turn out to be satellite states, mostly involved without much conviction.  Their leaders try to give the appearance of political initiative, both domestic and continental, but in reality fall into masochistic behavior.

Stefano Fontana: Any war that is not only local - and the one in Ukraine cannot be considered only local - leads to major changes in societies, in culture and in the global order of economic and political systems.  Let's think about what the two world wars did in this sense.  In your opinion, will this war also have far-reaching effects?  Will it be an opportunity for a Great Reset, which by the way is already underway?

 

Professor Gianfranco Battisti

Gianfranco Battisti: It is undoubtedly a systemic war: it will mark the transition from the world as we have known it to a very different and probably worse world.  The forces that knowingly pushed Russia into an adventure that is proving to be a trap are the same ones that want to implement the Great Reset, at least across the OECD area.  Behind it, however, is the redefinition of global hegemony.  A project that represents the last resort to guarantee minimal survival for the United States, a military superpower that no longer has any economy behind it and, it seems, not even a society that can be called civilized.

At the local level, in the logic of other times, it could be the “founding war” of a finally independent state community for Ukraine.  Unfortunately, times are no longer such that this would be possible.  The mechanism that has been set in motion cannot be stopped – and one does not want it to be stopped.  What is so tragically moving about the whole thing is the Ukrainian people, who have been maliciously promised a bright future, when in reality they are getting a field of rubble, which is why they will have an emigration fate, as is the case with the Syrians.

From a military point of view, it is a preventive war that essentially pursues two goals:

1. To permanently prevent the establishment of normal relations between the EU countries and the Russian Federation, thereby reaffirming the Anglo-American logic codified in 1904 by Sir Halford Mackinder, the 'father' of British geopolitics.

2. To deal a mortal blow to Russia and weaken her in view of the crucial confrontation with China.  It is clearly in the interests of the two Atlantic powers - and here we can understand the real reasons behind Britain's otherwise incomprehensible exit from the EU - because an EU without raw materials and without the Russian market will inevitably turn into a huge colony that is fully subject to the "care" of the Atlantic multinationals.  Those who believe that this could mark the birth of a 'real' European state would do well not to drink too much wine.

In any case, the seismic movement that was triggered will take many years to stabilize.

Stefano Fontana: Italy took a rather “reckless” stance in the war in Ukraine.  Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi's speech to Parliament on March 1, 2022 was quite "belligerent" and in stark contrast to Italy's traditional foreign policy.  Does that mean that at the moment there is no Italian foreign policy and that Italy adopts a position that is determined by others?

Gianfranco Battisti: Like Monti, Draghi is not a prime minister elected by the Italians, but primarily a banker linked to international financial interests.  He is a man of the apparatus, a skilful manager whose scope of action is severely restricted by the instructions given to him from above and which he then drops like boulders on a disordered, i.e. not really capable of acting, parliament.  To think that he could pursue an "Italian" foreign policy, even if he wanted to, would be to be guilty of naivety.  Worse still, no Italian politician currently seems to have the sine qua non to lead the country.  The only hope is that, in the best Italian tradition, Draghi's words are just words.  But it seems to me that words must be followed by deeds, especially since increasing military spending to 2% of GDP is a mantra that the US has been teasing Europeans for years.

Stefano Fontana: As a "European" response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, there is constant talk of EU countries increasing military spending and creating an EU military force.  What do you think of this disturbing prospect?

Gianfranco Battisti: In the face of an economic crisis that is proving to be frightening in terms of its gravity and its extent in space and time, the mere thought of increasing military spending carries a very negative connotation.  One thing is certain: when something goes wrong, the political class responsible for the economic and social collapse of their countries jumps enthusiastically into the arms race.  They delude themselves that they are doing something to restart the economy while they look forward to the bribes that will come with it.  In reality, it's a road that leads straight to Hell, since weapons, once at hand, are inevitably used.  The state of war is also attractive to failed politicians so that they can silence any form of protest.  In any case, buying guns when budgets are deep in the red means preventing any serious discussion about sanitation.

As for the ambition of an EU military power, this is yet another scam that the politicians in Brussels are dishing out to our peoples.  Everyone knows, and they are the first to know, that the US will never allow the emergence of a European military apparatus independent of its control.

Finally, why should we arm ourselves?  The Ukrainian tragedy proves ad abundantiam that Russia poses no threat to Europe.  Not only because its main interest is in continuing to sell us its raw materials, which it does despite everything, but simply because it has no military apparatus to worry us.  That's why it doesn't even think about attacking us.  We are experiencing a colossal mystification that we inherited from the “Cold War” and of which the “ruling class” in Kyiv today is one of the architects.  On the contrary, has one of the many philistines in circulation ever noticed that the EU is nibbling away at a piece of Russia every day?  And isn't that always peaceful?

In the logic across the Atlantic, the short-term goal is to make money selling obsolete weapons, while the long-term goal is to fight WWIII in Europe and Asia, not the US.  We're talking nuclear war because that's what the F‑35s -1 we're all so interested in are for.  The fact that no one is able to convey these elemental truths says a lot about the leaden cloak that has settled over our media - and partly to blame is a pandemic that was announced in advance...

 Stefano Fontana: What do you think of the plan to equate the European Union with Europe?

Gianfranco Battisti: It's a short-sighted vision that comes from the minds of politicians who don't generally belong to the category of great thinkers.  It's also geographically, historically, and culturally incorrect.  If we then look at Russia, at least at the so-called European part of Russia (which is no small matter), we have to realize with no small concern that, despite everything, today it represents something of the idea of ​​Europe that we have nurtured so hopefully up to now, is left.  In this vast country, Europe is still a myth, while we have a cupio dissolvi, a desire for dissolution that we imported, who knows how spontaneously, from America.

An all too quickly forgotten warning resurfaces: "Europe will be Christian or it will not be".  Weapons will certainly not unite us, but rather destroy us.  From this point of view, the persistent effort to erect a wall of hatred that helps separate Christians in the East from those in the West is a crime that cries out for vengeance to God.  And on this point, the Christians in Europe unfortunately do not always have a clear conscience.  The reaction in Ukraine to the message of peace proclaimed during the Via Crucis in Rome is emblematic.

Italian Bishops' Conference Grooming Children with Aberrosexual Spectacle

"Italy sends queer duet" to the Eurovision Song Contest, and the German gay scene is also pleased. This refers to Blanco & Mahmood. On Easter Monday, Blanco was even allowed to perform in St. Peter's Square, as a "prelude" for Pope Francis.

By Cristina Siccardi*

Instead of explaining to parents how to regain the dimension of father and mother according to Christian principles and to reconnect the torn thread to the sense of the holiness of the family, the Italian Bishops' Conference for Easter Monday, when the Church commemorates the angelic apparition at the empty tomb of Jesus (Mk 16:1-7), has invited the 19-year-old Generation Z rapper Blanco (Riccardo Fabbriconi), winner of the anti-Christian and blasphemous Sanremo Festival 2022 with "Brividi" ("Goosebumps"), a song that puts aberrosexuality and heterosexuality on the same level, to perform in front of 57,000 young people "on pilgrimage" before the Pope's arrival for the prayer vigil at 6 pm. So, in order to attract the attention of the youth who suffer from social networks, sex and broken families, the Church needs witnesses who lead even the young people light years away from God? Is that the purpose of the Church?

Don Michele Falabretti, head of the Office for Youth Pastoral Care of the Italian Bishops' Conference, said: "We thought we were giving a gift to boys and girls", because the context must be taken into account: "Woe betide you if you underestimate him! You run the risk of not being on the same wavelength." For the prelate, it is unthinkable "to talk to them, to convince them with arguments or words, if one is not first willing to listen to them without giving the appearance of wiping away their world with a swipe, judging it as dirty and unsuitable." The method developed by Saint John Bosco, not to draw attention to himself, but to save souls, was that of preventing evils and Christian joy, without the need to scrape together the perversions of the world and the artists who contradict the laws of God.

"The Church has always promoted art to lift up the spirit, while in this way approving vulgarity," said Msgr. Antonio Suetta, bishop of Ventimiglia, who spoke out against the decision of the Episcopal Conference. "I have heard this news with great negative surprise, for two reasons: firstly, I do not believe that this figure is a suitable model for a Catholic initiative aimed at young people, and secondly, I do not know the person, which is why I cannot comment on him. It is clear that the message conveyed during Blanco's performances does not fit into a Catholic context. I find it shameful that a figure who, especially after her victory at the festival together with Mahmood, has clearly become an icon of a certain conception of life, freedom, affectivity, etc., is performing in St. Peter's Square."

The attempt to attract the attention of young people, most of whom are engulfed by a cynical, irreverent, misanthropic and even violent culture (think of the actions of the baby gangs), is not only a pleasure for the LGBTQ movements, but a real blasphemy: in the forecourt of St. Peter's Basilica, it is not permissible to give space to those who speak words full of nausea, Shamefulness, profanity and swear words. The nightmare that the generation of children of the infernal contemporary "candle wick" consciously lives is also lived, but unconsciously, by the Church, overwhelmed by the fashion, chaos and masochism of an unreasonable and desecratory time. In the meantime, the connection to the reality of the Gospel and thus to what Jesus really taught has been lost. An example: the good shepherd seeks and finds the lost sheep; it is not the sheep that misleads the other 99. There is also an incontrovertible fact: just as you cannot serve two masters (God and the world), you cannot give paradise and Hell as the end goal at the same time.

"This is the world," headlined Vanity Fair magazine with Mahmood & Blanco on its front page. Italy is experiencing what the German-speaking world has already done with Conchita Wurst: an aggressive aberrsexualization of public space. The Eurovision Song Contest is once again the vehicle.

Pope Francis and a dialectically constructed contrast

Which variant does Pope Francis prefer: on the left Cardinal Marx with a gay flag in a church, on the right the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in the traditional rite?

(Rome) Francis, the "politician on the papal throne", is considered a master of dialectics. He constructs opposites that do not exist in this way, i.e. represent a contradiction in terms. The intention is to strengthen and scold. But who and what does Francis want to strengthen, but whom and what does he want to scold? The Bergoglian dialectic has an unpleasant aftertaste. It is not entirely wrong, but leaves the listener with the intuitive feeling of being pulled over the wrong table. The most recent example is yesterday's speech at Regina Caeli in St. Peter's Square.

Francis said to those gathered in Rome:

"Dear brothers and sisters, an imperfect but humble faith that always returns to Jesus is better than a strong but presumptuous faith that makes us proud and arrogant. Woe to them, woe!"

Imperfect faith is humble, strong faith is arrogant and presumptuous? Francis doesn't quite say it that way, but he does. The papal sympathies are distributed.

But who does Francis mean by those who are imperfect? Who with those who are strong? According to Francis' judgment, who has a positive connotation, who has a negative connotation?

Second edition of the clerical gay initiative in the German-speaking world

For the second week of May, aberrosexual church circles blow to the second halali on Catholic moral teaching and church obedience. The initiative #liebegewinnt is experiencing its second edition. Once again, homosexual couples are to be blessed in various parishes in the German-speaking world. The initiative is readily supported by the official church media.

In the front row is again the Munich parish vicar Wolfgang Rothe, who had already been suspected years ago of being aberrosexual [And child predator] himself and having favored more than just a parallel aberrosexual climate within the seminary of the diocese of Sankt Pölten. Since the seminary was considered a stronghold of a conservative education, the scandal was exposed by left-liberal mass media. The goal was to overthrow the unsuspecting Bishop Kurt Krenn, which finally succeeded.

Rothe vehemently denied at the time but found acceptance in the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising, of all places, which caused some astonishment. After plenty of whisky tasting, he has been at the forefront of the homo front since last year, which explains a lot.

Around May 10, 2021, the first gay offensive of German clerics took place in order to protest – in the style of political correctness of a permanent outrage over alleged discrimination – against a document of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith of March 15, 2021, with which gay blessings were rejected. The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith states that God neither blesses nor blesses sin. That would be a paradox.

Unmoved by this, more than a hundred Church employees in the Federal Republic of Germany "came out" as homosexual last January. No, according to gender theory, this would be too little inclusive, which is why Church media speak in politically correct terms of a confession to be "non-heterosexual".

Pope Francis is said to have been quite angry about the document and has since reinforced the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. Just a few months after his election, he had begun to initiate a paradigm shift to change the Church's attitude to aberrosexuality.

The official website currently lists forty churches throughout the German-speaking world participating in this year's Gay Initiative. In 2021, there were still 110.

But which variant does Francis prefer: imperfect and humble or strong and presumptuous?
