You and your family are in my prayers. I'll hit the tip jar after linking this post from one I just published about Granny Jan's newest video about the deceit of Barry and Co. Good wishes to you and family!

Don't have any money to help, but have crash space and broadband in St. Pete, FL if that would help.

Gave you a hat tip and linkage on this ... put up an article linking his blog (and another to his tip jar). Not much I can do otherwise until after the 3rd of next month ... too late for the Florida Debates and primary. Also put up an new article at http://anexconsview.wordpre...

Glad to see the "new" Zilla blog! Looking good. Make sure your dentist also keeps potential cardiac involvement in mind. I just got home from a cardiac cath and another stent implanted in my heart (makes six).

Same here. From the structure of the comments, probably eastern European in origin (although I do get quite a few from Germany).

Vent my friend, say what is on the minds of conservative Catholics (a seeming minority) as I have attempted to do with my posts on this subject. Shockingly, very few of those who claim to be Catholics really are. The practicing Catholics I've met and know (and being a former Capuchin-Franciscan brother I can usually tell quickly if someone is actually a practicing Catholic) are mostly conservative politically and socially. These are usually the ones who do the grunt work in every parish, volunteering their time and labor for the good of the parish without fanfare or usually, thanks.

Re: ‘Twas Our Own Who Betrayed Us

Fr. Athanasius (Paul Lemmen) — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 22:02:45 -0000

I am going to post here the content of an email I sent to Ann Barnhardt a few days ago (and which I have given her permission to use in an upcoming post):
"Ann;
I spent three years in St. Lawrence Monastery in Beacon NY, both
as a postulant and Novice. I experienced first hand the hold that
homosexuality has on the formation of clerics and religious Brothers. On
the day of my investiture as a Novice Capuchin-Franciscan, there were
suddenly five more men to become Novices, men who had not attended the
required week of silent retreat. These future priests were all Ivy
League educated and all homosexuals from prominent and wealthy families
(I was none of those things, being the oldest Novice at 33 years of
age). The three original Novices were housed in the Novice floor in the
traditional cells (8" X 16') with only a cot, three-legged stool and a
bookcase that had a fold out desk. The new Novices were housed on the
professed floor where they had a two room suite with private lavatory
and closet. It soon became very apparent, even in the assignment of
chores, that these scions of the wealthy were to be treated differently.
About halfway through my Novitiate year, I decided to leave as I did
not believe these very obviously homosexual individuals were valid
Novices and the obvious homosexuality of the priests in charge of the
formation program upset my ability to concentrate on my studies. The
Theology classes were full of Liberation Theology and Marxist thought.
(A couple of years after I left several of the priests broke away and
formed a new order, one of the most well known being Fr. Andrew Apostoli
of the EWTN network, a truly holy man and my spiritual advisor during
my years at St. Lawrence). Sadly, everywhere I have gone, the priests I
have talked to all come to the same conclusion you do.

Look back at the "National Church" created in the USSR and whose Bishops were chosen and invested by Lavrentiy
Pavlovich Beria and others in the NKVD, including a number of
westerners that were subsequently incardated into dioceses throughout
Europe and the Americas. Additionally, the ComIntern supported the
positioning of the sons of wealthy sympathizers in positions of power
within the Church by whatever means possible, including bribery,
purchase and endowment of burses as well as blackmail of Msgrs and
Bishops that were homosexual.

Keep it up Ann! I will as well. "
Fake Catholics or false Catholics tick me off. If you follow the Magisterium of the Church you are a Catholic. Vary by one jot or tittle and you are not.

Fr. Athanasius (Paul Lemmen) — Sat, 18 Feb 2012 07:51:05 -0000

I'm not Zilla, but I'll give you my opinion. No. I do not believe Christ would have agreed to this at all. If you actually read the teachings of Christ without the liberal Marxist interpretation you will see that Christ directs us to care for the poor, the sick, the jailed, the widows and orphaned. He commands us to care for them directly, individually and to our ability to do so. Nowhere in the Gospels does He direct us to surrender our obligation to do these things to a government agency or department. Instead He directs us to perform these corporal works of mercy out of love for God and love for our fellow man. Period. All else slips and slides into error.

Re: ‘Twas Our Own Who Betrayed Us

Fr. Athanasius (Paul Lemmen) — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 11:35:22 -0000

Don't discount yourself so MJ! I would rather direct a lost soul to you, someone who knows mankind's failings and has deep reservations with our Catholic Church as currently configured and represented than someone who does not believe in the Magisterium of the Church and the essential truth of the Bible as well as the Salvation of Christ but is a believer in the delusion of socialist/Marxist spin on the Word of God and a touchy-feely 'happy'=happy expression of that emotional clap-trap christianity. A true Church believer like you would point them to a Church that preaches the truth about sin, Hell and salvation and doesn't accept the bullshit that passes itself off as Catholicism in America today.

Pax et Bonum MJ.

You remember the old saw "Your face and my ass"? It really applies in this case, my rosy pink ass and Tingles' face look like twins separated at birth.

Thanks for re-posting this Will, it is a part of my series on Marxism, specifically Cultural Marxism as the methodology of collapsing our Republic. I just published another one entitled "Cultural Marxism and the Culture of Fear" available at: http://anexconsview.wordpre...

Thank you Robert! I believe that by understanding our enemedia and disingenuous politicians, we can devise effective methods to overcome them and rescue/restore our Republic. I will be publishing an article a day for the rest of the week on this subject (one of great interest to me and this series is the result of many hours of research).
