American Forces Vietnam Network signed on daily during the Vietnam War with the National Anthems of both countries. The key station was in Saigon. More about AFVN at https://www.afvnvets.net/ AFVN had 100,000 watts of AM power and FM stations as well. The background music sounds like Valley of the Dolls 1967. American television permeated Vietnam. Catholic President Ngo Dinh Diem (1901-1963) and his family were not sycophants of the US, and for that Democrat JFK ordered his murder.

The SSPX is present in Asia, including occasional visits to Vietnam, coordinated through their District of Asia, with resources and newsletters. The FSSP is present. Beginning in 2019, Father Laurent Demets began offering the Latin Mass 1962. Communism 
mercilessly restricts activity.
Picture
Demets was inspired by Saint Théophane Vénard, a French missionary and a favorite of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux (to ask a favor). He spread the Catholic faith in Vietnam and was martyred there in 1861 at 31. Note the right hand.

(That bit of propaganda is ungrammatical: no semi-colons.)

Xenophobia is the fear, dislike, or prejudice against people from other countries, cultures, or strangers, stemming from ancient Greek words meaning "strange" and "fear". The same crap is promulgated by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), a superfluous organization, derived from Latin, combining super + fluere, literally meaning "overflowing" or "running over", entering Middle English around the early 1400s to describe something exceeding what's necessary.

From the facts I've gathered in my blog, one can assume that most, if not all, sitting or emeritus American bishops, excepting Ward, Strickland, and Burke, are Democrats, lying, cheating, immoral servants of the diabolic, from Latin diabolus, meaning "slanderer", related to Greek diabolos, diabolique in French, diabólico in Spanish, and that includes the American Leo.

Observe how Denver's archbishop is dressed and his posh surroundings. He removed Father Nolan FSSP and excommunicated Father Anthony Ward SSF. The formal decree was delivered on November 10, 2025, by Bishop James R. Golka of the Diocese of Colorado Springs, which is within the archdiocese's jurisdiction and where Ward's community, the Servants of the Holy Family, is based. Aquila, 75, is a self-satisfied pig.

The archdiocese reached a $5.5 million settlement for 18 claims of childhood sexual abuse in 2008 without filing for bankruptcy. The Independent Reconciliation and Reparations Program (2019-2020) resolved more than 55 claims and paid over $6 million in REPARATIONS. After the independent program closed in 2020, the archdiocese established the Reparations and Healing Protocol, an ongoing protocol to resolve claims with the help of independent administrators. How much does that cost?

Aquila has been archbishop of Denver in since 2012. He previously served as bishop of Fargo, ND, from 2002 to 2012, a diocese connected to Minneapolis-St. Paul, loaded with sex abuse claims and depositions, all of which got settled, no one going to court.

Operation Barbarossa

Google AI Overview

The biggest invasion in history by scale, troops, and geographic scope was Operation Barbarossa, Nazi Germany's surprise attack on the Soviet Union 6/22/1941 - 12/5/1941, before the United States entered the war, involving nearly 4 million Axis troops along a 1,800-mile front, marking it the largest land offensive ever and biggest failure. While Barbarossa was the largest overall invasion, the D-Day landings Operation Overlord in Normandy, 1944, remain the largest seaborne invasion. Operation Barbarossa was named after Frederick Barbarossa (Frederick I), the medieval Holy Roman Emperor (1122-1190) who sought to establish German dominance in Europe.

Large numbers of people in the USA did not want us to enter the war, including Charles Lindbergh and Father Coughlin, and in England Oswald Mosely opposed the war. His wife called it the phony war.

A priest's duty is to serve those in his care whoever they might be, as did Maximilian Maria Kolbe OFMConv, Polish Conventual Franciscan friar, priest, missionary, and martyr.

While Hitler esteemed Jesus as an Aryan fighter against Jewish materialism who was martyred for his anti-Jewish stance, he did not ascribe to Jesus's death any significance in salvation history. Indeed, he did not believe in salvation at all and denied an afterlife. The idea of an "Aryan Jesus" was a racist theological concept promoted by some German protestant theologians during the Nazi era to justify anti-Semitism and de-Judaize Christianity, which is, of course, a mistaken idea of reality. Judaism and Catholicism are distinct realities with no overlap, BC & AD.

Ungar-Sargon
Batya Ungar-Sargon is a graduate of the University of Chicago and UC Berkeley, and that says everything you need to know about her. Obama and Leo spent much of their time in Chicago, Leo having been born there, and Saul Alinsky influenced both. Connor, 26, is a Latin Mass Catholic.

Metaphor
A third rail is highly electrified, carrying high-voltage direct current (DC) electricity (often 600V-750V) to power trains and subways through a contact shoe, acting as a rigid conductor rail alongside or between the running tracks, making it extremely dangerous to touch.

BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) uses a 1000-volt DC third rail system to power its trains, with the electrified rail located alongside the running rails, providing electricity through contact shoes on the underside of the cars.

Judeo-Christian
There is no such thing.

US Congress
Wikipedia
As of 2025, there are 10 Jewish senators and 25 Jewish members of the House of Representatives. (10% and 5.7%)

Google AI
Jews make up about 6-7% of the total body, significantly more than their share of the general U.S. population (around 2%). These numbers fluctuate slightly with new sessions and special elections, but Jewish representation remains consistently higher than their demographic proportion, with most belonging to the Democratic Party, notes Pew Research Center and the Jewish Virtual Library.

LBJ Democrat (1908-1973)
Lyndon Baines Johnson (LBJ) had deep Jewish connections stemming from his family's early Christadelphian beliefs, which emphasized the return of Jews to Israel, influencing his lifelong support for the Jewish people and Israel, including covertly helping hundreds of Jewish refugees escape the Nazis during WWII via "Operation Texas", and later becoming a strong diplomatic ally for Israel as President, famously stating, "I sure as hell want to be careful and not run out on little Israel".
  • Maternal Line: His mother, Rebekah Baines Johnson, and great-grandfather, George Washington Baines, were Baptists.
  • Paternal Line: His father and grandfather were prominent in the Baptist Church and Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).
  • Pro-Jewish Upbringing: His paternal grandfather, Sam Ealy Johnson, was a Christadelphian who taught LBJ to "take care of the Jews, 'God's Chosen People'" and support them.
  • LBJ's Stance: While not Jewish himself, LBJ internalized his grandfather's pro-Zionist views and became a strong advocate for Israel, as noted by the LBJ Library.

​Father Anthony Ward SSF (Servants of the Holy Family) was excommunicated for being secretly consecrated a bishop by Archbishop Telesphore George Mpundu of Zambia. Mpundu was excommunicated, too. Father's religious order is in Colorado Springs, CO, and they serve the Carmelite Monastery of the Sacred Hearts, the same place served by Father Daniel Nolan FSSP before the Denver archbishop forced him to be removed to Holy Ghost in Bethlehem, PA. I hope that these men persevere like Archbishop Viganò. Wear white martyrdom as a badge like Benedict of Italy, Kateri Tekakwitha of Canada, and Thérèse of France.

Q. How many Catholics in the U.S. accept the status quo?
A. The term "status quo" is broad, but survey data consistently shows that a minority of self-identified Catholics fully accept and practice all the official teachings and positions of the Catholic Church. The majority of Catholics rely heavily on their own conscience when making moral decisions and often hold views that diverge from Church doctrine on specific issues. 
Here are some specific areas where a majority of U.S. Catholics do not accept the Church's official position:
  • The Real Presence in the Eucharist: A 2019 Pew Research Center survey found that only about one-third (31%) of all self-identified Catholics believe in the Church's teaching of transubstantiation (that the bread and wine become the actual body and blood of Christ).
  • Moral Guidance: The majority of U.S. Catholics (74%) say they rely a great deal on their own conscience when making difficult moral choices, while fewer give the same weight to the Bible, the Pope, or specific Church teachings.
  • Abortion: A majority of Catholics in the U.S. (59%) support legal abortion in all or most cases, a position that is contrary to the official Church teaching.
  • LGBTQ+ Issues: Nearly three-quarters (74%) of Catholics agree that gay and lesbian relationships should be accepted by society, and strong majorities favor laws protecting against discrimination [marriage] and allowing same-sex couples to adopt children.
  • Weekly Mass Attendance: Only about 29% of self-identifying Catholics in the U.S. attend Mass weekly. The number of "practicing Catholics" who also go to confession yearly is estimated to be even lower, potentially around 10-20% of all self-identified Catholics. 
These statistics indicate significant differences between the official teachings of the Catholic Church and the beliefs and practices of a large portion of those who identify as Catholic. (end of Google AI)

Confession is required at least once a year (Lent).

"Tom Emmer Questions Tim Walz on Empty Daycare Receiving $4M in State Funds" By Alex Tanzer updated on December 27, 2025

…A viral video by YouTuber Nick Shirley has exposed a troubling case at Quality Learing Center, where a $4 million state funding haul meets an empty building, tying into a broader welfare fraud scandal estimated by federal authorities to exceed $9 million, the New York Post reports.

Shirley, a content creator with a knack for digging into local oddities, walked into Quality Learing Center—yes, “Learing” is spelled wrong on the sign—and found a ghost town. No kids, no crayons, just eerie silence in a place licensed for 99 children, according to state records...

Crime
Crime in Somalia is high and complex, driven by decades of conflict, weak governance, and extremist groups like Al-Shabaab, with prevalent issues including terrorism, unlawful killings, sexual violence, arms trafficking, and significant financial crimes (fraud, embezzlement), though reliable statistics are hard to pinpoint due to data scarcity and conflict, making it one of the world's most dangerous nations, particularly Mogadishu.

1962
​
Simon Wells, a middle-aged American tourist, a youth gang leader named King, and his over-protected sister, Joan, find themselves trapped in a top-secret government facility experimenting on children, adapted from The Children of Light, a 1960 sci-fi novel by H.L. Lawrence (1908-1990).

According to Murray Ewing, 
Henry Lionel Lawrence was born in 1908 in Lambeth (and baptized Catholic), and died in Colchester in 1990...I’ve only been able to find one, which was subsequently anthologized, “A Journey by Train”, about an encounter with a man who was dead for four days before being revived, and is now overcome by occasional murderous urges. Lawrence worked as an advertising copywriter.

He moved to Australia for a while, then Ceylon, but was back in Britain in time to join the RAF during World War II when he served as a photographer with a Bomber Command Pathfinder unit. He was married, and had a daughter by the time of his first novel, at which point he was “a Senior Copywriter in a well-known London Agency” (according to the jacket blurb of Children of Light).

I have listened to public school teachers K-12 discussing the current state of education, including the use of AI and the inability of their students to think critically. For that reason, I will make it clearer when I use AI and when content is my own.

My posts are used and redistributed, which is something over which I have no control. The solution is not for me to stop blogging. If any teachers have suggestions about the blog, please comment or subscribe and send me email.

Posts consume anywhere from 15 minutes to several hours of research, writing, and rewriting. Teachers say that students are not interested in learning, the film shows how children are manipulated, and COVID was intentional.

"Lord of life, bless this water. May it awaken our hearts, cleanse our indifference, soothe our grief, and renew our hope," he said at an October 2025 climate conference near Rome. The priests of the Coalition for Canceled Priests didn't get your blessing, but an iceberg did.

The Anchor (and Ark) is also a symbol of Freemasonry. The anchor is used in Christian symbolism and has been adopted by Freemasons to have a similar meaning. An anchor is used, quite literally, as a way of grounding a ship, and Freemasons believe that this symbol speaks to living a life grounded in peace against stormy weather and hope. The Church forbids Freemasonry.

  • Unethical Practices: Concerns exist around data privacy, monopolies, and the relentless drive for profit, sometimes overshadowing social responsibility.
  • Cult-like Culture: Some critics, like Ted Gioia, see the Valley as evolving into a creepy, insular cult.
  • Influential Figures: Figures like Peter Thiel are seen as polarizing, embodying libertarian ideals that prioritize wealth and power.

If you search billionaire Peter Thiel, you will be astounded at what he owns and does. He is "married" to Matt Danzeisen, and they have children together. Charles Matthew Danzeisen is an American financier and investor and was vice president of BlackRock before becoming portfolio manager at Thiel Capital in 2008. His surname has strong roots in Baden, Germany.

Take a close look at the logo. The logo is directly related to the Greek word logos, meaning "word", "reason", or "speech". Who bit the apple? Eve. Who is the second Eve? Mary. Who is the second Adam and the logos? Christ.

Founders Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne, now in his 90s, are Jews. Steve Jobs, deceased, was adopted, and his biological father was Abdulfattah Jandali, a Syrian Muslim immigrant to the US.

Three figures
The three figures of speech of Greek derivation, as defined by Aristotle, whose philosophy was incorporated into Catholic philosophy by Thomas Aquinas, and that form the bedrock of effective persuasion by appealing to an audience's trust, feelings, and intellect, and must be faced by every writer are
  1. ethos: credibility of character
  2. pathos: emotion, contained
  3. logos: logic, reason

Google AI Overview

Q. What language did Clare speak?
A. Clare (born Chiara Offreduccio) spoke the Umbrian dialect of Italian, the local vernacular, and was educated in Latin. She lived in Assisi, Italy, when the local Romance vernacular was developing into what is recognized as modern Italian. As a noblewoman, she would have been educated and proficient in Latin, which was the official language of the Church, of education, and of formal writing. Her personal writings, including her Rule for the Order of Poor Ladies (now the Poor Clares), were composed in Latin. She used these written words to evangelize and counsel others, such as Agnes of Prague, also sanctified. (end of Google AI assist)

Saint Francis of Assisi cut off most of Clare's long hair 
on Palm Sunday in 1212 when she ran away from her noble family to join him, symbolizing her renunciation of worldly life, wealth, and vanity. He gave her a rough brown habit and cord, marking her entry into religious life.

...The transfer to federal court is a strategic move by prosecutors. Unlike the D.C. Superior Court, which does not allow the death penalty, the federal system provides this option. This shift underscores the severity with which authorities are approaching the case.

Sarah Beckstrom’s death has left an indelible mark on her family and community. At just 20 years old, her life was cut short in a violent act near one of the nation’s most symbolic locations. Her parents now face the holidays without her, a pain compounded by the ongoing legal proceedings.

Andrew Wolfe, the other victim, survived the attack but sustained serious injuries. His recovery process is expected to be long and arduous, with lasting physical and emotional effects. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the risks faced by service members even on domestic soil...

22 children see UAP

12/26/2025

Google AI Overview
​
Q. Who are the 22 children who witnessed a UAP event?
A. The "22 children who witnessed a UFO" refers to the famous Aerial School UFO incident in Ruwa, Zimbabwe, in 1994, where over 60 students (ages 6-12) reported seeing a large, metallic craft land, with beings emerging who communicated telepathically about environmental destruction and human responsibility. Harvard psychiatrist John Mack interviewed the children, finding their consistent accounts credible, though skeptics suggest mass hysteria or misidentification. The incident remains a significant case in UFO lore, explored in documentaries like Encounters and The Ariel Phenomenon, with children maintaining their stories years later.

Key Details of the Ariel School Incident:
  1. Date & Location: September 1994, Ariel School in Ruwa, Zimbabwe
  2. The Event: During morning recess, children saw a shiny, disc-like object in nearby bushes.
  3. The Beings: Figures with large eyes, small noses, and mouths emerged, communicating messages about pollution, technology, and the planet's future.
  4. The Message: Children received warnings that humans should care for the Earth and not become too technologically advanced without wisdom.
  5. Investigation: Dr. John Mack, a Harvard psychiatrist, interviewed the children and teachers, believing their stories were genuine.
  6. Skepticism: Some explanations include mass hysteria, a prank (perhaps involving puppet shows), or misidentifying a dust devil.
  7. Aftermath: The children, interviewed years later, still stand by their accounts, which were documented in media and studies, impacting their lives.

​The incident is featured in the Netflix series Encounters and the documentary The Ariel Phenomenon. BBC's Witness History also covered the event, highlighting its significance in UFO history.

​Nicholas of Cusa (1401 – 1464)
He was a German Catholic cardinal bishop polymath, active as a philosopher, theologian, jurist, mathematician, and astronomer, and known for making spiritual and political contributions to European culture. A notable example of this is his mystical/spiritual writings on "learned ignorance".

Cusa finished writing De docta ignorantia (On learned ignorance/on scientific ignorance), a book on philosophy and theology in 1440. Earlier scholars had discussed the question of "learned ignorance".

I
Augustine of Hippo (354-430)
St. Augustine wrote,
"Est ergo in nobis quaedam, ut dicam, docta ignorantia, sed docta spiritu dei, qui adiuvat infirmitatem nostram."
"There is therefore in us a certain learned ignorance, so to speak — an ignorance which we learn from that Spirit of God who helps our infirmities."

He explains that the working of the Holy Ghost among men and women, despite their human insufficiency, is a learned ignorance.

II
Pseudo-Dionysus the Areopagite (5th-6th century)
He advised his reader to ἀγνώστως ἀνατάθητι, to "strive upwards unknowingly".

​III
Bonaventura of Bagnoregio (1221-1274)
St. Bonaventure declared,
"Spiritus noster non-solum efficitur agilis ad ascensum verum etiam quadam ignorantia docta supra se ipsum rapitur in caliginem et excessum.
"Our spirit not only becomes agile for ascent, but also by a certain learned ignorance is carried beyond itself into darkness and excess."

A different translation makes that more understandable: "
We are lifted into divine knowing without directly striving for it." That is what happened to me at a very young age, and now I can express it in simple language.

Ventura County, CA, and its county seat, the city of Ventura, are named after him.

For Cusa, docta ignorantia meant that because mankind cannot grasp the infinity of a deity through rational knowledge, the limits of science need to be passed by means of speculation. This mode of inquiry blurs the borders between science and ignorantia. Both reason and a supra-rational understanding are needed to understand God. This leads to the coincidentia oppositorum, a union of opposites, a belief common to the Middle Ages.

Math
He wrote on squaring the circle in his mathematical treatises. "Squaring the circle" is an ancient geometric problem about constructing a square with the exact same area as a given circle, using only a compass and straightedge. It was proven impossible in 1882 because π is a transcendental number, meaning its value can't be the root of a simple polynomial equation, which is required for such constructions. The phrase has become a metaphor for attempting an impossible task or reconciling opposites, appearing in philosophy and mysticism.

Astronomy
The astronomical views of the cardinal are scattered throughout his philosophical treatises. They evince complete independence of traditional doctrines, though they are based on symbolism of numbers, combinations of letters, and abstract speculations, rather than observation.

"The earth is a star like other stars, is not the center of the universe, is not at rest, nor are its poles fixed. The celestial bodies are not strictly spherical, nor are their orbits circular. The difference between theory and appearance is explained by relative motion."

IV
Copernicus 1473-1543
​The Catholic Encyclopedia (1913 Edition) states that had Canon Copernicus been aware of these assertions, he might have been encouraged to publish his own monumental work.
