Puerto Rico is suffering. So are Californians through massive fires; Texans still recovering from hurricanes and earthquakes, Floridians ditto. Now yesterday, the Philippines suffered tremendous disasters. Our prayers and support need to be with them.
We are having a quiet family celebration at home. I wish the same for you and your loved ones through this Christmas season and the realities of the fast approaching New Year of 2018.
Stay tuned!

Flashback: British Actress Says Weinstein Used Oprah As Bait For Sex.
Says Oprah duped her into thinking Weinstein would help her career.
Television personality Oprah Winfrey lectured America about the pervasive sexual abuse culture in Hollywood during her Golden Globes speech Sunday.
What Winfrey failed to mention was her close relationship with disgraced producer Harvey Weinstein, a fact British actress Kadian Noble brought up in November as the #MeToo fallout was in full swing.
Noble said at a press conference in Manhattan that she had met Weinstein in 2014 at an event in London with Oprah “swinging off his arm,” which Noble said impressed her because she was hoping to advance her career.
“I thought, obviously, this man has something amazing in store for me,” she said at the conference.
Instead, Weinstein gave empty promises of career advancement to lure Noble to his hotel in France, where he allegedly raped her.
“I felt completely played,” she said. “I still can hear the rattle from his belt, like him undoing his belt while he had grip of me.”
“It seemed like it went on forever and he basically took, just completely touched me inappropriately and got me to put — force my hand in places,” she added.
The incident prompted Noble to file a sex trafficking lawsuit against Weinstein in a Manhattan federal court in November.
“Harvey wasn’t acting alone. Harvey wasn’t allowed and enabled to do what he did to Kadian and other women without help,” said Noble’s attorney, Jeff Herman.
At least 30 actresses, including Angelina Jolie and Gwenyth Paltrow, have come forward against Weinstein, alleging he used his enormous power to sexually assault them without fear of reprisal.
Given Weinstein and Oprah’s cozy relationship, her condescending speech promising “a new day on the horizon” for “all the women who have endured years of abuse and assault” is not just ironic, but deeply hypocritical.
Consider this photo of Oprah and Weinstein at the Critic’s Choice Awards in 2014, showing Oprah appearing to suckle Weinstein’s right ear.
...
Think that’s an exaggeration? Just look at Weinstein’s left ear, which shows a large hanging earlobe absent on his right side – because it’s in Oprah’s mouth.
Nevertheless, that didn’t stop the left and mainstream media from pushing her as their new favorite choice for presidential candidate in the 2020 election.

Oprah met secretly with Soros, Rockefeller to discuss population reduction!
Oprah Winfrey met in secret with George Soros and other billionaires to discuss a plan to depopulate the world.
The 2009 meeting in Manhattan, organized by Bill Gates, was so discreet that the billionaires’ aides were told to treat it as a “security briefing,” and attendees also included the late David Rockefeller, Warren Buffett, Ted Turner and Michael Bloomberg, in addition to Oprah and Soros.
“Taking their cue from Gates, they agreed that overpopulation was a priority,” reported The Sunday Times in describing the meeting, which revolved around population reduction starting with third-world countries.
They kept the meeting secret because they feared the media painting it as an “alternative world government,” which isn’t far from the truth given the speculation that Oprah will soon attempt a White House run backed by the very billionaires who attended the meeting.
Interestingly, meeting attendee Ted Turner once proposed cutting down the world population to around 250 million people, a 95% decrease that would necessitate a major war or virus pandemic.
“We only learnt about [the meeting] afterwards, by accident,” said Chronicle of Philanthropy editor Stacy Palmer. “Normally these people are happy to talk good causes, but this is different – maybe because they don’t want to be seen as a global cabal.”
But that’s actually how they were acting; notice how the meeting wasn’t attended by anyone representing the third-world. Rather, it was billionaires dictating their global scheme for world populations.
This is the very definition of elitism, and it reveals how a hypothetical Oprah administration would operate: transnational billionaires deciding the fate of America behind closed doors with no input from its own citizens.
This isn’t very far removed from how the Obama administration operated, given that President Obama was a member of the Trilateral Commission and thus acted more like a vassal for global interests than an independent American president.

Weinstein accusers claim they WEREN'T INVITED to Golden Globes!
Rose McGowan and Asia Argento accused Harvey Weinstein of rape, which acted as a catalyst for the #MeToo and Time’s Up movements — but they, like Marchesa gowns, were conspicuously absent from the 2018 Golden Globes.
The women, along with several of Weinstein’s other accusers, claim that they weren’t invited to the event.
“I can only speak for myself but not only I wasn’t invited to the #GoldenGlobes: nobody asked my opinion about #TIMESUP or to sign the letter,” Argento, 42, tweeted Monday morning. “I support @TIMESUPNOW even though I was excluded from it. Guess I am not POWERFUL or HOLLYWOOD enough. Proud to work behind the scenes.”
On Sunday, Argento tweeted to McGowan, “No one should forget that you were the first one who broke the silence. Anyone who tries to diminish your work is a troll and an enemy of the movement. You gave me the courage to speak out. I am on your side until I die.”
McGowan, 44, replied, “And not one of those fancy people wearing black to honor our rapes would have lifted a finger had it not been so. I have no time for Hollywood fakery, but you I love, @AsiaArgento.”
...
Argento (said) of the omission...
“Victims aren’t glamorous enough.”

WELCOME TO THE BRAVE NEW WORLD
SEX CRIMINALS REVEALED ON A LARGE SCALE
But the press will only go so far. Then the curtain drops…
We are seeing some exposure of sexual predators. But there are very large cases already out in the open.
And the press carries out its prime directive: cover the issue BUT don’t follow up, don’t reveal the stunning implications.
Here are just three examples of many—
LA Times, 10/27/11: “The addresses for more than 1,000 state-licensed care facilities for vulnerable people in California matched addresses on the state sex offender registry, according to a newly released audit.”
What?? How were 1000 registered sex offenders allowed to attach themselves to care facilities, or even worse, organize the facilities? And are we supposed to believe these 1000 occurrences were independent of each other? Or were they the result of an overall plan? No press follow-up.
“State Auditor Elaine M. Howle said the California Department of Social Services failed to check the sex offender registry even after her office advised it to do so in 2008.”
“The facilities matching the registry of sex offenders included foster homes, group homes and day-care facilities for children, as well as facilities for adults with special needs and the elderly.”
“Investigations are now complete and the state said eight licenses have been revoked or suspended and regulators issued 31 orders barring individuals from licensed facilities.”
What?? A thousand registered sex offenders are connected to care-facilities, but only 39 actions have been taken? Again, no press follow-up.
CBS News, May 5, 2014: “The Vatican revealed Tuesday that over the past decade, it has defrocked 848 priests who raped or molested children and sanctioned another 2,572 with lesser penalties, providing the first ever breakdown of how it handled the more than 3,400 cases of abuse reported to the Holy See since 2004.”
“The Vatican’s U.N. ambassador in Geneva, Archbishop Silvano Tomasi, released the figures during a second day of grilling by a U.N. committee monitoring implementation of the U.N. treaty against torture.”
“Only in 2010 did the Vatican explicitly tell bishops and superiors to also report credible cases to police where local reporting laws require them to.”
What?? “Where reporting laws REQUIRE THEM to”? In other words, as far as the Vatican is concerned, if there is no explicit law, HIDE THE CRIMES. This in itself is not a major press story? Where is the deep follow-up?
“The figures, however, only cover cases handled directly by the Holy See, not those handled by local diocesan tribunals, meaning the total number of sanctioned priests is likely far higher.”
“The latest spike began in 2010, when 464 cases were reported, more than twice the amount in 2009. Starting in that same year, the Vatican began resorting more and more to the lesser penalty of sentencing accused priests to a lifetime of penance and prayer rather than defrocking them. The Vatican often metes out such sentences for elderly or infirm priests, since defrocking them would essentially render them destitute in their final years.”
What?? As more cases were reported, the Vatican took LIGHTER ACTIONS against the sex-criminal priests. That’s another major press investigation that never happened...

To Anon. @ 11:56 AM ...
Pedophilia has its roots firmly planted in Satanism. It is the antithesis of God's love and grace. Pedophilia scars these innocent little children for life, both physically and spiritually.
The incredible evil that Rome has enabled, covered-up, perpetuated ... ranks as the worst of crimes against humanity. And, this not some modern day phenomenon. It has been going on for hundreds of years! Charles Chiniquay wrote extensively about it in "50 Years in the Church of Rome." His accounts, from the 19th. century, are mirror images of Rome's modern day tactics regarding cover-ups, etc. Personally, my own grandmother suffered unspeakable abuse in a Catholic "orphanage" in Vienna, Austria ... she was born in 1879! She lived to be 89 years old, and for the rest of her life, she refused to ever enter a Catholic Church again. Countless accounts of these crimes exist and are very well documented by the victims, and yet, there is very little outrage by the media and general public. Why is that?
I'm not a Baptist, but, just try to imagine the public hysteria if say the Southern Baptists were guilty of the same crimes, while refusing to cooperate (unless forced) with the authorities? Imagine if a Baptist institution was involved in pay for silence, transferring pedophile ministers to other churches, etc., etc.?
The raw political and economic power the RCC has is illustrated by what they get away with.

When are you people going to wake up and realize that pedophilia and child trafficking is EVERYWHERE!!! It is a worldwide scandal of epidemic proportions. And if you think that the those within the Protestant church denominations are immune and haven't participated... you obviously aren't paying attention!!! So, climb down off your high horse... you are just looking foolish and naïve.
Anon @ 5:30 PM ...
No one is saying that it is only limited to the confines of the Catholic Church.
What I AM SAYING is that this Church/State is unlike any other in the entire world, and as an INSTITUTION it has conspired, covered-up, payed for the silence of its victims, transferred KNOWN pedophile priests to other parishes, withheld evidence and information from the authorities, obstructed justice, etc., etc.
Please, NAME ONE SINGLE institution on earth that has done what the RCC has done ... just one.
What was that you were saying about looking "foolish and naive?"
"Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil."
RayB,
I understand what you are saying and the point you are making but Anonymous 5:30 PM is understandably, I think, upset at what looks to be a singling out of RCC. RCC has, unfortunately, amongst its ranks, as do other churches (and organizations in general) pedophiles. Whether one group or another happens to be more culpable than others and over-emphasizing so is really not a great way to begin to address this problem. ALL pedophilia EVERYWHERE MUST BE STAMPED OUT and only by uniting against it wherever it may be without regard one way or the other as to the group or organization in which it is found may it most effectively be dealt with and eliminated. Allowing our anti-pedophilia forces to be divided by putting out a hierarchy list of worst offenders with the RCC at the top is counter-productive to the goal. Do you think that Catholics WANT pedophilia in their church? Of course you don't! So, rather than emphasize one group of another, let's get ALL the pedophiles out by working TOGETHER!
CORRECTION:
Whether one group or another happens to be more culpable than others and over-emphasizing that fact in speaking about pedophilia is really not a great way to begin to address this problem.

Anon @ 7:14 PM said to RayB (in part):
"RCC has, unfortunately, amongst its ranks, as do other churches (and organizations in general) pedophiles."
You are equating what the Vatican and its co-conspirators (Bishops, Cardinals, Priests, etc.) have done with "other churches." Name one other "church" institution that has bribed for silence its victims, transferred pedophiles into other churches, hid evidence, refused to cooperate with authorities, obstructed justice, etc., etc. Again ... NAME ONE.
Anon also said:
"Do you think that Catholics WANT pedophilia in their church? Of course you don't!"
Of course ordinary Catholics do not want their priests molesting their children. That is precisely why MILLIONS of Catholics with a good conscience have left this filthy institution. They have rightly concluded that the Church hierarchy has perpetuated this perversion by enabling these perverts to continue on in the "system."
Anon concludes with this gem:
"So, rather than emphasize one group of another, let's get ALL the pedophiles out by working TOGETHER!"
Right. Let's not "emphasize" that a professed "Christian" institution has coddled pedophile priests for hundreds of years, and enabled them to continue on in their perversion against children! Let's just ignore the thousands of crimes that they have gotten away with. I'd love to see you tell that to a gathering of Rome's victims.
Maybe you could write a letter to the Pope informing him that you'd like to help in getting "ALL the pedophiles out by working TOGETHER!" I'm sure if you look real hard, you'll find another person to sign it besides yourself.
RayB,
That's NOT how it's meant. NO, NONE of the bad things the RCC OR ANY OTHER CHURCH OR GROUP should be ignored. The point is to not FIXATE on the RCC.

To Ray B. @ 6:01 PM
Re: "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil."
Stop twisting my words. You are deflecting from my valid point that EVIL exists in every group and in every institution... and that pedophilia and child trafficking is epidemic throughout the world... and is not limited to, or exclusive with, people within the Catholic Church. I want nothing more than to see all of those who would DARE to hurt children to be rounded up, thrown in prison... with no chance for parole!!!
RayB,
You do highlight the grossness within the RCC a lot. I do believe there are true believers found within their ranks.
And yes, it is most certainly found in other denominations, institutions, etc., a lot also, no stone unturned, sad to say.
None of this should be ignored, very true. God will certainly address this and the much more His eyes see.
However, no other denomination is at the front of the pack in this grossness quite like the RCC, that is fact. And systemic, in part, because of their own imposed high-minded limitations in not allowing their priesthood to marry and because it is an organization that promotes a religious elitism that goes back to it's inception. Apostle Paul warned believers everywhere about those who sought preeminence among them. A snare of the flesh in this pridefulness at the outset, that perpetuates extra gross sin in the flesh because the spiritual sin preceding it in that willfulness, is the cyclical prompt for that..and a host of other ills that go with.
The dark ages were called the dark ages for a reason, and the world was covered extensively by a Roman Catholic cloak at that time. And great darkness is cycling again..one last time, I hope.
So the influence has spread far and wide.
A barometer of our times in this apostate age.
Come quickly, Lord Jesus.
RayB,
As I've said before, I find MANY things you say VERY good, so I don't dislike you, just the opposite. However, you are hardly more against religious corruption than I am (including in the RCC) although you have that impression. I do not need to see the video you recommended because I am VERY well aware of the sexual immorality problems of the far past up to the current times in the RCC. No, friend, my desire is simply that we try our best not to alienate people who would otherwise gladly join us in rooting out pedophiles from the RCC. Maybe it's not easy to both fully expose AND not offend BUT that DOESN'T mean we shouldn't at least TRY is all I'm trying to say. Constance, for example, was upset by The Two Babylons book. Well, I happen to like that book a lot. Yet, your response to Constance was well said, eliminating the need for me to jump in there. (I was the one who posted The Two Babylons book link in the first place!) Peace, RayB! Go get 'em tiger!

To Anonymous @ 12:20 PM -
Well, I guess you might as well accuse Jesus of being an 'elitist' too. When He chose his 12 apostles to come follow Him, He made the decision to select 12 men... NOT 6 men and 6 women.
When He created the Catholic Church and made Peter the first Pope, He said...
"And I say unto you, that thou art Peter and upon this rock I will build my Church, and THE GATES OF HELL SHALL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST IT." (Matthew 16:18 KJV)
So... we have the PROMISE of Jesus Himself that, try as he might, Satan will NOT be successful in destroying the Catholic Church!!! The Catholic Church will survive... and any evil forces within will be purged and destroyed.
That's quite the knee jerk response you gave, @ 2:32 PM.
You need to reread and see how broad the statement is to include everyone.
Sadly, the RCC has been leading the pack in this particular issue brought up by RayB, along with many others following suit, which I clearly pointed out.
But whatever...
God sees. He'll clean house, the whole house.
WHAT JESUS MEANT
So, was Jesus really building the Church on Peter (and his successors) in Matthew 16:18? Let’s look more closely at the verse.
Understanding this passage in its original language, Greek, provides the key to understanding what Christ meant. Jesus used a wordplay that isn’t clear when read in English. First, Jesus used the word Petros when referring to Peter: “I also say to you that you are Peter [Petros].” He then used a similar-sounding word to describe what He was building His Church on: Petra. “And on this rock [petra] I will build My church.”
So, Christ’s statement actually reads like this: “I also say to you that you are Petros, and on this petra I will build My Church.”
Peter’s given name was Simon Bar-Jonah, but Christ had given him the nickname Cephas—an Aramaic word meaning “A Stone” (John 1:42). Petros in Matthew 16:18 is the Greek form of the nickname. The meaning of both Cephas and Petros is the same: “a fragment, a stone” (Zondervan Expository Dictionary of Bible Words, pp. 537-538). The closest English words to petros would be pebble, stone or small rock.
The second word Christ used was petra. This word also means rock, but it represents “a mass of rock” (ibid.). This word could be translated as boulder—an immovable mass. Had Christ intended to describe Peter, all He needed to say was: You are Peter and on you I will build My Church.
But He didn’t say that.
He distinguished the rock (petra) He was building the Church on from Peter (petros). The rock He was building His Church on was a rock big enough to serve as the chief cornerstone in the foundation; it was large, strong and immovable. This describes none other than Jesus Christ Himself!
The rest of the Bible clearly identifies Jesus as this rock. Jesus is called “the chief cornerstone” seven times in the New Testament (Matthew 21:42; Mark 12:10; Luke 20:17; Acts 4:11; Ephesians 2:20; 1 Peter 2:6-7). In 1 Corinthians 10:4 the apostle Paul refers to Christ as “that spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ.”
Jesus was not only the chief cornerstone, He is still the active “head of the body, the church” (Colossians 1:18; see also Ephesians 5:23). Christ did establish offices in His Church (Ephesians 4:11), but the Bible instructs those who hold offices of leadership to remain faithful to Christ’s teachings (1 Corinthians 11:1). Even Peter himself—far from claiming the authority some believe he was given—taught plainly that Christians “should follow His [Christ’s] steps” (1 Peter 2:21).
https://lifehopeandtruth.com/change/the-church/on-what-rock-did-christ-build-his-church/
Peter Was NOT The First Pope!
Here are TEN solid, Biblical proofs that Peter was not at Rome. Mark each in your Bible and understand them well, so YOU will not be deceived.
THE PRIMACY of the Roman Catholic Church depends upon one fundamental doctrine: the claim that Peter was the first Bishop of Rome and the founder of the Roman Church.
The teaching of Catholic historians tells us that Simon Peter went to Rome at the same time as Simon Magus in order to thwart his evils. This was during the reign of Claudius. After successfully combating the Magus, they tell us, Peter assumed the Roman bishopric and ruled it until the Neronian persecutions of 68 A.D., during which Peter was supposed to have been crucified upside down on Vatican hill. This is the basic story and Catholic writers never shirk in attempting to defend it. Some of them say that this general account is one of the most provable of historical events.
But is it?
The fact remains, many ecclesiastical authors of the second century, Justin Martyr among them, give information completely negating Peter's supposed Roman bishopric. This is admitted by virtually all scholars — except conservative Catholics (Ency. Biblica, col. 4554). But, more important than this, the records of the True Church of God — the writings of the New Testament — absolutely refute the Roman Catholic claim.
It is time that the world gets its eyes open to the truth of this matter — the truth, which is clearly revealed in the Word of God. The Apostle Peter was NEVER the Bishop of Rome!
The Bible Teaching
There are ten major New Testament proofs which completely disprove the claim that Peter was in Rome from the time of Claudius until Nero. These Biblical points speak for themselves and ANY ONE of them is sufficient to prove the ridiculousness of the Catholic claim. Notice what God tells us! The truth IS conclusive!
PROOF ONE: We should consider Christ's commission to Peter. This is often very embarrassing to Catholics, because Christ commissioned Peter to become chief minister to the CIRCUMCISED, not to uncircumcised Gentiles.
"The gospel of the CIRCUMCISION was unto Peter; (For He that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)" (Gal. 2:7-8).
Here we have it in the clearest of language. It was Paul, NOT Peter, who was commissioned to be the chief Apostle to the Gentiles. And who was it that wrote the Epistle to the ROMANS? It certainly WASN'T Peter!
"And when James, Cephas [Peter], and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace [i.e., the gift or office] that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision" (Gal. 2:9).
Paul further mentioned his special office as the Gentile Apostle in II Timothy 1:11:
"Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles."
PETER is NOWHERE called the Apostle to the Gentiles! This precludes him from going to Rome to become the head of a Gentile community.
PROOF TWO: Paul specifically told the Gentile Romans that HE had been chosen to be their Apostle, not Peter.
"I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable" (Rom. 15:16).
How clear!
Paul had the direct charge from Christ in this matter. He even further relates in Romans 15:18 that it was Christ who had chosen him "to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed."
PAUL Established Only TRUE Church at Rome
PROOFS THREE-TEN:

Being that the RCC makes the (false) claim that "Peter was the first Pope," do you think it is at least a little odd that the only epistles Peter wrote (I Peter & II Peter) Peter never mentions ANY of the doctrines & dogmas of the RCC?
For instance, Mary is NOT mentioned once in any way. What else is NOT mentioned even once? Here are just a few: Praying the Rosary. Rosary beads. Prayers to Mary. Veneration of Statues and Images. Prayers to "Saints." Prayers for the dead. Infant Baptism. The Sacrifice of the Mass. The Eucharist. The Sacraments of the Church. High Holy Days. The Confessional. Priests' ability to forgive sins. Marriage forbidden for Priests (and nuns). The Office and Primacy of the "pope." Peter's claim to be "pope." Peter referring to himself as "Holy Father." The Primacy of the Church of Rome above all others. The Authority of the Magisterium. Apostolic succession. Mortal & Venial sins. Penance. Purgatory, etc. etc.
There is a reason none of these inventions of Rome are not mentioned by Peter. The Peter of the Bible is not the Peter of Rome!
Trump deserves 'Big Credit' for sparking North Korea talks, South Korea's president says!

Read in this series of articles the detailed and documented account of Simon Magus and his great COUNTERFEIT CHRISTIANITY!
THE FALSE religious system began very early — almost with Pentecost in 31 A.D. Even in the earliest of Paul's epistles, he informs us that "the mystery of iniquity DOTH ALREADY WORK" (II Thess. 2:7). Paul wrote this in 50 or 51 A.D. The plot to supplant the Truth had already begun. In the later epistles of Paul and in those of the other Apostles, we find it gaining considerable momentum. However, even though the Apostles discuss the diabolical system which was arising, THEY NOWHERE MENTION HOW IT STARTED. They had no need in mentioning its beginning — that had already been done!
The book of Acts is the KEY to the understanding of Christian beginnings. Not only does it show the commencement of the TRUE Church, but it equally reveals the origins of the False Church masquerading as Christianity. Indeed, you would think it odd if the book of Acts did not discuss this vital subject...

BREAKING: Sr Network Security Engineer Reveals Twitter Ready to Give Trump's Private DMs to DOJ
Published on Jan 10, 2018
A Project Veritas undercover investigation has revealed a senior network security engineer at Twitter suggesting that his company turns over the private communications and deleted tweets of President Donald Trump to the Department of Justice. If true, it is yet unknown whether Twitter is voluntarily disclosing this sensitive information or acting under a court order. Twitter is currently in the midst of defending itself from left-leaning criticism that President Trump hasn’t been removed from the enormous media platform for violations of Twitter’s Terms of Service.

THREE GUESSES DEPT:
Why Is The FBI Afraid Of Encryption?
...
The question is, should the American people trust the FBI to keep them safe? This is the same agency that has been proven to entrap unstable individuals and claim they saved the day from big bad terrorists. This is also the same agency that has been involved in violent house raids in other nations, spying on activists, building a secret massive facial recognition database, secretly recording the public, and the list goes on. Are these really the people we should trust when they say the must break encryption and violate our privacy to keep us safe?

Yes, God will 'clean house'... and he will straighten out you 'cafeteria Christians' who carefully select (and interpret) scriptural passages to fit your own wishful thinking and agenda... and throw aside the passages that you don't like.
By the way, your 'debate' about the fact that Jesus chose Peter as the first Pope in 33 AD is obviously with Jesus... and not with me. So, it will be very interesting when you dare to confront Jesus one day and tell Him that he is 'WRONG'... and that you are 'right'!!! LOL
What is so incredibly arrogant of some of you is that the entire list of popes is DOCUMENTED HISTORY (from Peter to Francis). It's not an opinion... it's a fact.

ROFL! ;-)
In the first place, I would never dare to 'confront' Jesus about anything. And some of you 'cafeteria Christians' should learn a little more humility, too... along with 'judge not lest ye be judged'... and 'love thy neighbor as thyself'... and paying more attention to the evil and corruption going on within your own Protestant church denominations... instead of being all 'puffed up' with your own false pride, smugness and arrogance.
Funny that you make those condemnations now when it was largely what YOU said to US reflected back at YOU! Showing the Truth of the saying that 'When you point a finger, FOUR fingers are pointing back at YOU!'
I can just see you 'cafeteria Christians' meeting St. Peter for the first time. If asked how you've been spending your time lately... you will be required to answer truthfully, "Oh, we get on Constance Cumbey's blog and bash the hell out of the Catholics. It's so much fun. We're so filled with HATE and feelings of superiority, we can't even see straight... and yet, we fail to see the irony... or see any conflict with continuing to pass ourselves off as 'Christians'."
Anonymous 3:48 AM,
YOU are the one name-calling, "Mr./Ms. Cafeteria Christian" (and YOU fail to see the irony in calling us THAT when it is YOU who does not "go through the scriptures carefully to see if these things are so." like the noble Bereans). No, you simply parrot CLAIMS AS FACT and anything showing those CLAIMS ARE FALSE is not scripturally-based rebutted but instead simply branded as nothing more than hate-filled "bashing" with a topping off of superiority. For someone who just yesterday admonished "judge not" then IMMEDIATELY JUDGED US AS "being all 'puffed up' with your own false pride, smugness and arrogance." your self-blind hypocrisy is quite AMAZING. Name-calling because you COULDN'T refute the scripturally-based articles on their own merits, attacking the MESSENGERS rather than admit that what they said was right.
Sad. HERE'S an idea: Let's try sticking to academic discussions WITHOUT the hysterical name-calling!
Why DESPAIR, NOT PLEASURE, Is The Biggest Driver Of Today’s Sex Scandals
Another cultural icon bites the dust. We typically picture the movers and shakers in Silicon Valley as brilliant if geeky walking intellects hunched over their computers inventing new gadgets.
But this week Vanity Fair published a book excerpt by Emily Chang revealing that Silicon Valley is as sexually debauched as Hollywood, politics, and the media. The titans of the tech world—entrepreneurs, executives, investors, founders of companies—regularly host drug-fueled, sex-laced parties.
Women in the tech industry often feel compelled to attend to get ahead in their careers. But the reality is that joining the party often stalls their careers, as they are reduced to sex objects instead of respected as whole persons. Progress? More like regress.
Chang’s book fuels the post-Weinstein wave of outrage. Yet merely exposing scandals may not “produce a revolution or a reckoning or a sea change in attitudes,” warns Jim Glassman, a journalist and former Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs, in another Vanity Fair piece.
For real reform, we have to dig deeper. A hedonistic ethic pervades all our public institutions. Universities hold sex weeks where porn stars are speakers and sex toy companies display their wares. Students attend workshops... (where) the message is: Don’t be boring. Be like porn stars.
It should surprise no one that the hookup culture is metastasizing on campuses. The rules of the game are: no relationship, no emotional attachment, no commitment. You are supposed to be able to walk away from a hookup as if it never happened...

BREAKING: CLINTON FOUNDATION INDICTMENTS LINKED TO WEAPONS DEALS AFTER NEW PROBE FINISHED

Helena Blavatsky is the Mother of the New Age Movement. Mahatma Gandhi said that: "Theosophy is the teaching of Madame Blavatsky. It is Hinduism at its best." Paramahansa Yogananda (1893–1952) was a Hindu who is widely revered as the Father of Yoga in the West. He wrote:
The projected consciousness of God immanent in all creation ... [is] in Christian scripture, the 'only begotten son,' the only pure reflection in creation of God the Father; in Hindu scripture, Kutastha Chaitanya or Tat, the universal consciousness, or cosmic intelligence, of Spirit everywhere present in creation. (The terms 'Christ Consciousness' and 'Christ Intelligence' are synonymous, as also 'Cosmic Christ' ...) It is the universal consciousness, oneness with God [in creation, as, the less than divine, world soul (which is not the highest state of consciousness) ], manifested by Jesus, Krishna, and other avatars. Great saints and yogis know it as the state of samadhi meditation wherein their consciousness has become identified with the divine intelligence [degraded down to the world soul intelligence] in every particle of creation; they feel the entire universe as their own body."
Yogananda also quoted John 14:6 "I [the Cosmic Christ]) am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father (mergence in Spirit beyond creation), but by me (ascension through the Christ Consciousness [or the Cosmic Christ] omnipresent in creation)."
Yogananda also wrote, that when a person has reached the highest state of consciousness he\she feels "the ever-bubbling Bliss that dances in every particle of his little body, and in his big Cosmic Body of the universe, and in his absolute nature as one with the Eternal Spirit [the 'Father"] beyond manifested forms [or beyond the creation]."
In respect to Jesus Christ's "big body" (the universe) he is the Cosmic Christ, and in respect to Jesus Christ's "absolute nature" He is One with Spirit (His "Father") beyond the creation.
Teilhard de Chardin said we have to "become one with the universe to be saved." Rev. Matthew Fox said: "Our true nature is the earth," which David Spangler, a New Age prophet, said is the world soul, and that it includes the entire universe. Mr. Spangler believes that we are saved when we become One with Spirit beyond the creation. This is New Age theology.

Re: "So, was Jesus really building the Church on Peter (and his successors) in Matthew 16:18? Let’s look more closely at the verse... Understanding this passage in its original language, Greek, provides the key to understanding what Christ meant. Jesus used a WORDPLAY that isn’t clear when read in English..."
___________________________________________________________________________________________
Using no other scriptural passage do you 'cafeteria Christians' DARE to have the AUDACITY to suggest that Jesus had to resort to 'wordplay'... as if Jesus didn't know what He was saying nearly 2,000 years ago... and it's now up to some of you ('cafeteria Christians' who hate the Catholic Church) to decipher the words of Jesus. As if Jesus thought it would be fun to use mind games spoken in 'code' to try and confuse everyone... for some of you to later provide your own interpretation as to what you WANT His words to mean... or, more importantly, what you think they SHOULD mean!!!
No, Jesus spoke LOUD AND CLEAR when He said these words: "And I say unto you, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall NOT prevail against it." Matthew 16:18 (KJV)
And by the way, Jesus was building His Church for EVERYONE when he designated Peter to be the first Pope. Jesus never intended for people like Martin Luther and King Henry VIII to provide 'spin offs'... it was due to their sin of PRIDE that brought about the many Protestant denominations, that fell away from the Catholic Church. THESE are the church denominations which came from 'man' (along with revisions to scripture)... not from God!!!
Isn't it also ironic that Jesus handed Peter the keys to the kingdom of heaven?
"And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." Matthew 16:19 (KJV)
"There are none so blind as those who will not see!"
Had Christ intended to describe Peter, all He needed to say was: You are Peter and on you I will build My Church.
But He didn’t say that.
He distinguished the rock (petra) He was building the Church on from Peter (petros). The rock He was building His Church on was a rock big enough to serve as the chief cornerstone in the foundation; it was large, strong and immovable. This describes none other than Jesus Christ Himself!
The rest of the Bible clearly identifies Jesus as this rock. Jesus is called “the chief cornerstone” seven times in the New Testament (Matthew 21:42; Mark 12:10; Luke 20:17; Acts 4:11; Ephesians 2:20; 1 Peter 2:6-7). In 1 Corinthians 10:4 the apostle Paul refers to Christ as “that spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ.”
"he\she feels "the ever-bubbling Bliss"

New Age theology: Revelation 22:16 [KJV] "I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star [Lucifer]." Jesus has a Luciferian mission to lead us to Christhood (or, to the "Cosmic Christ" state of consciousness, which is oneness with the world soul, who's body is the earth and the entire universe. And Jesus also has a mission beyond his Luciferian mission. He has a Son of God mission to lead us to Oneness with His unqualified Absolute transcendent "Father" (who is Spirit) beyond creation.
Years ago, I noticed that the RCC is like a Chameleon, in that it changes according to whichever way the winds of society blows.
Here are a few examples to illustrate this point:
The perversion of Homosexuality is sweeping the entire world ("the whole world lieth in wickedness"). As society continues to become more and more depraved, what is the Pope's answer? Repentance, as Christ warned "Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise parish?" Not hardly. Pope Francis is sending a loud and clear message, not only by his words, but by his actions.
Check out the following: Pope Francis’ appointed Brazilian Bishop makes that claim that “Homosexuality is not an option, but rather, a gift from God.”
https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/bishop-when-you-look-at-homosexuality-you-cannot-say-its-an-option-...-but
Here is another message that Francis is declaring loud and clear. Francis appointed a “pro-LGBT Priest” Auxiliary Bishop in San Diego, CA.
https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/pope-francis-names-pro-lgbt-priest-as-auxiliary-bishop-in-san-diego
Palermo, Italy Bishop removes priest from pastoral duties, because the priest had the audacity to “uphold traditional Catholic teachings on marriage.”
https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/sicilian-priest-pays-a-price-for-upholding-authentic-church-teaching-on-mar
More happenings under the watchful eye of Pope Francis:
Homosexual sex inside the Vatican is at an all-time high. A CARDINAL makes the claim that “we should emphasize the positive side of Gay unions.” This very same Cardinal was linked to gay orgies that took place inside the Vatican. You simply can’t make this stuff up!
https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/top-vatican-official-gay-sex-in-vatican-never-been-worse-than-under-francis
Far more true stories could have been cited above.
When you consider all this, it gives Pope Francis's infamous statement regarding Homosexuals, it takes on a different dimension: "Gays that seek the Lord and do good will go to heaven. Who am I to judge?"

Dear Constance,
The key to understanding Prometheus Books lies in understanding its humanist publisher/founder Paul Kurtz. His obituary is instructive.
Paul Kurtz, 86, Humanist Publisher, Dies
...In 1973, as editor of the magazine The Humanist, Professor Kurtz drafted what came to be known as Humanist Manifesto II, in which he updated a 1933 document by addressing issues that the earlier document, which was largely a critique of theism, had failed to touch on, among them nuclear arms, population control, racism and sexism.
The document was signed by 120 religious leaders, philosophers, scientists and writers, including the dissident Soviet physicist Andrei D. Sakharov; Dr. Francis Crick, a discoverer of the structure of the DNA molecule; and the novelist Isaac Asimov. It argued for a system of world law that would “transcend the limits of national sovereignty.”
“Traditional dogmatic or authoritarian religions that place revelation, God, ritual or creed above human needs and experience do a disservice to the human species,” the document said.
In its best-known dictum, it declared, “No deity will save us; we must save ourselves.”
In 1980, in response to the conservative religious movement the Moral Majority, Professor Kurtz founded the journal Free Inquiry. In its inaugural issue he drafted another statement, “A Secular Humanist Declaration,” in which he warned that “the reappearance of dogmatic authoritarian religions” had become a threat to intellectual freedom, human rights and scientific progress. The statement, signed by 61 scholars, directed its objections toward “fundamentalist, literalist and doctrinaire Christianity; a rapidly growing and uncompromising Muslim clericalism in the Middle East and Asia; the reassertion of orthodox authority by the Roman Catholic papal hierarchy; nationalist religious Judaism; and the reversion to obscurantist religions in Asia.”....read more....

____________________________________________________________________________
Kurtz's strong objections to "the reassertion of orthodox authority by the Roman Catholic papal hierarchy" is one likely reason why Paul L. Williams' anti-Vatican writings have been published by Prometheus Books
Since the modern day "utopias" known as secular humanism and communism have received such bad press over the years (probably because they haven't worked) the term "eupraxsophy" was coined by Kurtz to serve as the new moniker for both.
cont.
cont.
Eupraxsophy?
The term eupraxsophy (originally eupraxophy) is based on the Greek words for “good,” “practice,” and “wisdom.” It was coined by prominent secular humanist Paul Kurtz to refer to a philosophy or life-stance that is exuberant yet not based on a transcendent or supernatural belief-system.
Examples would include Confucianism, some forms of Buddhism, and Secular Humanism. A eupraxsophy is a life that is ethical, moral, purposeful, and fulfilling. Instead of relying on faith, mysticism, or revelation to lead a meaningful and productive life, a “eupraxsophite” will apply reason, logic, empiricism and science toward that end.
Freethinking is vital to understanding (and ultimately bettering) ourselves and the world around us. So it's more than just a nonreligious worldview. Rather than merely emphasize an absence of faith, as atheism or agnosticism do, a eupraxsophy develops something meaningful in its place.....read more....
http://eupraxsophy.tumblr.com/abouteupraxsophy
___________________________________________________________
When all is said and done, "eupraxsophy" sounds like an elitist euphemism for "atheism" to me. A Catholic commentator made the following tongue-in-cheek comment about Eupraxsophy:
There's been a certain humor in the way the Communist parties of Europe have been falling over themselves to change their names to something more palatable. The same kind of thing has been happening among secular humanists. Many of them don't like to be called secular humanists, you see. Paul Kurtz, professor of philosophy at SUNY Buffalo, has a solution: a new moniker. Secular humanism will now be known as eupraxophy. (Try to say that three times fast.) The word comes from eu (good) plus praxis (practice) plus sophia (wisdom). "Good practical wisdom"--hey, isn't that Catholicism?

As for Paul L. Williams, he is a self-professed Tridentine or "traditionalist" Catholic who apparently had ties with the late Father Malachi Martin. On account of his affiliation with Malachi Martin, I would also go as far as to suggest he may also be a sedevacantist. Sedevacantists believe that there has been no valid Pope occupying the Chair of Peter since the papacy of Pope Pius XII. Indeed, Williams was one traditionalist who jumped on the band wagon to support the "Siri conspiracy" according to which Cardinal Siri should have been elected Pope but was not - due to machinations of his modernist enemies in the Vatican.
The following describes why Williams' credibility as an "investigative journalist" might leave something to be desired - especially as it pertains to his work on the Siri saga.
...Williams went from writing books about the minutes of novus ordo USCCB meetings - i.e. paint drying on the wall is more interesting - to his 2004 crossover work of 'Money, Murder and the Mafia in the Vatican' in which the CIA (& Mossad) used him to troll the Siri groupies about secret FBI & State Dept. documents affirming Siri's election.
Nope!
A small research contingent persisted in FOIA requests over a couple years, in spite of reclassification of previously declassified material, even contacted Williams ourselves and none of his file numbers were accurate, and finally obtained EVERYTHING they had in the FBI & State files for the Vatican for a seven year period amounting to a four and a half foot tall stack of documents - AND THERE IS NOTHING IN THERE!
Later when Williams was again contacted and pressured, he backpeddled and stammered and again LIED OUT HIS A** that Siri's election was only something he and Malachi Martin had been told by Avro Manhattan when they were working for the National Review. In other words the statement of the existence of the documents is a complete lie and now by the notice your poster received it appears he may now be doing it again.
After the 2004 book all the books he wrote trolled the neocon spook storyline of A-l Q-u-a-e-d-a and loose n-u-k-e-s. He finally shut up for awhile after he accused McGill University in Montreal of having missing 'radioactive material' and they planned to sue him.
So what do the two tall tales have in common - because after Oswald they wised up and never used the same troll or patsy on two unconnected plots: i.e. setting up a new nuclear version of The Gunpowder Plot targeting Rome and trolling one individual in particular to be used as the Guy Fawkes patsy to take down all traditional Catholics with him. Williams specifically went on about finally convincing Tom Clancy that one individual was capable of partnering with and financing a radical Muslim group in a possible urban venture of this sort. Shooting off his mouth to Clancy about this is what in my opinion got Clancy "Breitbarted".
At the time I was wondering if Williams was going to 'convert' to traddie-land to further the deception. Now that he is claiming to have done so I am going back on the alert.

__________________________________________
What many people don't know is that Avro Manhattan is a conspiracy theorist who has been employed by creatures like Jack Chick as an anti-Catholic writer for Chick's anti-Catholic newspaper "The Battle Cry."
cont.
cont.
According to the Catholic League in its survey of Jack chick publications, when it comes to conspiracy-minded plots that implicate the Vatican, few can top Avro Manhattan.
...Chick Publications loves to publish books that promote devil’s theories, but when it comes to conspiracy-minded plots that implicate the Vatican, few can top Avro Manhattan. In his best-selling work, The Vatican Billions, Manhattan sets the tone right from the start: “Christ was born, lived and died in poverty. His `church’ is a multi-, multi-billion concern.” In fact, the Catholic Church is “the wealthiest institution on earth.” But how did it get so rich? My favorite story is the one about the end of the first millennium.
It seems that as the year 1000 grew near, the people of Europe became nervous. Recalling tales about the end of the world, and remembering the Biblical injunction that it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven, Catholics began unloading their loot. The depository, of course, was the Church.
“When,” writes Manhattan, “following the long night of terror of the last day of December 999, the first dawn of the year 1000 lit the Eastern sky without anything happening,” many Catholics breathed a sigh of relief. “Those who had given away their property made for the ecclesiastical centers which had accepted their `offerings,’ only to be told that their money, houses, lands, were no longer theirs. It had been the most spectacular give-away in history.”
The result was predictable. “Since the Church returned nothing,” opines Manhattan, “she embarked upon the second millennium with more wealth than ever, the result being that the monasteries, abbeys and bishoprics, with their inmates and incumbents, became richer, fatter and more corrupt than before.”
Kind of reminds me of the Billie Holiday refrain, “Nice Work If You Can Get It.”....read more.....

Facebook BANS Bestselling Author over 'The Scandalous Presidency of Barack Obama'!
http://pjmedia.com/trending/facebook-bans-bestselling-author-ad-scandalous-presidency-barack-obama/
Paul L. Williams who claims to have been a former FBI consultant, cites declassified U.S. intelligence documents showing that Cardinal Siri was elected Pope Gregory XVII at the conclave that, two days later, produced John XXIII.
In 2003, Paul L. Williams published a book called The Vatican Exposed: Money, Murder, and the Mafia (Prometheus Books)in which he asserted:
“In 1954 Count Della Torre, editor of the Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano, warned [Pope] Pius XII of [Cardinal Angelo] Roncalli’s Communist sympathies. Other members of the ‘Black Nobility’ expressed similar concerns.[5]
“Nor did Roncalli [later known as “Pope John XXIII”] escape the attention of the FBI and CIA. The agencies began to accumulate thick files on him and the questionable activities of other ‘progressives’ within the Vatican, including Monsignor Giovanni Battista Montini (the future Paul VI).
[…]
“Pius XII had appointed Cardinal Giuseppe Siri as his desired successor.[7] Siri was rabidly anti-Communist, an intransigent traditionalist in matters of church doctrine, and a skilled bureaucrat. . . .
“In 1958 [on October 26], when the cardinals were locked away in the Sistine Chapel to elect a new pope, mysterious events began to unfold. On the third ballot, Siri, according to FBI sources, obtained the necessary votes and was elected as Pope Gregory XVII.[8] White smoke poured from the chimney of the chapel to inform the faithful that a new pope had been chosen. The news was announced with joy at 6 P.M. on Vatican radio. The announcer said, “The smoke is white. . . . There is absolutely no doubt. A pope has been elected.”[9] . . .
“But the new pope failed to appear. Question began to arise whether the smoke was white or gray. To quell such doubts, Monsignor Santaro, secretary of the Conclave of Cardinals, informed the press that the smoke, indeed, had been white and that a new pope had been elected. The waiting continued. By evening Vatican radio announced that the results remained uncertain. On October 27, 1958, the Houston Post headlined: ‘Cardinals Fail to elect pope in 4 Ballots: Mix-Up in Smoke Signals Cause False Reports.’[10]
But the reports had been valid. On the fourth ballot, according to FBI sources, Siri again obtained the necessary votes and was elected supreme pontiff. But the French cardinals annulled the results, claiming that the election would cause widespread riots and the assassination of several prominent bishops behind the Iron Curtain.[11]
“The cardinals opted to elect Cardinal Frederico Tedischini as a “transitional pope,” but Tedischini was too ill to accept the position.
“Finally, on the third day of balloting, Roncalli received the necessary support to become Pope John XXIII. . . .” (Paul L. Williams, The Vatican Exposed, Amherst, NY: Prometheus Books, 2003, pp. 90-92.)
The footnotes that Williams’ references are: [5] Department of State confidential biography, “John XXIII,” issue date: no date, declassified: February 15, 1974; see also Avro Manhattan, Murder in the Vatican, p. 31. [7] John Cooney, The American Pope, p. 259. [8] Department of State secret dispatch, “John XXIII,” issue date: November 20, 1958, declassified: November 11, 1974. [9] The announcer’s words appeared in the London Tablet, November 1, 1958, p. 387. [10] Houston Post, October 27, 1958, pp. 1 and 7. [11] Department of State secret file, “Cardinal Siri,” issue date: April 10, 1961, declassified: February 28, 1994.
Again, even after persistent FOIA requests, no documents ever surfaced concerning the "questionable activities" of Angelo Roncalli (Saint Pope John XXIII) and Giovanni Battista Montini (Blessed Pope Paul VI who is to be canonized a saint in October, 2018 during a global summit of Catholic bishops in Rome).

Here is what has come to be known as THE SIRI THESIS
SIRI THESIS
The Siri thesis is the assertion that Cardinal Giuseppe Siri, the conservative Archbishop of Genoa since 1946, was elected pope in the 1958 papal conclave, taking the name Pope Gregory XVII, but that his election was then suppressed. Siri did not associate himself with this idea, which is held by a small minority of traditionalist Catholics.
Its exponents claim that a prolonged emission of white smoke on the first day of balloting at the conclave indicated the election of Siri, but that threats applied from outside the conclave caused his election to be reversed, allowing Pope John XXIII to be elected two days later. The source of the threats has been identified variously as Freemasons and agents of the Soviet Union. Adherents of the Siri thesis say that the election of John XXIII was invalid. They regard him and his successors as imposters and antipopes...read more....

No, Anonymous @ 4:23 PM... I am not 'losing' it. However, you Catholic-bashers on this blog may have already 'lost' it. Any obsession is clearly not normal behavior. You are the ones in need of psychiatrist help.
Leviticus 18:22
“Do not practice homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman. It is a detestable sin."
Leviticus 20:13
“If a man practices homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman, both men have committed a detestable act. They must both be put to death, for they are guilty of a capital offense."
1 Corinthians 6:9-10
"Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin,...or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality
...
—NONE of these will inherit the Kingdom of God."
1 Timothy 1:9-11
"For the law was not intended for people who do what is right. It is for people who are lawless and rebellious, who are ungodly and sinful, who consider nothing sacred and defile what is holy.
...
The law is for people who are sexually immoral, or who practice homosexuality
...or who do anything else that contradicts the wholesome teaching that comes from the glorious Good News entrusted to me by our blessed God."

FYI Pointing out serious error is like a doctor pointing out cancer on an X-Ray.
But according to you:
THAT'S PATIENT BASHING
As I said: See a psychiatrist (YOU are the one "obsessed", btw. Obsessed with ANYONE "daring" to point out error, etc. in the RCC.) DON'T try to improve things in the RCC, oh NO! JUST ATTACK THE MESSENGERS!
Sad.
Hey, 6:22 PM -
So, when are all of you smug, self righteous individuals going to clean up your OWN houses of worship? When are you going to show this same 'obsession' (reserved for Catholics only) to also address the homosexuals, adulturers, child trafficking and corruptness... and other sins that are happening within your OWN ranks???
Are you so clueless or delusional as to think that it's not happening within YOUR churches???
(All I hear is crickets... )
And speaking of 'error'... all of those Protestant denominations that 'spun off' from the Catholic Church (after Martin Luther, King Henry VIII, etc.) have seriously WATERED DOWN and revised God's WORD... so don't talk to me about ERROR!!!
Since TRUTH HAS NO VERSIONS... there should be only ONE bible, not many DIFFERENT versions, where a current 'updated' passage of scripture ends up changing the original meaning completely!!!
Hey 7:01 PM:
I AGREE WITH YOU.
Yes, OTHER Churches & groups SHOULD be cleansed of any and all corruption. BUT being as the RCC is HUGE and VERY OLD it has a greater VOLUME of incidents, so try not to take it personally. REGARDLESS, any other organization or group that has serious corruption SHOULD be exposed. Any story about serious corruption in wherever SHOULD BE publicized. ABSOLUTELY
Thank you, 7:20 PM for providing the calming voice of reason.
Listen, I am a Pre-Vatican II traditional Catholic... who KNOWS that there are problems within my Church. However, as one who has been reading this blog (and contributing occasionally) for over 10 years... I have a problem with people who have tunnel vision and can't see the big picture... that the battle between good and evil has been going on since Adam and Eve and will continue until Judgement Day. EVIL is everywhere... but, to read some of the posts on this blog, you would think that the Catholic Church INVENTED homosexuality!!! Out of 1.2 billion Catholics, the 'bad apples' only comprise a small percentage... they do not make up the entire Church. The majority of us are God-fearing Christians.
Anonymous 7:45 PM:
Thank you too, for your comments! Incidentally, as a former Catholic it is ESPECIALLY egregious to me to see these problems in the RCC because I know so many trusting people within it having their trust abused. They deserve better. Hopefully they'll GET better (including btw by such people as Constance alerting us to the evil New Age Movement influence within it).
Have a nice evening!
Anonymous @ 7:59 PM
Back in the 1980s, I bought and read two of Constance's books... and still refer to them. Also, over the years, she has pointed out to us (on this blog) that the New Age Movement has infiltrated ALL of the churches (not just the Catholic Church). Therefore, it is up to ALL of us to remain vigilant, alert and awake every single day... and pray and remain close to God.
You have a good evening too.
Anonymous 10:02 PM:
All too true! I inadvertantly misspoke (by omission). THANK YOU for mentioning that, it is INDEED of VERY great importance! The tentacles of the New Age Kraken (if you will) are trying to inveigle themselves EVERYWHERE!

Chinese authorities BLOW UP Christian megachurch with dynamite!
'The repeated persecution... demonstrates that the Chinese government has no respect for religious freedom or human rights,' says Christian group.
Chinese authorities have demolished a well-known Christian megachurch, inflaming long-standing tensions between religious groups and the Communist Party.
Witnesses and overseas activists said the paramilitary People's Armed Police used dynamite and excavators to destroy the Golden Lampstand Church, which has a congregation of more than 50,000, in the city of Linfen in Shaanxi province.
ChinaAid, a US-based Christian advocacy group, said local authorities planted explosives in an underground worship hall to demolish the building following, constructed with nearly $2.6m (£1.9m) in contributions from local worshippers in one of China's poorest regions.
The church had faced "repeated persecution" by the Chinese government, said ChinaAid. Hundreds of police and hired thugs smashed the building and seized Bibles in an earlier crackdown in 2009 that ended with the arrest of church leaders.
Those church leaders were given prison sentences of up to seven years for charges of illegally occupying farmland and disturbing traffic order, according to state media.
There are an estimated 60 million Christians in China, many of whom worship in independent congregations like the Golden Lampstand. Millions of Christians, Buddhists and Muslims also worship in state-sanctioned assemblies.
But the surging popularity of non-state-approved churches has raised the ire of authorities, wary of any threats to the officially atheist Communist Party's rigid political and social control.
Freedom of religion is guaranteed under China's constitution, so local authorities are often seen as using technicalities to attack unregistered churches. Charges of land or building violations and disturbing the peace are among the most common...

precrafted for months by deep state.
Constance I recall some link or post yours or others last year here showing Bannon very interested in
mystical new age connected parts of American history. motive for interest unclear. But this shows he might
be under the influence of something that feels right but isn't. recall that witches were trying to hex Trump's
campaign. But both witches and charismatics were hearing that their respective sources claiming to be
deity supported Clinton.
" Anonymous said...Christine Erikson and Thomas Dahlheimer both have an agenda, and they are not
hard to figure out either. Touched a nerve evidently! "
Dullheimer's agenda is conversion of his readers to NAM. My agenda is attack New Age (and give others the tools to do so) by showing that what's real they use as bait does not support NAM and sometimes can
be used to support Christianity. ITS CALLED APOLOGETICS, IDIOT.
Its your nerve I touched and others' I wonder what your agendas are. at best a materialistic kind of
Christianity. At worst some kind of undermine. Ray Yungen said in one of his videos that a lot of
Christians wouldn't speak to him after he said this energy stuff is real but its reality is what makes it
dangerous.
the idea that energy supports pantheism is NAM thinking, and you who think either energy is false or Christianity is false, are the ones engaged in NAM type thinking!
St. Basil the Great said that if the fifth element or ether is real it is just another creation of God's.
Peter wasn't pope because that title was first used by Alexandria, then taken by Rome. Peter dragged in after Paul. Rome's claim to fame was being where Peter died. As for that link on the proofs
page it deteriorates into false equations of similar sounding words, Peter doesn't mean father which
the other words, assuming they were in use, do mean. Similarity is not identity.
noticing an old post saying Pope Francis is wrong saying married couples should pay attention to each other during the sex act frankly if you don't do so it isn't making love it is masturbato in vagina as Freud called it. a good lover notices little reactions and follows the indications to increase pleasure. one woman felt more loved once her husband was impotent and just held her than when he was self absorbed in sex and would then roll over and fall asleep. that was lonely. (I would have made him change or face divorce after one incident.) leave nipple alone do a full handed boob massage and love her up during the day now and then.
What can anyone say about Christine that she hasn't already said?
Blavatsky said: "Lucifer represents.. Life.. Thought.. Progress.. Civilization.. Liberty.. Independence.. Lucifer [Jesus] is the Logos.. the Serpent, the Savior."
"The Celestial Virgin which thus becomes the Mother of Gods and Devils at one and the same time; for she is the ever-loving beneficent Deity...but in antiquity and reality Lucifer or Luciferius is the name. Lucifer is divine and terrestrial Light, 'the Holy Ghost' and 'Satan' at one and the same time."
Blavatsky said that Lucifer is our conscience. We were divinely given a free will. When we are inspired to do what is right, we are inspired by the Holy Ghost. And when we are tempted to do what is wrong, we are tempted by Satan. We should follow the lead of Lucifer (the Holy Ghost) and do what is right. Jesus said "I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star [Lucifer]. (Rev. 22:16)

Oprah Is The Mystery Woman Riding The Beast In Revelations 17:4. Startling Clues By Oprah Herself! The Scarlet Beast Is The United Nations!!!

Next year there will be a Flat Earth International Conference along with an International Flat Earth Film Festival.
Mark Sargent is the primary organizer of the movement. Back in 2015, when he typed "flat Earth" into YouTube he'd get 50,000 hits. Now it's more than 18.7 million, beating out Lady Gaga and closing in on Donald Trump at about 21.3 million. Sargent said he suspects millions of believers remain "in the closet" to avoid ridicule.
"My channel broke 10 million views in December," he said. "This is my full-time job now."
A conspiratorial mind-set and a deep current of religious ideology permeate the movement, which preaches that Earth was created by design, not by accident. As evidence of its shape, some reference Bible verses touting "the four corners of the Earth," "foundations of the Earth" and Earth being God's "footstool."
"The serious science community feels it's so basic that they don't want to waste their time debunking it," he said. "But this is a scary thing…. The danger isn't that people don't believe the Earth is round, it's the lack of scientific literacy."

Clean up on aisle 12:21 PM, Constance!
There are "Christian" pan[en]theists who believe that Spirit (God) is located, both, in the creation and beyond the creation, and that God's Spirit in the creation permeates the entire creation, and that It is the Divine world soul, and that Its body is the "Earth," a term that they use to describe the entire Universe. They also believe that the "Divine world soul, the Earth and the entire Cosmos," together as "One Entity," is the "Cosmic Christ." They believe that by becoming One with the "Cosmic Christ" they will have attained "the final recognition of the All in All, the unity of the Self with the Cosmos - the cognition of the DIVINITY OF THE SELF!" Rev. Matthew Fox has this belief, as did also, Teilhard de Chardin.
New Age pan[en]theists believe that Spirit (God) is located, both, in the creation and beyond the creation, and that God's Spirit in the creation permeates the entire creation. However, we do not believe that It is the "Divine world soul" and that Its body is the Earth and the entire Universe. We believe that Spirit ("God") created the god that created the universe, and that He was originally Divine, but later sinned and consequently lost his Divine status, and that it was after he lost his Divine status that he created this, from its origins, corrupt universe. We also believe that he manifests his sinful evil side as Satan and that he manifests his good side as the, less than Divine, world soul. We believe that Jesus Christ is, both, one with the, less than Divine, world soul\earth\cosmos (and is, in this way, the Cosmic Christ) and that He is also One with the "unqualified Absolute transcendent Father beyond the creation." We believe that the only way to become One with the "Father" is to go through the experience of first becoming one with the, less than Divine, Cosmic Christ. Jesus said, the only way to the Father is through me [the Cosmic Christ].

The full on progressive globalist Pope strikes again.
Will someone please explain to me why pro-New Age TROLL, Thomas Dalhleimer is allowed to continue to post his propaganda on this blog? Is it just about freedom of speech? Well, then I guess that I should be allowed to scream 'fire' in a crowded movie theater (even when there is no fire).
Most of us here are regulars who have read Constance's books and have known the TRUTH for the past 35+ years... that the New Age Movement is also the Anti-Christ Movement... the ultimate battle between good and evil.
We regulars are able to 'handle' people like Dahlheimer... since we are able to differentiate the truth from the lies (and point them out) when Dahlheimer posts his toxic propaganda here.
However, someone new to this blog (who is just learning about the New Age Movement) may be confused... wondering what is true and what is a lie.
So, my question is... what purpose does Dahlheimer serve here???
(For me personally, my attitude is... I don't need to swallow poison to find out whether it's going to kill me.)
From the news article (in part) posted by Anonymous @ 10:25 AM ...
“The honor of the Pontifical Order of St. Gregory the Great received by Mrs. Lilianne Ploumen, former Minister of Development, in June 2017 during the visit of the Dutch Royals to the Holy Father, responds to the diplomatic practice of the exchange of honors between delegations on the occasion of official visits by Heads of State or Government in the Vatican,” García said.
“Therefore, it is not in the slightest a placet [a mark of approval] to the politics in favor of abortion and of birth control that Mrs. Ploumen promotes,” she added.
According to the National Catholic Register, abortion is just one area where Ploumen’s public advocacy departs from Catholic moral teaching.
As “a radical supporter of homosexual rights,” Register correspondent Edward Pentin states, Ploumen “urged homosexuals to disrupt Mass in a Dutch cathedral after an openly homosexual man was denied Holy Communion” in 2010.
Last September, Ploumen also gave a prominent address at the LGBT’s Core Group at the United Nations.
For his part, Pope Francis has been an outspoken critic of abortion, calling it a “very grave sin” and a “horrendous crime.”

This is how YOU can help free the Hammonds!
January 2018
Rather than charging Dwight and Steve under the BLM’s own land-use statutes, prosecutors instead maliciously charged them as domestic “terrorists” under the Antiterrorism Act of 1996. This time the BLM succeeded in obtaining a conviction against Dwight Hammond, Jr., now 78, and Steven D. Hammond, 50. However, the government did offer to drop all charges if the Hammonds would simply sign over two-thirds of their ranch to the federal government.
Please copy and paste the letter below (or use the linked PDF) and submit it to your United States Congressmen, Senators, Interior Secretary Zinke, and the Office of President Donald Trump, using the instructions which follow the letter. Even better, if you have the time, please write a letter of your own and make an appeal from the heart to these leaders in behalf of Dwight and Steve Hammond, the Oregon ranchers unjustly imprisoned by the Obama Administration on trumped-up terrorism charges related to minor maintenance and mitigation fires which accidentally spread from their ranch onto BLM property, causing little or no damage.
Their story is detailed in the letter below.
Appeal to Trump Administration to Commute Sentence of Dwight and Steve Hammond!
For decades agencies of the Department of Interior, namely the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), have deployed their administrative powers to punitively regulate and maliciously prosecute the Hammond family of Oregon in a thinly veiled attempt to drive them off their ranch, their historic grazing allotments and vested water rights...

It's interesting indeed to find out that having decadent Entertainment industry is NOT new. Check out ANCIENT ROME!
"Stage and Screen
"An almost unbelievable avalanche of sex, perversion, pornography, “blue” films, sadism, masochism, bestiality, murder, rape and brutality has flooded into public view through motion pictures, stage productions and lurid magazines and pulp novels.
"It was much the same way in Rome before that great empire was swept into oblivion.
'Almost from the beginning the Roman stage was gross and immoral. It was one of the main
agencies to which must be attributed the undermining of the originally sound moral life of Roman society.
'So absorbed did the people become in the indecent representations of the stage that they lost all thought and care of the affairs of real life' (Myers, Rome, Its Rise and Fall, pp. 515,516).
"Scraping the bottom of the barrel of utter depravity, recent stage productions have gone far past mere nudity to include on-stage simulation of intercourse and, in at least one case, bestiality.
"Pornography alone, in the United States, is big business! And most pornographic material
finds its way into the hands of youths.
"Self-indulgence today has reached new lows in morality and new highs in expenditure!"

Constance Cumbey and the other leading Christian opponents of the so-called "Anti-Christ New Age Movement" do not even know that the New Age Movement is not about Earth Worship or Creation Worship. The New Age Movement's spiritual philosophy is derived from Helena Blavatsky's and Alice Bailey's spiritual philosophy, which is basically Hinduism. Matthew Fox's and Tielhard de Chardin's theology is Christian Pan[en]theism and it is not New Age theology. It's about worshiping the transcendent God beyond the creation and becoming One with the "Divine Creation." Fox wrote: The Order of the Sacred Earth "calls us home to our true nature as Earth." Chardine wrote: "I can be saved only by becoming one with the universe."
Blavatsky's and Bailey's New Age spiritual philosophy is about, first, becoming one with the, less than divine, creation and then going through it to become one with the transcendent God (Spirit) beyond the creation. Blavatsky and Bailey believed and taught that our true nature is Spirit.
Robert Muller (1923 - 2010) was once the Assistant Secretary-General of the United Nations and was called the "Philosopher" and "Prophet of Hope" of this world-unifying organization. Muller was a disciple of Alice Bailey and he has a review summary on the back cover of Paramahansa Yogananda's book "Autobiography of a Yogi," a book widely regarded as the New Age "hippie Bible."
New Age prophetess Alice Bailey (1880-1949) predicted that the "Christian churches" would eventually embrace the New Age [Eastern religions'] "concepts of illumination and self-realization."
Here is a New Age concept of illumination and self-realization: "Christ’s claim, 'No man cometh unto the Father, but by me' (John 14:6), is a promise to all humanity, irrespective of creed. 'Jesus meant, never that he was the sole Son of God, but that no man can attain the unqualified Absolute, the transcendent Father beyond creation, until he has first manifested the 'Son' or activating Christ Consciousness within creation." - Swami Sri Yukteswar
Swami Sri Yukteswar (1855- 1936) was Paramahansa Yogananda's guru. And his picture is displayed on the cover of the Beatles' Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band album and his New Age spiritual philosophy was promoted by the Beatles.
Thomas, keep right on 'spinning' and distorting. You are just digging a deeper hole for yourself... as you only manage to reveal what we already know about you.
“Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.” 1 John 2:22 (KJV)
"'Jesus meant, never that he was the sole Son of God, but that no man can attain the unqualified Absolute, the transcendent Father beyond creation, until he has first manifested the 'Son' or activating Christ Consciousness within creation." - Swami Sri Yukteswar"
tran·scend
tran(t)ˈsend/Submit
verb
past tense: transcended; past participle: transcended
be or go beyond the range or limits of (something abstract, typically a conceptual field or division).
"this was an issue transcending party politics"
synonyms: go beyond, rise above, cut across
"an issue that transcended party politics"
surpass (a person or an achievement).
synonyms: surpass, exceed, beat, cap, tower above, outdo, outclass, outstrip, leave behind, outshine, eclipse, overshadow, throw into the shade, upstage, top
"his exploits far transcended those of his predecessors"
You are in trouble then, since you are not even a good as your fake christ because that bar is set extremely low. You are a bottom feeder. And Dahlheimer, you certainly have not manifested a real relationship with the Real One.
You're blowing smoke up your own swami hoo-hoo.

Recently, the Vatican hosted a state funeral at St. Peter's for one Cardinal Bernard Law. The Cardinal had a long history of pay offs, cover ups, transfers of pedophile priests, non-cooperation with law enforcement, etc. concerning crimes against children committed by his "priests."
Now, the Pope tops that cake off with his accusing the sex abuse victims of "slander." He steadfastly defends his "Bishop" against these vicious "rumors."
It appears the Vatican has now adopted a new tactic regarding these charges; and that is to deny, deny and deny.

The US appears to be quietly preparing for nuclear war with North Korea!
Despite the appearance of thawing tensions with North Korea, both Washington and Pyongyang have made several steps that suggest things could escalate soon.
The US has quietly moved heavy firepower, like nuclear bombers and aircraft carriers, to the region.
On the sidelines of important diplomatic meetings, talk of military action has been ever present, if not front and center.
While much of the world has celebrated the progress in talks between North Korea and South Korea ahead of the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang next month, as well as an apparent thaw in tensions with North Korea, the US has taken steps to move heavy firepower to the region.
And though the US says it will delay its yearly military exercises with South Korea until the end of the Paralympics in March, it has elsewhere trained for scenarios that seem tailor-made for fighting North Korea...

For your information, there are MANY links (not just one) which document the history of the unbroken line of Popes... from Peter in 33 AD to the current Pope Francis." Peter wasn't in Rome in 33 AD but later.
I never denied PEter was first BISHOP or was the one who appointed the first BISHOP of Rome, but the TITLE pope familiar form of father like daddy, was FIRST used in Alexandria.
"The word pope derives from Greek [greek letters] meaning "father". In the early centuries of Christianity, this title was applied, especially in the east, to all bishops[18] and other senior clergy, and later became reserved in the west to the Bishop of Rome, a reservation made official only in the 11th century.[19][20][21][22][23]" the numbers at the end are the sources cited at the end of the article online. wikipedia
And my reputation has nothing to do with anything. do the research, ccel.org and other online sources
some Orthodox some not. facts are facts. Notice that in Acts chapter 15 James says he gives his judgement
clearly he not Peter is bishop of that city, but Peter started the church by his preaching in Jerusalem.
An unboken lineage from PEter as first bishop of Antioch exists, also Andrew for Constantinople
(Istanbul) and
Mark for Alexandria and James for Jerusalem. an Orthodox article on some
internal disputes ref to "the chair of Peter in Antioch." https://www.firstthings.com/blogs/firstthoughts/2016/06/the-great-orthodox-council-antioch-is-different

another problem with pornography is that it promotes a sensually incompetent style of sexual interaction
and drives wierd fads of stimulation which are limited zone effect not whole body, and some would be
revolting if not media brainwashed you are supposed to like it. also a predatory tone sets
in which becomes intolerable to the partner and ruins many marriages. Whole body is ignored for a few
parts, which is depersonalizing. oral sex becomes deep throat which is dangerous and can be damaging,
and the anal sex is definitely perverted and causes prolapsus and anal leakage. The idea that sex
should be reproduction focused is unbiblical (gen. 2:18) and is every bit as exploitive using another as tool
as pleasure focus can get.
"another problem with pornography is that it promotes a sensually incompetent style of sexual interaction
