The German Ethics Committee, which is described as “a government committee” and which appears to have some sort of legitimacy, has labeled laws against incest “unacceptable” because they “don’t allow the right to sexual self-determination. This is especially interesting since the European Court of Human Rights ruled in April in favor of the German law making incest illegal. The case was based on the conviction of a man who had an incestuous relationship with his sister that began when the girl was... Read more

Iraq’s Prime Minister, Haider al-Abadi,  says that his country’s intelligence systems have uncovered a plot to attack “underground railway systems” in the United States and Paris.

Suspects “included extremists from the United States and France who were fighting” for ISIS in Iraq. From ABC News: Iraq’s prime minister said Thursday his country’s intelligence operation has uncovered a... Read more

I watched another video of another helpless man being used as a trophy before he was beheaded by a group of satanic savages. This victim was different from the previous ones in that he was French, rather than English or American, and he was only a tourist on a hiking trip in an area far away from the fighting. Herve Gourdel was not subjected to months and years of captivity before his murder. He lost his life shortly after his... Read more

The first genocide of the 20th Century, the “forgotten genocide,” was the genocide of Armenian Christians. We must not “forget” again.    Nobody knows.  Nobody sees. Nobody knows but me. That is the lament of victims of discrimination and violence throughout time. They are trapped in the unimaginable alone experienced by people who fall into the hands of human monsters. It is impossible to describe the depth of terror, horror, pain and absolute, total and complete isolation that is part of... Read more

Our current leader, Archbishop Paul Coakley, and Archbishop Emeritus Eusebius Beltran. Oklahoma City’s Archbishop Emeritus Eusebius Beltran was a gift to our state when he led us. He was always willing to take the hard step up to the plate to defend the human person from the ravages of discrimination and hate. About 10 years ago, Oklahoma passed an outrageous law aimed at Hispanics. This law made it a crime to help people, even when they were in dire situations,... Read more

Nuns Off a Bus. Sisters, arriving at the Benediction.    I don’t know what to say about the whole “black mass” deal. They did their uggidy-buggidy thingamajig. I didn’t get near it. And I’m not going to get near it now. If you want to read about the uggidy-buggidy black mass and the brain-dead fools who attended it, google is ready when you are. You’ll find none of that here. I went to the Holy Hour and Bendiction conducted by... Read more

I am having a blest life. In some ways, it is almost a charmed life. I say that, not because everything has come easily to me, or because nothing bad ever happened to me. I say it because, in ways that I won’t talk about here, my life is one gigantic save. I’m a survivor in that I’ve walked — sometimes crawled — away from a lot of crap. I’m a survivor in that I’ve walked — oftentimes crying my... Read more

ISIS continues its shameless abuse of helpless prisoners with its latest video of one of its kidnap victims. This time, instead of a beheading video, they put British journalist John Cantile in front of the camera to tell their “story.” His comments included an indirect demand from ISIS’ for ransom money to secure Mr Cantile’s freedom, as well as a veiled threat that he would be murdered if the ransom is not forthcoming. I mentioned in an earlier post that I... Read more

France bombed an ISIS depot in northeast Iraq today.  President Hollande issued a statement saying there would be more raids in coming days. This makes France the first country other than the US to strike ISIS targets. I watched the Senate hearings about ISIS earlier this week. One point that came up during the hearings is that ISIS is in control of at least one small oil field and that the revenues from these wells are helping to fund the... Read more
