Have nothing to do with a false charge and do not put an innocent person to death, for I will not acquit the guilty. Exodus 23:7 Texas National Guard has arrived in Chicago. ICE shot a Chicago woman earlier this week. They claim she was armed. But witnesses dispute what they are saying and call it a coverup. While I don’t know what happened, I’ve seen enough videos of ICE agents physically brutalizing people and heard enough lies from this... Read more
Trump’s Republicans have become the Party of Death. How did this happen? The budget which they are fighting for would end the subsidy the government pays to supplement insurance costs through Obamacare, otherwise known as the Affordable Care Act. That would send insurance premiums skyrocketing for the exact American citizens who are least able to pay them. In fact, it would increase those Americans’ insurance premiums an average of about $900/month. Most of them couldn’t afford it, and would lose... Read more
But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Jesus Christ Matthew 24:36 Evidently, Jesus was supposed to come again a couple of weeks ago. The due date was Tuesday, September 23, 2025. I wasn’t aware of this until late on the evening of September 22, when a family member told me that another family member was unavailable to help with a small family crisis because they... Read more
I pledge Allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all. From the Declaration of Independence: The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world. … He... Read more
Some people’s idea of free speech is that they are free to say what they like, but if anyone says anything back, that is an outrage. Winston Churchill I don’t allow comments on this blog because I got sick and tired of rude and aggressive atheists coming on here and constantly attacking Jesus, the Church and my beliefs over and over and over and over and over and over. I put up with it for years. I put up... Read more
The Sisters of Charity of New York issued a pointed rebuke of Cardinal Dolan’s over-the-top praise of Charley Kirk. I am going to put their full statement below. But first, I want to make a brief statement of my own. It is normal after someone dies, especially when a political figure is murdered in a public venue as Charley Kirk was, to focus on their good points and ignore their faults. “Do not speak ill of the dead,” we say. ...

Pope Leo’s prayer intention for October is that we should pray for the collaboration of the different faith traditions, that they “might work together to defend and promote peace, justice and human fraternity.” I can’t think of a prayer that is more important for the ugly time that we are living through here in America. If our religious leaders of every faith tradition would unite and speak with one voice that every person without regard for their sex, race or... Read more
If God is for us, who can be against us? Romans 8:31 Trump just showed all of us two black swans. In a speech to America’s generals, he told them that he wanted the military to use America’s cities as “training grounds.” He wants to use our own military that we paid for with our own money, against you and me, and he’s not hiding it. Trump told our generals that he wanted them to consider America’s cities as... Read more
You cannot have two masters. Jesus Christ What is your worldview? In what, or whom, do you place your trust? By what yardstick do you measure right and wrong? What or who is your god? From the day I started this blog, I have directed it to people who want to follow Christ. I’m going to broaden it to include the people who are confused by the lies being told about Jesus by political clergy. We have one Hope and... Read more
Archbishop Emeritus Eusebius Beltran of the Diocese of Oklahoma City died last Friday. The last time I saw him was a few weeks ago at the noon mass at the Stanley Rother Shrine. It was Blessed Stanley’s feast day. Archbishop Beltran was Fr Rother’s bishop when he was martyred. Fr Rother made his famous statement that “a shepherd cannot run” in a conversation with Archbishop Beltran. They were talking about the possibility of moving Fr Rother from his posting because...
