It Is like the world is on fast forward I live in a really small community but I see what is going on when I log onto the internet. It is sheer madness. It makes me wonder how many people I pass when shopping are mentally ill. In their faces, even with the masks, people do not look happy.
Transgender lawsuit against Catholic hospital cites new US Supreme Court precedent CNA Staff, Jul 20, 2020 / 05:47 pm MT (CNA).- A Catholic hospital in Maryland faces a lawsuit from a person who presents as a transgender man because it would not perform a hysterectomy on the person’s healthy uterus. The lawsuit, whose backers have for decades opposed Catholic ethics in Catholic-run hospitals, cites a 2020 Supreme Court decision that holds employment discrimination on the basis of gender identity to be a violation of U.S. civil rights law. University of Maryland St. Joseph Medical Center, a Catholic-founded hospital now in the University of Maryland Medical System, canceled the hysterectomy for 33-year-old Jesse Hammons of Baltimore, which had been scheduled for Jan. 6. The plaintiff’s claims that the hysterectomy would not have been canceled if it were for a diagnosis other than gender dysphoria. Because the hospital performs hysterectomies for other diagnosed conditions, it treated Hammons unfairly. Hammons said the surgery would help eliminate the production of estrogen and drastically improve mental health. full article here: Transgender lawsuit against Catholic hospital cites new US Supreme Court precedent
At work I have counted up the number of people I count as unhinged. It is shocking, like living with the Adam's Family . It made me wonder if it is like this every where I mentioned this to a work colleague who said he had had very serious concerns about me for quite some time
We are at the point where those on opposite sides of the fence have irreconcilable differences. Those that have control of the driver's seat will determine which road we take in the fork ahead. The Sovereign Lord has allowed it to be so in the short term, in a fashion similar to Job's trial. Like him, God's People shall ultimately be vindicated. Jesus, give us perseverance and peace in the midst of the Storm. May we extend love to all who cross our path! O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee!
Yes, the Germans and French came up with a plan to bail out EU countries in trouble from the economic effects of the Covid crisis. Macon's "beast" is his political opponents and the rise of Euroscepticism on the Continent. I think that they have the outline of a rescue package and are arguing about what proportion of it will be straightforward money transfer, what proportion will be loans and what will be the terms for receiving the money. They have to find a way to get the money to Italy and Spain without too many strings attached while at the same time attaching as many strings as they can to money for countries like Hungary which won't jump high enough when the EU's central command cracks the whip . We Catholics need to be more concerned that any priest in any country agreed to the distribution of Holy Communion by envelope as outlined in this video: Someone (presumably the Bishop) put a stop to it but what does it say about that "Catholic Community's" belief in the Real Presence that they were willing to have Jesus carried out of their "worship space" in envelopes?
And yet we must continue to pray for those on the other side of the fence, because until the Warning has come and gone, there is still hope that they might choose the Jesus side of the fence.

Kim Gardner Staffer Tampered with Patricia McCloskey’s Inoperable Hand Gun – Disassembled Gun and Put It Back Together to Make It Work! St. Louis prosecutors tampered with Patricia McCloskey’s gun before charges were made against the St. Louis couple earlier this week. The prosecution team under the direction of Soros-funded Kim Gardner disassembled the inoperable gun and then put it back together making it operable. Patricia McCloskey was then charged with flourishing a gun, even though prosecutors knew it was inoperable! KSDK reported: The gun Patricia McCloskey waved at protesters was inoperable when it arrived at the St. Louis police crime lab, but a member of St. Louis Prosecuting Attorney Kim Gardner’s staff ordered crime lab experts to find out why and wrote that it was “readily capable of lethal use,” in charging documents filed Monday, 5 On Your Side has learned. In Missouri, police and prosecutors must prove that a weapon is “readily” capable of lethal use when it used in the type of crime with which the McCloskeys have been charged. At the request of Assistant Circuit Attorney Chris Hinckley, crime lab staff members field stripped the handgun and found that it had been assembled incorrectly. Specifically, the firing pin spring was put in front of the firing pin, which was backward, and made the gun incapable of firing, according to the documents. Firearms experts then put the gun back together, per Hinckley’s request, in the correct order and test-fired it, finding that it worked, according to the documents. Crime lab workers photographed the disassembly and reassembly of the gun, according to the documents. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/20...disassembled-gun-put-back-together-make-work/

UN suggests hand outs to poorest people to stop virus spread The UN has suggested that a temporary basic income for the world’s poorest people in developing countries could help stop the spread of coronavirus. A report by the UN Development Programme (UNDP) said that the fund would allow 2.7 billion people in 132 developing countries to stay at home. “Unprecedented times call for unprecedented social and economic measures. Introducing a temporary basic income for the world’s poorest people has emerged as one option. Bailouts and recovery plans cannot only focus on big markets and big business,” UNDP Administrator Achim Steiner said. The report gave three ways in which the pay-out could be done – by topping up existing average incomes, awarding lump sum transfers based on the differences in the median standard of living across a country or by transferring a lump sum despite a person’s location in a country. The UN has warned that the pandemic could increase poverty worldwide. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/world-53509270 We live in the weirdest times.
Does anyone else feel we are all part of a big experiment with this coronavirus 'crisis'? To see if we comply with big government?
Lady Liberty stands tall – amid lightning strike in NY Harbor Just two days earlier, Liberty Island was partially reopened to visitors after being closed since March A video posted on social media Wednesday evening showed storm clouds gathered aboveAmerica’s most famous symbol of freedom. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning descends from the heavens and strikes near the pedestal of the famous statue – which has served as a beacon of hope for both native-born Americans and immigrants since arriving as a gift from France in the 1880s. Just as suddenly the flash is gone – with no sign of damage to the statue or to Liberty Island -- between New York and New Jersey in New York Harbor -- which serves as the statue’s home. Just two days earlier, the island was partially reopened to visitors after being closed since March because of the coronavirus pandemic. The grounds of the island are now reopened, as are some food and gift shop services – but the interior of the statue and the island’s two museums remain closed, New York’s WABC-TV reported. In addition, the ferry boats that carry visitors to the island from both the New York and New Jersey sides have reduced capacity rules in effect, with social distancing markers and signs also in place, the station reported.
