    It looks like Britain, Godless Pagan England, is going down the tube.
    It all reminds me of the Flight of the Holy Family into Egypt and of what Jesus said about when you see those days coming..

    It surely does remind one of the Flight into Egypt. We don't know the day nor the hour when some of us may need to leave our Homeland.

    The great difficulty for good Catholics is finding good and holy and wise, informed people that we can trust.

    Clearly we cannot trust Governments and the legacy media which are clearly Satanic and work hand in glove. Generally we cannot trust the vast majority of our political leaders for the same reason.

    So who do we turn to for someone to tell us the truth and provide good moral leadership?
    Well, in past times we turned at once to the Pope and the Vatican. But that trust too has been broken. Why? Because really there is no real difference between what Rome says and what the Satanic Governments say or the Satanic legacy media. A statement from the Vatican says much the same things as editorials from the New York Times.

    What about our Bishops, do we trust them? Well the simple fact is at a time when we needed them most they have fallen silent. They don't really say very much at all and when they do speak it is in terms of pious platitudes that won't get them into any trouble. The same thing goes for many of our priests.

    But there are some very good Catholic clergy who have been speaking out and have been giving very good leadership. A for instance Cardinals Muller, Burke and Sarah and Bishops Schneider and Strickland. But so very, very few.

    There have been also some very good Catholic commentators. But recently I have become uneasy with many of them. Becoming famous and a celebrity can bexa great source of pride. Many of them are very argumentative, political and sensationalist. They often make me nervous. They took can have their own agendas.

    Another thing many Catholics turn toare Prophesies and Marian Apparitions. Brilliant and giving real light and guidance when true but , sadly, the vast majority of them, inevitably are false.

    So we Catholics are very often like Mary led to look around us and store things up in our hearts , begging the Holy Spirit to guide us in our blindness.

    One thing occurs to me in the recent major unrest the rioting in Britain and Ireland is that they may very well be State run False Flag operations run by intelligence services to stir up unrest and creat fear so that Governments may exercise more control and the Great Reset be imposed.,

    There is evidence of this already. The very same individuals are showing up at riots and demonstrations across the country and being shipped round in organised groups and wherever there is trouble these guys are at the very centre of it. More than that these shadowy individuals are members of no know groups or parties. They just show up, cause trouble and fade away again.

    I agree.

    Starmer wants to bring in Digital ID and facial recognition technology for the 'safety' of the people.

    It is the old create the problem and impose a solution tactic. Starmer appears to have fascist tendencies.

    They all seem to have this Godlike thing were they are always totally right about everything and know exactly the right thing to do to fix everything. None of them ever seem to look inwards and ask themselves the simple question, if I myself am very far from being perfect then how can I force everyone else to be perfect?

    There is no sense of personal sin or guilt. A constant lack of humility and a huge sense of overweening pride.

    The very best Government would be a humble Government that actually served the people by not getting in their faces all the time.

    But whoever heard of a humble Government??

    Yes, but I am also seeing lots of strong, beautiful, Catholic families from India starting to fill our Churches. They may ignite the Faith that’s dead in Canada.:) God could use this as part of the restoration of our Faith.

    A person born around the year 1900 could literally work in a factory for about 10 hours at the age of 6 to 7, lose half of his family due to illness at an early age, experience the First World War in which over 10 million people died, 20 were wounded - even after that came the Spanish flu, which killed tens of millions around the world.

    Monarchies such as Austria-Hungary, the Ottoman Empire, and the Russian Empire, which existed for over 500 years, disappeared. The rise of communism came, which killed over 30 million people in just the first decade, took away all human and moral rights and the dignity of every human being. In a short period, if you take only the 1930s in Spain and the USSR, more than 150,000 priests and religious were killed together, in Spain about 6,000...

    In addition, we had the famine in the Ukraine in the early 1930s, and the Great Depression of 1929-1933 when dozens of people were in extreme poverty, and when the people who were going through this history I wrote fell into an even worse financial situation, then you know what poverty was like during the economic crisis...
    Of course, that was not all. WW2 came as a peak, when over 70 million people died, and several tens of millions were wounded. There was the rise of communism, the iron curtain where families were literally separated at the borders with terror and fear....

    Imagine what an ordinary person born at that time went through in only 45 years of his life and you know what, such people built the best and most advanced society and enable a better life for all of us and the generations to come. Despite all the great suffering, wars, poverty and difficulties, they had faith, hope, integrity and honesty.
    Over 300 million dead in a few decades, disease and poverty, and religion in all countries was over 95%, Churches full of people, tradition, family as the foundation of society...
    Those people had every right to think that the end had come, but they didn't...Today there is a crisis of morals, a crisis of faith, a crisis of the family. Depression, anxiety, loss of sense of sin and guilt, demoralization of society through sexual disorders and the imposition of gender ideology on young people. We have more economic wealth than any generation in the history of mankind, and we have never been more dissatisfied. Houses are the largest in the history of mankind, and families are never smaller.

    God's thoughts are not our thoughts, but the death and hardships experienced by previous generations were not necessarily punishments, but blessings that kept people close to God. The death of the soul is a much greater disaster in God's eyes than the death of the body.
    The more distant a modern man is from God, the more dissatisfied he is. Although he wants to deny God, he cannot escape from the image of God that God has built into every human being. He feels in himself that he cannot go on like this forever, that this moral chaos must come to an end...

    God did not create man to wander the earth and fill his sinful body with worldly pleasures, but He created Him for Himself so that man could be in union with God.
    This is the reason why many people today, whether believers or atheists, feel that some change is coming and that society is on the verge of collapse.

    Evil cannot destroy God, it can only cause him pain by manipulating the man whom God created and for whom he paid a great price.
    The twisted order of natural things will end because it is not God's purpose for man, but the "landing" will be nasty for all of us. Even if they succeed in bringing about the NWO( world communism), all the things that evil makes fall apart because evil can never create anything that is worth and lasts.
    As our blessed Cardinal Stepinac told the communists when they put him on trial. Communism was born in a lie, lives in a lie and will die in a lie.

    It's all about discernment, keeping our yes & ears open. I have various ways of doing that. While I focus on alternative news sources, I partially look at certain visionaries to match what else I am hearing, praying they are not just parroting what they see around us.

    I'm not saying Luz is always correct but along w others, gives much to watch for & discern. We are living in a time when we must remain vigilant & ready!! Keep our lamps trimmed & plenty of oil stocked.

    I believe this whole infiltration thing was designed to do exactly that.

    I think there are & will be many false staged flags, to encourage all to turn to the Antichrist when he makes himself known.

    Right - blame it all on "far right" groups! It is frustrating and I think it's all part of their end game to frustrate people into action and then blame us while it's ok when they do it or hide the real truth of it. How can the bulk of our populations fall for this as it's in plain sight!? And to answer my own question, it's the diabolical deception that's keeping people from seeing the truth. :sick::(

    It maybe that God is starting to implement His Own reboot, or if you prefer, reset.

    A snippet from the wonderful Archbishop Sheen:

    God is thinning our ranks, and we are preparing for a stronger and more holy Church.51 God does not expressly say to the Church, “Tell your cowards to leave.” They just leave. God does not make papal decisions saying that the majority opinion is wrong. He just allows things to work out this particular way. And then will come the battles and the testing. Our Lord said, “Satan will sift you as wheat” (Luke 22:31) and today, we are being sifted. We can all thank God that we live in these days. The test is almost final: the choice is now between the “spirit of the world” and the “Spirit of Christ.” Really, it’s beautiful. Now, we can say, “aye” or “nay.” We can bear up under assaults, criticisms, and ridicule because this is the lot of Christians in the days of the spirit of the world.52 This then is our Church today. It is a tested Church in which we must be better than we ever were before. We must recognize that we are part of the very large Mystical Body that is all over the world. We who are weak in the Western Civilization are drawing strength from great spiritual heroes in other parts of the world. We are undergoing a slight test, of dividing our loyalty between Christ and the world. We must clearly get it into our minds and hearts that this is a new age, and that we have to be a creative minority. God works through minorities, never through majorities. The minority with God can do anything. As others are leaving, we will be stronger.53 In a crisis, the Lord wants only the true, the faithful, and the strong.54 The Lord is keeping reserves; He is training us. The only argument left to convince others is holiness. The world has heard every other argument and is ready to reject them all, except holiness. The holy priest. The holy sister. We will make the entry; we will prepare for a new Church. God is with us! We simply cannot lose. As a matter of fact, we have already won, but the news has not yet leaked out.55

    I think it must be. Because once you see the truth you can't unsee it. And its so hard to understand those who blindly follow the "Narrative". It is a cult like response. :eek: God needs to "deprogram" them because human logic doesn't work.:(

    Great to read this post. It sounds a lot like what Pope Benedict said before he became Pope: that the Church will become smaller.
