https://www.biometricupdate.com/202...izing-direction-and-immunity-passports-stance Technical Advisory Committee Member Elizabeth Renieris has resigned from the organization due to a difference of opinion on the organization’s direction, according to CoinDesk. Renieris is a fellow at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society at Harvard University and Board Member with IDPro, and CoinDesk writes that her resignation email alleges the organization is not transparent, is at risk of undue corporate influence, and prone to “techno-solutionism.” She expressed uncertainty at ID2020’s mission, and suggests that it is focused on promoting “decentralized identity solutions at all costs.” https://medium.com/berkman-klein-ce...-immunity-passports-for-covid-19-5ff84cacb290 Despite limited backing from civil society or public health experts, as well as warnings from historians and bioethicists, technologists are racing ahead to build and deploy digital certificates that would allegedly let individuals “prove” whether they have recovered from the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), have tested positive for antibodies, or have received a vaccination, should one become available. One such initiative is based on a combination of an emerging W3C standard for Verifiable Credentials (VCs), non-standard decentralized identifiers (DIDs), and distributed ledger technology (DLT) or “blockchain.”¹ read more at the link above In this article, we examine why such proposed technological interventions lack sufficient supporting scientific and public health evidence or legitimacy. As a result, we believe such interventions, if adopted or implemented by public authorities, would pose an unjustified interference with, and serious threat to, our fundamental human rights and civil liberties, in violation of the principles of legality, necessity, and proportionality. In this article, we outline our concerns from a legal, public health-based, and technical perspective.
I am glad that they removed the mural of Putin, Defense Minister Shoigu, and Stalin. Secular and military leaders have no place in a cathedral IMO. Maybe one day after Sainthood but certainly not before. I for one hope they make it. It is certainly a beautiful cathedral. When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, did you want anything? [36] But they said: Nothing. Then said he unto them: But now he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a scrip; and he that hath not, let him sell his coat, and buy a sword. [37] For I say to you, that this that is written must yet be fulfilled in me: And with the wicked was he reckoned. For the things concerning me have an end. [38] But they said: Lord, behold here are two swords. And he said to them, It is enough.
It does appear like they want God's blessings on their military activities. I hope God blesses them, but leads them to peace.
Eucharist and tabernacle stolen from North Carolina Catholic Church Washington, D.C. Newsroom, Jun 18, 2020 / 02:18 pm MT (CNA).- Police are appealing to the public for help and a parish is requesting prayers after a tabernacle containing the Eucharist was stolen from a church in Boone, North Carolina on June 16. “We are calling for prayers and the safe return of the Blessed Sacrament after the tabernacle was stolen from the church Tuesday night,” said a message posted on the website of Saint Elizabeth of the Hill Country Catholic Church. The parish said the theft occurred “sometime after 9 p.m. Tuesday night,” and that the thief entered the church through a window. Nothing apart from the tabernacle was stolen or damaged, said the parish. “Please pray and offer reparation for the desecration of the church and the theft of the Blessed Sacrament,” the statement said.

Ongoing reports of elderly White people being shoved, pushed, or struck. An elderly White man died (yesterday or today?) after being pushed off a bus. I'm now seeing such reports far too frequently. My mother is likely safe. I wrote an e-mail to friends here (sisters my age), this morning, advising them to shop in their parents' stead. Also reminded them of their being Liberals, and if they've been on board with/encouraging various attitudes since Queen Hillary lost in 2016 ... well, here's the fruit of that. Stay safe, elders here! I'll pray for your continued safety. My husband is prematurely aged (injury), often mistaken for being 10 years older. Entirely gray. He's a light-complected Latino, often mistaken for being "a Gringo." He's also at risk.
As we often discuss, just because the Soviet Union is no more, does not mean that its doctrine is no more: It just migrated from a "state" idea to a :cultural" construct, ie Cultural Marxism. Here's another example of this migration. https://noqreport.com/2020/06/18/cu...master-bedroom-removed-by-mls-advisory-board/ Cultural Marxism hits peak insanity as ‘master bedroom’ removed by MLS Advisory Board Soon, you will no longer be able to get a Master's Degree or watch golfers compete at The Masters. It's getting ludicrous out there, folks. ----- And it will get worse. And this was foretold in 1917 by Our Lady to three little children in Fatima, Porugal.
Pope Francis adds three titles to Catholic litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary ............... In his letter, Cardinal Sarah noted where each invocation should be added, using the Latin formulations. “Mater misericordiae,” which means, “Mother of mercy,” should be placed after “Mater Ecclesiae.” “Mater spei,” which means “Mother of hope,” should follow “Mater divinae gratiae,” and “Solacium migrantium,” which means “Comfort of migrants,” should follow “Refugium peccatorum.” “With every good wish and kind regard, we wish to entrust this notification to you for your information and application,” Sarah wrote to the bishops’ conferences. The letter is dated June 20, the day the Church celebrates the memorial of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. ..............

China develops weapons to fry US electric grid, eyes high-tech ‘Pearl Harbor’ attack With the help of stolen U.S. technology, China has developed at least three types of high-tech weapons to attack the electric grid and key technologies in a “surprise Pearl Harbor” assault that could send America into a deadly blackout, according to a new analysis. According to the report from the independent EMP Task Force on National and Homeland Security, China has built a network of satellites, high-speed missiles, and “super-electromagnetic pulse” weapons that could melt down the U.S. electric network, fry critical communications, and stifle aircraft carrier groups. According to the report, written by the task force’s executive director, Peter Pry, long an expert on EMP warfare, China developed the weapons as part of its “Total Information Warfare” that includes hacking raids on computers. What’s more, despite China’s promises to attack only after being attacked, Pry revealed new data to show that the communist nation is lying and eager to shoot first with “high-altitude electromagnetic pulse,” or HEMP, weapons launched from satellites, ships, and land.

Knew this was coming eventually. Those who hate the country's mission from God must destroy any public memory of it: Criminal Leftists Tear Down Statue of Roman Catholic Spanish Priest St. Junípero Serra in San Francisco Criminal leftists have now torn down a statue of Roman Catholic Spanish priest and friar St. Junípero Serra in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park. The criminal mobs also destroyed statues of Francis Scott Key, the author of the Star Spangled Banner, and, oddly, Union General Ulysses S. Grant. Serra was canonized a saint by Pope Francis in 2015 and statues of him have been vandalized in California on multiple occasions due to his work attempting to convert native Americans to Catholicism. The Spanish priest believed that it was tragic to allow people to die without having converted, while death for someone a believer was something to be celebrated. St. Junípero founded nine Catholic missions in California in the late 1700s and helped convert many native Californians to Christianity. He is also remembered for having taught them many new technologies. MORE: https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/20...anish-priest-st-junipero-serra-san-francisco/
Wouldn't be surprised if De Blasio doesn't substitute a statue of himself in same place!!! De Blasio Announces NY Commission to “Reevaluate Historical Narratives” and Look at Removing Thomas Jefferson Statue in City Hall ......... Bill told reporters this week they will look at the Thomas Jefferson statue inside City Hall that has been there inside the building since 1834. Jefferson is also the founder of the Democrat Party — which seems to get lost in the current conversation. MORE: https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/20...k-removing-thomas-jefferson-statue-city-hall/
The man is totally out of control. It won't be long before he bans cash in NYC. The faces of our presidents on currency will be deemed offensive.
Hi I was searching about possible visits from pope to Russia. Found some article from September last year, when about 40 bishops and ordinaries of sui iuris Eastern Catholic Churches gathered at the Vatican in September 12-14, 2019. Received in audience by the Supreme Pontiff, approved a project to construct the first official sanctuary dedicated to Our Lady of Fatima in St. Petersburg, in the heart of Russia. According to the link "...the Orthodox confessions are not opposed to this project". I would be watching the efforts on this sanctuary conclusion, as it may be an opportunity to come along with a pope visit and gathering with the Orthodox confessions, as Francis has always done. Due to this pandemic, he probably woudn´t be going this year anyway or the next, specially if political or militar conflicts emerge. The world is in "strange"tension... God bless you all! "Remember that nothing is small in the eyes of God. Do all that you do with love." Saint Thérèse of Lisieux
So let me guess, the next time we have a really large scale outage, the CCP will appear to be coming to our aide with "generators" or some solution? We'll all be dependent on them and for a new grid?
