Raymond Arroya On World Over Live told of a case of a woman with cancer from Oregon who asked for payment for a new drug treatment for cancer which held great promise-the state of Oregon said no they wouldn't pay for it, but they would pay for assisted suicide for her. At about 39 minute mark they speak about this.
I love this. I read it some years before. There are stories of converts sitting in a Catholic church to get out of the rain and feeling a strong presence even though the Church was seemingly empty. It makes me think of the story of St John Vianney Pointing to the tabernacle in tears saying over and over "He is there! He is there!"
Goodness, poor, poor China. Prayer for China, it is not the fault of the people that they have monsters governing them. Things seem to have gotten like a huge disaster movie there. May it lead them to the One True Faith. Poor people. Catholic Prophecy indicates they will indeed be converted one day.
I took a course at St. Mary's back in the 1980s while discerning a vocation with the Society of Mary. Their Provincial House was just 3 blocks away from the seminary. Interestingly, I also have a photo of my parents standing in front of their first apartment just down the Street back in 1949! Many memories!
The list of what they support is probably also supported by Muslims. As far as I know, they also support, or have supported, the wars in the Middle East which is wiping Christian presence from the Holy Land. Bombs and bullets have no place in spiritual warfare. I do admit to knowing very little about them. It is encouraging to learn that their president is a practicing Catholic. Thank you for telling me that.
Just out of curiosity - how widespread is the knowledge about the collapse of WTC 7 in the US? I would be interested to know because there are an above-average number of freethinkers here. And yes, it was a long time ago, "War on terror" is different today.... “Building WTC7 really opened my eyes,” says Senator Johnson from Wisconsin. “That looks like controlled demolition to me.” Johnson dug into the issue and found that BBC had reported the collapse of WTC7 20 minutes too early. WTC7 was not hit by an airplane. I think we need a new investigation into the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, because US President George Bush lied to the whole world back then. Here is Senator Ron Johnson's conversation with the YouTube channel Redacted from June 10, 2025: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFkd5GqwggI&t=2s
I recently read a report of the catastrophic demographic collapse in China. It is irreversible. Their only hope of not going extinct would be to adopt Catholic attitudes to reproduction. Even if the attrition continues unaddressed, Catholic Chinese, either overtly or covertly, are most likely the only ones having enough children to grow their community. In a century, only Catholic Chinese will remain at the present trends.
Someone recently told me to be careful of anything that is "rainforest alliance " certified. Apparently it has something to do with Bill Gates and is not good. Many food companies are aligned with it and are signatories to it. It comes with a picture of a green frog and is best to avoid it and to purchase alternative products, apparently.
I looked up the list on their website. Thanks for posting. At last 5 or 6 products I use are on the list.
