So much for open freedom of choice.

The rate at which young Americans took their own lives reached a high-water mark in 2017, driven by a sharp rise in suicides among older teenage boys, according to new research.

In that year alone, suicide claimed the lives of 5,016 males and 1,225 females between 15 and 24 in the United States, researchers reported Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Assn. MORE

Hello Sister. Every time Jesus sends someone to HELL that’s the DEATH penalty. NO?

Another sad state of affairs where this immigration officer tried driving through protesters, was worried about his safety. What most news outlets fail to mention, protesters banged on doors and windshields of his truck. Other states have made it legal for drivers to hit protesters if the driver didn’t do so willfully.

We have no reliable figures on just how many priests in the Catholic Church are gay. The Vatican has conducted many studies on its own clergy but never on this subject. In the United States, however, where there are 37,000 priests, no independent study has found fewer than 15 percent to be gay, and some have found as many as 60 percent. The consensus in my own research over the past few months converged on around 30 to 40 percent among parish priests and considerably more than that — as many as 60 percent or higher — among religious orders like the Franciscans or the Jesuits.

What is happening in the West . . . in Europe as well? The ruling elites have broken away from the people, because of the gap between the interests of the elites and the overwhelming majority of the people . . . .

For much too long, it’s politically incorrect to bring up one’s religious affiliation. As long as we ignore Satan’s role in our lives nothing will be accomplished. Without Baptism or the love to please God, Satan has the inside track in our lives. The longer we ignore these issues and continue to be politically correct, we will always suffer the consequences and continue to be morally wrong.
Sincerely:
Joseph B.D. Saraceno

“Go gays,” Rapinoe said, according to Yahoo Sports. “You can’t win a championship without gays on your team. It’s never been done before. Ever. That’s science right there.”

Well crazy as this sounds, I first heard the rumor around the late 70’s? There was this Traditional Catholic publication called “The Spark” I can’t remember the editors name but that he was a CIA operative in Vietnam during the war. I think from Arizona. He stated in his publication that Carters Mother Lillian was Joseph Kennedy’s secretary when he had a brokerage firm in New York. She got pregnant from Joe ran off to Georgia and got married. Jimmy Carter came from nowhere and became Governor of Georgia then President.
