TOKYO (AP) — A volcano in southern Japan has erupted for the first time in 250 years, and authorities set up a no-go zone around the mountain.
Mount Io spewed smoke and ash high into the sky Thursday in its first eruption since 1768. Japan’s Meteorological Agency on Friday expanded a no-go zone to the entire mountain from previously just around the volcano’s crater. Continue reading

Dear Reader:
Next week I will return to the thesis on Sacrament of Confirmation, concluding the treatise on Mary, Co-Redemptrix, in this issue. In between, on April 25 the Church will be asking Divine intervention as she prays the Litanies and processes through the streets. You may say this is now rarely done, and this may be true. Still, it is part of the Church Tradition and it is wonderful in those communities where it is still possible. The spirit of the liturgy will continue to be that of asking God’s divine intervention that we may be protected from natural disasters, wars, pestilence and famine. Continue reading
X Father Malachi Martin was on the Art Bell show one night talking about the Fatima Secret, the Vatican II Council. I listened to it for over two hours, then he tells everybody he took a vow to never reveal it.
We will get a true pope again some day.
I wrote an article of what he said on the show if anyone is interested.
Alex Jones, (the right wing’s Jesse Jackson) fake news reports are finally coming to an end once this case hits the courts. It’s sad one can’t charge these BUM’S criminally and put them in jail as well.
Three parents whose children were killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012 filed a defamation lawsuit on Tuesday against Alex Jones, the right-wing conspiracy theorist who has long claimed the shooting was “completely fake” and a “giant hoax” perpetrated by opponents of the Second Amendment.

St. Pope Anicetus Feast day April 17.Funny how the U.S. coordinated the attack during the Octave of a Syrian Pope.
Anicetus was a Syrian from Emesa. He became pope about 155 and actively opposed Marcionism and Gnosticism. His pontificate saw the appearance of the controversy between East and West over the date of Easter. St. Polycarp, a discipleof John, is reported to have visited him in Rome about the dispute, which was to accelerate and grow more heated over the following centuries. MORE
All of these AntiChrist popes will be popular with most Catholics because they have embraced all the religions of the world.
Amid the discussion triggered by Capuchin Father Thomas Weinandy’s recent decision to go public with a critical letter to Pope Francis, one well-known Catholic writer dismissed Weinandy’s claim that Catholics are “scandalized” by the pontiff, saying, “Bosh. Francis is probably the most popular pope in history.” MORE
Pope Francis called Tuesday for unity in the Catholic Church and blamed its divisions on the devil.
It was the second time in as many days that Francis has warned about the destructive work of the devil after making headlines recently by seeming to deny the existence of hell. MORE
In case you missed my article on the Creation falling during the same time as first day of the Passion. I became puzzled why Palm Sunday wasn’t one of the mystery’s of the Rosary. In my creation article I point out that Palm Sunday was the first day of the creation. So the significance here is, that the Jews are hailing Jesus as King, King of the Jews on the day He started the creation. Wow, I said this gives Palm Sunday a little more credibility. I decided to check out the Jewish calendar and customs. I have a Jewish teaching Catalog that I use to learn from. Well guess what, The Jews have many New Years or dedication Years. There first Month of the year is not their creation month. Instead Nissan is dedicated to all their “Reign of Kings.” Wow again, here is The King of Kings riding into Jerusalem on a donkey on their Reign of KINGS DAY, (If true) and hardly anyone can see the connection. Oh Oh but wait a minute, I see also that their New Years day is also their day of the creation, but it’s the month of Tishri-our September-October. Obviously one of us has the wrong month?

On April 4, the presidents of Iran, Russia and Turkey met in Ankara to hold a trilateral summit within the framework of the Astana process to discuss the latest developments in Syria. It was the second round of high-level talks between the three heads of government after their first meeting in Russia’s Black Sea resort of Sochi on Nov. 22, in which they agreed to continue their contacts in order to facilitate the process of finding a peaceful solution to the Syrian conflict.

Father Alvarez, eloquently confirmed my stated position on the movie
The Blood of Martyrs Is the Seed of Christians
Movie review of Paul, Apostle of Christ
Fr. Paul Alvarez
The film is based on the Acts of the Apostles, which Catholic Tradition has always accepted as canonical and has always attributed to St. Luke. Only some heretical sects, such as the Ebionites, Marcionitas and Manichaeans, denied the authenticity of this book. Thus they rejected St. Paul’s teaching in its whole or parts. Continue reading

An initiative in San Antonio has brought together clergy from different faiths to find a solution for affordable housing in a city where 19 percent of residents live at or below the poverty line. MORE

Believe it or not. I watched this movie when I was a teenager and the one song they play was “Again” I forgot the name but the tune never left me. It took me awhile to put the song with the right picture together but finally found it and I was able to watch mostly all of it last night on the computer. Of course I fast forward some scenes which were not necessary to watch still took 45 min.
