That creepy looking son can’t wait to get his grubby thieving hands on that money…..sad. His dad won’t get to enjoy any of it with him around. And probably won’t live much longer either—if you get my drift.
I just watched this very video on yt last week! I enjoy this sort of stories sometimes. Some are fake. Or they change the story a bit. Thank you Pierre for this beautiful story.
Tue Dec 16, 2025 - 3:28 pm EST WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) — A Christian church in California that was ordered to pay $1.2 million in fines for refusing to enforce local mask mandates as it continued to hold services in 2020 and 2021 during the COVID-19 outbreak has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the lower court’s ruling. “This case stands as one of the clearest examples of government overreach against a church in modern American history,” declared Advocates for Faith & Freedom, the attorney group that has long represented Calvary Chapel in San Jose (CCSJ), California, and its Pastor Mike McClure, in a statement shared with LifeSiteNews. Advocates for Faith & Freedom (AFF) is now working in partnership with the American Center for Law & Justice (ACLJ) in D.C. to petition the Supreme Court. CCSJ began to openly defy its Silicon Valley county’s harsh lockdown rules after an initial two months of compliance in 2020, recognizing the serious spiritual needs of their congregants …
Both the state of California and the Catholic Church have been gravely sinful. The fact that most of the time the Church supports the state, that is what is a crime.
I can't find one link from the SSPX showing the SSPX Chapels in Russia. Something is not right. I love the SSPX but they are not being honest when it comes to Russia. Not only that, but trying to search for a Chapel in Russia is impossible. They don't list even one, when I know there is at least two of them. Why don't they mention even one Chapel in Russia? Josef Schuztman has mentioned the one he attends and I believe another one in Russia. This is from a Russian site where they mention where the SSPX Chapels are. They list at least 3 in different cities. But not how many there are. The largest number of Brotherhood followers are concentrated in France, Germany, Switzerland and Austria. The Superior General of the Brotherhood is the Italian priest Davide Pagliarani, who succeeded Bishop Bernard Fellay. The Brotherhood's chapels of St. Pius X are also located in Moscow, Saint Petersburg and Minsk. Священническое братство святого Пия X — Википедия
I am not being allowed to post this directly. So copy + paste job.. A Cantata for Darya Dugina (off Alexander Dugin's X page):- Rainaldo Graziani, Angelo Inglese A Cantata for Darya Dugina Excerpts from the dialogue between Angelo Inglese and Rainaldo Graziani on the genesis of the musical work. RG: Angelo, how did you decide to structure your new musical creation? Al: It is a scenic cantata in nine stations. I wanted to use the term “station” to give the cantata a sacred character, as if it were a liturgical journey. Each station represents an icon, where music is a vehicle for the liberation of the soul from passions, for detachment from the material world, and leads the listener to the crossroads of Dasha's thoughts. The cantata is divided into nine tracks: Prologue (Дого); II. Там, где нет иллюзий (Where there are no illusions); III. Взлетая выше (Living on the edge); IV. Призрак в неизвестность (Leap into the unknown); V. Быть светом (Being light…More

Three Hong Kong judges found Jimmy Lai, 78, guilty under the National Security Law. Hong Kong media tycoon and Catholic convert Jimmy Lai, 78, was found guilty on Monday of two counts of conspiracy to collude with foreign forces and one count of sedition under a Beijing-imposed national security law. The founder of the now-defunct newspaper Apple Daily, had pleaded not guilty to all charges. The offences carry a potential life sentence, with sentencing expected at a later date. Lai has been in custody since 2020. The trial was heard by a panel of three judges without a jury, as permitted under the national security law, and has attracted worldwide attention. Critics argue that the case exemplifies the erosion of freedoms in Hong Kong. The United Kingdom has strongly criticised the verdict. In a statement posted on X, Britain’s Foreign Office described the prosecution as politically motivated and said that Lai had been targeted for peacefully exercising his right to freedom of expression. …More

We remember our childhood years, A joyful time, when snow reached our knees, When we searched for the star in the sky. Where are the children of those days? Where is the joy we once knew? Maybe it’s gone because we no longer want children, Cats and dogs are enough for us now. So say: “Merry Christmas, I love you” — And that is enough, Love will mend what has gone wrong.
