TOKYO — The Philippines’ shock inflation spike in April is a serious warning sign — an economic canary in the coal mine that shouldn’t be ignored. The 7.2% year-on-year jump is roughly double the first-quarter 3.4% growth rate. Clearly, the Philippines falling into the stagflation zone wasn’t on President Ferdinand Marcos Jr’s 2026 Bingo card. The predicament is more than just an abrupt wakeup call for officials in Manila. It’s a distress signal to developing Asia. The Philippines, it’s safe to say, is Asia’s first Iran war inflationary domino to fall. It’s the vanguard of economic trauma to come — trauma that will only get worse the longer the Strait of Hormuz remains closed. What worries economists most is how widespread the price increases are proving to be. From food to transportation to utilities, the scale and breadth of increases mean Philippine inflation is likely to top 8% in the second quarter. That makes it a virtual lock that the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), the …
Hey @tom grassington Welcome to the forum! I haven't followed up on La Quinta Columna since the early 20's thanks for posting this! I found their work quite illuminating! I'll have to check it out later! I'm sure it will be good!
The Blessed Virgin Mary, Restoration of Edenic Motherhood Modern Christianity often speaks of the marriage bed as though it were pure, uncomplicated delight—an unmixed gift, innocent in itself, and untouched by the catastrophe of the Fall. That is a sentimental error. Perrenial Tradition is far more severe and far more realistic: marriage is good, but the marriage bed of fallen man is not Edenic innocence. It is generation after the Fall, marked by concupiscence, bodily loss, and the need for moral order. To call every aspect of the marriage bed “beautiful” in the same sense that creation itself is beautiful is to flatten the doctrine of original sin. It is to forget that humanity now begets children in a wounded condition, under the shadow of mortality. Tradition never denies that marriage is lawful and honorable. What it denies is the modern fantasy that fallen desire is pure simply because it occurs inside a marriage bed. Marriage goods regulate and excuse what is otherwise disordered …More
Revelations to St. Britget of Sweden, 1 book, 26 chapter ... Those who unite with divine love and fear for the sake of procreation and to raise children for the honor of God are my spiritual temple where I wish to dwell as the third with them. But people in this age are joined in marriage for seven reasons: First, because of facial beauty. Second, because of wealth. Third, because of the despicable pleasure and indecent joy they get out of their impure intercourse. Fourth, because of feasts with friends and uncontrolled gluttony. Fifth, because of vanity in clothing and eating, in joking and entertainment and games and other vanities. Sixth, for the sake of procreating children but not to raise them for the honor of God or good works but for worldly riches and honor. Seventh, they come together for the sake of lust and they are like brute beasts in their lustful desires. They come to the doors of my church with one mind and consent, but all their desires and inner thoughts are completely …More
Rev Gerd Neumeier of the Archdiocese of Bamberg has justified his “Star Wars” service held on April 18 talking to Katholisch.de on May 3. Neumeier emphasized that it was not a Eucharist, but a Liturgy of the Word. The Church’s liturgy is “diverse”, he said: “When people hear the word ‘church service,’ most associate it with the same Mass over and over again, especially in connection with a priest.” The event began with a lightsaber duel between Darth Vader and a Jedi knight. This was followed by the Kyrie, a first reading, Psalm 27, the Hallelujah, and the Gospel account of the temptations of Jesus. According to Neumeier, Star Wars, with its themes of good and evil, light and darkness, is a perfect bridge to an encounter with God. Neumeier announced that the format would be repeated: “Because the first one was received so well, we believe we are moving in a good and sustainable direction.” The Star Wars service is part of the “bookable church services” project of the youth office …More

Israel is taking out the last remaining residential towers in Gaza to make it impossible for the remaining Palestinians to live there and turning them into refugees.
One of the most terrifying attacks carried out by Israel, where it completely destroyed the Mashteha Tower within a matter of seconds, as it is considered one of the largest and most beautiful towers in Gaza, and houses thousands of families living in it, despite the thousands of tents that were located on every side of this tower, aircraft launched no less than 6 deadly missiles that resulted in thousands of lethal shrapnel fragments, which led to the destruction of thousands of tents that were the only shelter for the families. This is not just a war, this is genocide.
It is fake because the intent is to show the evil Jews destroying the housing for good Palestinian people,the building was obviously in need of demolition to make the area safe even for the Arabs. I am no friend of the Jew nor am I his enemy , but I think it is unfair that so many have a knee jerk reaction and blame nearly everything on Zionism etc. the real problem in the world is so many turning their backs to God regardless of race. Is Biden,Harris Pelosi really any better than the Netin what ever his name is? The scariest thing in this world today is a pope and hierarchy in the Catholic Church who are far from being Catholic. They are leading more people to hell than all the Jews everywhere.
Newt Lee Tells of the Talk He Had at the Police Station Friday, May 9th, 1913 Newt Lee, the negro night watchman at the National Pencil factory, was recalled to the stand and asked to describe any conversation he had held with Leo M. Frank since both men came into police custody. Lee said he had not spoken with Frank at the jail, but that the two had talked at the police station. Frank came into the room where Lee was being held and greeted him. "How are you feeling, Newt?" he asked. "Not so good, Mr. Frank," Lee replied. Lee told Frank it was hard on him, an innocent man, to be sitting handcuffed to a chair. Frank responded that he knew Lee was innocent, but added that he believed Lee knew something about the murder. Lee said he then told Frank that the officers believed the girl had been killed on the second floor, and that during his rounds of the building he passed through that very room every half hour. He would have known, he said, if the murder had been committed there. Frank's …More
