As I came into the airport, next to me, waiting for a shuttle, was a Jewish couple from France, with seven very large suitcases. They were speaking French.
It was clear to me that they are among the 1,000 of Jews leaving France. Read my other posts on this.
God bless this young couple.

Grindon School in Sunderland and Durham Free School are being possibly closed for not teaching anti-Christian views on lgtb issues.
We shall see which "Catholic" schools are really Catholic.
Religious schools, as I have written on this blog for years, must be totally independent of all government money.
GB needs something like NAPCIS schools.

Ah, New York
Passing through New York, I saw a television blurb that the University of New York system does not want professors calling students Miss or Mrs, or Mr. as this offends the lgtb community. I never let my students call me by my first name and I always addressed them formally. No more "manners" and sense of hierarchy here.
Also, Fox just hired the first transgender reporter on tv, which I refuse to capitalize.

Fact and Fiction

When I put the Knights of Karl into my last story, I did not realize there was a League of Prayer dedicated to Blessed Karl.
Check this out. Blessed Karl is another saint for our time.
"The decisive task of Christians consists in seeking, recognizing and following God's will in all things. The Christian statesman, Karl of Austria, confronted this challenge every day. To his eyes, war appeared as "something appalling." Amid the tumult of the First World War, he strove to promote the peace initiative of my Predecessor, Benedict XV.
From the beginning, the Emperor Karl conceived of his office as a holy service to his people. His chief concern was to follow the Christian vocation to holiness also in his political actions. For this reason, his thoughts turned to social assistance. May he be an example for all of us, especially for those who have political responsibilities in Europe today!"

Why No Community In America?
Mark 10:29-30
29 Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields, for my sake and for the sake of the good news, 30 who will not receive a hundredfold now in this age—houses, brothers and sisters, mothers and children, and fields, with persecutions—and in the age to come eternal life.
It has finally dawned on me why there are so few Catholic communities in America and why people resist building community.
Four reasons, quickly.
1) Status and family pride are more important that Christian community. People are hung up on genealogies and cultivating family over any other type of gatherings or sacrifice.
2) The Kingdom of God is not a priority as Christ intended it to be. The early Church left the pagan families and joined community. Catholics are not leaving pagans who refuse to convert and thereby, weaken their own faith and neglect the building of real Catholic communities.
So, this is not happening. Catholics insist on spending too much time with unbelievers who may even abuse them and their faith.
3) "Rugged individualism", another false American ideal, interferes with the creation of community.
I am afraid that many will fall away and be lost in the coming tribulation because they had the time to create Catholic communities and did not do so.
Remember, Christian communities grew because the pagans saw how the Catholics loved one another. This is not the case in the States in areas where there are no communities.
One last point.
4) Americans have chosen to live in fear. We now have a culture of mistrust and fear. Part of this is the lack of the development of the gift of knowledge, which brings discernment, given in Confirmation.
Without community, the remnant will be very small, indeed.
Goodbye to Ireland, where economics run politics
The soul of Ireland is gone.
The country that has sold virtual space to other nations...
and has lost its sovereignty . The Irish have institutionalized rebellion. And, lost individual rebellion.
If the individual is rebellious, that is a healthy.
But, what happens when a government becomes rebellious?
The government is not beholding to anyone and is a reverse democracy, which is an illiberal democracy or an inverse totalitarianism.
If you do not get this, read this from wiki:
In Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt by Chris Hedges and Joe Sacco, inverted totalitarianism is described as a system where corporations have corrupted and subverted democracy and where economics trumps politics.[5] In inverted totalitarianism, every natural resource and every living being is commodified and exploited to collapse as the citizenry is lulled and manipulated into surrendering their liberties and their participation in government through excess consumerism and sensationalism.[6][7]
Read more here on the US as well, but this has happened already in Ireland.
The book by Wolin mentioned in this article is key.Democracy Incorporated: Managed Democracy and the Specter of Inverted Totalitarianism
Managed democracy
Wolin believes the democracy of the United States is sanitized of political participation, and describes it as managed democracy: "a political form in which governments are legitimated by elections that they have learned to control".[13] Under managed democracy, the electorate is prevented from having a significant impact on policies adopted by the state through the continuous employment of public relations techniques.[14]
Wolin believes the United States resembles Nazi Germany in one major way without an inversion: the essential role propaganda plays in the system. According to Wolin, whereas the production of propaganda was crudely centralized in Nazi Germany, in the United States it is left to highly concentrated media corporations, thus maintaining the illusion of a "free press".[15] According to this model, dissent is allowed, though the corporate media serve as a filter, allowing most people, with limited time available to keep themselves apprised of current events, to hear only points of view that the corporate media deem "serious".[16][4][17]
According to Wolin, the United States has two main totalizing dynamics:
- The first, directed outward, finds its expression in the Global War on Terror and in the Bush Doctrine that the United States has the right to launch preemptive wars. This amounts to the United States seeing as illegitimate the attempt by any state to resist its domination.[18][17][4]
- The second dynamic, directed inward, involves the subjection of the mass of the populace to economic "rationalization", with continual "downsizing" and "outsourcing" of jobs abroad and dismantling of what remains of the welfare state created by U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal and President Lyndon B. Johnson's Great Society. Thus neoliberalism is an integral component of inverted totalitarianism. The state of insecurity in which this places the public serves the useful function of making people feelhelpless, thus making it less likely they will become politically active, and thus helping maintain the first dynamic.[19][20][4][17]
and more
Kevin Zeese and Margaret Flowers expressed the view that:[7]
This is what happens when the Lord God is set aside for the god, Mammon.UPDATE: I am reminded of what a holy hermit said over a year ago. Under the Druids, satan tried to get Ireland for himself. Now, he is succeeding.

| Love the Lord and walk in his ways |

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? How great was that servant who knew how he was given light, whence it came, and what sort of man he was when he was favoured by that light. The light he saw was not that which fades at dusk, but the light which no eye has seen. Souls brightened by this light do not fall into sin or stumble on vice.
Our Lord said: Walk while you have the light in you. What other light did he mean but himself? For it was he who said: I came as a light into the world, so that those who have eyes may not see and the blind may receive the light. The Lord then is our light, the sun of justice and righteousness, who has shone on his Catholic Church spread throughout the world. The prophet spoke as a figure of the Church when he cried: The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?
The spiritual man who has been thus illumined does not limp or leave the path, but bears all things. Glimpsing our true country from afar, he puts up with adversities; he is not saddened by the things of time, but finds his strength in God. He lowers his pride and endures, possessing patience through humility. That true light which enlightens every man who comes into the world bestows itself on those who reverence it, shining where it wills, on whom it wills, and revealing itself according to the will of God the Son.
When this light begins to shine upon the man who sat in darkness and the shadow of death, in the darkness of evil and the shadow of sin, he is shocked, he calls himself to account, repents of his misdeeds in shame, and says: The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? Great is this salvation, my brethren, which fears neither sickness nor lethargy and disregards pain. We should then in the fullest sense not only with our voice but with our very soul cry out, The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? If he enlightens and saves me, whom shall I fear? Even though the dark shadows of evil suggestions crowd about, The Lord is my light. They can approach, but cannot prevail; they can lay siege to our heart, but cannot conquer it. Though the blindness of concupiscence assails us, again we say: The Lord is my light.For he is our strength; he gives himself to us and we give ourselves to him. Hasten to this physician while you can, or you may not be able to find him when you want him.john

For the fun of it...a Tiger Moth Plane

CONDEMNED by the Church Reminder
Premillennialism, in Christian eschatology, is the belief that Jesus will literally and physically return to the earth before Christ's reign for 1,000 years during a golden age of peace.
Dispensationalism is an evangelical, futurist, Biblical interpretation that understands God to have related to human beings in different ways under different Biblical covenants in a series of "dispensations," or periods in history.
As a system, dispensationalism is expounded in the writings of John Nelson Darby (1800–82) and the Plymouth Brethren movement,[1]:10 and propagated through works such asCyrus Scofield's Scofield Reference Bible. The theology of dispensationalism consists of a distinctive eschatological end times perspective, as all dispensationalists hold topremillennialism and most hold to a pretribulation rapture.

Connecting Dots and The To Be Continued...
Remember this posts I wrote just a while ago? This is the continuation I promised.
Many ideologies grow up around these false seers. Grace is set aside for the words of the visionaries.
As reality attacks the false visions, grace fails as the people involved ignore Church teaching on these matters. And, as grace and ideologies crumble, people fall into either atheism or gross dualism.
Well, guess what is one of the demons worshiped by the Masons? The pythonic demon. I learned this somewhat recently.
See also my post on "Diabolical Influence" from December 17th, 2014 and January 15th, 2014, on "The Snakes Return".
Myths and truth overlap. I was re-reading the passage in Acts 16:16 when St. Paul gets fed-up with the false seer and exorcises the girl from what is called in the Douay-Rheims, the Pythonic spirit.
16 And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain girl, having a pythonical spirit, met us, who brought to her masters much gain by divining.

On A Demon of The False Seer
 |
| The Serpent Column from Delphi-Wiki |
16 And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain girl, having a pythonical spirit, met us, who brought to her masters much gain by divining.
17 This same following Paul and us, cried out, saying: These men are the servants of the most high God, who preach unto you the way of salvation.
18 And this she did many days. But Paul being grieved, turned, and said to the spirit: I command thee, in the name of Jesus Christ, to go out from her. And he went out the same hour.
It never dawned on me until today that the demon was called "Python" in the Vulgate. An old article reminded me of this when I began a study of a false healer who was connected to a python.
Now, one can draw a line to Genesis and the snake in the garden, and also to Delphi, which I have written about on this blog before, as a place of demonic seances, relating to the pythonic demon which in myth, was overcome by Apollo.
In some myths, the priestess seer is called Pythia, and she could be seen as having a pythonic demon. Her name became the name of the main seer, the Pythia. Also, there is a sculpture of the python at Delos.
Therefore, St. Paul is making the connection concerning demonic seers.
Someone indicated that in the Latin Vulgate, in the passage about King Saul seeking out the Witch of Endor, that the "divining spirit" is also referred to as "pythonic". They were correct.
Note--- 1 Samuel 28
7 dixitque Saul servis suis quaerite mihi mulierem habentem pythonem et vadam ad eam et sciscitabor per illam et dixerunt servi eius ad eum est mulier habens pythonem in Aendor
8 mutavit ergo habitum suum vestitusque est aliis vestimentis abiit ipse et duo viri cum eo veneruntque ad mulierem nocte et ait divina mihi in pythone et suscita mihi quem dixero tibi
The evidence is growing for a real identification with false seers and a demon called "Python".
For years, I have been studying the characteristics and importance of the demon mentioned in Revelation.
For many reasons, this demon is one worshiped today by a certain group of people. And, as it is the same demon or types of demons, this makes the connections more interesting. I wrote an entire post on this in the autumn, about theDestroyer, Abaddon, or Apollyon.

http://supertradmum-etheldredasplace.blogspot.ie/2014/10/for-synod-members.html
So the demon is worshiped today by a certain group and is the same demon of false prophecy, false visions.
Revelation 9:11 Douay-Rheims
11 A king, the angel of the bottomless pit; whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek Apollyon; in Latin Exterminans,
This demon is attacking the Church now in many areas.
One, I cannot list them all-but false seers are only one column of warriors against Christ and the truth. I have listed many false seers on this blog. The Pythonic demon....
Two, Coatlicue and Qpetzalcoatl, Aztec serpent gods demanded human sacrifice, especially the first demon. I think abortion is connected to these evil spirits--the Pythonic demon again.
Three, Apollyon is worshiped by a secret society. Yes, yet again...
This powerful demon and cohorts have not left us alone...and are mentioned in all the above references dating back to Genesis.

We are still in the middle=adventus medius, but coming closer
Whereas people had previously spoken only of a twofold coming of Christ—once in Bethlehem and again at the end of time—Saint Bernard of Clairvaux spoke of an adventus medius, an intermediate coming, thanks to which he periodically renews his intervention in history. I believe that Bernard’s distinction strikes just the right note. We cannot pin down when the world will end. Christ himself says that no one knows the hour, not even the Son. But we must always stand in the imminence of his coming, as it were—and we must be certain, especially in the midst of tribulations, that he is near. —POPE BENEDICT XVI, Light of the World, p.182-183, A Conversation With Peter Seewald

OK, Mac update.
The worse McDonald's was in Valletta, poor service, grumpy staff, dirty and inferior food.
The best McDonald's was in Dublin on Grafton Street, great food, very clean, happy staff.
Low Population
There are only 4.5 million people in Ireland (Eire). This is social engineering suicide.
