WHALE WATCHING: [4:16] – Passengers and crew had a once-in-a-lifetime sighting off the coast of Dana Strands Beach in Dana Point, California, when a gray whale gave birth right in front of them! Gray whales prefer to give birth in the warm and protected lagoons of Baja California, Mexico, but some calves just won’t wait and are born during the migration from their feeding grounds in the Bering and Chukchi Seas near Alaska to the mating and birthing lagoons of Baja. Gray whale calves are about 15 feet long when they’re born; adults average between 40 to 50 feet in length.

LIFE: In August of 2021, 5,706 babies died in elective abortions in Texas. Since then, the Supreme Court overturned Roe and Texas banned abortions on fetuses with detectable heart beats. In August of 2022, only three unborn babies were aborted in Texas, all to save the life of the mother. The news was not so good for the unborn the world over. Abortion was again the number one cause of human death worldwide in 2022, with an estimated 44 million dead.

OHIO: Keris Riebel was a 22-year-old newlywed who was married on October 8th to her husband, Jordan. She grew up in the church, and she and her husband, Jordan, were members at Trinity Baptist Church in Marion, Ohio.

Her obituary says, “Keris had a great love for Our Lord. She loved the bible and was devoted daily in reading the scriptures. Her heart for the Lord was reflected in the way she lived life, always having a smile, and her loving spirit and kindness for others.”

Not the Bee writes, “The brutality of the crime, the location in a sleepy Midwestern shopping center, and the tragic loss of a young, beautiful bride with her life ahead of her make this the kind of story that shocks a nation. And yet nearly no outlets are reporting on it. Why is that?”

Take one look at the skin color of the perp and the skin color of the victim and you’ll know why. The only good news is that the perp is in custody and charged with murder.

PRAYER: In recent years, we’ve seen high school coaches fired for kneeling in prayer and Tim Tebow treated like crap because he knelt in prayer. The majority of NFL players who knelt during the National Anthem were treated like heroes, while the true heroes … the brave minority … who stood were treated like crap.

So naturally, I was surprised when, after Damar Hamlin’s collapse, both teams knelt on the field together to pray. Since then, an ESPN host prayed during his broadcast; CLICK https://rumble.com/v242y7u-espn-host-stuns-network-is-moved-to-prayer-on-live-tv.html.

Also, when retired Super Bowl champion Benjamin Watson was interviewed on CNN by noted leftie, Anderson Cooper, he said he hoped the tragedy would serve as a wakeup call for those who witnessed the terrifying incident to think about life after death. But that the tragic event also presented a “tremendous opportunity … because the questions about what happens after this life, where will you spend eternity are coming up for all of us, [and] thank God that he provides an answer through his son, Jesus Christ.”

POPE FRANCIS: Is he the last pope? [1:58] – On December 12, 2022, the pontiff announced that he had had a vision of great destruction and desolation coming for mankind. He’s not the first.

FATHER OLIVEIRA: On Feb. 11, 2020, a Brazilian priest had a vision in which he saw Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI die in 2022, which has happened. He also saw what Pope Francis may be facing. [8:32] – I was most struck by the time line in the vision, which started with 2022 and ended in 2029.

GARABANDAL: Following the death of Pope John XXIII, Conchita (one of the Garabandal seers) received a message from Our Blessed Mother. “After this pope, there are only three left. Then [it will be] the end of times.”

Soon after, she noted that there would another who would govern the Church for such a short time that she wasn’t counting him. The uncounted pope was, of course, John Paul I, who died on September 28, 1978, just 33 days after his coronation. The three popes Our Lady referred to then were Paul VI, John Paul II and Benedict XVI.

Fr. José Luis Saavedra points out that the Spanish word Our Lady used for “then” does not mean “immediately.” Perhaps “then” covers the 9 years, 9 months, and 18 days between March 13, 2013, when Jorge Cardinal Bergoglio became Pope Francis and December 31, 2022, when Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI died and questions of Francis’ legitimacy became moot.

ST. MALACHY: In 1595, a Benedictine published a prophecy that he attributed to St. Malachy, the 12th-century Archbishop of Armagh. It consists of short, cryptic Latin phrases that allege to name all the popes until the end of time. It has been dismissed for centuries as a forgery, owing largely to the fact that the popes listed before 1595 were described in ways that are easy to understand, while the ones after are cryptic.

However, some analysts note the significant change in style between the two groups may suggest that the first group is a post-dated forgery, while the second group is genuine prophecy. And lately, with End Times stuff popping up all over, people have gotten interested in the list again. Here are the cryptic Latin phrases, translations, and proposed interpretations for the popes since 1963.

108: Flos florum > Flower of flowers – Pope Paul VI (1963-78). His papal crest had three fleurs-de-lis on it.

109: De medietate lunæ > On the half moon – Pope John Paul I (1978). His given name, Albino, means white, like the light of the moon. And perhaps the half moon refers to the brevity of his reign.

110: De labore solis > From the labor of the sun or Of the eclipse of the sun – Pope John Paul II (1978–2005). There were solar eclipses on both the day of his birth (May 18, 1920) and the day of his funeral (April 8, 2005).

111: Gloria oliuæ > Glory of the olive – Pope Benedict XVI (2005 – 2013). Pope Benedict XVI explained his reasons for choosing the name Benedict. “Firstly, I remember Pope Benedict XV, that courageous prophet of peace, who guided the Church through turbulent times of war. In his footsteps, I place my ministry in the service of reconciliation and harmony between peoples.” Olives, of course, are a symbol of peace.

112: In p[er]ſecutione. extrema S.R.E. ſedebit. Petrus Romanus, qui paſcet oues in multis tribulationibus: quibus tranſactis ciuitas ſepticollis diruetur, & Iudex tremẽdus iudicabit populum ſuum. Finis. > In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church, there will sit. Peter the Roman, who will pasture his sheep in many tribulations, and when these things are finished, the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the dreadful judge will judge his people. The End.” – Pope Francis (2013-Present). Skeptics point to the apparent lack of any connection between Jorge Mario/Francis and Peter the Roman. I’d love to know what his Confirmation name was, but I didn’t find it anywhere. IF he is Peter the Roman, perhaps it merely refers to the first pope, St. Peter, and the fact that Bergoglio, who was born and served in Argentina, became a Roman when he accepted the post of Bishop of Rome.

GRAMMY NOTES: When I was young and single, I drove a school bus. When I was between runs, one of the single guys asked me to ride along with him. He was kind of a jerk, so I don’t know why I went. But I did.

He dropped off his little group of kindergartners for their afternoon half-day, then carelessly got his bus into a bad spot where he would have to back up … something we were taught to avoid, because buses have such enormous blind spots behind them.

This moron started to just slam the bus into reverse when I said, “Wait! I’ll spot you!” and ran to the back of the bus. A late-leaving morning kindergartner was walking across the parking lot, likely on his way home for lunch. It shook me deeply to know how close that innocent little boy came to being killed that day.

I’ve thought of that so often since then and wondered about how much evil God prevents that we don’t know about!

The Chaplet of Divine Mercy adapted for use with St. Michael beads

Begin with the Sign of the Cross.

On the St. Michael medal, recite the St. Michael prayer:

“St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.”

On the tail, recite the Creed on the first single bead, then do a “Power Pack” (i.e., Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be) on the next three beads.

On the first of each of the 9 sets of chaplet beads

“Eternal Father, I offer You the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for the sins of [intention] in Purgatory.”

On each of the 3 beads following: “For the sake of His Sorrowful Passion, have mercy on them.”

On the chain before the next single bead: “Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on them.”

Intentions: You can leave it generic and just say “the poor souls,” but you can also specify groups of people who are on your heart. If I don’t have anything in particular, I like to let God bring images into my mind. Doing this has led me to pray for first responders, electricians, dental hygienists, and rice farmers.

After finishing the chaplet:

“Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase your mercy in us that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself.”

End with the Sign of the Cross.

EDUCATION: The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals (the 9th!) has ruled that wearing a MAGA hat is constitutionally-protected free speech.

NFL: Prayers needed for Damar Hamlin, who suffered cardiac arrest during the Bills-Bengals game. Play was suspended while dozens of rough, tough professional football players wept and knelt in prayer in front of hundreds of thousands of people. As I write this, the latest news is that he is in a coma, on a ventilator, and in critical condition.

Hamlin was drafted by the Bills in April of 2021. By November of that year, 95% of all NFL players had chosen the jab over daily testing. Hamlin’s case is getting a lot of attention. Of course, we pray for a full recovery, but in the likely event he ends up dead or crippled for life, I also pray that the vaxxx gets blamed. N.b., the last article below – “Sudden Cardiac Death Risk in Contact Sports” – discusses the issue.

RASMUSSEN: Overall, 48% of adults surveyed said there are legitimate reasons to be concerned about the safety of the ‘rona vaxxxines. The breakdowns by gender and age were remarkably similar. Ditto the partisan breakdown: Republicans (60%), Democrats (44%), unaffiliated (43%). N.b., a 16 point spread is really small for any highly politicized issue.

Interestingly, more Democrats (33%) than Republicans and unaffiliated (26% each) reported suspecting that someone they know might have died because of the jab. This disparity is in line with the fact that people tend to associate with like-minded people and more Democrats (85%) than Republicans (63%) got the jab.

S&G: My heart breaks for this man. He fought so hard to save his son, but his whacko mother has won the right to take him to California and start him on life-altering puberty blockers. I can’t find anywhere that the kid got his own lawyer and an unbiased shrink to talk to him without either parent present and find out what he wants!

In highly vaxxxed nations, December live birth rates continued to be 5% to 15% below pre-vaxxx levels, while excess deaths continued to be 3% to 20% higher.

Igor Chudov writes, “It could be a completely random coincidence that a zoonotic virus, oddly containing HIV code and Moderna-patented “cancer vaccine” sequences from patent 9,587,003, spreads worldwide.

“It could be a completely random coincidence that the bats who naturally developed this virus flew 1,000 miles from their bat caves to Wuhan, where there is more than one virological bio laboratory, surreptitiously infected people near those laboratories, and flew away undetected.

“It could be a completely random coincidence that the Sars-Cov-2 virus, having an unusual ability to infect immune cells DC-Sign receptor and destroy immune systems, was described in Peter Daszak’s 2018 DEFUSE proposal.

“It could be a completely random coincidence that our health authorities were so well prepared via the “Event 201” exercise, conducted a month before the pandemic started, and involved the WEF, Bill Gates, and China CDC.

“It could be a completely random bit of luck that scientists were reportedly able to develop a novel vaccine in just two days and helpfully worked on the “Novel Coronavirus vaccine” in July 2019.

“It could be an unfortunate, unexpected accident that the Covid vaccine did not work and fueled the pandemic instead of stopping it.

“It could be a simple bureaucratic mistake of the pandemic preparedness organizational machine that taking the immune-system-destroying, HIV-peptide-containing genetic code was mandated for everyone without due diligence.

“It is entirely possible that the press, which Bill Gates lavished with $319 million, purely independently stoked unwarranted fear and caused a completely unplanned “mass formation” of bureaucratic action, leading to forced vaccinations of young people.”

OR it all could have been a carefully planned, successfully implemented form of mass murder.

I believe the beings described in Rev. 16:13-14 will likely be demons posing as Roswell gray/greens. And we’re being groomed to accept them unquestioningly. Already, about half of Americans believe that aliens are visiting Earth!

A lot of lay people think aliens come from other planets in distant star systems, but the physicists who take the laws of our universe seriously say can NOT have come from OUR universe, because the problems of traveling such distances are insurmountable. Carl Sagan was part of a DoD study years ago that concluded extraterrestrial beings have and do visit Earth, but that their origin is not within our universe, but in some other dimension.

Psychiatrists who have made a serious study of alien encounters say the survivors are not mentally ill, yet show clear signs of PTSD. IOW, they definitely experienced something traumatic. Christian UFOlogists report that NOTHING but the Name of Jesus stops these often terrifying and unwanted visitations, but that it only works for people who walk the walk, not just talk the talk. IOW, demons, including the ones who masquerade as aliens, know who really belongs to Jesus.

In the videos below, a noted Catholic scholar examines the biblical and RCC teachings that show aliens not only do not exist, but that the beings that pose as aliens are really demons. For a rich non-Catholic Christian resource, go to http://www.alienresistance.org/.
