‘The Scream’ Over France See this skull-shaped weather map that perfectly shows France's extreme heat The heat wave is racing across multiple countries, including France, Spain and Switzerland.

The heat wave is racing across multiple countries, including France, Spain and Switzerland, according to BBC News. Similarly, countries like Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic recorded their highest temperatures for June so far. Experts told BBC News that extreme temperatures in northern Africa led to the heat wave in Europe. And it won’t be slowing down. Meteorologists told BBC News that the temperatures will continue to climb throughout the week. A heat map of France has been making the rounds on social media because it looks like a deadly skull, according to Business Insider. The forecast map, which was specifically for Thursday's temperatures, shows the heat map for the recent wave of high temperatures. French meteorologist Ruben Hallalishared the photo on Twitter next to a picture of “The Scream” painting by Edvard Munch, which prompted a big social media reaction. The map was created by French website Meteociel, which creates various weather visualizations, Business Insider reports. Sylvain Dupont, a spokesperson for Meteociel, told CNN that the image wasn’t created that way on purpose and that the skull image appeared there by chance. "By chance, it just happened to be possible to imagine a special form of a skull in this map," he said, emphasizing the randomness of the apparition. "There are so many maps created on our site for each updated forecast that it is statistically possible for some to look like something." Still: Dupont said the photo is “remarkable” since it shows such high temperatures across all of France, which isn’t usually the case during this time of year. The map shows a high number of canicules — which “can be distinguished from ordinary heatwaves by their unrelenting intensity, with sweltering nights as well as days,” CNN reports — that don’t normally appear until mid-summer. https://www.deseretnews.com/article/900077303/france-heat-wave-extreme-summer-skull-face.html
Please pray in this instance..... French court orders severely disabled man be disconnected from food, water CNA).- The highest civil court in France has ordered that food and water may be removed from a severely disabled man, who has been artificially fed and hydrated in a hospital in the country for over 10 years. The Court of Cassation ruled Friday that Vincent Lambert, 42, can be taken off life support. This is the final ruling, and there can be no appeal, the BBC reported. This means Lambert’s parents have exhausted their legal options in their years-long fight to keep their son alive. However, the parents said Friday that they will press murder charges if Lambert is removed from food and hydration, according to AFP. A French court had ruled in favor of euthanizing Lambert last month. He had been briefly removed from feeding and hydration tubes May 20, when a challenge passed the Paris appeals court and the hospital was ordered to return the support. “In any other context, killing by starvation and dehydration is considered a crime against humanity,” said Alexandra Snyder, executive director of Life Legal, a group that advocates for the vulnerable, in a June 28 statement. “Yet in France-as in the United States-we routinely impose this type of torturous death on individuals who are disabled. This has to stop. Disability should not be a death sentence.” Euthanasia is illegal in France. However, a 2005 law allows physicians to refrain from using “disproportionate” treatments “with no other effect than maintaining life artificially.” Lambert, 42, has been a tetraplegic and severely disabled for more than 10 years, after he sustained severe head injuries in a traffic accident in 2008. Since then, Lambert has been at the center of a protracted court battle over whether to have his food and hydration removed. Lambert’s wife and six of his eight siblings have supported the removal of life support, while his parents have fought against it. Vatican officials last month condemned the removal of food and hydration from Lambert. In a joint statement May 21, Cardinal Kevin Farrell, prefect of the Dicastery for Laity, Family, and Life, and Archbishop Vincenzo Paglia, president of the Pontifical Academy for Life, said the interruption of food and hydration entail a “serious violation of the dignity of the person.” Lambert has been described by some medical professionals as being in a “vegetative state.” Farrell and Paglia stated that though this is a “serious pathological condition,” it does not in any way “compromise the dignity of the persons who are in this condition, nor their fundamental rights to life and care, understood as continuity of basic human assistance.” Food and water, they continued, are a form of essential care, and do not comprise “unreasonable therapeutic obstinacy.” The Catholic Church does not require the use of extraordinary means to preserve life, but considers the provision of food and hydration to be an ordinary standard of care. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/...led-man-be-disconnected-from-food-water-43585 “The suspension of [food and hydration] represents, rather, a form of abandonment of the patient, based on a merciless judgment on his quality of life, expression of a culture of waste that selects the most fragile and defenseless people, without recognizing their uniqueness and immense value,” Farrell and Paglia wrote. They also expressed the hope that an effective solution for preserving the life of Lambert can be found, and pledged the prayers of Pope Francis and the Church for that intention. In 2015, the European Court of Human Rights approved the removal of Lambert’s life support, arguing in a 12-5 decision, that the choice to stop his intravenous feeding did not violate European rights laws. A lower French court had previously ruled that Lambert should continue to receive food and hydration. In January 2014 a panel of nine judges in Chalons-en-Champagne said removing food and hydration is “a grave and clearly illegal attack on the fundamental right to life.” The panel added that Lambert is “neither sick nor at the end of his life.” Pope Francis addressed Lambert’s case during a Regina Coeli address in April 2018. He asked for prayers for people such as Lambert, “who live, at times for a long period, in a serious state of illness, medically assisted for their basic needs.” “Every offense or wound or violence against the body of our neighbor is an outrage to God the creator,” he said, adding that, “in the flesh of these people we find the flesh of Christ.” https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/...led-man-be-disconnected-from-food-water-43585
Three Million Brazilians Show Up to Massive 'March for Jesus' in São Paulo Some three million Christians turned out for an enormous “March for Jesus” in the Brazillian city of São Paulo last week. President Jair Bolsenaro was in attendance at the vast religious gathering, which was held to give people an opportunity to pray and worship the Lord in the public square. Every year, the March adopts a spiritual theme; this year, the theme was “The Rescuer,” based out of 1 Timothy 2:5-6, which reads: “For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time.” “These themes are a reference of what Christ represents for us,” the organizers noted in comments cited by Evangelical Focus. “He rescued us from the empire of darkness and carried us into His mighty light. It is for Him that we march.” The March’s president, Estevam Hernandes, kicked off proceedings outside a city centre metro station, by delivering a powerful public prayer. “We cry out for Brazil, for the families, for the end of corruption, for the afflicted hearts, our country belongs to Jesus Christ,” he bellowed over the sprawling crowds. “To Him all honor, glory, power and majesty. As it says in Psalms 33: ‘Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord.’” Praise and worship marathon After several hours, the colossal march meandered its way up to the Heroes of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force Square, but the day’s celebrations were far from over. Soon after the crowds had arrived, a huge stage, erected specially for the event, produced continuous praise and worship music for ten hours. Some 28 Brazillian gospel bands and singers, along with several evangelical pastors, led the patrons in passionate worship, with President Bolsonaro personally addressing the immense crowds. Brazil “is secular but its current leader is Christian,” the President declared, to rapturous applause. “You were decisive in helping change the destiny of Brazil. It is very good to be among friends. And even better when they are friends with God in their hearts.” Of Brazil’s 190 million citizens, some 30% define themselves as evangelicals. https://www.christianheadlines.com/...ion-brazilians-march-for-jesus-sao-paulo.html
I was shocked by the intensity of the feeling and I had no idea of it being a caldera. Just ignorant about it. I thought it was just geysers and buffalo but when we got there I had skin crawling dread and a need to get out NOW. My husband laughed and explained it was totally dead totally inactive. I thought to myself "no its not"
That is why it feels satanic....their hatred is so over the top...the desire to kill babies is so unnatural....to fight and scream and demand to kill innocent babies is nothing other than evil....and this evil is Satan’s sacrament. That why it is the worst evil.
I camped there for a week. Although I wouldn't say I felt an urgent dread I did have a really hard time sleeping there which is out of the ordinary for me. After a few days and seeing the enormity of the place and the geological activity there I admit I didn't want to stay. I was surprised at the amount of animals there. Enormous herds of Elk and bison. You would think that these animals would avoid an area like this but they don't. It really is like something out of Land of the Lost.
It is; but when you are dealing with truly wicked people and wickedness all the time you kind of wilt So much evil begins to seem the new normal. You become acclimatised to it so it begins to seem normal
I think this is form of loss of innocence, we are no longer shocked. It can't be helped, it is where we are at. But I think a dose of the salt of righteous anger at times does no harm. So much of the stuff these people propose is just totally obscene.
Suppose that's why the Lord said that unless the time is shortened not even the chosen would make it! No longer any of the usual material supports will be there to hold on to. Lots of messages today telling us to prepare by forming our inner spiritual selves w/ help from the the two Hearts.....our only life jackets ...... will take great, great Faith and Trust...."Jesus I Trust in You" but really mean it! Desperation can make faith real....as in fox holes, etc.
I have always loved being on my own with the Lord, as I am now, in Front of the BL Sacrament, at night in vigils and so. But if the present terrible Apostasy has taught me anything is that we are family and we do really need each other. Truly we are none of us an island.
I notice something so unusual lately. This is Ireland and the people tend to be very warm and friendly But recently when walking in very lonely and remote places when I greet someone they just sometimes don't answer or even stare at me with hostility. This is so unusual
I'll tell you another thing I noticed recently. At the two hospitals I worked at I was. adding up the people who are...well ...not firing on all four cylinders, who had serious problems in their personal lives, things like being a hypochondriac, fits of rage, being very antagonistic and on and was very surprised how many there were and are. Being without God is a true form of madness.
Padraig, I had this happen to me on the grounds of a shrine of all places. Initially some people said hello to me and my husband and we said hello back. Then later in the afternoon we said hello and smiled to at least two groups of people and they completely ignored us. It gave us an empty feeling, so sad.
Yes this is my feeling as well. There is so much evil we have become desensitized. Just going about my daily business I sense an air of hostility out there. Sadly it has become more common to have encounters with rude angry people, than those who are kind. When I leave my house I feel as though I always have to be on my guard. Honestly, in the past year or so I feel the need to call on my guardian angel more than ever before.
