The Future of the United States of America.

This is the hidden meaning of The Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard...

"The Vineyard is ours!"

 

He is always vilified in the media.

 

The Spanish Civil War is almost unique in being one that the losers got to write the history. This is in complete contrast to the world war that followed it.

Despite Franco’s knowledge of Jewish conspiracy within his own country, his country was instrumental in saving more Jews during WWII than any other, apart from the Vatican.

An example of loving one’s enemy.

 

President Kennedy planned on doing away with the fed... how do we end it??
We know the enemy is within the gates, just like our beautiful Church, but what is the answer? People would have to be blind not to see what has been going on, so please don't assume that we don't know. Just because people, who have no life, no God, have gone insane, doesn't mean there are no sane people here. They show the craziness on the news, but not the good. They don't show the Rosary Rallies, prayer groups and people helping other people.
Clancy trial was such a distraction, then the juror who held out. It's a soap opera, bread and circuses and it works so well for some but not for anyone that I know of.
Prayer and sacrifice is the only answer but we won't find it in the news or fantastic stories.

 

This is Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, one of the most famous Russian writers, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1970. He spent eight years in the most terrible labor camps of the Gulag in Siberia because he criticized Stalin in a letter. He was also a deeply religious man and a devoted Christian.

I wholeheartedly recommend his books The Gulag Archipelago- If you want to know what life was like in the USSR and what kind of terror people experienced… and Two Hundred Years Together, about the relationship between Russians and Jews and their hatred for Russians. His wisdom shines through in every quotation.










Now, when you look at the West, murderers are being released, criminals are roaming the streets after committing numerous crimes, while people who pray, priests, believers, patriots, and those who defend the dignity of marriage and the family are being imprisoned.

 

There is def a battle going on in the US. But Trump has put a big halt to criminals going free. There is a push to do away with prisons and police, but that's not going to happen. We have
Eucharistic processions now through our towns, never saw that in my life until a couple years ago. I haven't seen any religious being imprisoned in the US. Maybe in Canada.
You won't hear much about this in the MSM . . .there is a little battle going on in my own small town between good and evil. It's really surfaced in the last six
months! Big time! But the conservatives are finally coming out strong, will see how it all shakes out. The dark side is becoming more enraged because of the
push back . . .

 

What an incredible man.

 

I was very enthusiastic about Donald Trump until he seemed to get captured by Netanyahu. He still has some great ideas, but his talk of a Gaza ‘Las Vegas’ and his invasion of Iran have been abominable and catastrophic respectively. I really pity the American people if the Democrats regain power, however. The latter fit perfectly Solzhenitsyn’s astute definition of communism.

 

I was surprised to learn Trump is 80 years old! can he remain active in politics for long enough?

 

This is the 2nd President in a row exhibiting cognitive problems. I'm firmly convinced that there should be no Presidential candidate that if elected sould be older than 70 years. This would prevent a sitting President from serving past the age of 78. It may not be perfect, but Biden and now Trump reflect poor judgment. I'd hate to think that "powers that be" pull the strings, and the mental state of any President matters little.

 

I feel very strongly that there should be a top age limit for any elected office. Perhaps the same as retirement age for social security. I don’t know any octogenarian capable mentally or physically of running a country.

 

Also, octogenarians have a quite limited stake in the future. This might not bode well for long-term planning.

 

Many of them are very wise, though, with so much life experience! My grandpa is in his early 80s and he would be an amazing president.

I'm not looking forward to the day when our oldest generation is all gone.

 

It is interesting that, in the case of the three popes who preceded Leo, advanced age does not seem to have impaired their cognitive abilities. They remained faithful to the doctrinal and pastoral direction they had established from the beginning of their pontificates until the very end.

In the case of John Paul II, there was also the additional aggravating factor of Parkinson’s disease, which can lead to dementia in some patients.

 

That would certainly be the case with a highly moral, selfless old man. But not so much with people who seem to be ageing grifters.

 

True, but you could say that for anyone... The problem with our leaders is not their age, but their lack of Faith and morality.

 

Evil old men are worse than evil young men.

 

De Gaulle, any thoughts on why Trump went to Ireland?

 

The Irish American vote in the mid term Elections.

Approximately 38.6 million Americans claim full or partial Irish ancestry, according to official U.S. Census Bureau data

He owns a golf course here in Doonbeg, County Clare and the Irish Open golf championship was played there. That’s the principle reason, I think.
And what Padraig says.
