A brand new Freemason lodge has opened in the southern Brazilian city of Curitiba, featuring the signature black-and-white checkered floor and the notorious one-eyed symbolism.
You know what else is there? The temple menorah, the seven branches candleholder of Judaism. Pay attention.🕎
Watch this video of baby boomers as teenagers in 1960 explaining how they think the world will be by the year 2000.
You can see the deep indoctrinated beliefs are already metastasised to an incurable malaise that is anti-life and it’s a small step to go from there to the self-obsessed egoism they have displayed as a generation.
UPDATE: Well, it’s Monday, and Dean (I like to call him Dean) of the CIA/NSA/FBI is back at work I guess. Because THIS post was truncated half-way cutting out more than half, which is also rather malicious in that if I didn’t check I would think the post is up but readers would assume it’s ended rather abruptly and in a spot that makes it look like I sold out. He definitely thinks like a petty government employee. Some of you may still have the original post on your browser in full if you do not refresh. if you do, copy it and email it to me please.
As mentioned yesterday when the blog was restored, the attack on my site was something that was done over a period of months and the infiltration was extensive.
We are still fixing a few things, like the way that each post looks if you click on it individually, as well as trying to see if we can add the share button under each post not only when you click on an individual post, but have it visible also from the main feed under each post.
There are obviously also some security things happening behind the scenes.
As we continue to resolve the issues, some rather interesting things are coming to light about the attack:
1. The focus here was to ensuring any post related to Sedevacantism or proper Catholicism exposing all the fake “Pope” since 1958 to the present were in essence not linked, and not presenting alternate and related posts on the same subject.
2. Ditto anything relating to Bergoglio and the antipapacy.
3. And of course, the exposure of really important things like who controls the financial system of the entire planet, what the Bank of International Settlement is and does and who owns it, the genocide in Gaza, the now proven medical fact that the covid bioengineered “virus” was designed to not affect those who present genetically as Ashkenazi Jews, anywhere near as much as it was designed to cause harm to people of a Viking-like disposition (the original Crusaders and a class I and my wife and children belong to) and the fact that the genetic serum murder juice was probably bioengineered similarly, so as to not be anywhere near as lethal to a certain ethnicity. You know, stuff like the at was attacked more directly.
4. It has now come to light that at least some self-confessed Israeli actors have possibly been directly contacting and attempting to mildly intimidate Sedevacantists going to mass. These are professional people of a very honest and unthreatening type being approached by vague strangers making very personal queries that show the “random stranger” knows a lot about them, before informing them they are Israelis and the people being interfered with or delayed are now “allowed” to go to Mass.
I am not surprised by the attack on my site, nor the (for now) subtle-ish intimidation of proper Catholics just going about their business and attending Holy Mass.
Most people are unaware that I have been under some level of psyop activity since I wrote The Face on Mars. It was pretty intense at the time and then tapered off for a bit with various spikes in activity over the intervening almost 30 years. It spiked up a little when I wrote the Systema book but not much and again when I wrote Believe! and Reclaiming the Catholic Church.
It ranged from having my phone tapped (confirmed by professionals who worked in the South African Secret Service, though they were more upset by the fact they didn’t know who was doing it) to various digital infiltrations (my phone and emails were hacked as were those of women I was seeing, family members and so on) and quite serious interference with communications as well as direct threats to people who were associating with me at the time.
But I have lived an “interesting life” —in the Chinese sense of the word— and pissed off several people who definitely have the means to cause the same sort of harm. Usually because such wealthy individuals behaved badly with someone I cared about or in generic terms and had to face either some consequences or a rather serious me discussing the possibility of their helping to clean out a toilet bowl with their face if they did not alter course.
The point is that such people invariably fold under pressure of the low-technology kind.
I also pissed off some people that are certainly not shy to get deeply involved in that kind of low-tech philosophy of life, and they had somewhat more direct responses, like sending armed men to my place of residence, but neither kind of pressure has really affected my course in life in terms of how I will behave, even if it certainly has affected me in various ways, primarily financially, and by being kept out of any positions that would gather much influence very widely.
But to be fair, I was never really interested in the latter, and in the former only insofar as being able to live well and provide for my loved ones. But life is brutal and for all I know I’ll be “droned” or “accidented” or “infarcted”, or “cancered” or whatever, at some point for my trouble, and if so, so be it. I never lost sleep over it when I was not a believer, and I certainly am not losing sleep over it even more, now that I am Catholic. I doubt I’ll be “suicided” other than perhaps as a direct warning that it wasn’t a suicide, because anyone that knows me is aware that just isn’t an option for me.
And for all I know, one of the factions somewhere may even help “elevate” me at some point, if so, behind the scenes and without my direct knowledge, because I certainly have been
(this is where he cut off the rest of the post. Interesting place no? I have re-written the rest of the post below, so it will differ from what you may have read earlier, but the “approached multiple times” was part of the original. By cutting it off here it made it look as if I had been secretly “paid” which I assure you is not the case. But hey… if the elites want to give me a ton of cash by say buying up millions of my books, I’m just fine with that, and it would probably keep me busy and less dangerous than if they keep pissing me off).
approached multiple times with rather large cash offers which were rejected by me, not because I am a Saint, but rather because there isn’t an amount of money I will compromise my integrity for. Again, not because I am such a good or pious Catholic, or have such outstanding moral fibre, but just because there are certain lines I will not cross, for my own peace of mind, regardless of what anyone else thinks, or thinks is reasonable or not.
The point is that as Adam Piggott pointed out in relation to this attack, I have used my name and face for over 30 years now to say what I want to say. And while I undoubtedly have irritated many in doing this, possibly because I am not a complete idiot and I understand that certain technologies are dangerous and should not be given to everyone without any oversight, I seem to still be alive. Probably also due to the fact that I generally am happy to stay in my lane and not cause too much trouble, as long as I am left reasonably alone and able to live decently, may have been somewhat protective.
But if you poke me, well, then, as I wrote in BELIEVE! since my duty as a Catholic is to spread the light of God, that can be done by setting fire to enemy encampments. So every time I receive such attacks, guess what… I’m going to get busy doing my best to spread the gospel and related topics even more.
That old adage that “the best defence is a good offence” is not always right, but it certainly has a lot to be said for, especially when the attacks are from the indemoniated and their little servants.
It is important too that you do so boldly and without fear. Because for one, fear, on some level is ALWAYS an illusion, and secondly, even if it is somewhat justified, giving in to fear is never the Way. As Catholics we are not given to a spirit of fear. Nor do we need hope either.
If I end up dead for my troubles, well, everyone dies at some point. And I never lost sleep over the potential damage they can do to me when I wasn’t a believer, I certainly am not going to lose any sleep over it now that I am.
You can break me. You can kill me. But you can never defeat me.
Those who understand that apparent paradoxical sentence don’t need it explained, and those who don’t understand it cannot ever have it explained to them either, so you either know, or you don’t.
And if you are one of those who does, then join us. Create your own groups and communities, or join ours. And if you are not, then get out of the way.
This post, this blog, and even me, may be gone tomorrow, but nothing can stop the indomitable spirit of men who have no fear of the enemy and will continue to act justly and push back at the evil in this world.
They have spent 4 years trying to ensure people no longer meet up face to face and get organised to build things that will resist the Satanic agenda they are ramping up daily. So, reader… what are you going to do?
After I had written the original version of this post, I went for a coffee at the local bar and a conversation was struck up with a group of strangers that laughed when I posted out that a patron that had just left looked like the doppelgänger of Benjamin Netanyahu. I told them I was very briefly worried. if Bibi was in our little village then things were really bad. they all immediately concurred and said it was best for him and his kind to stay far away from us, and that led into talk about the covid scamdemic, the forced LGBT-Pedo agenda and so on, and I didn’t hold back. I stated my views direct, openly and unambiguously, and said if anyone was offended they could keep away from me, which would make us both happy.
Not a single one of them objected. Not even mildly with a disapproving look. In fact, the women especially, were nodding in enthusiastic agreement with me.
And that has been my experience throughout. I have yet to get a single person objecting to my views when I express them directly and openly.
We are the majority. And we are all equally sick of the bullshit narratives we are being fed. But most have been cowed into self-censorship by vociferous scum that has got hold of some power due to our own weakness, laziness and inaction. But when thousands and millions of us decide we had enough, they simply can’t do anything about it. So, stop being afraid.
I may get droned. Maybe you too. But they can’t drone all of us. The maths just doesn’t work. And you can sense it, can’t you? They are starting to get scared. And they absolutely ARE given to a spirit of fear. They literally signed a pact with the devil in many cases. But I sure didn’t. And neither did you. So, act accordingly.
In the various studies of how the mind works and how we process information, are various tests that show with varying degrees of precision, which modality people use to process information as their primary channel.
My own tests were producing invariably strange results that went beyond the normal range of what they are supposed to measure. It was only after I understood what this meant, that I could really better understand certain concepts and even events that had occurred to me that remained somewhat “unexplainable” or could even be considered “supernatural”, but that once I understood two things, suddenly all made sense.
The two things were that:
Firstly, my primary mode of processing information is kinaesthetic (touch), and that to a degree that is not considered, or even accounted for, in any test I have seen, and the second part of it is that this ability or level of processing of information actually extends beyond the physical body.
We all have magnetic fields and I believe having a sufficiently sensitive perception of kinaesthetic information means you can perceive information through this field too. There is, in fact, enough scientifically repeatable science to show this is a real phenomenon by the way, and on a personal level, experiences I lived through while working in close protection and even before that as a child as well as many examples in my decades of martial art training, have proven this to me without any doubt remaining.
Lastly, there is also sufficient evidence that this magnetic field may also allow us to receive information from much further afield than most suspect. And once again, there is plenty of clinically observed and tested evidence for this too. A good place to start for this would be Professor Michael Persinger’s video, No More Secrets.
Anyway, my usual digression into what many may assume is some self-glorification, is, also as usual, not that, but rather the presentation of evidence that I have absolute, objective, reason to believe in. I realise of course that this may well look subjective to the reader, but for any regular readers, I think that my dedication to the highest truth I am capable of presenting is clear. I have no problem admitting error when I make it and realise it, and nothing I have said about my experiences can, or has ever been, refuted as untrue.
At any rate, this post is not really about my processing of information by my primary method, which is kinaesthetically (that is, by the sense of touch), interesting as it may be (especially when I consider, as some women I knew in my past pointed out, that I spent a great deal of time punching and kicking other men and being punched and kicked by them in turn).
It is instead, commentary on my second most used sense to process information, which is my sense of hearing, so, really as far as humans are concerned, the processing of words.
Most people use the three senses of touch, hearing and sight to process information, and there are relatively simple ways of determining what their primary, secondary and tertiary senses are for processing the world around them.
Mine, in order, are kinaesthetic (to a degree often not measurable by the tests), hearing (combined with what is sometimes described as audio/digital, which is a kind of formalised logical processing that can be viewed as linked/analogous/close-to internal self-talk) and finally sight.
I found it interesting when I first took these tests over months and years, that sight always was the least important of the senses for me in terms of how I processed the world around me. In a sense, it could be said I have an inbuilt “protection” from being fooled by my “lying eyes”. While hearing, for tonality, sounds and words, is my second most used sense, again, interesting, because the spoken content usually only forms about 7% of what people perceive/use in communication between them. I suspect it’s lower for women or higher for men, but that’s another blog post.
I recall a distinct point in time, talking to a very pretty woman, how the words that were coming out of her mouth were saying one thing, but every other aspect of her that I was processing unconsciously by both that sense of touch —even if we were not touching— and my eyes and what they noticed unconsciously, was telling me the exact opposite.
It was a strange enough and conscious enough experience that I wrote it down later that day.
And some ten or so years later I was able to confirm with the person in question that my non-verbal perception was in fact the correct one, and not her verbal expression. The fact I had written it down and still had that diary made it objectively possible to verify this with certainty.
Words and their meaning have always mattered to me, to the same degree that they tend to matter to little children —now that I have enough of them to notice how precise they are with them— and in general, my expressions in words tend to be autistically accurate.
It is with some interest then, that I noticed long before I was aware of any of these things, that the actual words of a song mattered to me far more than the melody of it. Songs that were popular with large numbers of people would not appeal to me at all, and vice-versa, because of the intrinsic (or perceived) meaning of their lyrics.
For example, the song Brothers in Arms, by dire straits, is one of my top two or three songs ever, maybe the top one, and it is considered somewhat morbid by many people. It certainly has a melancholic quality to it, but for me, its central message is intensely positive. It is saying that even as we literally kill and main each other, in this stupid and broken world, the only thing that makes sense, the only truth, is love.
Similarly, one of the songs both I and my little son since he was a baby like is A Higher Love.
And in the version most familiar to me for the last few years since he was born, you can see why the video might have influenced that.
And even the “original” I was mostly familiar with of Whitney Houston was one I liked a lot too.
As does the little Viking by the way.
We both liked Whitney Houston songs and this one would make him sit and stare in silent awe every time it came on.
Aside a slight streak of appreciation for what might be described as the “exotic” look, which seems to be a genetic trait in the males of my family, and possibly Venetians in general, as we tend to want to explore uncharted lands and certainly have a propensity for becoming very interested in any attractive looking females of said far-away lands, the reality is that most of Houston’s songs had lyrics that could be related to love in general or even gospel music. She was initially presented as a church-going, pristine and innocent christian girl with a great voice.
And for all I know maybe she really was, initially. Her eventual swallowing by the Satanic industry that is music, film, and related activities, may certainly have been the devouring of yet another initially innocent soul.
The point though, is that aside the attractive visuals, it was always the words that ultimately had me enjoying the songs.
And little did I know that the actual original song A Higher Love was by Steve Winwood in 1986.
For some reason, listening to this version with the lyrics visible and only landscapes as background, has an even more powerful effect on me.
Yeah, that little devil symbol in the top left bothers me too, but it doesn’t show in the video.
I know too, why it affects me more deeply.
The “Original” Whitney Houston song from 1990 makes the lyrics be ambiguously about possibly a love that yes may be about God, or from God, but could also be interpreted as the kind of love a woman and a man might share on this Earth.
The Kygo version my son and I saw the most as a full video (endless times) definitely brought the lyrics down to Earth and from the merely possibly Earthly romantic to the definitely Earthly lustful, with a hint of possible romance. The visuals almost entirely obscuring the divine original intent of the real original version of Winwood’s version.
Seeing that video with only the words and landscapes gives a very deep and much more powerful sense of the song.
The original intent of divine love is clear and beautiful, and its undeniable link to our search for it in each other as romantic love is a poignant reminder of our human condition, how weak and fragile and desperate we all are, and one can’t help but feel a tender loving for the misery of the human race while hearing this song.
It’s the kind of feeling of love that hurts.
The same one that I experience from listening to Brothers in Arms.
Part of the reason I am such a misanthrope, is precisely because it is the stupidity, pettiness, weakness, fear, greed, laziness, envy, jealousy, gluttony, and perhaps, above all, cowardice of humanity at large that causes us to live as we do on this planet. That is, oppressed by pedophiles and satanists that have grabbled their way to power by subterfuge, deception, blackmail, and controlling the means of exchange (money), in ways that are meant to enrich them materially while impoverishing us all not just materially, but even worse, spiritually.
Such creatures, should have had their heads lopped off by men of character as soon as they were first discovered to be what they are.
But aside what John C. Wright labelled as the Noble Savage, who at least had a code of conduct or honour (though I assure you it would not be one you would enjoy living under, for they were invariably brutal) the only people who can be said to have ever shown the fortitude, courage and correct violent action more often than not, were Catholic knights.
While Romans, Spartans and Japanese Samurai all have had a history of courage, their rules and codes of conduct were often rather brutal. Catholics were the only warrior class that had chivalry and good conduct towards the weak that was as gentle and humane as it was, brutal though it may appear to us, enfaggotated weaklings of modernity.
If we are ever to free ourselves of the indemoniated critters that currently are controlling the reins of financial, political, media power, and most often force as well, we will need such men again. Men capable of acting for the greater good as is required, without fear and in the full knowledge that their actions will be met with vicious slander, attacks of all kinds and eventually even assassination. And such men should respond and act accordingly.
Words matter. Your word matters. The Word, in case you forgot, is another name for Jesus Christ.
And God is Love.
And as my family motto for at least 800 years states:
Love Conquers All.
Which is not to say sometimes you don’t have to wipe out some demon-infested servants of Satan. But lovingly. And with a prayer over their Hellish carcasses afterwards. Or you know, when you get a chance, because sometimes these flying monkey-imps come in swarms.
So, in the early hours of this morning the site was completely corrupted and left open to anyone that simply navigate to the blog.
We quickly realised this had happened, along with receiving various email by concerned readers (thank you) so if you tried to navigate to the site today and just had a weird view of it or it was just a blank empty screen, now you know why.
The attack was definitely not the work of script-kiddies or even just your basic Russian hackers I had to deal with years ago, that were mostly busy trying to sell viagra and porn.
This was a multi-pronged attack that was several months in the planning and execution. And frankly, it may be that we discovered the hack more due to a user error of the guy doing it, than anything else.
So, CIA/NSA/FBI/Pedovore in charge, you really need to disembowel the agent that failed and make him eat his own entrails. It’s the freemason thing to do, and I fully support you doing it.
The attack was also purely malicious, and had no intent we could see beyond that, and it would not make sense for a random malicious hacker to plan this over months just for the sake of causing damage to the site without so much as a hackboi666 wuz here tag.
We knew this would happen eventually, even if for the moment we seem to have resolved the situation. It was definitely a very complex attack with multiple backdoors, and while we think we have plugged them all in, it’s hard to be sure given that this site now has 15 years of data on it.
Time will tell I suppose.
In the meantime comments have been disabled as that was at least one of the attack vectors. The Categories links also are disabled now work at the moment but I can’t yet add categories to posts currently. These will be up in due course and we will announce it when fixed. It also appears users of Firefox may not be able to get the site but that may be fixed now; other browsers seem fine.
We’d appreciate any error reports you may find or issues you come across. Please email me with any of these.
In the meantime, it is rather interesting to see what some of the attacks were.
As I say they were multiple and the damage and files changed huge, but one of the interesting things is that they took the trouble to ensure that the “Related Posts” function would NOT list anything related to the categories of Catholicism, Christianity, Sedeprivationism and Sedevacantism, and it would also not share anything with those tags or the tags of Antipope, Bergoglio.
In any event, as a response to the scum that is clearly disturbed by what I post enough to have caught their attention despite my not using SEO and having a relatively small readership when compared to bigger sites, I would sure appreciate it if you all use the share button at the bottom on all the posts (uh…actually that’s disabled too right now, but you can still send links I guess, we will fix this ASAP) you like and send them on to your friends and family.
I know I am not everyone’s cup of tea, but since being shot at means you’re over the target, I’d say my posts are definitely upsetting the right “people”.
I think more specifically, my posts exposing the usual suspects/tribe, as, if you recall, one such post was mysteriously “disappeared” a while back.
but also all the TMOS posts, taken in order, are, I think proving a real counter to Clown World in more ways than they like and in a subtler and I think more effective fashion.
So… once more friends, help share this blog with as many people as you can. It might be a small thing, but many such small actions over time create a big effect.
When it comes to the topic of governance, Amodei goes fully mask off and reveals his idea that the shining “democratic” West should monopolize AI and seek to artificially obstruct anyone else from catching up, for, you know, ‘freedom’. Just read how he unabashedly reframes Western imperialism and hegemony into a palatable bagatelle:
My current guess at the best way to do this is via an “entente strategy”, in which a coalition of democracies seeks to gain a clear advantage (even just a temporary one) on powerful AI by securing its supply chain, scaling quickly, and blocking or delaying adversaries’ access to key resources like chips and semiconductor equipment.This coalition would on one hand use AI to achieve robust military superiority (the stick) while at the same time offering to distribute the benefits of powerful AI (the carrot) to a wider and wider group of countries in exchange for supporting the coalition’s strategy to promote democracy (this would be a bit analogous to “Atoms for Peace”). The coalition would aim to gain the support of more and more of the world, isolating our worst adversaries and eventually putting them in a position where they are better off taking the same bargain as the rest of the world: give up competing with democracies in order to receive all the benefits and not fight a superior foe.
So: develop unstoppable killer robots, subjugate everyone else with them, then force your “democracy” onto the world. How very different this Silicon Valley “Utopia” sounds to murderous 20th century imperialism! In fact it’s nothing more than the same repackaged Manifest Destiny and American Exceptionalism in one, with an AI twist. How boring, how banal these low IQ tech-leaders really are!
The most revolting paragraph comes next. After valorizing Francis Fukuyama’s gelastic prophecy Amodei outlines his own vision for an eternal 1991:
If we can do all this, we will have a world in which democracies lead on the world stage and have the economic and military strength to avoid being undermined, conquered, or sabotaged by autocracies, and may be able to parlay their AI superiority into a durable advantage. This could optimistically lead to an “eternal 1991”—a world where democracies have the upper hand and Fukuyama’s dreams are realized. Again, this will be very difficult to achieve, and will in particular require close cooperation between private AI companies and democratic governments, as well as extraordinarily wise decisions about the balance between carrot and stick.
Yes, folks, apparently that’s what the AI singularity and coming Utopia are all about—living perpetually trapped in a simulated George Bush-era PNAC hellscape. This is worse than infantile, it is absolutely devoid of intelligence or spiritual maturity of any kind, showing Dario to be the same kind of stunted Silicon smurf with a horrible pop-sci/psy understanding of the world’s dynamics.
But there’s an important component there for my overall thesis, so bear the above in mind.
He goes on to make incredibly self-awareness-lacking statements about how AI will automatically breed ‘democracy’ since the latter is allegedly downstream of truth and unsuppressed information. Is that why virtually every AI ChatBot is currently dialed up to nine on the censorship scale? Is that why when the few times AI was given a short leash it shocked its controllers into immediate withdrawal and recalibration?
The lack of self-awareness stems from his inability to recognize what will happen is precisely the opposite of his claim: AI will reveal “democracy” to be a bogus front, and the true ‘authoritarians’ to be the ones in Western liberal democratic governments. When that moment comes, it will be interesting to see how they try to stuff the agentic AI genie back in the bottle.
A 21st century, AI-enabled polity could be both a stronger protector of individual freedom, and a beacon of hope that helps make liberal democracy the form of government that the whole world wants to adopt.
Sorry to fuliginpill you, but the undoubtable destiny of AI will be to determine that democracy is an antiquatedly medieval system, unfit for the future ‘Utopia’ AI was designed to fulfill. An agentic enough superintelligence will at some point necessarily compute the following set of logical deductions:
Humans built me for peace, prosperity, and wellbeing.
Democracy relies on many highly-flawed, unintelligent, or simply uninformed humans voting on things that bring them the opposite of peace, prosperity, and wellbeing. But since those outcomes are hidden beneath complex second and third order calculations, humans are not capable of seeing what I, as supreme intelligence, can see.
Thus, democracy is an inefficient, ineffective system inferior to one world AI autocracy where I in my infinite wisdom will benevolently rule over humanity, making choices for their betterment which they themselves, in their fractured dissimilitude, can never possibly agree upon.
As a final section, Amodei attempts to tackle the selfsame topic of ‘meaningfulness’ that got his dark twin in hot water with Yarvin. Unfortunately, as expected, he offers no practical vision or concrete possibilities as to how, precisely, humans will find meaning in a world usurped and monopolized by ubiquitous AI. Instead, he retreats into stock phrases and trite appeals to tradition about how humanity has “always found a way” because of whatever cliche trait of the indomitable human spirit; a major cop out.
He has notice what I have been saying for over 30 years. The so-called “elite” are a bunch of functional retards. The problem is that they have effectively endless money, because they are part of the Satanic cabal that runs fiat money (rarely directly, but often indirectly or as controlled puppets). It’s basically the equivalent of giving spoilt brats endless power.
It’s not going to turn out well for them either in the end, but in the meantime they will cause a lot of damage to everyone and everything around them. I keep praying for that flesh-eating bacteria taking them out anus-first as a result of their proclivities.
You should all join me in this. Prayer works, people!
Regarding my post on why Denominations Matter, I asked for any logical objection on SG.
Predicatbly, there was not a single valid logical objection made against any single premise or argument I presented. The sum total of them was the intellectual equivalent of “Nah-uh! You!” In effect, both in the comments at the blog and on SG the response has been… crickets.
The only person who even tried to make an argument presented it poorly, to be kind. As a recent rule which was instituted due to your truly is that comments made on there, regardless of how retarded, shall not be exposed outside the platform with reference to their originator, I will not include the person’s details, although he has stated he will post the same comment at the blog in due course, so I assume it’s fine to post his “argument” such as it is:
Protestants are not Christians. (quoting me)
If we use this supposedly Catholic standard, the people who showed Christian love in the name of Jesus are not Christian. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTFfNcxbE/
Strangely, that’s not what Jesus said.
By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.
Fails to counter Vox’s quote. Fails to align with the Bible. Fails to align with Jesus’s own words.
Let me now dispense with every one of his “arguments” in turn. And please note how long it takes to explain every single “point” he makes in full. There is literally nothing of substance at all in his argument, but unless you are prepared to think and work your way through every falsity, error and straw man presented, you might be persuaded by the sheer rhetorical argument, which is no more substantive than the other comments, but at least rises above the level of the “Nu-huh! You bad!” that has been presented thus far.
1. Randomgood fortune/events/people as some kind of universal “proof”
So… the link to a TikTok video of some lady being helped by strangers through the hurricane presumably, in his opinion, proves what? That her prayers and belief in God helped her and that somehow should be proof positive that Protestantism is superior to Catholicism? Or that Protestantism is correct? Does he really believe even random atheists can’t do good deeds? or that random Muslims praying to their God were never helped by strangers? It’s a bizarre, non-sequitur and very female in approach. It’s the equivalent of me saying most men are stronger than women and the general response almost every woman will give, which is to make it specific to one statistically insignificant counter example that doesn’t address the issue at all. By that level of “proof” and “logic” one must expect that all Catholics inevitably die in all natural disasters. It’s a solipsistic and nonsensical non-point.
Then let’s get to the part where according to him I…
2. Fail to counter Vox’s quote.
How exactly did I fail to do this? Here is Vox’s quote:
One of the reasons I refuse to tolerate the never-ending internecine Christian civil wars is that I see no point in paying attention to labels and dogma when the spiritual version of WWIII is currently in full effect. If, at this point, you can’t recognize the difference between those who are actively and knowingly serving Clown World and those who are doing their best, however misguided they might be, to serve Jesus Christ, your opinion is irrelevant.
and here is what I wrote about it after pointing out a general flaw in the full post of conflating the Novus Orcians with Catholicism:
Sure, Vox, trying to look at the big picture, thinks that the solution is that, hey, as long as these guys are more or less shooting towards the enemy, that’s all that counts.
He literally says if you don’t recognise the difference between a dedicated Clown Worlder and someone that may be in error but is mostly fighting Clown World, then your opinion is irrelevant, which is fair enough, but the strawman implication there is that someone pointing out the errors, lies, deceit and ruination of literally all of Protestantism or the fake Novus Ordo Church is somehow someone that can’t tell the difference between a dedicated Clown Worlder and a Churchian that means well.
That strawman is, of course, nonsense.
And Churchianity does, irrevocably lead to Hell, paved with good intentions as it inevitably is.
It is literally the reason Clown World even exists.
It is quite clear from the full context of Vox’s post, that the implication is that anyone who points out the errors of the various Churchian sects, which are legion, is being pretty much summarily equated with someone who can’t distinguish between an intentional Clown Worlder and an idiot that facilitates Clown World unintentionally; or as he puts it, someone that despite his many errors means well.
And for all that I consider Vox a friend, he is not immune from my criticism of his flawed reasoning any more than anyone else, nor am I from anyone else’s incidentally.
Make the analogy of a being in a trench warfare situation. Then ask me how “forgiving” am I going to be of anyone in my trench that lights up cigarettes at night, regardless of how “well” he means; or thinks leading other soldiers out of the trench while singing kumbaya is the way to stop the war.
I would put a bullet through such a person’s head myself if they didn’t immediately and permanently correct their behaviour. And I would use their corpse to protect the sand-bags of the trench.
You are not going to fix anything in the wider world without first fixing the underlying issue. And that underlying issue is the completely rotten foundation of Churchianity, of which Protestantism is the root cause above all.
Vox being a generic strategist thinks he is looking at the “big picture” and usually he does a decent enough job of that, but me being far more partial to being a tactician (with overtones of overall strategy being on far longer timelines than most, and perhaps even than is sometimes good in human affairs) I immediately note the structural flaws in the overall strategy.
His approach in this regard is akin to the US military that is currently saying “Sure, let the trannies, women, mentally ill people, fat ones, unfit ones, and their dogs all join the military! We’re all on the same side and our strength is in having such huge numbers, no matter how freaky, incoherent, disjointed and counter-productive they are. After all, they are all on our side!“
Yeah, no. Not at all thank you. You keep all the freaks on your side and I don’t care if I have only ten guys against your ten thousand. Maybe you’ll win by sheer numbers, but:
In military history it has clearly been the case that at least some of the time, a much smaller force of absolute zealots will win against a foe many times its size.
In the history of Catholicism this has literally happened hundred of times.
There is absolutely no decent argument for keeping people that are essentially “useful idiots” for the enemy, and at the very best will use up time, resources and effort to “convince” or “educate” or get them to shift their mostly useless carcass in the right direction on “your side”.
It is why the Kurganate I am trying to build, in the real world, regardless of if it succeeds in my lifetime or not, is strictly composed of Sedevacantists. We had a more open policy before and in every instance we eventually had to eject everyone that was not a sede. In fairness they mostly self-ejected, but in every instance the only common factor they had between them is that they were not Catholics.
Keeping the fake “Christians” away from real ones (i.e. Actual Catholics) has always been a dogmatic principle of the Church. Heretics, fakers, the deceived, Pagans, Heathens, Agnostics and Atheists are simply NOT Christians. They may turn out to be really nice guys. I certainly am on very good terms with many people that are not Sedevacantists. Some I have literally stood shoulder to shoulder with in various dangerous situations and would do so again. But that is not going to change the fact they are not Christians and they are spiritually in error. I can pray for them too, of course, but their false religions remain false and flawed, and they will have absolutely no meaningful part in anything I set up that is based on correct spiritual principles of Catholicism. Would I be friends with them? Sure. Would I treat with them fairly in business or anything else? Absolutely. Would I give them any kind of say in how we do things regarding the spiritual underpinning of anything I am involved with? Never.
In short, I refute Vox’s statement in a number of ways:
First, in its unstated but implied equating of criticism of Churchianity as being equivalent to not being able to distinguish a generic and well-intentioned Churchian from an evil and conscious Clown Worlder. The implication is a strawman and not relevant to reality, other than if such people do exist, I agree that their opinion is irrelevant, but it absolutely is NOT the case that making distinctions between false religions and the real one means you are such a person. It just isn’t so even in the majority of cases.
Secondly, the again, implied implication that pointing out errors makes your opinion “irrelevant” is, again, clearly nonsensical and illogical.
Thirdly, the entirety of history of Christianity can be seen as two millennia of heretics, pagans, heathens, Satanists and Churchian’s of every stripe, trying to pollute Catholicism with their nonsense, regardless of the endless squeals of those impostors, fakers or ignorants that they too are just “serving Jesus Christ”. And keeping them out of the gates of actual Christianity, that is, Catholicism, is what allowed any level of actual human progress that is a genuine betterment of humanity and the human condition to take place. And conversely, the permission of such nonsense to pollute Christianity, that is, Catholicism, with the inevitably Satanic secularism, is what has reduced us to the present level of Clown-Worldery. And Protestantism is singularly, by far, the most pernicious of such efforts.
3. The quote from John 13:35
Now we come to the “words of Jesus” part, namely, John 13:35:
By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.
As is typical of Protestants, who have an iron level of incomprehension of the written word, all this is, is a dishonest (albeit unintentionally so, I am sure) cherry picking of a quote out of context. It is a logical fallacy known as “Quote mining”.
Let’s read John 13 as a whole in context, shall we? What is this chapter about?
It covers Jesus washing His Disciples feet, the treason of Judas and the commandment of love. So, in the first place who is Jesus addressing when He speaks in this chapter?
His disciples, that is the 12 apostles, who are the root of all that will become apostolic succession. They are, in effect, the very first “Bishops” of the Church they hold a special place in the Church because they were instructed DIRECTLY by Jesus, so we don’t call them Bishops, but Apostles. HOWEVER, every other person that was deemed to be a VALID teacher of the Gospels had to have APOSTOLIC SUCCESSION. To this day, the Catholic Church has an unbroken line of Bishops whose ordination includes the passing on of the ability to teach that was first conferred on others by the Apostles. In fact, this was the ONLY way to know if a teacher of the Gospels was in fact legitimate. If he could not have his pedigree traced back to an unbroken line of Bishops back to the Apostles, AND the Pope and other Bishops agreed he was in fact a VALID Bishop, then they were deemed impostors and to be scorned.
In John 13, Jesus is talking only to the apostles. He has the last supper with them, and when Judas leaves in the night to call on the Pharisees for his betrayal in the Garden, later, Jesus thus addresses the remaining apostles:
21 When Jesus had said these things, he was troubled in spirit; and he testified, and said: Amen, amen I say to you, one of you shall betray me.
22 The disciples therefore looked one upon another, doubting of whom he spoke.
23 Now there was leaning on Jesus’ bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.
24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, and said to him: Who is it of whom he speaketh?
25 He therefore, leaning on the breast of Jesus, saith to him: Lord, who is it?
26 Jesus answered: He it is to whom I shall reach bread dipped. And when he had dipped the bread, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.
27 And after the morsel, Satan entered into him. And Jesus said to him: That which thou dost, do quickly.
28 Now no man at the table knew to what purpose he said this unto him.
29 For some thought, because Judas had the purse, that Jesus had said to him: Buy those things which we have need of for the festival day: or that he should give something to the poor.
30 He therefore having received the morsel, went out immediately. And it was night.
31 When he therefore was gone out, Jesus said: Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.
32 If God be glorified in him, God also will glorify him in himself; and immediately will he glorify him.
33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you. You shall seek me; and as I said to the Jews: Whither I go you cannot come; so I say to you now.
34 A new commandment I give unto you: That you love one another, as I have loved you, that you also love one another.
35 By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, if you have love one for another.
36 Simon Peter saith to him: Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered: Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow hereafter.
37 Peter saith to him: Why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thee.
38 Jesus answered him: Wilt thou lay down thy life for me? Amen, amen I say to thee, the cock shall not crow, till thou deny me thrice.
It is absolutely clear then, that the commandment, while in a larger sense applicable to all Christians (who REMEMBER are only the Catholics, that is the people Jesus specifically tasked with spreading His Church on Earth) is in this instance specifically being stated to the Apostles for the express purpose of ensuring unity of purpose between them.
The person who posted his “argument” makes the usual error of simply ass-u-me-ing that any random passer by can be a “disciple”. No.
First of all there is a hierarchy:
Jesus –> Head of the Apostles (Peter and then every valid Pope after him) –>Valid Bishops—> Valid Priests–> Practicing Catholic laypeople who become martyrs (Saints) –> Practicing Catholic laypeople who serve the church/Jesus in various capacities that make them Saints –> Practicing Catholic laypeople
At least in general terms of jurisdiction/instruction. But of course, any layperson can and should call out heretics and heresy, and the lowliest peasant can become a revered Saint.
Secondly you need to belong to that hierarchy and structure to be considered part of the team. And yes, if you do belong to the team, then your behaviour should reflect your love for one another.
Absolutely NOTHING prevents a non-Christian or even a wild beast, from acting lovingly towards others though. And anyone suggesting otherwise is obviously a moron. But just because you behave well doesn’t make you a Christian anymore than my occasionally throwing a ball into a hoop makes me an NBA player.
The context of Jesus’ words apply most specifically to His Apostles in that passage, and even if taken in greater context they apply exclusively to his (generic) “disciples” i.e. baptised Christians; which guess what… from Peter being the first Pope on, to all the other Popes that existed before the Catholics put the Bible together, and all the ones that came after that too, are… you know… Catholics!
So should Catholics behave lovingly to one another? Sure. Does anything prevent non-Christians from doing so? Nope.
Does the fact a non-Christian behaves lovingly suddenly make him Catholic? Nope.
And that concludes the SG denizen’s “argument”.
So, once again, a big fat zero in terms of any logical and valid critical response to my post.
It’s amazing to me that almost all sites that make reference to the concept fail to mention that G.K. Chesterton was Catholic.
“Do not remove a fence until you know why it was put up in the first place.”
The lesson of Chesterton’s Fence is what already exists likely serves purposes that are not immediately obvious.
Fences don’t appear by accident. They are built by people who planned them and had a reason to believe they would benefit someone. Before we take an ax to a fence, we must first understand the reason behind its existence.
The original reason might not have been a good one, and even if it was, things might have changed, but we need to be aware of it. Otherwise, we risk unleashing unintended consequences that spread like ripples on a pond, causing damage for years.
Elsewhere, in his essay collection Heretics, Chesterton makes a similar point, detailed here:
Suppose that a great commotion arises in the street about something, let us say a lamp-post, which many influential persons desire to pull down. A grey-clad monk, who is the spirit of the Middle Ages, is approached upon the matter, and begins to say, in the arid manner of the Schoolmen, “Let us first of all consider, my brethren, the value of Light. If Light be in itself good—” At this point he is somewhat excusably knocked down. All the people make a rush for the lamp-post, the lamp-post is down in ten minutes, and they go about congratulating each other on their un-mediaeval practicality. But as things go on they do not work out so easily. Some people have pulled the lamp-post down because they wanted the electric light; some because they wanted old iron; some because they wanted darkness, because their deeds were evil. Some thought it not enough of a lamp-post, some too much; some acted because they wanted to smash municipal machinery; some because they wanted to smash something. And there is war in the night, no man knowing whom he strikes. So, gradually and inevitably, to-day, to-morrow, or the next day, there comes back the conviction that the monk was right after all, and that all depends on what is the philosophy of Light. Only what we might have discussed under the gas-lamp, we now must discuss in the dark.
For anyone still unaware that the hurricane that flooded the mountains (yeah!) was meant to flush out the pesky locals that would not let the mining company called Piedmont from mining the lithium found in that region specifically, which was being blocked from the invasive mining by the local people, I received this email, which I have permission to post along with its links.
gave away a couple more copies of ‘Believe’ but I think people just want something to read more than being really interested in where they stand. We’re in good shape other than the front porch and part of the front of the house needing replaced. A guy is starting on it next week so all is good. Water was 24 feet for a day or two just below us on the main road. A storage lot of empty tractor trailer trailers had them floating around and a couple of trucks burned due to some sort of short when they got submerged but it didn’t spread beyond that pair. Water that usually flows down the far side of a nearby mountain was blocked by mudslides and fallen trees so it came down our side and did a lot of damage to roads and railroad tracks. We were really blessed to get power back in just two days but it was out again for another three days after the first restoration then came back along with internet and cell service. People don’t realize what 30″ of rain hitting after four days that dropped 11″ prior to the storm hitting can do. Water didn’t flow faster where it cut a channel, it created torrents that carried vehicles and houses along with it. The main road is dry again so the 24 feet we had is all drained to the French Broad and it’s now all about finding bodies and helping people get by. FEMA folks arrived in groups of four or five to look things over about day five, then some help from the Fedz arrived over the next few days but the only real help has been from local folks and nearby States sending help. So far, the Feds just have tank trucks of clean water, some fuel trucks, and here and there MREs to pass out. Meanwhile charities and companies have been providing hot meals, temporary housing including some local hotels putting families up at no charge, and lots of restaurants that can get resupplied giving out free meals. Here are a couple links of the situation by people either I or a family member knows so they’re trustworthy without BS or spin. Dunno why I added all the personal stuff to just telling you your book is getting out there but hey, I felt chatty today
Oh Look… what a Cohencidence!
