Painful to realize the level of evil at work in the world. Things seemed “off” that day of course. Surreal. I remember them finding the passport of one of the high jackets laying on a Manhattan street. Come on. But I moved on and didn’t know how to process. A year or two later I checked some of the truther websites, and without a doubt, none of this added up to what the media was saying. Learning about WTC 7 was the nail in the coffin as far as mainstream narratives for me. But continuing to research and speak and share truth is only way forward. I’m actually encouraged that 9/11 discrepancies won’t go away in the public mind. View quoted note →

Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta (1910 - 1997) India, Malaysia, Singapore, Denmark, Slovenia Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu was born on 26 August 1910 at Skopje in Macedonia. She left home at the age of 18 to join the Sisters of Loreto in Ireland, where she received the name Sister Mary Teresa, after St Thérèse of Lisieux. In 1931 she was assigned to the order’s Calcutta house and taught at their school there, where she eventually became headmistress. She received a new vocation to help the poor and destitute, and in 1948, obeying this call, she left the convent and took up a new life caring for them wherever they might be: lying sick in the street or even dying in dustbins. Some of her former pupils joined her, one by one, and the new congregation of the Missionaries of Charity was established in the Diocese of Calcutta in 1950, spreading across India and eventually onto every continent, even behind the Iron Curtain. Many related orders followed, involving men and women, clergy and laity, and both the active and the contemplative life. Mother Teresa died on 5 September 1997 and was beatified by Pope John Paul II on 19 October 2003 and canonized by Pope Francis on 4 September 2016. Mother Teresa’s widespread appeal comes from the directness of her inspiration, and her direct response to it. She went out and did things where they were needed. When we think of big problems we inevitably think that they can only be solved by a big campaign. Perhaps that is true, perhaps not; but while the campaign is getting going, why not go out and help one person in the name of Mother Teresa? If there are 1,000 hungry people in your city, why not make it 999? If each of us did that – well, in most countries where this is being read, there are more Catholics than there are people in need. As Monsignor Ronald Knox has said: “I am not advocating world-movements or public meetings... my appeal is rather to the individual conscience than to the public ear; my hope is rather to see the emergence of a Saint, than that of an organization... “There is no harm in besieging heaven for the canonization of such and such holy persons now dead. But should we not do well to vary these petitions of ours by asking for more Saints to canonize?” ________ Collect God of might, giver of every good gift, put into our hearts the love of your name, so that, by deepening our sense of reverence, you may nurture in us what is good and, by your watchful care, keep safe what you have nurtured. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen. image

Good morning! Robert Breedlove was excellent on Rugpull Radio (linked in earlier post). Recommended interview. He highly recommended reading this book about money in the Bible, and the basics of Austrian economics. I plan on reading. From Mises: https://mises.org/library/honest-money

Trying to articulate a thought: A few days ago we witnessed a house burn down in our neighborhood. We actually called 911. Nobody was hurt. House mostly destroyed. It made me think of how I and the people nearby wanted to help. Badly. We made sure that nobody was inside. Called for help. People want to help their fellow man. People do help their fellow man. People sacrifice, heroically sometimes, to help and save those in need. Fires are a dramatic case but make the point. People give food, money and shelter. Why? Because life is valuable. Human life is sacred. You don’t need to believe in God to know life is valuable and with saving, even at a great personal price. You don’t even think about it. It just happens. So - people will share, give, fight for sacrifice for, each other. This comes out when these great needs present themselves, like a fire. It gave me a lot of hope in people. I think whoever is pulling all these psy ops and bull crap the last few years (and beyond) want us to forget this. I think they want us to be numb to the need of our neighbor. Distracted. Depressed. Hopeless. I feel like they want to degrade our God given dignity, the goodness of being alive, of our bodies, of humanity. God called the creation “good” when He made it. He called man “very good”. We know this, in spite of all our failures and brokeness, we are good. Worth saving. That’s why we help each other. So, we must remember our goodness. The value of all life. And I think we will. Because we will give so much to help when people are in need. I believe good will win.
