This year's Advent meditation is: Prepare Our Hearts, Give Him Room...... ......And Make Ye Way the Coming of the LORD! Thank You, Father, that You sent Your Son to save us. May the hope of Jesus be born again amongst us this Christmas.  And with it, may the din of canons and the bombs of…

A burger store in the inner suburb of Caulfield, Victoria, Australia caught fire last Friday* as a result of an as-yet unidentified explosion. The owner Mr Hash Tayeh of Jordanian origin was caught up in a storm of controversy on account of the blaze due to his political views regarding the war in the Holy…

https://www.news.com.au/national/proisrael-vigil-outside-parliament-house-comes-with-holocaust-warning/news-story/5bc57f8171f00ea3537ca251347ff562 Yes, exactly! What are they doing in filing a banal comparison? You cannot compare the two - the new Palestine territories flag with the Nazi one!!! If you do then, what it means is that you are essentially calling all Gentiles "Nazis", which btw would amount to one of the greatest slurs of bigotry…

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-67047034 And this "rave" no doubt was part of the problem. You see, it seriously looks to have been drug-oriented. And this kind of techno-house music festival has absolutely zilch to do with celebrating Suqot! It's all about illicit substance use and abuse. You can see from the map of the area where the event…

I think much of what you said lays bare the facts that all too many so-called "new history" types don't want to even recognize, all because the truth is hard for them to take, why? Because these trollops are "yes-manning" the elitist likes of self-styled activists Marcia Langton, Robby Thorpe, Lydia Thorpe,…

Whilst it is necessary to call people out who are supposed to be conscientiously driven by personal moral and public integrity but end up doing a disservice to their own apostolic witness such as has been seen in the previous post on Bishop Robert Barron, there are other moments when we need to give proper…

https://www.ncronline.org/opinion/ncr-voices/why-does-bishop-barron-keep-attacking-pope-francis-allies How arrogant he is for castigating the initial step of sharing the Good News, the first tentative but nevertheless essential step in the conversion process! Without this step, you cannot have a process as all processes begin somewhere. The first step is perhaps just as vital as the last and final step, just as…
