In the world you shall have distress: but have confidence, I have overcome the world.

In mundo pressuram habebitis : sed confidite, ego vici mundum.

John 16: 33

Canon Henrique Fragelli is not merely on a ventilator, he is on full life support.

He fell ill at the ICK’s mission in Gabon, Africa and was medivacked to Italy a week ago. He has gone downhill and is now on life support.

We’re into full Miracle territory here. Miracles are real, and happen – IF WE ASK FOR THEM.

So. Time to ask.

Let’s enjoin the patrons of the ICK, St. Francis de Sales and St. Philip Neri, and let’s enjoin Saints Cosmas and Damian, the twin brother physicians and martyrs, who are, I am reliably informed, the patrons of the hospital where Canon Fragelli is currently being treated.

For the full healing and recovery of Canon Henrique Fragelli, let us pray to the Lord, the Sovereign and All-powerful Trinity.

Sts. Cosmas and Damian, pray for us!

Sts. Francis de Sales and Philip Neri, pray for us!

Our Lady, Health of the Sick, pray for us!

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on us!

Just some minor orthopaedic work…

Hello Ann,

I’m just a reader and stranger..

But I have said a Rosary for the stricken priest. The Joyful Mysteries, because – the fruit of the Second Joyful Mystery, charity towards our neighbor. And I appealed to the saints you mentioned.

God bless,

Oh, this is delightful! Shame on you Mark Docherty for not sharing your TeamPonyPaste beauty secrets!!

Ann,

An amusing use of Ivermectin for your kit bag: shrink nose pores.

Enlarged pores can be due to Demodex, a microscopic parasite feasting down your pore. Demodex infections cause rosacea, which causes enlarged reddened pores, which can become W.C. Fields’ Nose.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4807898/

I have really nice skin, but my nose pores aren’t all they used to be, and I’ve been showing some rosacea on my cheeks. After the first day of using Ivermectin 1.87% horse parasite paste on my nose, I saw much improvement, so I started wiping it on my cheeks. It’s been about 5 days now, and I’m thrilled. It works, and does so immediately.

Dermatologists know this, and sell Ivermectin under the name of Soolantra for about $550. I’m enjoying the $7 farm supply version.

Viva la Ivermectin revolution!!

Denninger nails it. All of this hacking and ransom ware crap that has become a legit threat to national security and human life on a mass scale is totally unnecessary and preventable and is happening only because employers are terrified of cutting their employees off from the social media, gaming and pornography addictions in the workplace.

WHY ARE WORKSTATION COMPUTERS CONNECTED TO THE WIDE-OPEN INTERNET AT ALL???

Because pretty much everyone, from the guy scrubbing the toilets to the entire C-suite, are all addicted to some combination of SOCIAL MEDIA, GAMING and PORNOGRAPHY.

The issue here isn’t the hackers. The issue is the suicidal, freely-chosen negligence of ADDICTS and EFFEMINATES.

“But, muh, half the employees would quit if we took away internet access inside building!”

“Yes, but those who remained would be 150% more productive, so you’d actually be overstaffed….”

Remember folks, everything happening in the collapse of the post-Christian West is SELF-INFLICTED, and almost all problems could be solved very, very easily. This is what happens when a culture nose-dives into godlessness, sloth and effeminacy. Sin makes you stupid. As in, as Denninger likes to say, so stupid that things like flush toilets and electric lighting become unsustainable from a purely logistical and the simplest maintenance and security standpoints.

It’s NOT ABOUT the Anti-Nail! Shut up, Stoopid!

Oh, Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho. It all comes into sharper and sharper focus, doesn’t it?

Screen cap, download and aggressively share, folks.

And understand to the marrow of your bones how psychopathic BigPharma is and has been for a very long time.

They WANT you sick.

THEY. NEED. YOU. SICK.

They VASTLY prefer you dead with a six-figure drug bill than alive with a pennies-per-dose cure.

Luciferian rat rat rat bastards.

It’s only a few seconds in. You can’t miss it.

I look at all of the Trad Inc. parti$an$ and those under their ideological thumb attacking Vatican I and papal infallibility all day every day, and I just… can’t… even…

The completely irrational, prideful obtuseness on display from people with above-average IQs is just stunning.  And as you all know, I’m pretty jaded and don’t stun easily.

How can you POSSIBLY adopt the intransigent position that an infallible ecumenical council which declared dogma is “wrong”, and that the ENTIRE CHURCH FOR 2000 YEARS, every saint, every doctor of the Church, every orthodox believing Catholic from Kings to illiterate peasants – ALL OF THEM were not just wrong about the papacy, but were guilty of the sin of IDOLATRY with regards to the papacy?  Oh, and also, the words of the EXPLICIT PROMISE of Our Lord Jesus Christ in the Gospels to Peter in the establishment and guarantee of special protection of the Papacy was either ERRONEOUS, LIES, or REVOCABLE?

Um, maybe instead of attacking the Papacy, and by immediate logical corollary Holy Mother Church AND Our Lord Jesus Christ, you might just pump ya brakes a little and ask yourself:

“I wonder if the Divine Providence had a REASON for the promulgation of the dogma of Papal Infallibility in ARSH 1870?” 🤔

Just off the top of my head… maybe the Divine Providence in His Perfection provided for the promulgation of the dogma of Papal Infallibility in ARSH 1870 PRECISELY SO THAT THE WORLD COULD KNOW, FOR AN ABSOLUTE DOGMATIC CERTAINTY by simple observation, THAT BERGOGLIO ISN’T THE POPE, and THUS SOMETHING HAD TO BE TERRIBLY, TERRIBLY WRONG WITH THE EVENTS LEADING UP TO BERGOGLIO’S USURPATION.

Maybe if people would attack this controversy from the base assumption that GOD ALMIGHTY is THE PERFECT ONE as manifested in His Spotless and Indefectible Bride the Church, in His Angels, and in His Saints, and that THEY THEMSELVES are deeply fallible and so very capable of error, INSTEAD OF THE EXACT OPPOSITE,  there might be a bit more clarity of thought round about.

“…for men are not bound, or able to read hearts; but when they see that someone is a heretic by his external works, they judge him to be a heretic pure and simple, and condemn him as a heretic.”
-St. Robert Bellarmine, Doctor of the Church

Reiterating: Bergoglio isn’t an Antipope because he is a raging heretic / apostate.  He’s an Antipope because the current Pope Benedict XVI Ratzinger never lost the Petrine Office because he never legally resigned it.

Bergoglio’s heresy/apostasy is only a GINORMOUS VISIBLE RED FLAG that points BACKWARD to the root of the problem, which is Pope Benedict’s canonically invalid attempted partial resignation. It is of paramount importance to understand the logical procession in play.

Recognizing The Real is the duty of every human being, with Catholics first among them, because Our Lord Jesus Christ IS HIMSELF THE AUTHOR AND SUSTAINER OF REALITY, and we literally receive The Author and Sustainer of Reality’s physical substance- Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity- into our own bodies and souls.  When we receive Holy Communion, we receive REALITY HIMSELF.

Remember well, folks, ONLY THE REAL COUNTS.

Only The Real counts. Only The Real matters.

Subj: Memorial Day post – parallels between priests and guards

“–Priests are also supposed to walk with a very deliberate gait – slow, measured and reverent in exactly the same way the Tomb Guards walk in a slow, deliberate, reverent gait.”

The Germans have a special verb for this style of ceremonial walk: schritten. It is also the same walk a bride uses when coming down the aisle – the foot glides forward and there’s a brief stop before the next step is taken.

C.S. Lewis, in ‘A Preface to Paradise Lost’ wrote this about the proper use of ritual and ceremony:

The quality will be understood by any one who really understands the meaning of the Middle English word solempne. This means something different, but not quite different, from the modern English solemn. Like solemn it implies the opposite of what is familiar, free and easy, or ordinary. But unlike solemn it does not suggest gloom, oppression, or austerity….

The Solempne is the festal which is also the stately and the ceremonial, the proper occasion for pomp — and the very fact that pompous is now used only in a bad sense measures the degree to which we have lost the old idea of ‘solemnity’. To recover it, you must think of a court ball, or a coronation, or a victory march, as these things appear to people who enjoy them; in an age when every one puts on his oldest clothes to be happy in, you must re-awake the simpler state of mind in which people put on gold and scarlet to be happy in. Above all, you must get rid of the hideous idea, fruit of a widespead inferiority complex, that pomp, on the proper occasions, has any connexion with vanity or self-conceit. A celebrant approaching the altar, a princess being led out by a king to dance a minuet, a general officer on a ceremonial parade, a major-domo preceding the boar’s head at a Christmas feast — all these wear unusual clothes and move with calculated dignity. This does not mean that they are vain, but that they are obedient; they are obeying the hoc age [“do this”] which presides over every solemnity.

The modern habit of doing ceremonial things unceremoniously is not proof of humility; rather it proves the offender’s inability to forget himself in the rite, and his readiness to spoil for every one else the proper pleasure of ritual.

Subj: Ivermectin story from Canada

Hello Ann,

I have been your reader for years. I wanted to share my story about Ivermectin.

As I completely trust you and your judgement, I immediately ordered Ivermectin after reading your information about its efficacy. I also shared it with my friends and family.

I encouraged my cousins to order Ivermectin. They said they would but it never happened.

At the beginning of May they fell ill with COVID but did not tell me until 2 weeks later when they were already quite ill. My cousin had pneumonia and his wife was also really sick (coughing, fever, fatigue, lack of appetite). They had tests done so they knew it was COVID. Their doctor prescribed antibiotics and other medication which did not help at all.

{Sit in stillness with the fact that a doctor prescribed antibiotics for an allegedly diagnosed viral infection. Antibiotics have zero effect on viruses. Modern medicine is a total farce. Pray for the glorious restoration of the Church Militant so that actual evidence-based pro-life medicine not tied to kleptocracy can re-emerge and once again be the driving force in ALL science and education. 🙏🏻 -AlphaBravo}

After 2 weeks they called me, barely being able to speak because they knew that I had Ivermectin. I gave it to them along with a bottle of Elderberry syrup for coughing and after the second dose of Ivermectin ( 72 hours after they took the first dose of 1.75ml) they already felt a bit better.

A few days later a noticeable improvement. They are now feeling much, much better and are recovering.

I cannot help but think that had they taken it right from the onset of their symptoms they would have not been so ill.

I wanted to also share, dear Ann, that had I really paid attention to what you were writing about the future Which we are living in the present time I would have been in a better position now. We live and learn.

I am extremely grateful for your knowledge that you share with people and please continue to write.

May God bless you and keep you in good health!
