Besides endangering your salvation, keep in mind that "straight porn" will eventually make you a pervert of some sort. Avoid it all.
Happy Feast of the Lord's Circumcision. May 2025 be us cooperating with grace more than last year. (And let's close the borders ASAP. NOLA terrorist who killed 10 last night was apparently an illegal from Mexico.)
I'm a sinner, but I won't buy any of the lie to fit in. Not even a little bit. The days of compromise with the devil are over.
As for the Charlie Brown Christmas "Christmas Time is Here..." well, I think I could listen to that song all day long through all of Christmastide. So sad and so happy,. Blessed Feast of the Holy Name and Epiphany/Theophany to you all.
It takes more than gun safety to be a gun expert. But if you don't have pristine safety skills, there's no way to convince me you're adept at shooting. So many men think sloppiness demonstrates bravado and acuity, but they're just unimpressive and dangerous.
I just talked to a married friend on the phone from Los Angeles who lives near this Church. Many of the homes around him burned down, but his home had the purple scapular and they doused it in holy water (and that family lives a very holy life.) Miraculously, their home is fine. Pray for all the others (and them too.)

The following was written from inside a Connecticut prison during January 2025 by Will Goodman (top left, currently a political prisoner in the United States for his peaceful pro-life work inside pre-born children killing-centers.)

There are about one billion Catholics and one billion non-Catholic Christians on the planet. Why did so many divert from the true Church at, say, the Reformation? I think it's the same four reasons as to why so many modern "Catholics" today adhere to error and bad liturgy after Vatican II:
1) They're deceived by demons and bad hierarchy.
2) They believe new ideas are actually old in Christianity (antiqarianism.)
3) They want to "fit-in" because it's easier.
4) They don't think they have time to study Church history because ultimately they don't think anyone (especially not oneself) is in any real danger of hell.
