This is part two of what is turning out to be a three-part series.

This commentary on the new ways by which the modern Aztecs in the medical industry are expanding the definition of its manufactured, profit-making myth of "brain death" to vivisect living human beings for the vital bodily organs.

I am not unmindful of other events in the world.  I will try to get to a few of  those events after completing part three of this series and then part twenty-two of Benedictus Qui Vent in Nomine Domini, Hosann in Excelsis.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Praxedes, pray for us.

This is a study demonstrating the continuum that leads from contaception directly to the surgical assassination of the innocent preborn, to euthanasia, palliative care/hospice, "brain death"/vital organ vivisection, and the starvation and dehydration of innocent human beings under the cover of the civil law.

There are reflections about Saints Camillus de Lellis and Vincent de Paul in the body of this commentary and appendices with reflections on each by Father Francis X. Weninger, S.J.

Part two should appear on Monday, July 21, 2025.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Camillus de Lellis, pray for us.

Saint Symphorosa and her Seven Sons, pray for us.

Saint Vincent de Paul, pray for us.

Saint Jerome Emiliani, pray for us.

The title speaks for itself as the hour is late and, as per usual at this hour, I am tired.

A blessed Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel to you all.

Our Lady of Mount Carmel, pray for us.

Today's Commemoration of Our Lady of Mount Carmel represents what tremendous love that Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ has for us by sending us His Most Blessed Mother to give us a sacramental by which we are clothed in the garment of her Brown Scapular, which serves as a particular protection at the moment of death if we have been faithful to all of the conditions of our enrollment.

Our Lord has permitted His Most Blessed Mother to give us so many aids to get home to Heaven--the Rosary, the Brown Scapular, the Miraculous Medal, the Green Scapular, devotion to her Immaculate Heart as part of her Fatima Message.

We must wear our Brown Scapular of Mount Carmel constantly as we bear witness as best we can that we have been given a loving Mother in Heaven who intercedes for us to live in such a way in this passing, mortal vale of tears that we will always be ready to die and have her pleading for us nunc, et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen."

Let us continue to pray for each other and for Holy Mother Church in this time of apostasy and betrayal as we shield ourselves in Our Lady's garment of the Mount Scapular and pray with fervor and devotion her Most Holy Rosary every day. I beg your prayers also for our daughter on the occasion of the seventeenth anniversary of her Confirmation.

A blessed Commemoration of Our Lady of Mount Carmel to you all!

Our Lady of Mount Carmel, pray for us.

Saint Simon Stock, pray for us.

This is a revised reflection in honor of my own Confirmation patron saint, Saint Henry the Emperor, on his feast day. Saint Henry was a superb exemplar of the Social Reign of Christ the King who sought to foster peace among men by promoting the missionary work of Holy Mother Church in parts of central and eastern Europe at the beginning of the Second Millennium. He knew that Catholicism was the one and only foundation of personal and social order, seeking at all times to honor Christ the King and Mary our Immaculate Queen.

May we plead with him this day and every day to help us to see the world more clearly through the eyes of the Catholic Faith as the consecrated slaves of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, He Who is the King of every man and every nation on the face of this earth without any exception whatsoever, through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary.

Our Lady of Mount Carmel, pray for us.

Saint Henry the Emperor, pray for us.

A new conciliar document stresses that one of the goals of the “synodal path” is to find a “new way of being church.”

Perhaps it is not necessary to waste time on this apostasy. However, this commentary explains that there has never been nor can there ever be any “new way of being church.”

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Bonaventure, pray for us.

This a long study about how the adminstration of President Donald John Trump is handling the mess caused by previous adminstration's decision to refuse enforce the nation's existing immigration laws. Over twelve million foreign nationals were permitted to cross into the United States of America without applying to enter legally as a consquence.

This having been noted, though, there are no easy solutions to the problems we face, and it is always essential that policy-makers act in light of eternity and to see in all others the Divine impress. Seen any of those lately.

Mind you, this is only a study, nothing more, but I offer it to the readers of this site to provide a perspective that very few people are providing.

Finally, I am now $600 short of the goal that I need to meet current expenses, and it is with this in mind that I ask those readers who have not made a tax-deductible financial gift to do so now. Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint John Gualbert, pray for us.

Saints Nabor and Felix, pray for us.

I am offering you a  revised reflection on the holy life and work of Saint John Gualbert that was written many a moon ago. 

A new commentary will be published in about ten mintues or so. 

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint John Gualbert, pray for us.

Saints Nabor and Felix, pray for us.

This commentary, which was published over a month ago, has been updated and revised in light of recent remarks of Victor Manuel Fernandez and of Protestant activist who was fired from the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts at the direction of “married” sodomite Richard Grenell because he, Brown, would not support sodomite “marriage.”

Now, I am working on my next article about immigration enforcement, which is taking time to complete because there are many aspects to the current enforcement efforts that are positive but others that are quite troubling by being so focused on “quotas” that even naturalized citizens, foreign nationals with student or work visas, and permanent residents are being sent to detention centers to await deportation proceedings.

There are many distinctions that need to be made when commenting on such an issue, and it is because I am attempting to make those distinctions that the work on it is taking longer than I expected. I hope to have the commentary completed in time for posting on Saturday, July 12, 2025, the Feast of Saint John Gualbert.

Finally, I received three donations yesterday that have significantly helped me to get closer to my recently stated fund raising goal. Thus, I encourage those who support the work of this site and have the financial wherewith to make a donation but have done so recently, if at all, to do so at this time. Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Pope Saint Pius I, pray for us.

I offer you today, Tuesday, July 9, 2025, a revised commentary on the feasts of Saints John Fisher and Thomas More, Saint John of Cologne, O.P., and the Martyrs of Gorkum, Saint Maria Goretti, and Saint Veronica Giuliani that are celebrated in some places even though they are not on the General Roman calendar of the Catholic Church.

The appendix consists of the Mass Propers for the Mass of Saints John Fisher and Thomas with Commemorations of Saint John of Cologne, O.P., and the Martyrs of Gorkum, Saint Maria Goretti, and Saint Veronica Giuliani in Latin and in English.
