And now, let's begin with today's Vortex...

The greatest battle of all time.

As we pointed out last week, the No. 1 enemy of the Faith on the world stage right now is communism. It operates under various movements: climate alarmism, globalism and so forth. And each of those movements spawns insidious consequences of its own.

One especially urgent issue striking at the very heart of Western civilization is communism's push for cancel culture. Communism is a cancer that is plaguing humanity, leaving a trail of destruction, death, and despair wherever it takes root.

And now, we're witnessing a disturbing trend right here in America — the power of cancel culture, which is a throwback to the oppressive tactics employed by communist regimes of the past.

Cancel culture seeks to silence dissenting voices, erase history and impose a narrow, ideologically driven narrative on society. It's a dangerous force that tramples on the principles of free speech and open discourse, principles that are the bedrock of any free and just society.

It's precisely why our 2021 rally against the bishops was shut down by the city of Baltimore and we had to go to court just to win back our First Amendment rights, but not without spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees to get that victory.

Many of you are, of course, already clued into the tactics of the commies. So the question is, What can we do in the face of these daunting challenges?

In addition to action (political and cultural) in the natural realm, we must also especially concentrate efforts in the supernatural realm as well. Both are needed. On the one hand, way too many Catholics do nothing except pray, a kind of retreat from the spiritual war into piety.

That's not good enough; it's faith and good works. That means becoming involved — on the streets, in politics and so forth. On the other hand, the "activist" Catholics too often get absorbed and even lost in the "works" part and too often neglect (or downplay the importance of) the supernatural.

Again, both are needed. We are a composite of body and soul: the natural, material order and the supernatural order. Both areas, both dynamics, must be fully engaged in the war.

And now, let's begin with today's Vortex...

Now go destroy communism with the Rosary.

In 1917, the Queen of Heaven came to earth to warn her children about communism and its awesome destructive power.

It is, in no uncertain words, the Death Star of the demonic, with its treacherous anti-human, anti-God ideology that has plagued humanity for over a century. And here, in the United States, it has taken over not just multiple institutions but also a political party, the Democrats.

There is a link, a connection, between America as we traditionally understand the concept and its being fought violently against by the Democrats. Communism ultimately rails against humanity and God's creation — even God Himself.

That is how, in one glance, you know its origin is the pits of Hell. *The Dems have adopted the Communist Manifesto as their party platform.* Period.

They detest and devalue human life at every turn, beginning with the weakest — the elderly, the preborn. Then they implement their race-baiting policies, keeping down African Americans and wiping out the family in that community, making a large portion of them completely dependent on the State.

Democratic Party policies are communist. Period. No matter what they call themselves — globalists, environmentalists, social justice warriors, socialists — they are all the same. They detest religion. They hate American exceptionalism because that exceptionalism is based on Catholic principles of the dignity of every human being created in the image of God.

They hate God, just as Satan does, and they hate humanity, just as Satan does. (Humanity is why Lucifer was cast out of the angelic realm, after all.)

That's why so many of their policies are aimed at depopulation, no matter how they get at it — "health crisis," controlling the weather, abortion, contraception. They employ them all. Communism is a sinister force that seeks to undermine and destroy the very fabric of Western civilization, our freedom and our Faith.

#Divine Mercy: Fraud — or Faithful? | Forward Boldly

What’s the truth about this devotion?

Is the Divine Mercy devotion a fraud? Are the private revelations to St. Faustina heretical? Or is the Divine Mercy devotion one of the greatest gifts the Church has given us in these days? That and more in this episode.

Archbishop Viganò responds to MediaPressInfo on the request for dissolution of “CIVITAS”     (remnantnewspaper.com)

#Archbishop Viganò responds to MediaPressInfo on the request for dissolution of “CIVITAS”

Paul DEROGIS: Excellency, during his recent appearance on the French programme ‘Géopolitique Profonde’, when asked about his “Roman” contacts, the president of Civitas, Alain Escada, replied that Bishop Viganò was the only Roman prelate today, apart from those ordained without Roman consent, to fight the New World Order and to support Civitas which also fights against globalism. Do you actually consider yourself an exception among the Roman prelates? And if so, how do you explain this worrying situation?

+Archbishop Carlo M. Viganò: I do not claim to consider myself the only Prelate to have denounced the subversive globalist plan: other Bishops (very few, in fact) have expressed concern about woke ideology, gender theory and green environmentalism. But what I haven’t heard them denounce is Bergoglio’s complicity with the New World Order, which reached new heights of enslavement to Big Pharma during the pandemic farce, and at the World Economic Forum with the climate fraud. I think, however, that in their hearts, some of my colleagues are beginning to open their eyes to a crisis that certainly did not begin in 2013.

The element that, in my opinion, must be understood – for the denunciation to be complete – is the mirror relationship between the coup d’état of the Deep State in the civil sphere and that analogous equivalent of the Deep Church in the ecclesiastical sphere. The modus operandi of subversive actions is identical, as are the principles that animate them and the objectives they set for themselves. It is essential to understand that the Second Vatican Council and the Novus Ordo were to the Church what the Revolution and the Declaration of Human Rights were to civil societies, because at the base of both of them broods the poisonous seed of the Revolution, that is to say the subversion of the natural order that God established for man and for human societies.

Paul D: Do you believe, like the president of Civitas, that globalism is essentially satanic?

Abp. Viganò: The essence of globalism is satanic, and the essence of Satanism is globalist. Because Satan’s plan is to establish the reign of the Antichrist, allowing him to parody Christ’s earthly life, to imitate His miracles with grotesque wonders, to lead crowds not with the simplicity of Truth but with deception and lies. Globalism is, so to speak, the staging, the script and the scenario that must prepare humanity for the political ascent of the Antichrist, to whom the leaders of the world – his servants – will cede national sovereignty so that he becomes a kind of global tyrant.

But the kingdom of the Antichrist is not created out of nothing: it is first necessary to erase what remains of the kingdom of Christ in the institutions, in the culture and in the daily life of the citizens. Moral dissolution is one of the simplest means of subjugating the masses, encouraging them to vice, ridiculing virtue; and, of course, by destroying the natural family, the fundamental cell of society. Once the family is demolished, the children become commodities, products that those with money can order over the Internet, fuelling the vast and growing criminal network, not to mention the surrogacy industry. Divorce, abortion, euthanasia, homosexuality and pan- sexualism, mutilation for gender transition have proven to be effective tools for eliminating not only the revealed Faith, but also the most sacred principles of Natural Law.

And it is indeed a religion, the one that is being established with the Woke ideology; a religion which, like the true Religion but with diametrically opposed goals, intends to impose itself in society, to imbue its dogmas into the institutions, the laws, the education, the culture, the arts and human activities. The globalists apply the Catholic principles of “social kingship,” but proclaim Satan king of society: Te nationum præsides honore tollant publico: colant magistri, judices; leges et artes exprimant. May the rulers of the world publicly honour and extol Thee; May teachers and judges reverence Thee; May the laws and the arts bear Thy mark. These are the words of the hymn of Christ the King, but we see them applied blasphemously by the priests of the New World Order to their king, the prince of this world, and to the Antichrist in his time.

Beware though: globalism, as an emanation of Masonic and revolutionary thought, apparently proclaims democracy and condemns absolute regimes; but in fact, it knows very well that the Monarchy of Divine Right is the best possible form of government, because it subjugates everyone – including the king himself, who is the Vicar of Christ in temporal things – to a transcendent law to which everyone owes obedience.

And now, let's begin with today's Vortex...

A ruthless strategy that will likely go viral.

The communist Left is at it again. In case you missed it, the initial rollout of COVID-panic 2.0 is underway. Right here, in the dog days of summer, it's all being ginned up again, from masks to shots — just in time for election season.

The machinery is once again being uncovered, dusted off, oiled up and being put through the paces. That means two things: You are going to start hearing more and more about "the deadliest virus in the history of humanity" and censorship of "misinformation" along with the dramatic need to make sure that all of it is squashed — all in the name of preserving your health, of course.

Lionsgate movies tried mandating masks on their sets, quickly removing it after public backlash, claiming the so-called "outbreak is contained." A number of the Marxist colleges and universities are psyching up their moronic beta male and aggressive female student bodies as well.

The total ineffectiveness of masks and the enormous number of side effects from the last round of jabs are, of course, ignored and poo-pooed by the Marxist media. And when it becomes evident that it's all true, out come the "experts" to lie to you.

So a question for the U.S. bishops: Are they going to start with their Marxist go-along antics this time around as well? Masks at Mass. Yellow tape on every other pew. A football field between each of the congregants. Bathing in hand sanitizer instead of holy water. And, of course, all leading up to shutting down the parishes. You already know the answer.

These bishops who feed at the money trough of the Democrat Marxists are not going to bite the hand that fattens their coffers. Bishop-approved Biden — and yes, they approve of him — is already already gearing up to sign off on another jab.

It's all about power for commies — inside the Church as well as outside — and a commie Catholic in the Oval Office makes their job even easier.

The problem for too many faithful Catholics and political conservatives is they simply fail to recognize this, in and out of the Church. Marxists are hell-bent on world domination. Karl Marx made no bones about that. Antonio Gramsci, founder of the Italian Communist Party, made no bones about it, as well as publicly stating the need to destroy the Catholic Church to gain that dominance.

And now, let's begin with today's Vortex...

The conflict between Catholicism and evil.

Here's the big picture: The world today is in a battle between the forces of Catholicism versus communism, which is to say Catholicism versus atheism.

Communism, for all its evil and terror, is, at the end of the day, nothing more than a political system to end belief in God. Every other belief system on earth, every ideological view, is moving toward either one of those two poles.

Catholicism is of God. Atheism is out Satan. Everything else is just battles and wars and skirmishes in the great conflict. Which is not to say they are unimportant — quite the opposite. Wars are finally won by winning enough battles and seizing enough territory to plant your flag firmly atop the capitol.

But while the battles (some larger, some smaller) are being fought, you can never lose sight of the overriding war. That's what it's ultimately all about, which side gets to plant its flag.

War is exhausting. Battles wear you out. That's true of both sides. But the commies face far less opposition than the Catholic side does because Catholics and others of goodwill have simply been naive in their assessment of the reality.

Catholics historically just don't want to get involved, with the exception of the pro-life cause. And even there, it's not like enormous percentages of Catholics were involved. And when it came to voting, gigantic numbers still cast their votes for the child-killing communists.

Likewise, when it comes to charitable giving, Catholics are generally bringing up the rear compared to Protestants. Like Bp. Sheen said, "Catholics have all truth and no zeal." Why that is needs to be explored. But for the moment, let's just leave it where it is for this Vortex episode, and that is that communism has made such rapid and overpowering progress because most Catholics just don't care, or care enough.

#Brazil's Cultural Transformation Under the Law | The Vortex

And now, let's begin with today's Vortex...

From Catholic majority to minority.

In the largest Catholic country in the world, it is now officially against the law to utter an anti-homosexual slur. Yes — against the law.

Last week, Brazil's Supreme Court, in a 9–1 decision, handed down the ruling, building on a 2019 ruling that said discrimination against the alphabet gang constitutes "racism," therefore saying something against them constitutes a racial slur.

And just so you know, you can go to prison for two to five years for that crime now. If more than one of you say something, the sentence is doubled — so there goes any kind of rally, demonstration or so forth.

How it might apply inside a Church, during a homily, for example, is unclear.

When John Paul went to Brazil in 1980, more than 90% of Brazil was Catholic. This year, just 43 years later, it's now 50%. For the first time in centuries, Catholics are about to lose the majority status in what is still the largest Catholic country (in terms of population) in the world.

What took hundreds of years to build has been wiped out in two generations.

And when that happens, it's a guarantee that the natural moral law will be jettisoned and the political–cultural system will follow suit, producing rulings like last week's. All of this is a result of a communist plan launched almost a century ago to destroy the West by destroying the Catholic Church by destroying morals and what those morals protect — the family, society's basic building block.

Once families are no longer intact, individuals become dependent on the State, which serves to increase its power. Once that road is set upon, it's never going to end well because the State assumes the powers of God and abuses those powers.

Church Militant has been pounding, and will continue to pound, the theme of anti-communism because communism is ultimately godless tyranny. It is a system built on the belief that the State is God.

We've produced quite a few programs relating to this and have more planned, but in the meantime, we are happy to reach into our video vault and re-present to many of you who have not seen it this episode of Marian Moments where we review the message of Fatima and the urgency of Our Lady's call.

Never say you are 'spiritual' but not 'religious.'

There has been a horribly thought out — if you could even call it thinking — maxim floating around the culture for a couple of decades now. It's the pathetic statement, "I'm spiritual, not religious."

The viewpoint is so far beyond stupid it's hard to know where to even begin deconstructing those four words. The root of the problem is ignorance — some of it willful, some of the invincible kind. In the heavily estrogen-saturated culture in which we live, where everything is reduced to emotion, the term "spiritual" has had all its meaning drained from it.

It is so heavily colored by the feminine that it refers to nothing more than feelings. As in "how do you feel?" "follow your feelings," and so forth. What is the heart of the spiritual is completely unknown or ignored.

The spiritual is where the intellect and the will reside. Feelings have very little to do with intellect. Likewise, the will, while certainly influenced by emotions and feelings, is meant to be guided by the intellect.

The spiritual is incorrectly understood to apply to your feelings and nothing more. However, the duty of the spiritual is to participate in religion, the worship of God.

But in this day and age, since the understanding of the spiritual is corrupted, so too is the duty of religion.

The faith weaves into the culture! (Remember, the root word of culture is "cult" — how this all weaves together is one of the major themes we hammer on here at CM, the relevance of the Faith.)

Accordingly, we are happy to reach into our video vault and re-present to many of you who have not seen it this episode of Right Reason, where we treat this very issue.

Church Militant has hundreds and hundreds of episodes of pure, straight-up theology, the most authentic presentation of the Faith you're likely to find in video format.

And now, let's begin with today's Vortex...

The construction of holiness and sin.

In a world where virtue seems like a lost commodity and vice rules the day, it's helpful to frame all of this from a Catholic lens. And when it comes to vice and virtue, it's a pretty simple lens.

For each of the vices, there is a corresponding virtue. The whole question of vices and virtues is pretty big today in the online world.

Let us show you this one, for example, tweeted by San Antonio Archbishop Gustavo García-Siller, a man who knows a little bit about the world of vices and needed virtues:

Some look for glory others for domination. Glory of merely human praise and anxious for good opinions. Those eager for domination act as beasts through cruelty or self indulgence. There are those who are virtuous worshiping the true God, finding God as the source of all good.

The next tweet is from a woman who calls herself an "epistemically violent housewife exposing communist psychospiritual dysfunction. Very happily married mom of 3. Anti-Narcissist":

People have been tricked into believing that narcissism is the same as honest self-reflection. So much monstrous behavior nowadays is framed as self-awareness, self-expression, or self-care. People have been taught that self-obsession is virtuous. They love it.

Whatever her religious persuasion, she has hit on something there in the world of vices and virtue.

But there isn't anything she's pointing to that doesn't already have much higher expression in the annals of the Catholic faith.

To this end, we are happy to reach into our video vault and re-present to many of you who have not seen it this episode of The Armor of God, dealing specifically with vice and virtue.

Church Militant has hundreds and hundreds of episodes of pure, straight-up theology, the most authentic presentation of the Faith you're likely to find in video format.

Actress speaks out against the demonic elements of entertainment.

The huge amounts of attention focused recently on the world elite and child sex trafficking and Epstein Island and sexual exploitation of young actors in the entertainment industry is serving to pull back the curtain on this evil.

A number of years ago, on our Premium program Mic'd Up, we tackled this horrible filth in an episode we called The Devil in Hollywood. It was and remains very popular.

This type of reporting is all part of our mission here at Church Militant.

When Church Militant was originally founded back in 2006, it was to help Catholics come to a greater love and appreciation of the Faith. That hasn't changed — at all.

Three years into that mission, we encountered massive evil and corruption in the hierarchy and quickly realized that evil — that lack of supernatural faith — was a detriment to people's embrace of the Faith, which itself results in evil advancing in the culture.

So we added to our already considerable theological arsenal news reporting and investigations like Mic'd Up to help people come to understand how the corruption of the hierarchy was impacting their own spirituality and contributing to an overall degradation of the culture.

We have thousands of hours and hundreds of episodes touching on practically every topic imaginable in the Faith, and our weekly show Mic'd Up is part of that impressive arsenal.

We highly encourage you to sign up. It's only $10 a month, and that gives you access to a vast storehouse not available anywhere else.

So in the spirit of our core mission, we are providing this episode for free to help you understand more concretely what the Church teaches.

Again, we highly encourage you to sign up today for direct access to all of our theological content.

World religions converging in Chicago.

Many of the world's religions will be gathering in the coming days to meet and discuss, more or less, the evils of the world and what can be done. Of course, which religion you belong to could certainly influence your view of what is evil and what is not.

But laying that aside for the moment, there is certainly nothing wrong with religions cooperating with each other to address hunger and disease and so forth — as long as nothing objectively immoral is employed in that work.

However, while compromise for a greater end is OK for natural issues, when it comes to the supernatural, there can be no compromise by Catholics.

For example, Catholic and Protestant Americans can certainly work together to fight abortion, but they cannot work together to make a watered-down version of Christianity more palatable. There is no such thing as "Christianity by committee."

In fact, strictly speaking, there is no such thing as Christianity outside of Catholicism. There is only One True Faith, and that Faith is the Catholic Faith.

There is only one Church. There is no such thing as a Protestant "church." The Son of God established a Church — not thousands. Men established all those breakaways. But God, Who is One, established one.

#Something Startling About Man and Sin | The Vortex

Church Militant (a 501(c)4 corporation) is responsible for the content of this commentary. If you also seek the truth, then please consider joining Church Militant today by supporting our work. Sign up for a Church Militant Premium account or simply make a donation. Feel free to contact Church Militant with your questions, comments, or concerns, at anytime. And now, let's begin with today's Vortex...

Explaining how venial sin and mortal sin destroy souls.

A vastly misunderstood teaching in Christianity regards sin — its severity, its means of being forgiven, what it actually is (mortal sin versus venial sin, for example).

When Church Militant was originally founded back in 2006, it was to help Catholics come to a greater love and appreciation of the Faith. That hasn't changed at all. Three years into that mission, we encountered massive evil and corruption in the hierarchy and quickly realized that evil (that lack of supernatural faith) was a detriment to people's embrace of the Faith.

So we added to our already considerable theological arsenal, news reporting and investigations to help people come to understand how the corruption of the hierarchy was impacting their own spiritual lives.

That said, we never want to waver from what I would call our "core programming," the direct theological content. That is always available through a Premium subscription — thousands of hours and hundreds of episodes touching on practically every topic imaginable in the Faith.

We highly encourage you to sign up. It's only $10 a month, and that gives you access to a vast storehouse not available anywhere else.

So in the spirit of our core mission, we are providing this episode on sin for free to help you understand more concretely what the Church teaches. Again, we highly encourage you to sign up today for direct access to all of our theological content.

Sola scriptura is a lie.

How does anyone know the Bible is inspired? The actual working of the Holy Spirit?

Not one single book in the Bible claims that of itself. So why do a couple billion Christians believe that (at least ostensibly)? There's only one reason. Very few people have actually thought more than 10 seconds about it.

When Church Militant was originally founded back in 2006, it was to help Catholics come to a greater love and appreciation of the Faith. That hasn't changed at all.

Protestants lie and mask the truth.

A major fallacy among those who call themselves "Christian" is the rather modern notion that once you're saved, you're always saved.

Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, it's not just not biblical; it's actually anti-biblical. Saint Paul says, among many things, "You have made a shipwreck of your faith," talking to Christians, Catholics actually, already baptized.

Remembering Our Blessed Mother's holy Assumption into Heaven.

Many of you know that Church Militant was originally founded back in 2006 to simply help Catholics (and anyone else) come to a greater love and appreciation of the Faith, to assist them in their spiritual journey.

Three years into that mission, we encountered massive evil and corruption in the hierarchy and quickly realized that evil, that lack of supernatural faith, was a detriment to people's embrace of the Faith. So we added to our already considerable theological arsenal, news reporting and investigations to help people come to understand how the corruption of the hierarchy was impacting their own spiritual lives.

That said, we never want to waver from what I would call our "core programming," the direct theological content. That is always available through a Premium subscription — thousands of hours and hundreds of episodes touching on practically every topic imaginable in the Faith.

We highly encourage you to sign up. It's only $10 per month and that gives you access to a vast storehouse not available anywhere else.

For example, today is the Solemnity of the Assumption of Our Lady. So we'd like to use this occasion to point to one of our multiple programs on the Blessed Mother. We are providing this episode for free, but again, highly encourage you to sign up today for direct access to all of our theological content.

Predators deserve the millstone treatment.

The currently sitting archbishop of New Orleans, Gregory Aymond, is a monster who should be publicly removed with great fanfare and paraded through the streets of New Orleans.

This is said in the spirit of the words of the Son of God, who acclaimed, "It is impossible that scandals should not come. But woe to him through whom they come! It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck and he cast into the sea, than that he should scandalize one of these little ones" (Luke 17:1–2).

So egregious is it to harm a child that this is the only instance in the Gospels where Our Blessed Lord actually attaches a specific penalty to a specific sin. And yet, new developments reveal that Aymond has done just that, being "him through whom the scandals come."

He certainly isn't alone in the crowded field of lying, cheating, children-of-Satan bishops who have made their careers over the devastated psyches and even corpses of sexually abused, molested and raped children.

But then again, Aymond has had the misfortune — from his point of view — of having his sins revealed in various documents from the New Orleans archdiocese bankruptcy filings.

In that mountain of paper a series of letters and texts have been unearthed by reporters at The Guardian newspaper, which were compiled in a nearly 50-page memorandum from attorneys representing abuse victims.

It outlines the cases of a half-dozen priests whom Aymond's own sex abuse board found credibly accused and made recommendations to remove or sideline from ministry and have their names added to the diocesan list of credibly accused molesters.

Yet Aymond simply disregarded his own board's recommendations and never said a word about these clerics.

It's got to be Catholicism and nothing else!

Have you ever wondered why the Left is always able to advance its cause while so-called conservatism always struggles and generally loses? The reality is the Left always wins — it's just a matter of speed. And the Right always loses — it's just a matter of speed.

Sometimes it seems like the good guys are holding true, maybe even getting a little bit ahead, but that's almost always because the Left is just catching its breath between victories.

The reasons for this are straight-up simple. The Right has never gotten its act together when it comes to God, religion and morality. There are way too many variations on the theme, too many competing opinions.

And since morality is upstream from culture, and politics flows from culture; if you don't have unanimity on morality and God, good luck preserving a culture. On the other hand, the Left is unanimous in its antipathy toward God, religion and morality.

So, bottom line, they are united and conservatives are not. And most especially, the question of unity (or lack of it) all boils down to the supernatural. Conservatives, in order to try and sidestep the obvious disunity, simply ignore anything and everything specific about God.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

If you needed any proof that the money-racket machine the U.S. bishops are running is decidedly Marxist and they have no intentions of reforming, just look at what happened recently at Catholic Charities.

For the record, Catholic Charities is the bishop-run group that collects enormous sums of taxpayer money to destabilize the southern border of the United States by spiriting in illegal aliens by the millions, and then shipping them all over the country with your tax dollars.

In fact, the anti-American leftist organization is so corrupt in its anti-American activities that it's become the target of a congressional investigation by Republicans in the U.S. House — that's bad.

In a letter to Catholic Charities, the congressmen said,

We write to express our deep concerns with the growing role non-governmental organizations (NGOs) play in fueling the drastic increase in illegal aliens crossing the southern border. While Americans suffer the consequences of the unprecedented chaos at the border, NGOs continue to profit off of exploiting our immigration laws. ...

Next Congress, we will continue to investigate your organization's role in facilitating the border crisis, your potential violations of federal law, and your misuse of taxpayer funds. We are notifying you that Catholic Charities is required to preserve all information related to any expenditures submitted for reimbursement from the federal government related to migrants encountered at the southern border.

This was not the first letter they had sent to Catholic Charities.
