Recently, I posted a link discussing a Catholic view of astrology. Please note I DO NOT, nor would I ever, hold the same view as witches and pagans. As Catholics, we don’t ascribe power to the stars in the sky, but rather view them as part of God’s Creation. After all, He used the stars…

On the upcoming solar eclipse
In case you missed it, on April 8 (the feast of the Annunciation this year since March 25 falls during Holy Week), there will be a solar eclipse that crosses the United States from south to north. I feel compelled to comment on this as many Protestants and New Agers have globbed onto this event…
FDA issues another “emergency use authorization”
Yes, the Big Bad COVID Boogie Man is still being used as a tool for the FDA to bypass clinical trials and long term studies. Yesterday, the FDA extended emergency use authorization to a new monoclonal antibody for prevention of COVID infection in severely immunocompromised patients – like those with blood cancers and organ transplant…
More “safe and effective” from your FDA
Opill, the first OTC birth control pill, began online sales Monday and will soon be available at retailers like Walgreens and CVS. Yes, women can now acquire oral contraceptives without a prescription since Opill was approved by the FDA in July. So far, there are no age restrictions that I’m aware of. This means your…
Just like the JFK assassination and 9/11, each March will bring the question “where were you”
Where were you four years ago, when the world shut down? What were you doing when the announcement came that we needed to stay home to “flatten the curve,” just for 14 days? I was at work, watching Trump, flanked by Fauci and Birx, make the announcement in live TV. My jaw was on the…
St Joseph, Terror of Demons, pray for us
Tomorrow is the feast of St Joseph, who, tradition tells us, was heartbroken at the slaughter of innocents as he fled with Our Blessed Lord and Our Lady into Egypt. And so, it seems fitting that in his feast day, a congressional hearing will take place on the topic of fetal body parts trafficking. David…
One last glimpse of Our Lord before Passiontide & Holy Week
Today is Passion Sunday, and that means the Veil of Veronica made its annual appearance. Onlookers and pilgrims were blessed to see the image of Our Lord’s Holy Face Folks, this is the devotion of our time (along with Fatima). Do you want to see an end to the global communist coup? Then this devotion…
Talking $h!t
I’ve followed this physician and her writings about bifido bacterium for awhile. I think what she’s saying is quite interesting. I also think the human immune system is more complex than we realize; I’m willing to bet our understanding of it barely scratches the surface. But what we do know for certain is that our…
The GOP finds itself in a conundrum
By now, it’s obvious that the Republican Party is not the vanguard of morality. But the recent decision of the Alabama Supreme Court to regard human embryos as unborn children has provided another exhibition of the GOP’s double-speak. First, let’s give some background: IVF might be noble in its intentions. Infertility is a very heavy…
Today is the feast of The Holy Face of Jesus
Arise O Lord, and let Thy enemies be scattered. And let all that hate Thee flee from before Thy Face. Psalm 67:2
