You're right that the relative freedom we have -- only because of our immense size -- has allowed a few pockets of sedevacantism to grow.  Still, this doesn't exactly make me want to burst into patriotic song.

You say you don't like the leaders we have now.  To which I respond, now?!  What's the difference?  Surely you know that all Presidents were either freemasons like Washington, or atheists like Lincoln.   These men were mere stepping stones to Obama.  In fact, they are more insidious, because at least his communism is overt and easy to be called out for what it is.

I just find it very hard to be patriotic knowing that young men were drafted and sent off to die and possibly be damned in the Jєωιѕн world wars.  It's incredibly disturbing to me that even in the sedevacantist groups you have people who are in the Army, Air Force or whatever, because under no circuмstances could the Iraq War be called a "just war" by the Catholic standard.   The "democracy" of America is a soft communism.  We have always been on the communist side of things, helping the Jєωs in World War II instead of the Catholic Polish, for instance.

The Catholic Church cannot be revitalized with half-truths.  It must be with whole truths.  America is not something to be proud of except despite itself.  That is a way to get hooked into further false beliefs, such as those who thought they were dying for God in World War II.

By the way, I don't support the nαzι side, I am Polish and we have been smashed and shattered by the nαzιs as well as Communists.  I just wish people would pay more attention to the spiderweb the devil is spinning and how he tries to control every side, so they can free themselves from illusion.  Catholic Island is the way to go.

Speaking of Poland -- I like Father Trytek's movement.  Maybe I will leave the country after all.
