Attack a great patriot who is finally standing up to British Imperialism and driving the planters out. Good one.
Some of the best land in Ireland is still occupied by huge planter farms.
I wish our leaders had Robert Mugabe's guts.

Im no fan at all of the British Empire... *spit*.... but at least they stopped their subordinates from killing and eating each other.

Good article.

Mugabe has seized farms and isntead of looking toward the Taiwan Tiller program as a possiblity, turned the land over to rapists/muderers and by and by, lazy thugs with no farming knowledge....hence wasted farms, no productivity....
How the land could have been worked out:

Many vocations are coming out of Africa, (Asia too). So, the wheat grows among the cockle, just as Our Lord told us it would.
Matthew 13:26 And when the blade was sprung up, and had brought forth fruit, then appeared also the cockle. 27 And the servants of the goodman of the house coming said to him: Sir, didst thou not sow good seed in thy field? whence then hath it cockle? 28 And he said to them: An enemy hath done this. And the servants said to him: Wilt thou that we go and gather it up? 29 And he said: No, lest perhaps gathering up the cockle, you root up the wheat also together with it. 30 Suffer both to grow until the harvest, and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers: Gather up first the cockle, and bind it into bundles to burn, but the wheat gather ye into my barn.

I was told that the many vocations coming out of Africa are not true callings but that the priesthood is attractive to them because it is a way out of their poverty.

But don't know if that is actually true, though.

I don't know. However I do believe that often poor people are very devoted and religious people, because they have fewer materialistic distractions than the rich do.

In my limited experience, most Catholic orientals are either very religious or very worldy. I am trying to be the former. :smirk:

Rather, once you've converted, pray that your leaders convert also, and then they will be unstoppable, as they will have the hosts of Heaven for their army and God for their General.

Idolizing the satanic murderer Robert Mgabe is sick.

"once after the seige of a primitive land, imperialists were trying to kill a native. They tied him to a tree and sent a priest to accompany him in his last breath.
The priest came to him and said:"believe in my God Jesus and you will go to heaven."
The native man said:" and those who believe in him go to heaven?'
-"yes"
-"and those who invaded us and took our lands will go to heaven."
-"yes"
-"then I won't believe in Him, and don't like to go to any place where these plunderers are present."
Get rid of that obsession with western civilization and may be many asians will believe in Jesus, being convicted that you want their salvation, not their lands, oil etc.
