Great video, Matthew and Gladius! 

Yes, all the rot came via different media. The Canadian Catholic philosopher Matthew McLuhan said, "the medium is the message."

As the technology of the media gets more advanced our cognition, as he pointed out, gets affected. 

Let's start with ancient and medieval times. The mind of both the producer and reader were engaged in the materials used to spread information. Then came the printing press during the Renaissance. It was cheaper by comparison to what came before, but the risk was a too rapid dissemination of ideas. Hence, the Protestant revolt. 

Later on, industrialization and the telegraph made it easier to make it too convenient to spread information to foster immoral political strategies and maneuvers. 

Then comes the telephone. Peace and quiet are more at risk to be disturbed. 

Motion pictures are developed and can give cause for distortion of the imagination. The phonograph and radio could have done the same thing but not as much due to the lack of visuals.

The television then arrives, making distraction for frequent and accessible.

The internet then in turn with its usage on computers and cellphones tops them all with constant distraction and disturbance of the mind.

Crisis in the Church / Re: Novus Ordo Indicators
« Last post by AMDGJMJ on Today at 06:23:56 AM »
The great hurdles it seems that are difficult to overcome to bring people to Catholicism and away from the Novus Ordo are particular devotions and those who are regarded as saints or examples to follow. Who come to mind are John Paul II, Benedict XVI, and Mother Teresa as well as the Divine Mercy devotion. It is hard to convince anyone to look past the appearance of niceness and piety in these cases. Also, there is apparent cohesiveness.

Any thoughts?

I will admit that it is hard for me now to be around pictures of such Novus Ordo persons or devotions, but by the grace of God I hold back. I pray for Leo and the local Novus Ordo prelate to convert though.
Someone once explained to me that the modern "Divine Mercy" devotion of Sister Faustina was meant to replace the devotion to the Sacred Heart and take way from the Octave of Easter.  That was enough to help me stop the "Divine Mercy" devotion.   Though I would like to clarify that there is an older more ancient (non-sister Faustina) devotion to the Divine Mercy of God which was actual actually approved by the Church prior to Vatican II.

Then the "Luminous Mysteries"...  They were not given by Our Lady and Our Lady isn't even really included in several of the mysteries.   And...  If you add the Luminous mysteries the rosary no longer lines up with the Palms and can no longer be legitimately called "Our Lady's Psalter".

These things being said...  I have found that most people don't want to be told the truth unless they ask questions.  So, I just pray and wait for people to ask.  :popcorn:

Yes, Roncalli set up the stage, and the spark was ignited by Montini. Luciani barely got a chance if at all. Wojtyla solidified and spread it. Ratzinger slowed it down and deceived. Bergoglio sped up the train aggressively. Prevost keeps it going even faster more covertly.

I checked this morning - here is real time silver chart and it is up, but the way that guy talked I thought it would have doubled or something by now.

Another good video on the silver issue, goes into other markets as well for example oil, and two brief mention of the Jews and Freemasons.
The speaker, Francis, seems to have a decent grasp on who's behind it all and what Jews intend to do to us.
