Pope Francis--deliberately cruel? Insecure? Misled?

Why is he restricting the traditional Catholic Latin mass? The World Over program Thursday Dec. 16, 2021.  Treating the old rite like a virus.  It has been flourishing, why is he squelching it when Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI approved it?  Why are some Catholics treated like second class citizens?

PETER KWASNIEWSKI, senior fellow at The St. Paul Center in Steubenville, OH, and FR. GERALD MURRAY, canon lawyer and priest of the Archdiocese of NY discuss new instructions expected from the Vatican on the implementation Pope Francis' moto proprio on the Traditional Latin Mass. The World Over with Raymond Arroyo airs on EWTN Thursdays at 8pm ET. It re-airs on Fridays at 1am & 9:30am ET, and Mondays at 10pm ET.

This reminds me of another situation.  An old man with unpopular views in charge of a huge organization, but everyone wonders who is pulling the string?

Why we shouldn't use the China model

Biden's cozy with China, but it isn't in good shape even though we seem to be using it as a model.

China has a birth dearth--also too few women. Only a few countries have abortion laws as gruesome and destructive as ours, and China is one of them. In the USA, motherhood and womanhood is being demeaned and destroyed (pregnant persons) by the trans agenda.

China has too few workers, and too few young people to fund retirement and pension plans. In the USA, we pay people to stay out of the work force and kill pensions with raging inflation.

China is killing off its millionaires and billionaires. Literally. As in dead. Our Congress is just trying to tax them out of existence.

 
China is experiencing a fossil fuel shortage and many may freeze or starve to death.

China wants to wipe out Taiwan, a democracy. We're destroying ours from within by electing the radical left wing of the Democrat party.

Xi is a devoted Communist. We should learn from him. China is at war with the USA and has been for decades.

How churches benefit from the refugee crisis

I'm aware this isn't a popular viewpoint, but just as government funding for Planned Parenthood for "women's health services" allows them to carry on abortions at our expense, government assistance to churches to resettle refugees and immigrants allows the churches to carry on their primary work of evangelization, education, caring for the poor, etc. and still technically follow Jesus' words in Matthew 25. Catholics, Lutherans, Presbyterians, UCC, Baptists, Methodists, Mennonites, and various religious non-profits all take money from the government for their "good works." Being an arm of the federal government may not open any doors in heaven. Where immigration is the topic, I believe churches should keep quiet until they are funding their resettlement ministries with the church's money and their own volunteers.

You'll find some things at "Refugee Resettlement Watch" website harsh to read, but it's the fastest way to figure out which churches (called Volags) get what and how much money they get per refugee (Hint: .more than their costs). It's a starting point to do your own research.

I heard Raymond Arroyo (EWTN) on Fox and Friends today say that the USCCB receives millions to resettle refugees and he sees it as a problem. One of Obama's favorites was a Baptist (in name) charity that received about $280 million in 2014. It's a huge conflict of interest, a Faustian bargain, for churches to get trapped this way. You have to dance with the one who brung you. Obama doubled the in-take of refugees in one year, and now that Trump wants to return it to normal (about 50,000) the churches that contract to resettle refugees are upset.

Several years ago we contributed to Glenn Beck's effort to resettle 149 Iraqi Christians (speakers of Aramaic, the language of Jesus)  in Slovakia.  I checked current news and about 20 of the older members of the group went back to Iraq because they couldn't adjust.
