POPE PlUS XI UNDERWENT THE INFLUENCE OF THE PROGRESSIVE WING Pope Pius XI himself fell under the influence of the progressives who were already present in Rome. For we see a distinct difference from the Popes before and after. But nevertheless Pope Pius XI at the same time wrote some magnificent encyclicals. He was not a liberal. "Divini Redemptoris," his encyclical against Communism was magnificent. So also was his encyclical on Christ the King, which established the feast of Christ The King and proclaimed the Social Kingship of Our Lord Jesus Christ. His encyclical on Christian Education is absolutely admirable and remains today a fundamental document for those who defend Catholic schools. If on the level of doctrine Pope Pius XI was an admirable man, he was weak in the order of practical action. He was easily influenced. It is thus that he was very strongly influenced at the time of the Mexican Civil War and gave the Cristeros, who were in the process of defending the Catholic religion and combating for Christ the King, the order to have confidence in the government and to put down their arms. As soon as they had put down their arms they were all massacred. This horrifying massacre is still remembered today in Mexico. Pope Pius XI placed confidence in the government who deceived him. Afterwards, he was visibly very upset. He could not imagine how a government, which had promised to treat with honor those who defended their Faith, could have then gone on to massacre them. Thus thousands of Mexicans were killed on account of their Faith. Already at the beginning of this century we find certain situations, which announce a division in the Church. Slowly we arrived at it, but the division was very definite just before the council.

If you do pray one tonight I ask you to please pray for my father's soul as he passes on. I am happy because he smelt fire for a while, then he said the smell changed, I asked him if it was roses and he looked me straight in the eyes and said "Yes, I smell roses!" The Blessed Virgin Mother was here. She is taking my father to be in paradise.

Commentary on the last chapter

Camp of the Saints by Jean Raspail Ch 33

Every man who can be swayed by pain and terror is a slave. Every man who can be tempted is a slave. Every man whose pride can be manipulated is a slave. As such all are born slaves and nearly as many die slaves. The Saint, who by a powerful grace from God only fears God and is servant to God alone, he is the most free of all men and the most competent soldier to fight for any cause. I don’t trust the leadership of any man who is without God.

Christ is the genius of love. He is the greatest and most tragic person who ever lived on earth. - Dr. Joseph Goebbels “Michael” https://antelopehillpublishing.com/product/michael-by-dr-joseph-goebbels/

Happy Easter everyone, thank you Lord for the blessings and for the burdens which make us stronger. Most of all for the sacrifice you made so that we might enjoy blissful unity with you in eternity. Keep us in your grace Lord.

Christ’s goal was clear and simple: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” He gathered his followers behind that straightforward statement. Because this teaching was simple, crisp, clear, and understandable, enabling the broad masses to stand behind it, it in the end conquered the world. I am a Christian when I believe that the meaning of my life is the heavy responsibility to love my neighbor as myself. Kant once said: “Act as if the principle of your life could be the principle for your entire nation.” I am a National Socialist not when I want this or that from politics, rather when I consider all aspects of daily life. I must act in all things by putting the good of the whole above my personal good, by putting the good of the state above my personal good. The state needs a worldview. Christianity also conquered the state, and in the moment that it conquered the state it began to carry out practical political activity. -Dr Joseph Goebbels Excerpted from a 1928 Joseph Goebbels’ speech: “Knowledge and Propaganda.
