Deady "Cures" for Non-Deadly Diseases

Although I was very skeptical about then President-elect Donald John Trump’s decision to appoint Robert Francis Kennedy, Jr., principally because of his longtime support for the daily genocide of innocent preborn children by chemical and surgical means (see “The mission of HHS is to enhance the health and well-being of all Americans, and this includes the unborn.”), as the Secretary of the United States Department of Health and Human Services, and did not think that he would be able to survive a power struggle with White House Chief of Staff Susan Summerall Wiles, who is very much a creature of Big Pharma, events have proven my skepticism to have been misplaced, although I do not believe that my concerns were unfounded.

It has only been in recent weeks that Secretary Kennedy has begun to exercise something approaching effective control over the sprawling bureaucratic behemoth that had its origins in 1953 as the United States Department of Health, Education, and Welfare to gather the various alphabet agencies created between Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s election in 1932 and the end of Harry S. Truman’s administration on January 20, 1953—twenty solid years of Federal social engineering, before assuming its current name in 1979 when Congress created the Department of Education at the behest of then President James Earl Carter, Jr. Kennedy has been a mission in recent weeks, including his supervision of the process that led the Food and Drug Administration, which is under the authority of the Department of Health and Human Services, to rescind the so-called “emergency use authorization of the Wuhan Virus vaccines:

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), under the leadership of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., revoked emergency use authorizations for the COVID-19 shots, including the experimental mRNA jabs.

The emergency use authorizations (EUA) for Covid vaccines, once used to justify broad mandates on the general public during the Biden administration, are now rescinded,” Kennedy announced Wednesday on X.

Instead, the FDA has issued “marketing authorization” for those who meet a minimum risk threshold for the following mRNA “vaccines”: Moderna (6+ months), Pfizer (5+), and Novavax (12+), Kennedy shared. 

“These vaccines are available for all patients who choose them after consulting with their doctors,” the HHS Secretary explained.

He pointed out that this decision was the result of his pledge to accomplish the following four things as head of HHS: “end covid vaccine mandates, keep vaccines available to people who want them, especially the vulnerable, demand placebo-controlled trials from companies,” and “end the emergency.”

The repeal of the COVID “vaccine” EUA is long overdue considering that former President Joe Biden ended the COVID-19 “national emergency” in April 2023, about seven months after Biden admitted to 60 Minutes that the COVID-19 “pandemic” was “over.”

A large, growing body of evidence shows that the experimental mRNA shots were dangerous to human health in a wide variety of ways and caused deaths at a rate far exceeding usual safety standards for vaccines. As Dr. Mary Talley Bowden, an ear, nose and throat specialist in Houston, Texas, explained to Tucker Carlson in April:

Normally, the FDA will put a black box warning on a medication if there have been five deaths. They will pull it off the market if there have been 50. Well, according to VAERS, (the) Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System – and it’s vastly under-reported, which I have seen firsthand – there have been 38,000 deaths from these COVID shots.

That number has since increased according to the federal Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), which now reports 38,742 deaths, 221,113 hospitalizations, 22,346 heart attacks, and 28,995 cases of myocarditis and pericarditis due to the COVID shot as of July 25, among other ailments. 

Despite the outrageously high number of reported deaths due to the COVID shots – which were produced in a fraction of the time ordinarily required to bring a vaccine to market – instead of pulling the shots, the FDA “doubled down” on them, Bowden noted, including by placing them on the childhood vaccine schedule. However, under Kennedy, the CDC has since removed the COVID mRNA shot recommendation for healthy children and pregnant women.

CDC Director Susan Monarez was fired from her position the same day the EUA repeal was announced.

“Susan Monarez is no longer director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. We thank her for her dedicated service to the American people. @SecKennedy has full confidence in his team at @CDCgov who will continue to be vigilant in protecting Americans against infectious diseases at home and abroad,” the HHS X account wrote Wednesday. (RFK Jr. revokes emergency use authorization for COVID shots.)

Susan Monarez is one of a large number of so-called “experts” who continue to reject the fact that the Wuhan Virus jabs, which are immoral to begin with as they are derived from the cells of aborted babies (and, no, the immorality of their use is not lessened by the remoteness in time as to when the babies were killed, something that I covered six years, five months ago in Antipapal Appointees Always Advance Antichrist’s Anti-Catholic Agenda), have killed thousands upon thousands of people in the United States and around the world and continue to cause injuries and chronic health problems, especially regard myocarditis and other coronary problems that have been documented on this site repeatedly since the jabs were first made available in December of 2020 and a seventy-five year-old man in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, New York, dropped dead on the spot just fifteen minutes after getting jabbed at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.

President Donald John Trump should never appointed Susan Monarez to replace his first nominee, Dr. David Weldon, who ran afoul of Big Pharma’s Senator William Cassidy (R-Louisiana) and the pro-abortion Senator Susan Collins (R-Maine). This is what I wrote when Monarez was nominated four months ago:

As a brief aside before continuing, the bureaucrats at the CDC do not seem to grasp that directors are supposed to follow their president’s directives, not “resist” them, which is, of course, another proof that career civil servants believe that it is their duty to do what they want and not what a president they despise orders to be done.

Putting that observation side, however, the fact remains that Dr. Susan Monarez is another vaccine maniac who will parrot all the lies of Big Pharma when it comes to “vaccines” of any type and when it comes to approve of the latest pharmaceutical product that is designed to create problems to justify the development of even more pharmaceutical products to treat the side-effects created by some “miracle cure” its hawkers had promoted only a short while previously. It is business-as-usual at the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and that means more “vaccines,” more drugs, and more phony “guidelines” and medical “protocols” to deal with various disease outbreaks. Dr. Monarez’s nomination also means she will redouble efforts to promote “organ donation,” which is nothing other than human vivisection in the case of vital human organs, as she is a promoter of the modern body-snatching industry. Yes, it is business-as-usual at CDC.

Susan Monarez was fully intent on doing everything I had summarized in Sober Up in 2025, part two, April 11, 2025, as four other vaccine, transgender and pro-abortion maniacs noted when they resigned as soon as Secretary Kennedy demanded Monarez’s own resignation, which she at first refused to do until the White House backed Kennedy, meaning that Kennedy trumped Susan Summerall Wiles insofar as presidential decision-making on Monarez was concerned:

U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said today on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends,” reported by The Hill, that he is “not surprised” by the upheaval at the CDC following yesterday’s firing of the agency’s director.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) “is in trouble, and we need to fix it — and we are fixing it — and it may be that some people should not be working there anymore,” Kennedy said.

The White House confirmed late Wednesday that CDC Director Susan Monarez was fired after Kennedy tried to force her resignation and she refused to leave, The New York Times reported.

Four other CDC officials then resigned, citing their frustration with Kennedy’s leadership.

Monarez, confirmed by the U.S. Senate less than a month ago, reportedly clashed with Kennedy over changes in vaccine policy, according to The Washington Post, which first broke the story.

The agency needs “strong leadership” that will “be able to execute on President Trump’s broad ambitions,” Kennedy told Fox News.

Kennedy also said the CDC has placed too great an emphasis on water fluoridation, vaccines and abortion.

In an interview on Steve Bannon’s “War Room” this morning, Children’s Health Defense CEO Mary Holland said the Monarez conflict marked a “threshold moment,” especially given the pharma-backed mainstream response to recent moves at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) that demonstrate the battle over vaccine policy is heating up.

In a statement, Holland also said:

What is clear from the past 24 hours is that there was a lack of alignment between the CDC director and the administration. From what we know, director Monarez did not want to implement the president’s and secretary’s agenda, and, as expected when a political appointee does not follow the administration they serve, she was dismissed. Her termination, along with the resignations of the others, is a liberation for the CDC.

The agency’s mission is to serve the public, but for the last two decades, it has served the pharmaceutical industry at the expense of public health. We are hopeful that the new leadership chosen by Secretary Kennedy and the president will return the agency to its original mission and restore the public’s trust.”

Former Biden administration CDC officials, including Dr. Mandy Cohen, who last ran the agency, lamented the news of the top officials’ departures, saying it would weaken the CDC.

In a post on X, Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.), chairman of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions committee and a strong pro-vaccine advocate, said the latest shake-up “will require oversight” by the committee.

Dismissal came after days-long standoff between Kennedy, Monarez

HHS announced on X Wednesday afternoon that Monarez had been removed from her

position.

The agency thanked Monarez for “her dedicated service to the American people.” It also said Kennedy “has full confidence in his team at @CDCgov who will continue to be vigilant in protecting Americans against infectious diseases at home and abroad.”

Hours later, Monarez’s lawyers responded. They said Monarez had not resigned or been fired. They also challenged Kennedy’s authority to remove her because she had been confirmed by the Senate and served at the discretion of the president.

The lawyers said Kennedy was “weaponizing public health for political gain and putting millions of American lives at risk.”

Monarez’s attorneys are Mark Zaid, whose security clearance was revoked by Trump, and Abbe Lowell, who represented Hunter Biden and Lisa Cook, the Federal Reserve board member in Trump’s crosshairs.

The Times quoted an unnamed official who said Kennedy asked Monarez to resign on Monday. When she refused, he demanded she remove the agency’s top leadership by the end of the week, according to the Times.

Monarez reportedly appealed to Cassidy for intervention. Cassidy had cast a key vote in Kennedy’s confirmation after receiving Kennedy’s assurance that he would not dismantle the nation’s vaccine safety systems.

The White House confirmed late Wednesday that Monarez was fired because she is “not aligned with the president’s agenda of Making America Healthy Again.”

The four other senior officials who subsequently resigned are the director of the CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Disease and Biden administration mpox czar Dr. Demetre Daskalakis; Dr. Debra Houry, deputy director and chief medical officer of the CDC; Dr. Daniel Jernigan, director of the National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases who had been involved with the agency’s anthrax, swine flu and COVID-19 responses; and Dr. Jennifer Layden, who led the Office of Public Health Data, Surveillance, and Technology.

The Times reported that emails to colleagues about their resignations echoed the accusations made by Monarez’s lawyers.

Monarez defended mRNA vaccines as ‘safe and with demonstrated efficacy’ 

In March, Trump nominated Monarez for director of the CDC, where she had served as acting director until her nomination.

Monarez was the first CDC director confirmed under a law passed in 2023 that requires Senate confirmation for the position. She was also the first person, in more than 70 years, without a medical degree to serve in the role.

Trump nominated Monarez after withdrawing the nomination of Dr. Dave Weldon, who reportedly failed to secure enough votes because of comments he made suggesting a possible link between autism and vaccines.

Monarez, a biosecurity veteran, was previously deputy director of the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H), an agency within HHS created by the Biden administration to accelerate “high-risk, high-reward” biomedical research.

ARPA-H is modeled after the U.S. military’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).

Monarez also previously held positions with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.

During her confirmation hearing before the Senate committee last month, Monarez affirmed her belief that “vaccines save lives,” and pledged to prioritize vaccine availability. She said mRNA vaccines are “safe and with demonstrated efficacy,” and she said she was unaware of any confirmed scientific link between vaccines and autism.

HHS did not respond to a request for comment.

Kennedy’s autism and vaccine announcements made news this week

On Wednesday, Kennedy announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration revoked the emergency use authorization for the COVID-19 mRNA shots, but also authorized the shots for people ages 6 months and older at higher risk for illness from COVID-19.

On Tuesday, Kennedy said during a Trump administration Cabinet meeting that his agency is on track to announce the findings of an ongoing study on the causes of autism next month.

“We’re finding interventions, certain interventions now that are clearly almost certainly causing autism, and we’re going to be able to address those in September,” Kennedy said.

Last week, HHS sent a letter warning West Virginia that it could lose $1.37 billion in federal health funding if the state’s health departments don’t follow laws recognizing religious freedom — including religious exemptions to childhood vaccination.

Also last week, the heads of public health departments from every New England state except New Hampshire, along with health officials in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania, attended a two-day meeting in Providence, Rhode Island, to discuss coordinating their own vaccine recommendations to circumvent recent and possible future changes made by federal public health agencies.

Earlier this month, two doctors who lost their medical licenses because they questioned the CDC’s vaccine recommendations for children filed a landmark lawsuit against the agency for failing to test the cumulative effect of the 72-dose schedule on children’s health.

Holland said that it was unclear whether an acting director will be named. (Trump Fires CDC Director Who Clashed With RFK Jr. Over Vaccine Policy. Also see Unmasking CDC Corruption: RFK's Battle to Reform Public Health.)

Many of the apparatchiks in the nooks and crannies of the so-called public health establishment are as arrogant as the sociopathic Anthony “I am the science” Fauci, believing that they are immune, pun intended, from the direction given them by elected officials and the political appointees who have direct supervision over their work. In other words, these bureaucrats believe themselves to have been “vaccinated” against the “infections” caused by political appointees who are intent upon implementing policies that are based on true science and not ideology.

Consider the arrogance of Demetre Daskalakis, whose resignation letter is replete with self-piteous invocations of “expertise” at risk from alleged “eugenicists” who doubt the efficacy of vaccines and who are even opposed to children being given drugs in the ontologically and biologically impossible effort to “change” their sex:

When Demetre Daskalakis resigned as Director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases at CDC, his letter to leadership carried a tone of finality and moral conviction. “Enough is enough,” he declared, explaining that Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s leadership had made it impossible for him to continue. The letter has been praised as principled, but when read closely it is less a defense of science than a portrait of the very rhetorical habits that drove the public away from CDC in the first place: appeals to authority, catastrophic predictions, ad hominem attacks, and factual distortions.

Consider his charge that he can no longer serve in an environment that “treats CDC as a tool to generate policies and materials that do not reflect scientific reality and are designed to hurt rather than to improve the public’s health.”

This is a false dichotomy. It frames the choice as binary: either one accepts CDC’s “scientific reality,” or one is accused of designing policies to harm. Yet the last five years have shown what most Americans already know: what CDC has called “science” has often been neither transparent nor replicable, but political judgment dressed in a white coat

He accuses the new HHS of narrative enforcement, when, in reality, CDC has become infamous for the same partly on his watch. Lockdowns, school closures, and vaccine mandates were not the inevitable products of neutral science — they were policy choices, frequently contradicted by the very data the CDC refused to release. Kennedy did not cause that collapse of trust. Power overreach and failed policy did.

Still, Daskalakis appeals to institutional sanctity: “unvetted and conflicted outside organizations seem to be the sources HHS use over the gold standard science of CDC.” But the claim that CDC represents “gold standard science” rings hollow. The agency’s failures are well documented: contaminated Covid tests that delayed early detection, failure to use standard qRT-PCR to control for false positives, shifting guidance on masks that left the public whiplashed, withheld vaccine safety data buried in VAERS and VSD, and FOIA evasions that stonewalled independent scrutiny. To describe this record as “gold standard science” is an appeal to authority wholly unsupported by the evidence.

The catastrophism in his letter is striking but rings hollow. He warns that Kennedy’s policies will “bring us to a pre-vaccine era where only the strong will survive and many if not all will suffer.” He’s pretending that Kennedy has said he wants no vaccines for anyone. This is a combined fallacy: false dichotomy and slippery slope. Questioning the safety of excipients, the timing, number, or necessity of vaccines does not condemn the country to Darwinian misery. 

In fact, mortality from infectious diseases like measles, pertussis, and diphtheria had already declined long before mass vaccination, thanks to sanitation, nutrition, and reduced exposure to livestock reservoirs. The fact of loss of protection due to waning immunity is not found in his resignation. Balanced debate about risks and benefits does not mean “returning to the dark ages.” It means practicing science as it should be — open, skeptical, and transparent and will full accountability on scientific claims.

At points, the rhetoric becomes openly hostile. ACIP members are dismissed as “people of dubious intent and more dubious scientific rigor,” and Kennedy himself is cast as an “authoritarian leader.” These are ad hominem attacks, not arguments. They dismiss individuals rather than engage with data or reasoning.

I’ve worked with Secretary Kennedy long enough to know him as a sensitive, thoughtful, non-reactionary, considerate leader. He is so considerate it can at times nearly irk his underlings who would like to see him come to decisions faster. But that’s because they have already made up their minds. Kennedy works arbitrarily and uses contrarianism – debate, adversarial set-ups – to hammer out the details until the description of a problem and its solution fits the mold. I’ve never heard of anyone spun out of his orbit for doing due diligence-based dissent. Meanwhile, Daskalakis pines for the old “following the leader” model of authoritarian “trust the science” CDC. Those days are gone.

The gravest claim in the letter is that “eugenics plays prominently in the rhetoric being generated.” Daskalakis gives us no quotations, policies, or documents. Sometimes words just sound right when one is upset, I suppose. Ironically, the accusation is not only unsubstantiated but inverted. Kennedy has consistently warned against coercive health policies and corporate capture, both of which he argues worsen inequality. To portray his emphasis on transparency and medical freedom as eugenics is a straw man — a distortion intended to silence rather than to debate.

Daskalakis goes further, blaming Kennedy for violence: “I am resigning because of the cowardice of a leader that cannot admit that his and his minions’ words over decades created an environment where violence like this can occur.”

This refers to a shooting at CDC. Again, no hint of evidence has been offered by Daskalakis or anyone else to connect Kennedy’s words to the crime. It is a post hoc fallacy, exploiting tragedy to smear a political opponent. It’s shameless and ripens the fruit of his letter to rot.

Perhaps most jarring is his claim that Kennedy’s HHS has sought to “erase transgender populations, cease critical domestic and international HIV programming, and terminate key research to support equity.”

The rhetoric here is catastrophic, baseless, and false. In reality, under Dr. Jay Bhattacharya’s leadership, the NIH has made HIV a top research priority. Far from “ceasing HIV programming,” Kennedy’s administration has pledged to tackle the epidemic with fresh eyes, free from the pharmaceutical capture that distorted earlier approaches. To suggest otherwise is not just hyperbole; it is disinformation.

Daskalakis also insists he has “always been first to challenge scientific dogma.” His self-nomination as a leader in this activity is again unsupported by evidence. Did Daskalakis speak up when Moderna and Pfizer inflated their efficacy estimates? Did Daskalakis write a letter of complaint when CDC reported that 20 layers of cloth masks, no 16, no, thank you Dr. Fauci, only 1 layer of cloth mask was sufficient to stop the SARS-CoV-2 virus in its tracks? I could go on, but the answer is not one peep from this challenger of dogma.

And yet, in practice, his defense of CDC orthodoxy shows the opposite. The real challenger of dogma has been Kennedy, who has questioned the sacred cows of American public health — vaccine trial design, regulatory capture, chronic disease drivers, and the silencing of dissent. What Daskalakis calls “dogma” is only that which challenges the CDC. What he calls “science” is whatever the CDC itself declares. Policy-first narrative enforcement activities.

None of this is to deny the human element. Daskalakis thanks his colleagues as “dedicated professionals committed to improving the health and well-being of communities across the nation.”

Burnout and disillusionment are real, and his sense of betrayal is palpable. But compassion must extend beyond the walls of the CDC. For decades, the American people have suffered from rising chronic illness. Six in ten live with at least one chronic disease. Life expectancy has declined relative to peer nations. Autoimmune conditions, autism, and metabolic disorders have surged. To claim that Kennedy caused mistrust is to invert reality: mistrust grew because what CDC did was not science but policy, enforced without transparency, accountability, or humility.

The refrain “enough is enough” was meant as a rebuke of Kennedy’s HHS. But for the American people, it applies first and foremost to the CDC itself. Enough of secrecy disguised as science. Enough of fear-based rhetoric to silence dissent. Enough of sanctimony about “gold standards” while health outcomes decline due to medicine optimized to proxy outcomes. Kennedy’s critics mistake his reforms for authoritarianism when, in fact, they are the first genuine challenge to authoritarian policy disguised as medicine.

The resignation of a career official should not be mocked. But it should be read for what it is: a defense of a failed paradigm, framed as a moral stand. The task ahead is not to preserve the CDC’s aura; that is undeserved. It is instead to put public health on a foundation of honesty, openness, and freedom worthy of trust. That — not resignation letters steeped in fallacy — is what will truly make America healthy again. (Enough Is Enough: What a CDC Resignation Reveals.)

People such as Susan Monarez and Demetre Daskalakis have willfully blinded themselves to the massive harm caused by vaccines of any kind, including, of course, the deadly Wuhan Virus jabs even though truly objective scientists in this country and elsewhere, especially in Japan, continue to prove the indisputable harm, up to and including “sudden death,” caused by the jabs developed President Donald John Trump’s warped Operation Warp Speed:

People who received COVID-19 vaccines had a significantly higher risk of death in the first year after vaccination compared to the unvaccinated, and the risk increased with each additional dose, according to an analysis of a Japanese database of 18 million people.

Medical commentator John Campbell, Ph.D., examined the data on his YouTube show this week. The data were originally released in June as part of a roundtable discussion, which was streamed online and led by Yasufumi Murakami, Ph.D., vice director of the Research Center for RNA Science at the Tokyo University of Science.

“The more doses you get, the sooner you are likely to die, within a shorter period,” Murakami said during the roundtable.

In his analysis, Campbell said deaths in the vaccinated group were up to four-and-a-half times higher than in the unvaccinated group. The data also showed that deaths among the vaccinated peaked between 90-120 days after vaccination, with the peak occurring sooner as the number of doses increased.

“If someone had had three doses, the peak might be after about … 120 days,” Campbell said. “But if they had four or five doses, the peak in deaths would be earlier, maybe about 90 days.”

The risk of death in vaccinated people remained elevated for the first year following vaccination, “significantly so for the first 240 days,” whereas for unvaccinated people, “no peak forms, which is the expected” outcome, Campbell said.

Japanese data indicate causal link between vaccinations, excess deaths

In his presentation, Murakami said the data show a clear causal link between vaccinations and excess deaths. Campbell agreed, noting that the excess deaths were “probably due to the vaccine’s influence, with adverse reactions occurring leading to death.”

“If the vaccine had no toxicity or didn’t induce death, there wouldn’t be a peak. That’s the point,” Campbell said.

According to immunologist and biochemist Jessica Rose, Ph.D., the spike protein in mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, such as those produced by Pfizer and Moderna, is likely a contributing factor to the higher death rate among the vaccinated.

She said:

“The spike protein is highly inflammatory and induces powerful immune reactions against affected cells. Cells transfected and producing spike protein are targeted for destruction, and since the lipid nanoparticles assure any cell can be a spike-producer, including heart cells, it explains much of cardiac-associated deaths.”

Karl Jablonowski, Ph.D., senior research scientist for Children’s Health Defense, agreed.

“The spike protein is a toxic component of SARS-CoV-2, and unanimously the antigen of choice for all mRNA vaccines,” he said. “The mRNA technology has many components that may be a driving force for increases in excess deaths.”

According to Rose, lipid nanoparticles, which help deliver mRNA throughout the body, can also cause blood clotting, contributing to adverse health events and deaths.

“Many components of the mRNA platform can facilitate disease and death,” Jablonowski said. This includes DNA contaminants that have been identified in the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, which he said “may trigger a deleterious immune response.”

Jablonowski said the Japanese dataset, which has not yet been published in a peer-reviewed journal, requires further analysis:

“Though 18 million is an impressive number, the size of the dataset doesn’t make it good science — the control does. Without detailed data, it is impossible to distinguish between vaccination-induced death or death of those more likely to be vaccinated.”

But if the dataset includes data for “millions of people within the same narrow age range, the same comorbidity grouping and no difference in confounders” and shows elevated death rates for these groups, then the Japanese data would be enough to “sink the mRNA platform worldwide,” Jablonowski said.

Albert Benavides, founder of VAERSaware.com, has analyzed the Japanese data on his Substack page and in an online dashboard he developed. He said the data “appears to be very sound and in line to what appears and what does not appear in VAERS.”

VAERS is the U.S. government-run Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System.

“Japan (2,396 deaths) sits at second place, only behind Germany (2,709 deaths), as the foreign country with the most COVID-19 deaths in VAERS,” Benavides said.

Data ‘enough to raise questions in the minds of all regulators’

The Japanese data are “enough to raise questions in the minds of all regulators for all mRNA products,” Campbell said, though he doesn’t expect it will.

Many researchers have focused their examination of vaccine-related adverse events on the first days following vaccination, he noted. “When it’s been 90 days, 120 days, they kind of lost interest and don’t make the link anymore.”

Yet, the Japanese data confirm findings of other studies that examined the longer-term effects of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines.

In a March interview, Campbell spoke with Robert Clancy, Ph.D., emeritus professor at the University of Newcastle’s School of Biomedical Sciences and Pharmacy in Australia, who is reviewing data from a separate dataset that indicates a peak in excess deaths three months after vaccination.

In a May analysis, Campbell examined excess death figures from Our World in Data for 20 countries. The data showed that excess deaths remain high in most Western countries — where mRNA COVID-19 vaccines were widely administered — but are lower in countries where mRNA vaccines were less commonly used.

A 2023 analysis by Phinance Technologies found that, in the U.S., COVID-19 vaccines caused more than 300,000 excess deaths, injured 26.6 million people, disabled 1.36 million people, and cost an estimated $147 billion in damage in 2022 alone.

According to a 2023 report in InsuranceNewsNet, U.S. insurance companies expected higher-than-normal payouts from excess deaths during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Insurers saw death benefits rise 15.4% in 2020, the biggest one-year increase since the 1918 Spanish flu epidemic, followed by a record $100.28 billion — nearly double the historic norm — in total death benefits paid out by the industry in 2021.

A paper published in April in the JMA Journal, the official peer-reviewed journal of the Japan Medical Association, found that Japan had “the world’s highest rate” of COVID-19 mRNA vaccine doses per capita — and “a significant increase in excess deaths in 2022 and 2023.”

“Although several hypotheses have been proposed to explain these phenomena, the truth remains to be established because sufficient studies and data disclosures have not been conducted to adequately investigate the possible contribution of mRNA vaccines,” the paper stated.

‘Incomprehensible’ that mRNA vaccines continue to be administered

Campbell praised Japanese scientists and officials for their “greater openness” regarding COVID-19 vaccine-related adverse events and deaths compared to other countries.

“Japan has been more transparent and vocal than most countries in mainstream and alternate media,” Benavides said. “Japan’s data is breaking through the data obfuscations and gatekeepers within VAERS.”

Campbell said it’s “incomprehensible” that mRNA vaccines continue to be administered with the “data that’s around now.”

“Regulators are going to have to answer for this sooner or later,” he said.

Rose said the Japanese data strengthen recent calls by scientists and physicians to suspend or withdraw the mRNA vaccines, but said what’s preventing such a ban “is the egregious demonstration of intentional harm to infants and children” by medical organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP).

Rose criticized the AAP for “continuing to recommend the COVID shots for infants and children, which is in direct contrast to current Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC] recommendations.”

The AAP, which represents 67,000 pediatricians, is the recipient of substantial funding from Big Pharma — including vaccine makers — and the federal government.

“Their largest donors, as can be seen on their website, are Moderna, Pfizer, Merck and Sanofi,” Rose said. “Follow the money. This isn’t about health.”

Last month, the AAP and five other medical organizations sued U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and other public health officials and agencies over changes to the COVID-19 vaccination recommendations for children and pregnant women, which led to new CDC COVID-19 vaccine guidance for these populations.

Jablonowski said, “A reasonable approach to regulation is to assume ‘harmful until proven otherwise,’” but the opposite has been true for mRNA vaccines. “The burden of proof should never fall on those with safety concerns, but on those who assert there is no concern for safety,” he said. (‘The More Doses You Get, The Sooner You are Likely to Die’: Japanese Data Suggest COVID Vaccines Led to Surge in Excess Death.)

Only those who are willfully blind and/or those who choose to ignore the truth because it interferences with their commitment to statist, transhumanist agenda can fail to recognize that yes, the more doses you get, the sooner one is likely to get very sick and even to die, and more and more peer reviewed studies are indicating that men such as Anthony Fauci and Peter Daszak were interested in protecting their own roles in funding the Wuhan Institute of Virology and in inventing “protocols” that delayed treatment of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and denied the use of treatments designed on patient history and that relied upon Vitamin C, Zinc, massive doses of Vitamin D, Ivermectin, and hydroxychloroquine:

A new peer-reviewed study suggests that the SARS-CoV-2 virus responsible for COVID-19 shows signs of “deliberate engineering” and that these features, including the spike protein also found in the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, are responsible for widespread health harms globally.

The study, authored by 11 scientific and legal experts, was published in the fall edition of the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons.

The authors argue that the man-made features of SARS-CoV-2 and the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines are likely the outcome of controversial gain-of-function research, in violation of the United Nations’ Biological Weapons Convention.

Gain-of-function research, which increases the transmissibility or virulence of viruses, is frequently used in vaccine development.

According to the paper, the spread of COVID-19 — followed by the rollout of mRNA vaccines — resulted in unprecedented health harms, ranging from “autoimmune diseases and cardiovascular catastrophes to pregnancy complications and aggressive cancers.”

“Far from benign, these vaccines have unleashed profound harm, disrupting nearly every system of the human body and contributing to unprecedented levels of morbidity and mortality,” the paper states.

Dr. Andrew Zywiec, principal physician at Zywiec & Porter, is the paper’s lead author. He said the paper reveals a “pattern of harm too consistent, too pervasive to be dismissed as chance.” He added:

“The systemic toxicity unleashed by these interventions, manifesting as autoimmune diseases, cardiovascular devastation, aggressive cancers, and catastrophic reproductive harms, represents not merely a public health failure but a profound betrayal of trust.”

Joseph Sansone, Ph.D., a psychotherapist who filed a lawsuit to prohibit mRNA vaccines in Florida, said the paper is “extremely significant” as it is “the first peer-reviewed journal article stating that both COVID and the COVID injections violate the Biological Weapons Convention and that both COVID-19 and the COVID injections are biological weapons.”

SARS-CoV-2 virus ‘indicative of laboratory manipulation’

According to the paper, the SARS-CoV-2 virus “displays multiple genomic features indicative of laboratory manipulation,” including its furin cleavage site, which “enhances infectivity” and which is “absent in SARS-like viruses found in nature.”

Several other features of the SARS-CoV-2 virus “enhance immunological evasion and aerosol transmissibility,” making the virus “unusually durable … and five times more stable in air” than other respiratory viruses.

journal articles by military scientists stating that SARS-CoV-2 contained “evidence of manipulation” that makes the virus an “attractive pathogen” due to its features, which resemble those of a biological weapon.

These manipulations “represent a violation of the Biological Weapons Convention,” the paper argues.

Enacted in 1975, the convention “effectively prohibits the development, production, acquisition, transfer, stockpiling and use of biological and toxin weapons.” Nearly 200 countries have signed it.

Paper accuses Fauci of deliberately concealing SARS-CoV-2 origins

According to the paper, gain-of-function research involves “viral manipulation techniques” that can lead to the development of pathogens that are banned under the convention.

Yet, the U.S. government — particularly the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, led by Dr. Anthony Fauci until 2022 — has long been involved in gain-of-function research, “including a long-standing collaboration between U.S.-funded institutions and the Wuhan Institute of Virology” in China.

Proponents of the “lab-leak theory” of the origins of SARS-CoV-2 argue that gain-of-function research at the Wuhan laboratory and a subsequent leak led to the global outbreak of COVID-19, which was covered up.

In April, the Trump administration launched a new version of the government’s official COVID-19 website, presenting evidence that COVID-19 emerged due to a leak at the Wuhan lab. The CIAFBIU.S. Department of EnergyU.S. Congress and several foreign intelligence agencies have endorsed this theory.

The paper refers to Project DEFUSE, a proposal the EcoHealth Alliance and Wuhan scientists submitted to the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency in 2018. Although the proposal was rejected, it described the creation of coronaviruses with features that enhanced their infectivity, including the furin cleavage site.

EcoHealth Alliance and its former president, Peter Daszak, Ph.D., collaborated with Wuhan researchers. Last year, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) suspended all funding for EcoHealth Alliance after finding the organization had failed to properly monitor risky coronavirus experiments.

The paper states that Fauci and the U.S. Intelligence Community never disclosed the existence of the research. Instead, “they obfuscated what is, in fact, proof of intent to produce a virus much like the one that caused the COVID-19 pandemic.”

The paper cites a Feb. 1, 2020, teleconference with Fauci and key virologists, including several of the co-authors of the now-infamous “The proximal origin of SARS-CoV-2” paper. The paper, which promoted the natural origin of COVID-19, was published in Nature Medicine in March 2020.

Although several of the co-authors of “Proximal Origin” expressed doubts that SARS-CoV-2 developed naturally, Fauci “aimed to suppress” such concerns during the Feb. 1, 2020, call.

“Proximal Origin” became one of the most-cited papers of 2020 and has been accessed over 6 million times. In 2023, The Nation reported that over 2,000 media outlets cited the paper.

The U.S. government, the scientific community and the media subsequently used “Proximal Origin” to promote the “zoonotic” — or natural origin — theory of the origin of SARS-CoV-2 and to discredit proponents of the “lab-leak theory.”

“The deliberate concealment of critical genomic features delayed public awareness and pandemic mitigation efforts, potentially allowing wider spread and more deaths,” the paper states.

In May, President Donald Trump issued an executive order that paused gain-of-function research in the U.S. for 120 days while a new regulatory framework is developed. It also ended U.S. funding for such research in some countries.

Spike protein poses ‘potential for irreversible harm’

According to the paper’s authors, the development of SARS-CoV-2 — and the COVID-19 features that contain similar gain-of-function properties — resulted in significant harm to global public health.

The paper references statistics from the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database which show a significantly increased incidence of myocarditis (151.4%), pulmonary embolism (43.6%), ovarian dysfunction (34.9%), hypertensive disease (22.9%), Guillain-Barré syndrome (14.9%), esophageal cancer (12.5%) and breast cancer (7%) in 2021, the year the COVID-19 vaccines were rolled out globally.

Additional U.S. military data cited in the paper show “persistent elevations” in myocarditis, digestive organ cancer, brain cancer and other injuries between 2022 and 2025.

Reproductive harms also significantly increased following the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccines, the paper argues. It cites data from sources including the U.S. government-run Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), Pfizer’s 2021 post-marketing surveillance report and its Phase 2/3 clinical trial data for its COVID-19 shot, showing increased miscarriages, stillbirths and neonatal deaths.

The paper cites the spike protein in the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines as one of the likely factors for the increased incidence of cancers and other health conditions in recent years.

“Prolonged protein expression, exemplified by S1 spike protein detection more than 700 days post-COVID vaccination, underscores the potential for irreversible harm,” the paper states.

The paper argues that suppression of “proven or promising treatments” such as hydroxychloroquine in favor of universal COVID-19 vaccine mandates — and the policy decision to implement mass vaccination during the pandemic — further exacerbated global public health and had “damaging effects on public trust.”

Growing calls to suspend mRNA vaccines

The paper was published just as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ended its broad authorization of COVID-19 vaccines earlier this week, restricting the shots to people at higher risk for severe illness.

Earlier this month, HHS announced it canceled nearly $500 million in contracts and grants for the development of mRNA vaccines.

A growing number of scientists have called for the suspension or withdrawal of mRNA vaccines. The paper’s authors said their findings strengthen these calls. They stated:

“The surge in autoimmune diseases, aggressive cancers, pregnancy losses, cardiovascular fatalities, societal fragmentation, and the looming risks of advanced mRNA platforms demand an immediate halt to mRNA vaccine and biologic use, comprehensive investigations into the motives behind this unprecedented violation of public trust, and robust measures to restore safe therapeutics and ethical public health practices.”

Dr. Irene Mavrakakis, one of the paper’s co-authors and a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Surgery at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, said the paper supports calls for “complete recall of all COVID-19 vaccines and biologics and a moratorium on all mRNA biologics.”

Mavrakakis also called for the “criminal prosecution of decision-makers who were criminally negligent and failed in their duties.” She said vaccine manufacturers should be stripped of the immunity they enjoy under the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 and the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act (PREP Act) of 2005.

Karl Jablonowski, Ph.D., senior research scientist at Children’s Health Defense, agreed. He said gain-of-function research “will always have its cheerleaders,” but humanity faces “extreme risk and inevitably pays a heavy price for that research.”

“Labs can and do leak,” he said. “One singular event at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in late 2019 caused innumerable suffering and death. Until we can construct a leak-proof lab, we shouldn’t be assembling world-ravaging viruses in them.”  (COVID Vaccines ‘Unleashed Profound Harm’ New Peer-Reviewed Paper Says. Also see: Breaking: Federal Court Reopens Case of 24-Year-Old Who Died of COVID Vaccine-Induced Myocarditis.)

Although it is unlikely that the decision-makers will face any kind of criminal prosecution, especially The Autopen gave Anthony Fauci a pardon before he left office on January 20, 2025, believing Catholics know that each human being will have to render an account of their actions to Christ the King at the time of their deaths. The Particular Judgment admits of immunity for no one, not Anthony Fauci, not Peter Daszak, not Deborah Birx, not Francis Collins, not Xavier Becerra, not Andrew Mark Cuomo, not Gavin Newsom, not Susan Monarez, and not Demetre Daskalakis. Each of these unreconstructed pro-aborts who have rigidly adhere to ideological prescriptions in the name of science while remaining oblivious to the harm their policies caused to human beings and to society will have no place to hide from the judgment that awaits us all:

2. It is the common opinion of theologians, that at the very moment and in the very place in which the soul departs from the body, the divine tribunal is erected, the accusation is read, and the sentence is passed by Jesus Christ, the Judge. At this terrible tribunal each of us shall be presented to give an account of all our thoughts, of all our words, and of all our actions. "For we must all be manifested before the judgment seat of Christ, that every one may receive the proper things of the body, according as he hath done, whether it be good or evil." ( 2 Cor. v. 10.) When presented before an earthly judge criminals have been seen to fall into a cold sweat through fear. It is related of Piso, that so great and insufferable was the confusion, which he felt at the thought of appearing as a criminal before the senate that he killed himself. How great is the pain of a vassal, or of a son, in appearing before an angry prince or an enraged father, to account for some crime which he has committed! Oh! how much greater shall be the pain and confusion of the soul in standing, before Jesus Christ enraged against her for having despised him during her life! Speaking of judgment, St. Luke says: "Then you shall see the Son of Man." (Luke xxi. 27.) They shall see Jesus Christ as man, with the same wounds with which he ascended into heaven. "Great joy of the beholders!" says Robert the Abbot, "a great terror of those who are in expectation!" These wounds shall console the just, and shall terrify the wicked. In them sinners shall see the Redeemer’s love for themselves, and their ingratitude to him.

3. "Who," says the Prophet Nahum, "can stand before the face of his indignation ?" (i. 6.) How great, then, shall be the terror of a soul that finds herself in sin before this Judge, the first time she shall see him, and see him full of wrath! St. Basil says that she shall be tortured more by her shame and confusion than by the very fire of hell. ”Horridior quam ignis, erit pudor." Philip the Second rebuked one of his domestics for having told him a lie. ”Is it thus," said the king to him, ”you deceive me?" The domestic, after having returned home, died of grief. The Scripture tells us, that when Joseph reproved his brethren, saying: ”I am Joseph, whom you sold," they were unable to answer through fear, and remained silent. ”His brethren could not answer him, being struck with exceeding great fear." (Gen. xlv. 3.) Now what answer shall sinners make to Jesus Christ when he shall say to them: I am your Redeemer and your Judge, whom you have so much despised. Where shall the miserable beings fly, says St. Augustine, when they shall see an angry Judge above, hell open below, on one side their own sins accusing them, and on the other the devils dragging them to punishment, and their conscience burning them within? “Above shall be an enraged Judge below, a horrid chaos on the right, sins accusing him on the left, demons dragging him to punishment within, a burning conscience! Whither shall a sinner, beset in this manner, fly ?"Perhaps he will cry for mercy? But how, asks Eusebius Emissenus, can he dare to implore mercy, when he must first render an account of his contempt for the mercy which Jesus Christ has shown to him?”With what face will you, who are to be first judged for contempt of mercy, ask for mercy?" But let us come to the rendering of the accounts.

Second Point. Terror of the soul when she shall be examined.

4. As soon as the soul shall be presented before the tribunal of Jesus Christ, he will say to her: ”Give an account of thy stewardship:" render instantly an account of thy entire life. The Apostle tells us, that to be worthy of eternal glory our lives must be found conformable to the life of Jesus Christ. ”For whom he foreknew, he also predestinated to be made conformable to the image of his son ;...them he also glorified." (Rom. viii. 29, 30.) Hence St. Peter has said, that in the judgment of Jesus Christ, the just man who has observed the divine law, has pardoned enemies, has respected the saints, has practised chastity, meekness, and other virtues, shall scarcely be saved. ”The just man shall scarcely be saved." The Apostle adds: "Where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear ?" (1 Pet. iv. 18.) What shall become of the vindictive and the unchaste, of blasphemers and slanderers? What shall become of those whose entire life is opposed to the life of Jesus Christ?

5. In the first place, the Judge shall demand of sinners an account of all the blessings and graces which he bestowed on them in order to bring them to salvation, and which they have rendered fruitless. He will demand an account of the years granted to them that they might serve God, and which they have spent in offending him. "He hath called against me the time." (Lam. i. 15.) He will then demand an account of their sins. Sinners commit sins, and afterwards forget them; but Jesus Christ does not forget them: he keeps, as Job says, all our iniquities numbered, as it were in a bag. “Thou hast sealed up my iniquities, as it were in a bag." (Job xiv. 17.) And he tells us that, on the day of accounts, he will take a lamp to scrutinize all the actions of our life. ”And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem with lamps." (Soph. i. 12.) The lamp, says Mendoza on this passage, penetrates all the corners of the house that is, God will discover all the defects of our conscience, great and small. According to St. Anselm, an account shall be demanded of every glance of the eyes. ”Exigitur usque ad ictum oculi." And, according to St. Matthew, of every idle word. ”Every idle word that men shall speak, they shall render an account for it on the day of judgment." (Matt. xii. 36.)

6. The Prophet Malachy says, that as gold is refined by taking away the dross, so on the day of judgment all our actions shall be examined, and every defect which may be discovered shall be punished. ”He shall purify the sons of Levi, and shall refine them as gold." (Mal. iii. 3.) Even our justices that is, our good works, confessions, communions, and prayers shall be examined. "When I shall take a time, I will judge justices." (Ps. Ixxiv. 3.) But if every glance, every idle word, and even good works, shall be judged, with what rigour shall immodest expressions, blasphemies, grievous detractions, thefts, and sacrileges be judged? Alas! on that day every soul shall, as St. Jerome says, see, to her own confusion, all the evils which she has done. ”Videbit unusquisque quod fecit."

7. “Weight and balance are judgments of the Lord. ”(Prov. xvi. 11.) In the balance of the Lord a holy life and good works make the scale descend; but nobility, wealth, and science have no weight. Hence, if found innocent, the peasant, the poor, and the ignorant shall be rewarded. But the man of rank, of wealth, or of learning, if found guilty, shall be condemned. "Thou art weighed in the balance," said Daniel to Belthassar, ”and art found wanting." (Dan. v. 27.)”Neither his gold nor his wealth," says Father Alvares, ”but the king alone was weighed."

8. At the divine tribunal the poor sinner shall see himself accused by the devil, who, according to St. Augustine, ”will recite the words of our profession, and will charge us before our face with all that we have done, will state the day and hour in which we sinned." (Con. Jud., tom. 6.)”He will recite the words of our profession" that is, he will enumerate the promises which we have made to God, and which we afterwards violated. ”He will charge us before our face ;" he will upbraid us with all our wicked deeds, pointing to the day and hour in which they were committed. And he will, as the same saint says, conclude his accusation by saying: "I have suffered neither stripes nor scourges for this man." Lord, I have suffered nothing for this ungrateful sinner, and to make himself my slave he has turned his back on thee who has endured so much for his salvation. He, therefore, justly belongs to me. Even his angel-guardian will, according to Origen, come forward to accuse him, and will say: "I have laboured so many years for his salvation; but he has despised all my admonitions." "Unusquisque angelorum perhibet testimonium, quot annis circa eum laboraverit, sed ille monita sprevit." (Hom. lxvi.) Thus, even friends shall treat with contempt the guilty soul. ”All her friends have despised her." (Lamen. i. 2.) Her very sins shall, says St. Bernard, accuse her. “And they shall say: You have made us; we are your work; we shall not desert you." (Lib. Medit, cap. ii.) We are your offspring; we shall not leave you: we shall be your companions in hell for all eternity.

9. Let us now examine the excuses which the sinner will be able to advance. He will say, that the evil inclinations of nature had drawn him into sin. But he shall be told that, if concupiscence impelled him to sins, it did not oblige him to commit them; and that, if he had recourse to God, he should have received from him grace to resist every temptation. For this purpose Jesus Christ has left us the sacraments: but when we do not make use of them, we can complain only of ourselves. "But, ” says the Redeemer, “now they have no excuse for their sin." (John xv. 22.) To excuse himself, the sinner shall also say that the devil tempted him to sin. But, as St. Augustine says, "The enemy is bound like a dog in chains, and can bite only him who has united himself to him with a deadly security." The devil can bark, but cannot bite unless you adhere and listen to him. Hence the saint adds: “See how foolish is the man whom a dog, loaded with chains, bit\es." Perhaps he will advance his bad habits as an excuse; but this shall not stand; for the same St. Augustine says, that though it is difficult to resist the force of an evil habit, ”if any one does not desert himself, he will conquer it with the divine assistance." If a man does not abandon himself to sin, and invokes God’s aid, he will overcome evil habits. The Apostle tells us, that the Lord does not permit us to be tempted above our strength. ”God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that which you are able." ( I Cor. x. 13.)

10. “For what shall I do," said Job, ”when God shall rise to judge me? and when he shall examine, what shall I answer him” (Job xxxi. 14.) What answer shall the sinner give to Jesus Christ? How can he, who sees himself so clearly convicted, give an answer? He shall be covered with confusion, and shall remain silent, like the man found without the nuptial garment. ”But he was silent." (Matt. xxii. 12.) His very sins shall shut the sinner’s mouth. "And all iniquity shall stop her mouth." (Ps. cvi. 42.) There, says St. Thomas of Villanova, there shall be no intercessor to whom the sinner can have recourse. “There, there is no opportunity of sinning; there, no intercessor, no friend, no father shall assist." Who shall then save you? Is it God? But how, asks St. Basil, can you expect salvation from him whom you have despised?” Who shall deliver you? Is it God, whom you have insulted ?" (S. Bas., Or. 4, de Fen.) Alas! the guilty soul that leaves this world in sin, is condemned by herself before the Judge pronounces sentence. Let us come to the sentence of the Judge.  (Sermons for All the Sundays in the Year by St Alphonsus Liguori in .pdf format.)

Today’s public miscreants may try to arrogantly cling bitterly to their pride, their “science,” and the applause they receive from their fellow high priests and priestesses of the so-called “popular culture,” but all their bitter clinging will no them no good at all when they die as they have caused such incalculable harm and as their decisions to continue to put us all at risk, whether from the spike proteins that are emitted from many of the vaxxed, from local anesthetics used by dentists that contain the vaccine, or even when aboard an aircraft piloted by a vaxxed captain:

“Something happened in 2021” that has jeopardized air travel safety, according to a disturbing report by Dr. Kevin Stillwagon, a retired airline pilot and immunology expert.

Mounting evidence points to the COVID-19 vaccinations that airlines, acting under pressure from the U.S. government, mandated or otherwise coerced their cockpit, cabin, and ground crews into taking.

Since 2021, there has been a marked increase in deaths of “younger” airline pilots while long-term disabilities for pilots have skyrocketed. All of this has been accompanied by an astronomical increase of near-miss incidents at the nation’s airports.

“Incapacitations of pilots are definitely increasing, especially in younger pilots,” Stillwagon said in a video discussion with Nicolas Hulscher, an epidemiologist and administrator at the McCullough Foundation.

“There was a 40% increase in pilots dying early – before mandatory retirement age of 65 – in 2021,” Stillwagon said.

“Starting in 2021, pilot long-term disabilities have tripled,” he noted. “Prior to 2021, there was only one near-miss at the Washington National Airport (DCA).  But after 2021, there were 28 near-misses per year.”

The mRNA COVID-19 jab was illegally forced on airline pilots

Stillwagon maintains that from the outset, the mRNA COVID-19 shots were illegally forced upon the nation’s airline pilots.

“They were illegal because you cannot put an experimental product into a pilot, as found in the ‘Aeromedical Advice Manual,’ given to all aeromedical examiners,” he pointed out.

Commercial pilots are legally prohibited from taking experimental medicines and face losing their medical certification for taking anything other than FAA-approved drugs.

If a pilot takes an unapproved medical product, flight surgeons must take administrative measures to revoke or deny issuance of the pilot’s flight physical certificate until the FAA rules on the safety of that product. Yet UAL encouraged, coerced and even paid pilots to violate this federal law.

Pilots who were forced into submitting to the experimental jabs found themselves trapped in a horrific catch-22, with their careers hanging in the balance. Those who accepted the COVID-19 jab under duress were not only strong-armed into violating their religious beliefs, they were forced to choose between abiding by FAA safety rules or breaching those rules, putting their health and the safety of their passengers at risk.

“This is exactly why we are seeing sudden heart failure in younger and younger people,” Stillwagon said. “We’re also seeing brain fog in pilots and air traffic controllers which can result in their ability to think properly (and) their reaction times.”

The COVID-19 mRNA jab can also induce seizures that, if experienced by an airline pilot during a flight, can produce disastrous results. 

“This is a big deal,” Stillwagon declared. “This is huge.”

mRNA vaccines ‘were never safe nor effective’

mRNA-based injections instruct human cells to produce a genetically engineered version of coronavirus “spike protein” in order to trigger an immune system response.

Developers of the mRNA vaccines failed to foresee that once inside the body, the repeated development of the spike proteins can’t be controlled. For some recipients of the vaccines, their bodies became a human factory for the production of the spike protein, able to travel via the bloodstream from the injection site to their entire body, including major organs, the brain, liver, spleen, bone marrow, and reproductive organs.

As the immune system does its job attacking the cells it recognizes as “infected” due to the presence of the spike proteins, it attacks those organs and tissues, causing inflammation, myocarditis, and grotesque blood clots.

“The spike protein is directly toxic, and can directly damage tissues,” Stillwagon said.

‘Airline pilots are the ‘least monitored component in the cockpit’

Stillwagon said that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has failed to sufficiently collect data on the health of pilots since the introduction of the COVID-19 vaccines.

While aviation authorities and airline management focus a great deal of attention on how well pilots comply with general operating procedures while behind the controls in the cockpit – proper maintenance of airspeed, flaps usage, etc. – glaring pilot “data gaps” remain.

For instance, the FAA reportedly keeps no record of pilot injection history, and for some unknown reason, the agency discontinued its centralized pilot incapacitation database in 2022. Stillwagon suspects it’s because aviation authorities didn’t want information contained in the database to be seen by the public.

“The data silence that the FAA has created is preventing systemic trends from being detected,” he said.

“We monitor aircraft oil temperature to within a tenth of a degree centigrade, but we don’t track whether the pilot has the potential for cardiac or cerebrovascular events,” Stillwagon said.

“The pilot is the least monitored component in the cockpit,” he declared. “In modern aviation, we treat the jet like a data-rich spacecraft – and the pilot like a black box.”

“Science has gotten confused over the years,” Stillwagon said. “The problem with vaccines is mainly ideology. It’s almost like a religion.” (Sudden Deaths, Incapacitations Soar Among COVID-Jabbed Airline Pilots.)

Vaxxed pilots.

Vaxxed and woke air traffic controllers.

Vaxxed drivers.

Where does it end?

Well, my view is that this will end only with the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary as this every single bit of this is a chastisement for our sins.

It is also important to remember, of course, that the modern monsters of the apocalypse who are responsible for the continuing “global reset” to advance the goals of transhumanism, in which so-called “artificial intelligence” will play a major part, began as a consequence of Martin Luther’s revolution against the Divine Plan that God Himself instituted to effect man’s return to Him through His Catholic Church, which then made possible the philosophical evolutionism of George Friedrich Hegel, the biological evolutionism of Charles Darwin, the economic evolutionism of Karl Marx, and the utilitarianism of the late-Nineteenth and early Twentieth Centuries that advanced “population control” and eugenics. Scientists untethered from any fealty to the Divine Positive Law and the Natural Law as defined and defended by the Catholic Church conducted mad experiments upon human beings in the German Weimar Republic (1919-1933), the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and Nazi Germany, and it is the very same false beliefs held by the progenitors of error and death a century ago that are at the proximate foundation of the rise and institutionalization of contraception, sterilization, the surgical execution of the innocent preborn, “brain death”/vital organ vivisection, mass vaccination programs, the starvation and dehydration of  human beings, palliative care/hospice, in vitro fertilization, monstrous experiments with human-animal chimera, and so-called transgenderism.

While the efforts being undertaken by United States Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Francis Kennedy, Jr., are very commendable, we must remember that, like everything else in the American system of governance, what is done by one presidential administration can be undone quite readily by the next. The shifting sands of “popular sovereignty” are such that nothing is ever “settled” and, given the rise of nihilistic violence and the large numbers of young people who have been miseducated by America’s concentration camps and so-called “entertainment” industry to believe in actual, honest-to-goodness communism and active class warfare (see To the Precipice and Over the Cliff of Nihilism and Self-Annihilation), we are always one election away from returning to someone worse than William Jefferson Blythe Clinton, Barack Hussein Obama/Barry Soetoro, and Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr., all rolled into one. There never be any stability in a world gone mad, a world that untethered from Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and His Holy Catholic Church, a world in which most people are neither devoted to nor reliant upon the maternal protection and intercessory power of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the August Queen of Heaven, Queen of Mercy, Perpetual Help, and Help of Christians, especially through her Most Holy Rosary.

The Parable of the Good Samaritan

Most physicians today do not see the Divine impress in the souls of their patients and most certainly do not treat their patients in light of their own eternal salvation.

Yes, many are competent and have a genuine natural concern for the physical well-being of their patients, without a doubt. I know this to be true as I received very good care when I suffered a broken hip in four places after a brutal fall on December 14, 2021, in rural Texas, then underwent hip repair surgery the next day. The surgeon, who had an Irish Catholic name (Malone) but was not a Catholic, did a very fine job and I recovered well within three months (my current limp is the result of my chronic back, knee, and feet problems and has nothing to do with the hip repair surgery), and, of course, my cardiologist, Dr. Peter A. McCullough, who is also a non-Catholic, is as good as they come and has been courageous in his opposition to the coronascam agenda.

However, lost upon most physicians today is the Parable of the Good Samaritan, which has both a natural but, much more importantly, a supernatural dimension that has everything do with the healing of the soul by the Divine Physician, Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, in the Sacred Tribunal of Penance, while also having application secondarily to the performance of the Corporal Works of Mercy.

Father George Leo Haydock explained the supernatural meaning of the Parable in a Good Samaritan in his commentary on the New Testament:

Ver. 34. This is the allegorical meaning of the parable: The man that fell among robbers, represents Adam and his posterity; Jerusalem, the state of peace and innocence, which man leaves by going down to Jericho, which means the moon, the state of trouble and sin: the robbers represent the devil, who stripped him of his supernatural gifts, and wounded him in his natural faculties: the priest and Levite represent the old law: the Samaritan, Christ; and the beast, his humanity. The inn means the Church; wine, the blood of Christ; oil, his mercy; whilst the host signifies St. Peter and his successors, the bishops and priests of the Church. (Origen, St. Jerome, St. Ambrose, St. Augustine, and others) (Luke 10 – Haydock Commentary Online.)

Most people today, including most physicians, do not understand that all the problems of the world, bar none, are caused by Original Sin and the Actual Sins of men. Disease and death itself are punishments in a general man caused by Original Sin, although it is Calvinistic to assert that a person who is suffering from some illness or chronic condition is suffering from any particular sin of his, noting that violations of the Fifth, Sixth, and Ninth Commandments often do bring direct sicknesses upon the impure, of course. The point, though, is this: as much as there is a need for good physicians to heal bodies according to sound medical practices that are not dictated by Big Pharma, are open to naturopathic treatments and are not opposed to the eternal laws of God, there is a much greater need for men to be healed spiritually in the Sacred Tribunal of Penance, something that Father Francis X. Weninger, S.J., noted in his first sermon for the Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost:

"A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers, who also stripped him; and having wounded him went away leaving him half dead."--Luke 10.
 

Today's Gospel presents to our consideration the sad condition of a man who has had the misfortune to lose the precious boon of saving grace by yielding to temptation, and falling into mortal sin.

But, at the same time, it points to the great fortune that becomes ours, as children of the true Church, through the grace the effects of the Sacrament of Penance which Christ left His Church for the salvation and restoration of those who, robbed and wounded by sin, cast themselves repentantly into the arms of God's infinite mercy.

Hence, this authority to forgive sin is the most important power and grace Christ left His Church for the salvation of the sinful human race. But, unhappily, all who apparently receive this Sacrament do not really receive absolution; for there are many whose heart is not in that disposition necessary for the forgiveness of sin. The first and most important condition is abhorrence of sin, and a thorough appreciation of the misfortune into which sin has precipitated us. The greater this abhorrence is, the deeper our grief, the more thorough and effective will be our repentance, the more sincere our resolution to avoid all sin in future, and our faithfulness in keeping this resolution.

Today's Gospel, by what it tells us of the robbed and wounded traveler, is especially qualified to awaken and increase within us this disposition of heart.

Mary, thou refuge of sinners, full of grace, pray for us, that God may give us the light to recognize fully the evil of sin, and to avoid it for evermore! I speak in the most holy name of Jesus, to the greater glory of God!

If the sinner really desires to receive, through the Sacrament of Penance, absolution, and to be sanctified and saved, then it is his duty to repent of his sin sincerely, and to make the firm resolution never to offend God again.

The consideration of the benefits of which sin robs us, and the wounds it deals us, will especially incline our hearts to repent thus. The robbed and wounded traveler of Jericho reminds us of this, and places this sad state of the soul figuratively before our eyes.

The man attacked by robbers lies upon the ground stripped of his garments. What are these garments, morally and spiritually considered, in connection with the state of a sinner? I reply: Sin deprives him of that inexpressibly great good, the garment of sanctifying grace. To obtain a faint conception of the value of this benefit, we need only consider the connection in which we stand, as man, to God, and to the approaching eternity.

I say: We are, it is true, as reasonable beings already the image of God since God is a Spirit, and the soul is also a spirit; but this nobility of the soul this God-like nature does not entitle us to that supernatural destination by which we are permitted to see and to possess God.

This good fortune does not fall to the lot of man until after the bestowal of sanctifying grace, a fact to which the book of Genesis refers in testifying that God created man, not only to His own image, but also to His likeness. It is by sanctifying grace that we become the kindred of God; become like Him, as children are like their father.

No mind of man can divine the splendor, the beauty, which sanctifying grace pours out over the soul. It is when in this state that man receives the right to call God, not only his Lord, but also his " Father." It is, further, in this state that man enters into the communion of the angels and saints, and in heaven shares for evermore their joy, their bliss, and their merits and glorification.

Man is then in that happy state which enables him, with the aid of actual grace, to raise himself, with every breath, higher and higher in the joys of heaven, and to place always purer and more beautiful jewels in the crown of his merits. In the same measure in which the light of sanctifying grace is communicated to the soul here upon earth, so one day the light of glory will be communicated when the soul leaves earth to go to God, to see, to know, to love Him, and to partake of His infinite glory.

Man, when in this state of grace, may consider himself as a fellow-citizen of the angels in the heavenly Jerusalem; he may greet all saints as brothers and sisters; may call the Blessed Virgin, Mother; and Jesus, as man, nay, even God, his Brother a prerogative which is not even granted to the angels!

How great a possession is sanctifying grace! It is represented in the Apocalypse as the magnificent garment which clothes the saints in splendor.

But, behold! one single mortal sin robs man of this precious, magnificent garment of his soul; robs him suddenly of all his merits, all his claims to the kingdom of glory; for there is no communion between light and darkness, between God and sin, between Christ and Belial!

Christ says: "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven." He also, together with all his fallen comrades, had come into existence in this state of sanctifying grace. It was sin, and that only committed in thought, that took this good from him and all the angels, changing them from beautiful inhabitants of heaven into horrible demons, and cast them from their high places into the abyss of hell! They are lost forever!

The same miserable condition befalls the soul that, after being clothed in the heavenly vesture of sanctifying grace, has the misfortune to fall into mortal sin!

Heaven, the inheritance of glory and bliss in the communion of the saints is lost, man has no longer the right to consider himself the fellow-citizen of the angels and saints, to greet the Blessed Virgin as mother, Jesus as Brother and Saviour!

Lost are all the merits which he had earned until now; and, as long as he remains in this state, there is no possibility of his gaining merits for the life to come, even if he fast, give alms, and do all that appears worthy of praise.

Besides this, sin robs him of the peace of his soul, of the comfort a good conscience gives; of the joys, not only of those found in prayer, but of all those which the Catholic Church offers her children during the ecclesiastical year; of the consolation of a worthy reception of the Blessed Eucharist, and of the hope of heaven
!

Sin also wounds the faculties of the soul. It injures the mind, the understanding, respecting things of salvation. It even conceals the greatness of the misery it occasions. Sin wounds, enfeebles the will, and burdens it with the slavish chains of habit. Sin wounds the memory by crowding it with sinful recollections, and deceptive imaginations. Sin wounds heart and feeling in such a manner that all desire to lead a virtuous life slowly dies.

Sinner, in order that you may repent and confess worthily, consider how sin has robbed you, and how it has inflicted deadly wounds upon you! Amen
! (Father Francis X. Weninger, S.J., Sermon for the Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost.)

Yes, sin is more deadly than any virus, including the coronavirus, and the Wuhan Virus jab is the product of a sinful process designed by transhumanists to do the damage that it continues to do while these same transhumanists continue to lie about what the harm they have caused to so many in such a relatively short space of time.

We must pray to Our Lady that today’s merchants of death, disease, and destruction will seek out the Divine Physician in the Sacred Tribunal of Penance and to make reparation for their sins while we ourselves make good use of the confessional (if at all possible in this time of apostasy and betrayal) so that we can be cleansed of our Actual Sins by the application of the merits of the Most Precious Blood of Our Jesus Christ upon our souls through the words of absolution uttered by a true priest.

This time of chastisement will pass but we must be willing to cooperate with the graces that Our Lady sends to us to bear the crosses of the moment with love, gratitude, joy, and patience as we persevere to the end in our tender devotion to her and our fidelity to praying of her Most Holy Rosary.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Joseph, pray for us.

Saints Peter and Paul, pray for us.

Saint John the Baptist, pray for us.

Saint John the Evangelist, pray for us.

Appendix A

Father Weninger’s Second and Third Sermons for the Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost

"Go, and do thou in like manner.--Luke 10.

The good Samaritan took the robbed and wounded traveler to an inn and cared for him.

This parable points out the state of a sinner wounded by sin, and also of his cure and recovery through the Sacrament of Penance which Christ left His Church.

The importance of this Sacrament, and the favor God bestowed upon us in its institution, is especially manifest from the circumstance that the Apostle does not mention in the Creed any other power or gift left by Christ to His Church than this one: "I believe in the Holy Catholic Church, in the forgiveness of sin."

Christ came into the world to save sinners, and founded His Church that He might bestow upon her the infinite merits of the redemption, in order that all the children of man, who are of a good and believing mind, may draw from it grace and salvation until the end of time. Our part in the economy of this Sacrament is, that we receive it frequently and rightly; we can not, therefore, be reminded too often or too emphatically of this duty. Hence, I say today: Confess often, but confess rightly, and to the spiritual recovery of your soul.

O Mary, refuge of sinners, grant thy aid, that all may rightly confess, and that thus they may be truly absolved from their sins! I speak in the most holy name of Jesus, to the greater glory of God.

St. Augustine used to say: "He who prays well, lives well." We have the same right; yes, even more right to say: "He who confesses well, lives well." Unfortunately, confession is not always what it should be. Were this not the case, how great a change the Church of God would experience, at least once a year, at Easter!

St. Teresa goes so far as to ask the question: "Why have there been and are there Catholics, and God knows how many, who will be lost for all eternity?" Is it because they sinned? "No;" answers the saint, "but because they have not rightly confessed." And yet how easy would it be for all those children of the Church, who have sinned, to reconcile themselves to God, if they only fulfilled the few and easy conditions that are necessary for a worthy confession!

Every Christian, while yet but a child, is instructed in these conditions, and is able to enumerate them; and yet the confession of many, and even of some who confess often, is only a deception. But though they may succeed in deceiving the priest, they can not deceive God, Who sees into the heart. I will prove my assertion more in detail.

The first condition necessary for a worthy confession is the sincere desire to confess rightly, and hence the earnest cry of the heart to God: Enlighten me, O Lord! to recognize my guilt, strengthen me to confess rightly, to repent truly, and never again to offend Thee!

How many confess only from habit, and do not approach the Sacrament of Penance with the earnestness it requires. I am afraid of such confessions.

The second condition is instruction; namely, to be able, as a well-instructed Christian, to distinguish be tween what is sin and what is not; between a mortal and a venial sin. To draw this distinction with sufficient accuracy, it is necessary to be instructed in the Catechism.

Prayer-books, with aids for confession, in the form of examination of conscience, are not practical, because they are liable to fall into the hands of some one unacquainted with the vices enumerated therein, and who might be led by them into temptation.

What every one needs is instruction and examination of conscience, at least, in regard to all that is mortal sin in thoughts, words, desires, works, omissions, in regard to his own sins, and the sins of others as far as they are caused by him. So many omit a thorough examination of conscience, and hence so many unworthy confessions.

We go into the confessional and confess our sinful actions, but we have not examined and do not confess our thoughts; and yet many great sins are committed in thought!

We confess evil deeds, but as we have not examined ourselves in regard to our wishes, we do not confess our sinful desires. And yet, men frequently commit greater sin in desire than in deed, because they have not the opportunity to do what they sinfully desire. Such confessions are deceptions.

We confess our evil actions, but we do not examine ourselves in regard to our obligations, and hence do not confess our sins of omission.

Only God knows how many confessions of parents, especially of mothers, for they go oftener to confession than their husbands, are useless, because they have sinned greatly by omitting to force their children to say those prayers which are of obligation for all; by not in structing them in their faith; by not preparing them soon enough for Holy Communion; by not watching their intercourse with others; by not punishing their misdeeds; by not guiding them properly in the selection of their vocation; especially, by not advising them, as they are in duty bound, when they wish to marry.

We confess, but we do not explain our sin; we do not state those circumstances which change the nature of the sin committed.

We say for instance: I have sinned against the sixth commandment; but, having not examined ourselves, we do not say whether we led others or were led by them into the path of evil. Such confessions are unworthy. We confess, but we do not mention the number of times the sin was committed, as is necessary in regard to mortal sin.

But what still oftener renders confession a deception is the absence of that repentance which we should feel, considering that we have offended God, and that we have wickedly exposed ourselves to the terrible, the eternal consequences of sin.

The most efficacious means to awaken in us, by faith and love, a true, supernatural repentance, is to look upon Jesus, the crucified Saviour, and upon Magdalen at the foot of the cross, upon the anguish she felt when she saw how her Lord suffered, when she looked at His wounds, and the blood which fell upon her from the cross!

Lastly, there is frequently not sufficient care to reanimate our faith while approaching the Sacrament of Penance, and also great negligence in making the firm resolution to avoid sin and every occasion leading to it, and thus we show that our repentance is not true and supernatural.

How many who confess, do not confess worthily! And why? They conceal mortal sins! They are ashamed. And yet, how easy it were for them to be candid, had they but faith, and did they but consider that the confessor is not there to represent the severe judge but the good Samaritan, who feels consoled to see that his care for the poor wounded sinner is not in vain, but that, with the help of the Almighty he can restore him!

Would to God that every sinner appreciated the care and solicitude the priest and confessor has for his soul! The good Samaritan in the Gospel lovingly placed the robbed and wounded traveler upon his own beast and took him to an inn.

Unfortunately, a confessor has the greatest trouble and anxiety to encourage, question and assist the sinner in order that he may confess frankly, thoroughly and repentantly, but he does it willingly, and pours wine and oil into the wounds of the sinner's heart by his impressive and consoling exhortations.

Sinner, trust yourself to the priest, and your wounds will be healed! Amen!

"I, at my return, will repay thee."--Luke 10.

A faithful soul, reading today's Gospel, will be involuntarily reminded that man, precipitated by sin into the depth of misery, finds help through Christ, the Good Samaritan, if he himself does not place obstacles in the way.

We call this benefit of our reconciliation to God, this power of the Church in regard to the dispensation of the Sacrament of Penance, rightly the greatest benefit which man, as Christian, as sinner, owes to God; but it is necessary that man, on his side, cooperate, that he fulfill all the given conditions, in order to receive the Sacrament of Penance effectually, and to render his confession beneficial.

But it should not rest there. He ought to do all in his power to confess frequently, and gain that grace which God has bestowed upon His Church for those who approach the Sacrament of Penance worthily. In regard to this, it is well to consider the shallowness of all the excuses usually drought forward by all lukewarm Christians, when they are exhorted to go more frequently to confession. This shall be the subject of our meditation today.

O Mary, refuge of sinners, mother of grace, pray for us, thy children, that by the frequent reception of the Sacrament of Penance we may always draw more divine grace from the fountain of the wounds of Christ! I speak in the most holy name of Jesus, to the greater glory of God!

Why should I go so often to confession? This is generally the first question uttered by the lukewarm Christians, when they are invited and exhorted to confess frequently.

I answer: Confess often in order to do it well, for that which we do often and earnestly we learn to do easily, well, and with assurance. Hence, men who always do the same work, do it generally quickly and properly. This will become clearer and more intelligible to us, if we place the conditions for making a worthy confession before our eyes in the order in which they follow.

The first of these conditions is: humility of heart the cry of the soul to God: Lord, help; otherwise I am powerless! enlighten me! strengthen me!

Men who go but seldom to confession are not so thoroughly impressed with the greatness of their weakness as those who confess often, and yet fall again and again into errors and faults, and hence clearly see and understand their littleness. These are further humiliated at not seeing their imperfections as the saints did; hence their cry to God: Lord, enlighten me! strengthen me! have mercy on me!

It is entirely different with those who rarely go to confession. They think and say to themselves: I am good enough, by far not as bad as many others; why should I go so often to confession?

The second condition is the clear knowledge of one's self as far as this lies in our power.

One who seldom looks around a room does not notice the dust that collects there. Men who go but seldom to confession also examine but seldom their conscience with the earnestness those do who confess often. Their conscience is like the wall which the spirit of the prophet Ezechiel saw when he heard God's call : "Strike it! What dost thou see? Nothing. Strike again! Another portion of the wall falls. What dost thou see? Nothing. Strike again! The wall falls. What dost thou see? The abomination of abominations, O Lord! " It is the same with confession. Just those who but rarely enter the confessional seem to have the least to say. Their excuse is : Why should I confess so frequently? I do nothing bad. But no sooner does the confessor commence to question, than every question seems a renewed stroke at the falling wall, and how often so much appears that is horrible, so much corruption, that confessor and penitent exclaim to themselves: "Abomination of abominations!"

But, even, if going but seldom to confession you yet do not commit a mortal sin, you have, nevertheless, no right to ask: Why should I go more frequently to confession, when I do not commit mortal sin? For whoever thus excuses himself and how many do it ! is not correctly instructed in regard to the nature and effect of the Sacrament of Penance.

The Sacrament of Penance has, namely, a twofold power and effect. If one or more mortal sins have extinguished the light of saving grace in a soul, then a worthy confession renews this light in the cleansed soul, and with the pardoned sin the darkness that filled it vanishes. In case, however, that no mortal sin has extinguished the light of divine grace in our soul, the absolution increases the light and measure of saving grace within us, and in the same degree the light of glory in heaven for the soul sanctified by confession. How great a gain!

For instance: Two men, lying upon a sick bed, confess. If, shortly after, they both die, and their merits were equal, they would be placed equally high in heaven. If, however, on the priest returning the following day, one of them still survived, and received once more absolution, then he would be raised as high above the other in the glories of heaven as the stars are above the earth. How can one then ask: "Why should I go so often to confession?" Is not confession the most spendid opportunity to heighten the glory awaiting us in heaven by the increase of sanctifying grace? and is it not the desire of all men, artisans as well as merchants, to earn daily more and more?

Add to this that we have but one life to live, and that after this life we have never again an opportunity of drawing from this fountain of merits for heaven. Hence the foolishness of the question: "Why should I go more frequently to confession?"

You will repent it in eternity, but then it will be too late. Therefore, lose no time, and confess as often as you can. There have been saints who have confessed daily.

Some Christians say, also: Of what avail is frequent confession? we still sin. I answer: Yes, we sin; but, when we confess frequently and seriously, then we do not have mortal sin to confess, or, at any rate, not so many or so great ones as formerly. We then have only venial sin to confess; and, if we continue to confess with the same zeal, God will give us the grace to become more and more cleansed from them. Try it, and you yourself will experience the truth of this assertion.

The absurdity of this last excuse is proved by daily life. What would you say of a man who thinking himself wiser than all others, said: To wash is useless; soon after we will need washing as much as before? and, conseqently, ceased not only to wash himself, but to cut his nails or comb his hair, and never cleaned his room, always saying: It does no good. Such a man would be considered a fool, and deserve to be treated as such. Not less foolish are those who make other similar remarks about frequent confessions.

Lastly, does not confession lead us to the table of the Lord? And, hence, how dares a believing Christian ask: Wherefore frequent confessions? Is it not Christ, the Lord Himself, Whom we receive in Holy Communion after confession?

Oh, how great a happiness, how great a gain, for time and eternity! Therefore, go often and worthily to confession! Amen! (Father Francis X. Weninger, S.J., Second and Third Sermons for the Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost.)

Appendix B

On the Feast of Saint Raymond Nonnatus

Yesterday, Sunday August 31, 2025, was the Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost and the Commemoration of Saint Raymond Nonnatus, who had his lips pierced and sealed by a fire-branded lock that was put there so that he could no longer preach so effectively with Our Lady’s helps to ransom Catholics from their slavery to these bloodthirsty monsters and to effect the conversion of Mohammedans themselves.

Dom Prosper Gueranger’s account of Saint Raymond’s life demonstrates the inviolability of the seal of the confessional even if a priest has to undergo capture, torture, and execution:

August closes as it began, with a feast of deliverance; as though that were the divine seal set by Eternal Wisdom upon this month—the month when holy Church makes the works and ways of Divine Wisdom the special object of her contemplation.

Upon the fall of our first parents and their expulsion from Paradise, the Word and Wisdom of God, that is, the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity, began the great work of our deliverance—that magnificent work of human Redemption which, by an all-gracious, eternal degree of the three Divine Persons, was to be wrought out by the Son of God in our flesh. And as that blessed Savior, in his infinite wisdom, made spontaneous choice of sorrows, of sufferings, and of death on a cross as the best means of our redemption, so has he always allotted to his best loved friends the kind of life which he had deliberately chosen for himself, that is, the way of the Cross. And the nearest and dearest to him were those who were predestined, like his Blessed Mother, the Mater Dolorosa, to have the honor of being most like himself—the Man of Sorrows. Hence the toils and trials of the greatest Saints; hence the great deliverances wrought by them, and their heroic victories over the world and over the spirits of wickedness in the high places.

On the feasts of St. Raymund of Pegnafort and St. Peter Nolasco, we saw something of the origin of the illustrious Order, of which Raymund Nonnatus added such glory. Soon the august foundress herself, Our Lady of Mercy, will come in person to receive the expression of the world’s gratitude for so many benefits. The following Legend recounts the peculiar merits of our Saint of today.

Raymund, surnamed Nonnatus, on account of his having been brought into the world in an unusual manner after the death of his mother, was of a pious and noble family of Portelli in Catalonia. From his very infancy he showed signs of his future holiness; for, despising childish amusements and the attractions of the world, he applied himself to the practice of piety so that all wondered at his virtues, which far surpassed his age. As he grew older he began his studies; but after a short time he returned at his father’s command to live in the country. He frequently visited the chapel of St. Nicholas, built near Portelli, in order to venerate in it a holy image of the Mother of God, which is still more honored by the faithful. There he would pour out his prayers, begging God’s holy Mother to adopt him for her son and to deign to teach him the way of salvation and the science of the saints.

The most benign Virgin heard his prayer, and gave him to understand that it would greatly please her if he entered the Religious Order lately founded by her inspiration, under the name of the Order of “Ransom, or of Mercy for the redemption of captives.” Upon this Raymund at once set out for Barcelona, there to embrace that institute so full of brotherly charity. Thus enrolled in the army of holy religion, he persevered in perpetual virginity, which he had already consecrated to the Blessed Virgin. He excelled also in every other virtue most especially in charity towards those Christians who were living in misery, as slaves of the pagans. He was sent to Africa to redeem them, and freed many from slavery. But when he had exhausted his money, rather than abandon others who were in danger of losing their faith, he gave himself up to the barbarians as a pledge for their ransom. Burning with a most ardent desire for the salvation of souls, he converted several Mahometans to Christ by his preaching. On this account he was thrown into a close prison and after many tortures his lips were pierced through and fastened together with an iron padlock, which cruel martyrdom he endured for a long time.

This and his other noble deeds spread the fame of his sanctity far and near, so that Gregory IX determined to enroll him in the august college of the cardinals of the Holy Roman Church. When raised to that dignity the man of God shrank from all pomp and clung always to religious humility. On his way to Rome, as soon as he reached Cardona, he was attacked by his last illness, and earnestly begged to be strengthened by the Sacraments of the Church. As his illness grew worse and the priest delayed to come, Angels appeared, clothed in the religious habit of his Order, and refreshed him with the saving Viaticum. Having received It he gave thanks to God, and passed to our Lord on the last Sunday of August in the year 1240. Contentions arose concerning the place where he should be buried; his coffin was therefore placed upon a blind mule and by the will of God it was taken to the chapel of St. Nicholas, that it might be buried in that place where he had first begun a more perfect life. A convent of his Order was built in the spot, and there famous for many signs and miracles he is honored by the concourse of all the faithful of Catalonia, who come there to fulfill their vows.

To what a length, O illustrious Saint, didst thou follow the counsel of the Wise man! The bands of Wisdom, says he, are a healthful binding. And, not satisfied with putting thy feet into her fetters and thy neck into her chains, in the joy of thy love thou didst offer thy lips to the dreadful padlock, not mentioned by the son of Sirach. But what a reward is thine, now that this Wisdom of the Father, whose twofold precept of charity thou didst so fully carry out, inebriates thee with the torrent of eternal delights, adorning thy brow with the glory and grace which radiate from her own beauty! We would fain be forever with thee near that throne of light; teach us, then, how to walk in this world by the beautiful ways and peaceable paths of Wisdom. Deliver our souls, if they be still captive in sin; break the chains of our self-love, and give us instead those blessed bands of Wisdom which are humility, abnegation, self-forgetfulness, love of our brethren for God’s sake, love of God for his own sake. (Dom Prosper Gueranger, O.S.B., The Liturgical Year.)

Imitating the example of Saint Raymond Nonnatus, therefore, may we beg—yes, as in beg!—Our Lady through her Most Holy Rosary as the consecrated slaves of her Divine Son, Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, through her own Immaculate Heart to which this month of August has been dedicated to remain steadfast in defense of the truths of the Holy Faith at all times and by having nothing to do with any false religion, including conciliarism, and thus never to place oneself “una cum” the likes of Robert Francis Prevost and his band of conciliar robber barons. We must also pray to Saint Raymond Nonnatus to beg Our Lady of Ransom for us so we can be converted from our own sins and tepidity and thus scale the heights of sanctity by relying tenderly upon her maternal patronage at all times.

Appendix C

Dom Prosper Gueranger on the Feast of Saint Giles

“A simple and upright man, and fearing God, and avoiding evil:” (Job 1:8) such is the description of the just man in the lessons of the night Office for the time, and it is the portrait of the holy monk whom the Church offers us today for our admiration, our imitation, and our devotion. Fleeing from men in order to find God, he quitted his native land, where his rank, and still more his virtues, prevented him from being unknown. He wandered from the coasts of Greece to the borders of the Rhone, and stopped at length in the forests of Septimania, where he seemed to have found his desired solitude. There for three years he dwelt in a cave hidden among the brambles, spending his time in giving thanks to God and praying for the salvation of the people. (Acts S. Ægidii) He lived on herbs and water, until our Lord sent him a hind to nourish him with her milk. But his little friend was soon to betray him. One day, hard pressed by the hounds, she fled in terror to the saint, followed by the royal huntsmen. Safe with her protector her fears were calmed; but an arrow, aimed at her, pierced Saint Giles’s hand, which was never afterwards healed; for he refused to have it dressed, in order that he might bear the pain of it for the rest of his life. But a greater trial awaited him: his retreat having been thus discovered, a monastery soon rose upon the spot, and he was forced to become its abbot; moreover he worked so many miracles that crowds came to see him. Farewell to the silence and oblivion of his beloved forest!

After the death of the servant of God, the place became more and more frequented. From north and east and south pilgrims poured in, to offer up their prayers and fulfill their vows at the tomb of one, who soon became known as one of the most helpful saints in heaven (St. Giles is the only confessor in the group of fourteen saints known as helpers, whose names are given in ancient missals in the following order: George, Blase, Erasmus, Pantaleon, Vitus, Christopher, Giles, Achatus or Acathius, Denis, Cyriacus, Eustace, Catharine, Margaret, and Barbara. He was even reckoned among the five privileged saints, vis. Denis, George, Christopher, Blase, and Giles, honored in a more special manner in certain places). Among the crowds came Pontiffs (Urban II, who consecrated the altar of the basilica where the holy body rested, Gelasius II, Callistus II, Innocent II; Clement IV was born at St. Giles’s; Julius II had held the abbey in commendam) and kings (Boleslas III of Poland, and St. Louis of France). But the most numerous classes of visitors to the holy relics were soldiers and little children, the former equipped for the crusades, the latter borne in their mothers’ arms; all confiding in the humble, gentle monk who, at the risk of his life, calmed the terror of the poor little hind; all imploring his assistance against the fear which even the bravest may feel in the hour of battle, or the fright that disturbs the little one in his cradle. St. Giles’s ranked as one of the three great pilgrimages of the west; the other two being Rome and Compostello.

Over the relics of the saint was raised a colossal church, which has been described as “the most perfect type of the Byzantine style when at the height of its splendor.” (Mérimée, Notess d’un voyage dans le midi de la France.) Around it a town of thirty thousand households has sprung up, where formerly there was but a desert. The most illustrious of the powerful Counts of Toulouse gave the preference over his other titles to the one he held from this noble city; he would be known to posterity as Raymund of St. Giles. A hundred years later, Raymund VI did penance at the threshold of the celebrated basilica, for his connivance with heresy; our saint, who had just given hospitality to Peter of Castelnau for his last resting place, opened his gates for the reconciliation of the martyr’s presumed murderer.

We should never end, were we to enumerate the churches, parishes, abbeys, and altars consecrated to St. Giles, in all parts of Christendom, which are so many sources of grace, and new centers for pilgrimages. Spain, Italy, Belgium, Germany, Hungary, Bavaria, Poland, rival France in this respect. England is second to no country in the world; she has one hundred and forty-six sanctuaries dedicated to the pious monk, and even the established church continues to honor him.

Let us hasten to give the short legend that remains to the holy abbot since the sixteenth century, when his feast ceased to be celebrated with nine lessons. Most of his precious relics are preserved in the rich treasury of the church of Saint-Sernin at Toulouse; Saint-Gilles-du-Gard, which had been obliged to give them up in order to save them from the sacrilegious hands of the armed heretics, had, in 1865, the consolation of discovering his original tomb.

Giles was an Athenian, of royal race, who from his childhood applied him so earnestly to the study of divine things and to works of charity, that he seemed to care for nothing else. On his parents’ death he distributed his whole fortune among the poor; even stripping himself of his own garment in order to clothe a poor sick man, who was cured as soon as he put it on. Many other miracles soon made his name so famous, that for few of renown he fled to St. Caesarius at Arles. After two years Giles departed thence and retired into a desert, where he lived a life of wonderful holiness: his only food being the roots of herbs and the milk of a hind who came to him at fixed times. One day the hind being pursued by the royal huntsmen took refuge in his cave. Upon his discovery of the holy man, the king of France begged Giles to allow a monastery to be built on the site of the cave. At the king’s desire he was obliged, against his will, to undertake the government of this monastery; and after having, for several years, discharged that office with much piety and prudence, he passed away to heaven.

“Go to my servant … and offer for yourselves a holocaust: and my servant … shall pray for you: his face I will accept, that folly be not imputed to you.” (Job 42:8) This word is unceasingly fulfilled, O blessed Giles, in the innumerable sanctuaries where thou art honored. Make use of thy prerogatives for our benefit; hear our prayers, for the glory of Him who has crowned thy humility. In return for the beautiful peace thou didst ever preserve in thy soul, thou now hast power over the countless troubles which disturb our miserable existence, from the cradle even to the tomb. Thou aidest mothers to drive away from their babes the nightly phantoms raised by the enemy of the innocents; thou preservest the little ones from the terrible maladies to which childhood is liable. Thou watchest over the youth, to secure his good morals; and givest him the fear of God, which will make him a courageous and upright man. Thou makest him brave and calm in the midst of dangers, whether in thunderstorms or on the field of battle. Above all, thou preservest thy client from the most cowardly of all fears, that of human respect; and from the saddest kind of shame, that which would withhold him from acknowledging his sins in the sacred tribunal of Penance. The cares and disappointments of middle life do not disturb the peace of him who trusts in thee; old age has no anxious future for him; he falls into his last sleep, in the bosom of God, as in infancy he fell asleep in his mother’s arms. Deign to accept us among thy devout clients, and disappoint us not in our expectations.
