Biden met with Pope Francis in Vatican City behind closed doors. The topic of abortion did not come up, the president told reporters afterward. “We just talked about the fact that he was happy that I was a good Catholic,” he claimed. Asked if the pope said he should keep receiving communion, POTUS said “yes.” Biden has been in danger of being denied communion since the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops in June voted to approve the drafting of a document relating to how abortion supporters should be treated. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), another Catholic who supports abortion, was told the following month that “no one can claim to be a devout Catholic and condone the killing of innocent human life, let alone have the government pay for it.”

Judge Blocks Biden Admin From Firing Unvaccinated Employees With Pending Religious Exemptions – Epoch Times
In their complaint, the plaintiffs wrote that “plaintiffs along with hundreds of thousands of other federal employees and active-duty service members will be terminated, discharged or separated on or before November 22, 2021.” “The Biden administration has shown an unprecedented, cavalier attitude toward the rule of law and an utter ineptitude at basic constitutional contours,” the plaintiffs’ attorney Michael Yoder told the network after Kollar-Kotelly’s ruling. Describing this mandate as “dangerous to American liberty,” Yoder said that “our Constitution protects and secures the right to remain free from religious persecution and coercion.”
The Ignoble Lie – Epoch Times Commentary by Victor Davis Hanson
[Hanson makes his point by critiquing the lies of eleven government leaders] …Fauci was hiding his own culpability, or he believed the American people might not be able to fully accept that some of their own health officials were promoting the sort of research that was partially responsible for more than 700,000 American deaths. …Apparently, Mayorkas believes the public would go ballistic or his own administration would be roundly despised, if he told the bitter truth about the border: by intent, the Biden administration has apparently deliberately left it wide open. …James Comey lied under oath on multiple occasions in congressional cross-examinations and claimed he did not know or could not remember basic facts about his own role in promoting the Russian collusion hoax. [Several other leaders are critiqued by Hanson as he exposes commonly known lies – commonly known to those who follow real news sources]
Biden Administration Expands List of ‘Sensitive’ Places Where Immigration Officers Cannot Make Arrests – Epoch Times
President Joe Biden’s top homeland security official on Wednesday ordered immigration officers not to arrest illegal immigrants at a number of places, including food banks and shelters. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas detailed the safe spaces for illegal aliens in a memorandum to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers. “Sensitive locations” where officers were barred from detaining people in the country illegally previously constituted of a small number of settings, including churches, hospitals, and schools. The locations are now being referred to as “protected areas.” Mayorkas added social services establishments like homeless shelters, anywhere disaster or emergency relief is being provided, and places where children gather, including playgrounds, childcare centers, and school bus stops…

What is wrong with the United Nations, should we withdraw?; Questioner asked who pays the most taxes: Top 1% pay 40%; the next 9% of population with the top 1% together pay 70% of total federal tax; the next 29% pay the balance; 61% pay NO taxes; the top 1% includes those who earn $540 thousand and up; A questioner asked about “camps” being set up in the US, Curtis answered the question without elaborating on what camps she was referring to but I got the impression it was camps that would be occupied by those who dissent from the narrative of the left, as in China
COVID Killed Common Sense – Epoch Times Commentary
I can’t escape COVID restrictions. Irrespective of my vaccination status, my personal risk profile, or my individual desires, they follow me everywhere. I live in New York City. I can’t go into a subway, coffee shop, gym, museum, restaurant, or college class without confronting them. But, with time, the precautions have made less and less sense. …If you’ve been thinking critically throughout the pandemic, you know the feeling of being let down consistently, of losing faith in the institutions you thought you could trust.
Health Care Workers Speak Out on Why They Would Rather Lose Their Jobs Than Take a COVID-19 Vaccine – Epoch Times
“Health care workers are not taking it because they know that the side effects are real. In urgent care, I have seen myocarditis, cellulitis, [and] unusual neurological symptoms, among a variety of other side effects. I have seen people very ill post-vaccine, and then go on to test positive. The positivity rate for contracting COVID on the vaccinated is very high per the recent studies and what I am seeing in my clinic. A vaccine should work, and it is not working. It should be tested for years on something other than humans before we call it ‘safe and effective.’ There have been over 15,000 deaths from the vaccine that the media is not talking about. I will never take that risk on myself,” Zubiate said. …“I have a master’s degree in nursing and am employed as a professor of nursing research and evidence-based practice. I am skilled in collecting and analyzing data and in drawing conclusions. I did not rely on the media, government, or Big Tech for any of my health care decisions prior to COVID-19 and I have no plans to change course.
A Better Sacrifice – Pastor Patrick Ramsey
In his 24 minute sermon, Pastor Ramsey clarified the great differences between the old covenant and the new covenant. The net result of Jesus’ better sacrifice is that as the mediator of this new covenant His sacrifice is final, complete, effective and powerful. But those words are empty if you have no understanding of the covenants and how they differ; and what blessings the new covenant holds for believers. Please listen and bolster your knowledge of the entire Bible
Only Bad People Can Go To Heaven; That Is, You Must Know You Are A Sinner….
The following short sermon was preached today by Alistair Begg; he titled it, The Crown Of Righteousness. I got the above title from a statement he made during the sermon – those words should appeal to people who may believe they are too bad for heaven; that is, they could be helped greatly by hearing what Begg had to say.
