What will solve the immoral madness that has seized the world today? The Western world is largely responsible for fostering various sexual deviance, abortion, sterilizations, child predation, anti-marriage and family, fatherless homes, drug overdose, and various other immoralities.
There
are at least two key fronts by which this hellish trajectory can be altered.
#1:
The Church restores moral authority
Abortion
and various sexual, economic, and societal indecencies have infected the world,
in a particular way, the West (predominantly North America, Western Europe, and
Australia). The primary and non-negotiable path to save the moral
decadence in the West must come from the Church. The current generation of
papacy and bishops is largely infected with a secular bent hostile to truth and
tradition.
Our Lady
of Akita in 1973, fifty years ago, prophesied:
The
work of the devil will infiltrate even into the Church in such a way that one
will see cardinals opposing cardinals, bishops against bishops. The priests who
venerate me will be scorned and opposed by their confreres.
In
recent days, we’ve seen no less. One archbishop called out a Cardinal’s acceptance of sexual
perversion at the divine liturgy,
another archbishop called out a
Cardinal’s heresy on sexuality,
another Cardinal called out the bishops of Germany for openly
embracing heresy,
and holy priests remain persecuted and removed unjustly from ministry by
their own bishops.
Even the Pope is in contradiction to his predecessors and Vatican council fathers on the liturgy and otherwise. Cardinal Zen
this week called to the attention of bishops the revolutionary sexual deviance
promoted by the German bishops, allowed by the Pope to persist to date, and
warning that a goal of some at the “Synod on Synodality” is “sexual morality
different from that of Catholic Tradition.”
The sex
abuse scandal, predominantly victimizing young
males, continues
to come to light. Liturgical abuses are all too common. Pagan influence permeates the current hierarchy.
The secrecy of the sex abuse scandal has moved to secrecy in “cancelling” good priests. And there are
other scandals throughout the Church hierarchy, sadly too numerous to
enumerate.
Meanwhile,
a supermajority of “Catholics” are apparently contracepting against the moral order. Only a
small minority agree fully with the Church on abortion. Suicides are hitting record highs. Teen depression is spiking. In the past several
years, youth have been conditioned to embrace heterodox sexuality
to the point that 20% of Gen Z thinks they are
“nonbinary.”
Such
tragically off-course results coincide with a Church hierarchy too silent on
orthodoxy, morality and the meaning of the human person, marriage, life,
sexuality, and humility. Instead of feeding the flock a foundation for virtues,
they largely act as “a disciple of the world,” as Msgr. Charles Pope recently
described the suspect “Synod on Synodality.”
As long
as all these scandals and improprieties are permitted or endorsed by the Pope
and hierarchy, the entire world will suffocate and decay under their poisons. The
sanctification of the world is dependent on the sanctity of the Church.
“The
world and the church are in a mess because we priests have failed to be as holy
as we are called to be,” said Father John Corapi in 1997 at a retreat for
priests and seminarians.
Dr. Edward Feser, professor of philosophy and
scholastic, recently observed (emphasis added):
A
mark of the diabolical disorder of our times is that we face grave problems (in
Church, state, education, etc.) which can be solved only by those with
the relevant authority, while at the same time largely having the worst
possible people occupying those positions of authority.
Finally,
restoration of the Latin may be a lynchpin to restoring sanity in the world.
The Traditional Latin Mass’s promotion of family and anthropological realities
are especially what today’s world not only lacks but often abhors.
Exorcist
Fr. Chad Ripperger F.S.S.P. stated:
It is safe to say that, objectively speaking, with respect to the ritual itself, the old rite of Mass has an ability to merit more than the new rite of Mass. While this merit is accidental, since the essential or intrinsic merit of the Mass, which is the Sacrifice of Christ, is the same in both rites, it is nevertheless something serious. Since the faithful are the beneficiaries of the fruits derived from this aspect of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, we have a grave obligation to consider the impact that this factor may be having on the life of the Church.

A parallel change in rites also occurred in the wake of the Second Vatican Council, namely the rite of exorcism. While some exorcists deny a difference in efficacy of the older or new exorcism rites, the late Fr. Gabriel Amorth, exorcist of Rome, decried the new exorcism rite and obtained a dispensation to perform the rite rooted in antiquity from 1614.
On the
new rite of exorcism, Fr. Amorth said, “Efficacious prayers, prayers that had
been in existence for twelve centuries, were suppressed and replaced by new ineffective
prayers.” Another anonymous exorcist stated of the new rite: “The new
rite will one day itself be subject to a true restoration, which will restore
to the obligatory texts of the exorcist the true nature of his office.”
These
changes in liturgical and exorcism rites coincide both with the aftermath of
the Council and immoral norms of the cultural and sexual revolution from the
1960s and 1970s. The evidence shows that a restoration to Latin in liturgy and
exorcism will restrict the current hold the devil and his minions have on the
world today.
Ultimately,
moral decadence will persist until the Church leads the way back to sanity.
#2:
The East and Global South move the West to reverse course
Related
to the Church dimension is a secondary political one. In the U.S., the current
Administration is using a form of financial terrorism against states that do
not submit to “LGBT” ideology by withholding school lunch funding that is available to states that
do submit.
Western
nations also use economic penalties (or even military penalties) to obtain
their social demands as an international policy. While Eastern or Southern
nations are not immune to corruption, the West had traditionally operated with
a brand of freedom and human prosperity. Those days have vanished. The East and
South at least appear to have a greater aversion to the degree of moral depravity
in the West.
The
West’s accelerating deterioration has been noticed around the world. The
following is a small sample of countries condemning Western economic and social
immorality.
- Bharatiya Janata Party (Indian People’s Party)
recently issued a statement: “A valid marriage is only between a biological
male and biological woman… any equality offered to same-sex couples goes
against religious values and seriously affects the interests of every citizen.”
Indian citizens also reject the idea to modernize by “follow[ing] Western
culture.”
- The
group of countries forming what is known as BRICS are allying in large
part to insulate themselves from Western sanctions by way of “de-dollarization.” These sanctions are often
imposed against countries that do not embrace the West’s sexual proclivities.
The West openly admits this, citing a nation’s “climate
of intolerance” as grounds for “financial sanctions, visa restrictions, and
other actions.” The U.S. currently even has a bill, HR4422, with the intention “To impose
sanctions on foreign persons responsible for violations of internationally
recognized human rights against lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and
intersex (LGBTQI) individuals, and for other purposes.”
- In
June,130 African signatories wrote to the U.S. Congress
warning against funding immorality in Africa. They wrote:
[W]e
want to express our concerns and suspicions that this funding is supporting
so-called family planning and reproductive health principles and practices,
including abortion, that violate our core beliefs concerning life, family, and
religion.
Nations
represented included: Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, Malawi, Namibia,
Nigeria, Rwanda, Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.
- Japanese citizens are opposing so-called LGBT politics because “thanks to” the West,
they have seen its “horror.”
- On
the current U.S. government’s abuse of the Department of Justice, the President of El Salvador
observed:
“Sadly, it’ll be very hard for US Foreign Policy to use arguments such as
‘democracy’ and ‘free and fair elections’, or try to condemn ‘political
persecution’ in other countries, from now on”.
- At
the start of the conflict in Ukraine, Russian Orthodox Patriarch Kirill stated there was a link between
Western moral values and the war. “For eight years there have been attempts to
destroy what exists in Donbas. And in Donbas there is a rejection, a
fundamental rejection of the so-called values that are offered today by those
who claim world power.” He added that having “pride parades” showed a “test of
loyalty” to Western sexual propaganda. “[I]n order to join the club of those countries,
you have to have a gay pride parade.”
- In
November, Russia passed a law criminalizing, among other things,
propaganda for “promoting non-traditional sexual relations,” sex-change
operations, and pedophilia. Vyacheslav
Volodin, deputy of the Russian State Duma, commented: “This decision will protect our children and the future of the country
from the darkness spread by the United States and European states. We have our
own traditions and values.”
- In
February, Russian President Vladimir Putin delivered a speech that proved
internationally popular, emphasizing Western notability’s sexual predation of
children.
Look
what [the Western elite] are doing to their own people. It is all about the
destruction of the family, of cultural and national identity, perversion and
abuse of children, including pedophilia, all of which are declared normal in
their life. They are forcing the priests to bless same-sex marriages. … Millions
of people in the West realize that they are being led to a spiritual
disaster. Frankly, the elite appear to have gone crazy, and it looks like
there is no cure for that. But like I said, these are their problems, while we
must protect our children, which we will do. We will protect our children
from degradation and degeneration.
Meanwhile, Western leaders specifically state that “lgbt” issues are a primary factor in Western opposition to Russia in Ukraine. Four days after Putin’s speech, the Chief of the UK Secret Intelligence Service (MI6) Robert Moore said: “With the tragedy and destruction unfolding so distressingly in Ukraine, we should remember the values and hard won freedoms that distinguish us from Putin, none more than LGBT+ rights.”
- Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs
Sergei Lavrov also cited the West’s exportation of its sexual requirements.
“[T]he
[West’s] “rules” concept also manifests itself in attempts to encroach on the
very human nature. In a number of Western countries, students learn at school
that Jesus Christ was bisexual. Attempts by reasonable politicians to shield
the younger generation from aggressive LGBT propaganda are met with
bellicose protests from the ‘enlightened Europe.’ All world religions, the
genetic code of the planet’s key civilizations, are under attack. The United
States is at the forefront of state interference in church affairs, openly
seeking to drive a wedge into the Orthodox world, whose values are viewed as a
powerful spiritual obstacle for the liberal concept of boundless
permissiveness.
- In March, a Western ambassador from Germany traveled to the African nation of Namibia to criticize them on their growing Chinese population. The Namibian Head of State, Hage Geingob, responded sternly. “Why has this become your problem?” He contrasted the way Namibians are treated poorly in Germany versus how their relations with the Chinese are faring. “[O]ur people are being bullied in Germany. … Talk about Germans. How do you treat us there? The Chinese don’t treat us like this.”
- In
September, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad also
spoke of turning attention to China as a result of Western economic sanctions: “[M]ost
countries in the world are looking forward to the Chinese yuan transforming
into an international currency, since the dollar is the West’s weapon against
developing countries.”
- In
a November 2021 interview with British media, Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko
issued strong condemnation of the West’s tactics. “I really don’t care what
they think of me in England or in the USA or EU. Because the whole world has
seen what you’re really like.” And, referring to Western interference in Belarus 2020 elections and possibly an alleged
attempted assassination attempt in 2021, he added, “What
business of yours are our elections? We don’t interfere in the UK or America,
in your home, why did you come to ours and start to smash it up?”
- In
March, the president of Uganda, Yoweri Museveni finished a
speech on economic policy with a comment on Western interference: “On the issue
of homosexuals, we shall get time and discuss it thoroughly… The western
countries should stop wasting the time of humanity by trying to impose their
practices on other peoples.”
- Brazil’s president Luiz Inácio Lula da
Silva explicitly condemned the United States’ role in fueling the Ukraine
conflict. “It is necessary that the U.S. stops stimulating the war and talk
about peace,” he said in April. Leaked documents pertaining to Russia and
Brazil apparently refer to an “the West’s ‘aggressor-victim’ paradigm,” which echoes a
sentiment that the West is the aggressor in many international conflicts while
claiming to be on defense.
- Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban
recognized both the West’s interference in elections and propagandization of
its sexual distortions. He said “the [EU] federalists are trying to squeeze us out.
They openly wanted a change in government in Hungary.” He added: “The EU
rejects Christian heritage, carries out a replacement of its population via
migration ... and conducts an LGBTQ offensive.”
- A
member of Poland’s parliament, Kacper Plazynski,
rejected Britain’s criticism of Poland’s efforts to promote the traditional
family. “I am enormously disappointed in the unit of the UK’s Home Office which
fell for propaganda of a trivial radical left activist about alleged Polish
discrimination of gays.” Hinting at Britain’s interference, he added. “It is up
to Polish people to decide the shape and form of the Polish constitution.”
- “This
is the path of Venezuela and the path of a free economy where currencies
are not used to punish countries and impose sanctions,” said Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro in May, promising
to abandon the U.S. dollar. “The
de-dollarization of global trade is an unavoidable reality that we are
currently witnessing. The era of unjust sanctions and economic manipulations
that harm the people is coming to an end.”
- The
concept of gay “marriage” is overwhelmingly rooted in Western governments as
this map illustrates.
- In
April, a dignitary from the Bahamas vehemently decried England’s
effort to push perversion in schools:
You
can't come in my country teaching my children foolishness. Don't come in
this country. Now you want to be in England, you can teach them all the boogery
things you want to teach them in England. But not in the Bahamas. Don't bring that
around here. And I also want to say to all you parents, all you parents who
have been emailing me, texting me, listen, you all get ready. Because the time
will come when all of us are going to have to stand up to protect our
children. I think we have to show this government. Because what this
government is doing is testing the water to see if we pass it, if we're benign
and going to let it slide. We will not let it slide. Not one filthy book
will be let in our classrooms and our libraries. I'm going to lead the
charge. When I say let's go, I need you all to let's go. Because I ain't
letting it happen.
- In
July 2023, 21 international endocrinologists signed a letter
condemning “the politicization
of transgender healthcare in the U.S.”
Examples
could go on and on. But this is a flavor for the global resistance to Western
immoralities.
Jeffrey
Sachs, economist and former UN advisor, recently commented on the West’s
dangerous path:
The
US is seen for what it is, which is, you know, most of the world saying we
don't want to be led by you. Thank you. We'd like to trade with you, would like
to cooperate. We don't want to be bombed by you. Thank you. … But we don't want
to follow you or have your sanctions regime and so on. … I do think that the
weight of the world opinion really coming together to say, come on stop
already, is actually going to, one way or another, make the difference.
I hope it makes the difference.
If the
East and global South are sincere in their rejection of Western immorality,
this could pose a problem for those immoralities to persist, even in the West. The
current BRICS nations have surpassed the Western-led G20 nations in global GDP. BRICS also stands to control 80% of the world’s oil production. The West may well
have to back off their insane immoral propaganda and child abuse if they want
any part of commerce that will otherwise be insulated from their control. Or
the West can stay the course and be king of the ashes gathering underfoot.
