That Christianity gives joy and breadth is also a thread that runs through my whole life. Ultimately someone who is always only in opposition could not endure life at all.

Day's Links:
The big news today of course concerns what happened in Paris yesterday. Unlike the incident earlier this year in which the magazine publisher's were shot - without much sympathy from me to be honest, and certainly no empathy (at least towards those involved with the magazine) - this incident is likely to change the political mood in France and, hopefully, much of Europe.
In time I hope to write more about that but my first reactions are that there is plenty of blame to go around. In fact, pretty much everybody is to blame, apart from traditional Catholics and me!
If you have been voting for these traitors who have worked overtime to de-Christianise Europe, their latest efforts being through multiculturalism, you are to blame. If you have supported the wars by France and the other Western nations which have killed untold more people than those who died yesterday, you are to blame. If you have supported overthrowing rulers who kept these countries in balance - often with the help of Islamists - you are to blame. If you think nations are acrcane notions at best, or silly lines on a map worst, that social cohesion is a comfort best discarded then you are to blame.
If you are a protestant then you are a lukewarm cafeteria Christian, responsible for tearing the foundation of Europe apart, and are to blame. If you are a secularist then you are responsible for being under the illusion that one can have a space devoid of conviction and still achieve harmony, and you are to blame. If you are a Catholic who never goes to Church and compromises with the words of Christ, you are to blame. If you are a Novus Ordo Catholic who defends Vatican II and the destruction it has wrought on Europe and the Church then you are to blame. If you are of any sort who supports the culture of death through aprroval of or egangement in contraception, abortion, fornication, sodomitical relationships, divorce, you are to blame: You have bought into the culture of death and have little to hold up against Islamists to see that what used to be Christendom is there for the taking, having been hollowed out from within. You support severing the spines and heads of babies, and have no reason to recoil in horror when the Islamists do the same.
Traditional Catholics do not advocate for foreign wars. Traditional Catholics defend the Christian foundation of Europe. Traditional Catholics know that if the public space is devoid of the light of the Gospel, the darkness of Islam, atheism, socialismn, communism, totalitarianism - in short, the culture of death - will take hold. Traditional Catholics revere life as all humans have an immortal soul, of infinite value to God and would not sell their homeland for a few home comforts and happier loins, resorting to severing the children who are produced because they are incovenient, for whatever reason.
There is a video on the Internet named "With Open Gates: The forced collective suicide of European nations". Anybody who is in favour of multiculturalism should watch that video and ask themselves: Is there no backlash on the way? Do I want to be responsible for the bloodshed that will come when the inevitable backlash is unleashed?
The time for asking who is to blame has long passed. The question now ought to be: How much am I to blame?
As the article on Rorate Caeli today states: "Pray for France. At the end of this century it will be either Catholic or Muslim, there is no third option; but whatever the end result, the process will be painful and awful. God help the Eldest Daughter!"
It will be painful indeed.
We are all to blame, apart from traditional Catholics, and me!
