I watched as much as I could yesterday, including the dialogue with the organ. Here, the BBC commentator talked through most of the reopening, when they were not focussing on world leaders, which was annoying, as we missed the moments of silence and awe. Just seeing the Archbishop outside the main door and I began to cry. This building was going up when Abelard was still teaching in Paris, and he knew Suger!

an incredible moment

I’m curious about the connection between vaccine shedding and your wife’s cancer. How do you know that was the cause? This is not a set up to drop derision on you for being a whako of some sort. I myself have had multiple health issues, none as serious as cancer, thank God, as a result of the vaccine, but I can’t prove it. Not even to myself, at times.

Sure. First, a couple of days after the visit with the relative, my wife started experiencing the same symptoms some vaxxed women were having--weird menstrual periods with huge blood clots every two weeks or so... Then we saw an article in the NYT about what recently vaxxed women should expect--which listed her symptoms. The comments in the article were filled with unvaxxed women saying the same thing happened to them. That was conclusive as far as we were concerned. Unsurprisingly, her doctors refused to even consider it. Naomi Wolf and her team going through the Pfizer documents have confirmed all we suspected. Hopefully the new administration under Bobby Kennedy will get to the bottom of it.

Thank you! I appreciate the time you took to respond. Hopefully, we will get more answers with RFK Jr's work. I had a similar experience with doctors until I found one who was independent. There is a lot of story I could go into here, but it is nothing new, just more of the loss of friends and distancing with family who didn't believe me type stuff. I dare say it was a spiritual awakening for me, though. Anyway, I wish both you and your wife well. Thanks again.

As it so happens, this article just appeared. It was shared by Maggie Thorp, the wife of Dr. James Thorp--and the one doctor I talked to who not only believed us but has risked everything to get the word out about how bad this poison is, especially for women and pregnant mothers.

My sister-in-law received the vaccination while she was pregnant. She almost died due to preeclampsia, and my nephew was born prematurely (very early, I forget which week she was at) and stayed in the hospital for nearly a year before coming home. He still has a feeding tube which introduces food through his side into his stomach (He'll be 3 in April). He has had and will continue to have significant challenges, likely for his whole life. My brother and his wife live lives that are utterly centered on my nephew's care, and that is the way it will be for them going forward. I have often thought (but never voiced) that the reason for this outcome was a result of the vaccination. I could never say anything to them; they are likely still pro-vaccination despite everything.

Appreciate this piece and amazing videos!

Air on a G String was the only Church music I remember as a very young Pre-Vatucan II Cathloic.

Very poignant, wide-ranging reflection. Your post is the first I've seen today on the cathedral's re-opening; you're quick with the pen! I watched the liturgy on YouTube last night, and found it moving. I'll have to check out the other musical recordings.

A poignant article. Very sorry to hear of your wife's illness and the visitor/shedding.

What I'm about just to add about the Notre Dame fire may be irrelevant or obvious- just that across France and the UK there have been an incredible number of fires at cathedrals and churches.*

I hadn't thought before of the pathology of the church itself as being entwined with the fires, whether deliberate or accidental. You address the corruption and scandal. In England, all churches were shut 'for covid', some cathedrals were used as vaccination centres, in others there were prayers for the vaccine. The cultural and political attack on the past and tradition, on the beauty and intricacy of old buildings and of nature itself, plays a part in this too.

(PS When you refer to the 'pandemic', would you not say that there was never a pandemic of anything? The flu statistics disappeared and were matched by 'covid' cases. Where I live loads of us got a cold with a cough that went on for weeks in late 2019 and January 2020. But it was no worse than a 'bad flu' year. The use of the word 'pandemic' for the lockdown years seems to play along with the 'covid' narrative (and the definition was changed by the WHO beforehand).)

*A source for UK was easy to find

but I drew a blank on data for France because the search was full of funded 'fact checks' which is revealing in itself.

Thanks for your comments about my wife. She's okay now.

I only call it a "pandemic" as a signifier. The stats for "flu" for that year being almost down to nothing proves what a joke the medical establishment is (and has been for Lord knows how long). Also, not a few churches in Canada were torched. But the self-immolation of bishops and popes on the altar of secular approval is what really gets me. I can't get over it.

On the same page as always my dear friend, thank you.
