The FASCIST-ZIONIST New Regime of Donald Trump and Stephen Miller has ended whatever was left of " OUR democracy " . Most CHRISTIAN Americans are not CHRISTIAN Zionists or Christian Nationalists foaming at the mouth for APOCALYPSE NOW and nuclear World War III . And they are smothering with resentment at ZIONIST Jew censorship of American public opinion .

"As SNAP benefits pause, Congress tightens the qualifications "
I am a 78 year old single man living on social security , Medicare and Medicaid in a modest studio apartment in the Randall Manor, building B , 75 Mathewson St. , under the Cranston Housing Authority. For more than 10 years I have received the maximum, or slightly less, SNAP benefits from the State of Rhode Island . After diligently filling out the last forms , I received NOTICE on March 2 that my benefits will be reduced starting next month to $40 .00 per month! How many senior citizens in Rhode Island have just had their SNAP benefits cut by nearly $200.00 in the HOPE State of Rhode Island . And just consider that food prices have nearly doubled in the past five years ! Or am I a special case ??? May I politely request an EXPLANATION here ? ( computer error or cold blooded , hard hearted bureaucrat butcher job - well rewarded ? I share this comment on my blog and Facebook Page and will send it as a letter to the editor of the Boston Globe and the Providence Journal.
Does Catholic Church Derangement Syndrome makes this a better world ?
Does Catholic Church Derangement Syndrome make this a better world ?
The WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party leaning mainstream news media in OUR democracy - in alliance with the New Atheism Cult New Hate group- is distracting the public- in every which way- from the mess in this country and in our HOPE State of Rhode Island, the mess created by capitalism, American imperialism and Israeli Zionism. These are stale old stories of child sex abuse scandals in the Catholic Church. This heinous SIN is found at every level of society. Fresher news is the Jeffrey Epstein child abuse sex scandals involving the upper strata of American society . ZIONIST Jew Epstein and Jewess Maxwell were even spies for APARTHEID Israel. Does Catholic Church Derangement Syndrome make this a better world for children for anybody ? How can anybody in Rhode Island say that the news media here does not regularly show persistent bias against the Catholic Church ? I consider myself a democratic socialist and pre-Vatican II type Catholic unimpressed with post-Vatican II WOKE Catholic Church. A WOKE Catholic Church is a JOKE Catholic Church. Nevertheless DOMINUS VOBISCUM ! This comment is shared on my blog and my Facebook page.

"Finally Found It: The PERFECT Anti-Religion Argument Ever (Neil deGrasse Tyson)
The New Atheism Cult New Hate group and the American capitalist Culture of Narcissism has underemployed astrophysicist ( most famous for demoting Little Planet Pluto out of the Sun's family ) Neil deGrasse Tyson in his element . In his nth Atheist evangelist You Tube lecture Tyson " devastates " once again God and Religion . But FAITH remains !
Recalling the corrupt Catholic priest Father James Corapi
VIDEO NOW: " Bishop Bruce Lewandowski delivers Diocese of Providence's response to the Attorney Genera "
As a pre-Vatican II type Catholic I think that the Anti-Christ inspired Vatican II reforms deprived the " Rock of Peter " with its 2000 year aura of sacred mystique and gravitas .The decadent atmosphere in the reformed Catholic seminaries ( read " Catholic Family News ) mass produced the then young generation of seedy WOKE priests ( not the constrained, self-controlled homosexuals , often saint like , of the classic Catholicism of the Middle Ages ) . Year after year in the decades following Vatican II their Sunday sermons became more and more vacuous and vulgar ( even pronouncing their own blessing on Israeli Zionism ! ) . Little respect was shown for the Holy Eucharist ritual. The " New Catholic Priest " , as a type , wanted to be seen not as a self -respecting " man of God but as a consciously uninspiring " regular guy " but with Johnny Carson comedy talent when speaking from the pulpit . Hearing their sermons now and then , I would think : " Well, if you're such a regular guy [ with your green T--shirt and foul mouth ] you really had no business becoming a Catholic priest.. The perfect model of this " New Catholic Priest " was the disgraced " celebrity priest " Father John Corapi . Scandalously siding with American militarism at the time of the disastrous Iraq War , Father Corapi told an audience that " Mother Mary wears combat boots " . This was the voice of the Catholic Church branch of so called " Christian Nationalism " You might thinking I am blaming all the child abuse sex scandals of all these multi- Catholic Church dioceses on the spirit of Vatican II . But not quite . There was also the inevitable , hell damning role of wicked SIN
"Christopher Hitchens: How Atheists Should Fight Back in a Religious World "
Here is how the New Atheist New Hate group WILL " fight back " in a religious world . They ally themselves with the WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party of the United States controlled by ZIONIST Jews like odd couple Chuck Schumer and phony " socialist " Bernie Sanders . The WOKE Democrats rarely miss an opportunity to mock the Catholic Church and Christianity in general - while being deliriously Islamophobic . On February 28 the FASCIST-ZIONIST New Regime of Donald Trump and Stephen Miller started World War III with its attacks on Iran . THEIR war will be even less popular than the Vietnam War of the " Tumultuous Sixties " era . But I do not expect to see any " New Atheism " banners in the coming mass protest demonstrations in " OUR democracy ". Oddly enough , a sector of Christian Nationalism seems to be getting fed up with with the entrenched JEWISH Nationalism " -better known as ZIONISM - of the Trump - Miller New Regime in Washington , DC. These " Christian Nationalists " were naive enough to see candidate Trump as THE peace maker !
"Christian Caller Needs to Know Why We REJECT His Holy Book | Seth Andrews & Aaron Adair "
One point against the New Atheism Cult New Hate group is that they make themselves useless in the struggle of the masses, religious or irreligious, against the SOCIAL evil of capitalism , American imperialism, and Israeli Zionism . It looks like the WASP front man for " Greater Israel " , American president Donald Trump , started World War III on February 28 . But so-called " Christian Nationalism " had nothing to do with it . From the beginning it was the brain project of secular ZIONIST Jews closer to the militant atheist , belligerent ZIONIST Jew Ayn Rand than to any Bible thumper of the Elmer Gantry tradition. The inner core of Zionism see " Christian Zionists " and so-called " Christian Nationalists " as proverbial useful idiots. Fearing that the " Christian Nationalists " might develop their own agenda , " liberal " ZIONIST Jews in the WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party distance themselves from them ( Imagine an " Onward Christian Soldiers " crusade to reconquer the Holy Land for fundamentalist CHRISTIANITY - with WASP Trump breaking with Netanyahu ? ) .
" I Wanted there to Be a God, But there Isn’t
Oddly enough , the New Atheism Cult New Hate group has seemingly forged an alliance with the WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party in daily mocking Christianity , Catholicism in particular , religion in general , belief in God in general . And it does seem that your sophomoric LOGIC & REASON needs the back up support of the ZIONIST Jew censorship of American public opinion. If you are one of many people in the Post Age of Faith who cannot believe in God , do you feel compelled to bludgeon BELIEVERS with your non -belief daily on YouTube ? Would you like " official atheism " ( a pillar of the evil Stalinist era in Russia ) to be the law of the land in " OUR democracy " ? Many profound thinkers , poets, philosophers, scientists, musicians , have found DIVINE inspiration , have discovered God in their own way . There have been Catholic saints who exude the Holy Spirit . This will no doubt get a snarky one liner sound bite from some " deep thinker " , dime store " village atheist ". Anyway, in " OUR democracy most people believe in God or don't believe in God without making public asses out of themselves. To be sure , malevolent miserable atheism will not save the world .

Pieces for the My Turn feature should be no more than 600 words, including a short bio of the writer. If it's best run on a particular day -- for instance, a piece about a specific holiday -- send it a couple of weeks before desired publication. We are often working well ahead.
Letters to the editor should be no more than 250 words; we prefer 150 or fewer. Include your full name (not an alias), full address and phone number.
For both My Turns and letters, copy the text into the body of the email; don't attach a file of any kind.
And please know that we get far more submissions for both letters and My Turn than we can publish. Because of the volume, we can't respond to each individually. If we don't publish yours, it's simply because there are others that seem more urgent.

"3 Religions Are Praying Right Now — While Bombs Drop on ALL of Them "
The political order of the world - presently shaped by global capitalism , American imperialism , and Israeli Zionism- is in no way shaped by any of the world's great religions. The New Atheism Cult New Hate group foolishly thinks that if by some miracle ( ? ) the masses stop believing in God , stop supporting organized religion , then this SOCIAL EVIL can rule the world more effectively, can exploit and oppress the masses more effectively ? THEY loathe the idea of a very real God vetoing their malevolent agenda. As a long time independent democratic socialist and a pre-Vatican II type Catholic I see how ironic it is that so- called " Christian Nationalists " have selected the world proclaimed war criminal , ZIONIST Jew leader of APARTHEID Israel , Benjamin Netanyahu, as THEIR infallible Pope . And WASP American president Trump is his front man and disciple in " OUR democracy " . I still prefer the Catholic Pope Leo XIV in Rome on matters of moral guidance . Last time I checked he was not blessing " CHRIST CRUCIFIED " genocide in Gaza, Palestine . I notice that the New Atheist Cult Hate group refrains from applying their overestimated LOGIC & REASON to capitalism , American imperialism , and Israeli Zionism. All that mental energy devoted to vacuous God- denying !
