Dear Miguel,
It is appropriate that this scuffling happened (1) during the Octave of Christmas to highlight how far we as a people are from the ideals exemplified by Christ.
These "keepers of the faith" are the pompous brethren who heap burdens on us, yet at least with the Roman Catholic Church high command, steadfastly refuse to routinely include in every Mass an invocation to "pray for our enemies and those who persecute us."
As you have pointed out repeatedly, these people do not believe in Jesus Christ.
If they did, they would act as He did.
Is is any wonder that God had to send Elijah to properly prepare the way for the Second Coming of His Son?
Peace

Priests scuffle inside Bethlehem church
BETHLEHEM, West Bank - Robed Greek Orthodox and Armenian priests went at each other with brooms and stones inside the Church of the Nativity on Thursday as long-standing rivalries erupted in violence during holiday cleaning.
The basilica, built over the grotto in Bethlehem where Christians believe Jesus was born, is administered jointly by Roman Catholic, Greek Orthodox and Armenian Apostolic authorities. Any perceived encroachment on one group's turf can set off vicious feuds.

With the confirmed and even handed history reports of Institutional Catholicism - West (Rome)
(1) and East (Orthodox) (2); with the likes
(3) of "Cardinal" Mahoney from LA having to "Rob Peter to pay (for the
fondling of) Paul", so to speak, and fools like those "holy" priests acting in such manner
(4) - why is anyone surprised of the mockery and scorn piled upon
Catholicism - West (Rome) and East (Orthodox)?
We must pray incessantly (5) so that more and more people understand the difference between the pristine Catholic Faith (6) and the truckload of gangsters who have been administering it for centuries (7) and continue, utilizing different venues, to rape and plunder using the Holiest of Names - Jesus Christ - as a cover.
We further pray that - for the protection of the innocent (8), whose Faith may be harmed by these seemingly eternal shenanigans - God, in His infinite Mercy, without further delay rid the world of those who have abused (7) His Holy Name and profited from, instead of obeying, the loving calls from our Heavenly Mother (9) to "...come back to Her Son" meaning "...come back to the Gospel", a Gospel which was jettisoned as soon as the tinkling sound of Constantine's coins (10) was heard that the Council of Nicaea.
Let us continue to pray and partake of all Sacraments (11) when they are dispensed by a worthy Minister of God.
P.S. If you believe that we continue to live an alternate reality, take a look at a very special gift promotion the very "holy" New Oxford Review. (12)

Subject: Pakistan's Bhutto murdered - Surprise, surprise?
News Quote:
Many chanted slogans against Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf and the United States, which has long backed the former army general in the hope he can maintain stability in the nuclear-armed country racked by Islamist violent.
"Shame on the killer Musharraf, shame on the killer U.S." mourners cried, as her husband, Asif Ali Zardari, accompanied the closed coffin draped with the green, red and black tricolor of Bhutto's Pakistan People's Party on the funeral procession to the mausoleum in the village of Garhi Khuda Bakhsh.
Comments:
Surprised? Why should we be? Who will benefit the most from this?
1. This action will ensure Musharraf's win at the upcoming election.
2. It will be "solid" proof that Al-Qaeda "continues to be a major threat" in Pakistan and, thus, to the US
3. Just as Gen. Petraeus clearly stated in Iraq a couple of day ago. A preamble to this?
4. Which will justify the past massive funding for Musharraf the Bush Adm. has been defending and which will certainly continue now to ensure that Musharraf stays in power and "protecting Americans" from Al-Qaeda
5. All of which will be used to convince the masses that Iran must be attacked to eliminate the Al-Qaeda threat.
6. Which in turn will convince Americans that the next US Administration must match the stripes of the current Administration so that there is no change in course of US Foreign Policy "...for our own good!"
7. So that the plans carefully laid out years, and years ago (1) continue to unfold in spite of some major upsets such as the Clinton Administration (2) - which was intended to be the second Bush Sr. Administration.
8. If Kennedy & Co. were expendable (3), as part of the same and only conspiracy, who isn't'?

It is all so transparent, yet, that is not what symbolically cause fire and brimstone to pour out miguel's ears and nostrils. All of that is expected form those who think they know the way to "Save the World" (4) - what causes miguel to "go volcanic" is to see those who should know better - not only in the US but globally speaking, - happily "buy into" such transparent manipulation as drool continues to drip off their chins.
The second cause for this symbolically "localized volcanic action" is that those who do not know any better - whose main concern is to secure a few ounces of drinkable water in one day, or find something to eat that would keep their already frail bodies going, or who have a real medical reason to have drool dripping off their chins - May God protect them most specially, we pray! - will have to physically endure (5) the brunt of what is to come. (6)
But first, we must pray incessantly for the conspirators for they truly do not know what they are doing (7), and then, for the innocent victims (7) of society's parasites.

From RC @ USA - Published on December 26th, 2007 [Solemnity of St. Stephen - First Martyr A.C.]
Dear Miguel,
Thank you for this wonderful Christmas Gift! (1)
It says it all when it asks, "What can I give him, I am so poor . . .,"
We are all very poor and hopelessly in debt to God, but, we can and should give Him our hearts. After all, He did give us His Heart.
On a somber note, Blessings to you on This Feast of Saint Stephen.
Today is a reminder, a wake up call, to the reality that although Christ came in Peace and preached The Good News, such was not appreciated by those of power in this world and not only did they despise Him and His followers, they tried and succeeded in killing Him and many of His Disciples.
Most of the world did not and still does not get it. If there is to be Peace, let it begin with me.
Blessings to you and your family in This Octave of Christmas!
Peace
RC

Dear Miguel -
On this Sacred night, when, as you reminded us, we celebrate God's gift to us of His Divine Son
- Very God & Very Man in the flesh, I was trying to come up with something nice to send to
you.
This is a video of the boy choir of Gloucester Cathedral singing one of my favorite Carols,
In the Bleak Midwinter. I love the simplicity & stillness of it melody, and the
utter eloquence - readily comprehensible to all. It conveys......beauty & love for the Christ
Child.
I would often perform it for the Offertory or Communion in a Midnight Mass. Little old
ladies........Black, White, or Latino......would always smile warmly and make the effort to thank
me for performing this work.

Regarding your latest mailing: The (Electronic) Voice of God - How can you tell? (1) - This device has the hoof-print of satan all over it - both in its various actual and potential uses, as well as in its origin.
A quick Google searches confirmed my intuition that this was likely based on the technologies of Nicola Tesla - who had very distinct occult connections, in addition to his links with Thomas Edison (who was himself an occultist).
There is much information out there about this device in conjunction with Tesla related harmonic resonance/brainwave theory and experimentation. Thus its use as a crowd control/torture device has already been shown in use by "authorities" in the US and in Iraq. Presumably, it has been tested on live human subjects in lab trials - for all of its horrid applications.
For your information: "The device was also used by police in New York City during protests of the 2004 Republican National Convention." (2)

Quote from News
While U.S. efforts to deploy it's microwave Active Denial System continue to be delayed,
another non-lethal system, LRAD (Long Range Acoustic Device) has been quietly deployed to Iraq.
And there the story gets a little strange.
LRAD is basically a focused beam of sound. Originally, it was designed to emit a very loud sound. Anyone whose head was touched by this beam, heard a painfully loud sound. Anyone standing next to them heard nothing.
.... LRAD works. It was recently used off Somalia, by a cruise ship, to repel pirates. Some U.S. Navy ships also carry it, but not just to repel attacking suicide bombers, or whatever.
....the system was sold to the navy for a much gentler application. LRAD can also broadcast speech for up to 300 meters. The navy planned to use LRAD to warn ships to get out of the way. This was needed in places like the crowded coastal waters of the northern Persian Gulf, where the navy patrols.
With LRAD, you just aim it at a member of the crew, and have an interpreter "speak" to the sailor. It was noted that the guy on the receiving end was sometimes terrified, even after he realized it was that large American destroyer that was talking to him.
This apparently gave the army guys some ideas, for there are now rumors in Iraq of a devilish American weapon that makes people believe they are hearing voices in their heads.
It appears that some of the troops in Iraq are using "spoken" LRAD to mess with enemy fighters. Islamic terrorists tend to be superstitious and, of course, very religious. LRAD can put the "word of God" into their heads. If God, in the form of a voice that only you can hear, tells you to surrender, or run away, what are you gonna do?

What can we say? This is how far - into hell - technology is taking mankind. Do you realize
the evil that can be worked by this technique? It is hard to think about it and its capabilities
without having an upset stomach.
The concept and "devilish" application is so evil that we chose to confirm the news report - maybe, just maybe, we prayed and hoped, it was a hoax.
Unfortunately - it is not - as you may see for yourself as you visit the Home Page of the inventors/manufacturer American Technology Corporation at http://www.atcsd.com/site/content/view/37/47/
Oh, yes.... the answer to the "Subject" question: The (Electronic) Voice of God - How can you tell? : Unless the Holy Spirit of God is in one's soul, thus, one's Faith is "of the heart" and not "intellectual faith" - as it is usually the case - the individual will be irremediably deceived.

Dear Miguel,
From your last mailing (1) - I am glad to see that you have not lost your sense of humor.
All is well and you are doing a great job!
Those who are destined to see the light will see it, and those who have forsaken God and His Messengers will pay the price.
As you have pointed out, God's plan is perfect and those who must be brought "on board" will be there, either by walking on with a glass of iced tea or being carried on after being beaten to a pulp.
While it is not God's will that any be lost, God's justice demands that many will lose Eternal Life.
As they say in court, "Next case!"
Peace and Best Wishes for the Season of Advent!

The game of cat and mouse will never seem the same again. Scientists have created a mutant mouse which has lost its instinctive fear of felines.
A genetic change to the mouse's sense of smell has caused it to lose the ability to associate the
smell of a cat with an innate fear of a potential predator.

Dear Miguel,
As Prime Minister Olmert carrys out the division of the Holy City and ushers in Armageddon.... we will have entered the time foretold in Zechariah 12!
Their leaders have them on the same path to national suicide that ours do, the suicide of nation states and the creation of World Government. (1)
[Zechariah 12:3]
And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden
themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together
against it.
The only thing left is the abomination of desolation (2) mentioned in Daniel 12:11 And from the time [that] the daily [sacrifice] shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, [there shall be] a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
[Matthew 24:22]
And except those days should be shortened (3), there should no
flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

From IW @ USA - Published on December 10th, 2007 [Feast of Our Lady of Loretto (1)]
In my career, over the last 30+ years (since high school) I have had professional contact with scores of priests in several US states/dioceses. More then I can possibly count. One thing which I noted long ago, which struck me as being peculiar, was that some of them wore a ring, even though they were not a prelate (i.e. bishop). I found that to be odd. It would be hard for me to estimate percentages now, but let's say it was a "sizable minority". Every now and then I would see this on one or two of them, and remember the ring worn. Most were pastors and/or chancery officials.
As best as I can remember, most wore it on the traditional "ring finger" - where a husband/bride would wear a wedding band, or a bishop would wear a ring of his office. In some of these cases, where there was enough circumstantial evidence, I shrugged off these rings as being "commitment rings" of a homosexual nature; and it is likely that in certain cases I may have been correct about that. Yet, the rings I observed were not of a religious nature ( i.e. with a cross on them).
I have also observed this ring design on the hands of certain lay people - and a few church musicians (organists) in particular. It's use seems to be that of a "code" so that those who are like minded will be able to recognize each other without words.
I have seen those rings and jewelry symbols for some years now. The design stuck in my head, but I had no clue as to their cryptic meaning until now.
I pray that you share this information with as many of the Faithful as you are able to.

(1) About Our Lady of Loreto
The title Our Lady of Loreto refers to the Holy House of Loreto, the house in which Mary
was born, and where the Annunciation occurred, and to an ancient statue of Our Lady which is found
there. Tradition says that a band of angels scooped up the little house from the Holy Land, and
transported it first to Tersato, Dalmatia in 1291, Reananti in 1294, and finally to Loreto, Italy
where it has been for centuries. It was this flight that led to her patronage of people involved
in aviation, and the long life of the house that has led to the patronage of builders,
construction workers, etc. It is the first shrine of international renown dedicated to the Blessed
Virgin, and has been known as a Marian center for centuries. Popes have always held the Shrine of
Loreto in special esteem, and it is under their direct authority and protection. [Source:

Today's homily was an attempt to convince us that things are getting better in the world.
The reason being that we have had Jesus with us for 2,000 years and so they must be getting better.
As you have pointed out the Roman Catholic Church HAS to say this to justify their failed evangelization effort. (1)
Logical people do what forensic accountants do: COUNT. Yes, count all the good things (2) and the bad things (3) and see the bottom line.
Objectivity and reality are always necessary in a crisis - yet it is seldom applied. (4)
As Jesus has stated, it is serpent 2: humanity 0 (Divine Instructions and Encouragement). (5)
Nothing has changed in millennia. We still make the same mistakes, but for the Grace of God.
Peace and Best Wishes for the Season of Anticipating Christ!

My brethren, Thank you for answering my query in the Private Forum dated November 25th (1).
Obviously you had been urged by God to do so. I say obviously because you had addressed this question over a year ago in the Public Forum dated September 4th (2).
I consider this a happy circumstance as "the hour is late" (3) and God sees fit to remind us once again about the dangers of idolatry, dangers that you all pointed out are too easy to fall prey to.
Also, it highlights something which Miguel and you all frequently refer to: coherence. God (and by extension those who do His will) never contradicts Himself. (4)
If there are those of us who regularly visit the site need proof, I would consider this one. Also, if God allows, I would still love to hear about Miguel's examples someday.
You all remain in my prayers. May our Lord continue to bless and guide you all. Yours in Christ.
