Statement of Purpose

Christ came not to send peace, but the sword. This blog - Gladius Veritatis, or Sword of Truth - exists in order to remind us all of our raison d'etre (reason for being, final end) and to comment upon the present ecclesiastical and societal situations, exposing the forces behind the insanity we see (and which grows) every day. We are, especially in the formerly-Christian West, in serious trouble. The hour is late indeed, as the enemies of God, His Holy Church, and even all merely natural decency are pushing hard to complete the long-dreamed of New World Order, complete with its own one-world, visible, dogma-less, humanitarian religion.

The sins of men have reached such a point that it seems clear that God will allow (or very nearly allow) this insane project of deluded men come to pass. Many who say they are against this diabolical project are, in fact, aiding the enemy. May they see the truth before it is too late, and may the Almighty God bring us all to true repentance of our sins. The Ninivites of old won favor in the sight of God, even though He was angry enough to destroy them. Mercifully, He sent His messenger Jonas, and the Ninivites heard him, immediately doing fitting penance for their numerous offenses against His Supreme Majesty. May He move us to do likewise now, as we have offended Him for too long, as Our Lady of Fatima said to three little children 89 years ago in Portugal.

There are myriad matters which could be discussed on several topics, as the situation in the modern world (and in Catholic circles) is dire in the extreme. I have neither the time nor the wisdom to comment upon them all, especially if the comments are to be truly helpful to anyone. I do hope, however, to help at least one individual, in however small a manner. If this comes to pass, I shall consider my time well spent. Whenever possible, I shall simply provide the time-tested words of men far wiser and holier than I. God speed to all who read this blog. Please pray for me. Vincit veritas.
