The birthpangs of peace

Here's what Bishop Schneider said about the main errors of Russia. I think I got it all. I put a question mark beside any words I was unsure of:


The main errors:
Communist Marxism
Materialistic style of life
Atheistic society - society without God. This is a grave error.
Then to build the entire social public and private life only on material values


A complete atheistic style of life as if God did not exist - to banish God from society - and complete materialism are the main errors and which are spread into our Western society now since decades. The Western society in the public life, in the schools, the universities, the parliaments of almost all the Western countries. They banished God completely from schools, from parliaments and promote a complete materialistic lifestyle. So we are really overwhelmed with all this materialism in the mainstream, in the culture.

Now we in the West, and of course Russia also - the current Russia, are living atheist materialism. I think it is even worse in the West, this kind of atheism. I think, for example, that the spreading of the gender ideology against family, against marriage, it is also a part of Marxism because Marx and Engels they wrote that the final goal of Marxist Communism will be to destroy the family. This already was stated by the Communists in the 19th century, and now we are facing the Western societies are destroying full programme(?) marriage and family. This is another grave error and therefore I think that the consecration of Russia is very timely also to ask God that these big errors would be diminished in our societies. And also the conversion of Russia which I consider should consist that the Russian Orthodox Church will reconcile, unite with the Holy See to be in full Catholic communion. This will be a true and a full conversion(?).

Asked by Timothy Gordon whether feminism is a first iteration of transgenderism where there's a kind of juxtaposition of roles in marriage (that's my take on what Timothy Gordon said), the Bishop replied as follows:

Feminism was partly introduced by the Communists but not in that way which we are in the Western world. They, of course, in the Communist time took the women from family(?) and obliged the women to work all the day and so the children were forcibly(?) educated by the Communist State. And sometimes the Communists gave women work not appropriate for a woman but more for a man - very hard work. But I lived in the Communist time, a proper(?) feminism in this way was not present there. Bit in the Western world(?) the next word is unclear. Of course, feminism is another expression of destroying marriage - an attack against marriage and family. As I mentioned already, Marks and Engels, they already know(?) that the family is the last episode of the Communists to destroy this bourgeois institution as they called the family, and now in the Western world this feminism is more spread than in the Eastern ex-Communist countries.

 

Well said. The destruction of the family gives government the power of control. By the way, the longer this war continues the more dangerous Putin will get. Let’s end this nonsense Biden before a country gets annihilated.

 

Thank you, Josephite; the above provides clarity.

 

Thank you Maria for going to such trouble and transcribing Bishop Schneider words.
He makes perfect sense.

 

‘Not engaged in charity’: Russia won’t supply gas to Europe for free, cautions Kremlin
Russian Politics & DiplomacyMarch 28, 13:27
However, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov refrained from providing details on what measures Russia might take if Europe refuses to pay for gas in rubles

MOSCOW, March 28. /TASS/. Moscow is handling the details of its gas delivery plans to unfriendly countries for payment in rubles, but it won’t engage in charity if Europe refuses to pay in the Russian currency, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Monday.

Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin requested reporting on measures on the issue before March 31. "The supply process is very complicated," Peskov said, adding that it includes "both the supplies, the payment, as well as adjustment of balances." "Currently all modalities are being developed by the departments, with Gazprom, after which a clear timeframe will be defined," he said when asked what particularly should be implemented during this period.

The Kremlin spokesman remained tight-lipped on what measures Russia might take if Europe refused to pay for gas in rubles, noting that these "issues should be sorted out as they develop." "But we will definitely not supply gas for free, that’s for sure. It is hardly possible and reasonable to engage in charity in our situation," he emphasized.

Earlier, Putin requested moving payments for gas supplies to unfriendly countries to rubles, saying that Moscow would refuse accepting payments on such contracts in discredited currencies, including dollars and euros.

Bishop Scheneider's words reflect very well what is happening today. The origin of all evils is the forgetfulness of God. It is very sad, but most people live as if God does not exist. God is of no importance to them. They think that they can be very happy without God with their material things, with their jobs, etc.
In fact, this a lack of the first commandment. Love God above all things. The first commandment is the most important. If one lives without God, how can one love Him?
From this, come all the other evils. Because whe the door is closed to God, the one who enters is the Devil. The evils against the family, life and all the others.
I hope the warning will show the atheist that God exists. Because most people are atheist, or live as if they are.
I look my neighbours, my co-workers, my friends, my relatives...almost all live atheistically. This is the great evil of the world. We need the warning soon...

 

Excellent post.

 

Amen!

 

Yes, garabandal, a great analogy. It's like the emergence of spring in Upstate New York. The calendar tells us the equinox which initiates spring occurred on March 20th. This coming Thursday, the temperature will aim for 60F, but today it is windy, the temperature is 18F and snow is lightly falling. I was up at the Salmon River aquifer filling jugs for our drinking water; It was downright nippy!

Labor pains, indeed!

 

Same here. Very cold albeit sunny. Snow is mostly gone. Hoping for no more snow storms. ( never safe til you pass April 15 if the past serves as any guideline)
