Lighter fare for this Friday.
This appeals to my reptilian brain stem!

“He [Satan] will set up a counter-Church which will be the ape of the Church because, he the devil, is the ape of God. It will have all the notes and characteristics of the Church, but in reverse and emptied of its divine content. It will be a mystical body of the anti-Christ that will in all externals resemble the mystical body of Christ. In desperate need for God, whom he nevertheless refuses to adore, modern man in his loneliness and frustration will hunger more and more for membership in a community that will give him enlargement of purpose, but at the cost of losing himself in some vague collectivity.”
“Who is going to save our Church? Not our bishops, not our priests and religious. It is up to you, the people. You have the minds, the eyes, and the ears to save the Church. Your mission is to see that your priests act like priests, your bishops act like bishops.”
- Fulton Sheen
Therefore, ACTIVATE YOUR CONFIRMATION and get to work!

A monthly subscription donation means I have steady income I can plan on. I put you my list of benefactors for whom I pray and for whom I often say Holy Mass.
In view of the rapidly changing challenges I now face, I would like to add more $10/month subscribers. Will you please help?

"But if, in any layman who is indeed imbued with literature, ignorance of the Latin language, which we can truly call the 'catholic' language, indicates a certain sluggishness in his love toward the Church, how much more fitting it is that each and every cleric should be adequately practiced and skilled in that language!" - Pius XI
"Let us realize that this remark of Cicero (Brutus 37, 140) can be in a certain way referred to [young lay people]: 'It is not so much a matter of distinction to know Latin as it is disgraceful not to know it.'" - St. John Paul II
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

Very cute :)
But… as a PhD Organic/Biochemist, I kinda find it hard to imagine they did not see the DNA as non-human, but hey, maybe the code reader was a trainee. :)
Garbage in, garbage out…all for $49.95!
Just goes to show you what a scam these DNA testing websites are. If you think this is simply about researching your ancestry, you would be sadly mistaken. The woman who founded 23 and Me is Anne Wojcicki, who is married to Sergi Brin (Google founder) and the sister of Susan Wojcicki (YouTube CEO). They all have something in common, and it’s not just their business skills. Don’t take these tests! It’s all about collecting personal info on you, and this at its most essential level.
You actually have to, ahem, get quite a sample in that test tube to send off. I doubt a lizard has that much in them. What did they do, wring him out?
I believe that this is a spoof video and not an actual result from 23andme.
“My lizard was 51% Ashkenazi Jewish.”
Mazel tov!
Proverbs 30:24 Four things on earth are small,
but they are exceedingly wise:
25 the ants are a people not strong,
yet they provide their food in the summer;
26 the badgers are a people not mighty,
yet they make their homes in the rocks;
27 the locusts have no king,
yet all of them march in rank;
28 the lizard you can take in your hands,
yet it is in kings’ palaces.
Some, like Fr. Neuhaus of happy memory, would argue that New York City is the only palace for kings:
