"During the covid tyranny, pastors and priests (from all denominations) refused to countenance the evidence. Instead, like dead fish, they went belly-up, with the stream of tyranny. When the evidence showed very clearly and very early that what was actually happening (with morbidity, mortality, lockdowns, masks and vaccines) was the very opposite of the propaganda of fear unleashed upon the people by government authorities and state media, they meekly went along with the latter. When the government asked them to jump, these feckless shepherds almost all asked, “how high?”
"As shepherds of the flocks of their congregations, pastors and priests had an obligation and duty to always examine the evidence and to safeguard the ability of their flocks to feed upon the Word of God, to participate in Holy Communion, to visit the sick, to feed the poor. Instead, these hireling shepherds closed Churches, enforced mask mandates even for children, demanded vaccine passports as a condition of entering the House of God, ignored the sick and the poor and even claimed whilst doing all this, that they were being good Christians and following the Bible!"

Rod Dreher asks, "I don’t understand why the government doesn’t deploy the army and shoot rioters until they stop. Philippe Lemoine, a Frenchman, says it’s not that simple."
Excerpt:
"We have let things rot for so long that, at this point, relying primarily on force to restore order would require a degree of violence far greater than what people realize and what is politically feasible.
It's possible to contain a riot using only moderate force when the number of police officers is high relative to the number of rioters, but when riots are so widespread and involve so many people because you have allowed this kind of things to happen for so long, that's just not possible and you have to use extreme violence to make up for the lack of manpower.
I know people on the Internet will say that it doesn't matter and that we should just do it, but the reality is that most of the people in charge are not prepared to use that kind of force and neither would most ordinary people if they saw ...
Even Marine Le Pen’s recent statements track this line: personal Islamic practice is compatible with the Republic; replacing French law with Sharia is not. French Muslims who are simply citizens practicing their "religious faith" “have no reason to worry” about a Le Pen election victory.
But can one be a practicing Muslim without demanding and practicing Sharia?
