Transcript

00:00:00.040 Hello and welcome to this special episode of the John Henry Weston Show, where I'm very pleased to have for you a guest who's well known to some of you.
00:00:07.820 He is a Catholic speaker and activist. He is a book author. He's also a professional magician, which most of you don't know.
00:00:15.260 His name is Patrick Coffin. Many of you will know him from his eight years as the host of the Catholic Answers Live radio show.
00:00:23.360 He also runs his own show called The Patrick Coffin Show. You're going to want to stay tuned for this one.
00:00:30.000 Let's begin, as we always do, with the sign of the cross.
00:00:50.580 In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
00:00:56.560 Patrick Coffin, welcome to the program.
00:00:58.480 John Henry, thanks for having me, sir.
00:01:00.000 Good to be with you.
00:01:01.200 Great to be with you.
00:01:02.140 Now, some very controversial news to start with.
00:01:05.060 First of all, I want to let you tell our listeners a little bit about yourself, for those who don't know, but also tell them the big news.
00:01:12.100 You've been banned by YouTube, and horrifically so. Tell us what's happened.
00:01:16.980 Well, in order of your questions, I was born and raised in Halifax and kept trekking west.
00:01:21.680 I went to McGill in Montreal, studied drama as a teacher at the University of Toronto in Stratford Theatre, ended up doing a year with the Companions of the Cross in Ottawa, kept going west to a little place called Franciscan University of Steubenville, where I got a master's degree.
00:01:36.020 Then was recruited to a film and TV company called Paul's Productions that made the film Romero.
00:01:41.160 Then I heard this open call for auditions for a Catholic radio show that I'd never heard but I knew existed called Catholic Answers Live.
00:01:49.580 And by God's grace and maybe some dumb luck, I was the last man standing and moved to San Diego in 2009.
00:01:56.640 Learned more in my first week than I probably would have learned in four years of radio school.
00:02:00.420 Trial and error and so on.
00:02:03.280 Spent just about eight happy years there.
00:02:05.940 And then in 2016, I felt like I wanted to pick my own guests and talk about things that are trending and kind of connect with people who are either sages or survivors of the culture war.
00:02:16.000 So I started PCM, Patrick Coffin Media, a weekly podcast now hitting close to 230 episodes.
00:02:22.520 And my wife and I run summits called RestoreTheCulture.com.
00:02:26.360 And the first one was in October.
00:02:29.780 The second one is coming up at the end of April, April 30th and May 1st.
00:02:33.780 And that's on the vaccine, the Great Reset with respect to COVID-19.
00:02:37.080 That led to my permanent strike by our good friends at YouTube.
00:02:42.000 Now, they violated their own terms of service by doing this.
00:02:44.720 The rule is if you get three strikes or warnings within 90 days, then you're out.
00:02:51.500 But we deliberately stayed away from YouTube for at least a month.
00:02:54.280 And they actually had to look back through my archive to find something that was offensive.
00:03:00.080 And so that delivered the permanent strike.
00:03:03.540 And the triggering incident that gave me the Golden Boot Award was simply launching RestoreTheCulture.com.
00:03:09.620 Just the existence of that on the Internet was a bridge too far for YouTube.
00:03:14.780 So we're looking at various legal options.
00:03:18.700 It's our intellectual property.
00:03:20.240 And they took it from us unjustly.
00:03:22.420 So that's kind of a story in process.
00:03:25.300 But I really don't mind John Henry.
00:03:28.520 Logos Incarnate doesn't need YouTube or any particular software or social media platform to get the word out.
00:03:35.820 It makes it easier, I suppose.
00:03:37.680 But as you know, because you got the similar Golden Boot Award with LifeSite News for absurd reasons, it backfires.
00:03:43.420 It backfires.
00:03:44.140 The devil always overplays his card.
00:03:46.220 And this is the kind of thing that if you're on the fence and you're observing someone getting silenced or banned or deplatformed, it makes you curious.
00:03:53.900 Well, what's the voice I'm not supposed to be listening to?
00:03:56.280 Aren't I an adult?
00:03:57.140 Can't I weigh evidence and agree or disagree?
00:03:59.880 But we're fighting an asymmetrical warfare scenario here.
00:04:05.180 You and I would debate pretty much anybody.
00:04:08.300 Let's find where the common ground is.
00:04:10.160 Let's find out what the differences and similarities are and come to agree or disagree.
00:04:14.820 But the other side wants to delete us.
00:04:17.180 They don't want debate.
00:04:18.280 They want us cancelled.
00:04:19.680 And that's not what we ordinarily call adult behavior.
00:04:24.160 So I consider it kind of a feather in my cap to be banned.
00:04:28.180 But we're going to fight it and we'll see how it shakes out.
00:04:30.640 One of the things that I really love about you, Patrick, is that you're willing to take on things that are very challenging.
00:04:37.060 You want to address them openly.
00:04:38.900 You want to do so with intellectual rigor, but also with great faith.
00:04:43.320 You're a man of great faith.
00:04:44.280 You wrote books specifically on the hard issues of the faith.
00:04:49.860 I remember one of your books particularly about contraception, one of the hardest topics in the faith.
00:04:55.500 But you take them on from not only an intellectual basis in the faith, but also from a deeply held belief and practice of the faith.
00:05:03.340 And yet you've been willing to go to a place where I think many, many Catholics would be totally offended and shocked.
00:05:10.820 At least they would have been four or five years ago.
00:05:14.520 Maybe today, not so much.
00:05:18.060 And what I'm referring to, of course, is your willingness to address the scandals of Pope Francis.
00:05:24.720 It's been quite something.
00:05:28.800 Tell us a little bit about that, your willingness to go there when most are not.
00:05:34.180 Like many people who were raised in the John Paul II generation, who did the Snoopy dance when Joseph Ransering was named as Pope Benedict XVI,
00:05:45.220 what has happened to the Catholic Church since March 13, 2013, has been a very bitter pill, red in color, to swallow.
00:05:53.480 And I was willing to go into the zone of benefit of the doubt and try to domesticate something that Pope Francis would say or do.
00:06:03.820 And I think, well, look, the press is probably misunderstanding him.
00:06:06.820 He's a practicing Catholic.
00:06:07.920 He's the pope after all.
00:06:09.420 And so the New York Times are supposed to criticize the pope.
00:06:12.340 But then over time, there was one incident after another after another.
00:06:15.400 And I began to realize that I'm not responsible for the things that he says.
00:06:21.420 I'm a journalist.
00:06:22.400 My job is to talk about it and comment on it and bring in various voices, pro and con, and shake out what is true from what is false.
00:06:31.340 And it's been a—I won't lie.
00:06:34.780 It's been hard.
00:06:37.440 The first couple years, the idea of floating around conservative Catholic circles was,
00:06:43.280 Well, look, okay, he's not perfect, but we want to imitate the sons of Noah, who covered the nakedness of their father who was drunk.
00:06:50.680 And, okay, that's noble.
00:06:52.860 Then after a while, I began to realize that we're dealing with an alcoholic streaker.
00:06:57.320 So then what do you do?
00:06:59.340 Where it just feels like the whole papal office is in free fall,
00:07:03.000 from Amoris Laetitia No. 8 with all those footnotes that are clearly contrary to the teaching of the faith
00:07:09.120 with respect to divorced and remarried Catholics receiving Holy Communion,
00:07:12.860 the letter from the Argentine bishops that was elevated into the official vault, the AAS of Catholic doctrine.
00:07:19.440 Now him wanting to change the catechism of the Catholic Church,
00:07:23.320 which, remember, was called by St. John Paul II a sure norm for the faith.
00:07:27.980 Well, it's not the case anymore with Francis' kind of re-evaluating and changing slash contradicting the teaching on the death penalty,
00:07:39.960 which has enjoyed 2,000 years of papal and scriptural and magisterial support.
00:07:45.580 So this is the kind of test where we have to learn the deposit of faith.
00:07:52.180 The Catholic faith transcends any particular papacy.
00:07:56.040 We've had bad popes in the past,
00:07:57.520 and now we're dealing with left-leaning, South American Jesuit-trained,
00:08:03.680 really the first post-Second Vatican Council as far as formation goes.
00:08:10.800 Pope Francis does not have the Thomistic training that his predecessors have.
00:08:14.220 He doesn't seem to have much interest in philosophy,
00:08:16.420 has confessed that he doesn't really know much about economics,
00:08:18.540 but continually weighs in on these things.
00:08:20.540 So there are many different ways to describe it.
00:08:25.660 One way would be to say that we finally get a pope we deserve.
00:08:28.900 We've had generations of papal clarity.
00:08:31.100 I was privileged to meet both Benedict XVI and John Paul II,
00:08:34.420 who blessed our wedding back in 2012.
00:08:38.820 Boy, get the year of your marriage right, Patrick.
00:08:42.660 2001.
00:08:43.180 And if you compare the crowds that were gathered
00:08:50.360 when John Paul II showed up at an event, or Benedict XVI,
00:08:54.320 St. Peter's was always packed.
00:08:56.240 Wherever John Paul II went, throngs, just a sea of humanity,
00:08:59.920 estimated almost one-third of all Ireland showed up in 1979
00:09:02.820 when he visited Dublin.
00:09:04.820 And yet the press hated them.
00:09:06.600 John Paul II was public enemy number one for his entire pontificate.
00:09:12.920 He was the angry, white, reactionary, anti-woman, medieval,
00:09:17.820 ultra-traditionalist, perhaps Cardinal Ratzinger worse,
00:09:21.340 God's Rottweiler.
00:09:22.580 And yet the average person saw in them a light,
00:09:26.000 a beacon of clarity and of strength and of moral commitment
00:09:29.740 against the spirit of the world.
00:09:31.900 With Francis, this is all reversed.
00:09:34.500 He's lauded.
00:09:36.300 They have sycophantic documentaries made about him.
00:09:39.620 He's praised by all the Alphabet Soup TV channels.
00:09:42.920 And yet the crowds are paltry.
00:09:45.020 I've been to Rome twice when he was there,
00:09:47.540 and it's just one of those things that if you have eyes to see,
00:09:51.840 you notice where the powers of the world and the influencers of secular media
00:09:55.880 see him as a kind of mascot,
00:09:58.760 whereas the average Catholic is scratching his or her head daily
00:10:02.060 over what next thing are we going to have to explain to people
00:10:05.820 who aren't Catholic about why they should become Catholics.
00:10:09.300 But you know, John Henry, the Holy Spirit is always on the air,
00:10:12.620 and many, many people are tuning in.
00:10:14.500 I was just at a parish here in Southern California,
00:10:17.020 and they had 20 converts who were interested in the faith
00:10:20.400 during, obviously, the pontificate of Pope Francis.
00:10:24.360 So there's a way that the Lord has of reaching people,
00:10:28.080 independent of this or that leader in the Church,
00:10:30.340 even if the leader happens to live in Rome and wear a white succhetto.
00:10:33.060 No, it's very true, though.
00:10:35.560 I know a good friend who's come into the Church in this time
00:10:40.540 and knowing full well, you know, the hell, really, that's going on in Rome.
00:10:46.940 And in a way, perhaps because he saw his own part in fighting what's going on,
00:10:53.060 fighting for the truth of the Church.
00:10:54.360 It's, anyway, truly amazing times.
00:10:57.140 One of the guests that I had on is very well known to most people.
00:11:03.600 His name is Taylor Marshall.
00:11:04.980 He wrote a book called Infiltration,
00:11:07.020 about the infiltration, basically, of modernism into the Church.
00:11:11.980 And I'd really like to hear your take on that
00:11:15.160 with regard to what's going on in Rome today.
00:11:18.080 I had the chance to interview, many times,
00:11:21.480 a convert, historian, and professor at Grove City College.
00:11:24.640 His name is Paul Kengor.
00:11:25.800 Paul's latest book is called The Devil and Karl Marx.
00:11:29.380 And in that book, he mentions something that I've heard for several years
00:11:32.740 through people like Dr. Alice von Hildebrand,
00:11:35.260 that there was this woman named Bella Dodd
00:11:37.760 and that she was a communist in New York in the 1920s and 30s
00:11:41.240 and that she deployed and trained over 1,000 seminarians
00:11:44.280 as communists to infiltrate the Catholic Church.
00:11:47.620 And I could never find what's the chapter and verse here.
00:11:51.240 Where exactly did she say this?
00:11:52.920 There's a few audio samples of her giving talks here and there,
00:11:56.360 but I couldn't locate the place that she said them.
00:11:59.820 What was the actual source?
00:12:01.380 And Paul alerted me to an unpublished manuscript
00:12:03.720 by a retired physician in Maine named Dr. Mary Nicholas.
00:12:07.640 And she has a book.
00:12:08.960 I don't know what the official title is,
00:12:11.100 but it's essentially Mary Dodd's biography.
00:12:14.220 And sure enough, in several places, public and among conversations,
00:12:20.780 Bella Dodd, who was born in Italy, came to New York in the teens and 20s,
00:12:24.760 went to Columbia University, joined the teacher union circles there,
00:12:27.640 was a card-carrying member of the American wing of the Communist Party.
00:12:31.600 And she confessed doing this.
00:12:33.960 We know this because her spiritual father and confessor
00:12:37.120 was then Monsignor Fulton Sheen.
00:12:40.140 They were lifelong friends after that.
00:12:42.420 And she said that there are cardinals in Rome
00:12:45.760 during the Second Vatican Council
00:12:47.140 that I know are fully communistic in their orientation
00:12:52.280 and their desire to infiltrate the Catholic Church at the highest levels.
00:12:56.180 And when you read the documents of the Second Vatican Council,
00:12:59.840 particularly Gaudium et Spes,
00:13:01.280 there's really no explicit mention of communism
00:13:04.260 in a time when the Soviet Empire and its satellite vassal states
00:13:09.620 were imprisoning Catholics, lay people, priests, religious, cardinals even.
00:13:14.780 So it's a curious silence from the documents.
00:13:17.900 But that makes a kind of sense if there were people there
00:13:21.100 who were influencing the editors of the schemas that were submitted.
00:13:25.520 This is the kind of thing that Christ predicted,
00:13:29.360 the wheat and the tares.
00:13:30.300 There's always going to be the presence of evil in the Church
00:13:32.400 and outside the Church.
00:13:33.880 And sometimes we just have to be patient
00:13:35.440 and let the Holy Spirit grind out the story.
00:13:39.200 And I'm very impatient by nature,
00:13:41.400 so I want the answer yesterday.
00:13:43.720 So I have to realize, as our great chaplain,
00:13:47.300 the Dominican Father Vincent Serpa always used to tell us,
00:13:50.680 God operates on two speeds, slow and stop.
00:13:54.100 One thing we want to clarify is that a lot of people perhaps don't know
00:13:58.620 that during the Second Vatican Council,
00:14:00.600 there were all sorts of documents that were made.
00:14:02.540 There were excellent documents, summaries on life, on faith, family,
00:14:06.580 that were put together.
00:14:07.620 They're called schemas.
00:14:08.740 Normally, when there's a council, the fathers come together.
00:14:11.880 They put together these documents with the best,
00:14:15.060 the richest of the teaching,
00:14:16.640 but done in a way that's summarized and easy to understand,
00:14:20.120 because its councils are for clarity, for the faithful.
00:14:23.380 There was a document on communism, and what happened to it?
00:14:27.300 Oh, nothing happened to it.
00:14:28.300 It was ignored.
00:14:28.980 It wasn't even edited and kind of chopped up.
00:14:31.340 It was set aside.
00:14:32.940 Another one in the Blessed Virgin Mary
00:14:34.400 ended up being heavily edited
00:14:36.380 and folded into Chapter 8 of Lumen Gentium,
00:14:39.500 but it started off as a standalone document.
00:14:44.120 And I don't know.
00:14:46.040 I haven't had access to them,
00:14:47.040 but I suspect that it included more traditional language
00:14:49.700 like Mary Co-Redemptrix, Mediatrix of All Graces,
00:14:52.740 which are longstanding, well-embedded,
00:14:56.100 established Catholic teachings about the Blessed Virgin Mary,
00:14:58.320 which are essentially Christocentric.
00:15:01.500 And so this is another tale
00:15:03.480 where Pope Francis goes out of his way
00:15:05.040 to attack those traditional titles of the Blessed Mother.
00:15:08.440 But that was originally given a separate treatment
00:15:11.160 in one of the early schemas.
00:15:12.940 Absolutely.
00:15:14.160 Now, going to another topic,
00:15:16.620 which is evidently controversial,
00:15:19.660 especially for YouTube,
00:15:21.580 the coronavirus and COVID
00:15:24.940 and the whole vaccine situation.
00:15:28.020 You've delved into that quite deeply.
00:15:31.080 You're running a conference on it
00:15:32.280 at the end of this month
00:15:33.060 and the first of the month of next.
00:15:37.540 What's your take,
00:15:38.700 just first of all,
00:15:39.520 as a general sweep of the whole COVID phenomenon?
00:15:43.080 And then we'll talk about the vaccines right after that.
00:15:46.080 SARS-CoV-2 is a single-strand RNA virus
00:15:48.560 that is largely treatable and preventable.
00:15:52.460 And mostly, unless you're over the age of 70
00:15:54.860 and are obese and have other comorbidities,
00:15:57.420 not lethal.
00:15:59.160 The number of deaths around the world,
00:16:01.660 country by country,
00:16:02.460 has not been a massive spike
00:16:04.320 compared to 2016 to 2021.
00:16:08.600 So from several different perspectives,
00:16:10.600 we have been lied to on a massive scale
00:16:12.960 with these lockdowns,
00:16:14.200 with this unscientific,
00:16:16.700 arbitrary six-foot social distancing.
00:16:19.680 Whole populace is forced into wearing masks
00:16:22.100 that we now know do not work.
00:16:24.580 Masks are not efficacious.
00:16:25.860 In fact, they have some
00:16:26.760 sometimes serious side effects
00:16:29.040 for wearing them.
00:16:29.800 We have a generation of young people
00:16:31.520 who this is all they know.
00:16:33.320 If you're under five years old,
00:16:34.400 you're living your first few years
00:16:36.300 surrounded by frightened adults with masks on.
00:16:39.240 Who wears masks?
00:16:40.760 Bandits wear masks.
00:16:42.060 Antifa wear masks.
00:16:43.600 Terrorists wear masks.
00:16:44.780 And now we've all been put into that box
00:16:46.780 by the oligarchs who are running the show.
00:16:50.140 I'm not an anti-vax activist.
00:16:53.880 I've read a lot on both sides.
00:16:56.900 Our kids have had most of the general run,
00:16:59.840 not all, for various reasons.
00:17:01.920 But I'm pro-informed consent.
00:17:04.640 And they're not telling the truth
00:17:06.620 about how many people are being injured
00:17:07.900 by either the Pfizer or the Moderna,
00:17:11.600 the Novavax, or the Johnson & Johnson.
00:17:13.740 They're just not...
00:17:14.520 Not all the injuries and deaths get reported,
00:17:17.380 and the ones that do into the VAERS
00:17:18.680 or the Vaccine Adverse Event Reaction System,
00:17:22.380 which was put in place
00:17:23.900 after President Reagan signed
00:17:25.980 the Child Injury Act in 1986.
00:17:28.180 Remember, John Henry,
00:17:29.280 manufacturers of vaccines are indemnified.
00:17:31.640 They're immune from suing.
00:17:34.280 So if you're injured or killed by a vaccine,
00:17:37.520 good luck,
00:17:38.380 because all you can do is submit a claim
00:17:40.420 through the VAERS system.
00:17:41.620 The vaccines don't really qualify
00:17:43.180 according to the legal definition of a vaccine.
00:17:45.580 These are better understood
00:17:47.460 as experimental gene therapies.
00:17:49.980 It just reminds me of a meme.
00:17:53.240 It's two rats in a laboratory talking.
00:17:55.360 One rat says to the other,
00:17:56.560 you going to take the vaccine?
00:17:57.780 And the other rat says,
00:17:58.760 oh, no, no, no, they're not finished
00:17:59.680 the human tests yet.
00:18:02.320 So this is where we're at.
00:18:04.400 As for me and my house,
00:18:05.580 we're not taking them.
00:18:06.840 And I was happy to see
00:18:08.600 the Harris administration,
00:18:10.160 that's my nickname for the Biden administration,
00:18:12.520 backpedal on this idea of vaccine passports.
00:18:15.580 So you have to ask yourself why.
00:18:17.660 Why in every country
00:18:19.080 are these lockdowns happening?
00:18:21.600 And as we speak in Ontario and other places,
00:18:24.120 they're kind of doubling down
00:18:25.580 for a condition that is not Ebola.
00:18:28.520 It's not smallpox.
00:18:29.920 You can recover.
00:18:30.920 In fact, if you do,
00:18:31.640 you get substantial immunity
00:18:33.180 that's going to exceed the immunity
00:18:34.640 that you get through the vaccine.
00:18:36.600 And why is Pope Francis cheerleading for this?
00:18:39.680 Why the hard sell?
00:18:40.760 Why photos of bishops
00:18:42.080 getting their jab in the arm?
00:18:44.220 Yeah.
00:18:44.540 This is the kind of thing
00:18:45.420 that gets normal people curious.
00:18:48.700 Why the hard sell?
00:18:49.820 Why?
00:18:50.060 This is the first vaccine,
00:18:51.200 the first condition really,
00:18:52.360 that has needed 24-7 propagandizing.
00:18:55.300 Yeah.
00:18:55.780 And a lot of people smell a rat.
00:18:57.780 So this is why we launched
00:18:58.820 RestoreTheCulture.com.
00:19:00.940 We've got people from all across
00:19:03.080 the religious and political spectrum,
00:19:04.660 from Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
00:19:06.840 to Archbishop Carla Maria Vigano,
00:19:09.260 the former papal nuncio,
00:19:10.380 well-known to your audience.
00:19:11.980 Bishop Athanasius Snyder
00:19:13.280 is going to talk about
00:19:13.980 the moral principles involved
00:19:15.200 in using a vaccine
00:19:17.500 that incorporates dead baby body parts.
00:19:22.360 Rose Acquire,
00:19:23.400 her website is
00:19:25.480 Democrats Against UN Agenda 21.
00:19:28.780 Dr. Leland Stillman
00:19:29.860 is an incredible young doctor
00:19:31.880 in Virginia,
00:19:33.280 has a new book coming out
00:19:34.740 on the medical effects of light
00:19:36.180 and how the lockdown
00:19:37.380 has certainly harmed
00:19:39.280 our ability to maintain
00:19:41.780 a robust immune system.
00:19:43.580 I won't go through the whole list,
00:19:44.840 but it's pretty impressive.
00:19:46.600 We got the best of the best,
00:19:49.200 including Pastor James Coates,
00:19:51.100 attorney John Carpe
00:19:51.960 from the Center for Justice
00:19:53.520 out in Alberta,
00:19:55.740 fighting the good fight
00:19:56.600 for a jailed Christian minister,
00:19:59.180 father, dad,
00:20:00.740 for not going along
00:20:02.320 with the provincial protocol.
00:20:04.740 This is police state tactics
00:20:06.480 that we're facing now,
00:20:07.900 and it's real.
00:20:09.680 It's not conspiracy theory.
00:20:10.820 You don't need to have
00:20:11.560 a tinfoil hat.
00:20:12.880 It's all hiding in plain sight,
00:20:14.080 and it's happening on our watch.
00:20:15.620 So that's why we decided
00:20:16.600 to launch this series.
00:20:18.580 It looks like we're going
00:20:19.420 to do it twice a year.
00:20:20.840 And to find out more
00:20:21.880 of who the speakers are
00:20:22.900 and what it's about,
00:20:23.600 it's all free, by the way,
00:20:24.940 go to restoretheculture.com.
00:20:26.720 It's an amazing thing,
00:20:28.480 the comparison between Canada
00:20:29.820 and the United States.
00:20:30.620 I know you as a former Canadian
00:20:32.800 are into that,
00:20:35.020 but it's an incredible thing
00:20:36.160 to see even Biden
00:20:38.580 or the Harris administration,
00:20:40.160 as you say,
00:20:41.040 backpedaling from the idea
00:20:42.520 of COVID passports
00:20:43.400 when Prime Minister Trudeau
00:20:45.140 is pushing for them
00:20:46.440 and pushing the Biden administration
00:20:48.160 to do just that.
00:20:50.100 Not only that,
00:20:51.500 it's our conservative,
00:20:53.140 so-called conservative,
00:20:54.660 Premier in Ontario,
00:20:56.300 Doug Ford,
00:20:56.680 who has just done
00:20:57.940 the lockdown again.
00:20:59.320 It's a stay-at-home order now
00:21:01.020 as of yesterday.
00:21:02.120 And not only that,
00:21:03.220 it is probably
00:21:04.400 the most conservative Premier
00:21:06.620 in all of Canada,
00:21:08.060 Jason Kenney,
00:21:09.060 who is the one
00:21:10.540 that's in Alberta
00:21:12.420 as Pastor Coates arrested.
00:21:15.080 These are unbelievable times,
00:21:17.520 in a way,
00:21:18.360 reflects the difference
00:21:19.100 between Canada
00:21:19.680 and the United States.
00:21:20.660 If anybody thought it's bad
00:21:21.780 in the United States
00:21:22.940 under Biden,
00:21:23.940 just take a look
00:21:24.620 at your neighbours
00:21:25.180 to the north.
00:21:26.040 I agree, John Henry.
00:21:27.060 It's all counterintuitive.
00:21:28.040 It's exactly what
00:21:28.660 you wouldn't expect.
00:21:29.820 I mean,
00:21:30.080 we would expect someone
00:21:31.180 who has publicly praised
00:21:32.600 the CCP,
00:21:33.540 Justin Trudeau,
00:21:34.560 for wanting to replicate
00:21:35.680 what his puppet masters
00:21:37.840 in some ways
00:21:38.520 govern their country.
00:21:40.740 He's been very sympathetic
00:21:41.920 to communist regimes
00:21:42.840 around the world,
00:21:43.460 so that's not so surprising.
00:21:45.980 Mr. Ford,
00:21:47.560 Mr. Kenney,
00:21:48.480 these are not conservatives.
00:21:50.080 These are people
00:21:50.580 who seem just as willing
00:21:52.800 and eager
00:21:53.320 to control other people's lives
00:21:55.060 as anyone else.
00:21:57.040 And this is,
00:21:58.040 part of the red pill here
00:21:59.100 is realizing that the folks
00:22:00.240 that you used to think of
00:22:01.040 as good guys,
00:22:02.500 this has exposed them
00:22:03.460 as not so much.
00:22:04.920 I'm reminded of the maxim,
00:22:05.960 I'm not sure who said it,
00:22:07.080 but I think it's true,
00:22:08.280 that a crisis
00:22:08.820 does not build character,
00:22:10.260 it merely reveals it.
00:22:12.540 And where are the bishops
00:22:13.740 in all this?
00:22:14.740 Why aren't there more bishops
00:22:15.600 going to jail?
00:22:17.080 I mean,
00:22:17.520 Pastor Coates,
00:22:18.320 whom I admire
00:22:19.020 and pray for,
00:22:19.980 doesn't have sacraments
00:22:20.980 to defend.
00:22:21.820 He doesn't believe
00:22:22.300 in the real presence
00:22:22.880 of Christ.
00:22:24.060 When I watched,
00:22:25.000 in horror,
00:22:25.540 the South London,
00:22:26.280 England Good Friday liturgy
00:22:28.960 being interrupted
00:22:29.480 by police thugs
00:22:30.300 in London,
00:22:31.000 people just drifted away.
00:22:33.320 They didn't fight back,
00:22:34.720 they didn't have that
00:22:35.400 hell no thing.
00:22:37.500 This is the most solemn day
00:22:38.920 of the Christian year.
00:22:40.920 And the pastor there
00:22:41.660 says that,
00:22:42.220 there's a Polish parish
00:22:43.000 as it turns out,
00:22:44.040 said that they were
00:22:44.760 following the protocols.
00:22:45.800 Everyone had the diaper face on.
00:22:47.120 It still wasn't enough.
00:22:48.780 So contrast that
00:22:49.500 to the other Polish
00:22:50.840 Christian leader,
00:22:52.480 Pastor Art Pawlowski,
00:22:53.760 who verbally browbeat
00:22:55.260 a health inspector
00:22:56.300 in Calgary
00:22:56.840 and half a dozen
00:22:57.480 armed officers
00:22:58.320 and they actually,
00:22:59.740 they left
00:23:00.540 because he said
00:23:01.360 absolutely not.
00:23:02.560 He drew a line
00:23:03.060 in the sand.
00:23:04.060 And I think that
00:23:04.640 sand line drawing
00:23:05.720 impulse,
00:23:06.780 we need to pray
00:23:07.400 to get back
00:23:07.960 because that's the only way
00:23:08.940 we're going to stop
00:23:09.520 this John Henry.
00:23:10.160 They're going to keep
00:23:10.880 squeezing the lemon
00:23:11.660 until we say,
00:23:13.200 no,
00:23:13.680 not participating.
00:23:14.800 I'm opting out.
00:23:15.720 Thank you.
00:23:16.220 It's an incredible
00:23:16.840 allusion that you made there
00:23:18.160 to what the Protestant
00:23:19.980 pastors are doing
00:23:20.960 because they are bereft
00:23:22.220 of the sacraments.
00:23:22.980 That's very true.
00:23:24.380 My dad used to say,
00:23:25.780 God rest his soul,
00:23:26.840 that,
00:23:27.340 you know,
00:23:28.060 sometimes the Protestants
00:23:29.560 make more with their dime
00:23:31.040 than we do
00:23:32.000 with the full dollar.
00:23:33.500 And right now,
00:23:35.320 this lack of
00:23:36.680 courage among
00:23:37.660 most of the
00:23:38.540 Catholic leadership
00:23:39.340 on earth
00:23:40.640 is stunning
00:23:42.460 and it's shaming
00:23:44.500 the one true faith
00:23:46.260 with those
00:23:47.500 who are willing
00:23:48.520 to stand up
00:23:49.260 for the faith
00:23:49.720 and for the truth
00:23:50.340 and for the
00:23:51.640 for the veracity
00:23:54.020 of worship
00:23:54.640 on the holiest
00:23:56.260 day of the year.
00:23:57.220 It's mind-blowing
00:23:58.960 what's going on
00:23:59.600 right now.
00:24:00.060 Yeah,
00:24:00.240 I consider my
00:24:00.920 spiritual father
00:24:01.600 to be
00:24:02.240 Archbishop
00:24:03.000 Sheen,
00:24:03.960 venerable
00:24:04.900 and probably,
00:24:06.300 well,
00:24:06.580 he'll certainly
00:24:07.060 be named
00:24:07.540 Blessed.
00:24:09.960 I'm actually glad
00:24:11.060 that his case
00:24:12.020 is on ice
00:24:13.000 at this point.
00:24:14.220 That's another story
00:24:15.240 for another day.
00:24:16.260 But in the 60s
00:24:17.660 and 70s,
00:24:18.280 he was addressing
00:24:18.900 Catholic parents
00:24:19.640 saying that
00:24:20.920 if you want your
00:24:21.920 kid to stay Catholic,
00:24:23.580 send them to a
00:24:24.220 secular school
00:24:24.880 where they'll fight
00:24:25.440 for it.
00:24:26.100 If you send them
00:24:27.000 to a Catholic school,
00:24:27.740 they'll just lose it.
00:24:29.620 So this is all
00:24:30.220 he's already
00:24:30.680 sort of seeing ahead
00:24:31.640 and also very,
00:24:33.220 very focused
00:24:34.560 on the role
00:24:35.220 of lay people.
00:24:36.180 We can't wait
00:24:36.980 for Father So-and-So
00:24:38.360 or His Excellency
00:24:39.200 to save us.
00:24:40.260 We're baptized Catholics.
00:24:41.500 We have the dignity
00:24:42.140 of Christians.
00:24:43.080 We're in the public square.
00:24:44.500 So we have to go out
00:24:45.420 with the message
00:24:45.980 and we have to stop
00:24:46.940 looking over our shoulder
00:24:47.780 to see who in a Roman collar
00:24:49.400 is giving us thumbs-ups
00:24:51.360 or thumbs-down.
00:24:52.180 The need is too great
00:24:53.860 and what's at stake
00:24:54.980 is too grave
00:24:56.540 to start waiting around.
00:24:59.060 So it starts
00:25:00.160 with the person
00:25:00.640 in the mirror.
00:25:01.380 Tell us finally,
00:25:02.860 where do you think
00:25:03.860 we're at?
00:25:04.420 There's a lot
00:25:05.120 of eschatological
00:25:06.760 overtones
00:25:07.420 because this,
00:25:09.500 first of all,
00:25:10.080 has never happened
00:25:10.580 before.
00:25:11.180 We are in a,
00:25:12.500 the Great Reset
00:25:13.740 is being talked about
00:25:14.760 and it,
00:25:16.020 the whole world
00:25:17.080 is basically shut down
00:25:18.500 to a large extent.
00:25:19.400 We saw in,
00:25:20.520 in March last year,
00:25:21.780 the mass stopped
00:25:23.160 pretty well globally.
00:25:25.500 We're seeing still
00:25:26.960 in many places
00:25:27.700 in the world
00:25:28.100 haven't had mass
00:25:29.120 since then.
00:25:31.500 What do you,
00:25:33.380 what's your take
00:25:34.120 on this whole notion
00:25:35.160 of are we living
00:25:36.260 the end times right now?
00:25:37.460 Do you have nine hours?
00:25:38.480 How much time
00:25:39.160 do we have here?
00:25:40.260 Yes.
00:25:41.920 It's,
00:25:42.360 it's kind of
00:25:43.820 a cliche to say
00:25:45.520 that all time
00:25:46.360 after the incarnation
00:25:47.560 is the end times.
00:25:49.080 However,
00:25:49.560 I think there are
00:25:50.760 clear signs
00:25:51.960 that divine providence
00:25:53.580 is leading us
00:25:54.200 closer and closer
00:25:55.000 to a whole new
00:25:58.280 level of distortion,
00:26:00.980 dystopian default setting.
00:26:03.400 The one you mentioned now
00:26:04.660 is a really big one.
00:26:05.860 That is the,
00:26:06.400 the shutting down
00:26:07.260 of the holy sacrifice
00:26:08.340 of the mass.
00:26:09.120 The complicity
00:26:10.160 of so many Catholic leaders,
00:26:11.300 including the Pope
00:26:11.920 in Rome,
00:26:12.300 who's been a major
00:26:13.240 cheerleader for all of this.
00:26:15.340 And,
00:26:15.640 you know,
00:26:17.440 the Antichrist
00:26:18.560 is,
00:26:19.920 is a mysterious figure
00:26:21.220 in scripture
00:26:21.680 and tradition.
00:26:22.380 The saints
00:26:22.700 and the mystics,
00:26:23.780 the fathers,
00:26:24.300 all wrote about
00:26:24.980 the,
00:26:25.260 the role of the Antichrist.
00:26:26.760 And I think
00:26:27.760 what we're living through now
00:26:28.820 is what I will call
00:26:29.980 a remote dress rehearsal
00:26:31.720 for the Antichrist.
00:26:33.700 When you have
00:26:34.680 someone who
00:26:35.680 is wearing a white hat,
00:26:37.880 who's got the name
00:26:38.680 Pope in front of him,
00:26:40.120 but is allied
00:26:41.140 with worldly powers,
00:26:42.740 that is,
00:26:43.340 almost,
00:26:45.100 if you line up
00:26:45.860 where John Paul II
00:26:46.860 probably would have stood,
00:26:48.760 Pope Francis
00:26:49.180 has taken the opposite stand.
00:26:50.580 For those of you
00:26:51.180 who remember
00:26:51.660 the kind of man,
00:26:52.980 the kind of leadership
00:26:53.540 and decisions
00:26:54.100 that St. John Paul II
00:26:55.120 made,
00:26:55.560 if you compare them
00:26:56.320 to the,
00:26:56.820 to the movements
00:26:57.440 and priorities,
00:26:58.500 hiring and firing
00:26:59.280 of Pope Francis,
00:27:00.000 they almost line up
00:27:00.880 in a,
00:27:01.160 in a direct
00:27:02.200 inverse opposite way.
00:27:03.980 Now this is confusing
00:27:05.080 for Catholics
00:27:05.620 who are used to
00:27:06.460 the vicars of Christ
00:27:07.380 being moral leaders,
00:27:09.480 knowing where
00:27:09.900 true north is,
00:27:10.920 having that,
00:27:11.760 that reliable,
00:27:12.760 a trumpet blast
00:27:14.440 of clarity.
00:27:15.220 We don't have that anymore.
00:27:16.520 We haven't had it
00:27:17.120 since 2013.
00:27:18.680 So Catholics feel
00:27:19.600 kind of dizzy,
00:27:20.560 a little bit disoriented,
00:27:21.540 almost like
00:27:22.060 our Lord is having
00:27:23.520 a really long power nap
00:27:24.960 in the boat
00:27:25.480 and we're,
00:27:26.300 you know,
00:27:26.520 saying,
00:27:26.860 Lord,
00:27:27.120 Lord,
00:27:27.340 come on,
00:27:27.820 do you see the wind?
00:27:29.000 Do you see the storms?
00:27:30.500 And I think it's,
00:27:31.320 it's providential
00:27:32.260 that our Lord
00:27:32.720 gives us that image.
00:27:34.440 And what I cling to
00:27:35.640 as a Catholic
00:27:36.220 is that it's better
00:27:37.480 to have Jesus Christ
00:27:38.620 with us
00:27:39.320 sleeping
00:27:39.980 than not.
00:27:41.980 So him sleeping
00:27:43.060 in the boat
00:27:43.520 is enough.
00:27:44.880 It's not the same
00:27:46.500 active presence
00:27:48.260 that we're accustomed
00:27:49.000 to from previous
00:27:49.980 pontiffs,
00:27:50.660 but I think that
00:27:51.980 all this confusion
00:27:53.360 coming out of Rome
00:27:54.380 is a remote preparation
00:27:55.820 for the rise
00:27:56.540 of the Antichrist.
00:27:57.540 I think there's
00:27:58.120 a certain universal
00:27:59.040 softening of the ground
00:28:00.320 that's happening.
00:28:01.520 We're made for the truth
00:28:02.560 and the fullness of truth
00:28:03.560 and the truth
00:28:04.100 is always simple.
00:28:05.360 It's not complicated.
00:28:06.260 You don't have to
00:28:06.680 kind of line up
00:28:07.860 a bunch of lies
00:28:08.640 and make them
00:28:09.120 hang together
00:28:09.660 and go over
00:28:10.180 and over it.
00:28:10.740 No, it has the ring
00:28:12.620 of simplicity.
00:28:13.840 Jesus says,
00:28:14.440 you shall know the truth
00:28:15.200 and the truth
00:28:15.600 will set you free.
00:28:16.640 Now, if the truth
00:28:17.160 is complex
00:28:17.780 and it's got
00:28:18.220 a bunch of jagged edges,
00:28:19.940 that's not going
00:28:20.720 to set you free.
00:28:22.460 And there's a line
00:28:23.960 from Cardinal Newman,
00:28:24.980 I forget which book
00:28:25.940 or sermon,
00:28:27.200 that he's talking
00:28:28.420 about the Antichrist.
00:28:29.940 And he says,
00:28:30.860 as we say that
00:28:31.700 the Antichrist
00:28:32.740 resembles Christ,
00:28:33.940 we can also say
00:28:34.840 that Christ resembles
00:28:35.660 the Antichrist.
00:28:36.340 So we're talking
00:28:37.540 about an extremely
00:28:38.460 effective level
00:28:40.140 of deception.
00:28:42.200 And you could look
00:28:43.420 at people like
00:28:44.120 Barack Obama
00:28:44.800 as a kind of
00:28:46.000 remote preparation
00:28:46.960 for the Antichrist.
00:28:48.000 But I think
00:28:48.560 what's happening
00:28:49.880 in Rome now
00:28:50.420 is even more potent
00:28:51.280 because it has
00:28:51.980 the external
00:28:53.660 appearances
00:28:54.380 of religious
00:28:56.280 authenticity.
00:28:57.920 And yet it has
00:28:58.820 forked tongue.
00:28:59.580 It has that
00:29:00.060 weaponized ambiguity.
00:29:01.620 So I'm not saying
00:29:02.660 the Pope's the Antichrist.
00:29:03.660 I'm not saying
00:29:04.180 anything like that.
00:29:04.900 I don't know
00:29:05.160 if it's something
00:29:06.180 that's this generation,
00:29:07.320 the next,
00:29:07.640 or in 10,000 years.
00:29:08.920 All I'm saying
00:29:09.620 is the swiftness
00:29:11.700 and the global nature
00:29:12.680 of this confusion
00:29:13.480 I think
00:29:15.140 inclines one
00:29:16.380 if you have
00:29:16.900 an open mind
00:29:17.460 to say
00:29:17.840 we're entering
00:29:19.280 into a whole new
00:29:19.960 chapter now
00:29:20.460 of human history.
00:29:21.160 We've never
00:29:21.480 had to face this.
00:29:22.440 That's the short
00:29:23.100 answer of a
00:29:23.900 complicated question.
00:29:24.760 I'm going to be
00:29:25.060 talking about this
00:29:25.640 soon on my podcast
00:29:26.720 with Dr. Ralph Martin
00:29:27.680 on the understanding
00:29:30.040 of who the Antichrist
00:29:31.200 is,
00:29:31.540 what his role
00:29:33.020 is in ushering
00:29:34.100 in the return
00:29:35.000 of Christ
00:29:35.460 as he promised.
00:29:37.000 I don't think
00:29:37.700 we're there yet.
00:29:38.520 There's several signs
00:29:39.680 in scripture
00:29:40.100 to accompany
00:29:40.660 the second coming.
00:29:42.000 All Israel
00:29:42.700 will be saved,
00:29:43.540 St. Paul says.
00:29:45.040 Wars,
00:29:45.580 rumors of wars.
00:29:46.980 That gets hard
00:29:48.060 to discern as well
00:29:48.900 because of the internet.
00:29:50.460 A lot of people say,
00:29:51.400 oh look,
00:29:52.000 another earthquake.
00:29:52.700 There's an earthquake
00:29:53.120 every day.
00:29:53.880 Well,
00:29:54.280 that's because
00:29:54.800 internet news
00:29:55.460 is instantaneous
00:29:56.900 and now we learn
00:29:57.900 about earthquakes
00:29:58.420 that we never
00:29:58.860 learned about before.
00:29:59.560 So you have to be
00:30:02.320 discerning
00:30:02.800 and make sure
00:30:05.660 you're reading
00:30:05.940 the signs of the times
00:30:06.740 according to what
00:30:07.360 they are
00:30:07.780 and not what
00:30:08.200 you're reading
00:30:09.340 into them as.
00:30:10.240 Does that make sense?
00:30:11.200 Absolutely.
00:30:11.940 Now you've got
00:30:12.480 all this consternation
00:30:13.640 going on.
00:30:14.480 You see a lot
00:30:15.520 of what I see
00:30:16.240 similarly going on
00:30:17.280 in the church.
00:30:17.920 Horrific stuff.
00:30:19.140 Yet this has not
00:30:20.140 caused you
00:30:20.800 one shred of doubt
00:30:22.620 about the veracity
00:30:23.440 of the faith
00:30:23.900 and your devotion
00:30:24.440 to it.
00:30:24.840 Why is that?
00:30:25.440 The worse human
00:30:26.340 leadership gets,
00:30:27.560 the more proof it is
00:30:28.420 of the divine foundation
00:30:29.340 of the church.
00:30:30.860 There's a wonderful
00:30:31.740 story from Boccaccio.
00:30:34.700 It's called
00:30:34.900 The Decameron,
00:30:35.800 a middle-aged story
00:30:36.640 about a Jewish
00:30:37.500 businessman in Paris
00:30:38.480 who gets a visit
00:30:39.200 from the archbishop
00:30:40.540 of Paris.
00:30:41.860 And he knocks on the,
00:30:43.880 they have this conversation
00:30:45.120 and Abraham announces
00:30:46.200 that he wants
00:30:46.580 to be baptized.
00:30:48.200 And the archbishop
00:30:48.800 is thrilled
00:30:49.260 and he says,
00:30:49.900 well,
00:30:50.220 first of all,
00:30:50.820 I want to go to Rome
00:30:51.460 for a couple of weeks.
00:30:52.440 And the archbishop knew
00:30:53.480 this is the era
00:30:54.080 of the Borgia Popes.
00:30:55.040 There's open corruption
00:30:56.020 there in Rome.
00:30:56.980 Don't go to Rome.
00:30:57.680 It's a cesspool.
00:30:58.320 So he's trying
00:30:59.740 to urge Abraham
00:31:00.600 to stay in Paris.
00:31:01.300 Just get baptized today.
00:31:02.660 No,
00:31:03.040 I'm a practical
00:31:03.460 Jewish businessman.
00:31:04.200 I want to go
00:31:04.560 and I want to see
00:31:05.120 the up-close workings
00:31:06.960 of the universal church.
00:31:07.900 So the archbishop
00:31:08.620 reluctantly lets him go
00:31:09.680 and then he comes back
00:31:11.040 two weeks later
00:31:11.660 and he's bright-eyed
00:31:13.020 and bushy-tailed
00:31:13.680 and he says,
00:31:14.240 Your Excellency,
00:31:15.580 would you baptize me now?
00:31:16.580 And he says,
00:31:16.940 you went to Rome
00:31:17.500 and you saw the corruption?
00:31:18.800 Yeah.
00:31:19.560 You still want to be baptized?
00:31:20.600 Do you want to be a Catholic?
00:31:21.440 Of course I do.
00:31:23.100 May I ask why?
00:31:24.660 And he said,
00:31:25.400 what I saw there
00:31:26.300 horrified me.
00:31:27.480 Any organization
00:31:28.200 that corrupt
00:31:28.980 run by those kinds
00:31:30.700 of evil people
00:31:31.360 would have folded
00:31:31.960 two weeks
00:31:32.820 after the resurrection.
00:31:33.680 It has to have God behind it.
00:31:34.820 It's been here 1,500 years.
00:31:35.900 I want in.
00:31:37.880 The bad leadership decisions
00:31:39.600 of Catholics,
00:31:40.520 including me,
00:31:41.480 have nothing to do
00:31:42.400 with whether or not
00:31:42.980 Jesus Christ is Lord
00:31:44.020 and whether or not
00:31:44.560 he founded the Catholic Church.
00:31:45.760 They're two separate questions
00:31:46.800 and I think the devil
00:31:48.060 wants us to conflate them.
00:31:50.120 And we can't.
00:31:51.220 You know,
00:31:51.560 Almighty God,
00:31:52.360 who is pure,
00:31:53.020 who is holy,
00:31:53.620 who is uncreated,
00:31:54.520 who is just the almighty,
00:31:56.060 ineffable God,
00:31:57.740 can do lots of things alone
00:31:58.960 but he chooses sinners
00:31:59.980 like you and I
00:32:01.060 to get things done
00:32:01.980 that he could do himself.
00:32:03.840 And,
00:32:04.220 blessed be God,
00:32:06.040 he's happy to collaborate
00:32:07.700 with sinners
00:32:08.160 as co-workers.
00:32:09.600 And that's all we have.
00:32:10.720 Our life's slipping by quickly.
00:32:13.160 You can't press pause.
00:32:14.160 You can't hit rewind.
00:32:15.500 We have to be
00:32:16.080 what we're created to be
00:32:16.820 which is saints.
00:32:18.100 And sanctity is not optional.
00:32:19.520 It's not for the elite.
00:32:20.400 It's for everyone who's baptized.
00:32:21.860 We're made to hear this.
00:32:23.260 And it hurts to be a saint.
00:32:24.320 It's not easy.
00:32:25.920 It's not for the faint of heart.
00:32:27.200 It's rock climbing.
00:32:28.780 And rock climbing's dangerous.
00:32:30.840 And that's why it's high adventure
00:32:32.320 that I wouldn't want
00:32:33.980 to do anything else.
00:32:35.040 Absolutely.
00:32:35.740 And you are a man of great fun
00:32:38.020 despite being,
00:32:39.220 you know,
00:32:39.860 great acumen
00:32:40.460 and great faith.
00:32:42.140 You do,
00:32:43.180 and I've known you
00:32:44.320 for many years.
00:32:45.460 And one of the first times
00:32:47.100 we met,
00:32:47.740 I got to see something
00:32:49.320 which fascinated me
00:32:50.540 because I'm into it as well.
00:32:52.880 You're a professional magician.
00:32:55.640 I'd like to close off,
00:32:56.900 if we could,
00:32:57.720 with just a little trick
00:32:59.320 if you have one for us.
00:33:00.180 Well,
00:33:01.060 they're called effects, sir,
00:33:02.600 not mere tricks.
00:33:04.540 Yeah,
00:33:05.020 I have a,
00:33:05.660 I have a,
00:33:06.140 it's a,
00:33:06.720 I call it mind hacking.
00:33:08.160 I'm going to present
00:33:08.740 a handful of cards here
00:33:10.740 and I want you,
00:33:12.140 all your staff
00:33:12.820 and your listeners
00:33:13.420 to pick one.
00:33:14.280 Just let your eye
00:33:15.140 just rest upon one.
00:33:16.280 I won't even look
00:33:17.080 at what you're doing.
00:33:18.620 All right?
00:33:19.780 Can you see that?
00:33:20.620 Let me know.
00:33:21.460 Yeah.
00:33:23.020 See the cards?
00:33:23.920 Yep.
00:33:24.460 Got it.
00:33:24.900 Got one.
00:33:25.240 So,
00:33:25.520 you got one?
00:33:26.480 Yeah.
00:33:26.740 Don't change your mind.
00:33:27.340 Just pick that one card.
00:33:28.240 Look at it carefully,
00:33:28.940 okay?
00:33:30.460 Okay.
00:33:33.400 I'm going to try to discern
00:33:34.360 which one you're thinking of.
00:33:36.400 If I get this wrong,
00:33:38.520 I'm going to kick myself.
00:33:43.500 Okay.
00:33:44.040 I think I got it.
00:33:47.000 Yeah.
00:33:47.720 Whoops.
00:33:52.060 Is it gone?
00:33:53.880 Yeah.
00:33:56.420 I got it,
00:33:57.020 right?
00:33:58.500 Thank you.
00:33:59.080 I'm here all day.
00:33:59.620 Try the veal.
00:34:02.800 That's amazing.
00:34:04.060 Love to hear,
00:34:04.760 love to hear
00:34:05.500 how many,
00:34:06.200 for how many
00:34:06.680 of your,
00:34:07.420 of your vast viewers
00:34:08.440 it worked for.
00:34:09.540 That'll be fun
00:34:10.240 to hear in the comments.
00:34:12.140 Awesome.
00:34:13.460 Patrick Coffin,
00:34:14.180 thank you for being with us
00:34:15.060 in this episode
00:34:15.600 of the John Henry Weston Show
00:34:16.740 and God bless all of you.
00:34:18.080 We'll see you next time.
00:34:21.340 Hi,
00:34:21.960 this is John Henry Weston,
00:34:23.000 the co-founder and editor-in-chief
00:34:24.500 of LifeSite News.
00:34:25.880 I'm coming to you today
00:34:27.260 because we want to be sure
00:34:29.520 that we are communicating clearly
00:34:31.380 with you,
00:34:32.240 our loyal followers.
00:34:33.580 Things are really heating up,
00:34:35.920 as I'm sure you can see.
00:34:37.360 Christians,
00:34:38.000 conservative truth-tellers
00:34:39.540 are being targeted,
00:34:41.460 are being banned
00:34:42.340 from social media platforms
00:34:43.640 like Facebook,
00:34:44.560 Twitter,
00:34:44.980 YouTube,
00:34:45.520 and Instagram
00:34:46.320 at an alarmingly fast rate.
00:34:49.460 They are attempting
00:34:50.300 to suppress any narrative
00:34:52.100 that does not fit
00:34:53.120 that of the mainstream media.
00:34:55.080 We knew this day would come.
00:34:57.580 We have been warning everyone
00:34:59.240 who would listen
00:34:59.960 and attempting to build up
00:35:01.720 alternative platforms
00:35:02.960 to continue to reach you.
00:35:05.560 We have established ourselves
00:35:07.060 on all sorts of platforms
00:35:08.420 I'm going to explain in a minute,
00:35:09.560 but the most important thing to do
00:35:11.380 is come direct
00:35:12.140 to LifeSiteNews.com
00:35:14.320 because there we will always be.
00:35:17.200 But we've also established ourselves
00:35:18.780 on platforms like Parler
00:35:20.480 and MeWe
00:35:21.420 and our videos can be found
00:35:23.060 on Rumble as well.
00:35:24.700 We would love to see each of you
00:35:26.840 on those platforms too
00:35:28.000 as they are not censoring
00:35:29.600 or suppressing the truth
00:35:30.900 that we are sharing
00:35:31.720 every single day.
00:35:33.580 More than these alternative
00:35:35.400 social media platforms,
00:35:36.720 we highly encourage you
00:35:38.040 to subscribe
00:35:38.760 to our email newsletter.
00:35:40.060 We have really built up
00:35:42.360 a large list of loyal readers
00:35:44.040 on our email marketing platform
00:35:45.520 and we have prepared
00:35:47.100 several backup plans
00:35:48.600 for, well, I want to say if,
00:35:51.300 but it's really when,
00:35:52.640 we are removed
00:35:53.700 from our current platform as well.
00:35:56.180 Additionally,
00:35:57.060 I really encourage you,
00:35:58.460 as I said before,
00:35:59.440 to make it a regular habit
00:36:00.980 to go directly
00:36:02.040 to LifeSiteNews.com.
00:36:03.660 Make it your homepage.
00:36:05.280 While all of these different platforms
00:36:07.840 are an excellent way
00:36:09.340 to curate your news,
00:36:10.840 going directly to our website
00:36:12.480 means that you will never encounter
00:36:14.320 any censorship
00:36:15.240 or sudden loss
00:36:16.580 of LifeSiteNews reporting.
00:36:18.240 Here's the thing.
00:36:19.680 We will never stop
00:36:21.780 sharing the truth.
00:36:23.080 We founded this organization
00:36:24.520 with the mission
00:36:25.340 to be the life, family,
00:36:27.260 and culture source
00:36:28.240 for men and women
00:36:29.380 who seek to know the truth.
00:36:31.200 We have established
00:36:32.760 a track record
00:36:33.860 of honest reports
00:36:34.940 and this will never stop,
00:36:37.120 even with censorship
00:36:38.960 happening around the globe.
00:36:41.080 Again, I'm encouraging you
00:36:43.180 to join us on Parler,
00:36:44.820 MeWe, Rumble,
00:36:45.740 and on our email list.
00:36:47.480 You can find all the direct links
00:36:49.620 in the description of this video.
00:36:52.360 May God bless you and keep you
00:36:53.780 and we are so thankful
00:36:55.100 that you've chosen to follow
00:36:56.260 and support LifeSiteNews.
00:36:58.960 I'm John Henry Weston,
00:37:00.100 co-founder and editor-in-chief
00:37:01.660 of LifeSiteNews.
