00:00:00.000 You should not be hearing this from me.
00:00:03.300 All the faithful cardinals and bishops of the Church need to stand up and say enough.
00:00:08.720 Enough to the destruction of the teaching of the Church coming from Pope Francis.
00:00:13.820 But because that unified voice of the faithful shepherds is silent,
00:00:18.240 faithful fathers must stand up to defend the faith of their children
00:00:22.180 against the onslaught of the devil and his accomplices in this world,
00:00:26.340 including those false shepherds who seek to devour the sheep.
00:00:30.940 For those of you who may not have heard,
00:00:32.960 Pope Francis has sent homosexuality-promoting priest Father James Martin
00:00:37.180 a personal handwritten letter this week
00:00:40.180 to encourage Martin in his ministry to so-called LGBT Catholics.
00:00:45.220 We're going to unpack this on this special episode of the John Henry Weston Show.
00:00:50.180 Stay tuned.
00:00:56.340 Let's begin, as we always do, with the sign of the cross, 0.50
00:01:12.660 praying especially for the conversion of Pope Francis.
00:01:16.280 In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
00:01:21.060 It is not love to allow your children to rampantly misbehave without correcting them.
00:01:28.240 You know, speaking as a father of eight children,
00:01:30.560 I will admit that it's often easier to turn the other way
00:01:34.100 and purposefully fail to notice misbehavior.
00:01:37.420 But out of love, parents must correct and discipline their children.
00:01:42.880 So too in the Church, especially her shepherds.
00:01:45.060 The fathers of souls must feed the flock, must teach the truths,
00:01:50.360 however difficult and politically incorrect.
00:01:53.680 Because that is true love.
00:01:56.980 Silence on the hard truths of homosexuality 1.00
00:02:00.720 was specifically warned against by the Vatican.
00:02:04.600 The man who became Pope Benedict XVI,
00:02:07.620 while he headed up the Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith,
00:02:10.520 made a public statement directed to the bishops of the Catholic Church
00:02:14.980 saying that silence about the Church's teachings
00:02:18.500 regarding the spiritual harm of homosexual acts 0.79
00:02:21.600 presents a false charity,
00:02:24.180 which is, in his words,
00:02:25.400 neither caring nor pastoral.
00:02:28.280 It was a 1986 CDF document entitled
00:02:31.980 Letter to the Bishops of the Catholic Church
00:02:34.440 on the Pastoral Care of Homosexual Persons.
00:02:37.880 The document emphasized the necessity of,
00:02:41.100 and I quote,
00:02:41.540 clearly stating that homosexual activity
00:02:45.060 is immoral, end quote.
00:02:47.420 The instruction to the bishops of the world
00:02:49.580 on homosexuality signed by then-Cardinal Ratzinger,
00:02:52.940 who of course later became Pope Benedict,
00:02:55.020 added these words, quote,
00:02:56.720 But we wish to make it clear
00:02:58.740 that departure from the Church's teaching
00:03:01.040 or silence about it
00:03:02.820 in an effort to provide pastoral care
00:03:05.180 is neither caring nor pastoral.
00:03:07.240 It continued,
00:03:08.760 Only what is true can ultimately be pastoral.
00:03:12.460 The neglect of the Church's position
00:03:14.440 prevents homosexual men and women 0.96
00:03:16.240 from receiving the care that they need
00:03:18.840 and deserve, end quote.
00:03:21.640 And that is exactly what Father James Martin
00:03:24.740 is doing in encouraging the Church
00:03:27.120 to bless same-sex unions.
00:03:28.580 He is not being loving,
00:03:30.100 not being pastoral,
00:03:31.380 and in supporting his attack on the faith,
00:03:34.460 Pope Francis, too, is harming the faithful,
00:03:38.460 especially those who suffer
00:03:40.520 from same-sex attraction.
00:03:42.620 At LifeSite, we have followed the career
00:03:44.580 of Father Martin promoting homosexuality 0.99
00:03:46.560 for over a decade.
00:03:47.860 Please go check it out at LifeSiteNews.com.
00:03:50.820 But we were warned
00:03:53.140 right from the beginning of the Church
00:03:55.740 that this time would come.
00:03:58.240 St. Paul warned in 2 Timothy 4
00:04:01.420 when he said, and I quote,
00:04:02.460 For the time will come
00:04:04.700 when they will not endure sound doctrine,
00:04:07.180 but according to their own desires
00:04:08.760 they will heap to themselves
00:04:10.580 teachers having itching ears.
00:04:13.000 But St. Paul, the apostle to the Gentiles,
00:04:15.620 strictly directed all bishops,
00:04:17.600 he was writing Bishop Timothy at the time,
00:04:19.460 to fulfill the ministry of evangelizing.
00:04:22.200 Nevertheless, he said, and I quote,
00:04:24.200 and this is in the Scriptures,
00:04:25.080 I charge thee before God and Jesus Christ,
00:04:29.240 who shall judge the living and the dead
00:04:31.040 by his coming and his kingdom,
00:04:33.760 preach the word,
00:04:34.800 be insistent in season and out of season,
00:04:37.260 reprove, entreat,
00:04:38.620 rebuke in all patience and doctrine.
00:04:41.740 End quote.
00:04:43.200 So let's look at the example,
00:04:45.060 for instance, of Pope Benedict XVI
00:04:47.460 and the Vatican under him
00:04:49.060 and at the time of Pope St. John Paul II.
00:04:52.020 Second, in 2005,
00:04:54.560 Cardinal Alfonso LĂłpez Trujillo,
00:04:56.880 who was at the time president
00:04:58.060 of the Pontifical Council for the Family,
00:05:00.060 gave one of the strongest statements
00:05:01.680 defending the traditional family
00:05:03.140 ever voiced in the church.
00:05:05.040 Cardinal Trujillo said,
00:05:06.660 parliaments which, quote,
00:05:08.100 open the way for same-sex marriage,
00:05:10.420 destroy piece by piece
00:05:11.960 the institution of the family,
00:05:13.600 the most valuable heritage of peoples
00:05:15.700 and humanity, end quote.
00:05:17.660 He called homosexual marriage,
00:05:19.580 and I quote,
00:05:20.020 a crime which represents
00:05:22.020 the destruction of the world,
00:05:24.620 end quote.
00:05:25.480 And speaking of adoption of children
00:05:28.180 by homosexual couples,
00:05:29.980 Cardinal Trujillo said,
00:05:31.240 and I quote,
00:05:32.140 this would destroy the child's future.
00:05:35.260 It would be an act of moral violence
00:05:38.160 against the child, end quote.
00:05:41.120 With those strong words,
00:05:43.380 he awoke many to the dangers
00:05:45.320 of the worldwide assault on the family.
00:05:47.460 Importantly, the Cardinal explained
00:05:50.460 that it was out of love
00:05:53.440 that the church was pointing out these dangers.
00:05:56.460 Love not only for society at large,
00:05:58.300 but also for homosexuals themselves.
00:06:00.500 He said, and I quote,
00:06:01.600 as I have said many times,
00:06:04.120 homosexual peoples must be respected,
00:06:07.020 loved, and assisted.
00:06:08.240 We must help them overcome this situation
00:06:10.920 if they seriously want to,
00:06:12.720 and help them realize
00:06:14.940 that there is not only life on earth,
00:06:18.580 there is another life.
00:06:20.460 It is false to say
00:06:22.220 that the church does not love these people.
00:06:24.460 She loves them
00:06:25.160 and wants to lead them
00:06:26.820 to eternal salvation, end quote.
00:06:30.900 In an address to the Roman Curia
00:06:33.420 on December 22, 2008,
00:06:35.600 Pope Benedict XVI
00:06:36.640 capitalized on the popular ecology trend,
00:06:39.900 calling for a human ecology.
00:06:43.480 He said respecting the creator's
00:06:45.420 natural order of relationships
00:06:47.020 between man and woman
00:06:48.560 would be a human ecology.
00:06:51.220 In language very similar to that
00:06:53.300 of Cardinal Trujillo,
00:06:55.220 Pope Benedict XVI, the Holy Father,
00:06:57.460 at the time said,
00:06:58.720 the church must, quote,
00:06:59.840 protect man from his own self-destruction,
00:07:03.320 end quote.
00:07:04.760 The Pope added, and I quote again,
00:07:06.840 if the church speaks
00:07:08.740 of the nature of the human being
00:07:11.740 as man and woman
00:07:13.000 and demands that this order of creation
00:07:15.740 be respected,
00:07:16.800 this is not some antiquated metaphysics.
00:07:19.340 What is involved here
00:07:20.980 is faith in the creator
00:07:23.440 and a readiness to listen
00:07:25.200 to the language of creation.
00:07:26.900 To disregard this
00:07:28.080 would be the self-destruction
00:07:30.340 of man himself
00:07:31.260 and hence the destruction
00:07:32.980 of God's own work, end quote.
00:07:35.140 The Pope did not speak
00:07:38.060 on the subject to be popular,
00:07:40.360 not because he had some vendetta
00:07:42.580 against gays, 0.99
00:07:43.720 as was said at the time.
00:07:45.580 He was preaching caritas in veritate,
00:07:47.740 speaking the truth out of love,
00:07:49.960 love for God and his truth,
00:07:52.020 love for mankind as a whole,
00:07:53.620 but specifically love
00:07:55.400 for his fellow human beings
00:07:57.340 who are hurting themselves
00:07:59.100 with destructive sexual lifestyles.
00:08:01.440 But for this remark,
00:08:04.540 he was castigated
00:08:06.360 in the mainstream press.
00:08:07.940 In thousands of news articles
00:08:09.580 and talk shows around the world,
00:08:11.220 from Bulgaria to India,
00:08:12.700 Pope Benedict was bashed
00:08:14.280 for daring to say
00:08:15.900 that we should care
00:08:16.880 as much for mankind
00:08:17.780 as the tropical rainforests,
00:08:20.220 that the harm caused
00:08:21.600 by going against the creator's
00:08:23.040 plan for human sexuality
00:08:24.260 is destructive and hurtful.
00:08:26.440 The homosexual press 1.00
00:08:28.000 had the most outrageous headlines
00:08:30.340 on the topic.
00:08:31.180 A pink news headline
00:08:32.280 at the time in the UK,
00:08:33.620 it read,
00:08:34.600 Pope Benedict learned nothing
00:08:36.400 from his time
00:08:37.360 in the Hitler Youth,
00:08:38.520 end quote.
00:08:39.340 And Pope Benedict's latest outburst
00:08:41.680 justifies homophobic bullying
00:08:44.100 and attacks, they said.
00:08:46.220 But the coverage
00:08:46.800 in the mainstream media,
00:08:48.060 it was hardly less offensive.
00:08:49.920 A San Francisco Chronicle headline read,
00:08:52.720 Pope Benedict at Christmas,
00:08:54.460 colon,
00:08:55.240 preaching bigotry
00:08:56.140 disguised as compassion.
00:08:57.500 So, what you might ask
00:08:59.620 might come of the approach
00:09:01.380 of Fr. James Martin
00:09:02.360 and Pope Francis
00:09:03.240 and the betraying
00:09:05.280 of the truth of Christ
00:09:06.020 in the difficult matters
00:09:07.100 of these.
00:09:08.400 Well, of course,
00:09:09.480 what comes is the praise
00:09:10.440 of the world.
00:09:11.100 Kudos from high-ranking politicians
00:09:13.180 and world leaders,
00:09:14.420 the appreciation and company
00:09:16.360 of the glitterati,
00:09:17.720 the adulation of the media.
00:09:19.960 They're stars.
00:09:20.980 They're loved by the world.
00:09:22.620 They're welcomed
00:09:23.440 into the halls of power
00:09:24.960 and of fame.
00:09:27.160 But it's love
00:09:28.340 that compels a parent
00:09:29.620 to remove a child
00:09:31.020 from a dangerous situation,
00:09:32.540 even when that child
00:09:33.500 is complaining
00:09:34.220 about his parents being mean
00:09:35.700 for depriving him
00:09:36.900 of his fun.
00:09:38.000 But it would not be love
00:09:39.240 at all
00:09:39.760 to allow your little child
00:09:41.220 to harm himself
00:09:42.160 by engaging
00:09:43.300 in dangerous activities.
00:09:45.700 It's not easy
00:09:46.780 to speak against homosexuality today.
00:09:49.520 It doesn't make you popular.
00:09:51.300 It may cost you
00:09:52.260 your friends,
00:09:53.160 reputation,
00:09:53.700 even your job,
00:09:55.160 as it has
00:09:55.680 for some people already.
00:09:57.740 But our bodies
00:09:58.860 were not designed
00:09:59.920 for same-sex sexual behavior.
00:10:01.980 And our anatomy itself
00:10:03.440 gives that testimony.
00:10:05.620 The negative mental
00:10:06.800 and physical health consequences
00:10:08.400 that flow
00:10:09.080 from homosexual sex acts 0.87
00:10:10.580 are many.
00:10:12.100 And the medical evidence
00:10:13.300 pointing to them
00:10:14.160 is readily available
00:10:15.360 on LifeSiteNews.com.
00:10:17.160 But even if you question
00:10:19.300 the science,
00:10:20.700 at least listen to
00:10:21.820 the homosexual activists 0.69
00:10:22.960 themselves,
00:10:24.040 describe the many woes
00:10:25.500 experienced
00:10:26.020 by practicing homosexuals. 0.78
00:10:27.880 On February 17th,
00:10:31.420 in 2009,
00:10:32.800 Canada's largest
00:10:33.880 homosexual paper,
00:10:34.880 called Extra,
00:10:35.980 reported on a group
00:10:36.940 of homosexual activists
00:10:38.060 who were demanding
00:10:39.220 Canada's healthcare system
00:10:40.500 pay more attention
00:10:41.500 to the gay community.
00:10:44.280 Jens Helquist
00:10:45.100 was the executive director
00:10:46.500 of the Canadian
00:10:47.700 Rainbow Health Coalition,
00:10:48.960 a leading homosexual 1.00
00:10:49.740 activist group.
00:10:50.720 He explained at length
00:10:51.880 his concerns about
00:10:52.920 the health status
00:10:54.080 of homosexual men 0.96
00:10:55.380 and women in Canada.
00:10:56.320 He said,
00:10:56.680 and I quote,
00:10:58.000 We have one of the poorest
00:10:59.220 health statuses
00:11:00.160 in this country.
00:11:01.420 Health issues affecting
00:11:02.480 queer Canadians 0.64
00:11:03.240 include lower life expectancy
00:11:04.680 than the average Canadian,
00:11:06.120 suicide, 0.90
00:11:06.760 higher rates of substance abuse,
00:11:08.380 depression,
00:11:09.120 inadequate access to care,
00:11:10.640 and HIV AIDS.
00:11:12.140 He added,
00:11:12.800 and I quote again,
00:11:13.640 There are all kinds
00:11:14.900 of health issues
00:11:15.540 that are endemic
00:11:16.360 to our community.
00:11:17.040 We have higher rates
00:11:18.400 of anal cancer
00:11:19.300 in the gay male community.
00:11:20.760 Lesbians have higher rates 1.00
00:11:21.760 of breast cancer.
00:11:22.780 The reality is,
00:11:24.480 there is,
00:11:25.240 he said,
00:11:26.140 more GLBT people
00:11:28.420 in this country
00:11:29.320 who die of suicide
00:11:31.600 each year
00:11:32.320 than die from AIDS.
00:11:33.440 There are more
00:11:34.040 who die early deaths
00:11:35.400 from substance abuse
00:11:36.660 than die of HIV AIDS.
00:11:38.760 And he concluded saying,
00:11:40.180 Now that we can get married,
00:11:41.620 everyone assumes
00:11:42.500 that we don't have
00:11:43.280 any issues anymore.
00:11:44.360 A lot of the deaths
00:11:45.340 that occur in our community
00:11:46.440 are hidden.
00:11:47.260 We don't see them.
00:11:48.360 Those of us
00:11:48.900 who are working
00:11:49.900 on the front lines
00:11:51.100 see them.
00:11:51.960 And I'm tired
00:11:52.860 of watching
00:11:53.680 my community die.
00:11:56.220 End quote.
00:11:56.880 Even beyond
00:11:57.880 the heart-wrenching,
00:12:00.040 physical,
00:12:00.600 and psychological damage
00:12:01.780 the homosexual lifestyle 1.00
00:12:02.780 causes,
00:12:03.260 there are also
00:12:04.560 the spiritual costs
00:12:06.160 which can be eternal.
00:12:08.520 So if you believe
00:12:10.220 in the eternal consequences
00:12:12.460 for sexual sin,
00:12:13.920 you cannot stay silent.
00:12:15.480 to do so
00:12:17.080 would in fact
00:12:17.920 be a true act
00:12:19.160 of hate.
00:12:20.780 You know,
00:12:21.160 even a committed
00:12:21.880 atheist can see that.
00:12:23.980 Penn Jillette
00:12:24.620 of the famous
00:12:25.480 Christian bashing show 0.82
00:12:27.180 Penn & Teller
00:12:27.960 said these words
00:12:29.220 back in 2008
00:12:30.220 and I quote,
00:12:31.400 If you believe
00:12:32.700 that there's a heaven
00:12:33.500 and hell
00:12:34.120 and that people
00:12:35.100 could be going to hell
00:12:36.440 or not getting
00:12:37.240 eternal life
00:12:37.880 or whatever
00:12:38.320 and you think
00:12:39.100 it's not really worth
00:12:40.860 telling them this
00:12:41.840 because it would
00:12:43.060 make it socially awkward?
00:12:44.620 How much do you
00:12:45.260 have to hate somebody
00:12:46.160 not to proselytize?
00:12:47.340 How much do you
00:12:47.740 have to hate somebody
00:12:48.580 to believe that
00:12:49.680 everlasting life
00:12:50.520 is possible
00:12:51.220 and not tell them
00:12:52.460 that?
00:12:53.380 End quote.
00:12:54.860 So,
00:12:56.120 do we love
00:12:57.980 people inclined
00:12:59.000 to homosexual sex 0.99
00:12:59.920 enough to tell them
00:13:00.860 that it's bad for them
00:13:01.940 even though
00:13:03.140 telling them that
00:13:04.040 is socially awkward?
00:13:05.460 Therefore,
00:13:07.940 I beg you
00:13:09.280 good priests
00:13:10.060 and bishops
00:13:10.560 to speak out
00:13:11.460 with conviction
00:13:12.580 and love
00:13:13.740 the truths of Christ
00:13:15.180 especially
00:13:15.880 in these hard areas
00:13:17.560 of human sexuality
00:13:18.860 even if that means
00:13:20.460 publicly correcting
00:13:21.880 Pope Francis.
00:13:23.100 You will be criticized
00:13:24.280 for it
00:13:24.920 but you must trust
00:13:27.080 that God will see to it
00:13:28.200 that the truth
00:13:28.840 is well received.
00:13:31.320 Love demands it
00:13:32.180 and the future
00:13:32.900 of Christianity
00:13:33.600 depends on it.
00:13:35.620 Well,
00:13:35.860 you might ask,
00:13:36.360 oh,
00:13:36.480 how can I say
00:13:37.020 that the future
00:13:37.540 of Christianity
00:13:37.980 depends on it
00:13:38.820 since we know
00:13:39.520 that Christ
00:13:40.060 will be with his church
00:13:41.880 until the end of time?
00:13:43.540 Well,
00:13:43.820 it's because
00:13:44.240 in this battle
00:13:45.400 of homosexuality 1.00
00:13:46.300 the time of persecution
00:13:48.320 of the church
00:13:49.020 is near at hand
00:13:50.340 and indeed
00:13:50.820 in many parts
00:13:52.040 it's already arrived.
00:13:53.960 It's not my estimation.
00:13:56.660 In fact,
00:13:57.480 Pope Benedict XVI
00:13:58.480 he said this
00:13:59.940 already a long time ago
00:14:01.000 in an address
00:14:02.200 given only 18 days
00:14:03.720 prior to his election
00:14:04.660 to the pontificate
00:14:05.380 and one day
00:14:06.140 prior to the death
00:14:06.960 of Pope John Paul II
00:14:08.020 then Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger
00:14:10.260 said,
00:14:10.880 and I quote,
00:14:12.020 very soon
00:14:12.960 it will not be possible
00:14:14.740 to state
00:14:15.420 that homosexuality 1.00
00:14:16.680 as the Catholic Church
00:14:18.140 teaches
00:14:18.480 is an objective disorder
00:14:20.760 in the structuring
00:14:22.040 of human existence
00:14:23.080 end quote.
00:14:24.760 Yes,
00:14:25.800 the time
00:14:26.420 may be coming shortly
00:14:27.520 when we are forbidden
00:14:29.260 to state
00:14:30.020 the basic truths
00:14:31.160 of the church.
00:14:31.660 will we then
00:14:33.660 have the courage
00:14:34.460 to proclaim
00:14:35.060 Christ's truth
00:14:35.960 when the possibility
00:14:37.400 of losing our freedom
00:14:38.720 or perhaps even
00:14:39.600 shedding our blood
00:14:40.440 is there?
00:14:41.440 If we choose
00:14:42.260 silence now
00:14:43.460 because of cultural pressures
00:14:45.040 the loss of human respect
00:14:46.360 and political calculations
00:14:47.760 how can we imagine
00:14:50.220 that when the penalties
00:14:51.580 are increased
00:14:52.180 to include
00:14:52.980 imprisonment
00:14:53.740 and possibly even
00:14:54.560 torment and death
00:14:55.460 we will dare
00:14:57.100 to speak
00:14:58.060 the truth of Christ?
00:14:59.260 For LifeSite News
00:15:01.420 this is John Henry Weston
00:15:02.560 and may God bless you.
00:15:06.200 Hi,
00:15:06.760 this is John Henry Weston
00:15:07.760 the co-founder
00:15:08.300 and editor-in-chief
00:15:09.300 of LifeSite News.
00:15:10.700 I'm coming to you today
00:15:12.060 because we want
00:15:13.300 to be sure
00:15:14.320 that we are
00:15:15.020 communicating clearly
00:15:16.180 with you
00:15:16.900 our loyal followers.
00:15:18.440 Things are really
00:15:19.800 heating up
00:15:20.640 as I'm sure you can see
00:15:21.800 Christians,
00:15:22.800 conservative
00:15:23.360 truth-tellers
00:15:24.340 are being targeted
00:15:26.120 are being banned
00:15:27.140 from social media platforms
00:15:28.440 like Facebook,
00:15:29.360 Twitter,
00:15:29.780 YouTube,
00:15:30.320 and Instagram
00:15:31.140 at an alarmingly
00:15:33.140 fast rate.
00:15:34.420 They are attempting
00:15:35.100 to suppress
00:15:35.760 any narrative
00:15:36.900 that does not fit
00:15:37.920 that of the mainstream media.
00:15:39.900 We knew
00:15:40.740 this day would come.
00:15:42.380 We have been warning
00:15:43.500 everyone who would listen
00:15:44.780 and attempting
00:15:45.620 to build up
00:15:46.520 alternative platforms
00:15:47.740 to continue
00:15:48.800 to reach you.
00:15:50.380 We have established
00:15:51.380 ourselves on all sorts
00:15:52.680 of platforms
00:15:53.220 I'm going to explain
00:15:53.960 in a minute
00:15:54.380 but the most important
00:15:55.700 thing to do
00:15:56.200 is come direct
00:15:56.940 to LifeSiteNews.com
00:15:59.120 because there
00:16:00.260 we will always be.
00:16:02.020 But we've also
00:16:02.600 established ourselves
00:16:03.580 on platforms
00:16:04.580 like Parler
00:16:05.280 and MeWe
00:16:06.240 and our videos
00:16:07.200 can be found
00:16:07.840 on Rumble as well.
00:16:09.520 We would love
00:16:10.600 to see each of you
00:16:11.640 on those platforms too
00:16:12.800 as they are not
00:16:13.920 censoring
00:16:14.420 or suppressing
00:16:15.240 the truth
00:16:15.700 that we are sharing
00:16:16.540 every single day.
00:16:18.460 More than these
00:16:19.740 alternative social media
00:16:20.760 platforms,
00:16:21.540 we highly encourage you
00:16:22.860 to subscribe
00:16:23.580 to our email newsletter.
00:16:25.360 We have really built
00:16:27.020 up a large list
00:16:28.000 of loyal readers
00:16:28.840 on our email
00:16:29.460 marketing platform
00:16:30.320 and we have prepared
00:16:31.900 several backup plans
00:16:33.400 for, well,
00:16:35.220 I want to say if
00:16:36.000 but it's really when,
00:16:37.440 we are removed
00:16:38.520 from our current
00:16:39.240 platform as well.
00:16:40.980 Additionally,
00:16:41.900 I really encourage you
00:16:43.160 as I said before
00:16:44.120 to make it a regular
00:16:45.440 habit to go directly
00:16:46.860 to LifeSiteNews.com.
00:16:48.460 Make it your homepage.
00:16:50.440 While all of these
00:16:51.840 different platforms
00:16:52.640 are an excellent way
00:16:54.140 to curate your news,
00:16:55.640 going directly
00:16:56.440 to our website
00:16:57.280 means that you
00:16:58.140 will never encounter
00:16:59.120 any censorship
00:17:00.040 or sudden loss
00:17:01.380 of LifeSiteNews reporting.
00:17:03.060 Here's the thing.
00:17:04.480 We will never stop
00:17:06.580 sharing the truth.
00:17:07.880 We founded this organization
00:17:09.340 with the mission
00:17:10.160 to be the life,
00:17:11.760 family,
00:17:12.080 and culture source
00:17:13.060 for men and women
00:17:14.180 who seek to know
00:17:15.500 the truth.
00:17:16.500 We have established
00:17:17.560 a track record
00:17:18.660 of honest reports
00:17:19.740 and this will never stop.
00:17:21.580 even with censorship
00:17:23.760 happening around the globe.
00:17:25.880 Again,
00:17:26.640 I'm encouraging you
00:17:27.980 to join us on Parler,
00:17:29.620 MeWe, Rumble,
00:17:30.540 and on our email list.
00:17:32.200 You can find
00:17:33.020 all the direct links
00:17:34.420 in the description
00:17:35.540 of this video.
00:17:37.160 May God bless you
00:17:38.080 and keep you
00:17:38.600 and we are so thankful
00:17:39.920 that you've chosen
00:17:40.620 to follow and support
00:17:42.000 LifeSiteNews.
00:17:43.580 I'm John Henry Weston,
00:17:45.140 co-founder and editor-in-chief
00:17:46.500 of LifeSiteNews.
