“In his political farsightedness he did not seek contacts with politicians, but with great men, with the leader of Italy and with the leader of the German people … God who dissects the destiny of nations and controls the hearts of Kings has given us Dr. Ante Pavelic and moved the leader of a friendly and allied people, Adolf Hitler, to use his victorious troops to disperse our oppressors and enable us to create the Independent State of Croatia. Glory be to God, our gratitude to Adolf Hitler and infinite love and loyalty to chief Dr. Ante Pavelic!”

- Dr. Felix Niedzielski, appointed president of the Crusader Organization for Banja Luka by Abp. Stepinac in 1937 (Nedelja, April 27, 1941).

“Until now, God spoke through papal encyclicals, numerous sermons, cathechisms, the Christian press, through missions, through the heroic examples of the saints, and so on … And? They closed their ears. They were deaf. Now God has decided to use other methods. He will prepare missions. European missions- ! World missions! They will be upheld not by priests but by army commanders led by Hitler. The sermons will be well heard with the help of cannons, machine guns, tanks and bombers. The language of these sermons will be international. No one will be able to complain that he did not understand it, because all people know very well what death is, and what wounds, disease, hunger, fear, slavery and poverty are.”

- Fr. Petar Pajic in the diocesan newspaper (The Catholic Weekly, No. 35, of August 31, 1941.) of the Archbishop of Sarajevo, Ivan Saric.

“The Serbs have only three ways out: to accept the Catholic faith, to move out or to be cleansed with the metal broom.”

- Fr. Ante Djuric

“Before our escape, all (Serbian) government employees and teachers received an order from priest Djuric to submit their petitions for conversions to Catholicism or to leave their residence and posts. After they applied for conversion they were told confidentially to coerce all other Serbs to accept Catholicism or else to move wherever they could if they wanted to escape execution.

In this manner, all heads of families were compelled to come to their local teacher, with a 10 dinar tax stamp, to make out a petition for conversion to Catholicism for themselves and their families….

The Serbs in the District of Dvor na Uni shook with fear at the mention of the name of Priest Djuric, who imprisoned the Serbs in his stable and barn where he tortured them with hunger and whipping until they accepted Catholicism.”

- Serbian Orthodox priests, Mladen Ostojic of Zirovac, and Ilija Vranjesevic of Ljubina on Fr. Djuric's activities

Interesting how primary sources are used here, and not post-war third party ones, which anti-NS Catholics love to use to try and prove Stepinač wasn’t a collaborator. They quite literally have nothing more than university professors.

Whenever I see them use evidence from the Ustashi period, they don’t actually give a citation, just a date and Stepinac’s name next to it.

Sourced from the book ‘Adolf Hitler Collection of Speeches 1922-1945’ p. 461-463 (it’s on 462 but other two pages are extremely relevant)

The following are excerpts from Lokasenna, a poem within the Poetic Edda. This is from Jackson Crawford's translation.

It's a poem of Loki showing up to Odin's hall in Asgard, getting drunk, and insulting everyone by "airing out their dirty laundry".
It is clear Loki is trying to trigger the other gods with his taunts but curiously, nobody accuses him of lying and one person actually acts defensive about what they're accused of saying "it's not that bad at least I didn't do x".

The Norse-gods are quite comfortable with their non-virtuous non-traditional lifestyles where they fornicate and even racemix with every man, woman and creature in Asgard; including their own siblings.

"We are witnessing a negrification, a mongrelisation, and a decline of the white race in the face of faster-breeding, inferior races."

On abortion

The reason why we have such a massive slaughter of the innocents is because we have become a fornicating society, and adulterous society, a masturbating society, a homosexual society and a contraceptive society. Unchaste people are selfish people. They will not stop at murder if an unborn child would be a burden to their indulgence and sexual pleasure.

- Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J

On the sin of sodomy


"Like the nation's that the Lord makes to perish before you, so you shall perish; because you would not listen to the voice of the Lord your God"

-Deuteronomy, 8:20


" Just as people participate in the glory of God in different degrees, so also in hell some suffer more than others. He who lived with this vice of sodomy suffers more than another, for this is the greatest sin."

- Saint Bernardine of Siena


"If someone commits that nefarious crime against nature (sodomy) that caused divine wrath to be unleashed against the children of iniquity, he will be given over to the secular arm for punishment (up to death); and if he is a cleric, he will be subject to the same punishment after having been stripped of all his degrees"

- Saint Pope Pius V


"It (homosexuality) is disagreeable to the demons, not because evil displeases them and they find pleasure in good, but because their nature is angelic and thus is repulsed upon seeing such an enormous sin being committed. It is true that it is the demon who hits the sinner with the poisoned arrow of list, bit when a man carries out such a sinful act, the demon leaves."

- Saint Catherine of Siena, *quoting God


"Therefore not only are their passions (of the homosexuals) satanic, but their lives will be diabolic... So I say to you that these are even worse than murderers, and that it would be better to die than to live in such dishonor. A murderer only separates the soul from the body, whereas, these destroy the soul inside the body... There is nothing, absolutely nothing more mad or damaging than this perversity."

- Saint John Chrysostom


"The red pestilence no longer marches across our land (Poland), but a new, neo-Marxist one has appeared, which seeks to conquer spirits, hearts and minds- not red but rainbow."

- Archbishop Marek Jędraszewski

SAINT VALENTINE, PRIEST AND MARTYR

The Holy Church honours today St. Valentine: he consacrated himself on following the Redeemer “bringing the cross behind Him” (Evangelium); “having sacrificed his life for Him, he found it” (Introitus), because he was “victorious in the terrible fights” (Epistola), God “has crowned him with glory and honour” (Offertorium).
Valentine, lived in the III century, he was a Roman priest of great reputation, wisdom and holiness, admired for his gifts not only by the Christian faithful, but also by the pagans themselves. His charity made him acclaimed as the "father of the poor"; his zeal for religion was all the more effective the purer and more selfless it was. His humility, his meekness, his firmness of thought and an aura of sanctity in every action kidnapped the souls of anyone who had anything to do with him, earning him sincere esteem and respect.

This great fame of his rare gifts quickly reached the court of Emperor Claudius II Gothicus: he had often heard of him as an excellent man, who stood out among all, and so he decided to invite him to court. The Emperor himself welcomed him by expressing how much esteem and respect he had for Valentine. As soon as he appeared before him, Claudius said: "Please, why don't you want to enjoy our friendship and live united with the citizens of our republic?" I have heard many things about your wisdom and virtue, but I do not understand how, being you so wise, you can follow the vain superstition of Christians”. To which the venerable priest replied: “Oh if you knew, oh lord, and if you knew the gift of God! I know well that you would rejoice, and your republic with you, and you would consider yourselves too happy to have as master Him whom I adore and serve. How soon would you be bored with the worship that you now blindly lend to the demons! I assure you that you would soon adore the true God, the One who created heaven and earth from nothing and all that is included in this vast universe, and His only Son, Jesus Christ, Redeemer of mankind, equal in everything to God the Father. From Him is the empire. He alone can make your happiness, and that of all your subjects!”
The sweetness and the gentle way of speaking captured the heart of Claudius; at the side of the emperor was a certain doctor who, when he realized that the words of Valentine made a breach in the heart of the sovereign, immediately interrupted the Saint's speech and replied: "And what do you think then, what concept do you have of our great god Jupiter , and of Mercury? “. "What I think - answered the holy priest - is exactly what you yourselves should think, that is, that there were no men more impious and selfish than those you call gods: your poets have put all their study in letting you know their filth and infamous deeds. You have their stories in hand: just show me their genealogy, and the summary of their life; and I will give you a winning case, if it does not appear evident that they were unjust men, gross and wicked “.
Such an unexpected and precise answer made the doctor go into a rage, and he began to shout: «This is a blasphemer! A sacrilege!”, And his cries echoed others, asking for the Saint to be sentenced to death. The Emperor, however, perhaps internally persuaded of the truth he had heard or perhaps not paying attention to the cries of the courtiers, wanted to continue talking with the saint, and after having questioned him with great affability about the many mysteries of the Christian religion, he said to him: "If Jesus Christ is God, why does he not manifest himself? Why don't you let me know such truth so interesting?”. "Hear your mercy, oh great prince," the Saint replied: and after explaining to him in the strongest and clearest way the essential points of the Christian faith, he added: "Do you, Emperor, want to be happy? Do you want the empire to flourish and all your enemies to be destroyed, and do you want to ensure yourself eternal happiness?
You must cling to this party, and to this great memory: repent from the heart of the excesses committed in shedding the blood of so many innocent Christians condemned to death by you; believe in Jesus Christ, submit your empire to His holy laws, and receive Baptism. As there is no God other than the God of Christians, so there is no salvation to be hoped for outside this religion. Yes, or great prince, outside of Christianity there is no salvation”.
The energy and wisdom of the conversation he had with Valentine had truly moved the heart of the Emperor, who, unable to conceal the strong impression received in his own spirit, addressed the courtiers: "It must be recognized that this man is telling us many good doctrines. You too, Roman citizens, hear the great truths that he announces to us, against which it is difficult to defend oneself: there is no argument that can reply to him”.

At these words the prefect of the city, named Calpurnius, exclaimed: “You, oh prince, are seduced by a false doctrine! This deceiver has blown your mind. And how will we leave the religion of our ancestors, which we have received since the cradle, to embrace such a vile and unknown sect?”. The seditious reply of the prefect made Claudius fear a rebellion against him, and a foolish fear took possession of the soul that a short time before had seen the grace that stimulated him to convert; sacrificing his salvation to such vile human respect, he stifled all his feelings and handed Valentine to the prefect, telling him: "Listen to him with patience, and if you don't recognize that his doctrine is right, judge him according to the laws of the empire." Then Calpurnius handed over Valentine to Asterius, the judge, to start a trial, with the promise that if he won and managed to humiliate the priest he would be rewarded with gold and silver.
Asterius, who had witnessed the truths announced by Valentine, since that opportunity presented itself to him, wanted to have the pleasure of speaking to him personally and attempting all possible tricks to make the venerable priest's faith shake. He therefore made him entertain at his house and the Saint entered it, raising his eyes and hands to heaven, knelt down and began to pray: "My Lord Jesus Christ, Creator and Redeemer of mankind, who are the true light and rest of we miserable pilgrims, with the light of Your faith enlighten the minds of those who live in this house, so that they may know you, Oh Lord, who together with the Father and the Holy Spirit live for ever and ever ”.
Asterius, hearing this prayer, said: “I admire that, being you esteemed man of such good sense, you consider your Christ as true light. Oh if you only knew what compassion I feel in seeing you lying in such errors!”. “I am wrong! - the Saint exclaimed - Know, Asterius, that the more I am in error, that indeed nothing is truer than this truth, that is, that my Jesus, and Savior of the world, Who deigned to become man for us, let Him be the true light, which illuminates whoever comes into the world”. “If this is true - continued Asterius, almost laughing - I want to give it a try. I have a daughter, dearly loved, who has been blind for many years: if you arrange for your Christ to restore her lost sight, I promise you to become a Christian with my whole family”. “Come on then - answered the Saint - let her come to my presence!”.
The father requested to take his daughter and Valentine, as soon as he saw her, whining and shedding tears, raised his eyes to heaven made the sign of the Cross over the eyes of the girl, and said: "My Lord Jesus Christ, True God and True Man, that you have restored sight to a man born blind, and want the salvation of all men, deign to hear the prayer of this poor sinner, and heal this poor girl. You who are the true light, and the Lord of all principles, I invoke You so that not mine but Your eternal will be fulfilled" and so saying he placed his hands over the eyes of the girl, continuing:" Lord Jesus Christ, enlighten this your creature, because You alone are the true light”. He did not even finish the prayer, which the girl immediately recovered her sight.
At this miracle, Asterius threw himself at the Saint's feet, and prayed to him for Jesus Christ, who had enlightened his daughter, to order him what he should do to save his own soul. Then Valentine replied: "If you believe from the heart, you must do what I tell you: break all the idols into a thousand pieces, fast, receive Baptism and you will be saved". After three days of intense catechism and instruction in holy doctrine, Valentine baptized Asterius with his whole family on Sunday, and called Bishop Callixtus, he had them confirmed, in all 44 people. Thirty days spent all together giving praise to the Lord, and establishing themselves more and more in the embraced faith.

Meanwhile, Claudius, wanting to know how Valentine's trial had gone, knowing that even Asterius with all his family had converted to Christianity for the miracle that took place on his daughter, immediately sent a handful of soldiers to jail them all: their stay in prison was short-lived, because martyrs soon died for faith in Christ.
There remained the priest Valentine, who would have gladly given himself to death if he had not feared a rebellion; then, he gave it into the hands of the judges, to be judged according to the law. Before dying, the Saint had to undergo the heavy chains of a dark and fetid prison, endured many and cruel beatings, and finally was condemned to be beheaded outside the city in the Via Flaminia around the year 270. A certain matron named Savinilla (or Sabinilla) collected the body of the Saint, and buried it on the second mile of the Via Flaminia (today Viale Maresciallo Pilsudski) near the city gate, which over the years was called "the door of Saint Valentine". On his tomb, a basilica was built in his honour by Pope Julius I (336-352); it was rebuilt by Pope Honorius I (625-638), enlarged by Pope Benedict II (684-685) and had a monastery annexed at the time of Pope Nicholas II (1059-1061). In the XIII century the relics of St. Valentine, most likely, were brought to the Basilica of Santa Prassede and placed in the Oratory of St. Zenone. Here the relics of Saints Zeno and Valentine were in a marble ark from which they were removed in 1699. The Roman Diary (1926) recalls the exhibition of the relics in the adjacent chapel of the Column. In the chapel dedicated to St. Nicholas of Tolentine in the Basilica of Saints Trifone and Augustine in Campo Marzio, part of the remains of a presbyter named Valentine are visible at the altar.

The meaning of the feast of St. Valentine has been perverted by the modern world. The World has replaced the love of God with the love of loved ones. Yet we know by the words of our Lord Jesus Christ that we must love our God with all our heart, soul and mind! We must be even willing to leave our parents so that we may take up the crosses that we have been given, and unless we have such predisposition, we are not worthy of Christ.
Creation is not bad by itself, it has been made for our benefit and for our happiness, yet we must understand that the foundation and principle of our existence is to love and serve God (according to our state).

Whom did St. Valentine love the most? God! He was His servant and left everything to serve Him, he was enflamed by true Christian zeal and preached the truth of the gospel, yet he was rejected because of mere human respect, let's not make ourselves lukewarm from human respect, and if we must go against the world for Christ our Lord, let's be willing to sacrifice ourselves for Him who deigned Himself to become man and sacrifice Himself for His love of humanity, He has loved us before we even existed and suffered such great torments for our salvation, let's not reject His and instead, let's embrace the crosses we have been given to console our Lord in His afflictions, let's follow the good example of St. Valentine, presbyter and martyr of Christ.
