@LamareSaint What about the Titanic?

Rosh Hashanah aka the Jewish New Year lands on a different day every year.

It’s not a fixed holiday like the Gregorian sun calendar because it’s based on the Hebrew moon calendar.

It’s only a coincidence that it aligns with 9/11 this year. Last year it was on 9/23, and next year it will be 10/2.

I hate when people prey on other people’s ignorance.

I’m open to alternate theories, but I don’t condone hatred for the sake of antisemitic racism.

@idontgiveadom It’s all so interesting. I’d love to see a whole timeline done like Candace is doing for Tyler Tobinson, only done for Erika and Tyler and whoever is significant.

[Lux Dei ✨ @fatimarosaries]

In memory of all the victims of 9/11. I offer all my prayers, works, sacrifices, and sufferings for each one of them with the intention of naming all 3,000+ of the victim souls.

🏬 Everyday Citizens inside the Towers

Rick Rescorla: A British-American Vietnam War veteran and the head of security for Morgan Stanley Dean Witter in the South Tower. Anticipating a terrorist threat years prior, Rescorla had rigorously trained all 2,700 employees through surprise evacuation drills. When the first plane hit the North Tower, he ignored building announcements telling people to stay put. He used a bullhorn to direct thousands down the stairs while singing traditional Welsh songs to keep them calm. He went back up to look for stragglers and died when the South Tower collapsed. His actions saved nearly 2,700 lives.

Welles Crowther ("The Man in the Red Bandanna"): A 24-year-old equities trader on the 104th floor of the South Tower and a former volunteer firefighter. After the plane struck, he used a red bandanna to cover his face from smoke and repeatedly went up and down the burning stairs. He carried a wounded woman on his back, led a group of dazed survivors to safety, and then went back up into the destruction to rescue more. He died when the tower fell, but survivors later identified him entirely by his signature red bandanna.

Frank De Martini and Pablo Ortiz: Port Authority employees who worked on the 88th floor of the North Tower. Armed with only a crowbar and flashlights, they moved through structural damage, unjamming doors and freeing dozens of people trapped on the upper levels before the building collapsed.

🚒 First Responders and Commanders

Orio Palmer: A Deputy Chief in the New York City Fire Department (FDNY). Renowned for his fitness, Palmer managed to repair a broken elevator to reach the 41st floor of the South Tower and then climbed 37 flights of stairs with heavy gear. He was one of the very few first responders to successfully reach the impact zone on the 78th floor, where he calmly radioed back critical information about the structural layout and began organizing medical aid for survivors just before the building collapsed.

Father Mychal Judge: The beloved chaplain of the FDNY. Upon hearing of the attacks, he rushed to the North Tower lobby to offer spiritual counseling, comfort, and prayers for the victims and firefighters heading up into the building. He was struck and killed by flying debris when the South Tower collapsed, officially recorded as Victim 0001 of the attacks.

The FDNY, NYPD, and Port Authority Police: A total of 343 firefighters, 23 NYPD officers, and 37 Port Authority officers died that day while running into the burning towers to evacuate others.

Plus an estimated 200 people fell or jumped to their deaths from the upper levels of the burning World Trade Center skyscrapers.

RIP Charlie James Kirk
October 14, 1993 – September 10, 2025 🕊️

The name Charlie James Kirk carries a striking meaning:

🔷 Charlie, from the Germanic Karl, means “free man.”
🔷 James, from the Hebrew Jacob, means “supplanter” or “one who follows.”
🔷 Kirk, from the Scots word for “church,” points directly to the Church.

Read together: “Free man. One who follows. Church.” He died wearing a shirt that said Freedom.

Charlie was assassinated for speaking the truth and searching for the truth.

He was extremely unique in that he was transparent and spontaneous in his debates. He spoke his mind as he thought it. He was not rehearsed or scripted because he embodied and lived what he believed, it was who he truly was.

The only other person who ever had this quality was Jesus Christ Himself when He debated the Pharisees.

When Charlie died his soul was set free. Charlie truly was and will forever be a free man.

“And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
— John 8:32 ✝️

Fr. Ripperger: “Most people do not have the virtue of truthfulness, that is, the willingess to follow the truth REGARDLESS of the personal cost. But there HAS to be that willingness. It doesn't matter what the personal cost is—you do the right thing.”

[Lux Dei ✨ @fatimarosaries]

@JustAdaugoijele It’s a phenomenon. Many people wake up around 3am.

My personal belief is because 3am/pm is the holiest hour of the day since that is the time Christ died.

Many saints used that hour to pray their Rosary or pray Divine Mercy Chaplet.

[BARITUS Catholic Illustration @BaritusCatholic]

We've experimented with a LOT in regards to society, life, family in the last 100 years as far as removing stigmas, normalizing and promoting the worst that a human has to offer, all in the name of some kind of "freedom" apparently.

It seems to me that every one of these has been not only a complete loss for society, but reverted us back to an ACTUAL dark ages:

- Birth control
- Abortion ("safe and rare" has turned into common and outright infanticide.)
- Sexualized popular entertainment in all of our shows, movies and music
- Pornography (not only it not being shameful, but now it's a "living" for some, and accepted)
- Promiscuity (with high counts at that)
- Divorce (and remarriage, and divorce, etc)

See how these also all go hand in hand?

So it begs the question, if it's not working, as every stat from mental "health", to population decline to lack of people getting married and having sex, to gender confusion, all of it: Did we just not try it hard enough?

Or was it something we were never supposed to touch in the first place.

You all know where I stand on that. But does society even ask this question after all of this trauma? When is the experiment over?

[Lux Dei ✨ @fatimarosaries]

@riecker @catholicbob makes an excellent point about this very topic. Please read the new points he makes using scripture to back it up.

[CatholicBob @catholicbob]

I've been getting a lot of pushback from Protestants regarding my comments on the Marian appearances. I appreciate it because it forces me to clarify my thinking. Much of the pushback is about "signs and wonders" from the devil, and attributing the healings and other miracles associated with the appearances to him. This creates more of a problem for Protestants I think. When John the Baptist heard about Jesus, he sent some of his disciples to question Jesus. The evidence Jesus offered for His identity was "the blind receiving sight, the lame walking, lepers being cleansed, the deaf hearing, the dead being raised, and the poor hearing the gospel". Now, if the devil is capable of all these things, wouldn't that make the Pharisees accusing Jesus of being in league with the devil reasonable? I would also point out that there is no Biblical precedent for miraculous healing coming from someone other than God. When we hear about the devil in Scripture (Book of Job, Book of Tobit, the Gospels), he's tormenting people, not helping them. Healing is outside of his nature. That was the point of Jesus's "house divided" response to the Pharisees. Jesus was saying that healing comes from God, not the devil. "By their fruits, you shall know them", the fruits of the Marian appearances are healings and leading people to God. Those are not the fruits of the devil.

@riecker Saint Padre Pio would pray upwards of 30 Rosaries a day!

Another very interesting anomaly is the bullet hole goes through his shirt.

Why it’s important?

The collar was sitting below on his collar bone, yet the bullet allegedly came from above on the roof, so there would be a downward trajectory of the alleged bullet.

But the shirt hole shows a potential upward trajectory.

It’s because the fear and anxiety get overwhelming. I can barely get through the anniversaries.

I’ve been grateful to focus on solving Charlie Kirk’s murder instead. 9/11 is beyond tragic in every way imaginable. I would choose to die thousands of other deaths besides that one if I had to die.

I cannot imagine what it was like, and many have heard the screams and desperation that came from those who were forced to undergo it.

Even the angels in heaven were traumatized by that day. Those poor guardian angels who lived through the nightmare.

It is too sacred to make lite of it for entertainment purposes. It’s so sad, it’s barely comprehensible.

@AdmetosL Our judicial system was created before iPhones and social media, so it will interesting to see the development of repercussions and effects it will have on how cases, and the court system itself, will be handled in the future.

@ML_Philosophy “Ignorance is a bliss” is a saying for a reason

[Lux Dei ✨ @fatimarosaries]

Such a weak and pathetic response.

Notice the tactic: no rebuttal to a single evidentiary point—just ridicule and an attack on my credibility. That’s ad hominem + appeal to ridicule + poisoning the well rhetorical tactic; when you can’t answer the argument, attack the person making it.

‘Touch grass’ isn’t a rebuttal. If the evidence is overwhelming, then address the actual questions: inconclusive ballistics, challenged DNA methodology, surveillance interpretation, and whether each piece independently establishes that Robinson fired the shot.

Unfortunately, the secular world has now appropriated hospitals. The word hospital originally met hospitality.

People used to go to convents and monasteries that were hospitals to receive hospitality free of charge, for however long they needed to stay.

It’s so ironic, because if you don’t have insurance now, there’s no hospitality for anyone in this day and age and the bill that you’re stuck with can be $100,000.

[Atheist Girl @iamAtheistGirl]

if prayer worked hospitals wouldn’t exist

@MadeYouThink12 The complexion is definitely different. Tyler is a very white person and you’re right the stairwell guy is redder complexion.
