Mental Health



During this week I heard  the result of a study on mental health announced on the news.
They said that people that attend mass regularly have better mental health than people that do not.

This is not surprising.

The underlying causes of  most mental health problems are addressed by the teachings of the
Catholic Church.

We are told what to do about ALL manifestations of

Fear (Let go of all fear, Trust in me, Jesus said)

Guilt ( Confesse your guilt, and you will be pardoned)

Shame ( Jesus took our shame on Him)


Arrogance (Practice humility, Our Lady is our teacher)

Jealousy (Practice gratitude, jealousy is like a cancer)

Anger ( practice self control)

Bitterness (forgive others, and you yourself will also be forgiven for the wrong you have done)

etc.......

And what you end up with is an immense HOPE where depression and darkness cannot survive.

Yesterday there was yet another 2 mass shootings in America, in one of them the gunman even shot his own sister.
In response the people responsible for Law and Order over there are not so much talking about
white nationalism, as they are about the underlying real issue of mental health.

"The problem of mental illness is on the increase" they say.

This is not a mystery; it is the effect of living in a deeply sick and schizophrenic world.

In America for example Michelle Obama is highly respected and even revered as a role model for women, yet she is a fierce champion, crusader, promoter and protagonist for abortion.

Every human being knows in his heart that it is wrong to kill.
There are no grey areas; it is wrong.
To even put forward the notion that the killing of living babies in the womb is "health care" is sick, twisted and schizophrenic.
Now that the Irish people supported it by voting it into legislation also in Ireland,
(Ireland was the last bastion of human decency), means that it is all over.

Definition of  schizophrenia:

Long-term mental disorder of a type involving a breakdown in the relation between thought, emotion, and behavior, leading to faulty perception, inappropriate actions and feelings, withdrawal from reality and personal relationships into fantasy and delusion, and a sense of mental fragmentation.

Since innocent, living, feeling, babies  are being slaughtered legally in the hundreds of thousands every day in slaugherhouses called hospitals, I can't see how these mass shooting are any worse.
In fact, it is in line with it.
