In recent years, there has been a lot of talk about Globalism and the Globalists, and their system of control, which is popularly called, “the Matrix”.

And for more than a thousand years, in the Catholic Church, our Saints, Popes and Bishops have spoken about demonic possession, as one of the most degraded and dangerous spiritual afflictions possible.

The Saints say that there is not a vast different between being content to live in mortal sins and being in the possession of Satan. The former is constituted when a man freely and resolutely decides to embrace grave immorality or perversity and make it his way of life. The latter is the end result of choosing never to disagree or act contrary to the wishes of that ancient and chief Enemy of God.

And, let me be clear: in this world, one can certainly live in the worst of sins without being possessed by Lucifer or one or more of his crew. And one can live, committing mortal sins of only one specific kind of immorality, without a dedication to all forms of depravity.

In Sacred Scripture and in the homilies and writings of the Saints we even group such sinners according to their principle vice: drunkards, adulterers, the avaricious, the jealous, the impure, the wanton, homicides and murderers, liars and fraudsters, criminals and sexual perverts.

The mere fact that they dedicate themselves to a certain sin, does not mean that in other areas they might be aligned with honorable, honest and otherwise outstanding moral virtue, though not out a supernatural motivation, because they never forsake their principal sin or vice.

Hardened conviction to a particular sin even has a parallel in modern psychology, which calls such persons sociopaths: individuals who do not believe that one specific form of morality is obligatory for them, even though they might embrace the rest of the moral law and be otherwise highly ethical persons.

The Matrix, however, is not a preternatural or demonic system of control, of itself. It is merely a coordinated world-wide, trans-generational effort to govern the masses with elaborately constructed lies and systems of information manipulation. It’s a human artifact produced by fallen human motives, where the will to power and consequently to control is placed above all other criteria of truth, goodness, and justice.

However, from the individual’s point of view, what differences are there between being plugged into the Globalist Matrix and being possessed by a demon?

Both individuals only follow the commands of the wicked, only believe the voices of the wicked, never rebel against the wicked, and are totally psychologically in the power of the wicked. Even when they know that what is being asked of them is evil or wrong, or even when they recognize that what they are being told about the past, present or future, is improbably true or obviously false.

In the end — no matter what –they only do what the wicked tell them: and it is as if they do not have eyes or ears, feet or hands for anything else.

Our Lord Jesus Christ connected both of these groups, those who live in the Matrix and those who belong to Satan, when He complained bitterly about those who see miracles and do not believe, and called them, the children of Satan.

HOW THIS IS ALL PLAYING OUT IN THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IN RECENT YEARS

Today in the summer of 2025, and indeed since March of 2013, in the Catholic Church there have been obvious and grave juridical problems at the very summit of the visible hierarchy of the Church at the Vatican.  Those of us who have, by fidelity to the truth and consistent searching for the truth, have unplugged ourselves from the Big Lies, know how many hard decisions we had to make to recognize we were being lied to, and to recognize that the liars pushing these lies are addicted to mendacity for reasons much more grave than merely ignorance.

If we feel that the truth cannot win out, or that our actions in fidelity to the truth will have no effect, we need to recognize that even this sentiment of ours is a visible sign that we are still under the influence of the Matrix, despite our verbal protestations to the contrary, because the chief malign influence of the Globalist Matrix is to enervate the action of the masses. It does not matter so much to the Globalists that the people know they are being lied to: what matters most is that they don’t do anything effective against the lies.

The same thing goes on in the Church. Which is why the Mafia of St. Gallen has so many assets which are deployed to spread disinformation, misinformation or malinformation about themselves or against their enemies. The Vatican under their control calls this “message diffusions”, and in the recent publicized Vatican budget we even know what it cost them last year, 7.6 million euro.

REAL CHRISTIANITY

Salvation is not possible if we live in sin and embrace sin. Salvation is not possible in such a life, because salvation means, first of all, passing from the kingdom of Satan to the Kingdom of God. This is not just a passage in which our lips participate. It requires rejecting all sin, all vice, all dishonesty.

It begins with Faith in God, which requires not only that we stop listening to the voices of those under the power of Satan, even when at times they speak the truth — as Christ taught us, when he forbade the demons to give testimony about Himself — but that we repent of living in sin and start listening to God and obeying His commandments.

This passage from death to life also requires in our age that we unplug from the Matrix and stop acting as if their lies are true. It requires rejecting being inert and passive to what the Enemies of Christ are doing in this world, and start telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. And in practice, it requires most of all, that we stop trusting the voices of the Matrix are telling us the truth, and put all their claims under examination.

Catholics who refuse to do this, are not living their faith in Christ, and are not credible witnesses of what it means to be a Catholic. But even less credible witnesses are those whose business model or job requires a paycheck from Globalists, such as are all the main stream accepted Catholic journalists who are addicted to living in the Big Lies of our age.

BIRDS OF A FEATHER FLOCK TOGETHER

In the last week, we have seen one of these morally incompetent men praised as a living martyr and saint simply because of a disagreement among those who live in the Matrix. His “persecutors” wanted him to stop exposing the system of control, even though he was much more violent against true Catholics when they attempted to unplug from the Matrix, than he ever was about the voices of the Matrix. I was amazed how unified these voices were: even those who called each other “crazy”, “looney”, “nutty”, put away all their differences and joined in the laud-fest.*

Don’t be fooled. Your emotions and ignorance were being played by all the actors who love to be plugged into the Matrix. By their unanimity in the propaganda last week, I hope you can begin to see who are the voices of the Matrix, and why it is not simply ignorance which causes them to refuse to speak the whole truth and nothing but the truth. — By constantly telling you half-truths and ignoring the Big Lies, they keep you plugged into the Matrix in return for your support. And that is a form of demonic possession: the ownership and control of your heart, mind and soul, under the power of lies.
