In June of 2020 a Catholic priest in Del Rio , TX , Fr .
Clay Hunt , III , was stripped of his priestly faculties for his combat against the LGBT agenda in his state .
He was active in preaching to prisoners in criminal justice ministry in the archdiocese of San Antonio , and according to the San Antonio Family Association : “ Fr .

There is an attempt by certain people in the hierarchy of the archdiocese of San Antonio who seem set to remove him [ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ goes on to say : Hunt is in Del Rio , TX , which is under Bexar County and which has a sodomite mayor , Bruno Lozano .
When the commissioners of Bexar County ( which Del Rio is a part of ) , recognized June 29th , 2019 , as “ Pride Bigger than Texas Day ” , Fr .
Hunt declared : When Fr .

According to KWMC 1490 , Lozano “ called police to remove Father Clay Hunt from city hall , a meeting in which Clay was invited by Bruno.

When @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Yarbrough , I found a 2002 report written in the San Antonio Express which stated : Imagine , a man kissing another man on the lips as “ common.

By Theodore Shoebat
In June of 2020 a Catholic priest in Del Rio, TX, Fr. Clay Hunt, III, was stripped of his priestly faculties for his combat against the LGBT agenda in his state. He was active in preaching to prisoners in criminal justice ministry in the archdiocese of San Antonio, and according to the San Antonio Family Association: “Fr. Clay has been and is being targeted and attacked. There is an attempt by certain people in the hierarchy of the archdiocese of San Antonio who seem set to remove him [from] the priesthood.” The post goes on to say:
“His faculties to celebrate Holy Mass in public have been removed again as they had been in 2018 when this persecution of him began openly … Fr. Clay’s ability to remain a priest is hanging in the balance. He needs good canon law legal defense.”
Hunt is in Del Rio, TX, which is under Bexar County and which has a sodomite mayor, Bruno Lozano. When the commissioners of Bexar County (which Del Rio is a part of), recognized June 29th, 2019, as “Pride Bigger than Texas Day”, Fr. Hunt declared:
“You’re in contradiction to the Lord, and the Lord was the one who said, ‘If you are opposed to my precepts and decrees, there is no truth within you and I do not know you,’ … So, the five of you are very responsible to God for that.”
When Fr. Hunt went to city city hall in June of 2018 to meet with Lozano, the mayor had the police remove the priest from the building. In the confrontation the priest asked Lozano whether or not he believed in God, upon which time he was asked to leave. According to KWMC 1490, Lozano “called police to remove Father Clay Hunt from city hall, a meeting in which Clay was invited by Bruno.” Fr. Hunt, the next day, posted up a video in which he stated that “never would I be the one to tell them that these kinds of things [homosexual acts] are okay because in fact, they’re obviously against God,” he added. “We know that through the revelation of God. He was the one who revealed those things to us.” The Diocese of San Antonio, hating the controversy, removed Fr. Hunt from his parish, St. Joseph in Del Rio, and shifted him to criminal justice ministry. When a priest is stripped of his faculties, its usually because of sexual misconduct. But, according to the San Antonio Family Association,
“There is no allegation of sexual misconduct … There seems to be allegations of obedience which priests do take a vow of [technically, diocesan priests do not take vows, religious do; diocesan priests promise obedience and respect to the bishop and his successors]. … There seems to be allegations against Fr. Clay to include his speaking candidly about life, marriage and family which includes professing the truth about the harmful choices to individuals, including but not limited to abortion and homosexuality”
This persecution of the priests of God by the people who are suppose to be the shepherds goes exactly in line with what St. Paul warned against when he wrote of the evils of homosexuals and those who “have pleasure in them that do them.” (Romans 1:32) The ecclesiastical authorities who persecute their own ministers for their combat against Sodom are really ambassadors of Sodom who want to (incrementally) advance the altar of Sodom and have it replace the altar of God. But, none of this is surprising when the Pope himself is accepting of sodomite unions.
Its official, for the first time in Catholic history, a pope has come out in support of homosexual “civil unions” which is really just secular marriage under a state. During an interview for a documentary which premiered at the Rome Film Festival, Francis stated:
“Homosexual people have the right to be in a family. They are children of God… You can’t kick someone out of a family, nor make their life miserable for this. What we have to have is a civil union law; that way they are legally covered.”
Of course, the priests who are acolytes of Sodom are praising Pope Francis for this, with priests of Sodom like Fr. James Martin saying: “The pope’s speaking positively about civil unions also sends a strong message to places where the church has opposed such laws”. This is coming from a priest who for years has been pushing for the idea of ‘building bridges’ between the Church and Sodom. Well, its obvious that that bridge has been built… and that it has been crossed. Of course, there are Catholic officials who are opposing this. Bishop Thomas Tobin of Providence, Rhode Island stated: “The pope’s statement clearly contradicts what has been the long-standing teaching of the church about same-sex unions … The church cannot support the acceptance of objectively immoral relationships.” And Ed Mechmann, director of public policy at the Archdiocese of New York, affirmed in a blog post that the pope had simply “made a serious mistake.”
The Church has been utterly conquered by Sodom, and looking at the Second Jerusalem, I cannot help but reference St. John when he spoke of Sodom and Egypt when referring to that City on a Hill. Rome has become Egypt; for it is filled with the evils of pagandom; Sodom, for it is filled with the ways of that abysmal metropolis which was cut asunder by fire from Heaven. Will it take fire from heaven for the world to finally see that darkness they are embracing? Or perhaps another scourge will have to be used, a human scourge of armies of other nations more warlike than most, to invade Rome and bring about a horrific fury of insatiable rage to that city, such as when German mercenaries invaded Rome in 1527. What will it take? Only time will tell. But what we can tell are the fumes from the corrupt incense burning from the warped altars of Sodom’s temples, with people calling themselves Catholic when they are in reality members of the church of Satan.
Many traditional Catholics will defend the Church, while at the same time not realizing, (or being too afraid to admit) that the Vatican, and the whole of the Catholic apparatus, has become a homosexual hornets nests. I myself have had experience with the homosexual infiltrators in the Catholic Church, and did two videos recounting my experiences:
While we were doing some work in Texas we were told of a man named Msgr. Michael Yarbrough (also known as Michael Yarborough), of Holy Trinity Catholic Church, and how he is a deviant priest who forcefully kissed a young man named Hector Escalante on the lips, and how he was supporting a pro homosexual group called Call to Action. Here is a photo of Msgr. Michael Yarbrough:
Well, we decided that we were going to bait Msgr. Michael Yarbrough. I visited him in a confessional booth where I told him my age and apparently it registered an interest and he asked me if I wanted to come and hang out with him. He fell for the bait. I found it very odd that a priest of his high position, with a very busy schedule, would all of a sudden want to spend time with me.
I accepted his offer, and gave him a call, and asked him if we would meet at a book store. He said that he preferred that we meet in his office. I found this quite disturbing because it was in his office where he kissed Hector Escalante. When I did research on Msgr. Michael Yarbrough, I found a 2002 report written in the San Antonio Express which stated:
Hector Escalante complained that Monsignor Michael Yarbrough kissed him on the lips and groped him in his office in 1998 when Escalante was 27, on his last day on the job as a St. Matthew’s Parish employee. Yarbrough admitted kissing him but said Escalante misunderstood the gesture, which the priest said was common among men in his family. He denied groping Escalante.
Imagine, a man kissing another man on the lips as “common.” Well, since Pope Francis now vocally supports sodomite “civil unions” I guess the forces of Sodom are “common” within the ecclesiastical system.
For years we have seen how the Vatican covers up for sexual predators and deviants, heretics and debased theologians. We even investigated Fr. Robert L. Kincl, who was appointed by the Pope and had befriended us as a fan of Shoebat.com acting as conservative. In a private conversation with me, Kincl actually stated that he believes that homosexual fondling is permissible. Having been shocked at his remarks, I told Kincl:
How can you, as a priest, be so liberal toward such a sick evil as two men fondling each other, or as two men having a “relationship” just as long as they are not going with other men. It is evil and it is reprobate.
I also told him:
It is not tolerable for you, as both a priest and a canon law judge, to be permissive to somebody having a homosexual relationship just as long as they are not being promiscuous with other men. It is deplorable, and in the words of St. Paul, “worthy of death” (Romans 1:32).
Kincl defended his position and responded with a rejection of the Old Testament and a twisting of St. Paul’s condemnation of homosexuality in Romans, stating
We do not follow the Hebrew Scriptures. We follow Jesus Christ who never mentioned gay relationships. When St. Paul mentioned such a relationship he was referring to the promiscuousness of the Romans using sodomy.
Shoebat.com decided to investigate Kincl and found that he has a dark past. In 1993, Kincl worked as a Commander in charge of clergy at the U.S. Navy, and while he was in the service he defended another chaplain confirmed to be guilty of child molestation, named Robert Hrdlicka.
The investigation revealed that Robert L. Kincl had even written the authorities, not to charge the pedophile who molested the young boys, but urged them to send him back to serve as a chaplain:
Catholic chaplain Lt. Robert Hrdlicka pleaded guilty to molesting boys in 1993. Before his sentencing, six other Catholic Navy chaplains and the church’s archbishop for the military services urged authorities to send Lt. Hrdlicka to a church-run treatment center. “It is my fervent hope and prayer that he will be able to return to the active ministry as soon as possible,” wrote then-Cmdr. Robert L. Kincl. Instead, Lt. Hrdlicka went to prison.
We reported Kincl to the ecclesiastical authorities in the Diocese of Austin. We spoke with Deacon Ron Walker and Vicar General Daniel Garcia, but they did nothing to have Robert L. Kincl punished.
Yet, this priest, against whom no allegation of sexual misconduct has been made, is being stripped of his faculties, while other priests appeal to Sodom.

New Science Paper Proposes AI-Based Formula To Pre-Identify Twitter Users Who Post “Unreliable” Information

“ Thought crime ” or “ precrime ” is a theme commonly referenced in science fiction novels .
It is the idea that computers and supertechnology in a surveillance state setup can be used to predict who will commit a crime and who will not , and with the purpose not of stopping actual crime , but with preventing anybody from expressing any disagreement with the way the system is being operated , allowing those in charge to commit crimes with complete freedom and imprisoning or destroying the rest of the public .
Unfortunately , there has been a trend @ @ @ @ @ @ @ across the world .
I do not mean just in China with the ‘ social credit ’ system , but in the US with aggressive policing and the use of cameras and other AI-type programs to attempt to predict crime before it happens .

Social media has become a popular source for online news consumption with millions of users worldwide .

Automatically identifying social media users that are likely to propagate posts from handles of unreliable news sources sometime in the future is of utmost importance for early detection and prevention @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and has yet to be explored .
To that end , we present a novel task for predicting whether a user will repost content from Twitter handles of unreliable news sources by leveraging linguistic information from the user ’ s own posts .
We develop a new dataset of approximately 6.2K Twitter users mapped into two categories : ( 1 ) those that have reposted content from unreliable news sources ; and ( 2 ) those that repost content only from reliable sources .
For our task , we evaluate a battery of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ state-of-the-art neural models , achieving up to 79.7 macro F1 .
In addition , our linguistic feature analysis uncovers differences in language use and style between the two user categories .

shoebat--2020-12-22--The COVID Legal Disenfranchisement Begins

I have always tried to provide two warnings about COVID .
The first is the obvious- to be careful because the disease really is something , and it really can make you very sick , and that it is not a joke .
The second is that COVID is being used for the even deadlier purpose , separate from the medical aspect , to justify broad social changes that will long outlive the virus itself .
Both are serious .
For this purpose , I want to focus on the latter , as laws are being passed and court or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ allow for the increasing social disenfranchisement of people who refuse to take a COVID vaccine .
In Brazil , as I reported , social benefits ( welfare , food stamps , etc . )
can be taken away and people can be restricted in their movement if they do not take a vaccine .
In the US , it recently came out that employers can bar employees from returning to work if they do not get a vaccine .
Now according to the Malay Mail , France is seeking to ban people from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ vaccine .
People who fail to get a Covid-19 vaccination could be banned from using public transport in France , according to a draft law sparking angry protests from opposition politicians today .
Prime Minister Jean Castex yesterday got his Cabinet ’ s backing for a bill that is designed to provide a legal framework for dealing with health crises , including the coronavirus pandemic .
According to the text , which will now be submitted to parliament , a negative Covid test or proof of a “ preventative treatment , including the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ required for people to be granted “ access to transport or to some locations , as well as certain activities ” .
According to opinion polls , 55 per cent of French people say they will not get a Covid shot , one of the highest rates in the European Union .
( source ) I am not “ anti-vaccine ” .
I do want to be aware of what I am putting into my body , what it is made of , and what the health effects are before I do it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ food products that I will not eat , such as most food imported from China , because of known contamination in the food , whether it be “ fake food ” to food being raised in literal sewers with human feces , to contamination with industrial chemicals .
It is not that I am “ anti-Chinese ” , because I will eat food from anywhere else in Asia , including Taiwan , but that I care about my health , I know that while certainly not all Chinese-imported food products are bad , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I need to be aware of what I do before I choose to consume something .
The same is with this COVID vaccine .
I am not a vaccine expert nor will ever claim to be , but simple observation and questions make one necessarily be concerned about it .
For example , why the rush to vaccinate ?
The virus is not good , but there are already many questions about the statistics being used to track it and the deaths attributed to it .
It is not like the Spanish Flu @ @ @ @ @ @ @ panic to vaccinate ?
Likewise , what is in this vaccine , and what are the health effects ?
There are already questionable ingredients such as aborted fetal cell parts , and with that , not a few people who have become extremely ill from taking the vaccine , and yet with not explanation really as to why this happened from what I have seen .
Why for example was this vaccine found months ago , in a patent and tied to questionable financial and electronics programming as well as nanotechnology ( more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?
No one has yet to explain that even though one can find this information publicly .
Why are leaders such as Putin in Russia ordering all citizens to get the vaccine yet he will not take it , yet if a citizen does not take it , there seem to be concerted legal steps being implemented to force the average man to get a vaccine ?

You heard me say it at Shoebat.com. You saw me emphasize it over and over at the end of so many pieces. You may have been sick of hearing about it, but I kept telling you because there were too many trends suggesting that it was going to happen. Sure enough, now it is happening.
Is it the end of the world? In the macro-sense no, but for many people it may feel that way, as COVID has either caused them to become unemployed or lose income. As a result, a recent study found that in 2021, 62% of Americans are looking to get a second job to help pay bills.
Seven in ten say their financial priorities have changed from the start of 2020 to now. For 63 percent, this year has permanently changed their financial priorities. 2020 financial disaster More than six in 10 Americans (65%) are depending on 2021 to recover financially from the setbacks they’ve experienced during the pandemic. For nearly four in 10 (37%), that includes making serious cutbacks. Three in four respondents (74%) have had to shift their financial priorities this year because of emergency or medical expenses. Half say putting more money aside has gained new importance due to their experiences in 2020. Almost as many (48%) admit that saving for an emergency fund was a new priority this year as well. Commissioned by World Finance, the survey finds, on average, Americans need a minimum of $10,726 in savings in order to feel financially comfortable. A long time until financial recovery
Nearly two in three people (63%) believe it will take longer than a year to reach just one of their financial goals. On average, people think it will nearly be 2024 before all their goals are met. Among employed respondents (59% in total), seven in 10 say they need a raise at their job in order to make ends meet. Sixty-two percent plan on taking on a second job in 2021 to meet their financial goals next year. For 60 percent of America, rebuilding their savings tops the list of financial resolutions to accomplish in 2021. That’s closely followed by becoming debt-free (56%), improving their credit score (53%), and starting that emergency fund (51%). More than half of the poll (55%) say they need advice on how to budget properly. Seventy-four percent also hope to improve their financial literacy next year. Three in ten plan to set up automatic savings to make their money dreams come true. At the moment, only 15 percent say they have an excellent knowledge of finances. Just over 40 percent say their knowledge is good, but not the best. Close to two-thirds of all respondents (63%) regret not taking their finances more seriously sooner. (source)

The one I am referring to is where I constantly emphasized that if you can, work as many hours as possible, save your resources, and try to get a second job, in whatever arrangement suits your situation. I said this because the trends indicated that future economic problems were going to get a LOT worse, and this would be one of the best ways to hold off problems and then to surmount them.
It is now happening. Most Americans- five out of eight -are looking for extra work.
That is how serious this economic crisis is, and it is going to get worse.
I also want to be explicitly clear, I am not happy that I am right. I am rather sad, because being “right” here means the suffering of many. To the contrary, I write what I do because I want your good and that for all. However, in order to do that, often it means discussing difficult, uncomfortable, or hard things.
If you have not done so already, please consider looking for work starting NOW, or getting as many extra hours as you can. The problem is not the virus. It is the fallout from the virus that is impacting so many people, and will have ongoing economic consequences that likely will culminate in significant economic and political destabilization, if not as a direct effect, then as a catalyst noted in history books that cause later actions to happen just as the 1918 Spanish Flu pandemic was similarly connected to the rise of extreme global politics that gave way to the Second World War.

Vidya championships, “sport” competitions, and marketing is going to explode. This is the reason why they have become, in the words of many Millennial and Zoomer gamers, “pozzed”, or filled with political propaganda mostly of a left-wing nature and why there have been so many strange ‘conflicts’ around them. Vidya has been identified and seems to be turning actively into the next ‘sport’ venture of the 21st century.
Unless there is a return to an emphasis on physical skill- as with one’s body -right now the growth in vidya will likely not be limited to just COVID-related conditions, but something the continues as with “popular sports” was for Boomers, the main source of ‘entertainment’ for many Millennials, Zoomers, and possibly the next generation.
