The LGBTQ lobby (or Lavender Mafia) both in the State and the Church tries to convince us that temptations to unnatural sexual acts and lifestyles are innate and normal tendencies that should be embraced not overcome. Turning truth on its head they argue that resisting such unnatural inclinations is unnatural and harmful. Their work over the past several decades has led to the social and legal acceptance of same sex "marriages" in the State and the toleration and even promotion of this intrinsic evil within the Church. Brian McCall speaks with Kim Zember, author of Restless Heart: My Struggle with Life and Sexuality, about her personal journey to overcome this lie. She shares how, notwithstanding her Catholic upbringing, she gave way to this temptation that was given to her. Sadly she shares how a Catholic priest encouraged this surrender to temptation rather than resistance. Thanks be to God her restless heart eventually found its way back to Catholic truth. The peace that she has found by converting from her former life--that was characterized by unhappiness and disturbance--is evident even in this short conversation. Her story is a sign of contradiction and a stumbling block to the LGBTQ lobby. Due to the subject matter of this interview it is not appropriate for younger audiences. Her book can be found here https://www.sophiainstitute.com/products/item/restless-heart

As discussed in prior Weekly News Roundups, one of the aspects of the Great Reset of the Globalist Elites is to transform human nature through technological enhancements of the human body. In this interview Father Giordano explains how this movement of Transhumanism contradicts the Catholic teaching on creation and human nature. Father's classical education in Thomistic philosophy and theology clearly enables him to draw the important distinctions between true scientific progress and this evil rebellion against God.
