There is so much bad information out there in the media. If we fill our souls with worldly news and entertainment, then our intellect becomes darkened (1 John 2:15-17). Instead, we need to fill our souls with Godly news and perspectives. If we only get our news from mainstream media, then we are mostly getting a worldly, non-Christian perspective. I encourage us all to check out alternative media sources. They are often imperfect, sometimes biased, and sometimes wrong (like all news media), but they are genuinely open to Christianity and tradition, and will provide, at the least, an important counterpoint to what we hear from the non-Christian mainstream media.

"One Cardinal and Four Bishops Teach Clearly that Catholics Must Refuse Vaccines Tainted by Abortion" at Catholic Family News; Bishop Schneider explains why Christians must never take abortion-tainted COVID vaccine at Lifesite News; "How to Object to an Abortion-Tainted COVID-19 Vaccine" at The National Catholic Register; "The Coming COVID-19 Vaccine" by Patrick Coffin & Dr. Theresa Deisher on patrickcoffin.media/show; an impassioned perspective on the “Great Re-Set."
