Our Lord painted a strong picture about the corruption of the Pharisees, and He wasn't afraid to let the people of the time know about it, despite some of them not thinking well of Him. I think we would have been shocked because He criticized these highly respected leaders. Today, we know the errors of the Conciliar Church and why we don't want a deal. We know our Faith, and want our priests to continue to teach it to us without compromise.

Then Jesus spoke to the multitudes and to his disciples, [2] Saying: The scribes and the Pharisees have sitten on the chair of Moses. [3] All things therefore whatsoever they shall say to you, observe and do: but according to their works do ye not; for they say, and do not. [4] For they bind heavy and insupportable burdens, and lay them on men's shoulders; but with a finger of their own they will not move them. [5] And all their works they do for to be seen of men. For they make their phylacteries broad, and enlarge their fringes.
And whosoever shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth in it: [22] And he that sweareth by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon. [23] Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you tithe mint, and anise, and cuмmin, and have left the weightier things of the law; judgment, and mercy, and faith. These things you ought to have done, and not to leave those undone. [24] Blind guides, who strain out a gnat, and swallow a camel. [25] Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you make clean the outside of the cup and of the dish, but within you are full of rapine and uncleanness.
[26] Thou blind Pharisee, first make clean the inside of the cup and of the dish, that the outside may become clean. [27] Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you are like to whited sepulchres, which outwardly appear to men beautiful, but within are full of dead men's bones, and of all filthiness. [28] So you also outwardly indeed appear to men just; but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. [29] Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; that build the sepulchres of the prophets, and adorn the monuments of the just, [30] And say: If we had been in the days of our Fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
Also, below are some of the fruits from using the truth when trying to get people to understand why something is wrong. I'm sure it is insensitive to those supporting the issue, but better to be forewarned in this lifetime then wait till the next.
Pro-Life College Students Save Three Babies From Abortion, Lifenews.com
The first child was saved by our Moorpark SFL group at Moorpark College. They were using SFLA posters and fliers from our “events in a box” campaign to educate and engage their campus.
To hear that our pro-life student campus groups are saving lives through personal interaction, our materials, our “Pregnant on Campus” initiative, billboards and our sidewalk chalking efforts means the world to me. With all of the recent negative news coming from the current administration via mandates and ultimatums, it is refreshing to hear from our grassroots students that lives are being saved and hearts and minds are being changed.
Thanks so much to our students for their hard work and dedication, are staff with coming up with creative materials and action items and of course our supporters thoughts, prayers and support. This generation will see abortion abolished in our lifetimes!
