A Catholic Teenager's Views

Folks, I've just did some research on how teens are being influenced by Satan. Here's a disgusting link of a Satanic cult for teens: (Beware: If you have trauma from anything scary or sickening or just plain wrong, please don't check out this link.)

These is a showing of how the internet is used by Satan and his followers in the most OBVIOUS way!

Here's some quotes from the first link (and my attempt to counter it):
1. "Most of what you have probably heard about him from non-Satanic sources are from his enemies and people who hate him for no real reason, other than this is what they were taught to believe." Other than the facts that he's the prince of darkness, suffering, and pain, destroyer of all that good, and the one who tempted Adam and Eve to disobey God, I have no reasons to hate this demon. (To people who don't know about sarcasm, you just found it.) Oh, those reasons I got from the saints and the Bible. Yes, they're enemies of the Devil. That's because the Devil couldn't defeat them into worshiping him and was instead defeated in turn by their total faith in God.

2. "If you are in trouble or are having big problems, Satan and his Demons will help you." In case, you didn't read my article about magic, I wrote that God only allowed trouble or big problems to strengthen our faith in Him. Anything that removes us from those trials are considered to be messing around with God's will.

3. "Demons work with us through power meditations so we can access our own power and handle things for ourselves, using our minds." One note: the "power" of the demons are only given by God. So if He ever has the whim of doing so, all of the devils' powers will be nothing but dust and mere folly.

4. "We can have money, love, a good job. People who are mean to us get punished." Hey Mr. Satanic writer, if I have money, love, and a good job, will you ensure that I will have a happy life? I mean, gosh, there are so many people that fit your description but are they all happy? As quoted from Father Oscar Lukefahr, there are many rich people (with material love in their lives) that resort to pills and drugs in order to be happy. At the same time,some people that are in poorer situations seems to radiate with happiness from their faith and understanding of God. Also, define "mean". Are my parents mean to me when they scold at me about low grades? Even when deep down, I know that they're only doing so for mine own good sake? Here's an interesting scenario: two satanists walks into a bar. One is "mean" to the other. The second one calls on Satan to punish the first one. After the punishment, the first one calls on Satan again to deal with the second one, and the cycle continues. Lesson: revenge will only start a cycle of more revenge between the opposing parties, killing both.

5. "Many [Christians] have hurt and abused children because this is what their religion teaches." Whoa, what stuff are YOU drinking? Please give me specific examples, not generalizations. Also, please cite where you can back your statement that Christianity/Catholicism is in favor of "abusing" children? Also, please remember that it is said in the Bible that in order for us to enter heaven, we must have the innocence of children, placing them as symbols of purity. So why would we abuse them?

6. "To learn about Satan and his Demons, the first thing you can do is to read what is on this website. If you are living with Christians, you may not want to have any papers or books that they could find that could get you into trouble, so it may be safer to just read off the internet." Once again, refer to my previous posts about the media and its harmful influences.

7. "Don't let other people pressure you or do something just because other people do it or a bunch of people do it." So I don't have to listen to you then? I have to congratulate this guy. He rants about how good it is to be a Satanist and then slams himself by saying," Oh, by the way, don't let people pressurize you, even though that's what I am really doing. "

8. "Those of us who are with Satan are masters and not slaves." Masters of what? A weird website trying to recruit kids into something they don't know about? If they are really masters, then why are demons under an oath of obedience whenever they are commanded in the name of the Lord?

That is all for now. I hope that you have found this article enjoyable. As Catholics/Christians, we must not forget our main duty: to fight against the Devil and his minions in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord. God bless us all.

Hey viewers! Due to a template malfunction, no comments were allowed to be written. However, this is no longer a problem! Please feel free to post comments once again! God bless you all!

Hello, viewers. I am deeply sorry for not posting up anything for a while. I was busy in my school life and whenever I tried to write something for this blog, I get writer's block. This post will reflect upon what the current generation has degraded into thanks to the media and other worldly (and possibly satanic) influences.

For those who happen to live in New York City, you have probably heard about the recent exposure of sexual relationships among some of the students of Stuyvesant High School, the school that I attend. I have only learned of this tonight, having to be warned by my parents to be careful of such people and their actions. Not only do they commit underage sexual actions but also bisexual events. The first time I heard about this once again alerted me that Satan is still at large and expanding his power onto the youth. This alert made me realized that another potent weapon is used to manipulate the minds of many: sex. Some of you might comment on how slow did I finally came to this conclusion but please bear in mind that I have only learned about this impersonally in private school and assuming that adults were mainly the ones who would do such things.

Come to think of it, Satan using sex to lure people and to attack the church is nothing new. However, thanks to the media's continuous broadcasting, I feel that it is safe to say that never have such a concept advanced to such levels.

Many movies and shows nowadays include sexual themes. Every year, there are numerous productions in which sex is often portrayed as the highest climax between a man and a woman. Young viewers might see that theme as normal and okay, comparing movies with reality. This affects the very morals of theirs, making them accept works of the Devil as inspirations to their lives. The introduction of the internet only made the situation worse. Websites of pornography and sexual themes became hot searches in engines. Some of these viewers are speculated to be teenagers after becoming exposed about sex in wrong ways. Thus, their morals are crushed, bringing them to believe that sex, as long as it is agreed upon, is just a mere pasttime.

I am not denouncing sex but rather how Satan uses people to remove the holiness of that sacred ritual. "And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh" (Genesis 2:23-24). Sex is something that is to be honored between a couple: the unification of flesh and the process to bring new life onto this planet.

Knowing this fact only tells me more about the abominations that Satan is causing and that we must not give in and let the media and mundane temptations govern our lives. I, personally, am strengthened to carry on God's will and strive for the goal that one day, people will realize their wrongdoings and that the world will bring about a better future for coming generations. That is all for now!

Hey, viewers! Thanks for all the comments on my previous blog; I will keep them at heart. On Saturday, Arthur and I were just hanging out when he suddenly said, "Hey, Andrew, why not post about teenagers in your blog? It'll be interesting." Sure enough, today's post will be based upon the current morals and views of the teenage generation.

As, I have stressed before, the media is increasingly becoming a major influence in everyone's lives through the television, internet, movies, radio, and books. People sheerly use these means of media as entertainment. However, thanks to the freedom of the press, a dark and immoral scenario entered the scene. The instruments that were only used for entertainment are now used for the spreading of violence, pornography, satanic messages, use of drugs, and other horrifying issues. The older generations are better at coping with this situation because they have actually seen the world and know of its secret horrors. However, the current teenagers are born into this fast-paced life where media determines even what people should wear. Therefore, most teenagers can not see the consequences of the many things that the media shows like pornography. Thus they will tend to argue over controversial issues like abortion and homosexuality according to where the popular majority of the media stands, being ignorant of the inner values of the truth.

I believe that one of the major reasons for many teenager's ignorance is their very own growth throughout the years. As they grow older, the adults that they once revered as smart and wise prove to be limited in some areas. Thus, the teenagers feel that they are smarter and can do better than the adults. Furthermore, these teenagers became rash in their thoughts and lose sight of the greater picture. As a teenager, I am still going through this too. Sometimes, I was extremely annoyed when my parents or my close adult friends, even Arthur, lecture me about what is right and wrong in this world. I naturally assumed that being myself, I know what is best for me.

In addition, I think that some adults are to be blamed also for the ignorance of the new generation. The media problem did not happen overnight. It took years and years for it to reach such a state. The older generations should have been clearly aware of the change since they were clearly present during that time. However, instead of setting an example for the younger ones, they decided to actually follow the media along and continue their bad and immoral habits.

Even in my school, Stuyvesant High School, there are simplified versions of how ignorant teenagers are. There are students gambling in the corners, most of which are cutting classes. When asked why, they simply said that they didn't feel like it. In addition, some use cigarettes and drugs to ease their stress in school. It also saddens me greatly that because many of the students there are skilled in science, they deny the divine existence of God merely because they say that He is just an illusion of the human mind.

I am sure that this topic is far from over. I will continue to voice my opinion about this generation's corruption in this blog.

Welcome back, viewers. I am sure that you all noticed from the cartoon above that the person speaking is none other than the famous fantasy character, Harry Potter. There are currently more than 103 million copies of the books in just America (as cited from the website of Scholastic).

As I have mentioned yesterday, one of the fairly new but dark themes that are introduced in the media today is sorcery, or better known as Magic. Thanks to Harry Potter, magic now has a much greater interest from the population. Now, I am not trying to denounce J.K. Rowling about her writing ideas. Her books allow children to explore a whole new different world with their imagination while reading, instead of playing video games. However, she has undoubtedly chose a topic which has dangers and consequences that she is clearly ignorant about.

Magic is an "art" that manipulates unnatural powers that humans should not ever be meddling with. Every bit of it is a work of the Devil. Now, friends, you are probably thinking in your head: "What about WHITE magic, dumbass? Black Magic is evil but what about magic that heals? Explain that!" Well, I have a question for you: Would God work against Hiself? He lets everything happen for a reason, even disease and pain. They are there to test our faith in Him. They are neccessary trials that must be undertaken so that we can grow and truly understand His glorious plans. Only Satan and his devils will meddle in His plans. Now, aren't these white magicians meddling with God's will when they are promising relief from sufferings and difficulties,tests that are most certainly placed by God? Therefore, we can associate all forms of magic with Satan.

This issue wouldn't have been such a big problem if only the media hadn't started to expand the idea that magic is good and if everyone knew "white" magic, the world will be so much a better place. Thanks to J.K. Rowling and various other authors, the younger generations are seeing magic in a good, but false, light. Children are eager to learn. Nowadays, their eagerness can be filled by wondering and researching topics that are presented on the internet, books, and television. They are still young and can not comprehend the evils and dangers that may lie under that golden suface. I am not saying to abolish television, books, and the internet. What i'm saying is that the older generations should always help the newer ones evaluate of what is dangerous and evil and what is not.

Welcome to my humble blog, viewers. I sincerely hope that all of you will enjoy your stay here. Well, I AM supposed to say that since its wrong to will any harm to anyone. It's only annoying when its coming from the Flight Attendants. I mean, they always place on that smile and have that look which really means: look, I made a bad career move when I got out of high school and now I'm a waiter at a bad restaurant a couple miles from the ground. And I still have to serve people like you. Anyways, back to my introduction.

As you can see from my blog title, I am a catholic teenager. However, I strive to be different from the current catholic teenagers that I know of. Nowadays, most teenagers are really into a more materialistic world and the media. This was not a sudden change. Over the generations, people started to rely more and more on the media during their daily lives. At first, the media via television and internet only served as a spreading of ideas but over the past few years, the media had become a major influence on people's daily lives. And then the issues of sex, money, and violence kicked in. The next generation was born into the time period of such changes and became too influenced by the media. This only gets worse as time progresses. Newer, darker themes are presented in the media such as satanic messages, magic, and gothic views.

That is all for now!
