If I were the Devil- Paul Harvey | 1965 Warning

-


If I were the Devil- Paul Harvey ðŸ”—🔗

In 1965 radio commentator and columnist Paul Harvey wrote an essay that some of you will remember., It’s called “If I was the Devil,” and it suggested that America’s problems in the mid-60’s could be traced back to people not working hard, being dishonest, getting divorced, getting high, getting abortions, and getting out of church. As a result, he concluded, the devil must be having a field day in America watching it happen.

Harvey’s analysis of a changing America was aimed more at our outward behaviors than the social and cultural currents that were driving people in those directions, but, in its simplicity, it became wildly popular, and is Harvey’s most enduring legacy.

Almost 60 years later, the prophecy is mostly true.A concerted plan by the devil is destroying the Church, social norms, family, & marriage. 


The 3 Secrets of Fatima 
Many people may have heard of the secrets of Fatima. There are three of these so-called secrets which were parts of the message Mary revealed to the shepherd children that were not immediately made public. This is especially true with the third secret of Fatima, which Lucia only revealed when directly ordered to do so by her bishop in an act of holy obedience. The three secrets of Fatima are:

A vision of the souls in Hell.
Prediction of the end of WWI and a prediction of the beginning of WWII as well as a request to consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. 
A vision of the Pope, along with other bishops, priests, religious and lay people, being killed by soldiers.

This is not a fictional tale, nor a little bit of reality and then embellished for a TV movie, no it's about two men , actually three men, of different economic backgrounds, races, ethnicity, and how they didn't see differences  but commonality. The commonality was they were all football men, Chicago Bears, one a coach/owner, the other two players. They had a common goal, win football games for the Chicago Bears. Actually, maybe win a few games for the Bears, because in the late 1960's the Bears weren't a very good team. Gale Sayers was one of the best running backs to ever play in the NFL, Brian Piccolo was second string all the way. He had the heart and determination better than not only of most in the NFL, but better than 99% of the citizens in the United States. Nothing stopped that guy except cancer. Brian Piccolo was pre Jimmy V, there was no ESPN in his time, But, his message, Gale's message, George Halas's message was eloquently told in the TV movie, ...

4th of July , Pathmark, Cross Bronx Expressway, AJ SCHMITT AND SONS.

Many of you have heard of my infamous first solo driving of one of our market trucks on the road. ( Ref :  AUGUST 1974    But , with the 4th of July holiday weekend, my mind remembers the 4th of July weekend, 1976. Pathmark supermarkets had given AJ SCHMITT and SONS a large vegetable order for the holiday weekend.  July 2, 1976 was a Friday, and thus we could fulfill that order. Hunts Point Terminal Produce was not operational on early Saturdays or Sundays mornings. We never made trips to HPTP on Fridays or Saturdays. Thus, both trucks could be used to deliver the huge order to Pathmark warehouse, 60 miles away in Carteret NJ. And all farm workers could help harvest that order. We had a few high school guys , my brother and I included, working on the farm that summer. One of us would take a day off, and it would be rotated among the high school guys. That Friday I had the day off. We still had not gotten a refrigerated tractor trailer to take produce to market. The ...
