Stop the Moral Slide in Sri Lanka
The Dolawatta bill presently in parliament, seeks to change Sri Lanka’s penal code in order to create rights to private and public expression of behaviour such as grossly indecent unnatural carnal intercourse, as associated with unspecified sexual orientations. This change in law, as with the attempts to legalise the killing of the pre-born through abortion, are driven by Western governments and their representatives in the UN, in particular the UN CEDAW Committee and the UN HRC.
This bill once enacted will provide homosexual, lesbian, and bisexual practitioners to express their orientation in their public conduct, and it will be a violation of their rights, and illegal for citizens of good conscience to object to such acts, even when they occur in the presence of and cause scandal to children.
Further, such behaviour and states of life and the associated ideology will become normalised in culture, through the media and the educational material provided in schools for our children. So-called “marriages” between people of the same sex, or of mixed groups will proceed, and those living in such arrangements will take innocent children and form “families”.
Legalised transgenderism will enable men certified as women to enter female bathrooms and other private spaces of women, and compete with women legally in sport and for diversity-privileged power positions in institutions.
Empathy and compassion are certainly due to individuals struggling with disordered sexual propensities or with gender dysphoria. Sanctioning of carnal behaviour against the order of nature, and the affirmation of errors of judgement regarding biological identity, would be of disservice to these persons. They deserve to be told the truth and their rehabilitation needs to be authentically supported.
In order to protect the bedrock of society – which is marriage between a man and a woman that gives rise to the natural family, and for the sake of public decency, social propriety and civilizational sanity, we appeal to the people of Sri Lanka, the professionals, the media, the clergy – and to people of good will all over the world, to urge the parliamentarians to reject this bill which constitutes a substantial descent of the nation’s moral and spiritual situation, and constitutes a trigger for a multitudinous disastrous fallout.
Cultura Vitae – a movement of concerned citizens who seek to uphold the dignity of marriage, the natural family and the inherent value of human beings from their conception until natural death.

A Closed, Unsustainable, Descending Loop
As a follow-up to my thoughts on Payette’s payout, here be a stark image of where are here in Canada. As the graph shows in, well, graphic terms, since 2025, the public sector has contributed to 95.5% of economic growth. The private sector – which funds the public sector, or is supposed to – has[…]Continue reading→
Presidential Pardon of Weronika Krawczyk
As a good news, follow-up to our story from Poland, of the persecution of Weronika Krawczyk for her pro-life views, we heard that she has been granted a presidential pardon. One might still wonder why one needs a presidential pardon for simply holding the long-held belief that the child within the womb is a child,[…]Continue reading→
Pope Leo and a Rosary for Peace
Pope Leo XIV has asked Catholics across the world to join him in a Rosary for peace today, at 18:00 Rome time (6 pm), which would be noon from where I write (EST). If you are able, whether at that time or another, and in whatever way you pray, to join in intercession with the[…]Continue reading→
Payette’s Payout
I was glancing through some headlines, and noticed a mention of Julie Payette – engineer and astronaut and sometime the Queen’s representative in Canada – which brought back vague memories. She was appointed Governor-General by Justin Trudeau in 2017. Ms. Payette resigned in 2021, amidst claims that she created a ‘toxic work environment’, with allegations[…]Continue reading→
Weronika Krawczyk and Injustice in Poland
Catholic Action in Poland has issued a formal statement appealing to the President of the Republic of Poland to pardon Weronika Krawczyk—convicted for warning other women against an abortion-performing gynaecologist. Catholic Action (AK) emphasizes that no apology is owed to a doctor who has performed numerous abortions and proposed others; furthermore, the organization considers the[…]Continue reading→
Saint Isidore of Seville, the Internet and Industriousness
Today, April 4th, muted this year by Holy Saturday, is the commemoration of Saint Isidore of Seville (560-636) a bishop and doctor of the Church during a tumultuous age, when civilization was crumbling, coming apart at its very seams, which may sound sort of au courant. Then again, the form of this world has always[…]Continue reading→
Bishop Fulton Sheen’s 58th Good Friday Reflection
Incredible, at the beginning of this reflection, that the Venerable Bishop Sheen declares that he has given nearly 58 Good Friday reflections – this, as far as I can gather, was his final one, and he seems in full vigour in mind and body. The good bishop and evangelist died in his 84th year on[…]Continue reading→
A Minimal Friar and the Death of a Great Pope
This April the second- overshadowed by Holy Thursday this year – marks the memorial of Saint Francis of Paola (1417-1507), founder of the ‘Minim’ friars, so called for their humility and poverty, who interpreted the rule of Saint Francis of Assisi in quite a literal sense: extreme poverty, trust in God, foregoing all animal and[…]Continue reading→
Woven versus Seamless Garments
The reflection on the worthy project by Magie Dominic was intriguing, and I thought I would offer a brief follow-up commentary. The garment woven out of many pieces is a poignant symbol, even a ‘sacramental’, inspired by prayer and grace. We are all united in some way, and should strive for such unity, wherever we[…]Continue reading→
Bill C-9: Prelude to Persecution?
Well, it happened, as I suppose was inevitable, at least in a secular sense (from God’ perspective, there’s always hope). Bill C-9, the ironically named ‘Combatting Hate Act’ passed the House of Commons with a 186-137 vote. Look on the good side – there’s still over a hundred sane people in parliament who believe in[…]Continue reading→
