Sweden Teaches Us about Economy in Pandemics
Dear TIA,
Salve Maria!
Here is more on Sweden. An American university professor quotes a WHO expert who says that Sweden can be a model for countries that don’t want lockdowns in their economy.
The West committed a huge mistaken following on the radical steps of China to counter-attack this virus.
It is always useful to recognize our errors: Better late than never…

Revolution & Counter-Revolution - Questions
Dear TIA,
I am slowly coming to learn the truth about the world and the Church through your valuable efforts and through the writings of Dr. Plinio, and I thank you for all that you do. I was rereading Dr. Plinio's book Revolution and Counter-Revolution when a question occurred to me, the answer to which might also help your readers.
Can the current covid planned hysteria be considered the fourth revolution after the Communist revolution? I thought about this as I observed its worldwide repercussions.
It would appear that the Revolution didn't want to go down the green path, as plastic bags and the like are making a comeback. What conditions would need to be fulfilled for it to be considered the next historical major revolution?
Thank you again for your work!
Sincerely,
C.A.
TIA responds:
Dear C.A.,
We are glad you are benefitting from re-reading Revolution and Counter-Revolution by Prof. Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira. It is a pivotal book to understand the History of the last 500 years.
We will respond your questions in the order you placed them.

- The covid-19 hysteria is an important manifestation of irrationality that raises much concern. When a world population can be so speedily induced to this stage of collective hypnosis by the concerted action of the media and governments, the heads of the Revolution can do almost anything they choose. We give you some examples of the doors that opened:
- To launch Western societies into a chaos similar to what we have seen in several Latin American countries since October 2019 in order to break the status quo and implant Tribalism by force;
- To launch a generalized Muslim insurgency in Europe to the point of setting on fire the whole Continent and destroying all its institutions;
- To augment the panic indefinitely and create the impression that no one on earth is capable of finding a cure for this or another disease. Then, through the voice of the UN, officially beg the help of space aliens to come and save us and our planet. These aliens would come with the condition of being adored. We would thus have Satanism implanted, that is, public adoration of the Devil as prepared for decades by countless Hollywood movies.
- To launch Western societies into a chaos similar to what we have seen in several Latin American countries since October 2019 in order to break the status quo and implant Tribalism by force;
- The return of plastic bags is a reaction in the epidermis of the revolutionary process. It does not reflect a change of course
toward Tribalism or the 4th Revolution.
- A revolution is considered major when it destroys one of the main pillars of the past Christendom. The three orders of society: the Church Hierarchy (1st Revolution: Protestantism); the Temporal Politico-Social Hierarchy (2nd Revolution: French Revolution); the Temporal Economic Hierarchy (3rd Revolution: Communism). To these three Revolutions should be added the complete destruction of Christian customs (4th Revolution: Tribalism) and the complete destruction of the Faith in Jesus Christ (5th Revolution: Satanism).

Did Not Find the Book
Hello TIA,
In the article 'The Latter Times & the Judgment of Nations', Margaret Galitzin mentions a small book called The Latter Times by Fr. Benjamin Sanchez.
A search for this book on the internet has proved fruitless. Would Margaret Galitzin know where one might obtain a copy of it? If not, is it possible that TIA would consider publishing the book? I would dearly love to have a copy.
God Bless,
G.D.N.
TIA responds:
Hello G.D.N.,
The book is available to purchase in Spanish here and in French here.

Miscellaneous Controversial Questions
Dear TIA Editor,
I would appreciate it very much if you would answer the following questions.
God bless you and your entire staff!

The Editor responds:
Dear R.R.,
Thank you for your kind wishes.
I will answer each of your questions in just a few words because each theme is very vast.

I would appreciate it very much if you would answer the following questions.
- Jeremiah 1:5 tells us that God knew him before He placed him in his mother's womb. God is all knowing and therefore there is NOTHING unknown to God. Does this mean that God knows if each of us will make it to
Heaven or not, before we are born?
- The Catholic Church teaches infallibly that outside the Church there is no salvation. Does this mean that except for the invincibly ignorant, all non-Catholics, including good God-fearing protestants, are destined to go to
Hell?
- The age of the earth is one of the most contentious issues in the creation/evolution debate. In today’s culture, the thought of creation occurring about 6,000 years ago is frequently mocked by non-Christians – and also by many Christians. Science teaches that the earth is millions of years old. What is the truth regarding this issue?
- Do extraterrestrials exist or not? If they do exist, are they demons from Hell?
God bless you and your entire staff!

Dear R.R.,
Thank you for your kind wishes.
I will answer each of your questions in just a few words because each theme is very vast.
- God is situated out of our time, in eternity. So, He can see past, present and future in one glance. We are situated within time, which makes it difficult for us to understand another dimension, eternity. From eternity God sees who is saved and condemned but this does not interfere with our free will. He created each one of us to give us a chance to share His eternal happiness. The fact that He knows beforehand who will be saved or condemned neither makes Him unjust, nor conditions the person to go to Hell.
- Yes, you are correct. We can learn this from the teaching of Pope Eugene IV, here.
- Science has been proven countless times to be wrong. Do you remember the method of determining the age of an object by Carbon 14 dating? Some 50 years ago many scientists mocked the Shroud of Turin saying that Carbon 14 dating tests had proven that it could not be dated back to the time of Christ. Today Carbon 14 dating has become outdated and it is positive that the Shroud of Turin is actually that of Christ. The idea that science is exact is a lie. Scientific theories and hypothesis change every 20 or 30 years. Regarding the age of the creation of man, we
stay with the Bible as an objective chronological recorder. Man has been on earth for about 6,000 years. On this point we are glad to agree with the Jews. We do not care if we are mocked by scientists. We mock them as well. Faith is more important than science.
- The so-called extra-terrestrials come from two different sources: Some come from space and they are devils of the air who take the shape of aliens, like the small one in the ET movie. Others come from the interior of earth through caves and volcanoes and they are the devils of Hell who take shape of large biped hairy creatures, like the abominable snowman. These data are known and documented by the so-called Ufologists, scholars who study the UFOs primarily in Brazil and Russia, the two places with the greatest reports of flying-saucers.
