"Rome's" Final Pope? Benedict XVIDuring one of the last conversations that the popes biographer, Peter Seewald of Munich, was able to have with Benedict XVI, as he was bidding him goodbye, he asked him: Are you the end of the old or the beginning of the new? The popes answer was brief and sure: The one and the other, he replied. The recorder was already turned off; that is why this final exchange is not found in any of the book interviews with Peter Seewald, not even the famous Light

During one of the last conversations that the popeÕs biographer, Peter Seewald of Munich, was able to have with Benedict XVI, as he was bidding him goodbye, he asked him: ÒAre you the end of the old or the beginning of the new?Ó The popeÕs answer was brief and sure: ÒThe one and the other,Ó he replied. The recorder was already turned off; that is why this final exchange is not found in any of the book-interviews with Peter Seewald, not even the famous Light of the World.

You do not have to be a Canon Lawyer to judge the current state of the papacy. Pope Benedict's attempted, invalid, "partial resignation" from the throne of Peter is the greatest crisis Holy Mother Church is suffering. Ratzinger's "Bifurcation of the papacy" has been the Freemasonic goal for generations. This bookÕs chosen topic is the hardest thing I have ever had to write; it is cringeworthy, controversial and political. I have lost friends over it, received hate mail, been told Òyou are not CatholicÓ or Òyou come on too strongÓ, been called a conspiracy theorist or a sedevacantist. And worse: ÒOur Lady must not be pleased with youÓ. Even the just, who believe the contents of this work, are afraid to write about it, say it out loud or preach it from the pulpit (for those who are shepherds) for fear of the persecution that comes with it. When I began losing friends and shunned even by priests, even though Canon Law showed me I was right, I was tempted to stop speaking about this topic publicly and go back to praying for the intention in secret.

But then, I was reminded of the parable of the talents; if Our Lord has given me so precious a gift of understanding in regard to the current state of the papacy, and then I repay Him by going and burying this truth He has given me, out of my fear of men rather than fear of the Master, how dare I. Some of the greatest Canon Lawyers in our Church, who indeed have the most influence to do good, are not speaking up about the Laws being broken. They will tell you ÒHis resignation was totally valid and looks like any of the past resignationsÓ. The only question I will pose in this description, is why then, did Pope Benedict XVI wear the Papal white all the way up until his death on December 31st, 2022?

These are quality materials!
The design and materials are above average. They fit great and are so comfortable. I have nerve damage and need open toes. These work perfectly. The colors are cute and did not fade upon washing. I will definitely order more, now that I’ve received my “trial” set. lol

Absolute game changer for chronically dry feet/cracked heels
Size: S (up to size 7)-Beige
I had recently bought a pair of silicone heel/ankle wraps to fill out my boot a little since I noticed my heels were lifting when I was skating. I tested them out around the house and noticed they left my heels softer while the rest of my sockless feet got quite dry. So I got these full foot silicone socks to see the effect of having my whole foot covered. I slather the entirety of my feet with Dr. Scholl's Severe Cracked Heel Restoring Balm (love how convenient it is to apply it to my feet with the solid stick form) and then slip them into these silicone socks. After just a couple hours, when I pull out my feet they're (a teeny bit sweaty at first), but then overall soft and smooth and have absorbed the balm fully leaving barely any residue in the silicone sock. I find these silicone socks generally comfortable; I wear them in the evenings while relaxing on the couch, take them off after a couple hours and let my feet breathe a bit, and then reapply my balm and socks and wear them to bed. If I wake up in the middle of the night, which I almost always do (not because of the socks), I'll take the socks off and allow my feet to breathe again. I wear a woman's size 6 shoe and the small size is pretty comfortable. However, I made the mistake of wearing them while being on my feet for a couple hours straight during household chores -- they must've somehow cut off my circulation a bit with the standing, so I wouldn't recommend wearing these silicone socks while being active. And since they're not exactly my foot size, they slide around sometimes and will start to feel tight at my big toe. But if that happens, I just tug on the toe area of the sock to give my big toe more wiggle room and problem solved. Prior to wearing these socks, I was soaking and doing heavy duty exfoliation of my feet every week. These socks seem like they'll work to help me extend the time between soakings and exfoliations. The 5 pack is a great value. So far none have torn, so they seem rather durable. Not sure what I could even do to tear a hole in these.

EXCELLENT FEET MOISTURE PROTECTION
Size: S (up to size 7)-Beige, Size: S (up to size 7)-Beige
Why did you pick this product vs others?: I have burns on my feet and needed something that I could put burn creme on and still walk around in with. I tried other silicone footsie but they would teae really easily. So far these are doing really well for this purpose. They are holding their shape too. The only caution I have is the same with all silicone footsies: They can be slippery on wet floors, so also wear with socks over them. The biggest issues is when they say a size they mean it. The silicone used in these have little give in them, so they won't stretch out and loose their shape. That can be a good thing, or not so good, depending on how well they fit your feet and what your intent is with wearing these. The other issue is if they fit snug around those toes, that tends to be where the first tear in the material will happen. Because of how these are made, the tear is actually more like cracking in the material and once it occurs you won't be able to get much use out of the sock after that. If you are planning to wear them around the house or for long term use, I suggest going up a size or look for the toeless options.
