⚠️My extensively researched work against vaccine mandates is now available!⚠️ ➡️www.amazon.com/Those-Who-Are-Well-Philosophical/dp…

This booklet provides the bedrock philosophical & theological foundations showing that Florida is in the right by ending vaccine mandates, and that all other states should quickly follow suit. Please share widely: we need to keep up the momentum that Florida just started.




The back story: The Spring 2025 NCBQ (National Catholic Bioethics Quarterly) journal includes a “paper against O’Connor” [that is, me] written by bioethicist/theologian/seminary-professor Fr. Matthew Schneider, LC (the Church’s most outspoken Covid-vax-advocate). In his paper, Fr. Schneider concedes that if my argument is correct, it is the best argument that has been presented showing that vaccines aren’t morally obligatory. But of course, he argues that my argument is not correct. In this booklet, I prove that my argument is correct, I refute his claims, and I show that all preventive medical interventions (including vaccines) are morally optional and therefore must never be mandated.



Anyway, the NCBQ invited me to write a response to Fr. Matthew Schneider's "paper against O'Connor." They told me it could be up to 12k words. So, I worked very hard researching & writing a 12k word article. But, three weeks after I submitted it, they told me it actually had to be 5k words.



I knew I was not going to simply throw away more than half of my work. Each thing I included was very important, and I did a huge amount of research for it. I'd be doing a disservice to the Church by just deleting it. So, I immediately got to work putting much material back into my article (I took a lot out to get it under 12k words), as well as adding in many additional important points. I also added in some important appendices, and it eventually became a small book. I did this in order to prepare it for publication elsewhere.



Then, I heard back from the NCBQ again. The updated 5k word limit was a miscommunication; I was free to keep my article at 12k words. (It really was a miscommunication; the NCBQ did nothing wrong or unjust to me.) But by that point, I had already put tons of work into adding things far beyond the 12k limit and re-writing parts of the paper for a general audience. Therefore, I decided to stick with my revised plan of publishing the work elsewhere, and I continued to add additional important content. (I’ll submit a much shorter piece to the NCBQ or another academic journal later.)




So, this is Providential. Now, I can get into the article everything that needs to be in there, and I can publish it openly in a much more accessible way, so that *everyone* can read it—not just a select few scholars who subscribe to academic journals. (For non-subscribers, purchasing a PDF of a single journal article of the sort I wrote would probably be $20+. What I’m publishing now is far better, far more comprehensive, and can be purchased for $3.) Right now, the paperback is only available on Amazon (I hope to make it available elsewhere soon.) But you can purchase the eBook (PDF version) on Amazon or on my personal web-store: DSDOConnor.myshopify.com


And the timing is also Providential. I couldn’t afford to let this sit in peer review for months. We need to, RIGHT NOW, work to turn Florida’s elimination of vaccine mandates into a national reality. And we need to do so unapologetically. The wolves who last tyrannized us during Covid are going to be circling around Florida and Governor DeSantis in the days ahead. We need to fight them with the best arguments. This book provides all the philosophical and theological ammunition necessary to do that.




I believe this paper/booklet will also be a big help to people requesting religious exemptions, and my hope and prayer is also that it will do its part to help make vaccine mandates a thing of the past. Please help me get it in the hands of all elected officials and anyone else who has influence over vaccine mandates (school administrators, Church leaders, etc.)

On ‪@EWTN‬ yesterday, Professor William Thomas promoted flagrant misinformation against the Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta.




He called her a “false mystic,” said “her cause has been stopped by the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith,” and then recited a litany of slanderous accusations against her approved writings.


This claim that Luisa’s cause was stopped is patently fake news that went viral in February 2024 thanks to a bogus article from the leftist publication, La Croix International. Yet this claim was definitively refuted later in 2024, and for Dr. Thomas to go on national TV in the middle of 2025 and repeat the lie is completely inexcusable.



For the truth, see my video from August 2024: https://youtu.be/YeemKjHjGEs?feature=...



In reality, the very Dicastery that Dr. Thomas erroneously cites (the DDF) actually APPROVED Luisa last year, bestowing upon her cause its own Nihil Obstat. The Dicastery also explicitly affirmed that Luisa’s writings contain no doctrinal errors. With his accusations, therefore, Dr. Thomas is expressely contradicting the official ruling of the Church’s highest authority (under the Pope)... and he is doing so on national (or, rather, international) Catholic Television.


I’be happy to come on EWTN any time to set the record straight: ‪@ArroyoGrandeShow‬ ‪@WomenofGrace‬ ‪@DeaconHaroldBurkeSivers‬ ‪@cominghomenetwork‬ ‪@dr.rayguarendi‬


In the meantime, let’s again review the facts:



Luisa is a Servant of God; declared as such in 1994 with the opening of her cause. Moreover, her status as a Servant of God was affirmed by her diocese (Trani, Italy) when, in 2005, the Archbishop there finalized the Diocesan phase of her cause and sent it to the Vatican. The verifications of Luisa’s authenticity flourished in her own day as well, however. She received 19 nihil obstats from a canonized saint—Fr. Hannibal di Francia—as he was appointed by the Archbishop to be Luisa’s censor librorum and spiritual director. (Each of these nihil obstats was joined by the Archbishop’s imprimatur.) Not only did St. Hannibal approve Luisa’s writings, but he also dedicated his life to promoting them, as he was utterly convinced of their supernatural origin, and he felt that they must be made known to the world. Even St. Padre Pio knew Luisa, and he repeatedly, strongly endorsed her (for some examples of this, see www.sunofmywill.com/ ). Today, approved religious orders exist, explicitly dedicated to Luisa’s writings, such as the Benedictines of the Divine Will (benedictinesofdivinewill.org/) This order—approved as a public association of the faithful in 2011—is flourishing, attracting many holy vocations, and is now opening another monastery in America. In 2016, the Vatican itself even published Luisa’s official biography, entitled The Sun of My Will, strongly endorsing the Servant of God. Cardinal Jose Saraiva Martins, the Prefect of the Congregation of the Causes of Saints under both Pope St. John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI, wrote the preface to this book. In that preface, he too strongly endorses Luisa, even writing that the “profound testimony of Luisa Piccarreta…draws people to the deepest unity with [God]... This ‘living in the Divine Will’ is the actual way in which the Son Jesus lived on earth…[Luisa] transformed her entire heart into a dwelling place for God alone. Those who met her felt drawn to the truth of Heaven” (The Sun Of My Will. Pages 10-11) Note that this renowned Cardinal, who served as the head of the Church’s canonization efforts under two Popes (including a canonized saint Pope!), does not merely endorse Luisa’s own holiness, but he also affirms the truth of “Living in the Divine Will,” which is the primary overarching theme of Luisa’s private revelations. And again, as of 2024, Luisa has now been directly approved by the highest doctrinal office in the Church.



To put it bluntly, there has never been a single mystic in the entire history of the Church who has seen such verifications of authenticity (and those above only scratch the surface) only to be later proven a fraud. That hasn’t happened because the Holy Spirit, Who protects the Church, ensures it doesn’t happen. Luisa is authentic. Period. Of course, no Catholic is required to believe or follow her as a matter of Faith; her writings are private revelations, not a new Public Revelation. But at this point it should be clear to any person of good will that Luisa, at the minimum, should not be attacked by Catholics. She is approved. Attacking her is contradicting the Church’s judgment. Mark my words, Luisa will soon be declared Venerable, and soon thereafter Beatified and Canonized. I encourage those who now willingly platform attacks against Luisa to consider how they will feel when those developments take place, if they don't now allow those same platforms to also defend Luisa. Now that Luisa has been attacked publicly on your platform, EWTN, I hope you will have the integrity to set the record straight. My email is open.
