I just saw this today in the morning with my wife, and I was shocked at how openly satanic this was.

The pre-show narration says, "But if its savory sins that your heart truly desires, well our boys at the...snack shack have you covered. And if three's a crowd (at this point a guy on a bus shouts out "who's with me?") then 50 Long Island moms crashing The Chew is a party."

Then the hosts kicks the show off by saying, "You know people ask me all the time 'Clinton, what is hot right now?' well listen up because I'm about to tell you. Sin is in."

Then, in a seeming mockery of the sacrament of confession, the host invites people in the audience to confess their secret sins. The first one confesses that she had lied by calling in sick to be on the show. Then one of them confesses to feeding a cat food sandwich to someone they were angry with and then another audience member confesses to fornicating with someone. At this, everyone laughs and applauds. :sick:

Anyway, the episode is already on YouTube, and here it is:

The Chew 07-05-2015 SINFUL SNACKS FULL EPISODE

It's the boasting, the laughs, and the applause for sins that makes me feel sick watching it.

Trivia fact:
ABC, the same ones who aired this show, is part of the same company with Disney.

With the scourge of Islamic terrorist armies posing a global threat to civilization and Satanism now being mainstream in the world's pop culture, it is my opinion, and I have no doubt, that THE Antichrist is in the world today. Scripture foretold that the devil would know when his time is short.
"Rejoice then, O heaven and you that dwell therein! But woe to you, O earth and sea, for the devil has come down to you in great wrath, because he knows that his time is short!” - Rev. 12:12

"Before Christ's second coming the Church must pass through a final trial that will shake the faith of many believers. The persecution that accompanies her pilgrimage on earth will unveil the "mystery of iniquity" in the form of a religious deception offering men an apparent solution to their problems at the price of apostasy from the truth. The supreme religious deception is that of the Antichrist, a pseudo-messianism by which man glorifies himself in place of God and of his Messiah come in the flesh." - CCC, 675

Eschatology or the Catholic Doctrine of the Last Things - A Dogmatic Treatise, Rev. Joseph Pohle, Ph.D., D.D.
4. THE GREAT APOSTASY AND ANTICHRIST.—The “great apostasy,” i. e. a tremendous defection among the faithful, is described partly as the cause and partly as an effect of the appearance of Antichrist. Both events may be reckoned among the signs that are to precede the Last Judgment, because it is certain that either before or after the conversion of nations and of the Jewish race there will be a great revolt, led by Antichrist, which will reduce the number of the faithful.

a) That a great apostasy will occur before the end of the world we know from St. Paul’s Second Epistle to the Thessalonians.

The congregation at Thessalonica had taken alarm at a spurious letter purporting to come from the Apostle, “as though the day of the Lord were near.” To prove the genuineness of the present epistle, and as a precaution against forgery, St. Paul inserts the following words in his own handwriting: “I, Paul, [send you] this greeting with my own hand. That is the sign in every letter; thus I write.” His references to the end of the world appear rather obscure to us because he adverts to certain things which he had told the Thessalonians by word of mouth and of which we have no knowledge: “Do you not remember that while I was still with you I used to tell you these things?” On one point, however, he is quite clear, viz.: that the “day of the Lord” (ἡ ἡμέρα τοῦ κυρίου) will not come “unless the apostasy first befall, and the man of lawlessness be revealed, the son of perdition.” “Apostasy” (ἡ ἀποστασία, discessio) in this connection can scarcely mean a political revolution, for the whole movement is described as “a mystery of iniquity,” a satanic “seduction to evil for them that are perishing, because they have not entertained the love of the truth unto their salvation. And therefore God sendeth them a working of error, that they should believe that lie, in order that all may be judged that have believed the truth, but have acquiesced in unrighteousness.”

It is true that some older exegetes understood this text as foreshadowing, at least secondarily, a great political upheaval, in particular the fall of the Roman Empire. But neither this catastrophe, nor the Protestant Reformation (1517), nor the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire (1806), have proved to be the discessio predicted by the Apostle.

b) In the passage quoted above St. Paul mentions another sign among those preceding the day of the Lord, viz.: the revelation of the “man of sin,” the “son of perdition,” who is usually called Antichrist.

α) The name Antichrist is not found in the Epistles of St. Paul, but in 1 John 2:18, 22; 4:3; 2 John 7 St. John speaks of “antichrists” in the plural number, but there can be no doubt that he believed in a personal Antichrist. Cfr. 1 John 2:18: “Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist cometh, even now there are become many antichrists: whereby we know that it is the last hour.” This personal Antichrist is to be preceded by messengers who will prepare the way for him and inaugurate his reign. Cfr. 1 John 4:3: “And every spirit that dissolveth Jesus, is not of God: and this is antichrist, of whom you have heard that he cometh, and he is now already in the world.” The Greek text is more definite: καὶ τοῦτό ἐστι τὸ τοῦ ἀντιχρίστου [the work of Antichrist], ὃ [not ὅς] ἀκηκόατε ὅτι ἔρχεται, καὶ νῦν ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ ἐστὶν ἤδη. Evidently the Antichrist predicted by St. John is not merely a pretender, but the incarnate antithesis of our Divine Saviour, and therefore His deadly enemy. Whether “Antichrist” is merely a collective name for certain persons and tendencies, or whether it designates one particular person, a human individual of flesh and blood, cannot be concluded with certainty from the Johannine text. St. Paul, however, is positive on this point. He speaks of Antichrist as “the man of lawlessness,” “the son of perdition,” who “shall oppose and exalt himself against all that is called God” and “seat himself in God’s sanctuary, giving himself out as God.” “And then shall the lawless one be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus shall slay with the breath of his mouth and bring to nought by the manifestation of his coming. But that other’s coming is through Satan’s working [attended] by every [kind of] feat and sign and lying wonder, and by every seduction to evil for them that are perishing.” This graphic description cannot be applied to a mere personification, but points to a concrete individual, and hence we may safely reject the figurative interpretation of “Antichrist,” though it is not necessarily contrary to Catholic teaching.

What part of satanism is now popular and out in the open?

Arguably this could be akin to black mass - a purposeful mockery of traditional Christian concepts - the whole confession of sins, etc. leading to encouragement of the sins. I don't really see it as "satanic", but i guess I get where he is coming from.

Something is either satanic or it isn't. It is satanic if it embraces sin and calls it good. And if it is satanic it is Satanism.

Er, I don't think that follows. Satanism is a ritualised religion/philosophy. Someone who has premarital sex isn't a Satanist, but someone who attends the Black Mass might be. I think you're confusing "satanic influence" and Satanism.

That is splitting hairs. Whether people overtly celebrate sin inside or outside of a satanic temple building makes no difference.

Pope Francis - Morning Meditation in the Chapel of the Domus Sanctae Marthae - Faith Is Never a Private Matter ( 28 November 2013)
Commenting on the Readings from the day taken from the the Book of the Prophet Daniel (6:12-28) and the Gospel of St Luke (21:20-28), Pope Francis began by noting that “they make us think of the final days, the end of time, the end of the world, of the time of the final coming of Our Lord Jesus Christ”. In fact, he explained, “in our lives, in the life of each one of us, we have many temptations. Many. The devil pushes us to be unfaithful to the Lord. Some times he pushes hard.” However, the Pope said, today’s liturgy “speaks to us about a universal temptation, about a universal trial, about the time when the whole creation, the whole of the Lord’s creation will be faced with this choice between God and evil, between God and the prince of this world”.

That is splitting hairs.

No, it isn't. One is active worship. The other is sinful indulgent behaviour, often by people who aren't religious in any way. There is a difference. Catholics don't magically become satanists just because they decided to touch.

Anyway, I have been reading books on demonology and exorcism lately and they mention that ritualised Satanism is on the rise - and that black masses might even be available weekly in major cities. That's a scary thought. I've never met a satanist or anyone who was into the "dark side" of things.

I have to agree with Gwen here. "Satanism" is active religion of Satan worship involving rituals, dark sacraments, sacrifices, spells, overt commitment to a bizarre cult. Satanists invoke demons like Baphomet and draw pentagrams on the floors of their cellars, light black candles, say incantations and Catholic prayers in reverse, have orgies, wear goat head dresses, etc. etc.

Yes, one can say that Islam or gay pride parades or abortion clinics or murders or adultery or other sins and sinful activities and belief systems are "Satanically-inspired," but full-on Satanic? That's a stretch for me. ANY heresy had to be Satanically-motivated thanks to the Fall, but to say it's full-on Satanism, that doesn't work for me. Islam, for example, is a Christian heresy. It is a blurry distortion of the truth of God. It contains truth in it, it has some beauty in there, but there is enough distortion and ungodly heresy there to show this is NOT the Truth of Christianity. It is false and dangerous. But do Muslims worship Satan? Do they actually practice Satanism? I would argue no.

Yes, I see a difference between influence and worship.

It's a reflection of a Christian culture obessed with private, mostly sexual, personal stuff so that "sin" becomes equated with "things prudes frown at" instead of individual and collective behaviours that result in real injustice and harm in the world.

Christians have devalued the word.
