Pope Francis' Hand-Picked Episcopal Theologians on the Family Mull "Policy" for Church Employees to Live in Homosexual Unions

Before it's over, I suspect they'll announce they are taking advantage of the "policy" in a big TADA!

This is where Pope Francis cartoon caricature that a Pope doesn't make judgements will really come in handy for them.

Do you suppose this was the "new thing" Jesus was not afraid to try?

What a disaster.

I think the best we can hope for is that the Pope won't help them with their agenda or passive-aggressively publish their talking points at the synod and tell us Jesus isn't afraid of having us all take a cowboy for a ride if we are "lonely".

A pity he does not know the company of Christ or if he does, he is not interested enough to introduce it to his starving lambs.

Another disgusting revelation of the theology behind this papacy, IMO.

But this too shall pass!

Happy Thanksgiving all!!

Cardinal O'Malley's Reflection on his 60 Minutes Interview

I am a bit late posting this, but it deserves an honorable mention.

In the event you haven't read Cardinal O'Malley's post interview thoughts about his 60 minutes interview, here's the link:

http://www.thebostonpilot.com/opinion/article.asp?ID=172548

I don't know how many times I have been exasperated by the lack of honesty after a bishop and now the Pope, makes a booboo.

Hundreds of times I have wondered, when they see the reactions of the recipients of their messages and realize it went awry, why they just can't acknowledge the need for clarity and attempt to dispel the smoke and recalibrate the message, explaining what they intended to convey.

As God is my witness, the almost two years now of Pope Francis refusing to do it, it is the most compelling sign that he is full of baloney.

Clearly, Cardinal O'Malley got an earful from a lot of people who watched or got wind of the interview.

His remarks in the 60 minutes interview on Bishop Finn were cheap.  There is no due process in the Church.   Like the poor Ferguson policeman who was beaten in his cruiser by Michael Brown and killed him in self defense and lying lynch mob made false statements to the press, if the media can round up people who have an ax to grind against the Church, they use the newspapers to convict him.

The witch hunt is due process.

His clarification didn't go far enough but it was decent. I was very pleasantly surprised to see it handled in such a forthright and honest manner. It was refreshing.

Has Terrance (his head of communications)moved onto greener pastures or is he taking a respite from maligning and slandering faithful Catholics who complain about the sophomoric three ring circus?

Truth be told, I didn't buy into the spin he put on the nuns leading souls into hell generation after generation.    Having the rug pulled out from underneath their apostate show makes them feel alienated?

Cry me a river.

We are too busy worrying about the souls they mislead to waste a cell of our brains thinking about their widdle hurt feelings.  The pedophiles do less damage.  Patronizing their bitter arrogance with sappy caricatures of wounded women is not helpful.

I did love his ending. His expression that bishops are human and love Christ's Church was from his heart.

Just one teeny tiny little thing though...if I may...

Catholics who want our fiat taught and lived struggle with the concept that a bishop who deprives and starves the flock, or feeds them poison that ends in spiritual death, is loving the Church
It is like a father who supplies his children with booze and pot and tries to tell everyone willing to listen that he is loving his family.


The kiddies may be LOL all day long after daddy smokes a joint with them. The laughter may seem constructive progress to happiness.

It isn't.

The bishops and the Pope are way off track.

If I hail a taxicab, I just want a ride to where I am going. The driver may want to entertain me with his harmonica. He may have his own need to feel good about himself by making people laugh.

When I get in the backseat, he may decide he wants to hijack the ride and drive me around until he thinks he's conveyed how much he loves me.

These things are inappropriate.

A bishop is a man who is charged with teaching the tools for salvation.

As is the Pope.

When we come to Church, we want Sanctifying Grace. We want it for ourselves and the people we love. We don't need or want religious entertainment or a boost for our self esteem.

A bishops job is to make sure the priests are giving it to Christ's people. And that is the Pope's job.

They've got to love Christ's Church enough to feed His Sheep the Sanctifying Grace He sacrificed His Life to Deposit in His Church, in Its teachings and Sacraments.

Bishops are not ambassadors of good will, they are martyrs.

They speak the teachings of the Church whether convenient or inconvenient.

That is what makes them at odds with the seats of political powers.

The people of Boston are being demoralized by priests and teachers that fall under the responsibility of Cardinal O'Malley.

Forget about 60 Minutes and the Boston Globe. Come home, sit in your office and relieve us of the tyrants who are depriving us all of Sanctifying Grace.

Cardinal O'Malley suggests Jesus just didn't understand the priesthood like he does

Judging from the emails, phone calls, texts, readers here have watched Or read about Cardinal O'Malley's 20/20 interview in which he suggests he would have ordained women if he founded a Church but he's stuck with Jesus' exclusion and unwelcome of women.

While I have held the conviction for a long time that they think they are superior to Christ, hearing him imply it on television hit me like a ton of bricks.

It must be thrilling to believe yourself to have a better understanding of the priesthood than Jesus.

US BISHOPS WATER DOWN EXORCISM PRAYER

With all the spiritual problems going on in the world, the US Bishops took up the cause to water down Exorcism prayers.

I suppose we are lucky they didn't suggest saying the prayers after sucking helium and with a rubber ball at the end of their noses.

If there is an exorcist who can't study Latin and learn how to use the most effective language to expel a demon, they might want to stick to operating the women's club and youth ministry and leave the heavy lifting to the big boys.

If you want to be an IT person, you have to learn computer codes.

If you want to be an auditor, you have to learn complicated accounting principles and practices.

If you want to be an exorcist, you have to learn the Latin.

US Bishops Meet; What do we do with the drunken sailor

What do we do with the drunken sailor?

Before I get to the substance of the Bishops discussion, I call your attention to the tone Pope Francis has generated for Catholics who want the practice of their religion to be taught to our loved ones.

Poor kind and gentle Pope Francis who just can't seem to make any headway with the 2000 years of haters.  Haters gonna hate.

Imagine you're parents of three children who have been coming home from school for several years with the materials passed out in school caricaturing people who maintain their religious belief that acting in sexual desires outside of Sacramental marriage is a violation of the Ten Commandments and result in the loss of salvation as hateful bigots.

Imagine people who hold into these values losing their jobs and businesses.  Imagine the Mayor announcing in the newspapers that people with these beliefs will be precluded from earning a living in his city.

Imagine going to your church every week hoping the priest will finally say something that will help your children understand our teachings and hold onto conviction, so that your family will be united in its purpose.

Imagine five years passing without ever hearing a Church teaching as it pertains to the moral teaching of the Church.

Imagine fifteen years passing without a single pastor explaining moral teaching.

Imagine a Pope being elected who announces this silence was actually a period of obsession and what is needed is an end to preaching and teaching the moral teachings of the Church and expressing any judgments when your children move in with their lovers or divorce their husbands to live with the guy who owns the gym.  Imagine the Pope spending a year caricaturing parents upholding teaching as haters of their children and himself as the man who has come along to love them enough to try to circumvent everyone in the Church from teaching wrong from right actions and switch to the loving practice of telling everyone Jesus isn't afraid of trying new things like telling you how good adultery is.

We don't have to imagine do we.

The Pope came along just in time in the culture wars to tell you, and the world, how hateful your parents are, and show them how hard he is trying to get parents to love their children like he does, God bless his heart.

The bishops are meeting and trying to figure out what to do with all the haters who have been hating their loved ones all these years.

They don't get what all the commotion is about.

All Pope Francis wants is to silence Church teaching and invite us all to listen the the apostates.   Church teaching they don't teach won't change!  Heavens no.   Pope Francis simply wants the Church to be a place where everyone is invited to teach the benefits of sin and then listen enters form their moral compass through consensus.    Nobody will ever tell us which opinions lead to salvation and which lead to the loss of it but good times will be had by all.

Of course anyone who produces materials on Church teaching is reviled and sent packing in this dynamic but we are not supposed to notice that!

They are not sure the haters who hate are going to go along with listening to apostasy and coming to the real love that turns evil into good. They see the Pope's credibility is toast with Catholics with decades of faithful service to Christ's Church. They don't wan it to happen to them.

At least they have that part right.

Family now under the influence of the Pope Francis attack

I can't subject myself to the articles about Pope Francis demotion and exile of Cardinal Burke posted by long suffering Catholic journalists who have been luring our children into adultery and sexual debauchery, but I have been reading the headlines.

I have also been fielding questions from readers who tell me stories about how their relatives and loved ones have put adultery on full throttle, citing the counterfeit deposit of faith Pope Francis has generated with his...I am groping for charity here...statements and actions contrary to Church teaching and obfuscation of teaching.

These journalists have been permitted to use the name Catholic and flourish, while the see of bishops, the majority of which desire to license adultery from their own chanceries, have focused stripping The name Catholic from those who are trying to expose the counterfeit church they have erected within.

If I am reading the tone in the titles of articles on Pope Francis removal of Cardinal Burke written by journalists with long histories of selling sexual debauchery and adultery, they are now claiming Pope Francis agrees with their agenda and is advancing it at the Holy See.

There is no evidence to the contrary.

The Pope's public witness tells a story to our children and the people we love.

That story subverts any Church teaching we have taught in the past and it neutralizes if not renders completely ineffective, any attempt we make to persuade them that celibacy, chastity, Sacramental Marriage until death, Sunday obligation and other explanations in the Catechism about the Ten Commandments in the future.

Our families are now under attack from the sitting Pope.

I have read stories referencing a schism and internal war.   I believe even Cardinal Burke referenced the danger of schism under Pope Francis does exist.

The problem with this situation is, it's all going to creep back into homilies and religious education and our Sacred Liturgy, Sacraments and Rites.

Those who have been luring our children away from Church teaching have been declared as holding a true deposit of faith which is being caricatured by Pope Francis as some kind of ignorance of 2000 years of Popes and Saints.   They are being invited to promote heresy as church teaching in an effort to help the Pope, who is here to enlighten us of benefits of adultery and memorialize contradicting the Catechism as the practice for salvation.

The sappy silliness of clapping fornication is making its way into former strongholds.   Good pastors are getting caught up into it.

The stories written about Cardinal Burke are really about us as the heads of our family and our ability to carry out our vocation to teach the tools for salvation with efficacy.

It's destruction is at hand and I have lost the urge to put up a facade about who is leading that attack.

Open letter to Cardinal Burke

 +
IHS

November 7, 2014

Dear Cardinal Burke,

Thank you doesn't adequately express the gratitude I feel for the witness of your magnificat.

You were in the right place in the right time to demonstrate the kind of love that will pay any price for the Truth.   We so desperately needed the example of the sacrificial love for Christ and His Church that is not for sale for any role, threat of persecution, dismissal.

You have eloquently expressed your respect for the Holy Father through it all.  I hope you know how much fruit that bore.  Those of us whose children and loved ones are being misled by the things Pope Francis is saying and not saying, doing and not doing, have struggled with respect.   It is difficult to respect a man who is robbing your children of their salvation.  I would have more respect for their murderer.   The way you have conducted yourself has made a difference to me and many others.

There is a rugged road ahead.   Many, many Catechized families who live their lives using the Sacraments to fight temptation, purge sin and maintain a state of Sacramental Grace have been so scandalized they are in danger of seeking refuge with the schismatics.

Nothing but open, honest and candid evaluation of the scandal and the witness and expression of remaining on the Ark of the Covenant come what may is going to help them through this storm.

Denial and silence sends them to the schismatics who openly discuss the scandal but have fallen into despair and abandoned Christ.   The number of solid Catholics contemplating this as a refuge is catastrophic.  The situation needs your continued open witness and leadership.

You are being bound and led to where you do not want to go so you can feed the sheep.

I am sorry for the loss and pain this situation has brought upon you but know you would not have done it unless you knew it was a cheap price to pay for the Price of our salvation.

Find a way to publish steady guidance on the Internet.   Use media sources to get newsworthy responses into the press.  

Get ready for the irony of the uncatechized to use the word "disgraced" to caricature the sacrifice you made for Sacramental Grace.

I know your love for Christ will not let you waste time at a pity party and so we look forward to you getting settled into your new role, and I am not talking about the one in Malta!

A thousand thank yous for helping our children and loved ones navigate through the storm.


Dancing with the Maroons

Sorry for the silence!

I've been catching up with some knitting and home projects to prep for Thanksgiving and Christmas. 

I have been keeping up with major news. The situation in catechesis is catastrophic. I am sure you have experienced the Pope Francis licenses for adultery in your own family and world. Relatives and friends who were hanging onto truth by a string have been cut loose by the demonic forces who haven risen all around us to mock Christ's Church.

I've read all the things Pope Francis is now suddenly saying to advance a counterfeit deposit of faith. Of all the things that floor me, the conniving sneakiness of the roll out of this agenda, now obvious to me, really takes the cake.

He intentionally kept it all hidden and worked behind the scenes to line up the apostates to build the counterfeit teachings they planned and plotted to lower upon us all in a big "TADA".  He carefully kept his intentions well-hidden so that they could lower the agenda on us with a sonic boom at the synod knowing it would create chaos.

Looking back on it now, it slithers and hisses like a snake.

I could not bring myself to watch the Cardinal O'Malley's canonization of Mayor Menino at the funeral but I read and heard the disgraceful display the quislings put on in the public square.

The practicing Catholics I know don't even know who they were talking about as they experienced a vindictive vicious man who persecuted Christ's followers and sexualized children.

Cardinal O'Malley said Mayor Menino always put his faith first.

Mayor Menino organized a 'prom' and invited children as young as 13 years old and handed out materials on homosexual sex and condoms.

I am assuming Cardinal O'Malley believes this to be a shining example of putting catholic teaching front and center.

A few years back, Mayor Menino divulged that he was ensuring that business owners who believe marriage is a Sacrament preserved for a woman and man were denied business licenses.

You read that right.

Mayor Menino said there were ways to stop people who hold these beliefs from earning wages and he was behind the scenes making sure we can't operate a business in Boston.

I won't bore you with the immorality, licentiousness, contraception and abortion Mayor Menino pushed while enthroned as Mayor, but one is forced to draw the conclusion that Cardinal O'Malley believes this is how a Catholic should persuade others what Catholic teaching is all about.

A Catholic Cardinal would take the life of a man who demoralized and sexualized children and stand in the public square and say this is how you put the Catholic religion "first".

Pope Francis style, I suppose.

Fr. Connolly, pastor at the parish The Mayor had the Rite of Christian Burial from, who I thought had more sense in his head, reported to the press that there is an old joke about living your life so the priest won't have to lie at your funeral. He said mayor Menino lived his life so that priests wouldn't have to lie. He let the current Mayor stand in the Sanctuary and announce the work Mayor Menino did to advance gay marriage was priceless. He then let them roll the casket out onto the Church steps where they piped in Frank Sinatra to sing "I did it my way".

I kid you not. They all stood there with their hankies on the front steps of our Church singing what is a man, what has he got, if not himself then he has naught. Standing on the steps outside the Price of our souls salvation singing about how the corpse in the casket did it his own way. What a mockery of our religion and the sacred Rite of Christian Burial.


Better stock up on popcorn and lemonade, The Pope Francis show is commencing at your local parish, Dancing with the Maroons.
