Thank you for your kind message.
When I sa...Anon,<br /><br />Thank you for your kind message.<br /><br />When I say my children (yours and uncatechized in general) have been robbed of their salvation, what I am trying to say is, the statements made by the Pope confirm what apostate priests have been teaching them for years: Sleeping around, contraception and abortion is okay so long as we do volunteer work to benefit the poor.<br /><br />The twenty years of parents telling them that the priest is wrong and trying to tell them to make choices in accordance with Church teaching has been laid to waste. <br /><br />Consequently, they now, like many others, have been kidnapped from the road to sanctifying grace to journey of practicing social graces and manners, compounding mortal sin upon mortal sin. <br /><br />The only place Catholics can get their salvation is from priests. We have to have all the tools to make judgements between right and wrong, have remorse for failings and confess them to receive absolution and grace to amend our lives. <br /> <br />I consider righting this wrong seems more important then lifting the self esteem of women who have been upset the Holy See is without their leadership.<br /><br />It pours salt in the wounds!TTChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08738875888053745269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1015949969530867456.post-41409590456185090392014-03-24T02:52:06.796-04:002014-03-24T02:52:06.796-04:00"My children are currently robbed of their sa..."My children are currently robbed of their salvation and I want their inheritance to be restored."<br /><br />If you and your children have embraced Christ as the ultimate universal redeemer and abide in Him, then you and your children's salvation has not been robbed; your and their inheritance cannot be stolen. The Second Person of the Trinity does not need a group of hi-falootin, self-benighted clerics to speak for Him or His Spirit. Read His encounters with the Pharisees in St. Matthew's Gospel. Those Pharisees aren't any different from the 21st-century bunch governing the Church today.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1015949969530867456.post-53893215201533134712014-03-23T18:38:15.541-04:002014-03-23T18:38:15.541-04:00TTC: Your comments are right on the mark!

Though we can and must try, we have no efficacy."<br /><br />We have become the PROBLEM (orthodox Catholics)in the eyes of those who read and accept so-called catholic (note small "c") teachings, via The Boston Globe. <br />We have actually accepted and truly believe what had/has been taught at out mother's knees, anent the Catholic Faith.<br /><br />Michael Davittnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1015949969530867456.post-76435608697902583902014-03-23T17:18:00.186-04:002014-03-23T17:18:00.186-04:00The new ultra secularist Boston Globe owners hired...The new ultra secularist Boston Globe owners hired John Allen, and gave him a high profile assignment: the promotion of Cardinal O'Malley, as a potential American papabile.<br /><br />Clearly Cardinal O'Malley is the favorite papabile of the secularist elites.

This is what John L. Allen Jr. wrote last October:<br /><br />"In July, O’Malley candidly acknowledged in an interview with the National Catholic Reporter that “if the conclave had lasted another day or so, I would have been in great danger” – meaning, of course, that he might have been the one wearing white.<br /><br />(…)<br />Italian journalist Eugenio Scalfari recently said in a conversation with Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi that he doesn’t believe the Church will ever see a “Francis II.” With O’Malley very much in mind, some observers believe he just may be wrong about that.<br /> <br />Francis will be 77 in December, they note, and one logical trajectory of his effort to reinsert the papacy into the College of Bishops would be to follow the lead of Benedict XVI and resign, perhaps when he reaches 80. If so, that would mean stepping aside in late 2016 or early 2017, at which point O’Malley would be just 72, four years younger than Bergoglio when he was elected."<br /><br />http://vaticaninsider.lastampa.it/en/world-news/detail/articolo/francesco-francis-francisco-28359/<br />Martina Katholikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07891671172843888683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1015949969530867456.post-87366117860874933852014-03-23T12:19:46.232-04:002014-03-23T12:19:46.232-04:00In effect the annulment tribunal process will be e...In effect the annulment tribunal process will be eliminated and instead of a finding (through a canonical judicial process) that no marriage existed, it's likely that a parish or regional cleric, will decide (subjectively) that a valid marriage can be wished away and some sort of "repentence" allows for reception of Communion. This is step one in denying the Divine Presence and the Holy Eucharist is merely a symbol.<br /><br />I'll be taking the Flannery O'Connor approach, when the time comes:<br /><br />"Well, toward morning the conversation turned on the Eucharist, which I, being the Catholic, was obviously supposed to defend. [Mary McCarthy] said when she was a child and received the Host, she thought of it as the Holy Ghost, He being the 'most portable' person of the Trinity; now she thought of it as a symbol and implied that it was a pretty good one. I then said, in a very shaky voice, 'Well, if it's a symbol, to hell with it.' That was all the defense I was capable of but I realize now that this is all I will ever be able to say about it, outside of a story, except that it is the center of existence for me; all the rest of life is expendable." from "The Habit of Being"<br /><br />breathnachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12308036185276331387noreply@blogger.com
