Firstly, Catholic Social Action/Catholic Social Justice , especially in regards to profamily and pro-life activity is discouraged under Francis. People do not go to heaven just by sitting and waiting. "When was it Lord when you were hurting, lonely or dying did we help you or neglected you? " Including teaching and spreading the Faith to others. Pope Francis prevents and discourages your positive actions.He not only laughs in your face, but encouraged by example, to have others who believe they are following the Faith, to laugh at your actions and words, and Teaching that your actions do not represent Authentic Catholic Teaching or Action. <br />Secondly, by not resisting Francis in public, we are loding a grand opportunity to contribute to Catholic development of an important doctrine in regards to the limits, previously not questioned, of Papal and episcopal subservience to statements purported to be Teaching, but may not be. And to what extent Papal and Episcopal Ordinary Teachings are to be more previsely viewed, and citiqued.<br />Indeed, the result of this Crisis will make our Catholic Teaching more crystal clear than ever before.Constantinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15957650751915614843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4404498638452030181.post-10376789170540691452019-04-23T06:07:29.971-07:002019-04-23T06:07:29.971-07:00That would be worse.

And I do resent not being given the beautiful Faith of my parents and grandparents. I do have a lot of good Catholic books....including the Catechism of the Council of Trent. I should read them more, and teach myself more like I've tried to do.<br />The Church will change indeed....maybe not soon, but if we get a Pope less like the one we have now, and more like previous (even just a litte bit), that will be a step in the right dirction.<br /><br />I've seen the Ukranian Catholic Cathedral in Philly. Beautiful. JP II visited it.

I know because I've gone through it myself. <br /><br />My suggestions (for what they're worth): Pray for Pope Francis. I know it's hard praying for someone who has hurt you but I'm speaking from personal experience (not with him but another person consecrated to God). To paraphrase Churchill, it took 2 years of prayer, blood, sweat and tears to forgive him. <br /><br />Now I look at that and thank God that He spared me from losing my faith at that time. <br /><br />One day the crisis in the Church will end - not today or tomorrow, but it *will* end. <br /><br />Second, bone up on the traditional teaching of the Church. We're both in the Philadelphia area. If Tancred permits, I'll post the information of a fellow in Philadelphia who sells used Catholic books. I've dealt with him for 15+ years and he's a nice guy. He advertises in traditional Catholic publications so I'd post his ad information.<br /><br />That's about it for now. <br /><br />In the Risen Christ,<br /><br />Margaret<br /><br /><br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4404498638452030181.post-88324394121075849582019-04-22T19:50:44.209-07:002019-04-22T19:50:44.209-07:00Damian,

I have Russian Orthodox cousins. We have much in common but cannot pray together. That hurts me more than you can imagine. The last sentence of your post doesn't help either.

Some of their ancient mosques are among the most breathtaking and beautiful monuments in the world. Though Islam does not go in for representation of the human form, (and you won't see statues anywhere), they do go in for ornamentation, and verses form the Koran etched in beautiful script in mosaics along the walls of mosques. Those in Iran, Iraq, and Morocco are among the most outstanding (and Turkey). <br />As a religion, it was born in bloodshed and conflict, and that has been one of their chief tools to spread their religion. Until the 8th century, the whole of the Middle East and much of North Africa all the way down to Sudan, was Orthodox(Greek) Christian. Now the Orthodox world is reduced to Greece, most of the Balkan states, and of course, the biggest country in the world, Russia.<br />So if Islam had never been born (and many wish it hadn't), all those countries, plus Turkey, the entire Middle East, and all North Africa down as far as Sudan and Ethiopia would be Orthodox Christian....bigger than the Roman Catholic Church of today. But Orthodoxy is not much into missionary activity, so I don't know if it would have spread even further.<br /><br />Damian MalliapalliAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4404498638452030181.post-61131329836014567742019-04-22T03:44:49.985-07:002019-04-22T03:44:49.985-07:00To be fair, "Allahu akbar" means : "...To be fair, "Allahu akbar" means : "God is Great". And you should respond "El-Messiagh Akbar". Meaning:"The Messiah is Great".Or you may say "El-Messiagh kaum". Which means "The Messiah is risen". Of course, you run risks, but it will tick them off very much. Because Islam does not believe that Christ the Messiah came or rose from the dead.

The media quoted the estimate for today at 70,000. <br />Since St. Peter's Square can hold 250,000+ (and Pius XII got 500,000 for the canonization of Pius X in 1954 and the Dogma of the Immaculate Conception in 1950), and JP II's funeral was huge too....Bergoglio got a handful in comparison. <br />Even Paul VI (who was not a popular pope), got 150-200,000 each Easter.)<br /><br />I guess the Romans and Italians are sick of hearing Francis' perpetual screed, whine, moan about the "poor persecuted" migrants....99.9% of whom happen to be his favorite people....Muslims.<br /><br />Damian MalliapalliAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
