Welcome back all who were away from FR during Lent. Missed you!
Nothing the Pope can do will stem the flow of allegations of abuse against the Church from the left and the media. I sincerely hope the Church fights back using every means at its disposal.

“One Hundred Fifty Reasons I’m Catholic”
And You Should Be Too!

Satan hates the Catholic Church with such venom that it spews into the souls of people whose souls and spirits are not fully conformed to the Word of God. There is no reason for any truly conformed Christian to hate the Catholic Church. The excuses that other religions give is a cover up for ignorance.
O Divine Eternal Father, in union with Thy Divine Son and the Holy Spirit and through the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
I beseech Thee to destroy the power thy greatest enemy, the evil spirits.
Cast them into the deepest recesses of Hell and chain them there forever!
Take possession of Thy kingdom which Thou hast created and which is rightfully Thine.
O Heavenly Father, grant us the reign of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
I repeat this prayer out of pure love for Thee, with every beat of my heart, and with every breath I take.
Amen.
This was the DBM east day hit.
This will resurface during Christmas.
I am so glad I caught this thread about Pope Benedict. I have not been able to keep up with much for awhile and appreciate the information as to the charges against him and the facts of the matter. I was checking local news for the weather and the news person was reporting there were new charges of sexual abuse by Catholic clergy. Nothing else. The interesting part of that was this station seldom has anything except local stuff and certainly not details of national interest. I knew there was a piling on in progress by the media and now I am informed. I continue to pray for Pope Benedict.
To me, this is another attempt to take the Church down, but it will FAIL as always.
