The best way I can explain what I witnessed at today's so-called March for Women's Lives is to reference the movie, The Exorcist. When the possessed child, Regan, is confronted by priests who have come to expel the evil spirit from her, she reacts in shockingly vulgar, profane ways.
That is how thousands of 'pro-choice' demonstrators reacted to the presence of a lone priest blessing and praying for them along the march route.
Father Reynolds stood for hours this afternoon on Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, in front of the Navy Memorial. Other members of the clergy and pro-life activists were spread out along the same block. Almost nonstop, he made the sign of the cross with his right arm while speaking to the marchers offering blessings and prayers.
The response was nothing short of satanic. Father Reynolds was cursed at and flipped off by hundreds of marchers, many of whom sported Kerry stickers. Many other marchers mocked the sign of the cross. Some denounced God while others denied His existence.
Marchers screamed at the top of their lungs against the priest. He was repeatedly accused of being a child molester by those who support the murder of children.
One woman walked up to the priest and stood just on the other side of the police-manned fence separating the sides. She made the sign of the cross, but finished by thrusting her hips forward at the priest while she dramatically grabbed her crotch.
All the while, 'pro-choice' marchers were walking behind our lines with the permission of police. This caused me and another man to stand guard by Father Reynolds because the 'pro-choice' marchers kept harassing him and the police were slow to intervene.
I was wishing I had a video camera to document this. To see Kerry supporters acting in such a revealing and demonic manner was unsettling. Hour after hour passed of this vile, contemptuous behavior toward the priest. Noone on their side tried to rein in their evil behavior. It was the Democratic party at its most real.
The last group in the march was a bunch of homosexuals in drag who stopped and sang crude, profane songs meant to insult the clergy.
Father Reynolds blessed the men, as he had done thousands of others all afternoon. His faith was not shaken by the way he was treated today. He remained in good spirits throughout. His blessing arm was almost worn out, though :-)
Fr. Corapi mentioned Bishop Sheen last night when he was speaking about sacramentals. He heard Bishop Sheen tell the following story. Bishop Sheen was on a plane on his way to a speaking engagement. The flight attendant offered him lunch. He said, "no thanks, I'm fasting for Lent."
He noticed that the woman next to him also declined. "Are you fasting for Lent too?" "No," the woman replied,"I'm a witch, and I'm fasting for abortion."
Fr. Corapi's point: the dark side inverts sacramentals. They have their own perverted version.
Which brings me to some things I've seen at pro-life marches. In one march a group of people waved a 20-foot inflatable penis around in front of a group of 50 nuns who were praying. At another march, a group of men (who looked like derelicts and must have been satanists) were holding signs which said, "Kill Jesus," "Eat Babies," "Kill Babies." There were cursing and blaspheming.
I'm sure they were there yesterday. Perhaps the most frightening form of possession is "perfect possession." These people welcome possession, so show no outward signs of it.
Did not see much of this on the news - maybe this is why. What incredibly horrible people; but we know that.
Do think it is more than anti-Catholic hate they are sharing; it is anti-God; anti-Christian as well.
Any picts at all of these folks. . .surely brings a fresh appreciation of those 'Kerry' people. Could share them with those 'middle American', who have Kerry stickers on their car. . .and no clue.
