Anglican connection at the end...

Traditional Anglican ping, continued in memory of its founder Arlin Adams.

FReepmail sionnsar if you want on or off this moderately high-volume ping list (typically 3-7 pings/day).
This list is pinged by sionnsar and newheart.

"Why did your church never excommunicate Hitler?"

Maybe because Hitler was not a Catholic.

"...Matt Fox has not only lost the argument but the argument is currently kicking Matt's ass."

LOL! that's a good one. I'm going to use that some day!

Pope Benedict should have belonged to the KKK instead of Hitler Youth, eg Robert Byrd and supreme Court justice Hugo Black, then MSM would give him a pass

I had to click on this to see precisely which stupid attack was under discussion -- and this one really does take the cake!

Matthew Fox gives barking moonbats a bad name!

"8:5 And when he was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion1, beseeching him2,

8:6 and saying, Lord, my servant lieth in the house sick of the palsy, grievously tormented18:7 And he saith unto him, I will come and heal him

8:8 And the centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof1; but only say the word, and my servant shall be healed2.

8:10 And when Jesus heard it, he marvelled1, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel2.

St. Matthew (Douay)

If Jesus could look upon the centurion who was certainly an officer with soldiers under his command whose Roman Procurator had a part in Christ's crucifixion, and marvel at the man's faith,

who

is Matthew Fox to condemn a man who was a teenage footsoldier who fled his army?

Wow, this guy is ready for the dudes with the white coats and butterfly nets . . .

Nothing quite so vicious against Catholics as an ex-Catholic.

Someone should up Matt's Zoloft prescription, or just buy the man a bottle of Jack Daniel's and tell him to chill.

I mean I have been accused of having to much tin foil around my head, but this guy beats me by a mile!

Says here that Matt's on the staff of Grace Cathedral of San Francisco which is in the Episcopal Diocese of California. The Bishop out there is William Swing.

Would a complaint to Bishop Swing actually do something, or would it be a waste of perfectly good electrons? Something tells me waste of electrons is probably closer.

At least this nutcase had the intellectual honesty to leave the Catholic Church, the teachings of which he obviously does not believe.

In keeping with the practice of John Paul II, Benedict might consider a formal apology on behalf of the Catholic Church to the Episcopalians for inflicting the madness that is Matthew Fox on them. "Sorry, but he got away from us."

A New Reformation can happen swiftly. It is already underway. The Internet can help feed it. The myths that have kept the Roman Catholic Church afloat for 1800 years have been washed away. (The historical Jesus never said: "Thou art Peter and upon this rock I will build my church." That came later.) Maybe the new version of Christianity need not be Peter based (Roman Catholicism) or Paul based (the Protestant option) but Mary Magdalene based. Any takers?

So where's Henry VIII to chop off a head when you really need him?

Fox is actually a sad little man.

Is this the same guy asking the questions?

Matthew Timothy Fox

Matthew Fox was born on December 21, 1940, entered the Dominicans in 1960, and was ordained a priest in 1967. In 1970 he received a doctorate, summa cum laude, from the Institut Catholique (Paris) in Medieval theology.

His first popular book on prayer, On Becoming a Musical, Mystical Bear (1972), created the impetus which eventually led to his establishing the Institute for Culture and Creation Spirituality (ICCS) in 1977 at Mundelein College, a small Catholic women’s college in Chicago. He moved the ICCS to Holy Names College, another small Catholic college in Oakland, California in 1983, where it has remained to the present day.

The ICCS teaching staff includes Starhawk the witch (alias Miriam Simos); Buck Ghost Horse, a shaman (mystic guide healer); Luish Teish, a Yoruba (West African) voodoo priestess; and Robert Frager, representing Sufism (Islamic mysticism). Typical of New Age approaches to spirituality, some psychology is thrown in: John Giannini, a Jungian analyst, and Jean Lanier, a Gestalt therapist. Brian Swimme is the resident cosmologist, and “geologian” (i.e., exponent of environmental wisdom) Fr. (Father) Thomas Berry teaches on occasion.

Fox established Bear and Company to publish creation spirituality books, such as Earth Ascending, by Jose Arguelles, originator of the 1987 “Harmonic Convergence,” and Medicine Cards: The Discovery of Power through the Ways of Animals, complete with book and “medicine shield” cards. Later he founded Creation, a magazine sponsored by the Friends of Creation Spirituality, Inc., whose president and editor-in-chief is Fox. Creation describes itself as “deeply ecumenical, deeply cosmological, deeply practical and deeply alternative.” A recent issue portrays a nude Jesus Christ, seated in the yoga lotus position, with antlers on His head (July/August, 1991). Another shows the “Qetzalcoatl Christ,” with the Lord’s face in a picture of Qetzalcoatl, the Aztec Plumed Serpent deity (May/June, 1992).

Bishop Swing is the head of the UN's United Religions, also known as the New World Religion, which is designed to be the super-state religion of the New World Order, and to replace Christianity, Judaism, and other historic religions. He's probably totally cool with Matthew Fox, whose "mother-father" god is absolutely in synch with the New World Religion. So complaining to Swing about Matt will do no good at all.

Our Triune God--the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit--is real Love, who calls us to be one with and in him. (Read Jesus' farewell address from the Gospel according to John.) The "mother-father" of the international-fascist New World Religion is an illusion of Satan that calls us to our destruction.

And I believe that the architects of the New World Religion have not taken radical islam into account. Thier attempts to destroy Christianity are more likely to lead to islamist world conquest than to a world dominated by the insipid, syncretist New World Religion. I say no thank you to either alternative!!!
