Hail Mary!
full of Grace the Lord is with thee.
Blessed is thou amongst women.
Blessed is thy fruit of the womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary Mother of God Pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.
Thank you for this beautiful thread....
Vivat Pope Benedict XVI
RD
He spoke the truth.
The last paragraph in your post - very well said and unfortunately it's the Truth.
As a Roman Catholic I thank you for your support in our concerns for Pope Benedict. I'm sure Pyro's warning was not meant for those who, like you, have such good hearts.
Huh?
The expression "poop deck" comes from "pupi deck." Pupi were small Roman idols, household gods, and were given a special place on ships of the Roman era.
Thank you for the ping, Salvation.
Prayers always for Pope Benedict.
Oh, that's very interesting!
Prayers sent.
Thank you, my friend, for starting this thread. Excellent prayers.
Thank you and God bless you also!
God hears the prayers of ALL of his faithful!
Please don't be offended by Pyro's plea for unity; he was definitely not referring to all non-Catholics. It's just that there are a handful of anti-Catholic zealots who love to jump on any thread that references the pope and proceed to trash our beliefs.
As others have stated, all Christians and Jews must be united in this fight against this evil.
"I ask all who have theological disputes with either these prayers or Catholic teaching to please stay off this thread."
I have a few theological differences with Catholic teaching, myself, but I've also found the last three or four popes to be reasonably decent people, despite those differences. (I'm not old enough to remember back any farther than that.) In this particular instance, it again appears to me that Benedict XVI is another of those basically decent people, and I don't see that he's wrong in this case, either. He is in my prayers for the wisdom and courage to do what is right, and for safety and protection here on earth if that is what the Lord wishes for him. So are all who follow him. I'm also praying that all the other leaders of the world will follow his example in this. Good luck, and God Bless!
"One, Twice, Three Times a Lady" ......... speaking of "I love it too".
Listening to it now on the radio.......... beautiful.
L.R. did nicely.
:-)
Excellent. Thanks for the ping.
Thank you for posting the prayers. Praying for our Pope's protection. May God keep him safe.
