Old Catholics tell Romans to ignore your bishops

The Southern Province of the North American Old Catholic Church calls on bishops of the Roman sect to abandon their devisive and hate-filled attitude toward lesbian and gay people. The Roman bishops began a meeting on Monday (11/16/2009) in Baltimore, MD, and are expected to issue a major "pastoral letter" against equal rights for gay people.

"It is like they are telling their brothers and sisters: Thou Shalt Not Love," says Archbishop Wynn Wagner, the Regionary Bishop of the Southern Province USA of the North American Old Catholic Church (NAOCC). "They have forgotten the message of love, in their rush toward a notion of post-modernism."

The North American Old Catholic Church has called the month of November a Month of Prayer for those hurt by the Roman bishops' actions. The Old Catholic Church -- being closer to the ancient teachings of Christ -- does not consider gender or sexual orientation to be an impediment to any sacrament, including ordination and marraige.

"We call on adherents of the Roman sect to ignore the pronouncements of the later-day Pharisees," the archbishop continued. "They certainly don't speak for traditional Catholicism. Remember to pray for those bishops and those they hurt."

So many RC denominations it's difficult to keep track.

Thank God you're not talking about the Catholic Church.

“If these are some of the folks who oppose the Catholic Church, the Body of Christ, the Church established by Jesus and headed by the successor of Peter, we must be doin’ all right.”

That is one conclusion from the article. Another could perhaps be the Globalist Romanists want to eat our babies while wearing strange clothes. Or maybe not.

I believe that some folks would arrive at your “other conclusion” if requested to meditate on a green bean.

Unlike RCs on this forum who defend the indefensible fascism of Ratzinger's "global authority" encyclical, I do not defend democrat Woodrow Wilson's error regarding the League of Nations.

I prefer the liberty of the republican form of governance this country adopted and patterned after the Calvinist Presbyterian church structure -- representative government with checks and balances and an abiding faith in the people's voice of a free republic.

[Dr. Eckleburg]

"In the past" is not now.

And Sunday vestments for one hour of preaching is much preferred to a 24/7 cross-dressing priestcraft.

[Dr. Eckleburg]

No, all false bishops of Rome look the same...just like the guy in the magick ruby red slippers.

Judy Garland impersonators everywhere.

[Ransomed]

I think you are right, sadly. But it is a tiny fraction of Freepers.

Unlike Catholics on this forum who defend the non-existent fascism of His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI's "global authority" encyclical, I do not defend democrat Woodrow Wilson's error regarding the League of Nations.

Nonetheless, it was Presbyterian Calvinist Wilson (America's first fascist President) who invented fascist world governance.

LOL

Global governance is a Calvinist Presbyterian invention.

Again, thank God you're not talking about the Catholic Church.

[Petronski]

Isn’t it about time you started changing the subject by lying about Pope Benedict’s father?

[OpusatFR]

Calvin Coolidge’s tenure mimicks almost perfectly Obama’s disregard of the middle class, the struggling farmers in the midwest, and Obama’s massive breaks for huge corporations and banks.

Goldman Sacs was probably quite at home with Ol’Calvin and his Calvinist Orthodox Presbyterian organization style of mismanagement and malfeseance.

[Dr. Eckleburg]

One hour of ministerial vestments during a Sunday sermon is preferable to the 24/7 cross-dressing of Rome’s priestcraft.

[Ransomed]

This thread is about cross-dressers telling Catholics to ignore their bishops because the bishops are against gay marriage, priestesses and gay clergy in relationships.

We have bets going on over here.

Mary - 3
Purgatory - 1
Prayers of Intercession 3

And my very personal favorite:

Inquisition - 1

Come on, Opus needs a new pair of shoes!

I don't advertise my degrees, either. Unlike you, I don't even mention them.

You might want to get another degree in English literature.

Yes, I heard you first time.

And again, thank God you're not talking about the Catholic Church.

You just did.

If the maker of Italy's finest hand-made shoes offers you a free pair of shoes custom-fit to your feet, be sure to take them.

[OpusatFR]

This is getting boring.

Comparing literary degrees in kind and number gets nothing!

It had to be Mary to make money.

Darn, could have used the cash.
