Pope Benedict XVI prays in front of the Holy Shroud in Turin's cathedral, Italy, Sunday, May 2, 2010.

I hope you all had the opportunity to watch this meditation on EWTN. If not, here is the full text of an absolutely beautiful introspective view of the shroud.

“I carry in my heart the entire Church, indeed the whole of humanity.”

And this is why the culture of death wants to take him down.

Religious person: by definition, someone who needs to see something in order to have faith, contradictory to the Scriptures which clearly states that faith is the evidence of things NOT seen.

Forget the word “venerate.” They will worship it. In religion there is such a thin line between venerate and worship . . . just about no difference at all.
