>My former canon law professor, Dr. Ed Peterswho also has a degree in civil law (yeah, he's pretty smart)has been taken to task by the brilliant scholars and intellectual lights of "The View". Ken Shepherd of Newsbusters writes:
Discussing how Catholic canon law advisor Dr. Edward Peters has declared that New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) committed an "objectively sacrilegious" act that "produces grave scandal" by receiving Communion on January 2, almost every panelist on ABC gabfest "The View" today rebuked the scholar for his pronouncement. ...
"What would Jesus do?" View moderator Whoopi Goldberg asked, answering her own question by misapplying Jesus's admonition that he who is without sin may cast the first stone.
Co-host Sherri Shepherd also echoed the "cast the first stone" argument, wondering "how many people in that church that take that wine and eat those crackers are doing something at home that we don't know about?"
Not surprisingly, Whoopi misquotes Scripture. If you can stomach it, worth the watch.
No thanks. I would much rather enucleate both eyeballs with my thumbs and shove red hot pokers into my eardrums.
Why does anyone even give a damn what those cackling hens on that show think, anyway?
“eat those crackers”
What a flippant way to refer to Holy Communion. Wow, what a bigotted moron.
Where’s Dolan?
Perhaps they should read this:
According to a Polish blog, the Metropolitan Curia of Bialystok has announced the results of the investigation of an Ecclesial Commission appointed by Archbishop Edward Ozorowski on March 30, 2009. The original post (in Polish) can be found here.
Father Andrzej Kakareko, Chancellor, writes that on October 12, 2008, a consecrated Host fell out of the hands of the priest distributing Holy Communion. The priest had it picked up and placed in the vasculum in the Tabernacle. After Mass, the vasculum and its contents were transferred to the safe in the sacristy.
Seven days later, after opening the safe, a red stain was seen on the Host. Ten days afer that, the vessel with the Host was transferred to the Tabernacle in the chapel of the rectory. The next day, the Host was removed from the water and placed on the corporal in the Tabernacle.
On January 7, 2009 a sample from the host was sent to the University in Bialystok for analysis. According to two medical professionals, professor Maria Sobaniec-Lotowska and professor Stanislaw Sulkowski, the sample, in their opinion, most resembled the myocardial (heart) tissue of a living organism.
As part of its investigation, the Commission interviewed witnesses and pathomorphology experts. The Commission determined that there was no third-party intervention. The case has been forwarded to the Apostolic Nunciature in Warsaw.
While unusual in this day and age, the Church has a long history of Eucharistic miracles. The Vatican International Exhibitions Eucharistic Miracles of the World documents more than 130 worldwide miracles of the Eucharist, demonstrating that Jesus Christ in the Eucharist Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity continues to make his presence manifest at unique times and places in history.
Perhaps the most famous and well-known, is the Miracle of Lanciano, which occurred about 750 A.D. It bears repeating as it closely resembles the alleged Polish miracle. During Mass, the celebrant doubted the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. During the consecration, the Host transformed into flesh and blood. Subsequent investigations confirmed the authenticity of the human tissue. An investigation, as late as 1970, found the flesh to be cardiac tissue and the blood to be type AB.
Eucharistic Miracle
Lanciano, Italy 8th Century A.D.
Ancient Anxanum, the city of the Frentanese, has contained for over twelve centuries the first and greatest Eucharistic Miracle of the Catholic Church. This wondrous Event took place in the 8th century A.D. in the little Church of St. Legontian, as a divine response to a Basilian monk’s doubt about Jesus’ Real Presence in the Eucharist.
During Holy Mass, after the two-fold consecration, the host was changed into live Flesh and the wine was changed into live Blood, which coagulated into five globules, irregular and differing in shape and size.
The Host-Flesh, as can be very distinctly observed today, has the same dimensions as the large host used today in the Latin church; it is light brown and appears rose-colored when lighted from the back.
The Blood is coagulated and has an earthy color resembling the yellow of ochre.
Various ecclesiastical investigation (”Recognitions”) were conducted since 1574.
In 1970-’71 and taken up again partly in 1981 there took place a scientific investigation by the most illustrious scientist Prof. Odoardo Linoli, eminent Professor in Anatomy and Pathological Histology and in Chemistry and Clinical Microscopy. He was assisted by Prof. Ruggero Bertelli of the University of Siena.
The analyses were conducted with absolute and unquestionable scientific precision and they were documented with a series of microscopic photographs.
These analyses sustained the following conclusions:
The Flesh is real Flesh. The Blood is real Blood.
The Flesh and the Blood belong to the human species.
The Flesh consists of the muscular tissue of the heart.
In the Flesh we see present in section: the myocardium, the endocardium, the vagus nerve and also the left ventricle of the heart for the large thickness of the myocardium.
The Flesh is a “HEART” complete in its essential structure.
The Flesh and the Blood have the same blood-type: AB (Blood-type identical to that which Prof. Baima Bollone uncovered in the Holy Shroud of Turin).
In the Blood there were found proteins in the same normal proportions (percentage-wise) as are found in the sero-proteic make-up of the fresh normal blood.
In the Blood there were also found these minerals: chlorides, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, sodium and calcium.
The preservation of the Flesh and of the Blood, which were left in their natural state for twelve centuries and exposed to the action of atmospheric and biological agents, remains an extraordinary phenomenon.
Anything coming from Karin Johnson (Whoopie Goldberg), a person who’s murdered SIX (6) of her own unborn children, and who has been a crack addict, prostitute (?), and welfare queen, isn’t worth a hair on a frog’s ass. I get sick whenever she opens her ignorant mouth.
Can you imagine . . . SIX unborn children deliberately murdered by this woman . . . and she dares to sit in judgement of somebody else.
Whoopie had 6 abortions? Wow, didn’t know that!
At least it wasn’t rape-rape, according to Whoopie
It’s difficult to imagine any guy wanting to bang her that many times, isn’t it?
Doing Whoopi must be like vomiting a little. Just as bad as a lot.
Whoopi should have asked what would Jesus do when she had her 7th abortion.
What a slime bucket. The women on “The View should be ashamed to sit at the same table with that scumbag.
In order for a Catholic to receive Holy Communion, they must be in a state of Grace.
You cannot be in a state of Grace and have sex with a woman you are not married to.You cannot be in a state of Grace and be Pro abortion.
You can go to Reconciliation (Confesson) and be placed in a state of grace only after a promise to sin no more./
Fact is many Catholics go to Holy Communion who should not. Somehow they prepare their own conscience to ignore the teachings of the Church. It happens daily and if we believe ,we must believe that one day these decisions will be judged.
There are none of us who should judge another, but forgive me I cannot take Whoopi Goldberg even having the bald faced audacity to try to give advice to a Catholic.As for that other fat black woman, We dont eat crackers and drink wine.
To a Catholic that is the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, and to anyone who isn’t catholic it is a “Host” not a cracker. What a panel.
A better question is what did Jesus tell us to do. Coincidentally, from today’s Gospel reading:
“If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off.
It is better for you to enter into life maimed
than with two hands to go into Gehenna,
into the unquenchable fire.
And if your foot causes you to sin, cut if off.
It is better for you to enter into life crippled
than with two feet to be thrown into Gehenna.
And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out.
Better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye
than with two eyes to be thrown into Gehenna,
where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.”
“Whoopie had 6 abortions? Wow, didnt know that!”
Do a google for this trashbag and see what comes up . . . And we have to sit and listen to her?????? Disgusting!!!
Post #7, very interesting. Do you have a link?
I kept a copy of this, but did not keep the link.
