To those just happening across this thread as it scrolls down the ever-gushing main page ...

You MUST read this thread. There is more here than I could ever tell you about. It just goes on and on.

I know this will be taken as Catholic bashing but believe me it is not. You dear RC people ... you are astonished at the evil infecting your church at pandemic levels and yet you refuse to see that you openly invite it every day of your lives. It is indeed sad. Of all your doctrinal probems and quirks none of them are actually a slap to the face of God ... except your deification of a mere woman.

I know it hurts. You hate me and I shall be reported for catholic bashing. Probably get a 'knock it off' from Jim as you have seen to me getting before. I could even be banned. Oh well. I must do my duty and speak the truth.

Look in the Old Testament to what happend to the Jews who insisted on praying to the Queen of Heaven. God can not just look over this one as he looks over so much else we mistakenly do in His name. This one brings demons.

You really must stop being surprised that Sodomites have taken over your church. It is such a shame that you also cause good men such as Polycarp to sacrifice so much just so you can continue praying to your goddess. Oh well. It's always the same.

The church is infected with evil, not because we invite it, but because Satan himself has tried to destroy it. It didn't work. Asking for intercession from the Blessed Mother is not an issue.

You may mean well, but please understand that this one episode in 2000 years worth of fighting evil. One.

It's always such a shame that people who are not Catholic try to tell us that we do know our own faith, but we do. We know that we are under attack and we will not surrender, except to God, His Son, The Holy Spirit and the company of Heaven, including the Blessed Mother.

Thank you for your imput.

The Blessed Mother is not a goddess. She is the Mother of God, the Son, Jesus Christ.

"...Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen."

Like I've said, Satan knows the right address, and his minions do his bidding, some knowingly, like the SOBs I'm fighting here locally, and some unknowingly, like you. I'll pray for you every time I pray for them, which is daily. You and they are both attacking Christ by attacking His Church.

May God Bless you abundantly, illuminate your darkened intellect, and have MERCY on your soul.

Stop picking on God's mom. She's my mom, too, and if you don't knock it off, I'll give you a black eye!

Sir or Madam:

You flatter yourself that you will be the object of any Catholic attempting to have you banned for your rather standard issue deformationist heresies. We understand that you are depending upon your own personal interpretation of Scripture (YOPIOS) which is evidently insufficient.

Your Bible, whether the magnificent King James (as commissioned by King James) or the new, new, new, good news up-to-date scriptures easy enough for even today's public school kids to read and become confused by together with explanatory anti-Catholic notes (which are NOT, ahem, traditions of men whatever those durn Catholics might say), does not tell you the lie that Catholics worship Mary. You needed your pastor or your neighbor to provide the old calumny. Just what you folks have against God's mom is a mystery to rational men and women. Just what you have against Jesus Christ who told His own disciples that if they did not eat His Flesh and drink His Blood they would not see heaven (See John 6) is a mystery as well. As John wrote: Many of the disciples found this a hard saying and walked away. Many (and I presume you) still do.

Let me state that I have never sought to have anyone banned or admonished. I think that we have better things to do than squabble over doctrines on a site devoted to conservatism, but that would be an unwinnable fight since people are just addicted to these squabbles. So I must play my role as a Catholic in response.

Far better than having you banned is for your beliefs and ideas to be posted so that all may see them and judge for themselves. Don't you agree? No Catholic who knows anything about this Church founded your Savior and mine (see Matthew) need fear being affected in the slightest degree of doctrine by those who would so worship their own preferences as to ignore the Teaching Magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church and choose their own heresies among the thousands available.

Jesus Christ, God's only begotten Son, was made flesh and dwelt amongst us, lived thirty-three years or so and had a three year public ministry. He founded His Church upon Simon bar Jonah whom He renamed Peter and was the first of many Peters culminating up to now in Pope John Paul II and guaranteed that He would be with THAT Church all days until the end of the world. He was betrayed, suffered, died on the Cross, resurrected and ascended into heaven, promising to send the Paraclete who would also protect THAT Church.

Now it is the pretense of the deformed churches that Jesus Christ did all this so that a renegade Augustinian monk would come along nearly fifteen centuries later, massacre his vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, and drive a wedge into the Church created by Jesus Christ Himself so that all men and women could become their own individual arbiters of Scripture, taking a little from here and a little from there and ignoring many other passages to create their own churches intheir own images and likenesses.

Seek to have you banned? Whyever would we want to do that? Christ's own Church or YOPIOS? Sounds like a no-brainer to me and one that calls upon Catholics to pray for you, now and at the hour of your death and thereafter since your evident sincerity may well result in your victory in achieving purgatory on your way to heaven which the Church militant on earth may speed through prayer.

Trying to have another banned or admonished over disagreements is the act of a coward. We are conservatives. We are big boys and girls. If we cannot disagree among ourselves with valor, how WILL we fight the liberals, who are our real and mutual enemies and Christ's, as well?

God bless you and yours.
