For this screed, quix says, “I’m not greatly interested in arguing about whether such are authentic, Biblical, accurate etc.”

But if it is a Catholic thread - watch out!

My soul magnifies the Lord,
And my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.
For He has regarded the low estate of His handmaiden,
For behold, henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
For He who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is His name. And His mercy is on those who fear Him from generation to generation.
He has shown strength with His arm:
He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
He has put down the mighty from their thrones,
and exalted those of low degree.
He has filled the hungry with good things;
and the rich He has sent empty away.
He has helped His servant Israel, in remembrance of His mercy;
As He spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to His posterity forever.

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen

Magníficat ánima mea Dóminum,
et exsultávit spíritus meus
in Deo salvatóre meo,
quia respéxit humilitátem
ancíllæ suæ.

Ecce enim ex hoc beátam
me dicent omnes generatiónes,
quia fecit mihi magna,
qui potens est,
et sanctum nomen eius,
et misericórdia eius in progénies
et progénies timéntibus eum.
Fecit poténtiam in bráchio suo,
dispérsit supérbos mente cordis sui;
depósuit poténtes de sede
et exaltávit húmiles.
Esuriéntes implévit bonis
et dívites dimísit inánes.
Suscépit Ísrael púerum suum,
recordátus misericórdiæ,
sicut locútus est ad patres nostros,
Ábraham et sémini eius in sæcula.

Glória Patri et Fílio
et Spirítui Sancto.
Sicut erat in princípio,
et nunc et semper,
et in sæcula sæculórum.

Amen.

She became the Mother of God, in which work so many and such great good things are bestowed on her as pass man’s understanding. For on this there follows all honor, all blessedness, and her unique place in the whole of mankind, among which she has no equal, namely, that she had a child by the Father in heaven, and such a Child . . . Hence men have crowded all her glory into a single word, calling her the Mother of God . . . None can say of her nor announce to her greater things, even though he had as many tongues as the earth possesses flowers and blades of grass: the sky, stars; and the sea, grains of sand. It needs to be pondered in the heart what it means to be the Mother of God.

(Commentary on the Magnificat, 1521; in Luther’s Works, Pelikan et al, vol. 21, 326)

Welllllllllll Whoooop T Dooooo

Cry me a river or go suck on your binky rosaries.

Y’all have raged at Proddys in the most haughty, harsh, unwarranted and condemnatory terms from the beginning of FR. It is still the Vatican Cult’s obsessive FR habit and addiction to do so.

Y’all can stuff y’all’s duplicitous outrageous double standard horrors in y’all’s nearest white hanky closet.


BTW, ALL,

I understand that NW_Arizona_Granny is reportedly on her last hours or days . . . I don’t know what the link for her prayer thread is . . . if someone does, please let me know.

AND, my Dad is at a rehab hospital in Prescott. He’s still in constant atrial fibrilation and expected to have another massive stroke any moment. They can’t put him on any blood thinner meds for several more weeks. The bleeding in his brain has reportedly stopped. He has had some of his vision return—unexpectedly.

PRAISE GOD FOR YOUR CARING AND PRAYERS.

The Lord called a very beautiful woman with an unspeakable beauty, like all those I saw there, and He told me: “This is Mary! Go and tell every body that Mary is not the Queen of heaven. The King of heaven is I, the King of kings, and the Lord of lords; the One who says: “I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIVE. (John 14: 6-7). Go and tell this BLINDFOLDED MANKIND that there no purgatory, for if there was one, I would have shown you. Instead, there is hell, the lake of fire, the precious Jerusalem, and the paradise which I showed you. But tell them that there is no purgatory; tell them that IT’S A LIE FROM THE DEVIL, THERE IS NO PURGATORY”.

—The Lord Jesus The Christ

as told to Bernada Fernandez

Jesus founded Catholicism. Thank God.

A slight aside, one I have no doubt will get me at least one flame:

I would like to stop focusing so much of our attention on Quix. I doubt anyone will listen to me, but please consider the stress it puts us under, what it does to others who would otherwise listen and read and benefit, and how much of our energies it wastes that could be better suited to our other duties and entertainment.

I will always stand with and support my Roman Catholic friends and family, much as you have all welcomed this lonely little Anglican in, but it is very troubling to see so much turmoil brought on by our frustrations with the posts from someone we are not reaching anyway. It only serves to bring us more grief from the anti-Catholic minds of Quix and Co., and it takes us away from far better focuses of our attention.

Do as you will. I will still be with you. But I hope we can make a concerted effort to give less legitimacy to the anti-Catholic nonsense Quix spreads.
