Ping!
Merry Christmas FRiend.
They have excommunicated themselves by their beliefs and actions. You can remain true to the Church regardless of them.
Answer for your own soul, in other words, not theirs. (Thank Goodness!):)
Lies and myths? By whose authority are you pronouncing them lies and myths?
I think it might be your own personal viewpoint rather than a historical or liturgical viewpoint? Am I right?
Sorry, I meant dike.
The regular bigot’s will be here in under 10 posts.
Merry Christmas to you!
Such a shame that the spirit of Christmas that should unite us all in the glory of His birth is lost on such people.
Have seen the ad a couple of times. It makes me happy and I hope other Catholics who have fallen away are like me and find their way home.
Agreed.
May His joy fill you this year.
We’ve got extra missalettes and cue cards with the new translations all fixed up for our overflow room that will seat about 40. Otherwise, people will fill out vestibule (about 30) and after that — line the walls.
I wonder why we are in the process of designing a new church. Haven’t gotten to the Capital Campaign part of it yet.
The fight was really more between the Templars and the King of France, who had the church under his thumb at the time and used it as a tool to punish the Templars.
There fixed it for you

Would you mind citing specific lies or myths that you think you saw.
Many years ago one could enter a Catholic Church in Hamburg, Milano, Positano, Marbella, or anyplace in the world and understand what was happening: THE MASS. After all, Catholic means universal!
Today, a Novus Ordo Catholic hasn’t a clue what is going to happen when he travels from his neighborhood church in the Bronx to San Juan Capistrano: it’s all different. The environment in many cases is different. No more soaring gothic-style columns and vaulted ceilings; rather, it’s a place that rather resembles an aircraft hanger.
Peering about there isn’t a hint that this is a Catholic Church. There is no tabernacle, visible confessional, pictures, statues of the saints.....why this could be a Seventh Day Adventist meeting place.
Now the Vatican, as a sequel to Vatican II has changed the religion once more. The mass and prayers have been rewritten and parishioners once more struggle through something new that replaced something old, but something that was good enough for over 1,000 years!
The mass was guaranteed in perpetuity but that made no difference to the modernists. They threw baby and bathwater through the stained-glass windows. They were killing Christ’s Church on earth and will have a great deal of explaining to do before they learn their eternal fate.
AMEN! The priest misses an excellent 'teachable moment' when he ignores the Scripture readings in his homily.
Wonderful, Mrs. Don-o.
Wishing you and Don-o a most blessed Christmas and New Year!
