No other U.S. bishop has diverged so openly from his brother bishops on sensitive issues, or so obviously ignored the protocols of collegiality, than Lexington’s John Stowe

All that we say, all that we achieve will be to lead us and draw people to salvation in the Lord’s life. Let’s read a few times what Peter says in this little text and we will have a synthesis of the purpose of our faith: “That the genuineness of your faith, more precious than gold that is perishable even though tested by fire, may prove to be for praise, glory, and honour at the revelation of Jesus Christ. Although you have not seen him you love him; even though you do not see him now yet believe in him, you rejoice with an indescribable and glorious joy, as you attain the goal of (your) faith, the salvation of your souls.” 1 Peter, chapter 1, verses 7 to 9 All that we say, all that we realize will be to lead us and lead people to salvation in the kingdom of God. As soon as we direct our life to make it pleasing to God, we also help our neighbour to discover the purpose of life. We walk on the path of holiness. This passage from Peter is revealing: “As you attain the goal of (your) …More

When it comes to sexuality, the Church's magisterium and Christian anthropology "must" adopt the "latest findings of science", the German bishops' representative for the pastoral care of homosexuals, Auxiliary Bishop Ludger Schepers of Essen, told Tagespost.de (4 June). Schepers confuses science with homosexual propaganda. According to his theory, humanity is "not" male and female, but rather an "ellipse with two poles" with "the possibility of what lies in between". He should admit that he could only get away with such a fantasy among some media activists in decadent Western countries, not in the rest of the world. "With this model I remain in the bipolarity of the sexes and still have the possibility to include these people in the image of humanity". Schepers claims that there are people who are born in the "wrong" body. He thus revives the old Gnostic ideology that the body is a prison for the soul: "I have met them. They are stories of suffering". In the end, these people have "a …More

He simply follows the instructions of the Second Vatican Council, which, of all the sciences, specifically ordered the adoption of two, which are more famous than others for their false teachings: "sufficient use must be made not only of theological principles, but also of the findings of the secular sciences, especially of psychology and sociology, so that the faithful may be brought to a more adequate and mature life of faith" ("Gaudium et spes", 62).

Liturgical solvent of faith Die DBK und ihr Führer Bätzing der angebliche Bischof vom Bistum Limburg ist eine Versammlung von Häretikern. Sie sind die von Bergoglio vorgeschobene Gruppe um umzusetzen, was später in der Nachäfferkirche Besetzter Raum zur Gültigkeit wird. Unter Führung von Lehmann und Kasper, waren sie die Gruppe die einen großen Anteil am Ämterraub von Bergoglio haben und hatten. Im Jahre 2013 erklärte Bergoglio er setzt nur das um, was seine angeblichen Wähler (Auftraggeber) von ihm erwarten.

From a comment under the article at LSN which bears reflection: “ Mexico had a Jewish head of State in Mexico in the 1920s when Plutarco Elias Calles was in power. His ancestors were Sephardic Jews from Spain. And he was also a FreeMason. Calles instigated the Mexican Civil War through laws that secularized society, and persecuted the Catholic Church. So many Cristeros died for their faith. Including Jose Sanchez del Rio. This 15 year old boy wanted to die for Christ. But First he was tortured. The US supported the regime and indirectly had financial interests in the Persecution.”

During his visit to the Montorio prison in Verona on 18 May, Francis claimed that "the figure of Mary is a figure common to both Christianity and Islam". He added of Our Lady that "she unites us all", which is not true since Islam denies that Our Lady is the Mother of God. Raymond Ibrahim points out on LifeSiteNews.com (31 May) that the Vatican is trying to convince "Catholics" through conferences or publications that Islam is a "sister faith". To do this, it recasts biblical figures with entirely different, anti-biblical attributes. For example, Islam presents the Virgin Mary as "married" to Muhammad in paradise. In a hadith included in the corpus of the famous Ibn Kathir (1300-1373), Muhammad declared that "Allah will marry me to Mary in Paradise". Saint Eulogius of Cordoba, a bishop and martyr in Muslim-occupied Spain, wrote: "I will not repeat the sacrilege which that impure dog [Muhammad] dared to utter about the Blessed Virgin, Queen of the World, Holy Mother of our venerable Lord …More

I'm no fan of divisive characterizations. Reverence for The Blessed Mother IS a bridge by which to evangelize the pagan Muhammadans. Consider the weight of the miracles of the sun wrought in conjunction with Our Lady of Fatima, "Fatima" of course being the revered (by them) name of Muhammad's daughter.

Yeah, Mohammad -the murderer, thief, liar, rapist, and child molester-most likely in hell- is not the greatest man who ever lived. No, we have very little whatever in common with Islam, except what little they stole from us. Mohammad and his buddies USED our religion to subjugate people in conquest.
