This picture was taken 3 years ago. Most (some?) of us were filled with optimism and anticipated a wonderful pontificate. A humble man (he carried his own luggage) was the new visible leader of the Catholic Church. Slowly, at first, our expectations remained unfulfilled and we were treated to something completely different than what we had hope for. A man who, when he took office, seemed endearingly informal — paying his own bill at his hotel, refusing to live in the Apostolic Palace, making surprise phone calls to members of the public — now cuts a less sympathetic figure.
The traditionalist blog Rorate Caeli suggested that ‘ageing or an underlying medical issue’ was responsible for his ‘persistent anger, rancor, use of uncouth words (which is known to be increasingly frequent in private)’.
Bergoglio divides the church into those who are with him and those who are against him — and if he thinks you’re in the latter camp then he’ll come after you,’ says a priest who works in the …More

Gosh, in Liverpool? Would the Liverpudlians appreciate this, or are the ICKSP priests seen as just an anachronism? Well, the very small congregation of old folks seem to tell us that it just might be an anachronism there....

People could tell Reagan spoke the truth. That he was down to earth and wanted the best for the common good of the people. What a difference from the one who now presides in Our White House.

If promoting same sex relationships is considered acceptable by our school systems and our government then it must be time to promote prostitution and orgies. We no longer need to have PG-13, R, or X rated movies. Our children are being exposed to that stuff in the classroom why even warn parents about those movies. Parents are not allowed to keep their children from being exposed to this stuff in our schools. Why give them the option to do it at the movies?
While I'm at it, let’s get rid of the overhead of running two separate organizations (Boy Scout and Girls Scout organization) when one will do the job better and cheaper. All we need is a Scouting organization. If it's okay for gay boys and lesbian girls to camp and play together why aren't we allowing straight girls and straight boys to camp and play together?
I'm tired of this world bending over backwards for the so called minorities and then punishing the majority. If it's good for the goose then it's good for the …More

Everything must be restored in Christ. With the 60's revolution and all that followed..abortion..divorce..contracepting..homosexuality..etc. All we can do is pray that we do not loose our faith as times become worse and harder to cope. Thanks Remnant for continuing to spread the truth. We can never give up hope.

I won't use the word "ministers" in describing the lay people who distribute communion...I'll always refer to them as "lay distributors". The Only ministers are the priests.

Well parish priest, just be grateful your arch bishop is not "cardinal" schoenborn of Vienna as he promotes active homosexuals in his parishes and slaps down any priest who dares challenge people living lives of sin.
What this pair have been promolgating beggars belief if they have "friendly" priests in the four or five parishes that you cited.
The church, sadly, is full of judas "priests" who support this sinful, misguided badness.

A shame that history was distorted and re-written, since it was international jewry who cause the entire WW Ii to happen, with two main goals in mind: the establishment of Israel as a nations and the creation of the united nations, a world authority who could condition the world into following jewish ideologies. There are many poofs as many different personalities wrote about this huge deptions. Hitler persecuted the jews because he, for years, was the victim of world jewry attacks. Jewry thought Germany could provide them with Palestine. Read the works of Viscomt Leon de Poncis, or father's Dillon "grand orient, freemasonry unmasked", or father faheys "the kingship of Christ and the conversion of the jews"...read nesta Webster "secret societies", or William guy carr "satan, prince of this world..there are many books out there proving that it has been the synagogue of satan and international jewry who has been conspiring to form the reign of the anti-Christ....freemasonry, capitalism …More

It must make things difficult when this certain Chapter (Cleveland) is trying to, not only defend life before birth, but also after, as God intended it to be. I hope they continue in prayer and fortitude to defend the rights of the child. If we cannot do that, we are not Catholic. They should be congratulated for the work they are doing, and for not caving into any pressures as the NRTL has. We need to pray for them.

By the way, who's this obsessive nutjob that has made 100 posts in row this morning on another thread.
You've got no manners nor respect for this internet site, you douchebag.
I complained about the jerk and hope they throw his ignorant monkey a$$ out of here.

Maybe the old lady was already sauced?

The Breakdown of the Family is The Cause of Abortion

As long as the vatican is so stubborn about the canonization of Pope Pius XII, we the Faithful before VII KNOW he is a saint... No pope since Pope Pius XII can even "tie his sandals". Sorry, but it is true and he was the last "example" of Catholic Charity.
Would he participate in the "Assisi fiasco?", Would he distribute Communion in plastic cups?? Would he give out Communion in the hand? Would he deny the Faithful the Tridentine Mass?? There is not enough space to continue the list.
MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE!!!!

No more FINANCING OF TERRORISM by the Curia?
Pope Francis is a strong disciplinarian.

These "bishops" prancing about before Mass show their lack of spirituality, leadership and abilities. If ever I needed convincing that the Church is in crisis, this pathetic little display dispelled any doubts.
Almighty God, please send us bishops; men of faith and steeped in lives of prayer, filled with your Spirit and His gifts. Amen. (and free us of the numpties).

Doesn't take away from all the abuses within the church.. sexual, liturgical and heretical. Instead of prancing up there, they should be deeply concerned about the salvation of those souls! And their own!
