I second the motion here; withhold all contributions to the Archdiocese.

It so happens now that I repeat to myself the obscure phrase of Jesus in the Gospel of St. Luke: 'When the Son of Man returns, will He still find faith on the earth?' It so happens that there are books coming out in which the faith is in retreat on some important points, that the episcopates are remaining silent and these books are not looked upon as strange. This, to me, is strange. I sometimes read the Gospel passage of the end times and I attest that, at this time, some signs of this end are emerging...Are we close to the end ? This we will never know. We must always hold ourselves in readiness, but everything could last a very long time yet...What strikes me, when I think of the Catholic world, is that within Catholicism, there seems sometimes to predominate a non-Catholic way of thinking, and it can happen that this non- Catholic thought within Catholicism, will tomorrow become the stronger. But it will never represent the thought of the Church. It is necessary that a small flock subsist, no matter how small it might be”.

The religion of the God who became man has met the religion (for such it is) of man who makes himself God. And what happened? Was there a clash, a battle, a condemnation? There could have been, but there was none." -PPVI, 12/07/65<br /><br /> http://www.ewtn.com/library/PAPALDOC/P6TOLAST.HTM<br /><br />Once the door is opened, who will be able to close it?Stevenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9695096.post-918635820420795422011-01-17T06:02:25.052-08:002011-01-17T06:02:25.052-08:00This decision by Cardinal O'Malley is anything...This decision by Cardinal O'Malley is anything but genuinely pastoral. It is an act of violence against children who will be placed in a schizophrenic situation - one environment which teaches homosexual behavior is wrong and another in which it is celebrated.<br /><br />Perhaps that is EXACTLY what the Cardinal wants? I see the hand of J. Bryan Hehir behind this devilish policy. Boston is in moral crisis.

It is my belief that Boston is now in de facto schism from the Magisterium. I will be attending a Latin Mass in Central Massachusetts.BostonCatholic2011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9695096.post-29035010991605553912011-01-16T12:49:45.118-08:002011-01-16T12:49:45.118-08:00Because of this decision, I will be taking my two ...Because of this decision, I will be taking my two children out of their Catholic school after the current school year is finished. And I would exhort others to do the same. We just cannot trust the Archdiocese any longer. I am strongly considering homeschooling at this point.BostonMagisterialCatholicnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9695096.post-47999533865241407032011-01-16T08:39:03.174-08:002011-01-16T08:39:03.174-08:00I like this: "..a true education must strive ...I like this: "..a true education must strive for the integral formation of the human person." Integral means entire, complete or whole. How can a child receive an integral formation if his parents are engaged in gay or lesbian sex? Your question hits the proverbial nail on the head....how can Catholic schools partner with gay or lesbian parents who are not committed to the Church's teaching in the area of human sexuality?<br /><br />How can light and darkness agree? Doesn't the Scripture say this?<br /><br />Bizarre.Jonathannoreply@blogger.com
