“If you believe what you like in the Gospels, and reject what you don’t like, it is not the Gospel you believe, but yourself.”
A civilization inspired by a consumerist, anti-birth mentality is not and cannot ever be a civilization of love.
No one is forced to be a Christian. But no one should be forced to live according to the "new religion" as though it alone were definitive and obligatory for all mankind.
To live without faith, without a patrimony to defend, without a steady struggle for truth – that is not living, but existing.
That Christianity gives joy and breadth is also a thread that runs through my whole life. Ultimately someone who is always only in opposition could not endure life at all.
I certainly hate to agree with Cardinal Marx on anything but I can do no more than agree with him that Amoris Laetitia is very clear when it comes to the heretical position on Holy Communion for adulterers. Any lack of clarity has been cleared up with Bergoglio stating that "there are no other interpretations" when the question came to him from his native Argentina.
The confirmations in the Tridentine Rite in Copenhagen fills my heart with immense joy.
These truly are the seeds of a Christian and Catholic revival.
Bergoglio homosexualises and protestanises again....It must be Monday.
I shall not even muster exasperation this time. This kind of scandalous behaviour has come to be expected of this evil man.
