The headline just seems so inspirational, doesn't it? "First Lady Michelle Obama urges young people to lead Africa's future." Well, what young people? The ones that escaped the clutches of the abortionists - you know, the ones that both Mr and Mrs Messiah Most Miserable celebrate and support. Seems rather hypocritical, doesn't it?
I need not rehash all the ways that Obama and his Minions Most Mindless have acted to enshrine abortion in this culture; you can read that elsewhere on this blog and the web. What never fails to sadden me is that such posturing can take place on Catholic property - in this case, in Regina Mundi Church in Soweto. What also saddens me (but does not surprise me in the least) is that the editorial staff of the Catholic Standard see fit to waste newsprint on this tripe. There was no need for this to be printed, as it has absolutely no relevance to affairs in the Church of Washington. Oh, wait! I forgot! There is that flattery element, isn't there? See why we bloggers are so needed?
It would be nice if the coverage were even balanced, but the God of the hierarchy (and their scribes and pharisees) is money and that's who they worship. I have a friend who attends this church and I listen to the sermons on the internet. What a difference there would be in my church (and in our politicians like Pelosi, O'Malley, Cuomo, Murkowski, Kerry, Collins, et al.) if we heard such plain teaching on abortion and homosexual marriage and what believers MUST do in response (see 7/3 sermon):

I wonder if the Standard will cover this:

The Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception
Saturday, July 9, 2011
2:00 p.m. Mass Our Lady of Czestochowa Chapel
Joseph Cardinal Zen Ze-kium, SDB
Bishop Emeritus of Hong Kong
Please, alert your readers to pray for China with His Eminence.
Please don't get me started on the National Shrine. I wrote a long letter to Monsignor Rossi voicing my concerns about the daily sacrilegeous behavior of those who attned Mass: cameras going off, children screaming and running up and down the aisles as if at a playground, people talking before during and after Mass such that it is impossible to concentrate and pray. Mass is now an endurance test. In the letter I sent I offered solutions. The Monsignor's response? I kid you not: "Thank you for your note". This is what happens when to our churches and our clerics when priests no longer believe in the real presence and no longer believe in sin.
ReplyDeleteThe Catholic Standard, in the July 7 edition , has announced that "Sister" Sandra Schneiders will be giving a talk 7/14/11 at the Washington Theological Union at 7:30 PM. No time to answer my note. Plenty of time to adverstise the upcoming scandal of heretic "Sister" Schneiders.
Kyrie Eleison.
Maria
Maria, thank you for the "heads-up" on Sister Sandra. A brief Google does reveal some probematic aspects about her career. I will be looking more into this.
