so your "holiness" got here yesterday on IRS tax return day; wonder if there's any significance of it..... anyway, i like this pope. i like this pope because he is a REAL catholic....! he is going to bring catholicism back to the roman catholic church. he will do this because that is his mission, he believes. he can do it because he is a theologian; he knows, upholds and will speak out on traditional catholic beliefs...! now, we will know the true "distinctives" (ie,differences), the incompatibilities between evangelical christians and catholic "christians." both sides are pretty fuzzy and confused about their own and each other's faiths. the pope will be outspoken about catholic theology. hooorrrraaaaay!!!! the pope desires to right the wrongs of the resolutions of the 2nd vatican council of 45 yrs ago. this just became a dream come true since the pope was at that council when he was the 35 yr old father joseph ratzinger who was present then as a theological consultant! well, u should read a little about the 2nd vatican council; i can't get into it here; at least, not now, not today. ultimately, he wants to go back and uphold the council of trent. wow, can't believe that was made public! wowo. go read up on the resolutions of the council of trent!!! so the pope visited DC today and went to one of the biggest catholic churches in the world; forgot which, but u google it. and guess what? one of the 1st thing when he entered the church was to go in front of the idol of mary, knelt, prayed for about a couple of minutes (i'm sure to her; wonder what he prayed?), and crossed his heart (to die). hmmmmm. what's up with that? oh, yeah, he's catholic; they believe there's some supernatural, extraordinary human power marry possesses (ie, mediatrix.... look up the theological meaning of this word!). anyway, i like him; i like him a lot! much better than the liberal pope john paul 2. so bring back, awaken the confused catholics about what traditional, conservative, fundamental catholicism is! it will help and straighten up protestants and so called evangelicals as well. does this all matter?? does, not drinking "cool-aid" matter??!! u betcha.....! 2 thumbs up for this "holy" "father" pope...!!!  |
