I think I take a different perspective- Catholics ought to stay away from Hollywood brand humanist flavoured Christianity. What pathetic creatures are we if we want to go to anything "Christian flavoured" come on- we are Catholics, we aren't obsessed. We are real people who live as...

we don't worship the pope and his infallibility is reduced to limitted circumstances.

I think the film looks tacky, I would ban it as a mockery of the Catholic faith. It places Christianity and the Christian God in the category of patheticness.

Catholics can't be stopped from visiting seers where the Bishop has given no statement to the contrary. I don't think the appartions in SA are true from the accounts I have read I would guess that the young lady has had some encounter with the divine. It is wonderful that the girl seems to...

now it is on google video and can be seen in the full 34 minutes. http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=8692594844677653682&hl=en-GB

Let me just add a few small points- 1) a large crowd of people condemned Padre Pio when he was alive. Strange enough to say, a large crowd condemned Fatima also. 2) In terms of quantity- The approved apparitions of Divine Mercy are a larger quantity of message than Medj 3) In terms of...

St Irenaeus the Bishop of Lyon in about 170ad writes: "But since it would be too long to enumerate in such a volume as this the succession of all the churches, we shall confound all those who, in whatever manner, whether through self-satisfaction or vainglory, or through blindness and wicked...

yes, please post links to it elsewhere. As for the number, it is contained in the description. I will have a look at trying to make it more obvious if I can.

Thanks, much appreciated. Hopefully others will have things to add ;)

Hello, I just thought I would give a link to a video I have made and put on YouTube- it is on the subject of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Islam and how Mary seems to be the means by which Muslims are to be brought to a full recognition of Jesus Christ. It is in 4 parts, it is my first attempt...

A friend of mine has told me not to buy it.... as he has bought it for me as a gift for when I get back from uni. I read the good samaritan in the Herald the other week- it was very good- presenting the true understanding of the parable- the understanding everyone would have told you before...

I do wish that people would say "this is my opinion" rather than as if they were stating theological facts or the Church's teachings. Many fathers of the Church would tell you that Moses wrote the Pentateuch- I would agree with these holy fathers. As for the babylonians- well, if creation...

The fathers and doctors of the Church like St Ambrose look at this issue in great detail. looking at the words of Christ are a great explanation. He is restoring things to the way they should be regarding polygamy, "in the beginning it was not so"- God, in the beginning created man to be...

a good and early source for Catholics on Islam is St John Damascene, he writes around 700 and gives an explanation of Islam as a heresy from Christianity. I would love to respond to some of th crude presentations of the crusades as a plot by monarchs for trade purposes with the ability of...

I think its the future, Faith and Culture on EWTN had something on this issue the other day. Many people believe its the next logical step from gay marriage. We also may have communal marriages where lets say 2 men and 3 women exist in a marital union communally. I think natural law is in...

The Church teaches that anyone who dies and is judged whilist in the state of mortal sin goes to hell. The question is not do they go to hell but are there deeds mortal sins? Whenever the sin of adhering to a protestant belief is mentioned as a mortal sin people are quick to say "but...

Interior life for Catholic finds its source and summit in the Holy Eucharist.

It is excellent that Catholic kids are taught to defend their faith, it is the true faith founded by Christ Himself and ought to be defended. Hopefully you will be able to have your misconceptions addressed about Catholicism by the other kids in your school. Then, hopefully you will...

Well he is only PM for another month or so. But he has done great damage to the Catholic Church and the concept of a Christian society while in power. Civil Partnerships (the legal equivalent of gay marriage), supporting Euthanasia by ommission, sex education being promoted everywhere...

Faithful Catholics suffer with the Church as they read this outrageous material. Wine wine wine. No wonder Our Lord has to put up with so much! We must all make acts of reparation for the outrageous offences Our Lord receives in the Eucharist. To think that the Blessed Virgin appeared...
