Like i said regarding the other incident.

Would you personally go and celebrate the victory at lepanto in a a mosque... ask yourself why that would not be acceptable and you will have your answer

Then ask yourself what the muslim response would be and you will have your answer to if these catholics over reacted

Celebrating the victory at Lepanto, a great and glorious victory by the way, in a mosque might get one killed. Certainly beat up.

Beyond our own fears of repercusion it would be a very insensitive disrespectful and distasteful thing to do

But you do answer the 2nd question about the muslim reaction vs the catholic reaction.

They are goading us and mocking us in our own parishes and they are invited to do so by our own traitor priests

What is also shocking about the video is that the congragation are more incensed by those peacefully praying the rosary than by a woman gyrating herself disrespectfully infront of our lord in the tabernacle

They were disrupting the service by praying he Rosary out loud.

The service was approved by the Bishop and it was not only disrespectful to the people at the service to disrupt the service, it was disrespectful to Our Blessed Mother to abuse the Rosary in this way.

The devotion of praying the Rosary is to move us closer to God and not to be used as a weapon to drive others away.

The Rosary is a weapon in the spiritual warfare against the evil one.

It's not to be a weapon used against people trying to pray together in a ecuminical service.

What they did in the video is a disgrace to the Blessed Mother's intentions.

That is your opinion and your entitled to it. But it is my opiniom the disgrace was the ecumenical captitulation service and those who approved it and that the rosary was not only a restrained action but the perfect action to take... thats my opinion and i am entitled to it

Yeah and they could of physically attacked those offending them and who could of blamed them... but their action was restrained

They could of prayed in silence but it would not of expressed their opposition they used the rosary to keep their own restraint and make their displeasure peaceful and prayerful.

If pro lifers physically attacked abortionists who could blame them.. they could pray the rosary in silence outside instead of disturbing the legal and approved practices inside they do not need to use the rosary as a weapon but they do and its a better weapon than their fists or worse
