  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I don't why, but my anger at Modernists and cafeteria-Catholics seems to be coming back. I just think about how dishonest and fraudulent they are, and how they're denying poor sinners the precious gift of healing and liberty that comes from a loving relationship with Jesus Christ which they reject as "rigid" and a whole bunch of other things. And they call Jesus a liar for saying the Truth will set us free.

I need to talk to Our Lady some more, and consider what blessing it is that I slipped through their tyrannical fingers, and am now in loving relationship with the One True God. When I'm calm and at peace, I'm going to try starting that plan I mentioned being inspired by, when I posted that YouTube video, "The New Jansenism"

Please pray for me.

Take it to the Lord in prayer, but before you thank God for making you better than someone else, keep the following scripture in mind. I find this keeps me humble and convicted of my own shortcomings rather than prideful in what I've been given.

Luke 18:9-14

9 To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everyone else, Jesus told this parable: 10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.’

13 “But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’

14 “I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

Okay, I've calmed down, sorry about that, that just came out of left field, I've got to stay on guard for those kinds of things.

I have started working on that idea I mentioned above, I might have it finished by tomorrow if not, Lord willing I should have it finished by Saturday. For anyone curious about that "New Jansenism" Video I mentioned, see here: The Legalism of Modernism vs the Mercy of Traditional Catholicism!

You may simply take those thoughts as devil's temptations, he might want to waste your spiritual energy. It's better to spend those time talking to Our Lady.
