Catholic sites are boring. All Catholic like to talk about is the liturgy and the church seasons. Anyway, I’ve been here about 9 years longer than you :)

Funny, I have heard Catholics make that same sort of report about attending a Catholic Church.

Communist used to be viewed in America as being a Bad thing, and American participants moved about in secrecy.

Today the term has been widely accepted as "renamed", taught, flaunted, encouraged, promoted and widely accepted....WITHOUT the "students" every having bothered to OPEN the "Manifesto" and Comprehend the Big Picture of where they are heading.

The "frog in the Pot" scenario.

God Bless,
Taken

Nothing subtle about submiting to Putin

Keep demonizing people who you disagree with Reggie - it makes it a lot easier to ignore the abomination you elected into office

Odd to charge someone with demonizing, encourage them to continue, while you also demonize a man u do not know.

Interesting.

Perhaps that is so.....but have to say, I am not familiar with Protestants sitting in pews for YEARS listening to a Sermon in a Language foreign to them that they could not understand. Have known elderly people who were Catholic, attended Catholic Churches their whole life and for many years never Understood a lick of Latin, to which YEARS of Sermons IN Latin were presented and they sat quietly in the pews.

Yes he does. No double talk or guessing what he is saying. Perhaps you are not educated in the number of Communists and Democratic Socialists in the Federal Congress and Lesser State Congresses. Dropping the Name "socialist" from USSR did not Change their MOTTO, and Americans Adopting the "socialist" agenda DOES undermine the structure of Government that was designed by the founders.
Freedom is OUt...Freebies are IN !
Not exactly rocket science to figure out it is all about moving the wealth from those who Earned to those who Didn't. People buy the lie....Equal Wealth...LOL...open eyes...It's equal DEBT...and And at any time the DEBT can be called in....and Whoopie...all will be equally BROKE ... and scramble to be first in line for their daddy (govt) to take care of them. Whoops, they're broke too....but no matter....they still yeild "power"....when the govt power is not enough to keep one in line....there is always the gun power ... that is being encouraged to NOT be in the hands of the people. Laws, Laws, Laws and more laws....seriously...get those guns out of the hands of the People! Lol Whoopie the Socialist Agenda!

Appears you are unfamiliar with Diplomacy...
But using your your words....What exactly did "some" un-named person "submit" to Putin?

Oh sorry, did you miss the apolgy tour Trump took to Finland? Apparently, you are unfamiliar with diplomacy if you think secret meetings, praising the turning over of US diplomats to Russia, and kissing the a$$ of our enemy.

Yeah, you do need some education. Democrat socialist has nothing to do with Russia, which is an autocratic state that used to masqurade as communist. Neither have anything in common with Nazism which also has the word socialist in its title

Awesome! Not so sure it is still there...have not been to Canada since having to have a passport or a special license...and I do plan on getting that enhanced license! I miss Canada! Been there many times. Oh gosh, yes...Good old Columbus Hosp. (long gone now) My dad was born there and my eldest sister had a child there-I had stitches there one time...Oh how everything has changed in Buffalo with the Healthcare field. All the Catholic Hospitals merged and all the secular ones did as well, so what we have here now is Catholic Health System (which I worked for for the last 23 years of my working life) and the other monster is called Kaleida Health...I loved my job but, when the merger came along in 2009, things got way worse...I missed my Sisters Hospital so much...but the changes were constant so I decided to work at the satellite sites for the rest of my working life there. I sure did miss the people I knew as I was in every nook and cranny in Sisters and got to know many people on the floors, units...so...there are no more stand alone Hospitals in Buffalo anymore :/
I worked as an R.P.N. (L.P.N) at St. Joseph's Hospital for a few years. With cutbacks, I foresaw ridiculous workloads so I quit.

Homilies have never been given in Latin. Please educate yourself before you try to be clever -its embarrassing

Yes. This is true. Some of our congregants bring food and drinks into the pews...talk on cell phones throughout the service. I am surprised my pastor has not talked to them about it. They ar simply going through the motions...and several that I know of, still remain the same as they were before becoming "saved". No growth. Sad.

can't recall you ever referring to anything but Scripture tho Aspen, and you are unoffendable as well. i tried :D
my meaning was more like 'if (you) are here to insist that the Catholic interp is the only legit interp, then why are you really here.'
