Only positive comments can be made.<br />Another mantra used within parts of the Church that “God loves you and nothing else matters” likewise leads us into a decline in our Faith.<br /><br />Our Lady when She appeared at Garabandal specifically stated that 'Many Cardinals, many bishops and many priests are on the road to perdition and are taking many souls with them'. I am sure similar warnings from Our Lady have been made at other times and occasions as well<br /><br />This latest report for Pope Benedict, from what is being speculated by investigative journalists and published by the Italian press, seems to allude to some homosexual cabal in the Vatican. One source close to the Vatican speculates that this report may well include not a negative list of those involved but ONLY a positive list of those who can be trusted. <br />If so, then the new Pope will have this list to start with and should he wish to deal with the problem, all options are open,<br />Was it not Pope Paul VI who said that 'The Smoke of Satan has even infiltrated the Vatican' and if true, it is now becoming increasingly evident in our days?<br />Are the accusers of Cardinal O'Brien of a similar disposition? <br />We can be assured though that Our Blessed Lord will be with us until the end of time and the gates of hell will not prevail.<br />Kevin Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05338712555372904705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276480891318347779.post-43703074851210204872013-02-27T12:49:51.134-08:002013-02-27T12:49:51.134-08:00Father you are quite right.

They want no criticism, they demand approbation and the say those that differ are intolerant. Behind it all is the constant battle between good and evil. I was shocked that Catholic Voices(Vallero?) praised homosexual Catholic clergy who do a good job - they should never been allowed entry to priesthood with a deep seated tendency (Vatican guidance states this). I work with homosexuals and lesbians in my work place and hope I am as kind to them as others but I would not state or indicate approval of their lifestyle choice. We have the right to choose Christ even if others have sunk to "fair is foul and foul is fair" ( the three witches - Macbeth.fidelisjoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12126244525059161896noreply@blogger.com
