Padraig There was no way that of myself I could have known there was going to be a rainbow over your church at the time of writing to you. This was not a sign of the power of the pink brigade but of the army of God led by His blessed Mother and Michael the Archangel to cover, protect and defend His Church. Let me finish with a quote from the author of a previous article quoted above, a quote that also represents my position: "I am a Catholic because Catholicism is true. It is not a little true. It is not some truth mixed with error. If I wanted that I definitely would not be here. I am a Catholic because the Catholic Church is the only place you will find the fullness of truth. It is for Truth that I became a Catholic, and it is for Truth that I will die a Catholic....... I knew that the Catholic Church is protected by The Holy Spirit from ever teaching error.... That was a key moment for me, the realisation that I am not the arbitrer of Truth. The Church is guided by the Holy Spirit. I am not the Church's teacher. The Church is my teacher..... Can someone tell the apologists that Vatican II happened." Neither would I presume to be your teacher Padraig but I feel your attitude to Pope Francis needs drastic revision. He is building on Vatican II which we are told from Garabandal was a great and a good council. As Padre Pio wrote to the seers "they do not believe in your conversations with The Lady in White but they will believe when it is very late." We need unity to survive well. Survival of the Church is guaranteed by Christ Himself but is surely better to survive well. I have prayed that you, like Joey, will receive new eyes through which you will see the beauty and goodness of The Way as shown by Pope Francis. Again it is no coincidence that a member has recently posted about the Camino; The Way whose route passes very close to San Sebastian de Garabandal a place that is very close to my heart and a place that is about to come into its own.
Is that you, Joe?Your IP addresses show you are coming from New Zealand. , rather than the UK. You are a one. Free man indeed. Reminds me of, 'The Fields of Athenry'. Congrats on holding the old temper so well though. You are coming on.
Funny, Mac just said I reminded him of an old friend called Joe. Curiouser and curiouser. Could this be the same Joe to which you refer? As you see from my IP addresses I am presently in New Zealand. I will be returning home shortly though it is beautiful here.
I am glad you are enjoying it. Perhaps you will call to see your fellow forum member Mac when you are out there. I believe you know the way.
You can come back to the forum if you do not be ranting and raving at people, loosing your temper al lthe time and snalpping at folks like a turtle . If you could do it as Viv Freeman you can manage it as Jore Crozier. Come back, but for goodness sake behave. No snapping.
Sadly my work schedule does not allow time for social calls. But I would if I could. As with most vehicles mine has sat nav so finding my way would not be a problem.
I see who you think I am but his name is Joe Crozier not Jore Crozier. Unless if ciurse that is a typo. I believe snapping turtles come from Australia not New Zealand but I may be wrong. Not my field. No more time for this banter, engaging as it may be. On with my work.
Viva freeman. "Long live the freeman." Classic. (Did no one else notice this from day one? That the very screen name is itself a "challenge" to "authority?")
Would you please take a breath and quit fighting with each other? The Year of Mercy. Charity. Love. Forgiveness. We are not each other's enemies. Pope Francis is not our enemy. Padraig is not our enemy. Joe Crozier is not our enemy. We have enemies on the prowl all about us but it's time to circle the wagons and stand together. Identify and focus on our true enemies: 1)Skinny legs and his minions doing his deeds here on earth 2)Hillary Clinton and her gang of schemers 3)Barack Obama and his gang of miscreants 4)Most of the entrenched elite politicians Repubs and Dem alike 5)The globalist elite leaders in Europe (don't know their names, I'm an American) 6)Planned Parenthood and any associated politicians pushing the culture of death through abortion 7)Those promoting porn and deviant behavior through mass media to make it seem acceptable to our youth 8)ISIS and the radical Islamists hell bent on destroying Christians and Jews 9)Communist China, Iran and associated evil doing govt's around the world etc. Those are our enemies, focus on them and hold on tight to your brothers and sisters around us. Don't you see that evil seeks to divide us, in order to conquer us?
The A stands for Allenby. Its a generational name. Why would this be a challenge to authority? Is this a conspiracy theory?
Wow - looks nasty. I have just googled it. Seems it comes from America and Canada. I like the Yanks. Not at all like this little terror. I like Churchills take on us Brits and Americans: "Divided by a common language". I think we may be even closer than that. Look at Charlie's command of English for instance. None better. Formidable. And that's French too. Canadian French perhaps. Liberte, Egalite Fraternity. Oui, vraiment formidable. What fascinating characters people MOG. Glad to be here.
I don't know if you are our Joe or not, but you are very welcome. I'm enjoying your posts anyway although I agree with some of them and disagree with others.
You are the most shocking chancer Joe. I hope you have not gone transgender or I shall have to put new toilets in the forum just for you.
If I have offended soneone please let me know my offense. I unreservedly express my regrets for this in advance even though my offense is As yet unclear. If for some reason I am not welcome here also please let me know. I will not burden you with my presence. I have altered my account settings due to this strange development.
