Luigi Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 (edited) I have recently been in contact with a newly founded order and I want to spread the word about them for others who might be interested in discerning a possible vocation. They are an active order of men, the Congregation of Divine Retribution. Their charism is vigorous defense of the Church through forceful attitude adjustments inflicted on those who slander the Pope, clerics, or religious - all done in a spirit of charity and reconciliation. In recent weeks, Brother Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse has had a confrontation - Sorry, I mean a consultation - with Maureen Dowd, Brother Destruction of Sodom & Gomorrah has met with AOL's news editor, and Brother Separation of the Wheat from the Chaff has dialogued with the management of The New York Times. Thanks be to God, the Divine Retribution, as they call themselves, is growing rapidly. The Superior General, Fr. Plague of Locusts reports that four brothers will make final vows this summer - Brothers Cleansing of the Temple, Righteous Anger of the Lord, Cursing of the Fig Tree, and Mortification of the Flesh. If you want more information, contact the Vocation Director, Fr. Vengeance Is Mine Says the Lord, at the Divine Retribution motherhouse in Jericho, NY.

HisChild Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Could you JUST imagine some of their nicknames during recreation... and if they were outside, say, playing volleyball, the things the neighbors would hear? And if they heard their REAL names said out loud, because of course you know that all religious should have Mary as part of their names, it'd sure put the fear of the Blessed Virgin in the hearts of all those protestants for sure.

Do they exist? I would think they'd be called the Sisters of Mary, Crusher of the Serpent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HisChild Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Do they carry swords along side of their rosaries? I'd really love to see their habits. I can see them on horseback, in long red robes. Smiles should be forbidden too. This is a SERIOUS community with a solemn mission! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HisChild Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Nah. I wouldn't be that name if I were you. You shouldn't fear the demons. You'd be giving them too much power. You should be Sr. Mary SLAYER of Demons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
