fides quarens intellectum Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 [quote name='dUSt' timestamp='1282364615' post='2160924'] Here's how it works. Church Scholars and other Church Militant use this thread to nominate phatmassers [/quote] So, since I'm not a tag member, I'm not supposed to nominate anyone in dUSt's thread. I was wondering, would any of you who do have the flag take a minute to nominate someone who could easily get overlooked? Cherie Madame I don't know her personally, but just based on her posts, she clearly has a strong love of Mother Church, and is making a strong effort to lead a life of holiness according to the Church. Besides, she discerned with a good religious community, so her theological formation is sure to be solid. Could someone please nominate her who already has a flag? She's not a member of the PM in-crowd, but I really think she's someone very deserving of the Church Militant tag, so I'm really hoping she gets included with this current campaign. Thanks so much! Peace in Christ, -fides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laudate_Dominum Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 [quote name='mcts' timestamp='1282415534' post='2161103'] I don't know that Apo can be a CM, since he's Eastern Christian. [/quote] What is the reasoning here? The Eastern Catholic Churches are just as Catholic as the Roman Catholic Church. Unless phatmass is officially prejudiced against non-Roman Catholic Catholics I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] It was not that he believed he didn't accurately represent what that tag meant. But that others with the tag didn't accurately represent what that tag meant. Since said individuals professed grave teachings counter to Church teaching on a certain subject(s). Pax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dominicansoul Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 honestly, i dont' think any of us live up to that tag.. lol...except maybe a very rare few... but it's good to try to live up to it, though.. if anything, that's something to have it for... and mcts, don't feel bad... when I first logged into phatmass... i had no idea what religion Apo was!! It's just another example that we certainly do need to learn a lot more about the Eastern Rite "lung" of the Body of Christ on earth... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
