Cam42 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 [quote name='CatherineM' timestamp='1303602026' post='2231566'] There's a line in "Shoes of the Fisherman" where they talk about the number of absolutions the Pope requires after death because as a greater man, his sins would have been greater as well. [/quote] Be careful with that, I don't want you to get into the same kind of "trouble" I'm in. I don't want anyone to think that you might be speaking of the Pope negatively...we can't do that here...it's a no no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cam42 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 [quote name='Lil Red' timestamp='1303621564' post='2231650'] [/quote] This is all kind of petty isn't it....sheesh. It's almost like a witch hunt...looking for a reason....it smells of elderberries being 100% Catholic... I'm using the phishy tag as a badge of honor, btw...if by being 100% Catholic I get the phishy tag, then I embrace it fully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lwangaman Posted April 24, 2011 Author Share Posted April 24, 2011 (edited) I love his first homily: [center][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgjaVv2--rI[/media] [/center][center] [/center][center][url="http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/john_paul_ii/homilies/1978/documents/hf_jp-ii_hom_19781022_inizio-pontificato_en.html"][size="4"][b]Homily October 22, 1978[/b][/size][/url] [left][font="Times New Roman"][i][b]Brothers and sisters, do not be afraid to welcome Christ and accept his power. Help the Pope and all those who wish to serve Christ and with Christ's power to serve the human person and the whole of mankind. Do not be afraid. Open wide the doors for Christ. To his saving power open the boundaries of States, economic and political systems, the vast fields of culture, civilization and development. Do not be afraid. Christ knows "what is in man". He alone knows it.[/b][/i][/font][/left] [left][font="Times New Roman"][i][b]So often today man does not know what is within him, in the depths of his mind and heart. So often he is uncertain about the meaning of his life on this earth. He is assailed by doubt, a doubt which turns into despair. We ask you therefore, we beg you with humility and trust, let Christ speak to man. He alone has words of life, yes, of eternal life.[/b][/i][/font][/left] [/center] Edited April 24, 2011 by Lwangaman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
