Be on your guard. Personally I would not watch this film or its various follow-ons. Why should we line the pockets of the aetheists with agendas who roll out this constant drivel as pretence for entertainment!Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13031618301013986930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-39811591239690949532009-11-25T03:57:21.982+00:002009-11-25T03:57:21.982+00:00Dimbo,

There was a vogue for muddy pale colours, here a brown, reddish, violet.

Here in the United States, a Priest cursed his congregation for some stupidity on their part. It lasted sixty-five years, until the succeeding congregation did much penance, and then asked the Bishop to lift the curse. He did so. <br /><br />Proper Baptism is a Sacrament with commands from the Priest taking that soul from Original Sin to the Kingdom of Heaven. There is nothing symbolic about it. Let us not demean our Priest. They are alter Christus.<br /><br />A Protestant friend was commenting how great his Church was to live in. I told him Holy Mother Church is the only one to die in. Extreme Unction from our Priests opens the doors of Heaven wide for our souls to enter.<br /><br />While we men do things that displease God, we crucify Him everyday in our sins, thank God we have women who can drag us into the gates of Heaven by their Faith, and prayers on our behalf. Hopefully, these Italian mobsters the film portrays were given the grace of true contrition upon their deaths. The Italians in America have financially supported Holy Mother Church, and are responsible for the building of many beautiful Churches across America. Many Italian families sacrificed more than they could afford that we may have a worthy place for the Blessed Sacrament.<br /><br />Padre, not all the Angels in Heaven or all the Saints therein, can bring God from Heaven as you do when you say the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.<br /><br />Your authority is not symbolic.<br /><br />With the assurance of my Holy Rosary prayers for all your good work in the vineyard of the Divine Master, I remain yours truly in Jesus and Mary Immaculate.<br /><br />*Pablo the Mexicanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09384415590309803327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-25366682825072012752009-11-24T15:36:59.748+00:002009-11-24T15:36:59.748+00:00Patricius,
