Convert ASAP

​@@catholicconvert2119some of us can't do that, for solid theological reasons. But I agree. This is a remarkable channel. The Protestant analog to it on KZfaq is the channel of Paul Vanderklay. Protestants watch this. I suggest you give Paul Vanderklay a look.

Former Presbyterian here. When you decide to cross the Tiber, you're going to love it on the other side. :)

I went to a Presbyterian group for years myself and it was a relief to finally become Catholic

​@@Electric_....well, realistically, some people feel they were strongly damaged by dogmatic, and at times, hypocritical catholicism. AND this can't just be swept under the rug. For the church to move forward, there has to be accountability.

These are tools. The Holy Spirit guides us and we guide what we watch and apply the Word to what we accept or is acceptable and what we should reject. If you have a weakness (most of us do) rely on a trusted, Christian friend(s). Don’t be alone.

Romans don't have values.

Wouldn’t it be great if we had a Catholic channel that we could be confident of its content 🙏

​@@Jac-pd1fo...like the one Mother Angelica started on television.

Convert the Protestant !

Gotta visit ❤

Catholics need to be on it but to be a ladder off it

KZfaq puts an anti-christ warning on this video, saying murdering children is a medical procedure. There is Christ or anti-Christ. Raising The Dead back to Life, or supporting eugenics, slavery and death to all. Most Christian views are criminalized by Federal Law & it will get worse...

@@catholicconvert2119 I don't understand. What does that mean?

@@user-71435 meaning be there intentionally just to witness the faith not to hang out and become absorbed into the borg

I would say he means Facebook, Instagram, tik Tok and X it's a cesspool of depravity gossip and idoltrilism

Perhaps lumen Gentium - but even that denies heaven, at the most purgatory for Muslims. Without baptism it is even harder for me to get to the point of acceptance for even purgatory.

​@@DavidCraig-hd1rj Strictly speaking, baptism is necessary for salvation. But there's a but. Are you willing to hear me out? I'm in communion with the Church and subservient to Christ. May God spare me from committing any mistakes. I say this in case you think I'm in dissent. I am not. Or that hell does not exist, or I want to cheap out the absolute necessity of the Church. Again, I'm not. I read some of the Church Fathers on this and looked into recent and traditional interpretations, regarding salvation to the unbaptized. It seems to be almost unanimous, if not dogmatic, to hold that cases do exist where someone unbaptized would be saved. The one example everyone agreed on, is salvation was also for martyrs that were unbaptized. This was especially talked becuse the proto-RCIA (so to speak) in the Early Church lasted as long as three years. One may very well be martyred before baptism. It was named the baptism of blood. To this were included those who were willing, or even on their way, but died due to circumstance, sickness, or old age, before the baptism was carried out properly. This was named baptism of desire. But another instance was brought up and, unlike the others, it was much more controversial. What if someone misunderstood the tenets of the faith? What if someone has never even heard of the faith? St. Augustine argued that no such people could exist by his time. Or so he thought. The discovery of the Americas brought back this matter into the table. And here comes that weird Bible verse where St. Paul says that among the Pagans the commandments are written in their hearts, and will be judged according to their conscience. I say it's weird because it seems to contradict the other verses about salvation. Not to mention, there's Christ saying that if the Pharisees were blind, they'd have no guilt. Or "Father forgive them, they know, notnwhat they're doing." What shall happen to people in undiscovered lands? So all in all, the position that the Church seems to have taken, at least implicitly, is that: It may be possible. Kind of a non-answer but there's that. I'd be glad if I go to heaven and see, idk, a Muslim village girl from the depths of Pakistan. But I wouldn't be too surprised.

Amazing how people have accepted the Censorship over God's Word.

I report feedback on these infanticide warnings everytime.

@PMacKing good idea! I get so tired of these "warnings".

Lol

That's awesome! My ancestors are from Wicklow!

Satan is part of christian mythologies making such worshipers devil worshiping Christians.

I was LDS most of my life and I totally feel you. I was just baptized and confirmed this Easter and it's the best choice I've ever made.

I get it he is pushing christian behaviors as pagan.

The traditional approach of the Catholic Church is the doctrine of inclusivity- being that the church accepts all truth wherever it is found. So other religions or denominations are respected for their truths, while their falsehoods are rejected. Like most things in life, it is nuanced. You can say Islam or LDS is demonic in its beliefs and practices that are false and bad. However, there is also some good in them, e.g. to pray to God, to give charity, fraternal support etc. and it is the good in them that probably attracts people's loyalty. They are imperfect in contrast to the Catholic Church, which is the perfect way to salvation.

Same for me. I was baptized and confirmed this past Easter and still haven't told my mom. I really don't understand why she converted to Mormonism, and don't want to bring it up.

@TheCharlie1701 It's not worth it to say anything until you're ready to handle the reaction. I can't discuss God at all with my parents. It always ends up going down these paths that require them to analyze the biblical faith apart from the BOM, and they won't do that. So I said that we will not discuss God. Sad but keeps the peace.

Wow! I am very pleasantly surprised to hear that. It doesn't match the dystopian view of Ontario that I sometimes have as an Albertan, especially post-covid. Amazing though! God bless Petersborough!

They teach students at the colleges and universities to practice neo-paganism

How can you solve a problem when blaming it on gods and devils? Problem avoidance is a real thing.

If you stand up for the faith you will be tortured by the political activists. You will be attacked at work, at home, everywhere you go. You will be blocked from help and left for dead. People have been conditioned not to care about the real state of things. They have been conditioned to treat it with indifference so much so that they will completely ignore what you are saying and continue on like you never said anything. They made it so people cannot process any news that isn’t toxic positivity.

Is that going to happen? They tend to be pacifists and prefer to just pray. Also, they Scapegoat certain issues while Ignoring the entire picture.

I have recently vowed to tell the truth boldly, clearly, and publicly. Hopefully that does some good!

That sucks. I will pray for your niece.

God bless your work. You are also needed in chat rooms and radio talk back etc.

+JMJ+ Praying for you, your family, and your niece. I’ve been offering up my Holy Communion at every Mass I attend that all souls run to the crucifix and joyfully accept the holy, precious, and perfect purity, body, mind and soul who is our LORD JESUS in the most Blessed Sacrament. HIS Holy and Blessed Mother and St. Joseph accepted joyfully and faithfully CHRIST’S holy, pure, and precious, and perfect purity. Praise be JESUS CHRIST, Our SAVIOR and KING!

He's just telling you what you want to hear -- non-Christians scary, etc.

@@EnglishMike He is doing a opposite.

Praying for you.

Brother, the Ordinariate is a tremendous treasure that enables us to come into the fullness of the Catholic tradition with our patrimony. I highly recommend looking into it!

It would be better if the would rename them ‘St Patrick’s’ and ‘St Mary’s’.

Hmm I never thought about it that way but the idea that they are lik Ouija boards makes sense.

I have had no issues with AI after praying over it.

@Wully02 That's honestly a good idea! I think we have to approach the tools with a lot of skepticism, but they can still be used where appropriate. There are too many people that put way too much trust in Google and don't know that the search results are heavily biased and they seem to get more biased every year. But yeah if you treat AI or Google like it is all knowing, then you are worshipping it in a way.

He is finally becoming aware of the spirit of anti-Christ which is becoming more obvious everyday. Knowing Christ reveals anti-christ. Jesus saves and heals, anti-Christ does the opposite. Jesus raises the dead to Life. Social Media's creators goals are the opposite.

Sounds like your diocese is giving the one I live in and the one in Nebraska some blessed competition! We have Catholic schools full of Catholic kids, ordain several new priests every year, have about 60+/- in seminary total, a thriving order of nuns who just build a new convent (they wear habits)… we had a short term group of benedictines move here- but oddly they picked a non-catholic area to locate, which hurt them, and they moved elsewhere. Most churches are full of families and kids. And no deaconate, because we have enough priests! (Wichita Ks...) Northern KS has SSPX- and just built the Immaculata church.. I think St Mary’s KS has a decent Catholic community as well. I’ve heard Nebraska diocese still doesn’t allow girl alter servers and is pretty traditional for a US diocese.. but I haven’t been there. I’ll have to look up Evansville diocese!

Have you looked into the People of Praise and their company of missionaries in Evansville? I've been there and it's a amazing vibrant community extending into the poor neighborhoods.

Both are Intel digital weapon systems, facebook says it is feeding all it's collected data into one A.I.

Agree! I’ve learned so much about the Faith on here! I put headphones on and listen to Fr Rippenger, Pints, Taylor M, stories of St John Bosco and various other Catholic points of view, instead of NPR… which is becoming more clear to me, to be secular propaganda.. And I watch or listen to them in the evenings instead of regular tv… It’s helped feed my soul which craved ‘more’ than the weak sermons and minimal church activities… I started attending First Saturday Masses (it was my New Year’s resolution last year) and going to Latin Mass that used to be close to where I lived. (It was canceled with all the rest- sadly). I seek various Latin masses when I travel to larger places that have SspX or Fssp. So have found you tube to be a blessing! (I used to listen to CA and EWTN but when they were promoting the jab, I stopped. The use of fetal cells to develop them nauseates me) 😂 apologies for my novel, but I find much beauty and joy in being able to search past the junk and find Truth and open discussions sharing wisdom and different points of view, so lacking elsewhere!

How come this person sounds mentally ill?

We Pagans created the modern practice of celebrating solstice and equinox. Clearly you don't get out much. We do these celebrations all the time. The Beltane in Scotland this year had some 8,000 people. They weren't all Pagans but many were.

I find that evil has hijacked anything good and beautiful of God, and try to twist it in a negative way… and claim things God created in a negative way. Reclaiming things in a Christian manner and squashing any pagan claim… which isn’t ever true or accurate.

@@j2muw667 People have been celebrating solstice in Pagan ways for dozens of centuries before Christianity even existed.

​@@kenofken9458larpers! How many do you presume actually worship any pagan deities and how many do you think are doing what op describes?

@@whatever1068 If we're all just silly LARPers, why all the concern about it? Catholics and other Christians spend a lot of effort and mental processing time on our existence and activities. They wouldn't do that if they thought we were just another version of the SCA re-enactors.

He is doing a opposite.

I don’t think it’s worth the risk of losing your children to the world. Our biggest priority is forming our children to be strong, devout Catholics. After a while, they care less about what mom and dad say and more about what the cool kids at school are doing. I think it’s better for young families with children to remain in a Catholic community and leave to proselytize.

@@gladtradcath reread what I commented, I’m literally talking about a Catholic school at a parish we attend and are actively a part of. It’s a false dichotomy that seems born out of fear and not being willing to fight to preserve ground we’ve gained within cities. I’m not saying you need to attend umm parades of the rainbow variety downtown but you also don’t need to abandon outposts we still have. And yes I’m purposely using military language

Kind of like Lot living in Sodom or Gomorra (I forget which it was) where all was evil around his family…?

@@j2muw667 not analogous to Christians as God was establishing Israel as an entity apart from paganism at that time, Christ’s Kingdom is historically one of subversion in the midst of hostile regimes. Did the apostles abandon Rome as it became the center of Christian martyrdom under Nero or Diocletian? No, they survived and remained a “field hospital” to quote Pope Francis, bringing whoever was willing to hear testimony into the Kingdom. While others went out to even more inhospitable places to preach and establish churches, in many cases among even less civilized societies. Some may in fact be called specifically to be removed from the world and the missional battlefront but traditionally we think of those called to religious life for those roles.

@@j2muw667 Hm. I may have misunderstood what you were saying with that comment lol if so my bad. I jumped on where I think that thought leads to as in the Genesis account Lot and his family are called out of the wicked city in order to preserve them from God’s impending wrath. Is that where you were going with it?

What book?

What's the name of the book??

The title of the book starts with Pagan America

I feel the same way.

If you were snoozing, you clearly weren't paying attention.

Same difference

He said injest not drink

He's almost there... It is not necessaryly "Pagan" , but more accurately exposing the spirit of Anti-Christ. Jesus Christ Raises the dead back to Life. Anti-Christ murders babies by abortion, sterilizes young people and commits acts of genocide. Will to Power. Eugenics. Social Darwinism. God Creates the cosmos & Satan's goal is to destroy everything God creates.

In a Monastery or Convent.

Our Duty is to bring Christ's Kingdom to Earth. The Bible, the Traditions, the Mass, the Culture, the Faith. Loving Jesus and one another, even loving enemies, to conquer them with YHWH's Love.

Good thing we aren’t called to live in a bubble

I thought it was all about Catholics priests having sex with little boys.

too cliquey.

youtube puts abortions ads on this video, their A.I. system has a sense of humor ? :-D

Ah yes, the extreme toil of forcing around 200,000 Jews to convert to Catholicism under pain of exile, and the forced expulsion of up to another 100,000 Jews because they refused to convert. Oh, and of course, founding the notorious Spanish Inquisition. Is this the type of thing we have to look forward to from today's Catholic Church?

Latin has no articles. Whether "the" was intended or not I'll leave to the professionals.

Yeah but... God allowed the Hebrews to remain in Egypt of 400 years. And then the Babylonian captivity. 1500 years of being conquered by Muslims for the east....

I agree. Christians need to stop daydreaming about completely separating from the world. We don't need to box ourselves in and away from the world. We need to go out into the world and evangelize as our Lord commanded us to. Instead of running away and letting depraved cultures take over all the power we leave behind, we need to reclaim what we can for God. I'm a software engineer, and I see daily how horrible technology gets. The solution is not to drop all technology and go back to medieval times. The solution is to use technology for good, just as depraved people are using it for evil. If it weren't for the internet, I would not be a Christian.

Tarot cards are just cards. There's nothing spiritual or demonic about them. People read into them whatever they want to read into them -- but that's just human psychology, not demonism. Tarot card readers use cold reading and warm reading practices to sound plausible to their customers, even if they believe they have psychic powers. You can learn a lot about a person by asking the right questions and listening carefully to how they respond.

Me too. Live in Simpsonville.

No it wasn't. The vast majority of Germans were Christians during Hitler's rise to power. Dissatisfaction with the post WW1 settlement (ceding territory to France) and hyperinflation paved the way for the rise of the populist right wing Nazi government to power.

God bless you

If it’s possible for God to do this to your life, then hope is not lost for others in that situation, right? I hope you use what God has done to your life to help others get out of that situation as well. 🙏

Same, although LinkedIN is just like social media a lot of the time

Catholic YT is the redeeming feature of the internet.

Theoretically is right. Because their “god” denies the divinity of Jesus Christ. Impossible to reconcile.

Thank God!!! Welcome home… seriously, I’m so glad you’re in the CC. :) You’re absolutely right; it’s getting really, really bad out there. I can tell from all the New Age/pagan media, yoga studios, turn to marijuana and psychedelics, etc. Hope to meet you and your loved ones in Heaven!

Still a Pagan and happy. Your inability to morally reason is you own, not that of Pagans generally.

What a beautiful, fantastic conversion story! I can see that the hardness / toughness of Viking-type paganism can appeal especially to men (even those I know and love!) who have been conditioned by movies and games. I don’t think they have any understanding of the cruel horrors that hide behind the facade.

@@Antonia_D Christians have slaughtered more people than the Vikings ever even dreamed of doing.
