I just saw the public discussion about Vance, not baptizing his children as infants.
To my Catholic Brothers and sisters, you should schedule a baptism as soon as possible for your kids.
One reason among many is the spiritual protection of your child. When we trace the cross on their head and claim the child for Christ, every demon, every angel can see that mark.
It matters.
For my brother priests, I beg you
in the name of Jesus, stop prohibiting baptism until parents jump through hoops.
I buried an infant this week whose pastor refused baptism for them. Enough with trying to control and protect yourself from feeling used.
Enough with the nonsense of “protecting the sacrament”.
Jesus doesn’t need you to protect him, but he does need you to protect the souls of these little ones.
If parents come to you seeking baptism for their child, you do it.
@realsedepicante@Catholicizm1 If I ever think of entertaining sedevacantism, your profile picture will pop into my head, I’ll have a little laugh, and remember how unserious it is… thank you
Franz Joseph, the quintessential Habsburg, and Theodore Roosevelt, the epitome of New York, met when TR came to Vienna in 1905. The former president asked KFJ what his role was as modern Monarch. “Protecting my people from their politicians,” he said.
@noel_debien@MatthewJLB@CforCatholics You realize Fr Tuscan was a missionary there (living with the people) and knew the Caps who evangelized and converted New Guinea in the 50s when cannibalism was still ongoing?
@dianemontagna The only time the word “sin” appears in the group 9 doc is “Authority must not sin by omission: in a synodal church, pastors and those who exercise authority cannot evade the responsibility of initiating processes.” 😂😂😂
Father Chad Ripperger: "How is taxing a man more than what God wants not defrauding a worker of his wage?"
"Where did the goverment get the idea that it is entitled to more than 10%? God doesn't even want more than 10%. Where do they think they are better than God?
