"It is plainly wrong to meet non-Catholics with bitterness or to treat them with discourtesy. For this is nothing else than the reverse of Christ's example because it breaks the bruised reed and quenches the smoking flax." - St. Peter Canisius
@Oremus01@RorateCaeli It seems to have been the only door located between the Sforza Chapel and the Pauline Chapel. So far, I can only find floor plans showing a small room. Not sure if there was another way in. Interesting question.
@MementoMoriMike@briankeepsworth Brother, even the J.E.* acknowledges that the hexagram was adopted by the (Kabalistic) Jəws from occult mysticism, centuries after Christ. Our Lord is certainly the definitive Son of King David -- but this infernal sigil has nothing to do with Holy David. *https://t.co/H2BQp6jJBp
Better that only a few Catholics should be left, staunch and sincere in their religion, than that they should, remaining many, desire as it were, to be in collusion with the Church's enemies and in conform with the open foes of our faith.

@CatholicKingdo1 Or, please God, it was not consecrated, and the man was just lying (or ignorant) about the Black Mass for theatrics/publicity/scandal etc.
@CatholicKingdo1 It's odd, though: the Host is about the size of the palm of his hand, like a Priest's Host, not the smaller Particle for the faithful. Is a parish somewhere distributing priestly-sized Hosts [cost prohibitive], or do they have an apostate priest supplying the Sanctissimum? Or-
You should avoid not only bad, but useless books. You could not waste all your time with an idle man without becoming like him--an idler. So if you waste your time on useless books, your knowledge will be just like the books--useless. ―Baltimore Catechism No. 4, 372A
@CauseofourJoy@kennedyhall Bp. W, RIP, spoke very highly of the Jewish race as an excellently talented & naturally cultured people. His crime was purely academic: he pointed out inconsistencies in the popular historical narrative. Even if we grant that he erred factually, still, he was not racist.

@BasedHarun @LambofGod75 @Bug_Hall Please, brother, do not spurn such a work of mercy, "For with the same measure that you do mete, it shall be measured to you again." The Lord does not will "that any perish, but that all return to penance." We ought to will the same.
