Soft porn author Tucho Cardinal Fernández rejected on Tuesday in a doctrinal note the Marian title of “Co-Redemptrix” but also of “Mediatrix of all Graces”. The note is entitled “Mater Populi Fidelis” (Mother of the Faithful People). The reason given is this: "This title risks obscuring Christ’s unique salvific mediation and can therefore create confusion and an imbalance in the harmony of the truths of the Christian faith". Sixty years after Vatican II, endless Vatican word salad and the Synod on Synodality, the most ironic and iconic phrase in Tucho’s document is this: "When an expression requires repeated explanations to prevent it from straying from its correct meaning, it does not serve the faith of the People of God and becomes unhelpful." The Co-redemption and Mediatrix theology has been taught for centuries. In 1908 the Vatican’s Congregation of Rites expressed the wish that -- “the devotion of the Sorrowful Mother may increase and the piety of the faithful and their …More
"Whence God, wishing to repair what was wanting, made a flood, and bade righteous Noah go up into the ark. He, as the flood abated, sent forth first a raven, which did not return ; then he sent forth a dove which, we read, returned with an olive branch. Thou seest the water, thou seest the wood, thou beholdest the dove, and dost thou doubt the mystery ?"
[St. Ambrose – IV Century AD; Augusta Treverorum, Gallia Belgica, Roman Empire/Mediolanum, Italia, Western Roman Empire – Resting Place – Crypt of basilica Sant’Ambrogio – One of the Great Four Latin Church Fathers – Doctor of the Church – made Bishop by popular acclamation] “Chapter III - The operation of the Divine power in baptism is illustrated by Old Testament types. 8. What sawest thou? Water, to be sure, but not water only ; levites ministering there, the high priest questioning and consecrating. First of all, the Apostle has taught thee that we must not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen : for the things which are seen are temporal ; but the things which are not seen are eternal. For elsewhere too thou readest that the invisible things of God from the creation of the world are comprehended by the things which are made ; his eternal power and divinity also are understood from his works. Whence also the Lord himself *says, If ye believe not …More

Sorry, but there is nothing to learn from Islam - a false religion. Can you image the Blessed Virgin Mary wrapped up so you could only see her eyes? No. She is the model and example for modesty for ALL women. The over veiling of women is a way for Muslim men to control their women.

In this passage from his work Moralia (on the Book of Job), Pope St. Gregory the Great teaches that all who die as unbelievers and without the sacraments of the Church are not saved. Like other saints who address this matter, as part of his exposition he cites John 3 about how one who does not believe is already condemned. Pope St. Gregory the Great, Moralia, Book 26, Chap. 27 (#50): “Of whom the Prophet says, The ungodly do not rise again in the judgment. [Ps. 1:5] And of whom the Lord declares, But he who does not believe is already condemned. [John 3:18] And of whom Paul says, They who have sinned without the Law, shall perish without the Law. [Rom. 2:12] Therefore even all unbelievers rise again, but to torment and not to judgment. For their case is not then examined; because they come into the presence of their strict Judge, with the condemnation already of their own unbelief. But those, who retain their profession of faith, but have not works in accordance with it, are …More
