The rich and the politically powerful will be buried with dignity as they always have. When they express false concerns about "environmental land use", they're talking about everyone else.

No wonder at all. They're jealous. When was the last time European governments spent tax-money to renovate the Vatican for His Holiness? Fairly certain it was,,, when? A few centuries before the discovery of electricity? :D Now for the big question... does the patriarch get his own Pope-Mobile? :D

hitherto We were there at the end of April, last month, (2019), and the information I have about origin: The oldest documents concerning the Holy Blood of Bruges date back to 1256. The Holy Blood probably was part of a group of relics of the Passion of Christ preserved at the Imperial Museum of Bucoleon in Constantinople (modern Istanbul). In 1203 Constantinople was besieged and conquered by the crusaders. Baldovin IX, Count of Flanders, after being crowned as the new emperor, sent the relic of the Precious Blood to his native country at Bruges.

There is a remarkably easy solution for the Church here. Denounce the teachings, excommunicate the heretical clerics, annnnnd... strip them of all financial support. That last one is critical.. Sister Berchmans will be the president of a "catholic" school publicly refuted by the Archdiocese of Washington as being heretical and not in communion with The Catholic Church. Many Catholic families who take their faith seriously will withdraw their students. "Sister" Berchmans and her followers will be forced to live entirely on the profits of their remaining enrollees with zero outside stipends from the Diocese. Faced with the brutal realities of actually working for a living like the rest of us, it won't take more than a year before this worthy nun, has a "miraculous" visitation from some celestial messenger and tearfully recants her false beliefs.

Technically, this is a piece of political 'grandstanding' since any OB-GYN doctor opposed to abortion can simply say (most likely truthfully) they are not specialists, or trained, or qualified to conduct an abortion. An OB-GYN doctor receives a general knowledge of the procedure during their education, but like any other surgery, it takes specific apprenticeship to learn. Not all OB-GYN doctors go this route, especially the pro-life ones. Put another way, an optometrist may be an expert physician in diagnosing imperfections, diseases and physical defects in the human eye. But -when- they find the latter they refer the patient to a surgeon who specializes in correcting it. The best such a law could do is "demand" that pro-life OB-GYN doctors provide a referral. For Catholic physicians that's easy to do without violating their faith. "You want a referral for a doctor to kill your child? Here's a free copy of the Yellow Pages Phone Book.. Abortions are under "A" Child-Murder should be …More

As @Jungerheld correctly notes, this is a man wearing a priest's collar, which isn't necessarily the same as him being a priest. Like Idi Amin, some people are obsessed with claiming valor they never earned. Longtime Democrat supporter, "Airborne Willie" is a legend in American politics. i.imgur.com/zlY05in.jpg weyrcat.files.wordpress.com/…/photo_110308_00… The Leftist media, which has already gleefully destroyed several people's professional and personal lives for shooting criminals of minority ancestry conveniently chooses to withold the full force of their public scorn on such shennanigans.

Butler'sLivesoftheSaints JULIA was a noble virgin of Carthage, who, when the city was token by Genseric in 439, was sold for a slave to a pagan merchant of Syria named Eusebius. Under the most mortifying employments of her station, by cheerfulness and patience she found a happiness and comfort which the world could not have afforded. All the time she was not employed in her master's business was devoted to prayer and reading books of piety. Her master, who was charmed with her fidelity and other virtues, thought proper to carry her with him on one of his voyages to Gaul. Having reached the northern part of Corsica, he cast anchor, and went on shore to join the pagans of the place in an idolatrous festival. Julia was left at some distance, because she would not be defiled by the superstitious ceremonies which she openly reviled. Felix, the governor of the island, who was a bigoted pagan, asked who this woman was who dared to insult the gods. Eusebius informed him that she was a …More
