Willing To Die For Christ???

  • Less than 10 people from Immaculate Conception in Post Falls showed up for the Bishop Williamson conference where His Excellency was preaching and teaching the Word of Truth.  

    The 1670 that didn't show up....what kind of cowards are you?  You probably believe yourself capable of dying for Christ.  But you can't even risk social ostracism to show up for a 2 hour conference?  Afraid of having communion denied?  That's called martyrdom.

    I spit you out of my mouth.

  • This is a filthy OP.

    For one, you assume ill will on every traditional Catholic who wasn't there without any regard for their circuмstances.

    Ten people is underwhelming to say the least.  Certainly a disappointment.  My sympathy to His Excellency.  But Bp Williamson isn't Jesus Christ.  How dare you paint a brush across Catholics who weren't there as if they were traitors unwilling to die for the faith.  And how cowardly and disgusting to do it anonymously like a little punk.  It's probably good you did it that way, because I'm sure it'd keep a lot more people away from the conference if they knew you were going to be there.  You should apologize.

To all, friends and foes alike, give that serious attention which does not misrepresent any opinion, does not distort any statement, does not mutilate any quotation. We need not fear to serve the cause of Christ less efficiently by putting on His spirit". (Vermeersch, 1913).

  • Where do you live and how many children do you have?

    I'm trying to gauge the proper level of praise I should be directing you, proportionate to how difficult it was for you to attend.  What kind of bow would suffice?  Which hand do you want me to kiss?  Is there a particular knee I should genuflect on?

  • "Strict Observance"?

    I know a thing or two about sales & promotion and can assure you that this was poor and very lazy branding.  Your whole value proposition is messed up, disjointed, has huge unknowns and potential supporters have no practical way in 95% of cases of getting to a Mass said by one of your priests.

    If the theatre does not fill up, you cannot blame the audience.

    I appreciate religion is not a business, but people are people.  You ignore their self-interest at your peril.

    Wow!  Only ten people were at his conference?  I am very surprised.  I would have loved to be there, but traveling from Indiana to see the good bishop at this time was out of the question.  I would have thought there would be many more people at the conference.

  • Consider there were only 3 people at the foot of the Cross.  

    everyone else ran and hid.

  • I am not even a trad, and if Bishop Williamson were this close to me I would go hear him.
    Stir up within Thy Church, we beseech Thee, O Lord, the Spirit with which blessed Josaphat, Thy Martyr and Bishop, was filled, when he laid down his life for his sheep: so that, through his intercession, we too may be moved and strengthen by the same Spir

    Well who was in charge of promoting the event?
