  • This doesn't look like anything close to being Catholic...

    Let me know how many of these people still go to "Mass" and call themselves Catholic a year from now...

    Pope Francis Approves Mayan Mass, Opens Up Liturgy In Indigenous Languages Tzotzil And Tzeltal

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/01/07/pope-francis-mayan-mass_n_4557206.html



    The Catholic Church has officially recognized the liturgy conducted in Mayan languages Tzotzil and Tzeltal, seven years after the Diocese of San Cristobal led the call for the Vatican to accept it. Pope Francis approved it in October 2013, and now mass and important Catholic rituals like confession and baptism can be officially conducted in the two indigenous languages.

    This is of huge importance to the southern Mexican state of Chiapas, where San Cristobal is located. 65% of the population of Chiapas is native Maya, and most of those people speak little Spanish, though it is the official language of the liturgy along with Latin.

    The Right Reverend Enrique Diaz, auxiliary bishop for San Cristobal, told the BBC that he partly credits Pope Francis with making this landmark change. "Undoubtedly Pope Francis has brought a fresh approach," he said. "Even though there isn't such an indigenous presence in Argentina, he has spent time with indigenous communities and understands us well."

    Tzotzil and Tzeltal are spoken by an estimated 650,000 people, reports Catholic News Service.

    Bishop Felipe Arizmendi Esquivel of San Cristobal said that the Pope's approval of the native languages "is a source of great joy and hope for our people, as it gives confidence that their language is recognized by the Church."

  • I started to ask when is he going to formally accept the voodoo/Catholic blends from the Caribbeans.  But they're probably too Catholic for him.

  • Next he'll approve a mass in Klingon using costumes from Star Trek.
    Club sandwiches not seals.

    Failure is always an option.  Just not always the best option.

  • Then a couple months later Rome said that SSPX is is in schism and is to be denied Sacraments.

    And yet baby killers, rapists, thieves , liars, sodomists,
    Pedergasts, and other hypocrits are all welcomed.  


    Someone should send copies of the Baltimore Catechism books along with Archbishop Lefebvre movie.  

    Rosary intention for Rome to covert back to true Catholicism.  
    Rosary intention for Rome to repent and do penance.
    Rosary intention for Rome to get rid of liberals, communists, perverts.




    May God bless you and keep you

    I thought the costume he's wearing in the pic in the OP was from Star Trek!
    "This principle is most certain: The non-Christian cannot in any way be Pope. The reason for this is that he cannot be head of what he is not a member. Now, he who is not a Christian is not a member of the Church, and a manifest heretic is not a Christian, as is clearly taught by St. Cyprian, St. Athanasius, St. Augustine, St. Jerome, and others. Therefore, the manifest heretic cannot be Pope." -- St. Robert Bellarmine
