That Mark Twain quote about people not wanting to admit they were deceived is coming out in full force these days. My goodness.

There is a large Padre Pio statue in the back of the Post Falls chapel. I find that to be intellectually schizophrenic. But then again, didn't the SSPX make a statue of Lefebrve for the facade of one of the portico's at the Immaculata?

How do you mean?

And

Mark Twain :laugh1: What an enormous loser (he was truly deceived)

Twain was a Presbyterian.[178] He was critical of organized religion and certain elements of Christianity through his later life. For example, Twain wrote, "Faith is believing what you know ain't so", and "If Christ were here now there is one thing he would not be – a Christian".[179] With anti-Catholic sentiment rampant in 19th century America, Twain noted that he was "educated to enmity toward everything that is Catholic".[180] As an adult, Twain engaged in religious discussions and attended services, his theology developing as Twain wrestled with the deaths of loved ones and with his own mortality.[18

Those who knew Twain well late in life recount that he dwelt on the subject of the afterlife, his daughter Clara saying: "Sometimes he believed death ended everything, but most of the time he felt sure of a life beyond."[193]

Twain was a Freemason.[195][196] He belonged to Polar Star Lodge No. 79 A.F.&A.M., based in St. Louis. Twain was initiated an Entered Apprentice on May 22, 1861, passed to the degree of Fellow Craft on June 12, and raised to the degree of Master Mason on July 10.
His specific quote is spot on about people not wanting to admit they are being deceived. I don't care what religion or ideology he had.

So in the context of this thread how do you mean?
Good point, I should have given that.  - The fake quotes on promoting JP2 and such. Not people in these threads, I'm sure we all know they are fake. 
There is a movie about him denouncing fascism and such, which I'm almost 100 percent sure he DID NOT do.

At the Garabandal link, they explicitly explain WHY people make up Padre Pio quotes and material ...
Quote
Today no one would question the truth of an event if Padre Pio had authenticated it. This is the case of the apparitions of the Virgin in San Sebastian of Garabandal, in Cantabria (Spain).
