Emer, though [you are] on hide, [someone] wanted to see what you said and peeked :)
He had his green [vestments] on this last weekend......very nice ones[;] hats off to you if they were the ones you made....
[someone] Gave a good talk on the priests that [survived] the Japanese atom bombs.....a godo [sic] slight plug against the neocon temptation to :dance with bananas: over that evil, by our Freemasonic Truman..
Is he CMRI? SSPV?
Wow, oddly I just helped one of my kids do research on that very subject. I should say, forced her to learn about the Jesuits of Hiroshima. It is an extremely worthy topic of study for Catholics, and it is in danger of falling down the memory hole. Lots of info that used to be online is now nowhere to be found. But that is typical Fr. Collins, seeing the Big Picture and sharing important historical facts to instruct and inspire.
I know several non-Catholics who refuse to believe it happened. When I explain
the reports to them, they just shake their heads and say, "No, impossible. Nobody
can survive an atomic bomb, and with no radiation sickness. It can't happen.
Therefore it didn't happen."
Jesus told us about such people. No miracle is sufficient for them, even if they
see it happen before their eyes. They may refuse to believe what they see,
thinking there must be an explanation, and, just because they don't know what the
explanation is, doesn't mean that there isn't one.
So, when you say it's in danger of falling down the memory hole, you are exactly
correct. This denial of God's grace and the effects thereof is truly pandemic, and
the Pelagian ideology consequent makes such testimony in danger of becoming
mere "legend" or "myth." We ought to collect original docuмents as much as
possible before they are nowhere to be found, for the adversary rewards those
who find such things and destroy them.
I knew a retired cardiologist of this bent. He was an atheist Jєω. (That would seem
to be a contradiction in terms, an oxymoron, but there are many so-called Jєωs
who are atheist today, and their number is growing.) He said that he saw many
"miracles" working in St. Joseph's Medical Center in Burbank, CA, but that he was
certain that there will come a day when at last science will discover what makes
these "miracles" happen. He thought it would be some kind of mental exercise
that the recipients perform, or possibly some kind of group-think that others do
with, or without, the recipient's involvement. There has to be a scientific
explanation, he believed, and therefore, no religious explanation is satisfactory.
After all, there is no God, he believed.
I told him that believing there is no God is actually a religious belief, and he did
not like that observation one bit!
