What do you people think of Fox News?
« on: December 07, 2016, 11:14:28 AM »
I have to say, this site is very different from what I am used to and some of what I am reading so far is--shall we say--disquieting. But I will continue to read and who knows, maybe my mind will change. I do think the anti-Jew rant is over the top. You don't judge someone by what group he belongs to or appears to belong to. Everyone is unique and responsible for his own sins. So anyway, since there is much cynicism at this site (and my middle name is Cynicism), I was just wondering what you all think of Fox News?

I have my own thoughts and perceptions that i would like to share but if i share them now, people may respond to that and not talk about their own perceptions, so i will hold off expressing mine.

I would like to hear from those who actually watch Fox News on a regular basis.

Thanks.    :rolleyes:

Welcome countrychurch. Really I do not qualify to post on your new thread because not only do I not watch Fox News, I do not watch or listen to any mainstream media news. That would be a better way for you to go too, if you want to find the truth.

I suggest, you read the fixture near the top of page 1 of New Posts "Turn off the TV" here,  http://www.cathinfo.com/catholic.php?a=topic&t=3196&min=0&num=10 if you haven't already.

Well the group YOU belong to does say a lot about YOU. Do you know any nice satanists, for example? I know a few "nice" Jehovah's Witnesses. There are certain things that pertain to these two groups that apply to each and every one who accepts their code. And there are certain beliefs and a certain code that applies specifically to Jews. Maybe you can say what you read here that is "over the top".

What kind of "anti-Jew" ranting have you heard on Fox News?

Are you Catholic? Have you read the saints' anti-Jew "rants"? Have you heard of St. John Chrysostom's Homilies Against The Jews?

Have you heard of these "rants" from the following saints (among many more teachings from other saints) regarding the Jews?:

Quote
If someone should kill the beloved son of a man, and then stretch forth their hands still stained with blood to the afflicted father, asking for fellowship, would not the blood of his son, visible on the hand of his murderer, provoke him to just anger instead? And such are the prayers of the Jews, for when they stretch forth their hands in prayer, they only remind God-the-Father of their sin against His Son. And at every stretching-forth of their hands, they only make it obvious that they are stained with the blood of Christ. For they who persevere in their blindness inherit the blood-guilt of their fathers; for they cried out: "His blood be upon us, and upon our children" (Matthew xxvii.25). ~ St. Basil the Great


Quote
Since this wicked generation did not know that it should repent, but daily became more wicked, its last state was worse than its first ... The evil and adulterous generation of the Jews were to be condemned because of their hard and unrepentant hearts. ~ St. Bruno


Quote
[...] God hates the Jews, and on Judgment Day He will say to those who sympathize with them., "Depart from Me, for you have had intercourse with My murderers!" Flee, then, from their assemblies, fly from their houses, and, far from venerating the ѕуηαgσgυє, hold it in hatred and aversion. ~ St. John Chrysostom


Quote
O Jєωιѕн hearts, harder than rocks! ~ St. Ambrose


Quote
Jews are cursed and covered with malediction as by a cloak. The curse has penetrated them like water in their bowels and oil in their bones. They are cursed in the city and cursed in the country, cursed in their coming in and cursed in their going out. Cursed are the fruits of their loins, of their lands, of their flocks; cursed are their cellars, their granaries, their shops, their food, the very crumbs off their tables! ~ St. Agobard


Quote
I knew in my faith that the Jews were accursed and condemned without end, except those who were converted. ~ Bl. Juliana of Norwich


Quote
The Jews are enemies of God and foes of our holy religion. ~ Padre Pio


Quote
The Jews knew that Christ was the son of David. And even now they hope for His Coming. It is hidden from them that He has come, but it is hidden because they willed it so. For, not acknowledging Him on the cross, the knowledge of Him reigning in glory should not be theirs ... Why are the Jews hoping for what has already come, and not fearful for what is to come? For Our Lord Jesus Christ ... referred Himself as "the Stone" (Matthew xxi.44), that whoever stumbles upon it shall be bruised; but upon whom it shall fall, it will grind to powder ... Lying on the ground, it shakes whoever falls over it; coming from on high, it crushes the proud. The Jews have already been shaken by their previous stumble. What awaits them is to be crushed by His Coming. ~ St. Augustine

Think about it, countrychurch. Maybe it's because you watch Fox News and other Jєωιѕн-owned and/or controlled media that you think that things said here are "over the top". Do hang around and get a more balanced perspective than you are getting from Fox News.

That's a great collection of saying of saints, Ascent.
