Title: What do you people think of Fox News?
Post by: countrychurch 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-Jєω 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 Jєωs. Maybe you can say what you read here that is "over the top".

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

Are you Catholic? Have you read the saints' anti-Jєω "rants"? Have you heard of St. John Chrysostom's Homilies Against The Jєωs (http://www.tertullian.org/fathers/index.htm#Chrysostom_Against_the_Jєωs)?

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

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 Jєωs, 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 Jєωs were to be condemned because of their hard and unrepentant hearts. ~ St. Bruno


Quote
[...] God hates the Jєωs, 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
Jєωs 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 Jєωs were accursed and condemned without end, except those who were converted. ~ Bl. Juliana of Norwich


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


Quote
The Jєωs 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 Jєωs 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 Jєωs 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.

Fox News is another liberal news organ.  However, they do seem to present opposing views on most issues and that is something that other news outlets don't generally do.  This makes them seem conservative to most people.  

The one subject on which they completely toe the liberal line on, however, is ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖity.

On the whole, however, it does give you more actual information than many mainstream media outlets.  It is still best to supplement news from other sources.

it's been awhile since i read the anti-Jєω stuff but i vaguely recall something about the h0Ɩ0cαųst not being real? or the implication was there anyway. I do not like that Jєωs reject Jesus and HIs true Church.. hate that, but if someone does this out of ignorance.. that is quite different from rejecting Jesus out of malice or self-concern (wanting to succeed money-wise) or whatever..

well, i dont see where they actually PROMOTE ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖity, although they have had an "outing" or 2 (gαys coming out of the closet on air)

i never heard about Shep being gαy (still dont have verification of that) except through some other poster, not Fox. I do not get the feeling they promote ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖity, just accept it. But they are wrong to accept it as though it is something one is born with. Of course, there is differing opinions but... yeh, i know they are not exactly conservative, esp on the abortion issue. I think many on Fox dislike abortion but some i wonder about..

I am very Catholic

no, i had never read those rants of the saints against the Jєωs. But thanks. And even though i had never read them b4, i HAD been having some .. shall we say "negative" thoughts about them just generally speaking, mostly in the last couple yrs... just from my own observations and thoughts. I mean, i began to think about it: Why are the Jєωs.. um... still Jєωs? What kind of a Savior could they possibly want other than Jesus?

So yeh.. i began to see irrespective of the saints' comments that the Jєωs are illogical at best.. and i also hate the way a lot of prominent Jєωs are not only Democrats but pretty pro-abortion. Disgusting. But what do we expect from those who reject Christ?

I am glad the saints say it is OK to be "anti-Jєω" However, that being said, i give every individual a chance b4... "hating" him... and NO i am NOT saying any particular poster is a hater, meaning someone who hates for no logical reason. The thing is, the Catholic Church, people therein, are partly responsible for the Jєωs not converting b/c they do not seem overly evangelical.. no, most catholics seem to stick to daily Mass and ... not venture to evangelize others a lot, just my reality (though i admit i could "get out" more..)[/size]

I do not watch FOX news nor any TV news.  I do have an opinion. They are a
bunch of neo-cons justifying unjust wars. They have their share of CIA
operatives just like the other networks spewing out fake and deceptive news
designed to support the government positions.
Best to get your news on the internet. If you read my post on the weekly
columns of Patrick J. Buchanan is a good start.

Just like the establishment GOP is a tool for herding us toward NWO, so too is Fox News.  The objective is herd a wider swath than CNN & MSNBC could herd without it.  I used to be glued to FoxNews.  But not for about 5 years or so now.  What started turning me off to them is they're too damn Mormon-friendly for my taste.

To state what should be the obvious: Fox is a controlled opposition.  Aside from that, they feature the тαℓмυdic Jєωi Zionist war monger Charles Krauthammer.  Aside from being a war monger CK is an advocate of evolution(which is, of course, a religion not science) and an advocate of abortion.  As for 9-11 he pushes a false narrative.  He stated: " There is not a single, remotely plausible, alternative strategy for attacking the monster behind 9/11. It's not Osama bin Laden; it is the cauldron of political oppression, religious intolerance, and social ruin in the Arab-Islamic world—oppression transmuted and deflected by regimes with no legitimacy into virulent, murderous anti-Americanism."

Yes. We were watching Fox News.  I'm sick of it. Shep is a ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ and he is on during day.
Many liberals like Geraldo, Juan Williams, megyn kelly, Kennedy...  Anyone who is remotely conservative is placed at night when most people are in bed like Hannity.

Anyone who supports gαy marriage and sodomy is not a conservative.

"F" 6th letter of the alphabet = 6
"O" 15th letter 1+5 = 6
"X" 24th letter 2+4 = 6

The women on Fox News dress very immodestly and wear excessive amounts of makeup. What a bad and mortally sinful example to set for conservative minded women.

yeh, i think they probably pushed Romney on us just like they overly covered Trump in the primaries.. pushing Ted and others out

I'm just glad Trump is no Mormon!

i didn't follow the Romney campaign, didn't watch much Fox in those days.. but have been watching it in the last several yrs. There are a few things there that.. well, some things just don't set too well w/ me while other things are downright ENRAGING.. don't want to give examples right now b/c .. kinda dont want to lose my good mood... maybe tomorrow?

yes and some of those women have no business showing their legs!

some have good legs and some should cover the darn knees up and maybe the rest also...

and why do they always wear single color dresses? I mean, why no floral prints or ...?

Faux News

Biblical exegesis presents us with some rather interesting reasons why Jesus referred to Herod Antipas (the son of Herod the Great, most infamously known for his slaughter of the Holy Innocents) as a fox.
Luke 13:32

No doubt, the Almighty has some rather choice words for Fox (aka: Faux) News.

The fact that Fox to this day adamantly pushes the false, albeit "official" 9-11 narrative means that they show positive on the litmus test for NWO backers.

Countrychurch, are you telling us that you believe the U.S. government's official 9-11 version?  If not can you tell us what version you believe?
