"The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; ..."

I might be reading this wrong, but this sure doesn't sound like someone who lives in my part of the world.

I had to read this twice. Duuh.

Now I see, that in Texas everyone's a patriot, everyone's a soldier,
it's always summer and it's always sunshine, and NOBODY shrinks
from ANYTHING in any 'crisis', including but not limited to this crisis,
or the service of his country.

Okay, now I get it. Obviously, T. Paine was not a Texan.

Well, OK. I would have stopped with "it's always summer." : )

Quote from: Matthew

Zeitun is emotionally committed to Fr. Pfeiffer

Mea culpa cause I'm a girl through and through.

This Resistance needs less emotional committment and more rational committment.

Any volunteers?

:dancing-banana:Who's been committed?

Zeitun gets an "A" for enthusiasm at least...Pax Christi.

Quote from: Zeitun

--education programs: developing Catholic homeschool programs that are not affiliated with the SSPX,

What homeschool program is affiliated with the SSPX now besides correspondence through St Mary's? (I have no idea if they still offer that.)

Likewise Zeitun, though not a girl (64). And, who were at the Cross?

How silly if there is no Catholic Action within the Resistance. Catholic Action is resistance. I'm used to people, who do things and resist and engage in Catholic Action so find it strange to have these threads.

Matthew, I understand your excellent explanation "cult of personality" etc. You are correct, certainly. But, may be God gave women more motherly intuition than men? May be, may be, we just know somehow and then men put everything into context and certainly ought to command?

Sorry, again. I have heard in the past priests say the same thing re. Monseñor that Zeitun said. So, not restricted to women! However, as time goes by, these priests, may be by reading/listening carefully (?) to Monseñor, might be changing their minds...

BTW- I have heard from one who knows him, that Bishop Williamson actually listens to women because he recognizes they have God-given intuition that he, a man, lacks. Let's all we ladies go to war on behalf of His Lordship.

Even Bishop Williamson had a mommy.

Zeitun, that's so funny

. But, at our age, we are all mommies (not Monseñor, certainly!).

Sorry, meant to write "mummies"

Frances · « **Reply #43 on:** June 20, 2013, 01:12:55 PM »

What's with the thumbs down? Bp. W. DOES listen to women. He listens to Mary, no? Unlike others I can name but won't. If he hadn't listened to his Mum, he wouldn't have lived so long. I'm willing to bet she gave him a good amount of "whoopings" when he was a little shaver. He was probably a handful!
:baby:
