First for one to be classified as funny (albeit unintentionally so)

I am not going to freak out because some person I don't know on the Internet might marry Tele.

I was actually going to start a thread similar to this. I save snips of my favorite posts or ones I want to reread using Windows 7's snip program. I was going to upload the snips and post them, but this is simpler.

I made this rice pudding recipe Matthew posted a while back, and it was so good that it's my goto rice pudding recipe now.

CathInfo Rice Pudding

Part I: Cooking the Rice

Cook 2/3 white rice, and 1/3 brown (the light yellow, non-white kind...not wild rice or long grain) rice together, per the usual directions
(1 part rice to 1 part water)
Use regular bags of rice; the kind you can get cheap/bulk.

To make 4 cups cooked rice (the amount you need for 1 batch):

1 1/3 cups white rice
2/3 cup brown rice
2 cups water

Part II: Making Rice Pudding

Ingredients:
4 cups cooked white/brown rice (2:1 ratio)
3 cups milk (2% or whole)
1/2 cup white sugar
3/4 cup raisins
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg

Directions:
Cook rice, and set aside.

In a clean saucepan (glass works well), heat milk to near boiling. Add cooked rice and stir over medium heat, near constantly, until thick and creamy. When pudding is almost the right consistency, add raisins. (If pudding refuses to thicken, add a bit more cooked rice.) Cook 15 to 20 minutes total. When rice pudding is the correct consistency, remove from heat. NOTE: Pudding does NOT thicken any more once you take it off the heat. Add sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix well.

Nice thread, Tele.

This is a good quote:

A Pentecostal Preacherman came up to me outside a bank once and said "Have you heard the good word of our Lord Jesus Christ?" To which I replied "Yeah and he wants to know why you're not in his Church!"

Nice thread, Tele.

Sorry Raoul76, couldn't resist!  

[ServusSpiritusSancti]

Haha, yeah, that quote from Raoul is classic.

Here's another humorous one that LordPhan made in response to roscoe, who kept using (and mis-interpreting) the same Bible verse:

See kids? Marijuana affects the brain. This heathen forgot already that he used that same Bible verse 3 hours ago. He then forgot that I refuted it 1 hour ago.

[ServusSpiritusSancti]

Here's a good one from Matthew, in a response to a statement from Fr. Bouchacourt a few weeks ago:

Well, I can't remain silent either!

What a load of crap.

The Faithful were there BECAUSE it was Bishop Williamson, who they know is a faithful prelate and successor to Archbishop Lefebvre in the fight for Tradition.

Yes, the SSPX *did* submit a docuмent to Rome that WAS acceptable to them. It's only thanks to Pope Benedict XVI sticking to HIS principles that a deal wasn't done a couple months ago.

If we don't see some apologies real soon, it's looking more and more like this "change of heart" on Bishop Fellay's part is just more politics and stage acting.

They have NOT ONE but TWO docuмents on the front page of SSPX.org condemning clerics (+Williamson, Fr. Chazal, Fr. Pfeiffer) who were RIGHT ALL ALONG about Rome. Furthermore, these docuмents, far from reserved, are quite outrageous in their insinuations and accusations against these holy clerics.

If the newly "repentant SSPX" doesn't see the need to remove these outrages from their website, then there is no repentance. The whole thing is more posturing and politics.

[ServusSpiritusSancti]

Lots of good quotes from Tele on this site about Bishop Fellay and the SSPX/Rome drama. Here's one that deserves some recognition:

The Archbishop had a fundamentally consistent position that he held fast to.

That was his final position, the position that Bishop Fellay is systematically undermining and preparing to destroy.

Bishop Williamson is right to speak of the 1974 declaration, because it's the principle of resistance on which the SSPX is founded.

A good post from Daegus a while back:

Lately it would appear as though I've been running into a fair share of people who seem to think that no one can judge anything because "it's not our job" or something along the lines of that. All I'll say to these people (and you know who are) is this:

Let's just assume your position is a good one to take for a moment..

If a man claims that Jesus Christ is NOT God and He dies obstinately denying this Truth while being baptised, I guess "we can't judge" and assume his soul was lost. Even if 2 seconds before this man dies he still denied the existence of Jesus Christ, we can't presume he was lost because we "can't judge" even though there's no proof he repented.

Oh, but "what's wrong with this position?" you might ask. Well, think of it like this. If Christ teaches that it is necessary for belief in Him to go to Heaven and someone denies this and remains obstinate in it until death and there's no proof of repentance before death, then it is simply a manifestation of faithlessness in the teachings of Christ for you to believe that it is even likely this man was saved. You can't say "we can't judge" and then claim to be Catholic, as if you even believe in anything Christ taught. You don't really believe that all who die outside of Christ are lost. What you believe in is universal salvation, as you can't even say for sure what Christ teaches quite plainly.

Pope Eugene IV, Council of Florence, “The Athanasian Creed,” Sess. 8, Nov. 22, 1439, ex cathedra:
“Whoever wishes to be saved, needs above all to hold the Catholic faith; unless each one preserves this whole and inviolate, he will without a doubt perish in eternity.”

Here is St. Francis Xavier contradicting the modernist Gospel of "wecan'tjudgism":

St. Francis Xavier, The Life and Letters of St. Francis Xavier by Henry James Coleridge, S.J. (Published in 1872), Nov. 5, 1549:
“The corsair who commanded our vessel died here at Cagoxima.  He did his work for us, on the whole, as we wished… He himself chose to die in his own superstitions; he did not even leave us the power of rewarding him by that kindness which we can after death do to other friends who die in the profession of the Christian faith, in commending their souls to God, since the poor fellow by his own hand cast his soul into hell, where there is no redemption.”

"What's this? St. Francis Xavier just presumed someone to be in Hell!" you might say. That's exactly right. He did just do that because he understands that "we can't judge" is not at all what the Catholic Church teaches. You might even object that St. Francis is a saint while we are not, even though this argument falls on its face when considering St. Francis was not yet a saint when he made that remark and did not even know he would become one. You might even object and say that "St. Francis was wrong in judging" but this too is not a Catholic argument, as if you KNOW someone obstinately denied the Faith while living and they died obstinately denying it there's no way they were saved. Saying otherwise is just a denial of the Faith.

So you see, the very notion of "we can't judge" is pure rubbish and is actually contrary to what the Bible teaches. Psalms 36:30, 118:13 and 1 Corinthians 2:15 are just a few examples of why this is contrary to what the Bible teaches.

Now, even after all this, you may think that because I've said all this that means that I'm encouraging people to go around condemning everyone as a heretic. This is not true. All I'm saying is that saying "we can't judge" isn't true. If you see someone (baptised..) who is obstinately denying the Faith while claiming to be a Christian/Catholic it is your DUTY to judge what is already true: that they are heretics. Saying that you can't judge is just a way to run from all dispute, all the while subtly implying that you don't really believe that all who die outside the Church are lost.

So before you tell me "we can't judge", you must consider these things first.

Funny but still good joke...
(I hope to be able to translate the gag to English, too. If not, please feel free to post a corrected version! Thanks.)

Suddenly a deep voice from the clouds says to the rabbi: "Don't worry, mine too."
