Alexandria said:Raoul, I agree. The bad thing about this internet is that what I think I'm conveying doesn't come across. And also, one never knows when one will step on someone's toes by what one posts. I told the EWTN story because I realize how utterly useless EWTN is.
No no, I realize that. Sorry I sound so grumpy. The grump was not directed at you.
I don't know much about EWTN, but I know it wouldn't get on the air without the Jєωs. The only time I saw anything they broadcast was the online video of those CMRI nuns who went back into the Novus Ordo. It was so ridiculous with the rock music and the "friar Cam" or "monk Cam" or whatever it was. Just completely Satanic mockery, and Catholics don't even get it.
I should qualify what I wrote: When I say the Church, I mean to say the churchmen, church women, whatever...I realize that the Church is the Spotless Bride of Christ.
And no, I am not saying that the "gates of hell" have prevailed, just that the Church is experiencing Her Holy Saturday - She's in the tomb, and has been for some time now.
Only Our Lord can save us now and straighten out the mess.
Yep. Never despair, He has foreseen all this from the beginning, and He has a plan. It would be SO easy for there to be an awakening. The devil is walking on eggshells hoping people don't wake up. Millions and millions of people all over the world are being kept frozen by a tiny percentage who use the media to propagandize them into submission.
I believe that literally, from one day to the next, everything could completely change. I don't know where I get this optimism. I just know it can't keep going on like this for much longer, as you say, Arborman. Soon people are going to HAVE to realize they need God. Aren't they?
