  • The Russian seduction of the world continues while Our Lady's request is repeatedly ignored. I wonder what "Good Vibrations" Nathanael thinks about Fatima. He probably thinks Putin is the fruit of JPII's "consecration".

  • Stubborn - There are canonized saints whose reported behavior is far stranger than that which comes from bro nathanael(and I am also not saying that bro nathanael is a saint).

    Do you think it normal for people dress like a cleric and dance around some kind of rock music in public while holding a crucifix?

    Brother Nathanael was in a Greek Orthodox monastery for 8 years before changing jurisdictions to ROCOR and embarking on a street and internet ministry. He still lives the Rule of a monastic.

    St. John Chrysostom:

    Quote
    The man who fast should be properly restrained, contrite, humbled-not drunk with anger. But do you strike your fellow slaves? In Isaiah's day they quarreled and squabbled when they fasted; now when fast, they go in for excesses and the ultimate licentiousness, dancing with bare feet in the marketplace. The pretext is that they are fasting, but they act like men who are drunk. Hear how the prophet bit them to fast. "Sanctify a fast", he said. He did not say: "Make a parade of your fasting", but "call an assembly; gather together the ancients". But these Jєωs are gathering choruses of effeminates and a great rubbish heap of harlots; they drag into the ѕуηαgσgυє the whole theater, actors and all. For there is no difference between the theater and the ѕуηαgσgυє. I know that some suspect me of rashness because I said there is no difference between the theater and the ѕуηαgσgυє; but I suspect them of rashness if they do not think that this is so. If my declaration that the two are the same rests on my own authority, then charge me with rashness. But if the words I speak are the words of the prophet, then accept his decision.

    Many, I know, respect the Jєωs and think that their present way of life is a venerable one. This is why I hasten to uproot and tear out this deadly opinion. I said that the ѕуηαgσgυє is no better than a theater and I bring forward a prophet as my witness. Surely the Jєωs are not more deserving of belief than their prophets. "You had a harlot's brow; you became shameless before all". Where a harlot has set herself up, that place is a brothel. But the ѕуηαgσgυє is not only a brothel and a theater; it also is a den of robbers and a lodging for wild beasts. Jeremiah said: "Your house has become for me the den of a hyena". He does not simply say "of wild beast", but "of a filthy wild beast", and again: "I have abandoned my house, I have cast off my inheritance". But when God forsakes a people, what hope of salvation is left? When God forsakes a place, that place becomes the dwelling of demons.

    So you consider that behavior normal, I don't.

    You honestly equate this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaQ9dFF2FDs&feature=youtu.be to St. John Chrysostom? Not surprising.

  • mcfiggly - I thought my comment "and I am not saying bro nathanael is a saint" would send the message that I am not endorsing his dancing behavior.  And, I am not endorsing his dancing behavior, but am I interested in condemning him for it.  I want to counter stubborns irrelevant attack on bro nathanael(who makes very good videos - this being one of them).  And, I actually should have termed them as "blessed" instead of "canonized saints".  Because, it is easier to claim ones "blessed" rather than ones "canonized".   There are many blessed in butlers lives.

    And, concerning the russian haters.  What would you rather have - freemasons(protestants/europe/usa/west) in control of the nєω ωσrℓ∂ σr∂єr(ever since the creation of israel we should assume we are living in the nєω ωσrℓ∂ σr∂єr)?  Or, would you rather have the russians(putin forbes most powerful man who publicly makes the sign of the cross along with the countries top general)?  I think we are in a better situation with the russians(who will influence and steer the up and coming power that is china) having the upper hand.  

    Putin and his top general vs obama and his Jєωιѕн neo con generals is definitely to be preferred.

    None of them have the Catholic Faith so I would choose neither.
