Your comment makes it seem like you'd prefer him to be a disembodied voice or something. Are you saying that any Catholic who speaks the truth, fights the devil, and also reveals his or her own identity is a Protestant at heart?! Or insincere or dishonest in some way? Or what? I can think of many Catholic saints who have "lifted their visors". Assuming it is a prideful gesture is not necessarily warranted.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09927474235629912604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1531497517644951122.post-35846676450338144072012-11-20T13:34:02.458-08:002012-11-20T13:34:02.458-08:00Jay,

Have never been able to locate exactly where/when she said it. Since I trust Michael Voris, I went with it, even though I could not find the document or speech it came from. Personally, I think the "easy-going" quote sounds more plausible; "luke-warm" sounds like a paraphrase to me. Well... of course any English version will pretty much be a paraphrase anyway!Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09927474235629912604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1531497517644951122.post-11143603707921217552012-11-19T11:14:41.890-08:002012-11-19T11:14:41.890-08:00Jay,

The quote as it is written in the post seems to be from Pope Pius V. Pope Pius X has been quoted as saying, “All the strength of Satan’s reign is due to the easygoing weakness of Catholics.” Same idea, obviously. I don't know where/when each Pope made the pronouncement, and haven't had time to dig it out.

To quote Pope Leo XIII , writing in Libertas humana:<br />The ture liberty of human society does not consist in every man doing what he pleases, for this would simply end in turmoil and confusion , and bring on the overthrow of the State: BUT RATHER IN THIS,that through the injunctions of the civil law all may more easily conform to the presciptions of the ETERNAL LAW. <br /><br />Christ the King must reign and HE has be dethroned ...society has not embraced God and His ways or His Church or His laws ...we all know that...UNTIL Jesus Christ is proclaimed KING ...we are a lost nation and Church ! Let us pray !<br />Let us stand firm: put on the Armor of God daily , say the St. Michael pray , call on Our Blessed Mother and REJOICE .Jeannie Hollerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08865018937964493630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1531497517644951122.post-46196668135972978552012-11-07T23:18:29.533-08:002012-11-07T23:18:29.533-08:00Amen, and amen!
