It's Time to Get Truly Catholic

Millions of babies, trillions of dollars...
and you still voted for Obama?!?!

Reader and commenter HSE sent me an article in The Remnant by Michael J. Matt – take a trip over there and read it.

Here are some highlights (my emphases):

… This election has made it abundantly obvious to millions that vast numbers of their compatriots have simply lost any semblance of their God-given moral equilibrium--a sobering fact that will cause them to realize they're standing in knee-deep water that is rapidly rising and that it's time for them to seek higher ground. In other words, the party is over, and half the country is staring into the eyes of the beast.

Exactly. As I commented to my husband last night, the good news is that more than half of the population of this country has some semblance of moral intelligence; the bad news is that the moral idiots had their way in the election.

This is a golden opportunity for us, then—not to accuse Obama for being a closet Muslim or whatever else—but rather to encourage all Americans to come out of their respective closets and to become Christian again. The human element of the Catholic Church has an eleventh-hour opportunity to abandon the Modernism that has plagued the Church for too long, before the Church in America is crushed beneath the heels of militant atheists. Moderate, jovial, doctrine-phobic bishops lost big tonight. Cardinal Dolan, Governor Chris Christie—what’s the difference! Who cares! Millions have had enough!

An awakening took place tonight, and it means that faithful, traditionalist, God-fearing Americans can finally begin to move towards authentic restoration of everything that matters most in this life—that which Americans once held sacred, good, honorable and noble because it is based on love of God, His law, Christian culture, tradition and the family. I'm not destroyed by the election results. Rather, I feel as though we've finally hit bottom, and there's no place to go from here but up.

…

Obama represents our chastisement, perhaps, but certainly not our conqueror. His victory may well lead to our redemption, in fact, both as Catholics and as Americans. Four more years of Obama may mean that America will have to suffer, but perhaps she will also begin to find her soul again… and her knees. Then Americans will have a chance to be truly free--something they haven't known for many, many decades.

We know what we’re up against. We have to fight, harder than ever. And I don’t know about you, but to me that means fighting to restore the Catholic Church. It won’t do just to say, “Well, at least we’re a Christian nation”…see where that’s taken us? There is one true faith, and we need to spread that word – the fullness of the truth that is faithfully contained in the teachings of the Church.

Just found this on Face Book - my sentiments exactly!

That’s my story, and I’m stickin’ with it. And I continue to pray for all bishops and priests - for the good ones who will lead us into through the desert by their shining example and willingness to suffer the consequences of preaching the Truth; and for the bad ones who won't preach the Truth at all because they don't believe it; and for the lukewarm ones who know the Truth, but hold back out of fear of government or fear of parishioners.

If you think this Philothea was on Phire before, just wait…I’m turning up the heat because we need to get this pot boiling.

Warning to Bishops with Balloons:
Your bubble is gonna burst.
