Top of the Church


For those who like songs, a Franciscan version of 'Top of the World' by The Carpenters.

Pray for Cardinal Burke.

Pray for Pope Francis.

Pray for the Church of Jesus Christ.

Today's must watch: Rorate's new interview with Bishop Athanasius Schneider.



May God be praised for voices of sanity 
during this madness.

Meanwhile...

Glad you found that video of Bishop Schneider. I watched it earlier. Now if he were ever elected Pope I would be a very happy bunny.

La Misericordia Bulla

Mercy for you, mercy from me.
Hosanna, mercy! Hosanna, me !

Dogma says “don’t”, doctrine says “whoa”!
Tradition says “halt”. Serviam? I say No.

Sin can be virtue, virtue be sin.
But mercy is mercy, Voila! Sin again.

Obstinate, harsh, rigid justice is wrong.
Mercy the prize, dance to my song.

Mercy the rock, the rock built on me.
So it is now and ever will be. © 2016

Mercy for all, unring the bell.
Satan is saved, though his real home is hell.

Mercy for you, mercy from me.
Hosanna, mercy! Hosanna, me!

Oh My Goodness. You absolutely nailed it! If 'That's Amoris' got noticed, Monday's (or the weekend's?) headlines should prove quite entertaining. Thank you so much Laurence! You help restore Faith and also a sense of indignation in us, and I rejoice in your wonderful ability and thank the good God for it! :-)
