Mein Kindergebet:
"Vater unser , der du bist im Himmel drinnen,
warum kommst du nie heraus?"
Das brachte mir eine "Tachtel" meiner Großtante ein, mit den Worten untermalt: "Er wird schon noch früh genug herauskommen..."

Interesting that Constantinople is now 99% Muslim - sad really. This beggs the questions:
Is the orthodox church doing Her evangelisation well; is orthodox christianity here evangelising effectively? Hummmmm..... Is orthodox Liturgy and tradition more important than the message of the Christ and the evangelical edict to conversion of the world (including the 99% of muslims in Constantinople)?

There will be a novena for our Christian brothers in Iraq starting tomorrow (nov 11) on the German site of gloria tv -- in German, but everybody is welcome to join!!

May they rest in peace+++Requiescant in pace

@kfarley: I think my last posting was deleted by 'st.Victor'. So I shall say what I said in another way:
1. That when one has a discussion on these very sensitive matters, justice and biblical charity demands that ones arguments be both academically water-tight and delivered in a balanced, non-confrontational way. This means that one ought to offer good Biblical Scholarship, e.g. citations and informed exegesis of those parts of Scripture which deal with the matter at hand, viz. homosexuality.

The Priest is right, the gay activist is wrong-END OF STORY. You either follow what God demands of those who love Him or you don't! You love the sinner but HATE THE SIN! You can never be a good Catholic and condone a mortally sinful lifestyle. If you compremise your values in order to please human beings you are yearning for the favor of man and going against your God. A homosexual can have the feelings they have but they cannot act upon their homosexual desires. Their homosexuality is a cross they must bear-they must "die to self" and follow what God says they must do to attain heaven. The devil always tempts the sinner to justify their sinfulness by getting them to believe what they "feel" is what is right. When one acts upon feelings instead of relying on what God demands of the ones who love Him all sin is justifyable. Acting on feelings is where fornication, adultery, murder, pedophilia and any grave sin has its roots. Satan wants mankind to act on their feelings because when man …More
