Clericalism with protestants: After allowing a stripper on stage, megachurch Pastor John Lindell claims you can't criticize him, otherwise you'll be headed towards unbelief and live a barren life. In this conversation with Mark Driscoll, after kicking him off stage, there was not ONE MENTION of the former male stripper that they had performing at the Stronger Men's Conference.

From what I've researched, the performer in question is actually a circus act - acrobat/sword swallower. He performs in Vegas frequently. HOWEVER hardly a good fit for a "Christian men's conference" Of course, we had similar in our own house:

f you marry badly — or marry at all, when it isn’t for you — don’t assume the damage is recoverable. If you make the wrong career choice, and realise it as early as age 30, don’t count on a way back. Even the decision to go down a science track at school, when the humanities turn out to be your bag, can mangle a life. None of these errors need consign a person to eternal and acute distress. But life is path-dependent: each mistake narrows the next round of choices. A big one, or just an early one, can foreclose all hope of the life you wanted.

The myth of the second chance
The self-help industry suggests all mistakes in life are retrievable. Middle age teaches us otherwise

True that - but often people today, particularly the young, are paralyzed by a behavior labeled F.O.M.O. = fear of missing out. So they defer marriage or children, or religious vocation, or conversion to later, so they can experience all options open. This 'tyranny of choice' keeps them from making any life commitments at all. Hence the feeling of giving up that permeates the Western world.

Papers like Time of Mr Luce and his friends were preparing Catholics in the US to morph into followers of americanism. People like J. C. Murray but also Fulton Sheen were very useful in that process. They are false saints of the false religion.

In the 80s I had a set Bishop Sheen cassettes that I would pop in the cassette player of my car when I drove to and from work, 140 mile round trip. It was great and Bishop Sheen's voice sounded as though he was right there in the passenger seat. I used to play them on occasion for the CCD classes I taught. Do they still distribute/sell his magnificent sermons?

Cardinal Robert Sarah, one of the leading cardinals in terms of intelligence and integrity, praised the bishops of Cameroon for their "courageous and prophetic" 21 December statement against Francis' homosexual pseudo-blessings. "You have done a work of pastoral charity by pointing out the truth," he said. The cardinal is currently visiting Cameroon, where he gave a programmatic speech on 9 April at the Episcopal Conference headquarters in Mvolyé, published on Diakonos.be. It is "wrong and ridiculous" for "some people in the West" [including Francis] to claim that the Cameroonian bishops acted in the name of some "cultural particularism", Sarah clarified. They have claimed, "in a logic of intellectual neo-colonialism", that Africans are "not yet" ready to "bless" sin "for cultural reasons", he said: "As if the West had a head start over backward Africans." In reality, the bishops in Africa are acting "in the name of the one Lord, the one faith of the Church", Sarah explained: "Since when …More

And Cardinal Wilton Gregory thinks the 'LGBTQ' Catholics will obey? Get real. What planet is this Cardinal on? The group in London has been openly flouting Catholic teaching for a quarter of a century, and have bragged that no member of the hierarchy has ever told them they have to remain celibate.

A private revelation by Sr. Faustina, whose errors and bizarre eccentricities in her writings and Divine Mercy revelations have been put on the Index of Forbidden Books. Further this devotion seems to lead believers to trust that Divine Mercy is all that is needed, and that the fight against sin, the devil and the sins of the world is no longer necessary.

“We’re very confused about what faith is in the modern world. We think that faith is your verbal assent to a collection of descriptive statements,” he noted. “That’s perhaps an element of faith. … But the faith itself is, what would you say? It’s the willingness to presume that being and becoming is good despite tragedy and malevolence.”
