  1. Quote of the day, 23 July: St. Paul VI

    It is also important to note how the Church expresses in various effective attitudes of devotion the many relationships that bind her to Mary: in profound veneration, when she reflects on the singular dignity of the Virgin who, through the action of the Holy Spirit has become Mother of the Incarnate Word; in burning love, when she considers the spiritual motherhood of Mary towards all members of the Mystical Body; in trusting invocation; when she experiences the intercession of her advocate and helper (Lumen Gentium, 62); in loving service, when she sees in the humble handmaid of the Lord the queen of mercy and the mother of grace; in zealots imitation, when she contemplates the holiness and virtues of her who is “full of grace” (Lk. 1:28); in profound wonder, when she sees in her, “as in a faultless model, that which she herself wholly desires and hopes to be”(Sacrosanctum Concilium, 103); in attentive study, when she recognizes in the associate of the Redeemer, who already shares fully in the fruits of the Paschal Mystery, the prophetic fulfillment of her own future, until the day on which, when she has been purified of every spot and wrinkle (cf. Eph. 5:27), she will become like a bride arrayed for the bridegroom, Jesus Christ (cf. Rev. 21:2).

    Therefore, venerable Brothers, as we consider the piety that the liturgical Tradition of the universal Church and the renewed Roman Rite expresses towards the holy Mother of God, and as we remember that the liturgy through its pre-eminent value as worship constitutes the golden norm for Christian piety, and finally as we observe how the Church when she celebrates the sacred mysteries assumes an attitude of faith and love similar to that of the Virgin, we realize the rightness of the exhortation that the Second Vatican Council addresses to all the children of the Church, namely “that the cult, especially the liturgical cult, of the Blessed Virgin be generously fostered” (Lumen Gentium, 67). This is an exhortation that we would like to see accepted everywhere without reservation and put into zealous practice.

  4. BECAUSE LATIN AMERICAN CATHOLICISM IS ALIGNED WITH #VaticanoII #VaticanII

    the education i received for 12 years at Puerto Rican Catholics schools is far superior than what American christofascists think is a true religious education

    WE LEARNED SCIENCE & THEOLOGY

    these deaths cults do not even teach theology because they have none.

    say what you will about the Jesuits, but they founded some of the best schools & universities you find all across Latinoamérica.

  11. Labi domāta prasība pēc vienbalsīgiem balsojumiem liek formulējumos izvēlēties valodu, kas pārmaiņu īstenošanu apgrūtina vai pat aptur. Arī klausoties Garā, tāpēc jāpriecājas par domstarpībām un vairākuma viedokli. #VaticanII
