Proud to be a Catholic ping!
I became a Catholic to have my sins forgiven. Me and Chesterton. It’s the only church I’m good enough for.
I have stayed Catholic because of the power of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist.
We fought the Crusades before; well, it appears we have to do it again, even if it’s against enemies other than muslims, the real non-believers, i.e., leftists, marxists, atheists, etc. who’ve chosen sides with the mohammedans. All, hell bent on destroying Christians world wide. Christ said the gates of hell wouldn’t prevail against his Church on earth. It’s been put to the test in the past, there’s no reason to believe it isn’t an ongoing trial, a test of faith, and is happening again, thit time in full force from several angles. So be it. “Viva Cristo Rey”.
Good answer!
Nadie me ama como mi Jesus. No one loves me like my Jesus.
Amen! Catholic then, Catholic now, Catholic forever. I don’t agree with Francis on lot of things, but he is not the Church, Christ is.
Nice.

If somebody wants to convert me away from Catholicism, he’ll have to convince me of one of the following:
1. That there is no God.
2. That Jesus Christ is not God the Son.
3. That Jesus Christ did not establish a Church.
4. That the Pope is not the successor to St. Peter.
I didn’t become a Catholic until three and a half years ago. 17 years prior to becoming a Catholic I had become a Christian but did not identify with any particular church. I have been through a lot of different world views in my life including atheism, pantheism, Theosophy, and spiritualism. None of them can hold a candle to the completeness of Catholicism, although all of them were interesting in their own way. I cannot see myself ever leaving the Catholic Church because I would not know where to go.
The world can kiss my Catholic arse.
Because the Church has the fullness of Truth and is Christ’s bride.
Der weld according to “KMA” mohammet doesn’t care whether you are catholic or lutheran.... they don’t even have words for that, fellow infidel.
Obama and the OIC’s “UN” all apart of the same agenda and viewpoint.
I am staying Catholic because it gave to the world the Holy Bible and the 7 sacraments. Plus Jesus is “with us always until the end of the age.”
Yet when the King comes back, “every knee must bend” that Jesus Christ is LORD.
Your journey sounds like mine.
Good for you,Herr!Good to see your name again.
the opinions of other people matter very little, really...
keep the faith ... and be a bit “salty” back to society too.....
(Matthew 5:)
13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven
