The twisted terror group today released a video showing its barbaric militants razing the ancient Mar Elian monastery to the ground, even digging up and desecrating the bones of a Christian saint.
There were reports that fighters had also kidnapped the monastery's abbot, Father Jacques Mouraud and a church volunteer, Botros Hanna, who are both now feared dead.
In the sick video the terrorists can be seen gleefully removing the remains of Saint Elian, after whom the monastery was named, from their ancient stone sarcophagus.
The church is said to have been built on the spot where Saint Elian died after he was killed by his father, a Roman officer, for refusing to denounce his faith.
It was a popular pilgrim site with Christians throughout the Middle East and housed Roman frescos which were amongst the oldest paintings in the region.

ReplyDeleteAnd the Pope has this to say: "We sympathize with your plight and pray for you. But first, let's do something about unemployment and the environment."

It seems mideast Christians are being punished for the perverse crimes of the Lily (black) Savages parading around as popes and bishops and performing black masses that ARE an offense to God!!!!!

God above. Is Cliff Richard living with an ex Catholic priest?
DeleteI am so sick and tired of all this. Why are the Christians so impotent to do anything?
ReplyDeleteWhere is the new Templar army? Why hasn't the Pope called for a Christian army?
And this thing with 'turning the other cheek'. I read somewhere that according to Jewish custom, 'turning the other cheek' means that the perpetrator doing the striking can't hit you because if you've turned the cheek they can't hit you properly with the hand. Jesus, was Jewish, so He knew the customs. Is that true? Anyone hear about this?
The pope is busy with traveling, concern about the temperature of the air, and embracing heretics.
ReplyDeleteWhat a horrid event that I suspect no one will hear about from national news sources.
ReplyDeletePope Francis has condemned the persecutions against Christians that have take place around the world and, in particular, has condemned repeatedly the persecutions against Christians in the Middle East.

Way, way, way, way, WAY too little Ed. His major foci are:
Delete-pushing The U.N.'s satanic agenda 21 through the left's bogus creation of 'man-made global warming' (God have mercy on his sick soul!)
-destroying the legitimate immigration laws of nations and inciting the invasion of muslim hordes into post-Christian countries
-berating Catholics with traditional leanings (in other words; Catholics!)
-and setting up a pantheistic, nature-based one-world religion, with lip service to a 'christ-omega point'.
I am anxiously awaiting his encyclical on the unjust persecution of Christians by the perfidious muslims and the satanic secular-marxist governments (the biggest of which obama, his new bbf, heads). .....yeah, I'm waiting.
For God's sake....WAKE UP!
Catholicism is most likely going to be reduced to the tiniest remnant in the immediate future until God decides to intervene. For now, the Muslims will continue to destroy Christian civilization. Most of Catholic culture is non existent, the West weak and decadent. There are not enough numbers of men with backbone to fight the Muslims anyway, and in another generation our numbers will be even smaller, as
Deletewe abort and birth control ourselves out of existence. When God decides, only a miracle like that at Lepanto will save us. Pope Francis and men like him (most of the VII clergy in the west) will continue to poison most minds with their perverted ideas of "religion," as they know the mostly clueless sheep are easy pickins' for spreading their heresies.

I was at confession today at a NO parish. Two women in their 60's were talking loudly (even though St Paul specifically tells women not to be prattling on inside the Church). Anyway, one is saying she used to be episcopalian another is saying she used to be Anglican. The one says to the other that they were happy to be Catholic now but it doesn't matter which church you go to as long as you love God.
DeleteMy question is this, How would these incorrect notions be corrected? This is what or probably similar to waht all novus ordo Catholics believe or understand.The instruction in the faith is so far gone in the last 50 years how on earth would you get these two prattling old birds to understand and believe that outside The Catholic Church there is no salvation? God can and does work miracles but I have no idea how you would begin to sweep away this novus order garbage which can and will be completely swept away.
I pray that these beasts will not escape justice, that God, through the intercession of His Most Holy Mother, will soon make them die in agony. This would be merciful as well as just, as they might perhaps, if made to die slowly, see the state of their own rotten souls and make their peace with the Almighty God.
ReplyDeleteISIS is in real trouble. What they do, shows what spirit they are of.
