The Bishop of Green Bay has not uttered a peep about this.
...When you think of Christmas, what comes to mind? Holiday cheer, joy to the world, getting together with family, Christmas carols, hope, Jesus…Satan?
If you thought that I meant to spell Santa and mixed up the letters, you would be wrong. Apparently, the National Railroad Museum in Green Bay felt it was necessary to have a tree representing the Satanic Temple of Wisconsin in their Festival of Trees display this year....
(Believe it or not, the population of Green Bay is heavily Catholic--it's in the 70% range.)
If the Bishop of Green Bay issued a statement expressing serious disapproval of this moronic move by the museum and calling for the removal of this offense against Christianity and Catholicism, he would be acting like a Catholic Bishop leading a flock.
Nope.
The old "That's not our business" line doesn't cut it at all, Excellency. It IS your--and our--business. The worship of Satan is THE clear and present danger to the country, the world, and certainly to Catholics in Green Bay.
Do something, Excellency!
Men with out chests

Feast of St. John of the Cross, Doctor of the Church
“Strive to preserve your heart in peace; let no event of this world disturb it.”
“The endurance of darkness is the preparation for great light.”
“The soul that is quick to turn to speaking and conversing is slow to turn to God.”
“It is best to learn to silence the faculties and to cause them to be still so that God may speak.”
“Who teaches the soul if not God?”
“What we need most in order to make progress is to be silent before this great God with our appetite and with our tongue, for the language he best hears is silent love.”
Faith “is like the feet wherewith the soul journeys to God, and love is the guide that directs it.”
“Contemplation is nothing else but a secret, peaceful, and loving infusion of God, which if admitted, will set the soul on fire with the Spirit of love.”
“Take God for your spouse and friend and walk with him continually, and you will not sin and will learn to love, and the things you must do will work out prosperously for you.”
“To saints, their very slumber is a prayer.”
“Love consists not in feeling great things but in having great detachment and in suffering for the Beloved.”
“The soul that is attached to anything however much good there may be in it, will not arrive at the liberty of divine union. For whether it be a strong wire rope or a slender and delicate thread that holds the bird, it matters not, if it really holds it fast; for, until the cord be broken the bird cannot fly.”
Your comment would seem to espouse the heresy of Quietism.

Your points are laudable but if christians are silent and seeking oersonal serenity while satan is worshipped in the public square we are salt that has lost its flavor, useless.
ReplyDeletePersonal, rather.
DeleteSt John of the Cross did not have children or grandchildren to whom he'd like to leave a country.
ReplyDeleteThis is a simple situation where a man needs to just go there and physically remove the tree and display and destroy it. No discussions or arguments w/ staff, just take manly action.
