Wondering and wandering through history, searching for heresy, CATECHISM BY MEME

Going to post this every Sunday in the hopes that critics of the Catholic Church would at least be informed about what we do and don’t believe. In a typical Sunday Catholic Mass, we say the name of +Jesus 12 times, “Lord” 19 times, God 15 times, and phrases like “lamb of God” “Holy Spirit” “Father” or “Christ” another ≈20 times The congregation says the name of Mary TWICE, once in reference to her giving birth to Jesus, and once asking her and all the angels and saints (“and you, my brothers and sisters”) to pray for us (“pray for me to the Lord, our God”), unless her name is mentioned in the Gospel reading. The first half of Mass is about God’s word (Old Testament, Psalm, New Testament, and Gospel readings); the second half is entirely about Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross for our sake. The Mass is the pinnacle and purpose of Christian faith, and the Eucharist is the source and summit of life. There’s nothing more important in Christian practice.

If your Bible doesn’t have 73 books, you’re following a table of contents established by people who rejected the New Testament and Christ himself

I will know America is being made “great again” when politicians and activists just start saying “Shut up, satantist” to reporters

Catholics worldwide had the following Scripture proclaimed at all Masses today: Exodus 22:20-26 Psalm 18:2-4, 47, 51 1 Thessalonians 1:5-10 Matthew 22:34-40 Anyone who says the Catholic Church hates or hides scripture is either a fool or a liar.

Why do anti-Catholics have such a problem with Peter being “the Rock” on which Christ built His Church? He used Abraham to establish His chosen people and Moses to establish His Law. Do they really hate Catholicism that much?

The “chik-chk” sound when people grab or move guns in TV and movies is just dumb If your firearm makes that sound, throw it away, because it’s garbage

Protestants conveniently ignore the fact that the "Reformation" was launched with the help of secular rulers at a time when the Catholic Church was busy defending Europe from the Ottoman Turks (Muslims). The Protestants left the defense of Europe to the Catholics and exploited the situation for their own advantage. Pope Pius V mustered a navy from Catholic countries to defeat the Muslims in the Battle of Lepanto in 1571, while Protestants worked against the Catholic Church in Europe.

In 1593, the English parliament under Elizabeth I established the length of 1 mile as 8 furlongs, or 5280 feet. Don’t let a Limey make fun of you for the way we measure distance in the USA, we got it from them.

2020 was the perfect time for “anti-fascists” and “no kings” to show they’re serious They were the ones telling the rest of us to stay home or we’d kill old people

There’s a lot there I’ll say this: Idolatry is worship of a false god Prayer *IS* asking someone. You conflate it with worship Kecharitomene is not simple “full of grace” He didn’t pull out a door hinge or repeat, repeat, double down, repeat, and then institute the “door” metaphor

Those who scorn or mock the holy liturgies of the Catholic Mass are doing the devil’s work

“The Catholics ignore the Bible” is a direct attack on the “liturgy of the word,” the first half of the Mass in which the OT, Psalms, an epistle, and a passage from a gospel is read. Mockery of the Eucharist (the liturgy is the second half of Mass) is mockery of Christ himself. That’s why satanists steal consecrated hosts, to perform a mockery in their black masses

Catholics worldwide had this Scripture proclaimed at Mass today: Isaiah 45:1, 4-6 Psalm 96:1, 3-5, 7-10 1 Thessalonians 1:1-5 Matthew 22:15-21 Anyone who says the Church hides or hates Scripture is a fool or a liar.

If only Protestants would watch this and honestly seek Truth
Protestantism has no rebuttal to this.
