Is not it incredible that evil - as we have seen in the Third Reich - is preparing so intense, has institutions, money, power, Corps spirit. And we? What do we do? Sleep? His family's, the Lord in his sleep. Yes, the HIS. But we are his people? Do we want to be? Are we doing something about it? Is it the man, the wife of another, if you never talk to each other for each other and nothing is ...? No, no we are not the His God ... Otherwise, again after the Third Reich - and nobody knows how it could happen ... All had apparently been sleeping ...

pray is not a chummy chat, but ritualized speech, the form of language is as important as the intimate understanding.

liberation theology? Yes, I'll tell you what is the best liberation theology ... It is called Eucharist.
"The Evangelist John recounts that when he and Peter heard Mary Magdalene's news, they ran to the sepulchre each trying as it were to outstrip the other (cf. Jn 20: 3ff.). The Fathers of the Church have seen in their haste to reach the empty tomb an exhortation to compete in the only legitimate race between believers: the competition in seeking Christ… And what can be said of Mary Magdalene? She stood weeping by the empty tomb with the sole desire to know where they had taken her Lord. She encounters him and only recognizes him when he calls her by name (cf. Jn 20: 11-18). If we seek the Lord with a simple and sincere mind, we too will find him; indeed, he himself will come to meet us; he will make us recognize him, he will call us by name, that is, he will admit us to the intimacy of his love.” (Pope Benedict XVI. Audience At 18 April 2007)

The priest, the sacrament of reconciliation is to always consider it his duty to make the words and the way he turns to the penitent, the merciful love of God shine through. Like the father in the parable of the prodigal son he should take the repentant sinner, help him to rise from sin, he should encourage him to do better and never a compromise with evil to close, but always the way of the Gospel according perfection resume. This beautiful experience of the prodigal son, the father takes place in the whole divine mercy, may in the Sacrament of Reconciliation, the experience of his anyone who confesses. Dear brothers, all this requires that the priest standing at the service of Penance itself is animated by a constant striving for holiness. The Catechism of the Catholic Church makes this claim very high, since it affirms: "The confessor must know ... reliable as a Christian to live, have experience in human affairs and who has fallen eighth, and opposite him behave sensitively. He must love truth, be faithful to the Magisterium of the Church and lead the penitent with patience toward healing and full maturity. He should pray for him and repent, and entrusting him to the mercy of God "(No. 1466).

Many have a lot ... Too much. And so in the end nothing comes out of it.
always ask yourself which of the things you do and your happiness is important to have ... Is it really the career, the position of the title, the influence that money ... Or is it more time with friends, a quiet meal, a book, a long sleep, a good man, the Holy Mass, etc.?

The reversal of reactionary and revolutionary. That's what had happened. And that is what is now truly recognized. What was considered a reactionary (and perhaps was), is now the revolutionaries.

Why you think that the objectives are clear and all would be so likely to placate the people with human and material questions ...? Stop it.
We wegputschen they are ... ;-)
You can not relativize the absolute and the relative absolutize not without losing everything. Thus lost man, as his (subjective) reason (also narrows the mind) in the so-called "Enlightenment" was absolutely, and the (objective) truth by versubjektivierte, first access to the full (often the mind and reason withdrawn truth) and then began to doubt the reason so much that he ultimately lost his mind ... That is tragic.

The phenomenon of time is for a good part of will.
Go just assume that the truth is crazier than fiction.
God will give you all not things that you dream in your wildest dreams. He will give you things that you can not even imagine in your wildest dreams.
Almost the worst mistake in history was the crude materialism and based on imagination of the people that he could examine and analyze everything, to understand, influence and ultimately possess. And nothing is wrong than this childish idea.
Moralia. This is virtually the Botox for the soul. It can be injected and so that the impression of a healthy, good soul awaken. But, like its chemical relative to the body, it unfortunately leads to the fact that the youthful impression is eventually replaced by a sour, if that is beginning to slacken the artificially bulging tissue.
Christianity is the religion of the decision. Decide. It is not decided for you, you will not be forced, and it's not even care. But it counts. You will be counted.
Christianity: Difficult. But possible. And why is it necessary.
"People look at your tongue but do not talk to hear." (FJ Strauss)

Love converted not by command but by example.
The founder of Islam himself lived a violent life - and about his faith experience. How Islam can be peaceful? Either he's as its founder / prophet or its founder / prophet has been the same not live according to its own message. Or the current "peaceful" Islam does not care about the example of Mohammed.
Well, facts can make a really depressing at times.
prayer is energy.
God gives the person next to you the strength to help you. And the choice whether to do it. So He is. He wants to involve people. He wants their free Yes.
Christianity is a crazy religion. But we only talk about any moral applications (not the moral BE), the worst case of sexual morality. That makes this huge adventure so small. An adventure of a God who is so great that He holds the universe in your hand but in this world is immersed, every one knows, loves and calls. The reason for immerses us in His creation and redeemed us by a cruel death on the cross where He died and resurrected. What a huge and crazy story. THE talk we must. That's enough!

The Gospel live less dramatic and read it everyday and. Apocalypse now, not only at a distant day - but less spectacular!

They lived as if it were true. Lo and behold, they were not disappointed.
moralistic gooders, Crazy egomaniacs can be found in politics very often. Why?
The price of the option is to dial.
is in relation to the Mass myself become clear in recent years especially, how beautiful the "standard" is what a treasure we have and what a pleasure it is to delve into the ever-recurring and lower. Not always something to change. This is not rigid. Is solid and reliable. One can not always back the doors to / by moving into a house. Not find many people no longer have the receipt. And many get lost in the house (especially when it is dark). Therefore, we should in my opinion do not play with the liturgy. Something I find, therefore, ever-changing "shows" that are made by people for people, often to produce for themselves and their personal faith (and which are better in the Carnival). But it is not that show individual brothers and sisters, what they all "have it". In any case, not in the show. Because of the fair is for everyone from everything. A "bad production" - like the other day the talk of your parish priest at the Carnival - in the show and many are lost and many lost what they so urgently need. In the Holy Mass, we want to produce or not discuss - but unite us with God - and each other. This interaction is understood, but referred to the whole Church. Those who walks beside us, before us and after us! And the merger is of course only if we all spend about the same same. Otherwise, just this mystical union is broken beyond space and time. All that makes the church so to "temporarily", it makes de facto old / old-prone. But it is forever - and this is reflected not least in the Divine Liturgy and the succession of bishops and popes again as authentic witnesses of the faith from Peter and Paul.
Lord, teach us to dare: Dare to hope, dare to believe, dare to love, dare to share, dare to resist, build to dare, dare to heal, to bridge dare, dare to see, dare to hear, dare to testify and talk, dare to share, dare to kneel, dare to give up and dare to keep, dare to go and dare to stay, dare to dare to ask and answer, dare to deliver, dare to teach and learn to dare, Dare to Lead, dare to serve.
The debt is regretted by love. And love is strengthened by the debt contracted again.
