The number of men who admit to regularly lusting after women viapornography
WHAT DOES THE CHURCH TEACH ABOUT SUICIDE? Suicide is contrary to love for the living God (CCC 2281). As it does for all grave acts, the Church also teaches that both full knowledge and deliberate consent must be present for the grave act of suicide to become a mortal sin: Mortal sin requires full knowledge and complete consent. It presupposes knowledge of the sinful character of the THE CHURCH'S POSITION ON "TRANSGENDERISM" Those who espouse “transgenderism” argue that a human person is assigned their gender at birth, based on their observed anatomy.

CAN CATHOLICS GET WOKE? One example of how this happens is in connection with the Christian concept of repentance. Under threat of cancelation, people caught on the wrong side of wokeness will often repeat some version of the phrase doing the work in their apology: “Yes, I see where I was wrong, and I am committed now to doing the work.”. On its face, this phrase might strike us as a harmless and even helpful HOW YOU CAN PERSONALLY CONSOLE JESUS IN GETHSEMANE As the CDW notes, we find devotion to the Sacred Heart throughout the Middle Ages, but it goes from being a personal devotion to aliturgical feast
ANGER | CATHOLIC ANSWERS Anger, the desire of vengeance. Its ethical rating depends upon the quality of the vengeance and the quantity of the passion.

THE SCRUPLES OF LUTHER AND THÉRÈSE In the sixteenth century, Martin Luther rebelled against the Catholic Church, with sola fide, “faith alone,” being one of the core Lutheran (and anti-Catholic) doctrines.What led Luther to promote this teaching—that faith, to the exclusion of human works, is what savespeople?

THE BLOOD OF THE COVENANT Notice that when Jesus speaks of the contents of the chalice he says, “this is my blood of the covenant.”This is a direct allusion to the “blood of the covenant” that Moses sprinkled on the people to ratify the Mosaic Covenant on Mount Sinai (Exod. 24:8). DO CATHOLICS AND ORTHODOX HAVE THE SAME BIBLE? Answer: No, the Eastern Orthodox have a slightly different canon of Scripture. Everything in the Catholic canon is included in the Eastern Orthodox canon, but they have some additional parts: The reason for this is that while the New Testament canon was essentially universally agreed upon by the fourth century, minor variations in the OldHOMOSEXUALITY

Mary is revealed to be “full of grace” in Luke 1:28. 2. Mary is revealed to be the fulfillment of the prophetic “Daughter of Zion” of Zech. 2:10; Zeph. 3:14-16;Isaiah 12:1-6, etc.
THE SEVEN GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT The proper exercise of the gifts, in turn, produce the fruits of the Spirit in the life of the Christian: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, modesty, self-control, and chastity (Gal. 5:22–23). The goal of this cooperation among virtues, gifts, and fruits is the attainment of theeight-fold
THE BOOK OF EZEKIEL
The Book of Ezekiel. Ezekiel is the third of the major prophets. His name, which in Hebrew is Yehezq’el (= God strengthens) was very much in keeping with the mission God planned for him. A member of a priestly family, he was taken to Babylon in the first deportation (597 B.C.), along with his wife, King Jehoiachin, and all his court (2Kings
THE WOMAN OF REVELATION 12 The vision contains “fusion imagery,” in which one symbol is composed of elements from several different things. For example, the four living creatures John sees around God’s throne (4:6–8) are a fusion of elements from the cherubim seen in Ezekiel (Ezek. THE SAINT WHO BEAT SCRUPULOSITY By the turn of the year 1546, Martin Luther had been suffering decades of ill health, including vertigo, tinnitus, kidney and bladder stones, and, near the end, heart disease.Some scholars believe that his laundry list of internal complaints likely was exacerbated by the stress of disputes with the Vatican over his heresies and with other Reformers he believed were engaging in heresies. WHAT DOES THE CHURCH TEACH ABOUT SUICIDE? Suicide is contrary to love for the living God (CCC 2281). As it does for all grave acts, the Church also teaches that both full knowledge and deliberate consent must be present for the grave act of suicide to become a mortal sin: Mortal sin requires full knowledge and complete consent. It presupposes knowledge of the sinful character of the QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CATHOLIC FAITH & CATHOLIC CHURCH Questions and Answers About the Catholic Faith.

CAN CATHOLICS RECEIVE THE COVID-19 VACCINE? Jimmy Akin: So the Church hasn’t issued a magisterial statement on this, but it has in the past—and Catholic moral theologians have, you know, assessed this issue, have assessed the principles that go into evaluating particular vaccines. And actually the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has a very good statement on their website. You can look it up, their website is usccb.org. WHAT JORDAN PETERSON GETS WRONG ABOUT JESUS In his provocative work At the Origins of Modern Atheism, the late Jesuit theologian Michael J. Buckley notes the abiding prestige of Jesus Christ as a moral authority during—and despite—the Enlightenment.Even secular thinkers turned to Jesus for guidance on how best to live. This comes as a surprise, since the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries were marked by an unprecedented rise in HOW YOU CAN PERSONALLY CONSOLE JESUS IN GETHSEMANE How You Can Personally Console Jesus in Gethsemane The Feast of the Sacred Heart centers on Jesus' agony in the garden—and what we cando about it
FIVE WAYS TO PREPARE FOR COMMUNION The great Father of the Church St. Maximus the Confessor tell us that there is deep symbolic meaning in the scene just described by St. Mark. This meaning has to do with the preparation of our souls and bodies for participation in the spiritual nourishment the Savior offers us in the Blessed Sacrament of his Most Holy Body and Blood, whose glorious feast we celebrate today. IS THE COVID VACCINE THE MARK OF THE BEAST? Ramming an intermuscular injection needle into someone’s forehead would be painful and not deliver the vaccine where it needs to be, and that’s where they don’t give vaccines. So the idea that the COVID vaccine would be the mark of the beast also fails on the location of the body where it’s given.

WHEN TO STAY HOME FROM MASS The Code of Canon Law states: On Sundays and other holy days of obligation, the faithful are obliged to assist at Mass. They are also to abstain from such work or business that would inhibit the worship to be given to God, the joy proper to the Lord’s Day, or the due relaxation of mind and body (canon 1247).

THE BLOOD OF THE COVENANT Notice that when Jesus speaks of the contents of the chalice he says, “this is my blood of the covenant.”This is a direct allusion to the “blood of the covenant” that Moses sprinkled on the people to ratify the Mosaic Covenant on Mount Sinai (Exod. 24:8). HOW ST. CATHERINE BROUGHT THE POPE BACK TO ROME The popes had lived in France for 67 years, all of Catherine of Siena’s life and then some, when she decided to visit Pope Gregory XI (r. 1370–1378) in the summer of 1376. Catherine spent three months in Avignon tirelessly working to realize her dream of the pope’s returning to Rome. Gregory resisted and demurred, but shepersisted, and

Why Pray to Mary? Because Jesus has given us his Blessed Mother as our great spiritual mother (Rev.12:17), a heavenly advocate who intercedes for us. Some Christians will ask, “Why pray to Mary when we can go directly to Jesus?”. And yet they have no problem asking others here on earth to pray for them, instead of simply and solely praying HOW ST.

THE BLESSED VIRGIN'S GUIDE TO CATHOLIC MODESTY It is discreet (CCC 2522).

Imitation is using someone or something as a model for one’s own actions; mimicry is to attempt to create anexternal
WHY WAS THE TERM HOLY GHOST REPLACED BY HOLY SPIRIT Answer: The term has nothing to do with rites. It was replaced only in the English language.

IS LYING EVER RIGHT? It may be that: (1) The immorality of lying admits of exceptions such that there is no objective evil, or at least no subjective evil (guilt), in lying to the thugs; or (2) a very careful definition of “lying” will show that speaking falsely to the thugs is not a lie at all. Great and holy thinkers have wrestled with both possibilities,but
HOMOSEXUALITY
Every human being is called to receive a gift of divine sonship, to become a child of God by grace. However, to receive this gift, we must reject sin, including homosexual behavior—that is, acts intended to arouse or stimulate a sexual response regarding a person of the samesex.
WHAT HAPPENED TO HEAD COVERINGS AT MASS? It was mandated in the 1917 Code of Canon Law . Canon 1262 states: 1. It is desirable that, consistent with ancient discipline, women be separated from men in church. 2. Men, in a church or outside a church, while they are assisting at sacred rites, shall be bare-headed, unless the approved mores of the people or peculiar circumstances of☰
