The Pope is coming...

[Cepha]

Who's going to see him?

I'm going to try to see him.

[I.M.Apologetics]

not me
some people from my school are!

[Cepha]

It's going to be tight.

I'm going to contact my local Monsignors to see how I can get in!

[I.M.Apologetics]

I wonder how many anti-Catholics will be there... boooo to them

[emily445455]

I won't be.

I'm sure Security will be relieved!

[emily445455]

...? If I went I wouldn't do anything...I'm not one of those crazy Christians who kills everything I don't believe is right. Like those who blow up abortion clinics and such.

[I.M.Apologetics]

sarcasm is a dangerous tool

[emily445455]

I'm confused. Sarcasm isn't portrayed easily online.....

[I.M.Apologetics]

well i dont see a reason why Cephas would be serious

[emily445455]

Well idk...maybe he thought I'd try to asassinate the pope if I went, lol.

[cradlecathlic27]

A Christian would not do that lol and you are a Christian!

[righteousone]

Well, I went to the Vatican in October, received a fax from my hotel saying I was allowed an audience with the pope because I wrote to him months before telling him of my beautiful Epiphany with God and I received an answer. I was so excited, pope Benedict blessed me THIS CLOSE and I received communion at the Vatican as well. (now I can die).
Anyway, I was lucky. Wait til you all see the masses of people at Yankee stadium and Madison Square Garden. I love the pope, he is the Vicar of Christ. The "glue" that holds it all together.

[Cepha]

It's impossible to see him now.

There are no tickets to the events.

I wish he would've held Mass at Central Park.

But, while I would've loved to have seen him and attend a mass by him, I won't sweat "not" seeing him.

I'll see him when I go to Vatican City later this year and receive Communion at The Holy See!

[Cepha]

Habemus Papam in The United States!

He has landed!

The successor of the Biblical Saint Peter is on American Soil!

[Cepha]

It's amazing!

This Holy Priest carries with him 2,000 years of Christianity.

He holds The Keys to The Kingdom of Heaven that Jesus handed down to Saint Peter.

Only him. That's it. No other Christian leader. Only The Pope.

It's breathtaking!

It's historical.

Jesus chose leaders of The Church and they chose men to replace them and those men chose men to replace them and so on throughout the the two millenia of Christianity.

Cepha, I have that picture of christ. They sent it to me for free in the mail, I carry it around when I feel down, then I look at that and I'm alright.

LOVE THE POPE!!

LOVE THE POPE!!

I'm using it to remind myself of why I began this site.

Da' Pope is coooool!

When has the President of the US ever gone out to meet someone at the airport? Never.

Christ's Kingdom before any worldly kingdom!

[Cepha]

The Seminaries are full?

Pope Benedict is attracting more people than Pope John Paul II?

Catholicism exploding in the US?

Whatever happened to "The Catholic Church is dieing" proponents?

Never.

Not 2,000 years ago.

Not yesterday.

Not today.

Not tomorrow.

What Christ created will be here until He returns to His Bride!

Amen!
