WHILE NOT ALL NON-CATHOLIC PRESIDENTS ACCEPT ALL CATHOLIC MORAL TEACHINGS, MOST NON CATHOLIC PRESIDENT PROMOTE SOME CATHOLIC TEACHINGS AND THUS SHOULD GET PAPAL NON-CATHOLIC AWARDS


 I still hope President Trump’s peace making efforts, a part of what Pope Leo calls all of us to do in his new Apostolic Exhortation, should enable Pope Leo to give the President a Papal non Catholic award.

And this certainly qualifies:

US President Donald Trump has reinstated Columbus Day, celebrating the great Catholic explorer who led to the Christianisation of the Americas and the eventual end of human sacrifice there 

Columbus has been the victim of anti Catholic black legends which falsely ascribe crimes against natives to him that were in fact later committed by non Catholics in the USA 

In his 1892 encyclical, Quarto Abeunte Saeculo, Pope Leo XIII praised Christopher Columbus in the strongest terms: 

'Columbus is ours; since if a little consideration be given to the particular reason of his design in exploring the mare tenebrosum, and also the manner in which he endeavoured to execute the design, it is indubitable that the Catholic faith was the strongest motive for the inception and prosecution of the design; so that for this reason also the whole human race owes not a little to the Church'

No.

No president who lies, lives in adultery, abuses the Office of the President for his and his family's personal gain, uses the armed forces against his own citizens, works to subvert the Constitution, and attacks as retribution the free press, academic institutions, lawyers and law firms, should be granted a papal honor.

Why so negative? Look at the good and not the bad, which means giving up reading the Democrats talking points.

I suspect Trump has reinstated Columbus Day for all the wrong reasons!

TJM said...

LOL - you just described Clinton and Biden! D you think, at all. Jonathan Turley, pre-eminent US Constitutional Scholar believes President Trump is restoring the rule of law which was trampled on by Obama and Biden. You are truly pathetic.

TJM said...

Glad you gave President Trump credit for restoring Columbus Day after the braindead, evil Democrats tossed it!

By the way, did the Diocese use to administer intelligence tests for its candidates to the priesthood? If so, I can't believe K passed on. He has a cartoonish view of the world

K is just trying to deflect attention from another pervert in the Democratic Party:

what could that possibly be, little benny, subservient to Third World savages in Englanistan?

big benny said...

Englanistan?

You betray your racism!

TJM said...

No, I point out your lack of patriotism and common sense. I am connected to some of the most prominent families in England with connection by friendship to the House of Windsor and they are appalled that so-called liberals are no longer capable of defending the Magna Carta and the Rule of Law. Be careful because you sound like someone a Muslim might toss off of a tall building!

Fr. Michael J. Kavanaugh said...

B Benny - Ooooh, watch out, TJM is "connected" with some of the "most prominent families" in England. That means he's buddy-buddy with Gopi Hinduja, Sir Leonard Blavatnik, Piotr Dabkowski, Lakshi Mittal and the likes.

He'll get you banned from tea at Claridge's!!!

(I sense in TJM a bit of Hyacinth Bucket - That's BOO-KAY - in his claiming a "connection" with the son-in-law of the former chief yeoman warder at the Tower of London whose other daughter was married to the head of the stonecutters' guild who helped restore Windsor after the great fire of 1992.)

K this will make your day: no one is above the law!

He's re-instated it for one reason, to wit, keeping his salivating Cult Members on their toes. (Note the predictable and lamentable response from TJM.)

I’m totally patriotic and proud to be a citizen of a tolerant inclusive multicultural democracy as is our King Charles who wanted to be known as defender of the faiths. You obviously never set foot on English soil!

Former PM of Englandistan to head up Gaza board of peace, guess Trump not on your wavelength!

Watch out! Under UK’s speech restriction laws, you might be charged and convicted of racism and thus never to be seen and most importantly to be heard again.
