Cult of Feelings

From Our Lady's Tears:





~Our Lord Jesus Christ to St. Faustina."

But, then Oprah wouldn't have a show and millions to play with (dollars, that is), the present POTUS would be back in Illinois, doing whatever it is he did there (probably not so good!) and the Catholic Church would actually be healthy, sound and vibrant in all ways!
Feelings...nothing more than feelings...yeah; well; get over it!
(Says the crabby Irish priest!!)

I agree with Father and I would add that the cult of feelings have been manufactured and mass produced by the Pro-testants who wont accept anything but a "feel good" religion. They produce at least 4 television shows running 24-7 on my public access TV - no cable and I've never heard a person over there yet say anything about picking up one's cross.
If a persons faith is based on feeling good then I wonder how their faith is withstanding the economic depression we are experiencing. If they suffer enough do they ditch their cushy idea of Jesus? Do they throw out the baby Jesus with the bath water?

Indeed Belinda

If my faith was based on 'emotion' alone I'd have apostaized ages ago
