Can you and your wife attend the gathering, and bring a news crew with you?
 
This is why we need to start getting ready for martyrdom now… Martyrdom is what is going to have to come before we see any restoration of the faith and morality in the west. Look at Russia and how strong the orthodox church is becoming in the east right now… this is no doubt due to the countless martyr’s who gave their lives to God at the hands of communist regimes during the 20th century. How many martyrs have we had to counteract the evil of the last 50 years in the west?

We need to start preparing now. Martyr’s don’t conjur up the necessary virtue for their sacrifice in the hours leading up to their execution. A martyr’s courage comes from the fact that they have already given their entire life over to God (martyrdom is simply the natural end of such a life). We have to start living like martyr’s today: we need to sacrifice! We need to speak out about the evil in our culture even if it means being marginalized by society and our friends. If somebody at work talks about being in an aldulturous relationship, we must speak up to try and save that person’s soul even if there are unpleasant consequences.

We have to be willing to lose our friends, our prestige, our jobs… And I know how scary this is (I don’t know about you, but putting these words into practice makes me shake to the bone). That said, if we aren’t willing to lose everything in our lives for God now, how will we be willing to lose our lives for God when that evil day finally comes?

God bless and don’t despair, our Lord will never give us more then we can handle!
 
As a Catholic, Solider and a member of AMS Im disturbed by this but I can see how it happened. It was a single Reserve unit in PA. and the Army has disavowed it armytimes.com/article/20130405/NEWS/304050016/Training-material-listing-Catholics-8216-extremists-8217-angers-archdiocese

Some poor guy got told to put together a briefing on extremism and he went to the SPLC website and built the slide show. The sad part is he bought into the SPLC hype and passed it on.

Yours in The Love of His Sacred Heart,

Just to be clear the SPLC doesn’t declare Catholicism as a group. It’s a small fringe group called the “Radical Traditional Catholics” that they label as hate a group. There views are well outside the views of the Vatican.

They are hate group? I don’t think so. And the article doesn’t say “Radical Traditional Catholic” the presentation blatantly says “Catholicism”.

Your right, STL. Sorry I wasn’t more specific. Its a few small groups they specifically ID. At least one is sedevacantist.

However I do think, at some point, SPLC will go after the entire Church do to teachings on sexuality. They already listed Family Research Council.

This was a phone call to house that my wife answered and they were gathering support via phone calls to list as hate groups anyone who is not on board with certain views. My wife asked are you trying to get Catholics included and the person on the phone said yes and my wife told them to get lost. .

God Bless

Some of the fringe traditionalists might be pains in the rear but they pretty much just spew junk against the Catholic Church that they believe the are part of. However, this creates a view that anybody who goes to a TLM is some sort of bigot.

God bless

According to an Army instructor, that what we are.

radio.foxnews.com/toddstarnes/top-stories/army-labeled-evangelicals-as-religious-extremism.html

My wife got a call where there where gathering support for a petition that would label Catholics as a hate group.

What is going to happen in a few years will Evangelicals and Catholics be formally classified as hate groups by the government.

God Bless

Well, it’s a great way to alienate Latinos, especially if Rubio can get his immigration bill through.

A lot of Latinos are Catholic and others are Protestant or Evangelical.

Probably not something the democrats want to do, considering they needed 72% of Latinos—along with 73% of Asians and 93% of African-Americans—to get Obama just over 51% of the vote.

The FRC earned a place on that list. I’m not sure if you’re aware of the hate-speech their officials engage in and publish.

Well I’ll refrain from judgement until they do. The fact they have only listed fringe groups leads me to believe that they won’t put all Catholics on that list. It would seem a stretch, plus the SPLC does a lot of really good work fighting against hate crimes in this country and I think it seems pretty fitting.

Yes you are correct the Family Research Council is on that list and rightfully so. The make up a lot of pseudo science to espouse their theories about homosexuality that often cause homosexuals to be the targets of hate crimes. I may not agree with the Catholic position on homosexuality, but aside from some outliers the Church doesn’t teach hate it teach compassion. They also have links to active violence in the gay community and to the Klu Klux Klan. In the end, they are just an organization we ought to avoid.

Ah that makes sense. It’s been awhile since I’ve been to one. The SLPC does make the distinction that it isn’t placing those who believe in the TLM on the list. Here is a link to clarify. Granted as for the OP I would like to know are they talking about labeling all Catholics as hate groups or just a specific group?

Do you even realize what you are saying??? Who do you think these “radical traditional Catholics” are? They are your brother and sister Catholics! Your government is lableing them as hate groups, you truly think it is just the fringe radicals??? Because they believe in the TLM? Are you really this naive?

Main stream Catholicism does not and will not accept the views which are against truth, not now, not ever; if She would She would cease being truth.

It’s time for you to choose sides, God or His enemy. It is your choice.

We are very quickly heading to a major persecution in this country, in the name of “tolerance”. Is is scary to watch but watch. Good is called evil and evil good…sound familiar? Isa. 5:20-21

20Ah! Those who call evil good, and good evil,

who change darkness to light, and light into darkness,

who change bitter to sweet, and sweet into bitter!

21Ah! Those who are wise in their own eyes,

prudent in their own view!

Rough times are near for Mother Church, and especially those who stand firm in the truth. I hope this Church of the USA is ready, the fight for our salvation is near. My double edged sword is sharp and ready for battle!!!

How did they earn it? By standing on truth??? What is hate speech, whatever you do not believe in? Where are we going in this formerly free country…

Is it ok with you if only some Catholics are labled as hate groups for standing on traditional values?

Dear Deacon Gary,

Our society is not headed toward persecution of Catholics and the Truth we stand for. We are already being persecuted. The rough times are not near, they are already here.

I testified at my state legislature recently, against a bill which violates our religious beliefs. The contempt against Catholics was open, the comments I received as I left the hearing room are unrepeatable. Newspaper editors don’t seem to care how their columnists or “letters to the editor” writers blatantly slam Catholicism. I have overheard digs against Catholics walking to church, in the grocery store line, at the workplace, by my own relatives and friends, and elsewhere.

And I have not heard a word from the clergy, at least in my city, talking to Catholics about this situation. Catholics are not being geared for battle.
