This is really sad, and a comment on the brokenness of western culture.

We’re living in neo-pagan times. We Catholics must stay strong and support each other now and during the coming duress.
 
There is nothing new under the sun, in sin or virtue, so brace yourselves, there will be more. Don’t let the shock of the sin overrule the need to pray for the sinner. Stay connected to Our Lord no matter what happens.
 
Satanism is alive and well, getting bolder all the time.

The priests handled this well by the grace of God! Blessed be God forever.

Let’s not go from one extreme to another. Not everyone is doing this and we never lived in a time where there was no sin. Pray for these people.

There will be no coming duress unless we do not form Men’s Groups, Women’s Groups, and Children’s Groups. Jesus told us trials would come.

Peace,

A very sad group of people who feel the need to do this sort of thing. I don’t think they realize how we actually receive this type of action and our reaction to them. We pray for their souls. The more we pray the greater the struggle for them. The more we pray the more they will see (even in small amounts) their errors.

I am forced to agree with Capt America. These are only symptoms of a deeper sickness. The symptoms will increase as they do with any sickness once realized is there. It is possible to heal but it will take time (as this didnt happen overnight) and the willingness of Christianity to work for that healing rather than sit on the sidelines and watch and to take our faith seriously (which I believe is part of that sickness).
 
How poetic would it have been if she tripped and fell as she was headed to the alter? Not to get hurt, but just to embarrass her and keep her from accomplishing her goal.

I don’t understand the mind of this sort of person. They must know they get nothing accomplished and only make themselves look foolish. Maybe they should go to Russia and try this there. Didn’t work out so well for the last group.

Note the organization claimed the protests were against the Vatican’s objections to abortion. While this is truly egregious and disrespectful behavior, it is inspired by the same baby killing obsession that has gripped the Left in this country as well. Watch Sarah Silverman do her schtick to support abortion rights…or for the Left Abortion Rites. They worship false gods and this is what results. Truly sad that a young and foolish woman is used in such a fashion. She has no idea how she’s being exploited.

How is that working out? I cannot believe some loon doesn’t support jihad against them but I’ve not heard of any Islamic group or imam issuing a fatwa.

What I don’t understand is how they think running naked into a church and behaving like a lunatic is “freeing,” or somehow a good form of protest. And anyone who advocates “sextremism” lacks credibility in my book. I truly do not understand the extreme feminist argument. They want rights, but by parading around naked and doing these things, they are only reinforcing stereotypes and supporting the sexist ideas of women as spectacle, of “selling sex.” It does not make sense.

If they want to support women’'s rights, they can start by covering up, and acting with reserve and decency. Acting like respectable, intelligent, tolerant human beings goes a lot further than acting like this. No one is really going to listen to “shock tactics” like this; they are only going to laugh at them, be disgusted by them, or dismiss them altogether. And if they want the Church to change its policy (Which it won’t), crashing one of our most important Holy Days and disrespecting our faith is not a good impression.
 
What do they honestly wish to accomplish by this? They think we’re going to say, “Oh, since you disrupted us naked and screaming, we are going to change the reality of morality (as if we could!) for YOU!” 🤷? I hope the less extreme feminists see stuff like this and perhaps reconsider their stances.

They think these tactics are no different than the suffragettes who chained themselves to government buildings in protest.

It must be noted that they also tried, IIRC this in Bethlehem Christmas Eve, to the disapproval of the Christians and Muslims who make up the city’s population.
 
I’ve been suspicious of who actually is behind the Femen protests as well. It seems a bit strange how often there members chant or write slogans in English instead of the local language.
 
Well, what can you expect when their ideology is built around ‘sextremism, atheism and feminism.’

Or when the “cult of man” which deifies himself, paints on the body as she did, “I am God!”
