So what's about them? Quite the topic here actually.

Many Church members will claim that it would be our duty to accept every single one of them and take all that wanna come here, as Christians.

But is this true? Is it mandatory to take anyone?

If we shouldn't, how do you justify that? What's the alternative in the current situation?

In what cases we would need to open borders for refugees?

Would you personally allow a stranger in your house if he asked you:

For tonight?

For a week?

Forever?

its pretty interesting, it basically says that people say "yes" not because they want to help them, but because they want to avoid the "bad ad" for themselves. so they do it for selfish reasons just by pure peer presure

>But is this true? Is it mandatory to take anyone?

I'd say… no

>If we shouldn't, how do you justify that? What's the alternative in the current situation?

If you don't even have enough to take care of your countrymen adequately, how are you going to take care of these people? Also, if you could make the argument that allowing the in your midst would be negative in the long run (cultural degradation, economic rot, spread of Islam, etc) that'd also be fine. Your duty is first to your family: your wife and you kids. If you can justify it as dangerous to your family, then you ought not to do it.

The alternative would be to be really really rich and help them, or to create separate, walled off, controlled areas for them to reside in.

>In what cases we would need to open borders for refugees?

Lots of resources, the people don't seem poisonous, to start. Would help if they were christians or at least sihks or something.

>Would you personally allow a stranger in your house if he asked you:

If I felt moved by the Spirit to do so I would. If not I wouldn't endanger my family like that.

Liked it.

But not exactly what I meant. I was referring to the current situation, especially in Syria and Iraq, not the systemic problem.

Here the measueres are different. Those 5-10mio people are a "dealable" measure for Europe if it wants it to be.

>>4513

>If you don't even have enough to take care of your countrymen adequately, how are you going to take care of these people?

But we have. We have more than enough.

But is this the case? How dangerous are they?

>The alternative would be to be really really rich and help them, or to create separate, walled off, controlled areas for them to reside in.

Is done here. They are in prisons and old barracks atm, and in tents.

>Lots of resources, the people don't seem poisonous, to start. Would help if they were christians or at least sihks or something.

But does this make them really "worthy" of our help? Are we muslims now that ignore and persecute the unbelieving?

I'd say dangerous enough that I'd need some incentive to aid them honestly.

>Is done here. They are in prisons and old barracks atm, and in tents.

Good. Armed guards would help me sleep easier were I you.

>But does this make them really "worthy" of our help? Are we muslims now that ignore and persecute the unbelieving?

Its a start. If they are Christians at least you know you will agree on a fundamental level, even if there are great cultural or ethnic differences. If they are a different faith, especially Islam, this may not be the case. It is immoral to put others above the safety of your own family.

>Feelings are not a good moral compass.

Doctrinally speaking, Spiritual feelings are as reliable as the moral fortitude of the person having them. That is to say; assuming that I don't grow spiritually by the time I've a wife and children to preside over; I'd be forced to agree with you due to my own individual circumstance, and I'd have to use a different measuring stick to determine whether to aid or not.

You cannot be everywhere all the time to protect the others, and there will be women and children around as well. Its better to be safe thn sorry.

That's kind of a double bind, if they've killed or harmed christians. I guess either refuse to help or simply forgive the offence, at it would seem weird to "help" them and just throw them in jail.

Look, you know how barbarous these people are. Having them anywhere in your country will not turn out good, unless there was some kind of program to help them adapt and abandon their ways, which would be unthinkable in our modern progressive "democracies".

When it comes to immigration, the problem is vaster than just what is one to do at that scale.

The problem is that we never mention what happens to the country where people immigrate from, and I don't mean the poor who are willing to risk their lives on boats to go to the Promised Land of Europe (and often find out it's not what they expected, that they'd like to go back home, but can't because they could only buy a one-way trip).

Some countries, even within the EU, are running out of doctors, with less than 1 doctor for 1500 people, because most doctors can make so much more money in another country of the EU, that it'd almost be foolish to stay, especially since people in poorer nations work for their families and send money back home a lot.

That's the real problem. When everyone's leaving a country, and you have richer nations encouraging this, and accusing anyone who is against that of xenophobia, fascism, etc, then the country from where people come can never develop. If everyone leaves, nobody wants to stay. When even those with very little prospect of a career in another country still take the risk to lose their lives for a chance, how will anyone else stay?

Even Greece faces that problem: young people leave. They'd rather work in another country where they are paid much more for the same job (where there is a job to take, too).

Accepting everyone, in the long run, doesn't cause any good. Take care of them when they're there, but solutions must be taken from above and it has to involve the countries of origin. You fix this problem by making people want to stay in their own countries; everyone deserves a nation where they can live happily, get an education, get a job, found a family.

We should all strive for that instead of stealing other nations' youth under the guise of being humanitarian.

Pronlem is also the kind of refugees that exist. Pederasts can "flee" from Russia or Serbia here because they are "oppressed" and we take care of them. While there are really people in need of help. I cannot even describe how much this upsets me.

The Church here takes the right to give people asylum in our Church buildings and the police does not dare to storm them to take people from there. Is this ok?

I thought these fellas were north africans, but even if not, I said "barbarous" not savage. They might not run around half naked scalping people and sacrificing children to the Moon, but they are certainly not on par with the average westerner, that's for dang sure.

I don't know where you live, but much of the time, immigrants will immigrate regularly if they can, if not, they will ask for asylum, and if that doesn't work either, they'll just come, without a passport, pretend they don't remember where they come from, and by law you have to take care of them. I have family in the justice department of things here, and that's how it works. So perhaps asylum and immigration are very different things where you live, but in other places it's just a modality of the same thing: moving to another country.

When a country like Libya falls, you have tons of immigrants/asylum seekers, and you don't know who's a recently freed Libyan and who's a former torturer who really doesn't want to be around when the people strike back. There's an asylum not far from where I live, and they keep stabbing each other and molesting passers-by. They come from the same countries as the immigrants. The only difference is that the immigrants have been granted access while the asylum seeker has not. Asylum seekers here do the same as the immigrant, they sell drugs, which is generally why they're here. And by "immigrant", I mean Africans exclusively here. Out of 100 asylum seekers in that shelter, they are all Africans.

But yeah, keep thinking asylum and immigration are completely unrelated and that it's not about going to another country.

It's simple: you go to hell forever.


 No.4827

>>4752

>That's it? They will literally fight God and go to heaven?

Yes, and you, for having eaten the body of Christ in a state of mortal sin (such as drinking alcohol or missing mass) will rot in hell forever because God loves you.

Catholicism: where fighting God is literally less dangerous than missing mass once or drinking the Holy Blood because it's alcohol, and a drug, and therefore a mortal sin. Enjoy!


 No.4832

>>4824

>So perhaps asylum and immigration are very different things where you live, but in other places it's just a modality of the same thing: moving to another country.

No. This is not the situation in law. I am sure that the law is abused but it is wrong to give in to this wrongdoing and accept it. Asylum is not immigration and the people that want to change this are criminals.

>But yeah, keep thinking asylum and immigration are completely unrelated and that it's not about going to another country.

I will because this is what asylum means.

Indeed, so you have the benefit of knowing that I didn't really mean it, while others don't benefit from that, they know you actually mean it. The point being, nobody can know for sure, and that's where other people get as annoyed as you do when I tell you your own stuff.

>You mistake being true to one's beliefs with trying to provoce.

Giving you a taste of your own medicine, in a lighter form, since you know I'm just pretending to be you. It's just forced empathy. Think about it next time you patronise a non-Catholic. Maybe you'll present things in a way that doesn't guarantee immediate antagonising.

Milk before meat, right? I think that's in the Bible.

>But I would have been interested in the way he explains it

I know, but don't hold your breath.

> If I ask something it does not mean I don't know it, and if I defend a position it does not mean I hold it.

I know what it means but the church doesn’t obscurantise. I think the summa theologica and the catechism are open for everyone to access.

I commit mortal sins quite regulary. So I'd have to go to confession each sunday morning before mass. But there is none held and I'd had to go to the capital for the next one which would take me about an hour and make it impossible to attend my local parish

What do?

I just mean… if the Church doesn't take it this seriously, if they did they'd hold confession each sunday, why should I? Lies this within my responsibility?

Also what if I miss something at confession? If I just forget it?

If I wouldn't dare to say something?

So it would be better to not take communion at all and confess commiting sacrilege asap?

>>4966

I am glad that checked this thread for your reply. It would have pained me to find this on sunday afternoon.

>I commit mortal sins quite regulary

We’re all in that boat, probably. As my confessor would say: 'It is a battle'. It is one of the things keeping me from becoming a priest. I am currently in sin, too

There are two ways for this and I hope you answer before I go to mass tomorrow so that I can reply. First question: Novus ordo? No bias here, as I explained once earlier without my flag on, second question: is there a monastery or at least some some orthodox as opposed to heterodox congregation somewhere near you?

Now my answer to your question: you could ask a priest you know will give proper counsel for confessions every fortnight.

You could truly go before sunday mass, as I am thinking I might do tomorrow, thanks to praying the rosary.

And you should not go to communion under any circumstances, if in mortal sin. Or if you are having doubts about something, maybe if you had a bottle of beer too much yesterday.

This is painful, and I know what you are talking about, as this is how I have been doing it for this year as one of my NY resolutions after a priest told me that it is sacrilege. And I don’t ever want to do it again, it’s the worst feeling. It is, to me, the greatest desire ti receive the Lord in the blessed sacrament, I will not lie. Communion most of the time is the only solace in Novus Ordo mass because you have to endure a lot sometimes. I am glad that since I understand mass more of an unbloody sacrifice and act of penance, too, that this dampens the pointlessness of a sinner being among the faithful. I am not surprised that everyone goes if they think it’s the sole purpose of mass.

Until Pius X. told the laity to dare receiving what they NEED as often as they can, people barely even went to receive it out of awe.

Anyway, everyone goes? Let them look at you, it’s not their concern. They’re probably doing somethign really dumb. In my EF parish, that I usually attend, so many people don’t go to communion that nobody heeds any weird thoughts. After all, since everyone goes in Novus Ordo, WHAT WOULD THAT BOY HAVE DONE?!?!?!?!?!? Fuck these inverted tax collectors

Mind that you aren’t being judged, I have been there, too.

>>4976

>Padre Pio thinks it's OK, if we mess up

Yeah, he also denied absolution to people who weren’t contrite—which he could read from their souls. Messing up shouldn’t be routine.

And yes, Zizek is great. Probably the only communist who understands Christianity. Watch 'a perverts guide to ideology', it’s really good.


 No.5051

>Novus ordo?

Yes, my local priest does it like this. I have never even talked with him about that though, might ask him for the reason.

>second question: is there a monastery or at least some some orthodox as opposed to heterodox congregation somewhere near you?

Not sure. Probably not. Depends on what "near" is. If near is two hours by car, then possibly.

I'm not even sure which the next monastary is, nor how I would approach there. Just knock? Phone them? Write a letter?

> you could ask a priest you know will give proper counsel for confessions every fortnight.

I would have to look for this priest though. Maybe my priest can do something, if I ask him. Will see when I get to talk with him.

>Anyway, everyone goes? Let them look at you, it’s not their concern. They’re probably doing somethign really dumb. In my EF parish, that I usually attend, so many people don’t go to communion that nobody heeds any weird thoughts.

I'm 100% sure that no one is aware here that you are not to receive it in a state of mortal sin.

The only ones not receiving it are children and "divorced" here.

>The only ones not receiving it are children and "divorced" here.

Children could receive it, if baptised.

>if the Church doesn't take it this seriously… why should I

Because we need to go back to the times where we don’t have to pry into the sacristy to ask for a sacrament that is more important than communion. By showing that there is a need for it, things will change.

>If I wouldn't dare to say something?

That’s why there is a priest, he might guide you through it.

As long as you aren’t holding anything back on purpose, you are are absolved of all your sins. If you remember something you need to confess, you can always do it next time. If you are holding things back on purpose that’s another sin and makes the whole confession invalid.

This all seems more serious than it is. After all you are facing Christ, who has probably heard worse in his time. Before confession, pray to the Holy Spirit for clarity. Include the priest who is hearing it.

Could they really?

Here they are not allowed to before their initiation. It is a big traditional festivity where they are meant to learn basic principles of the faith and after that be "real" members of community.

>As long as you aren’t holding anything back on purpose, you are are absolved of all your sins.

Really? That's interesting.

Confession is not that common here in general. People receive it about once or twice a year, usually at easter.

>Here they are not allowed to before their initiation

Same here, but only baptism is required. Technically, you have to believe in real presence, but I doubt I did that with 8-9.

Yeah, you only have to do it once a year. On easter. For wide is the gate and people won’t sin :^)

"The same holy council teaches that little children who have not attained the use of reason are not by any necessity bound to the sacramental communion of the Eucharist; for having been regenerated by the laver of baptism and thereby incorporated with Christ, they cannot at that age lose the grace of the sons of God already acquired. Antiquity is not therefore to be condemned, however, if in some places it at one time observed that custom. For just as those most holy Fathers had acceptable ground for what they did under the circumstances, so it is certainly to be accepted without controversy that they regarded it as not necessary to salvation." (Council of Trent, Sess. XXI, Chapter iv)

=> Children could receive communion, but it’s not necessary anyway. Not sure if it would be illicit.

>Are there many people in your parish? Describe mass.

A couple of dozens that regulary attend, at most a hundred I'd say.

At easter or Christmas it's more though, like 500 probably.

>Describe mass.

What should I describe? It's just a Novus Ordo Mass, arent they everywhere the same?

There is stuff happening that's bad though. Altar girls, Women reading out gospel stories/ "preaches", feel good stuff with children, but the worst is that sometimes the communion is handed out by a laywoman. I do not take it from here. Fuck that even if it's offensive to here damn feelings but for me that is on the edge of blasphemy and highly doubt that the communion is even valid.

There are also marriages blessed between believers and unbelievers without the demand for ALL children to become Catholics.

In the last years it has also started that people cremate their death and want them to be buried on our cemetry.

Also murderers and people that commited suicide not that there was a difference have been buried there in the last years.

But I have seen worse in the city tbh. Applauding in Church for instance.

>Yeah, you only have to do it once a year. On easter. For wide is the gate and people won’t sin :^)

I have been to very good ones, too. In the parish right nearby, the preface isn’t sung, there is no incense, etc.

Might as well become ELCgAy

If there are just a dozen, you could ask for a more traditional mass but it might not even be up to the priest. Maybe he has long been crushed by overbearing laity or employees.

You should tell the priest that women are not allowed to read the gospel, that’s a privilege of the clergy. Same as homilies.

>handed out by a laywoman. I do not take it from here

That feel when I did an slide over the kneelers once to evade that. It is somewhat offensive to her feelings but so is she. I have attended mass in which the priest didn’t give communion at all but just delegated it to laity.

I see the cremation and burial stuff less critical, actually, mostly because regulations of the secular state increase the cost of death to unreasonable numbers. Cremation doesn’t break church law anymore, but I don’t understand why it doesn’t.

>>5103

> if I only received the Eucharist there then

Then you’d fulfill your church discipline but it’s actually a harder way, because the blessed sacrament also takes away venial sin.

“Holy communion is the shortest and surest way to Heaven. There are others, innocence, for instance, but that is for little children; penance, but we are afraid of it; generous endurance of the trials of life, but when they come we weep and ask to be spared. Once for all, beloved children, the surest, easiest, shortest way is by the Eucharist. It is so easy to approach the holy table, and there we taste the joys of Paradise.” Pius X.

Yeah, that’s what I said earlier about sacramental grace. It’s not necessary for the priest to be free of sin, it is grace achieved by reception, through the action. And even suspended clergy can validly consecrate bread and wine. Confirmation and penance require a mission by the bishop which they most likely won’t have.

You should do this, btw, at least standing, it strengthens the belief in real presence

>sounds a lot like rebellion to me

They would say the same if you knelt to receive communion on the tongue, probably.

>their methods

I agree, the bishop consecrations in 1988 where shameful and gave cause for the foundation of the Fraternity of St. Peter but Pope Benedict XVI lifted their excommunications in 2011 or so. The FSSPX are doing us a favour by drawing people away from the collects, the only thing that modernist bishops care about.
