I...Who knew God posted comments on the internet! I'm pretty sure he's the only one that's allowed to judge people and especially tell His people who is going to Hell or not. I believe that's what Ed is trying to portray to his community, is that it is not our place to judge others. I've always thought that to be religious and to truly love our God meant to love all of His children unconditionally. I pray for you "Anonymous" that you can get over your hatred for other people and learn someday to embrace all of God's children regardless of their choices and learn to not judge other people because they sin differently than you. May you find peace in your heart someday and truly love God the way he intended.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805088975108987435.post-87823414790878245862012-08-02T05:24:29.909-07:002012-08-02T05:24:29.909-07:00Ed, I woke up this morning thinking about you.

Anyway you were on my mind so I did what comes naturally, I googled you!<br /><br />First and foremost, I am so very sorry about the loss of your marvelous nephew; I know what a devoted uncle you are. <br /><br />I can only say how very much I heartily agree with you about the Catholic church's ridiculous hate campaign. The Catholic church, as usual, is still in the dark ages when it comes to marriage and families.<br /><br />Keep up your efforts! I am so proud that I once knew you.<br /><br />Mary Johnson Normal, IL (good wife and proud mother of four 20-somethings and a good Unitarian BTW)Mary Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13682669415970605395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805088975108987435.post-80790837544513242002012-07-24T09:13:59.098-07:002012-07-24T09:13:59.098-07:00I will pray for your soul Father Flahavan because ...I will pray for your soul Father Flahavan because you have abandoned your sacred vows and now live in sin. Father Flahavan you are leading many people to hell by standing up for gay rights and so called gay marriage. You have put modernism above the truths and teachings of the Church. Your sins and your reluctance to receive the most holy Eucharist worthily have caused you to resort to evil. I pray for your conversion back to the Catholic faith and that you make a full confession, for your sins and live out the remainder of your life in penitence for your terrible sins.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805088975108987435.post-74330704054822757972012-05-28T16:38:50.205-07:002012-05-28T16:38:50.205-07:00Are you kidding!!

I would like to know if Ed is collecting a retirement check from the Archdiocese. The thought of two men or two woman playing house and calling it marriage is really beyond the pale. I think God said "increase and multiply". How does that happen with same sex unions. It is unnatural.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805088975108987435.post-79411433433473096552012-05-28T08:21:27.036-07:002012-05-28T08:21:27.036-07:00The change of law entails civil rights for citizen...The change of law entails civil rights for citizens. Bishops should keep their big noses out of civil matters. If they're so bold, why don't they stop the two-fers couples now get: sacramental matrimony and civil marriage? Because couples would come less to church than they are already not coming.<br />I think +Nienstedt's celibacy is a threat to marriage!<br />Chuck Murphy<br />MilwaukeeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805088975108987435.post-19173204430110038232012-05-21T12:07:07.908-07:002012-05-21T12:07:07.908-07:00I think everyone has a right to question what an o...I think everyone has a right to question what an organization spends its money on when the results of what it is spending its money on will affect *all* people in a jurisdiction, not just Catholics. If the Catholics want to spend $650K to promote a law that will affect only them, I don't care one whit. But when it starts tramping on the rights of non-Catholics.....um yeah, I think everyone has a right to a voice. Ed, I admire your courage and sense.

You question them? Give me a break. Go picket on the Lake St. bridge with the rest of the apostates.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
