In case the vapidly hysterical tone and nakedly heretical content weren\u2019t persuasive enough \u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

PIC two comets will collide prophecy meme<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

the semi-literate and painfully obviously phony visionary known as\u00a0Maria Divine Mercy has been condemned by the Archdiocese of Dublin<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Archbishop Diarmuid Martin wishes to state that these messages and alleged visions have no ecclesiastical approval and many of the texts are in contradiction with Catholic theology.<\/p>\n

These messages should not be promoted or made use of within Catholic Church associations.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Good. Not that anyone dumb enough to be duped will be smart enough to listen to the archdiocese.<\/p>\n

Sometimes you come across bogus visionaries who appear sincere but genuinely insane. I block \u2019em all the time on the Register<\/em>. \u00a0This Maria Divine Mercy person, though, whoever she is, always came across as very cynical and calculating. Exploiting people\u2019s fears is always awful, but doing it in the name of Our Lady is so incredibly odious and offensive. \u00a0Man, you do not want to mess around with God\u2019s Mama. I suppose we should pray for the hoaxster, along with all the people she\u2019s duped.<\/p>\n

I also suppose we\u2019re back to spotting Betty Grable<\/del> Our Lady on grilled cheese sammiches.<\/p>\n

Somehow this seems preferable. There is something touching in the witness of a person who knows she is going to be mocked, but goes ahead and insists that Mary kinda came to her anyway, right on her plate. (Of course this particular sandwich sold on eBay for $28,000<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

My favorite detail about this relic is that it has a bite out of it! Ha. We need a Catholic version of McGruff the Crime Dog, who can go around sniffing out deviant mysticism, and biting it. \u00a0<\/em>In fact, I volunteer, because I am hungry. Stupid diet.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
