Tolerance at Its Finest

Here is a recent post from the Cornell Society. It is a prayer for peace to be said between the decades of the Most Holy Rosary.

• Do we have pagans in our nation?


• Do evil minds persecute the Lord God?


• Have I offered prayers with distraction?

Answering YES to any of the above questions demonstrates the necessity of this prayer. So make a copy of this prayer and share the love.

The original post has a scanned image of the prayer card. However, as stingy as I am, I will post only the text.

Inter-decade Prayer of Rosary for Peace (17 November 1948)

Lord Jesus Christ, forgive our sins, take care of the pagans for the peace of our nation and lead the evil minds among them who persecute [the] Lord God onto the just path, redeem Russia for the peace of the world. Sacred Heart of [our] Lord Jesus Christ, Immaculate Heart of [the] Virgin Mary, make our hearts like the heart of our Lord.

Make this world free of evil inhabitants and tolerate our prayers offered with distraction. The most Sacred Heart of [our] Lord Jesus Christ, the Most Immaculate Heart of [the] Virgin Mary make our hearts fervent.

Imprimatur: Bishop Daniel H. Tji

Mammon: guilt-free

Ian over at Nobis Quoque has posted an image that really touches my heart. The pagan ladies next door can't keep their mouths shut about not-legislating morality (esp. in regards to abortion). I have posted the image on my office door.
Let the inter-office back-biting commence!

Frumpamentalist

I decided to comment on the recent modesty/fashion post going on with my friends at Traditio in Radice and Inquisitor Generalis. You should read the above links first. My comments below are merely afterthoughts.

My wife calls those traditionalist women who have adopted the Little House on the Prairie (LHOTP) look a "Frumpamentalist".

One of the problems with the LHOTP look is that it does not represent the Traditionalist way of life as either realistic or attractive. Who wants to look like a frumpy-dumpy housewife in order to "join the club"?

I see the goal as being one of "not un-fashionable" dress. (Excuse the double negative. I believe it conveys my point.) Modesty does not by necessity equate with un-fashionable.

From our own experience, people are amazed to discover that we have 7 children and exclusively attend the TLM. Why? Because we do not dress like we fell off of a horse-drawn cart. We appear to be approachable and relatable, and we are. They are then caught quite off-guard when my wife speaks about the traditional role of women within marriage and family. The question in their minds is, "How could someone who appears to be so normal actually be so radical?"

Several young families who have recently visited our parish were relieved to find other Trad families who dress and act normal, inclusive of modest and moral.
