Ahhh ACL! I thought a whole day went by without a bigoted remark from you toward Americans. I guess not. It is interesting that I don't find this kind of insecurity on display with other citizens of the UK... and I have spent some time over there and here with good English gentlemen. You talk of civility and you completely undercut your argument by spreading ignorant and uneducated nonsense in an attempt to stereo-type over 300 million people as if they are of one mind and background. Your distasteful arrogance and parroting of national stereo-types is truly astounding. 🤮

@Gregory...STOP your harrassing!! STOP! 🤫 🤫 🤫 I notice you now continue your harrassing AFTER Luchinka went OFFLINE. 🤫

Yes, gregory, takes one to know one! Maybe you should write a book critiquing everyone as you seemingly take such great pleasure in doing so.

Priests are to be respected but a priest is not always correct in all matters and when this occurs it is up to the flock to bring this to their attention. This is done on Gloria tv all of the time when videos of heretical Masses are shown and wrong practices are done by priests. There are priests who attend Gay Pride parades, should people also not speak up to them about that?

So wie "schoole" sich hier verhält und aufführt, bestätigt er die Aussagen von Bundeskanzler Konrad Adenauer, nachdem in den Jahren nach 1945 aufgrund des Potsdamer Abkommens aus den deutschen Ostgebieten über 13 Millionen Deutsche vertrieben wurden,
"6 Millionen Deutsche sind vom Erdboden verschwunden. Sie sind gestorben, verdorben."

(K. Adenauer, Erinnerungen 1945-1953, Stuttgart 1965, S. 186.)

Er beschimpft und beleidigt, nicht nur Lebende, sondern Verstorbene und deren Angehörige.

In der Schreibweise "schooles" ist Konrad Adenauer ein Nazi. Und nicht nur das: schoole weiß es besser! Besser als die Amerikaner, Engländer, Franzosen, Russen zusammen. Adenauer belegt seine Zahlen mit Angaben der Amerikaner. "schoole" belegt mit nichts als seinen Anfällen!

Wie nennt man diese seelische Störung, an der "schoole" leidet?

This is rather interesting. ACLumsden is English and is typical english. Their system of manners and etiquette in speech and social grace, is quite different to the Polish and some of the Polish speaking American.

He thinks he talks a lot about etiquette and grace so he has it.
He speaks about intelligence so he is intelligent.
He likes learning and teaching other people. Probably would be a good teacher in the JK Rowling school.

Frankly speaking his biggest problem is nationality. He loves speaking about nations like the two nazi clowns below. For him nation define the human. So he is a prisoner of his narrow minded nation.

Tanta Klara you can believe what you want to but remember if the Pope is against Harry Potter there is a good reason for this. A man said to Padre Pio one day that he did not believe in hell, Padre Pio responded. "You'll believe it when you get there." The occult is what it is so what more can be said about it.

There are much healthier forms of entertainment that enlighten the mind rather than put imagery of occult practices into our minds.

Kfarley - I did not speak of wisdom, rather, I long for decency and good christian methodology in discussion, things sadly lacking in many a thread on Gloria.tv. And when one looks into WHO is propagating this lack, one finds that my American cousins head the gang. Therefore, it is not a question of wisdom, rather, being from across the pond, I have a certain objectivity from distance observation.…More

ACLumsden why must you always make your provincial comments about "Americans" all of the time. Do you think that living on the other side of the Atlantic makes one wiser?
kfarley
That's the deception of the movie. It portrays Harry Potter who uses the occult to fight the occult. The movie is making it appear that there is good and bad magic when all along magic is sorcery and of the devil. Since Harry Potter is using sorcery he's as I said before fighting devils with devils.
Tante Klara
... even that I said, Harry Potter fights against the hell, just like the Archangel Michael fights against satan ...
kfarley
You are correct Tante Klara because hell is filled with them. Devils hate and don't believe for a second they all get along in hell. It is a constant battle-just like inmates in a prison the inmates of hell are always battling each other.

I think the points made thus far are quite valid. However, these points come from a particular position of intelligence and knowledge and ability to reason on the part of the poster. Therefore they are no less valid for the person making these points than those of others. HOWEVER, when there is little or no yeilding on the part of posters (on account of a well presented post), nothing gets resolved.

Discussion for adults, does not include brow-bashing, insulting and all the rest of it. Pity that, thus far, ALL the posters after Fr Brian, have remained infantile and have not risen above the 'school playground' phase of communication.

Do keep trying chaps, you just might get it right.

Yes, we are either with Jesus or against him. You can call evil anything you want to and it remains what it is. The lure of the devil is that he'll give you limited powers though magic on this earth in order to torture you in hell after death, With God we have to wait until death before we can understand why this or that was in our lives and the reasons for our sufferings.

Yes, we are either with Jesus or against him. You can call evil anything you want to and it remains what it is. The lure of the devil is that he'll give you limited powers though magic on this earth in order to torture you in hell after death, With God we have to wait until death before we can understand why this or that was in our lives and the reasons for our sufferings. With the devil he offers the petty things of earth to those who are too foolish to realize the boundless unending treasures of heaven God will bestow on his faithful for eternity. The devil offers the quick fix to the unfaithful through giving them preternatural knowledge from the realm of the dead-enter occultism, witchcraft Ouija boards-all occult and all from satan. With God we must have faith and look to him for strength. With the devil he wishes us to rely on ourselves for empowerment instead of God.

you have produced enough material with the disapproval of the Holy Father and Rome's chief exorcist. People will believe what they want. Period. ☕More
