From: "Joao Barros-Pereira" <joaobarrospere...@gmail.com>
The good news we're told is that God chose to have his son born in a
stable.
That's what I read on Goanet a few days ago. Why doesn't God's
representative choose to live in a stable, if it is so wonderful I wonder?
Why does the Head of the Roman Catholic Church choose to live in a palace?
Maybe, this is a problem of theology for some, for me it is pure
hypocrisy!
**My dear Joao,
Jesus was born "in a manger" (cf.my article), but did not live in a
"stable". Why do you want Benedict XVI to live in a "stable".
What problem is there if he lives in the "palace"? Most people live like
that in the "palace", even those who are not rich.
It would be ridiculous for him to live in a "stable". Why are you not living
in a "stable" and giving us the example?
This is not a problem of Theology, it is common sense, a vital problem.
No stable for the head of the Roman Catholic Church in Goa either. It is
unstable. What fun!
* *Again, why should the Archbishop-Patriarch live in a "stable"?
Do you want him to live among animals?
While the Church would like us to give to the poor, the Vanxem Roman
Catholic Church has sold land to a builder from outside Goa...
**The Church has already replied to this point. You can ask directly,
instead of writing on this Forum.
Our young people have started to move away from the hypocrisy of the
Church.
They want to own their own lives, to regain their own consciousness. As I
see it, there is no hope for the older generation. The young people are
our
hope, they have found a way out, an exit. Good news!
**You are free to live as you wish. Youth is still searching the way, as it
is proper for that age.
Fortunately, there are young folks who are convinced of Truth much more than
you are.
Regards.
Fr.Ivo
A Blessed, Happy, Fruitful New Year!
