The Passion of The Christ - Via Dolorosa

Clip from the movie by Mel Gibson, The Passion of The Christ accompanied by the music Via Dolorosa, very moving presentation.

Valentine’s Day has become so commercialized, like Christmas, that it has lost most of its original meaning. Many are aware that it is a day that is all about “love”. But they believe it is a day that is all about sexual love. Which, although our sexuality can be expressed in love, many times it is not.

The love that Valentine’s Day is meant to express is “Christian Love”, “Perfect Love”. It is an expression of the “Royal Law” which Saint James speaks about it his Letter in the Bible, James 2:10.

Texas Gov. orders anti-cancer vaccine
“Merck is bankrolling efforts to pass state laws across the country mandating Gardasil for girls as young as 11 or 12. It doubled its lobbying budget in Texas and has funneled money through Women in Government, an advocacy group made up of female state legislators around the country.”

Merck pharmaceutical strikes again!

Without a sure knowledge of God’s Love for them, mankind may despair and give up hope.

I was watching a movie today and I had an idea of a way of looking at sharing the Gospel message. The movie was “Angel Eyes”, with Jennifer Lopez …. as  Sharon Pogue and James Caviezel ….  Steven ‘Catch’ Lambert.

The story is about Jim Caviezel’s character being involved in a car accident where he was the driver and his wife and small son died. Jim “Catch” as he is known in the movie has shut out the accident from his mind and is living his life without any concrete knowledge of what happened the day of the accident or his life before then.

He meets Sharon, played by Jennifer Lopez, a Chicago Police Officer. They fall in love with each other. Catch doesn’t share much about his life and Sharon falling in love and wanting to know more about Catch finds out about the accident.

She decides on her own to try to shock him out of his denial of the truth of his life by confronting him with the truth at the cemetery where his wife and son are buried.

Back to my “idea” on whether we should “evangelize”.

Some people watching this movie would think that what she did was the correct thing. Catch was living a good life, yet not a full, vibrant life. He was not living the best life that he could. Sharon could have left him in the “dark”, so to speak, about his former life and what many people would count as his “real” life or “reality”. Yet others would say; “Who is she to just indiscriminately decide that Catch should be brought to the “truth”.

What Sharon did she did out of love of Catch.

In some way this movie demonstrates Christianity and evangelization. It does this by the way the character Sharon brought Catch to the knowledge of the Truth with Love. Catholics become missionaries to bring the “best” life to others. To show those who want to know… “reality”, because the ultimate reality is mankind’s relationship with God.

CCC 843 The Catholic Church recognizes in other religions that search,  among shadows and  images, for the God who is unknown yet near  since he gives life and breath and  all things and wants all men  to be saved. Thus, the Church considers all  goodness and truth  found in these religions as “a preparation for the Gospel and  given  by him who enlightens all men that they may at length have  life.”332
844 In their religious behavior, however, men also display the limits  and errors  that disfigure the image of God in them:
Very often, deceived by the Evil One, men have become  vain  in their reasonings, and have exchanged the truth of God  for a lie, and served  the creature rather than the Creator. Or  else, living and dying in this world  without God, they are exposed  to ultimate  despair.333

I was discussing  anti-Christian/Catholic media bias with a friend.
I relaized for the first time - firsthand - media bias, when it comes to Christian/Catholic news reporting. It was years ago at the pro-life rally  in the Ocala Town Square, Flroida. It was probably my first year attending this event. The  pro-life people had about 300 marchers, they were  conservative  in their approach, prayerful…
There were also about  12 pro-aborts. They were noisy, trying to disrupt the  rally speakers. When all the pro-life people marched around  the  square at the end, praying and holding signs, the pro-aborts sat on steps  near one corner and  cursed and spit at people. I saw all this  first hand, not ‘word of mouth’.
That night I watched the  news, I was still naive in those days and I actually  watched news  programs but this was an ‘eye opener’ on the veracity of news reporting.
Channel 2 Ocala, the station is right across the street from  the square, showed  about 12 pro-lifers and 12 pro-aborts. They  made it look like equal numbers  showed up for both sides and they  showed the pro-life people shouting at  something one of the speakers  said and at the same time showed the pro-aborts  talking and standing  quietly.
They made it look like there were equal numbers  of people on both sides and  that the pro-lifers were the rowdy ones!

Not  a word on the pro-aborts spitting and cursing people!
