That "not knowing", that uncertainty and how we react to it, defines us.unusedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05950746230180560818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6795165206797872713.post-49951253195583323262010-04-19T09:50:28.082-06:002010-04-19T09:50:28.082-06:00Thanks Icearc,

Time after time I have viewed in my lifetime the results of ¨humility¨ as opposed to ¨arrogance¨ (which oddly is a sometimes imagined sign of strength but is usually plain fear)...every difficult situation I have ever seen has ended in a more positive way when more positive actions are able to be taken when my ¨failure¨ is confessed because I DON´T KNOW...for me, it´s often in the ¨not knowing¨ when I release my death grip on ¨being right¨ that God moves quickly with proper actions for healing life around me...I often think of it as ¨Nature taking it´s course.¨Leonardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16667415590825321701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6795165206797872713.post-68148144843848385712010-04-18T03:34:17.703-06:002010-04-18T03:34:17.703-06:00The reason why the Holy Father was the doctrine of...The reason why the Holy Father was the doctrine of infallibility of the office of the Papacy and the magisterium by extension promulgated at the first Vatican council. Ever since then, the Holy Fathers intoxicated by that absolute power, have found it unnecessary to admit mistakes let alone ask for forgiveness. We learn from history that any person or institution entrusted with or acquires absolute power becomes more concerned with retaining it than the concerns of those on who they lead and will NOT admit inequities of any sort, They are always right. They make the miscalculation that doing so weakens their infallibility of the office when it's quite the opposite, <b>NO</b> doctrine will breed trust of the laity, the flock, but honesty does wonders. A return to humility is required!unusedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05950746230180560818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6795165206797872713.post-70446881739207725812010-04-17T18:25:10.531-06:002010-04-17T18:25:10.531-06:00Oh my!
