A walk through Walsingham with Joseph Pearce

[@Antonia_D]

The splendor and the agony of Catholic England. What a beautiful and wise presentation, as is everything I've ever read of or by Joseph Pearce. We're so blessed to have this man in the Catholic Church! Our Lady of Walsingham, ora pro nobis.

It so very beautiful. I lived in the U.S. 49yrs. Miss all this history so much. What keeps me going is my beautiful Catholic Faith. And my dear son and daughter and 4 grandchildren that all live in the U.S.

[@InnerMittenSignal]

God created beauty, no doubt. Unbelievers can't even define What a spirit is, or where an idea comes from. Without the concept of the Spirit Realm, there are no answers. The important thing is to test the spirits, that they confess Jesus Christ came in the flesh and died in the place of every guilty soul. Not accepting this gift is to leave it unwrapped under the tree...not a good thing to leave it there too long!...

It is a salutary fact that it was the fruit of the (Anglican) Oxford Movement that revived interest in the Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham - without which it is quite possible the Roman Catholic Interest in the English Shrine of the Blessed Virgin Mary may not have survived to this day. Therefore, I cannot separate the Marion Devotion of Anglicans at their Shrine from that of the Roman Catholics now restored at the former Slipper Chapel. (There is still a R.C. Chapel contained in the Anglican Shrine of Our Lady at Walsingham!) When I visited both Shrines in 1961 - before the Great Council of Vatican II under the inspired leadership of Pope John XXIII - I first entered the simple Slipper Chapel (with R.C. friends from New Zealand) - which was the original place of departure for the Pilgrimage to the original Shrine of OLW 0 where pilgrims left their footwear to walk barefoot to the Shrine Proper. Thanks to the ecumenical climate encouraged by Pope John XXIII, the Slipper Chapel has now become the main place of worship for Roman Catholics - having been rebuilt in a style more befitting England's celebration of Mary's Dowry - the dedication of England to the BVM. As an Anglo-Catholic priest now living in New Zealand, I celebrate our common devotion to Our blessed Lady Mary, thankful that, though there has been division in the Church; under the provenance of the BVM we still have common roots in the salvation offered by OLJC. Ave Maria, gratia plena! Pray for us sinners now, and in the hour of our death, Amen!

i read about a miracle then i couldnt find it. it was a protestant girl who was not expected to live and she said that in the night angels caried her to Walsingham. i wrote a christmas poem about this forgoten memory of the good event. Walsingham A tragedy on Christmas eve broke the heart of Christ God Himself had order it this miracle in the night Her parents were elated the doctors were dismayed Kaity had survived the night and lived till Christmas day They asked their little baby girl smiling and awake, how it was that she had slept then kissed her pretty face "The angels carried me away back to Walsingham the lady was so beautiful, the little baby's Mam. I'm feeling so much better momie take me home. take me back to Christmas my dollies are alone" Kaity was an Anglican and the Shrine had long been shut the King of England looted it when he was in a huff Centuries have passed since then but England is Her Dower The Queen of love and beauty Is heaven's Ivory tower

@@trishkearney I see your point on that about Henry Viii. Truly some proper Reforms did come from Wycliffe, Hus and Luther though. In spite of it all we must receive Salvation as the gift of God through Christ and yield to God working in us and fellowshipping in Truth to the end. 🙏❤️

I think the Catholicism Joseph yearns for is the Olde English Christian Orthodoxy that gradually metamorphosed after 1054 into the RC faith of selling indulgences, and then to where it is now with Pope Francis.

English Catholicism is complicated due to the history. Conflating Catholicism from 1000 years ago to the Oxford Movement seems a 'bit' of a stretch. The problem with Catholicism in the modern period is it was far to Irish, and so magical and superstitious in the eyes of the English. -- It would be useful to talk about English history in periods in an honest way. Vatican II was also a complete rejection of what the English Martyrs died for, pretending the Catholicism of the past is what Catholics are practicing now seems a bit strange to me. -- I also don't get why they're talking about Tolkien and the Lord of the Rings. I'm glad we didn't have the Inquisition in England, sorry.

[@aelbereth6690]

They're talking about Tolkein because he was a devout Catholic, and there are Catholic themes throughout the Lord of the Rings.

[@kafirking6230]

What was wrong with the inquisition?

[@Consume_Crash]

You had the Protestant Inquisition with decades of draconian laws against Catholics. Catholicism was always in the way of those who benefitted from the Reformation which is why there was this constant effort to defame and vilify the Church, hence the calumnies spread about Holy Mass, the exclusion of Catholics from freedom simultaneously during periods of "Englightenment" with Locke, even them being blamed for the Fire of London, and so on.

[@tgflux]

@@kafirking6230 I guess it depends which side of the fire you're on, huh? Stake side or "Heretic is getting his/her just desserts" side?

[@kafirking6230]

@tgflux The Spanish Inquisition was necessary to save Spain religiously, culturally, and politically. The fact of the matter is, to deny Catholicism was to undermine every institution of Spain as they were all interlinked; that is to say, all heresy was a threat to the nation and this was true for all of Christendom. Spain as a nation needed to root out heretics after the occupation of the Moors to retake their oppressed culture. Also, the Anglosphere has been massively impacted by Protestantism, and herein lies the popular conception of events such as the crusades and the Spanish Inquisition. Protestants mainly starting during Elizabeth I's reign began to view the Inquisition as negative and used this as unhistorical propaganda against Catholicism. In reality, the Inquisition killed less people over 300 years than in one month of the French Revolution, and only 2.7% (there is some debate) of hundreds of thousands of people accused were charged of a crime and an even smaller number of between 3,000 - 5,000 were executed. Moreover, the Church courts were far more lenient in punishments than secular courts and often stopped mobs of people who would try to kill heretics as to not make them martyrs. Furthermore, Preists were forbade from practising torture, and the Inquisitor manuals are actually the basis of many modern policing manuals. This debunks the common conception of Inquisitors as torturers.
