“He [Satan] will set up a counter-Church which will be the ape of the Church because, he the devil, is the ape of God. It will have all the notes and characteristics of the Church, but in reverse and emptied of its divine content. It will be a mystical body of the anti-Christ that will in all externals resemble the mystical body of Christ. In desperate need for God, whom he nevertheless refuses to adore, modern man in his loneliness and frustration will hunger more and more for membership in a community that will give him enlargement of purpose, but at the cost of losing himself in some vague collectivity.”
“Who is going to save our Church? Not our bishops, not our priests and religious. It is up to you, the people. You have the minds, the eyes, and the ears to save the Church. Your mission is to see that your priests act like priests, your bishops act like bishops.”
- Fulton Sheen

"But if, in any layman who is indeed imbued with literature, ignorance of the Latin language, which we can truly call the 'catholic' language, indicates a certain sluggishness in his love toward the Church, how much more fitting it is that each and every cleric should be adequately practiced and skilled in that language!" - Pius XI
"Let us realize that this remark of Cicero (Brutus 37, 140) can be in a certain way referred to [young lay people]: 'It is not so much a matter of distinction to know Latin as it is disgraceful not to know it.'" - St. John Paul II
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

That’s about as cool as the hymn book iPod cover I got from Urban Outfitters. Only $48? Seriously?
Somethings are just plain wrong! Don’t like it one little bit. Looks cheap and tacky. Even if it didn’t I would still dislike it intensely.
Sure to take its place in The Leaflet Missal next to the Padre Pio watch and statue of Jesus standing behiind the Little League batter.
Hahaha, I love it :D
It does look cheaply made.
I don’t think this is funny or cute;
its a serious profanation of the Cross, a sacred symbol
of Our Lord’s Passion & Death which does not deserve this
kind of treatment, especially from a priest.
Would you dare to profane the Menorah in this fashion?
You would have the ADL breathing down your neck.
I suggest you remove it (the cross, that is).
I completely agree with the statement made by Angelo.
If you were a faithful priest you would never expose the great symbol
of our Lord’s Passion and Death in such a disgraceful manner.
I think you two (Angelo and FrankM) are treating Fr Z a little harshly. Don’t say that he is an unfaithful priest, because I’m sure he has his reasons for posting it. He might not have realized that it is profane, or might have a reason that it is not. You can criticize the idea, but don’t say anything mean about father. He is a holy priest, after all.
It would be much more preferable for folks to carry around an MP3 player looking like a cross than the rather vulgar, almost heathen other symbols they sport around on their cars, their tattoos ( which they will have to answer to God for on their last day ) and also the gamut of crap they wear around their necks, e.g. anks, crystals, etc.
While somewhat cheesey, only those who can appreciate the Cross for what it is will be mostly the ones buying it in the first place. For those lacking any sense of humor–which Father Z certainly does not–he just posted it as such. Whether anyone actually buys one or not, that’s not Father Z’s issue nor his advocation. Evan Almighty.
I think people should attempt a sense of humor somewhere along the line.
Breathe, people.
