Kneeling Catholic's comments about Pentecostals and His Holiness [Anchoress has now published this:-)]

[Updated, the Anchoress apparently did eventually [?] publish my comment, I received notice Saturday morning...and the responses to my comment did come from Friday...so I guess I just couldn't read the comments on Friday]

I commented the following regarding her post about the Holy Father's recent embrace of Bishop Palmer (not a real bishop...some kind of Anglican) @

Hello Elizabeth!

I got about this far into your video and got pretty discouraged

....8:35 (Bishop Palmer) "sending my children to the Catholic Church which was so traditional, that was going to kill their Faith!".....

:-(




I have a lot of questions about the Holy Father's approach. Why, for instance, is Kenneth Copeland embraced and I am not? Pastor Copeland holds to a blasphemous Christology, claiming e.g. that our Lord was punished and reborn in hell.(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dwbNvBq7eQ)





 you can see some of Pastor  Copeland's anti-trinitarian teachings here (http://thewordonthewordoffaithinfoblog.com/2009/03/11/43-aberrantheretical-and-non-christian-theological-quotes-from-kenneth-copeland/) .  I am sure Pastor C holds these beliefs in good faith.  May I now embrace them as well?  (The Holy Father seems to be putting his stamp of approval on Pastor C 'as is')

The other problem I have is: from these gentlemen's demeanor I do not see any hint that either Bishop Palmer or Pastor  Copeland feel any need to become Catholic, (which is a problem, is it not?)

  2. I've stopped reading the Anchoress. About two years ago something on her blog changed.
