On young people leaving home


May 31, 2004

Dear Bros,

What is the Traditional Catholic teaching on young women leaving their household to live on their own.  My 20 year old was contemplating the idea and I having been raised Mexican Catholic was taught it was wrong and disgraceful for a woman to move out on her own.  So I conveyed that to her and I had her talk to a priest from the CMRI whom I expected to echo my wishes to her. Instead he "recommended" she not leave but assured her there was no sin in it. 

So I asked an Old Catholic priest I met and he said it was a sin because the 4th Commandment is broken and a women should be under the care of a man (her father, husband, or in a convent).  I myself believe it is a grievous sin to defy one's parents' wishes to simply live independently (that's how I was brought up). Who is correct here?

No hurry but please do respond. Thank you and God bless.

M., there is nothing which precludes a woman over 18 from choosing to leave home and live on her own, provided she is planning to adhere to the Catholic Faith and live her life accordingly.  But if she is moving out simply in the hope of being able to live a worldly or non-Catholic lifestyle then obviously she is not justified in her actions.  So, to put it simply: there is nothing wrong with moving out; what matters is how she is planning on living her life when she moves out.

“Archbishop” Charles Chaput won’t deny “Communion” to pro-aborts

Catherine, you need to get our 7 video or dvd special for only $15.00, which includes 3 very important tapes [update: visit our online store for new specials] which demonstrate the reality of the situation with the Novus Ordo sect. Also, please call us at 585-567-4433 and we would be happy to discuss the issue of where you should go from here. Also, if your “priest” accepts Vatican II or the New Mass then he is not doing the best he can. Regarding your thought that Chaput of Denver is a conservative; you should click on the link below. Denver Apostate “ Just read the second paragraph of this article. Chaput is considered to be one of the most conservative (if not the most conservative) Novus Ordo “Bishop” in the country. But he won’t even deny pro-abortion politicians “Communion,” but he didn’t rule it out! He is a joke. He is a complete phony who stands for nothing. He also surely holds that position of John Paul II and official Vatican documents (such as the Balamand Statement) that Eastern “Orthodox” should not be converted to the Catholic Faith. Thus, Chaput is an apostate.

Concerning John Paul II’s teaching on man

No, Midgie.  First of all, in Matthew 25, Jesus is telling the world that we must love our neighbors as ourselves, and therefore to treat your neighbor uncharitably is equivalent to treating Jesus uncharitably, because Jesus was a human (besides being God) and therefore Jesus was also our neighbor.  But Jesus is not saying that each man is Jesus in Matthew 25.  John Paul II, however, is clearly saying that each man is Jesus, which is why he defines the Gospel as the deep amazement at man.

Antipope John Paul II, Redemptor Hominis (# 10), March 4, 1979: “IN REALITY, THE NAME FOR THAT DEEP AMAZEMENT AT MAN’S WORTH AND DIGNITY IS THE GOSPEL, THAT IS TO SAY: THE GOOD NEWS.  IT IS ALSO CALLED CHRISTIANITY.”(9)
It is also why he says the following about Christmas, the way of the Lord, etc. 
Antipope John Paul II, Urbi et Orbi, Dec. 25, 1978: “I am addressing this message to every human being, to man in his humanity.  Christmas is the feast of man.” Antipope John Paul II, Homily, Dec. 10, 1989: “… make straight the way of the Lord and of man, WHICH is the path of the Church.”
Remember, this is a quote from John 1:23, where John the Baptist tells us to make straight the way of the Lord.  Antipope John Paul II says make straight the way of the Lord and of man because he holds that the two are the same, as our article proves in detail.
Antipope John Paul II, Evangelium Vitae (# 30), March 25, 1995: “The deepest and most original meaning of this meditation on what revelation tells us ABOUT HUMAN LIFE was taken up by the Apostle John in the opening words of his First Letter: ‘That which was from the beginning, which we have heard… concerning the Word of life – the life was made manifest, and we saw it, and testify to it, and proclaim to you the eternal life which was with the Father and was made manifest to us …”
Remember, this is the passage in 1 John 1 where St. John describes seeing Jesus Christ.  Antipope John Paul II tells us that St. John saw human life – man.  Nothing could more clearly teach that man is Jesus Christ.
Antipope John Paul II, Speech in the Colosseum, April 10, 1998: “As we contemplate Christ dead on the Cross, our thoughts turn to the countless injustices and sufferings which prolong his passion in every part of the world.  I think of the places where man is insulted…” Antipope John Paul II, Homily, March 30, 1982: “Looking at himself, man discovers also – as Christ says in the dialogue with the Pharisees – what is ‘from below’ and what is ‘from above.’  Man discovers within himself (this is a constant experience) the man ‘from below’ and the man ‘from above’ not two men, but almost two dimensions of the same man, the man that is each one of us: of you, he, she.”
Remember, John Paul II is quoting John 8:23, where Jesus says that He is the one from above.  Antipope John Paul II tells us that man is the one from above – Jesus.
Antipope John Paul II, Address to Missionaries of Precious Blood, September 14, 2001: “And at the moment of Easter this joy came to its fullness as the light of divine glory shone on the face of the Risen Lord, whose wounds shine forever like the SunThis is the truth of who you are, dear Brothers…”
There are many other passages which could be brought forward, but the article Antipope John Paul II: Final Antichrist Revealed proves the point thoroughly.  And because he holds that each man became Jesus in the Incarnation is the very reason John Paul II has said hundreds of times that the Son of God united Himself with everyone in the Incarnation.

Barbara, I don’t believe it does. The prayer [O my Jesus, pardon us, save us from the fire of hell, draw (or lead) all souls to heaven, especially those in most need] is simply asking God to lead all souls to heaven; it is not asserting that all souls will make it. God wishes for all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Tim. 2:4), even though only just a few find it (Mt. 7:13; Luke 13:24).

Maureen, the whole issue of "material heresy" is explained in the article on our website called, "Why John Paul II Cannot be the Pope - a comprehensive presentation." There is a whole section on it. We would recommend that you look at it.
