“The observance of Lent is the very badge of Christian warfare. By it we prove ourselves not to be enemies of Christ. By it we avert the scourges of divine justice. By it we gain strength against the princes of darkness, for it shields us with heavenly help. Should men grow remiss in their observance of Lent, it would be a detriment to God’s glory, a disgrace to the Catholic religion, and a danger to Christian souls. Neither can it be doubted that such negligence would become the source of misery to the world, of public calamity, and of private woe.” MenWorldShouldSoulHelpingWould BeChristianGrowsChristJusticeEnemyDarknessDangerDivineSourceProveGloryGainsCatholicMiseryHeavenlyWarfareWoeCalamityDisgraceShieldsDoubtedBadgesScourgeNegligenceObservanceAvertDivine JusticeCatholic Religion Author:Pope Benedict XIV
“Hear Mass daily; it will prosper the whole day. All your duties will be performed the better for it, and your soul will be stronger to bear its daily cross.

It is the favorite devotion of the saints.” GivingSoulWholeInspirationFaithCan DoGreaterDutyBearsHolyMassGloryCrossesStrongerCatholicSaintDevotionYour SoulProfitableGlory Of God Author:Peter Julian Eymard

“Is the Church inimical to science? Growing up as a Catholic and a scientist - I don't see it. One truth is revealed truth, the other is scientific truth. If you really believe that creation is good, there can be no harm in studying science. The more we learn about creation - the way it emerged - it just adds to the glory of God.
