I’ve been to one of these happy-clappy services and it was a chilling experience.

It was a bewildering experience bordering to the outright scary, they were really working themselves up to some sort of fervent frenzy, it was all so planned and so fake.

But what gets to me is their sense of smug superiority towards ‘lesser faithful’ for want of a better term.

Get off your high horses! You’re no better than modern-day pharisees. You don’t need to make a show to live your faith!

Daphne!!!! You removed my last 2 posts. They weren’t rude or in need of censorship. They were just truthful!!!!! Anything wrong with that.
PS Re your moderator, unless you are one and the same, needs turning over to the flipside, maybe, just maybe, he/she/you might play a different tune!!!

Once I was inclined to think of you as an intelligent column writer, but since your poor and absolutely unrelated comparison between politics and the great manifestations of God’s love for us during The Healing Services led by Dr. John,I have completely changed my mind.

May God heal you of your anger, frustration and diabolic anti clericalism and may your pen and lips stop vomiting venom once and for all.

Daphne, if only one realizes how pitiful it is when one talks or writes about a subject that one has absolutely no clue about. Your tendencies are well noted, your criticisms may look witty to you and your fellow court of jesters who are likewise misinformed and misguided… however, to anyone who has an inkling about his faith, then, it is no longer witty, but sorry to say,it is sad. As far as I am concerned you are not at all as intelligent as you think because had you the intelligence, you’d use it to better the world you live in and not fill it even further with a lifetime of negativity that rolls off your pen. But then, should I be surprised that negativity is ingrained into your brain ? I should think not since as I said, you do a pretty good job of showing your beliefs.

“Good catholic religion isn’t cultish (fundamentalism is).”

I have absolutely no problem with “good” religion, catholic or otherwise. I do have an issue about cults, and fundamentalism, whether in religion or in politics. The underlying value that I always promote is freedom of thought and freedom of action; and I abhor coercion and manipulation, especially censorship and media control, especially group pressures to conformity and obedience, or compliance to authority, which denies free personal choice, and that demands submission by its authority. In the case of the MLP, we have a group “hell bent” an insuring their personal political survival, and are doing so by attempting to block alternative paths or solutions to their personal objectives.

I am waiting to see if the perfect dream (nightmare) MLP attack team emerges from the party machine: Leader: Joseph Muscat; Deputy: Toni Abela; Deputy: Anglu Farrugia; Media Director: Jason Micallef; General Secretary: ?; President: ? If I mention names, does this mean that delegates will or wll not vote that way? All this alleged “reverse” or “backwards” or “upsidedown” psychology is confusing to me. Oh, I forgot: I only have to listen to the inner core of the MLP and open my eyes after the vote, if the MLP is operating like a cult.
