Raised by a strong Irish Catholic mother.<br /><br />Maybe that's something to do with it. As you seem to suggest in a fashion with the 'victim soul' - the women are more designed to 'give birth' to souls too - through suffering love. <br /><br />Why indeed did God choose a woman to give birth to Jesus and redeem the race. <br /><br />I love Mary - deeply. Were it not for Mary I don't think I could have remained with the Catholic Church. Seems a strange thing to say. That it should be because of Jesus. And it is really. Mary for me is all about Jesus and when the 'men of God' failed to show me the face of Jesus - or a recognisable one - Mary reminded me what He looks like and who He is. Imaging Him - Her soul magnifying Him. I always think how Mary is said to shine more brightly than a thousand suns at Fatima. Then there is the hymn, "Amazing grace...... " "When we've been there ten thousand years bright shining as the sun..... we've no less days to sing God's praise than when we first begun.... " To image the love of God is to shine as beautifully as the Sun/Son. <br /><br />I don't wholly doubt the experiences of these women here - but being human I do wonder at times about some of the things they say. Healthy scepticism ? <br /><br />I do enjoy reading about your site and thank you for the work you put in here. <br /><br />Did you all see that movie of Padre Pio made fairly recently ? <br /><br />It's about four hours long and an English version now available on youtube. It's beautiful - and the music wonderful too. Shows such a human, human being. Which is good.<br /><br />We can put them so high on pedestals at times they become unrealistic or recognisable. My patron Therese of Lisieux said, I think, near beginning of her "Story of a Soul," that if the saints were come back to earth they would not recognise themselves in so much of what had been written about them.<br /><br />Maybe you'd include a great friend of mine, "Blessed Maria Gabriella Sagheddu" of Unity. "Ut Unum Omnes Sint" - that they be One. <br /><br />She is not so well known but wonderful - offering her beautiful young life for Unity of Christians in a Trappist monastery in Italy.<br /><br />God bless us all<br /><br />Hope I have no offended anyone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233237209177841826.post-1009850228992403092014-05-07T10:05:09.781-04:002014-05-07T10:05:09.781-04:00Dear Anonymous,

It is interesting to note for example that looking at the Saints and Blessed’s of the church who are believed to have received the stigmata, women outnumber men by a majority of almost 7 to 1. I would say is because women are naturally more compassionate and have the ability to sympathize more deeply with others, and when we apply this to the idea of a victim soul suffering in union with Jesus for the conversion of sinners—well here perhaps we can see why God has chosen women much more often then men. But this is just my .02 cents.<br /><br />-Glenn Dallaire, website host Glenn Dallairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14335880223972671663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233237209177841826.post-81024324909745233302014-05-07T06:01:51.065-04:002014-05-07T06:01:51.065-04:00"Jesus also let Edvige know of a dentist in S..."Jesus also let Edvige know of a dentist in Sardinia who had been condemned:<br /><br />“My daughter, that dentist that died a few months ago did not want to recognize me as His father, and I did not recognize him as a son.”<br /><br /><br />Isn't this heresy ? <br /><br />Jesus is not our Father. The three are One yet distinct. Nowhere in the Scriptures does it suggest Jesus as Father but the Son of God the Father. Jesus as Son of God makes us heirs with Him - children of God, brothers and sisters readied through His sacrifice for Heaven.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233237209177841826.post-37461225101292441382014-05-07T05:48:54.946-04:002014-05-07T05:48:54.946-04:00Why so few men ?

Most of these are women and reading some of the words they say are spoken to them in conversation with various saints etc - I can't help but wonder it's all their own. Hysteria. I don't mean disrespect. But some of it just sounds wholly ludicrous. And no one seems able to answer one question. Why does Mary seem to have more compassion than Jesus ? I am a believer - well a believer of sorts. Maybe I am a heretic. I do pray the Rosary too. But I find some of these things a little hard to believe. <br /><br />PAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233237209177841826.post-83634593223867613222014-05-07T00:20:48.806-04:002014-05-07T00:20:48.806-04:00What a wonderful saint!
