Father Gerald Murray you are the light in total darkness please continue to guide us

[robertjamesd.morales]

Yes agree!!! Complete DOUBLE talk from Cardinal Fernandez! Yes they say its a Synodal Church...but is the Pope listening? The pope does not even respond to bishops and priests when asked for clarification on matters of the faith and doctrine...I continue to pray for the enlightenment of the Holy Father Pope Francis and to truly lead the Church the way Jesus would. The Roman Catholic Church founded by Jesus Christ wants to evangelize and influence the people of the world and NOT the other way around. Are we going to live by God's standards or the world's standards? God bless the three of you especially Father Gerald E. Murray!!! Keep up the good work gentlemen! The Church needs you in this time of crisis and confusions.

[JeanMR]

Thank you Papal Posse for your clear articulation of the truths of our Catholic faith. May God bless you and our Blessed Mother keep you always. May you and we have a Blessed, Holy and fruitful Lent 🙏✝️✝️✝️

[dhanawaken]

Lord GOD… you take care of EVERYTHING!
We Trust in You!
GOD ALWAYS WINS🙌🏼🕊

Heaven forgive these prelates busy persecuting the Traditional Latin Mass and the devout Catholics attending these Masses. What an awful mistake they’re making.

[katherinehickey]

I'm frustrated by current events in the Church but I trust in God to get the faithful through it all

[vrgg]

Excellent! I really appreciate the interview with Liz Lev about Fr. Rupnik's art. My homeschooled teens and I listened to your opposing viewpoints and learned a lot. By the way, it was your former interview with Lev about her book that inspired me to add her book to our curriculum. HOW CATHOLIC ART SAVED THE FAITH is an excellent book that encompasses art, history, and religion.
Commentary by Fr. Murray and Robert Royal is always enlightening.

[anamariamonttemayorderamir]

When I saw his work at Píos I hated it! It was freaky and remember thinking that Padre Pio was not happy!!!
Please get rid of it!!!!

[francikoen]

Rupnik's art is #warped ... just like his mind and character.

[mikebolognese]

Does the Dycastery have any credibility left? No, it doesn't.

[IrisDemarco]

Why is rupnik mosaic of baby Jesus, have our saviour bound in straps like his message is to bind and stifle the message in his birth. Just looking at his art, makes me sick knowing who he is and what he has done. It’s a heartless slap in the faces of all who were abused by him. Disgusting. Take it down ! His dark soul has destroyed so many innocent lives.

[cathyj.ploszaj]

St Francis of Assisi was ordained deacon (but never a priest - he felt unworthy) in order that he could preach. There were no women preaching.

[soniavadnjal]

Surely Rupnik's outlook informs his art. He, and it, should go.

[carmenwheatley]

Raymond, you are so right: Rupnik's work is not art. That is the deciding factor here.
I too saw the murals at Lourdes long before he was outed and wondered why they were thought fit to be there, after the finer work within.We need Alexander Tschuggel on the job!

[brianwalsh]

Rupnik’s “art” is garbage. They are bizarre and unhuman.

[cynthias]

It’s disgusting, take it down immediately. How sick to even consider keeping it.

[michaelaschorr]

JUST LOVE AND RESPECT Your Show ALWAYS ..❤❤❤THANK YOU Mr. Raymond

[Oudeis]

Thank you for sharing the historical and considered insights of Dr. Lev regarding the treatment of sacred art by unholy artists. It was informative for her to share the historical precedents of Caravaggio and Fra Filippo Lippi. Of course, that an injustice has precedent is not grounds to repeat the injustice, so I appreciate the nuanced distinctions and analysis that Mr. Arroyo and Dr. Lev presented. I do pray that Rupnik is properly tried and brought to justice for the sake of his victims and the health of the church.

[bernob]

Why are they studying this? Do these guys have so much free time, this isn’t even the top 100 things the church should be looking at or think about how to save the earth.

He should we worried about how to save peoples life. This pope has lost it. . . Go Africa stand up for Bible! Someone has to . . .

[joanne]

We need an African Pope!! They are holy!
