Memorare Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,  that never was it known  that anyone who fled to your protection,  implored your help or sought your intercession was left unaided.  Inspired with this confidence,  I fly unto you, O Virgin of Virgins, my Mother; to you do I come, before you I stand  sinful and sorrowful;  O Mother of the Word Incarnate,  despise not my petitions,  but in your mercy  hear and answer me. Amen.

ABORTION is NOT a MORAL DILEMMA. POLITICAL ISSUE, ETHICAL DISCUSSION OR PHILOSOPHICAL DEBATE on which WE can AGREE to DISAGREE. It is the EVIL of our AGE.

An Idol or the Lord?

Dr. Peter Kreeft on the Eucharist, former Calvinist, converted to Catholicism.

"If the Catholics are wrong about this, and we Protestants are right — if these are just sacred symbols, then Catholics are not only idolaters, but they are the stupidest idolaters in history. They're bowing down to bread, and they're worshipping wine, thinking it's Almighty God. 

How could they be that stupid, and more important, how could the Holy Spirit fall asleep for fifteen hundred years, and wait until the Protestant reformers to tell us that that was a mistake?

On the other hand, if the Catholics are right, then we Protestants who don't believe in the Real Presence are missing out on the most amazing and astounding and intimate union with God that is possible in this life. We're like reducing a marriage to a friendship.

So that really bothered me. I didn't know where to go with it."

— Dr. Peter Kreeft, professor of philosophy, on his conversion from Calvinism to Catholicism
