What Catholics Believe

I am a Catholic and I'm sick and tired of the way Catholics here in Canada are criticized and harassed and persecuted. It never ends it seems. Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer is criticized non stop and asked stupid questions  because of his beliefs as a practicing Catholic.  So it seems that  if you are a practicing Catholic then according to our liberal media you aren't fit for public office . Talk about discrimination.  There is no common sense in this country anymore.  

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on the other hand, calls himself a Catholic but he is anything but! See Jonathon Van Maren's article at this link

Every Sunday  at mass, Catholics pray the Nicene Creed ( below) We Profess our Faith . We profess our belief in the Teachings of Holy Mother Church. The Catechism of the Catholic Church is our guide.

As an example we believe that life is sacred, Remember the fifth commandment Thou shalt not kill?

The Precepts of the Catholic Church  are a description of the absolute minimum actions required of Catholics regarding the Church. The Seventh Precept it to to join in the missionary spirit and apostolate of the Church. This is what every good Catholic is called to do and that includes those in Public Office.

So if you are one of those  Catholic haters can you please give it a rest ok?

Catholic haters, back off!

Thanks

Nicene Creed

We believe in one God,
the Father, the Almighty,
Maker of all that is, seen and unseen.

We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial
of one Being with the Father.

Through him all things were made.

For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.

For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered death and was buried.

On the third day he rose again
in accordance with the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead,
and his kingdom will have no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son.

With the Father and the Son he is worshipped and glorified.

He has spoken through the Prophets.

We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.

We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.

We look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come. Amen.
