Ecumenism - Handle With Care

Michael Voris of Real Catholic TV, in the video below, explains why Protestantism contains within itself the beginnings of the culture of death.  I ask you to watch this in its entirety.



He's speaking of the Protestant belief that he/she is his/her own authority when it comes to interpreting God's Word.  Well, with that comes umpteen million versions of morality.  I do remember hearing one story of Martin Luther, in his later years.  He wasn't too happy with some of the fruits of what he had done.  He remarked that he did what he did so he wouldn't have to deal with a pope, but found himself dealing with 200 "popes".  Well, now there's quite a few more.

Voris also hits on another imporant truth.  When the underpinnings of faith are undermined, so is morality.  Ladies and gentlemen, he is 100% correct.  Recall that it was a Protestant gathering, namely the 1930 Lambeth Conference, that opened the floodgates of contraceptives.  We know what's happened in the 80 years since then.

An important aside.  The pro-life apostolate does, in my opinion, operates within the realm of human rights, in which all people of good will can operate.  However, have you noticed that as that happens, quite a few of those Protestant people of good will come home to Rome?  I've never heard of anyone going in the opposite direction.
