Just look at it. Who sincerely and honestly thought this was a good idea? I can’t wrap my mind around this. I don’t think I want to. To me, that doesn’t resound the message of mercy. Instead, it looks a regrettable hippie throwback to the 70’s. Come on, Catholic Church, I thought we were putting those dark days behind us. Is no one else unsettled that this thing looks like something out of a cheap comic?
Mercy is great, mercy is necessary to practice our beautiful faith to the fullest. We have the corporal and spiritual works of mercy to guide us along the way. Wonderful. But this eyesore (no pun intended to the shared eye) is frightening. It makes me uncomfortable, and the thought of this image plastered all over our parishes in the near-future is already making me cringe. Not to mention being shared with the entire world.
Really now, what is going on with the shared eye?? Oh yes, solidarity and community. Lol silly, uncomfortable little me. But I’d bet money that modernists are rejoicing and having a kumbaya fest around it.
Look into my eye |
Seriously people, how hard would it have been to incorporate the real image of Divine Mercy? We have it for a reason, St. Faustina didn’t have it commissioned just for kicks.
I could go on, but I won’t because charity is also important and frankly, I don’t want to go on. So instead I’ll drink my coffee, and look like this for the rest of the day. Thanks, Michael Scott, you get me.
