( @18: 25 ff ) ” . . and I would not expect them to say
anything positive about this [ Heroldsbach ] message,
one way or the other, ’til after we’re through this
current mess in Rome.”
Nice to have you cut through “this mess” on a regular
basis, Anthony!
Never heard of this Marian visit. But everything about
it —message [to children]; duration; shortly after a
SECOND WORLD War [ like, DUH! . . when will we
“get it” ? ] —expands the “refrain” begun in Ecuador
(1610, Buen Suceso), at La Salette (1846, France),
in Fatima (1917 Portugal), and at Akita (1973, Japan).
Within the context of “30,000 [Christian] denomi-
nations” . . and counting! —not to mention the other
world religions —Venerable Bishop Sheen’s
observation on Our Lady is all the more telling:
“I think one of the major defects in world religions
has been the absence of the feminine. This
becomes more striking in a study of Christian sects
where so little attention is paid to the Mother of
Christ. It would be strange [even in the ’70s] to
visit a friend’s home and yet never hear him speak
of his mother.
Why are pulpits, which resound with the Name
of Christ, so silent about His Mother, who was
chosen for such a dignity in the agelessness
of Eternity? Hymns abound in praise of her Son
but not a verse to her who brought timelessness
into time . . . the moon does not take away from
the brilliance of the sun . . . Mary reflects her
Divine Son, without Whom she is nothing . . .
[ especially ] in this dark night of the world,
when men turn their backs on Him Who is
the Light of the World.
We look to Mary to guide our feet WHILE WE
AWAIT the sunrise.”
—Fulton J. Sheen, Treasure In Clay, 1980/
2008, ch. 20, “The Woman I Love”.
