Canon 1240 states that cemeteries and burial places are sacred if they have been properly blessed, recognizing them as holy places set aside for the faithful.

TRIVIA | The Occult Latin used by occult practitioners (e.g. albularyos) is not the same as the Ecclesiastical Latin used in our Liturgical Rites.

BEWARE OF FAKE PRIESTS AROUND CEMETERIES

Matagal nang issue ito kada sasapit ang Undas, kung kailan maraming tao ang dumarayo sa mga sementeryo upang alalahanin ang mga namayapang mahal sa buhay. Muli, kayo po ay aming pinag-iingat sa mga pekeng pari, seminarista, o tauhan ng simbahan na magpapakalat-kalat sa mga sementeryo at mag-aalok ng dasal at basbas sa mga puntod kapalit ng pera.

Tayo po ay palagiang pinaalalahanan Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) na maging mapanuri. Huwag po tayong tumanggap ng mga serbisyo mula sa mga nagpapanggap lamang na pari/seminarista/tauhan ng simbahan. Kung may mag-alok ng dasal, pasalamatan lamang ang mga ito o kaya'y bigyan lamang ng pagkain.

Ang mga lehitimong pari na magbabasbas ng mga puntod ay mayroong dala na celebrets o ‘letter of authority’. Ito ay iginagawad mismo ng mga obispo sa mga pari upang patunay na sila ay may permisong makapagmisa sa ibang diyosesis.

“IT'S NOT A RELIGION; IT'S A RELATIONSHIP.” OH, REALLY?

Protestants here in the Philippines say, "Christianity isn't a religion; it's a relationship with God," but this is what Protestant Biblical scholars say:

Protestant Biblical scholars have published a Bible Dictionary called the Holman Concise Bible Dictionary and this is what is written on page 526:

RELIGION – "Relationship of devotion to or fear of God..." (Holman Concise Bible Dictionary, page 526)

“CHRISTIANITY WAS NOT THE ONLY RELIGION to come under such scrutiny, but its worldview was certainly suspect” (1 Peter (Baker Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament), Karen H. Jobes, Baker Academic (2005), p. 186).

One of the renowned Protestant Biblical scholars I know believes that the definition of the Christian religion is a relationship with the Triune God—Father, Son, and Spirit. Religion are the things (rituals, worship practices expectations, morals, etc) we attach to it.

Religare in Latin means "bind" or tie back; it suggests establishing a connection, especially a connection with what is one's source or origin. It means getting in touch with where one comes from, and in humility and reverence acknowledging the connection.

Religion does mean a way of cultivating a relationship with the mysterious power that we believe lies at the heart of all things, offering us life and promising us a way to live authentically and meaningfully in a relationship with that Mystery. It is a relationship of dependence and confidence, which comes to its perfection in the Christian tradition as love. Jesus has shown us, in his preaching and in the story of his life and death, the full meaning of what religion is. It begins in the faith and the religious practice of Israel, but is given personal shape and a unique set of demands by the teaching, life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. The Christian religion is a relationship to God and to the rest of the world based on the teaching, person and practice of Jesus, in the ongoing community of his disciples.

Why is it that every school and office seems to have its own ghost stories?

“Well, you have to understand that right now in our age, we have lost the sense of the sacred,” Fr. Syquia says. “You don’t see so many sacramentals [Christian objects like holy statues, crucifixes, holy water, and holy salt] and they don’t take office or school blessings seriously.” He adds that many buildings are haunted because construction workers often offer blood to appease the spirits before breaking ground—a pagan practice that has been passed down from our ancestors.

“Yung iba nagpapa-feng shui pa, using rituals from another religion,” Fr. Syquia adds. “We also know that many people from the provinces go to albularyos, so they can also bring the spirits there into the place. That’s why sometimes when a person leaves, all the infestations and paranormal manifestations stop. So there can be many causes but most especially with regards to our homes and buildings there’s a lack of the use of sacramentals to make a sacred atmosphere. Especially homes can easily get haunted when there’s a lot of fights, violence, that sort of thing attracts spirits.”

They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Though they know God’s righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but they give approval to those who practice them. ~ Romans 1:29-32

Ang mga Katoliko nga ba ay hindi kristiyano?

According to National Library of Medicine "National Center for Biotechnology Information" Effects of Divorce on Children Each child and each family are obviously unique, with different strengths and weaknesses, different personalities and temperaments, and varying degrees of social, emotional, and economic resources, as well as differing family situations prior to divorce. Despite these differences, divorce has been shown to diminish a child's future competence in all areas of life, including family relationships, education, emotional well-being, and future earning power. One review of the literature conducted in the United Kingdom found that “although children are at increased risk of adverse outcomes following family breakdown and that negative outcomes can persist into adulthood, the difference between children from intact and non-intact families is a small one, and the majority of children will not be adversely affected in the long-term” (Mooney, Oliver, and Smith 2009). There is much research, however, that offers evidence to the contrary. Two large meta-analyses, one reported in 1991 and the other reported ten years later in 2001, showed that “children with divorced parents continued to score significantly lower on measures of academic achievement, conduct, psychological adjustment, self-concept, and social relations” (Amato and Keith 1991; Amato and Booth 1997 as quoted in Amato 2001). https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4240051/

CCC 1601 "The matrimonial covenant, by which a man and a woman establish between themselves a partnership of the whole of life, is by its nature ordered toward the good of the spouses and the procreation and education of offspring; this covenant between baptized persons has been raised by Christ the Lord to the dignity of a sacrament."

Explanation on Halloween by Rev. Fr. Michell Joe Zerrudo, isang Exorcist. Pano ba dapat ipagdiwang ang Araw ng mga Banal, At Araw ng mga Patay? - Pagsisimba at pag-aalay ng dasal. Full Video Source: https://youtu.be/VGsHSG_JU6Y

CCC II. THE FALL OF THE ANGELS 391 Behind the disobedient choice of our first parents lurks a seductive voice, opposed to God, which makes them fall into death out of envy.266 Scripture and the Church's Tradition see in this being a fallen angel, called "Satan" or the "devil".267 The Church teaches that Satan was at first a good angel, made by God: "The devil and the other demons were indeed created naturally good by God, but they became evil by their own doing."268 392 Scripture speaks of a sin of these angels.269 This "fall" consists in the free choice of these created spirits, who radically and irrevocably rejected God and his reign. We find a reflection of that rebellion in the tempter's words to our first parents: "You will be like God."270 The devil "has sinned from the beginning"; he is "a liar and the father of lies".271 393 It is the irrevocable character of their choice, and not a defect in the infinite divine mercy, that makes the angels' sin unforgivable. "There is no repentance for the angels after their fall, just as there is no repentance for men after death."272 394 Scripture witnesses to the disastrous influence of the one Jesus calls "a murderer from the beginning", who would even try to divert Jesus from the mission received from his Father.273 "The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil."274 In its consequences the gravest of these works was the mendacious seduction that led man to disobey God. 395 The power of Satan is, nonetheless, not infinite. He is only a creature, powerful from the fact that he is pure spirit, but still a creature. He cannot prevent the building up of God's reign. Although Satan may act in the world out of hatred for God and his kingdom in Christ Jesus, and although his action may cause grave injuries - of a spiritual nature and, indirectly, even of a physical nature- to each man and to society, the action is permitted by divine providence which with strength and gentleness guides human a
