Wednesday, May 25, 2011 Papal Tiara Commissioned and Gifted to Benedict XVI by Shawn Tribe Just a quick note as some of our readers may be interested in this story published by John Sonnen about a papal tiara that was gifted to Pope Benedict XVI , commissioned by Dieter Philippi and crafted by a Bulgarian Orthodox liturgical firm. The tiara was presented to the pontiff today by Dieter Philippi and a small delegation of Catholics and Eastern Orthodox.  |

Some Eastern Orthodox designed and gifted a tiara to the bishop of Rome? This is awesome.

“I am a Catholic not like someone else would be a Baptist or a Methodist, but like someone else would be an atheist.” - Flannery O'Connor
Then again I asked him, "supposing the Pope looked up and saw a cloud and said 'It's going to rain', would that be bound to happen?"
"Oh, yes, Father."
"But supposing it didn't?"
He thought a moment and said, "I suppose it would be sort of raining spiritually, only we were too sinful to see it."

"O MARY, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee."
"How can you believe, who receive glory one from another: and the glory which is from God alone, you do not seek?" (John 5:44)
"Except for a very little number who flee evil, what is the assembly of Christians if not a sink of vice?" - Salvianus
"I love truth," says he, "and not sects. I am sometimes a peripatetic, a stoic, or an academician, and often none of them; but—always a Christian. To philosophise is to love wisdom; and the true wisdom is Jesus Christ. Let us read the historians, the poets, and the philosophers; but let us have in our hearts the gospel of Jesus Christ, in which alone is perfect wisdom and perfect happiness." - Petrarch

I'm going to try and be optimistic about this and view it as a grace from God, as a sign that He earnestly desires Pope Benedict to restore Tradition.  |

I should reply that He made Peter the teacher not of that See but of the world. - St. John Chrysostom Number the bishops from the See of Peter itself. And in that order of Fathers see who has succeeded whom. That is the rock against which the gates of Hell do not prevail. - St. Augustine of Hippo  |
