Broadcasting from Facebook Tomorrow - Not Ustream

Ustream has been extremely uncooperative lately, making me think they want to dump the little guys like us.

Looking for alternatives, I found Facebook Live Video works. There are problems to work out, such as the camera conflict and quality of music, but it works for now.

This is my Facebook address -

https://www.facebook.com/gregjackson1966

The video will play from there. You may need a Facebook account, which is free.

I plan on getting a desktop box, which will not have the built-in camera problem that vexes me and probably messes with the sound too (a second video source, a second microphone).

More tomorrow.

"Regarding cardinals’ request for clarification of ‘Amoris Laetitia,’ the Pope’s silence speaks volumes

Amoris Laetitia , Gerhard Müller , Pope Francis , Raymond Burke

November 16, 2016 (CatholicCulture) — We should not be surprised that the Pope has declined a request for clarification of Amoris Laetitia. Are faithful Catholics confused by that document? Absolutely. That is the Holy Father’s intent. The confusion is not a bug; it’s a feature.

The defenders of the papal document (and those defenders are becoming downright belligerent; see below) insist that the notorious 8th chapter is clear enough, and that the four cardinals who have raised questions about its meaning are merely being argumentative. But if that were the case, the Pontiff could have avoided this public embarrassment by answering the cardinals’ questions. He chose not to do so.

There are only two possible ways to interpret the Pope’s silence. Either he is being remarkably rude to the men who are his closest counselors, flatly refusing to answer their honest request, or he does not want to give a straight answer. Or both.

The one possibility that can be quickly excluded from our discussion is that the Pope believes the interpretation of Amoris Laetitia is already clear to the faithful. It is not. After two years of intense debate on the most controversial question involved — whether divorced and remarried Catholics may be admitted to Communion — intelligent and informed Catholics are still unsure as to what, exactly, Pope Francis has taught us."

Like the Murder Victim's Family Joining the Murderer in a Party To Celebrate the Not Guilty Verdict by the Court: Lutherans, Catholics Gather for Historic Service in Lund, Sweden - ELCA

Lutherans, Catholics gather for historic service in Lund, Sweden - ELCA: "  The Rev. Elizabeth A. Eaton, presiding bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), ​joined Lutheran and Catholic leaders for a joint ecumenical commemoration of the Reformation on Oct. 31 in Lund, Sweden.

     Pope Francis; Munib Younan, bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Jordan and the Holy Land and The Lutheran World Federation (LWF) president; and Martin Junge, LWF general secretary, led the historic service at the Lund Cathedral. About 500 worshipers attended the Common Prayer service.

     “With joy we have come to recognize that what unites us is far greater than what divides us,” said Younan, in his opening welcome.

     According to a LWF press release, Pope Francis told worshipers that “in the context of the commemoration of the Reformation of 1517, we have a new opportunity to accept a common path, one that has taken shape over the past 50 years in the ecumenical dialogue between The Lutheran World Federation and the Catholic Church.”"
