A prophet is not respected in his own
\nCountry and when it came to Pope Paul VI, a prophet is not much
\nrespected in his own Church. Today is the 40th anniversary of
\nHumanae Vitae and sadly every prediction that Pope Paul VI made have
\ncome true. We hear so many people today who say they have a prophetic
\nvoice and they are almost always the same ones who have ignored the
\nprophetic voice of the Church. The real prophets always
\npreached a message that was out-of-touch with the society, which was
\nwhy they had to preach it in the first place. An easy general
\ntest for false prophets is if you do not have to change anything to
\nconform to their message then they are a false prophet. The
\nfalse prophets of today have the same message that the false prophets
\nin Ahab’s day did, that is to tell him “everything is going fine.”
\n The false prophets of today see the breakdown of
\nmarriage, family, and the treatment of women and then demand
\nthat have more of the same that lead to the problems in the first
\nplace. The hubris of false prophets prevents them from being
\nembarrased that all the predictions they made on wide availibility of
\ncontraception were not only incorrect, but exactly contrary to what
\nthey said. Every child a wanted child has turned into every
\nchild is wanted by an abortionist.<\/p>\n
