Is la Santa Muerte part of catholicism? I've seen her cult rising here.

Nope, that's a mexican folk thing, not a mainstream catholic thing

Anyone else had visions in prayer?

Only catholic one (used to be into other stuff) was one Christmas eve when saying the Rosary. Just had a candle in my dark room, a rosary and some incense, iirc.

Fairly used to going into a light trance from the repetition. Middle of one of the decades, I'm rendered completely speechless, can't complete the word. I see a nun's face, looking sternly at me, I get the impression it's either Mary or St. Therese (could be both, visions work like dreams sometimes).

Only lasted a few seconds but felt like an eternity. Physically shaken after it, had to force myself to complete the decades.

It's a very different experience from just imagining something, or daydreaming. You're kind of 'pulled' into it, it's hard to describe, but the feeling is entirely different.

>you want to feel love towards other people and God again
Those who sin are misled. They are to be brought to the Light. Do not judge them, for they do not know that they sin, but instead help them feel the wonder of faith. Each person is of worth, for each is touched by God, and each must be loved, even those you consider unworthy - you love not their sin, but the godly inside them, which must be awakened lest they perish in the Dark.

Why should Orthodox cooperate with some rogue bishop?

Catholic and Orthodox leaders are basically politicians, those guys never get along.

Doesn't mean regular cathodox can't get along just fine
