... Supreme Court Upholds Pro-Abortion, Pro-Rationing Obamacare ‎"Under the Affordable Care Act, abortions are free of charge, but life saving medicine and treatments require a co-pay. All Americans who are on government subsidized healthcare plans (which would be almost all Americans) will be forced to pay for abortion through a hidden surcharge that insurance companies are not even allowed to tell their customers about, except in the initial sign up process.

Using hypocrisy as an excuse to avoid church…

... The number one gripe most non-Christians have with Christians is that we are hypocrites. Yeah and? Yes, but we are all hypocrites - Christians and non-Christians alike. Think about it for a second. Any parent who tells their kid to listen and obey the rules can easily recall incidents of childhood rebellion from their own past. Does this mean that parents have no right to tell their children what to do and impose their parenting beliefs on them? No, of course not. That's just crazy talk. … [Read more...]

Msgr. Paul Tighe, secretary of the Pontifical Council for Social Communications, told Catholic News Service that the Vatican's application to control the top-level domain .catholic "is a recognition of how important the digital space is for the … [Read more...]

praying for your enemies…

... Once when a priest told me to pray for my enemies I retorted, "But Father, I do pray for them. I pray for the Lord to smite them". He didn't laugh. Not even a chuckle. Yes, what was meant as a joke did leave me feeling bad. For a minute. It left me to wonder a great deal longer. I know we are commanded to love our enemies and pray for them but what exactly does praying for an enemy really mean? And it is such a stretch of the imagination and against Christian love to pray for our … [Read more...]

"I honestly thought for a while that if I ignored things, they would go away, or at least solve themselves. I’d be too far along for an abortion. But the woman taking my appointment snapped me out of that quick by telling me time was running out. I made the … [Read more...]
