Fortnight for Freedom

In yet another attempt by Catholics to steal from time honored pagan celebrations, the United States Bishops have begun a Fortnight for Freedom.  This is a period of prayer for religious liberties against the growing desire on the part of a growing number of Americans to end all this stupid freedom and liberty garbage.  It will culminate on that most sacred of all uniquely American holidays – Independence Day.  Haven’t seen much media coverage, but then, didn’t hear much of it in our own parish either.  We’ll have to wait and see.  I know we’ll be praying, adding this to our litany of prayers over the next fortnight.
