ISIS has taken full control, of the Syrian City of Palmyra. This puts ISIS in control of half of Syria. It spells death for a lot of innocent people, as well as destruction for the historic ruins in that city. According to reports, the beheadings have already begun. Read more
A year ago, Andrew Lloyd Webber almost fell prey to the satanic evil of euthanasia. He was depressed and, as he says, “Couldn’t think of what to do.” So, he considered going to Switzerland and paying one of the murder factories there to kill him. Now, a year later, he’s glad he didn’t. What a difference a year makes. Read more
My colleague, Linda LaScola writes a blog over on the Atheist Channel. The focus of her blog is fallen clergy, specifically, Christian clergy who have become atheist. Quite a number of the posts she writes are about clergy who have become atheist, but continue to keep their jobs as Christian clergy. Ms LaScola and her fellow atheists like this sort of thing, because these guys and gals are worms, eating into the wood of Christianity from the inside. They are also... Read more
How did Iraq become the cesspool that birthed ISIS? Who made this mess? We did. We did it under the one-two punch of back to back bad presidents. It’s popular for the Ds to point at the totally unnecessary war in Iraq as the cause of the situation there. They are, of course, right. It’s equally popular for the Rs to point at the premature withdrawal from Iraq as the real cause of the mess. They are, of course, also... Read more
A few days ago, I had someone praise me for my “witness.” This person was referring to the fact that my family and I are taking care of my elderly mother. I wanted to interrupt this person and tell them the truth of it, which is that my “witness” is shot full of holes. Caregiving for an elderly person with dementia can seem like a piece of cake early on in the process. But as it progresses, and more of... Read more
Christian bashers are fond of creating alternate realities and then pretending that they are actual reality. In these alternate realities, Christianity is dying from the earth. In the real world, Christianity is dynamic and growing. Estimates are that there will be around 3 billion Christians on this planet by 2050. Another Christian bashing fantasy is that Christianity in general and the Catholic Church in particular are not “relevant” to the modern world. This is another example of Christian bashers deliberately... Read more
Christian/Catholic bashers come from all sectors of society. Some of them come from the left. Others come from the right. The thing they have in common is that their agenda is always and forever their agenda and not that of the Gospels. They attack Christians in general and the Catholic Church in particular, for one reason. They want to either use the prophetic and moral voice of Jesus Christ to advance their nihilist/corporatist agendas, or they want to destroy this voice. The... Read more
This story from LifeNews.com, doesn’t surprise me one bit. Sex ed is actually taught by Planned Parenthood in many school districts. Everyone seems to ignore the obvious conflict of interest in having the nation’s number one abortion provider teaching sex education. More to the point, the simple fact is that sex ed has been taught and re-taught for decades now and it’s obvious when you look at the stats that it’s not working. Our constant drum beat for more sex... Read more
If you want to feel like your life lasts forever, spend it waiting with a sick parent in an emergency room. Every minute in the er is an hour, every hour is a day, and the days are as close to eternity as we will get in this life. I spend quite a bit a time in emergency rooms with my Mama and her breathing problems. I’ve done enough of it that I have my fav ers and my ers... Read more
