You Gotta Remember: Ann Coulter Called John Edwards “a Faggot.”

Last updated on: August 7, 2014 at 9:12 pm By Rebecca Hamilton

You gotta remember: Ann Coulter called erstwhile presidential candidate and famous adulterer John Edwards “a faggot.” I do not think she was referring to a torch that people carry when they go to a lynching. I’m pretty sure that Ms Coulter was trying to say that former presidential candidate and besotted adulterer John Edwards is a homosexual. Aside from the fact that Mr Edwards’ flaming heterosexuality gifted him with a love child and put him in federal court defending his freedom, the salient point... Read more

The Black Mass is a Seduction. Don’t be Seduced.

I get that everyone is interested in the satanic black mass that is scheduled to happen next month in Oklahoma City. Satan is real. I believe that. There is a malicious presence which attacks and tempts us to do horrific things, including hate the God Who made us in His own image. The “black mass” is being advertised as a mockery of the real mass. The satanists claim that they have a consecrated Host that they are going to... Read more

Ebola. The Family Disease.

It’s been cooking for months. The question now is whether it will get out of the box. “It” is the long-smoldering Ebola outbreak in West Africa. The box, of course, is West Africa itself. Will a disease vector — meaning, an infected person — manage to infect someone else who is going to, say, Sudan, who infects someone else who is going to Egypt, who manages to get on a plane and end up in Instanbul? There are many... Read more

Archbishop Coakley Calls for Prayer, Procession and Benediction in Response to Black Mass

Last updated on: December 24, 2014 at 8:33 am By Rebecca Hamilton

My religious leader, Archbishop Paul Coakley has called for a season of “prayer, procession and benediction” due to the scheduled black mass here in Oklahoma. Self-identified satanists have held a black mass in the Oklahoma City Civic Center for the past several years in a row. Last year, no one — zero — turned out for their little show. Hopefully, Okies will continue with this no-response this year. Archbishop Coakley has called for Oklahoma 250,000 Catholics to join together... Read more

I Didn’t Know “Trickle Down Economics” Was in the Ten Commandments.

I didn’t know “trickle down economics” was in the Ten Commandments. I also didn’t know it was in the Sermon on the Mount. I remember things about “blessed are the poor” and “depart from me I never knew you.” But I missed that “trickle down economics” part. I guess it must be in the part that says that government should transfer the wealth of generations to a few corporatists under the guise of corporate welfare and “privatization.” Or maybe...

Catholic Patheosi Sisters in Christ. Lisa Hendey, Kathy Schiffer, Margaret Rose Realy. I’m the one in front, sitting down. Where do I start? Last week was the best. I’m still a wee bit tired from it, still absorbing and processing it. Where do I begin to tell you about it? I guess I’ll begin with the high point. The high point wasn’t spending time with my Catholic Patheosi sisters in Christ, although I can tell you that was a... Read more

Let’s Show Solidarity with Iraqi Christians

This is my new photo for Facebook. Patheos’ geek squad is still uber busy mopping up the big changes they made earlier this week. But I plan to change my photo as soon as they can do it for me. ISIS is leaving this symbol on the bodies of the Iraqi Christians they murder. It is the the 14th letter of the Arabic alphabet and is pronounced “noon.” The symbol stands for Nasara or Nazarenes, which is supposed to be... Read more

Iraq: We Made This Mess. What Are We Going to Do about It?

Our war in Iraq was a totally unnecessary war fought on false premises that has led directly to the present-day genocide of Iraqi Christians. We invaded Iraq on the premise that the leader of the country was a murderous crazy man who had “weapons of mass destruction” (read that nukes) at his disposal and we had to stop him before he … I dunno … he killed even more people than he had killed up to then. We got... Read more

HHS Mandate: NOW Obama Says He Wants to Compromise

Last updated on: July 25, 2014 at 3:54 pm By Rebecca Hamilton

Talk about giving the last drop of political blood. President Obama defended the HHS Mandate until it got swacked at the Supreme Court, then he and his supporters in the United States Senate tried to kill the court decision with statutes. Now, after all that, the White House announces that it will come up with an “opt-out alternative for Catholic and other religious employers.” I am guessing this is in advance of what he sees as a catastrophic (at least...
