Is This the Future?
This story told in 1999 about a Bishop turned Pope facing off against a Godless President seems eerily prescient, predicting – a little too closely – our current situation.
Silence
The post decries the lack of response from religious leaders, particularly Cardinal Cupich, to Planned Parenthood’s mobile unit providing free reproductive services in Chicago during the Democratic National Convention, comparing it to silence over a blasphemous Olympic event.
The Deadly Duo
He walks on stage, arms waving, huge smile, even a dance kick or two like a rock star. Yessir, VP candidate Tim Walz is living the dream. He’s a White House wannabe who can talk incessantly on anything and wants to spread so-called Midwestern values. And Kamala Harris, huge grin, huge laugh, joining Walz in…
An Evil Twist
Kamala Harris’s potential presidential campaign already looks like propaganda and brainwashing efforts. Harris’s focus on women’s rights seems to be a façade for promoting abortion and it’s likely that the media, controlled by women, will be biased against Trump and Vance. It also posits that liberal ideologies have eroded family values and suggests that Harris’s campaign will further such policies while misrepresenting facts. The author perceives this election as sinister and laden with deceit, urging prayers for divine protection and intervention.
Happy Father’s Day!
Fathers play a crucial role in shaping a child’s worldview and providing emotional, physical, and spiritual stability. The Bible emphasizes the importance of fatherhood in guiding families with love and discipline. Abortion disproportionately affects Black communities, diminishing fatherhood’s value and causing significant demographic losses. This impact is intertwined with systemic issues, highlighted by historical and ongoing advocacy against abortion within African American communities.
Care?
The author criticizes Planned Parenthood, accusing it of using deceptive slogans and telehealth services to promote abortions for profit. They allege that Planned Parenthood prioritizes financial gains over genuine care, exploiting election periods and influencing public opinion through misleading campaigns. The author doubts the safety and ethics of chemical abortions and dismisses the organization’s motives.
How Dare He!
Recent displays of Catholic faith used to support more abortions were initially called out by a Bishop, but he cowered when challenged – the Bishops need to speak up!
Where is Truth?
“What is truth?” Pilate asked Jesus. I have a hard time when reading those words aloud because there are two ways to interpret them. Most people take them at face value, an honest question about the meaning of truth. On the other hand, what if, in truth, Pilate had a “who cares” inflection to the words. What…
Imagining
The local parish’s updated Stations of the Cross booklet, focused on imaginative engagement with Christ’s perspective, caused discontent particularly by interfering with the point of saying the stations, impacting the writer’s husband, who misses the traditional solemnity. It seems the booklet is unsuitable for group worship.
No Big Deal
We all have them, the eight-inch votive candles of Jesus, Mary, and the Saints. They keep us grounded in the real things that matter in our lives. And on February 11, another entry in the candle world: there he was, grinning like Jolly Jesus on an eight-inch votive with an image of what looked like a heart encircled with thorns…
