You know it’s bad when the New York Times finally gets around to reporting news of such horror. This is so bad at so many levels, it is impossible to deal with it all in one post. But there are lessons here we must understand. Conversely, we could continue to put our collective heads in …

Pope Francis wants to stir things up; but not in Cuba
Apparently, that whole “Pope Francis wants to stir things up” applies only to efforts within the Church to destroy the Church. And while he’s totally down with meeting with the stars of the freak show that the Freaker-in-Chief Obama has arranged for him, when it comes to the dissidents in Cuba, eh, not so much. …

The “F-Word” spoken here.
I can’t make this stuff up. The Obesity Action Coalition (OAC) wants to ban the “F-Word” from television. Not that F Word. The FAT F-word. I assume that by extension, that includes El Gordo, blubber butt, and The Spherical One. At least that’s the message coming from the latest OAC Synod recently convened at the …

ISIS Threatens to Kill
Matt Archbold over at Creative Minority Report posted this. Because I agree with him that we need to increase political pressure and not allow it to be swept under the rug, I re-post it here. As Matt suggests: Pray. God have mercy on us all. Ultimatum: ISIS To Kill 150 Christians Unless Obama Stops Airstrikes …

He ain’t weeping anymore.
But, you, O LORD of hosts, O just Judge, searcher of mind and heart, Let me witness the vengeance you take on them, for to you I have entrusted my cause! Jeremiah 11:20 One of the biggest challenges of the Christian life is to keep our eyes on the big picture. We get caught up …

Dolan’s Great Ecclesiastical Balancing Act.
Sure. You might go to hell. But at least Cardinal Dolan didn’t judge you. I expect you’ll get a chance to thank him. In person. H/T to Creative Minority Report Cardinal Timothy Dolan of New York praised University of Missouri football star Michael Sam for coming out as gay, saying he would not judge …

Finally. An appropriate use for a Harley Davidson.
Personally, I think Harley guys are a little off kilter to begin with. I mean, really. Overpriced. Underpowered. Noisy. Vibrating. And those are just the good points. So I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. But this is strange at so many different levels. But here’s the headline: Ohio man buried riding his 1967 Harley-Davidson motorcycle …

It’s a twofer.
Bad news comes in waves. Good news comes in drips. But here’s two delightful drips. Go figure. First, the Catholic bishop of Springfield, Ill., claiming same-sex marriage is the work of the devil, says he will perform an exorcism ceremony next week. The exorcism by Bishop Thomas Paprocki at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception …

I thought it was “survival of the fittest.”
Jackass! So let’s get this straight, an evolutionist (who by definition thinks everything is “progressing”) all of the sudden thinks that a particular species – oh, that happens to be the human species – is progressing, and he gets all jiggy about the survival of the species. And all this time, I thought that if …

Don’t you just hate it when a baby lives.
Critics of in vitro fertilization cite, among other things, that multiple embryos are used and destroyed. One couple who was unable to conceive and “so wanted a baby” now disclose that they are “pissed” upon learning that they are blessed with twins. Can you imagine any other venue where a “2 for the price of …
