When I take a look at the world around me I just have to wonder what happened. There is hatred and violence where ever we turn. It doesn't matter who you are, what race, religion or political affiliation, someone out there hates you. Who is to blame? There is no one person or even group that is …

Another Attack From the Progressives
I know my usual Sunday posts are mostly non-political and maybe later I'll write another, but I have to take issue with that bastion of mainstream media ignorance, MSNBC, on a recent story about how the Catholic Church needs to change its position on contraception. In a story from Saturday, MSNBC once again attacks the …
A Waylaid Catholic
In yesterday's post I talked about whether or not we need God in our lives. Obviously I think we do as the evidence of us pushing Him away becomes more and more evident with each passing day. With that, I have a confession to make... I was part of the problem. You see I grew …
Big Brown and the Boy Scouts
It's been a few posts since I've written about politics on this blog, so it's about time. I received a press release from the Family Research Council regarding their decision to not ship anything via UPS any longer. This is because of UPS's decision to no longer fund the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) because they discriminate. As stated …
Let’s Reverse the Trend
A recent article on TownHall.com written by John Hawkins in which he outlines five signs that American society is degenerating. I agree with all five and can be all traced to one main cause. The five signs are as follows: Dependency Debt Decay in entertainment Politics Marriage When you read Hawkins' descriptions of these five, …
The Subversion of Morality Continues
I often write about the Progressive movement and how they are constantly undermining Christian beliefs. They want to be in charge, they don't want God to be in charge, they don't want a young person's parents to be in charge, they want to control your thinking, your mores. Here is a "Guide" put out by …
Evil and the Light
There are many people out there today, two days after the reelection of Barack Obama, who are wondering "What's next?' While this is true for many diverse groups, it is especially true for devout Catholics. We can argue over whether the "Five non-negotiables" are really negotiable, whether Mitt Romney being a Mormon hurt him with …
Killing Is Wrong
A couple of posts ago I was accused by a commentor of forcing my opinion on others because I believe that abortion should be illegal. The argument was if I supported such a law and the law passed then that would be forcing my opinion on others. Of course the commentor fails to see that the opposite must also be …
Woe To Those Who Call Evil Good
Episcopalians will be meeting at their annual convention this week in Indianapolis, and one of the items on their agenda will be same-sex marriage. The question is whether or not they will adopt the blessing of these in their liturgy. When God called me back to the church, I gave a lot of thought to …
SCOTUS Ruling: Forget About It
For three days now I have been reading about Obamacare and the SCOTUS decision and whether it's good or bad, especially regarding the current fight against the HHS mandate. Let me sum it up this way: IT DOESN'T MATTER!Why? Becasue whether or not this ruling will affect the HHS mandate (personally I don't think it …
