Got an email today from a friend of mine inviting me to attend a pre-screening of the movie Fireproof – a faith based movie from the creators of Facing the Giants about a fireman who fights to save his struggling marriage. I wrote about it last month: “Fireproof”, Marriage and World Peace. The trailor: I signed up for my tickets … Read More
I Wanna Have Your Babies
This is a great song from Natasha Bedingfield – and refreshing considering the anti-Marriage/family “hook-up” mentality plaguing our young people today: I Wanna Have Your Babies Video From the song: I wanna have your babies Get serious like crazy I wanna have your babies I see ’em springin up like daisies Remember the good old days when all “dating” really … Read More
John McCain and Embryonic Stem Cells
Last week there was a big comment discussion on one of Jay’s posts about what John McCain’s position on ESC research actually is anymore. It seems there has been some confusion lately. He very vaguely addressed this during last Saturday’s Civil Forum with Rick Warren at his Saddleback church, but let’s look at everything, shall we? For years John McCain … Read More
Breaking the Chain of Violence and Hatred
The Daily Mail has a beautiful story of a young girl who refused to have an abortion despite the fact that her child was conceived in a brutal gang rape. Sadly, “Elizabeth” and her mother were almost completely alone in this decision (names have been changed for legal reasons): “One of the few things that Elizabeth is sure of is … Read More
Attention Roman Catholics for Obama
Obama, the Freedom of Choice Act, Abortion and the Catholic Church (h/t American Papist): “Catholics can support “pro-choice” candidates if they support them despite — not because of — their “pro-choice” views. But they also need a compelling proportionate reason to justify it. What is a ‘proportionate’ reason when it comes to the abortion issue? It’s the kind of reason … Read More
Barack Obama and Infanticide: Indefensible
When the man votes against a bill supported nationally by every major pro-abortion Democrat in Congress and unopposed by America’s largest abortion rights organization, there really is no defense except that he believes it is perfectly acceptable practice for hospitals and abortion clinics to put infants on shelves to die so long as someone was trying to kill them before … Read More
All Men are Created Equal
A nice little video from ProLifeUnity.com: Also said by Abraham Lincoln: “If by the mere force of numbers a majority should deprive a minority of any clearly written constitutional right, it might in a moral point of view justify revolution; certainly would if such right were a vital one.” (March 4, 1861)
None of the Above – Updated*
WND has bumper stickers and buttons for those who can’t stand the thought of voting for either Barack Obama or John McCain. I still don’t know what the right answer is here. Many are waiting to see who John McCain picks as his VP candidate. I’ve heard names like Sarah Palin and Mitt Romney (puke). One name that is apparently … Read More
An Altar of Life Giving Sacrifice
In honor of my very good friend enduring a painful 27 hours of labor in order to bring her first child, boy Kale, into the world yesterday morning I share this passage from Scott Hahn’s book, First Comes Love. It is a beautiful commentary on what it was like to witness his wife, Kimberly, go through 30 hours of labor … Read More
The Consolation of the Christian Faith
A great quote I found last week: Jesus suffers to carry out the will of the Father. And you, who also want to carry out the most holy will of God, following the steps of the Master, can you complain if you meet suffering on your way? St. Josemaria Escriva, The Way n. 213 Another Christian man once told me, … Read More
