In a town hall meeting in his home district, Stupak announced that even if his amendment failed, he would vote for the health care bill. So, if he could leverage anti-abortion language, he would. If he couldn’t, rather than force a failure on Obama and a return to the bargaining table, Stupak announced that he [...]

After my post detailing the news of Planned Parenthood handing Girl Scouts outrageously offensive sex-ed literature at a UN workshop, a commenter posted a reproval of me for not checking my facts. This person, writing under the pseudonym Catholic Leader, reported a GSUSA refutation to the widespread reports. What follows is Catholic Leader’s comment and [...]

Gerard from Illinois writes the following in the comboxes about Planned Parenthood and the Girl Scout Leadership: “The Centers for Disease Control report that fully one quarter of our nation’s adolescents have contracted some form of an STD. There are those who would say this is precisely why we need more sex ed and the [...]

NY Times: Obama the Christ
Posted in Health Care, tagged NY Times, Obama, Obamacare on March 16, 2010 | 4 Comments »
This photo of Obama from this past Sunday’s New York Times. The Cross. The Halo. The finger pointing Heavenward. The Temple (White House). The Sermon on the Mount. This isn’t photojournalism. This is Marxist-style propagandizing. The Times has dropped all pretense at journalistic objectivity. They have been waging war on Christianity for decades, with Evangelicals [...]
The Family: Crisis and Cure (I)
Posted in Family, tagged familiaris consortio, Pope John Paul II on March 14, 2010 | 1 Comment »
Pope John Paul II understood women, men, children and families with an almost supernatural degree of nuance. His writing is best savored slowly, so we’ll take our time going through his Apostolic Exhortation on the family as it is one of the definitive pro-life documents of the Church. APOSTOLIC EXHORTATION FAMILIARIS CONSORTIO OF POPE JOHN [...]

Posted in Uncategorized on March 13, 2010 |
Understanding the philosophical underpinnings for the Culture of Death is key to building a Culture of Life and a Civilization of Love. We’ll take a look at these philosophical Roots on a consistent basis. Pope John Paul II writes in Veritatis Slendor (The Splendor of Truth): “32. Certain currents of modern thought have gone so [...]
Ending Abortion and Gendercide: Try Authentic Feminism
Posted in Abortion, tagged Gendercide on March 12, 2010 | 3 Comments »
I have a new article today in Headline Bistro: There seems to be no end to the jokes about evil genies arising from a lantern and granting a wish, which carries with it an evil twist. The twist always leaves the individual disadvantaged. So it has been with the wishes of the radical feminists. Desiring [...]
The Dignity of Men
Posted in Dignity, tagged Dignity, familiaris consortio, Family, Pope John Paul II on March 12, 2010 | 2 Comments »
The host of life issues, riotous and varied as they are, share a very simple common thread. We have forgotten who we are and what it is we are supposed to be about. Perhaps the most lost among us are the men. That’s a tough one for me to choke out, but fearfully accurate. We [...]

This post has a few links that need to be read and worked through. The rewards for our youth are incalculable. Allstate Insurance and Planned Parenthood have a few things in common. Both want our teen and young adult children in their hands. Both seek to make money by doing so. Both would have us [...]

Repost. Pregnancy was a rude awakening for me. No matter how many guys told me that life changes forever with a positive EPT, there’s just no teacher like life herself. The cravings were the best. I’ll never forget going out into a snowstorm because Regina was dying for Haagen-Dazs chocolate ice cream. (I think it [...]

I didn’t write yesterday. I couldn’t. It wasn’t a day for writing. It was a day for processing all that I saw and heard at a United Nations conference the day before. The first session that I attended was conducted by a panel of eight women and one man who were conceived in rape, and [...]
