  • The Church is correct...on its terms. What's the alternative

    I posted this earlier as a reply, but I'd like to posit it as a new post as I'm interested in whether people are willing to face the logical conclusions of the views opposed to the Church. And, I wonder whether the Church needs to change despite the alternatives.... When the Vatican talks about the ''Culture of Death,'' it is talking about the ...

  • Re: Overpopulation

    When the Vatican talks about the ''Culture of Death,'' it is the attitude expressed in this post (sarcastic or not) that it is talking about. Materialism and atheism logically leads to the conclusion that there is no inherent good in humanity, and that there is no moral difference between humans and rats save our own self interest. This leads to ...

  • Wow -- What a Rant by "Rage Boy" Chris Hitch Today

    I am perfectly content, really quite happy, about Obama's decision to have this mega-Church author, pastor, and cultural figure, Rick Warren, give the prayer at the January 20th Inauguration of our new United States President. I understand the apoplexy of ''Rage Boy'' Christopher Hitchens at the very thought of a prayer being said, let alone a ...

  • Liberal Media Lies

    Political logic augurs a Democratic triumph in looming US elections but Barack Obama’s White House duel with John McCain is still a statistical tie, prompting some to wonder why he is yet to break away. Political logic augurs a democratic triumph? Augur: To predict, especially from signs or omens; foretell. What signs or omens are they looking ...

  • Separate person

    ''How can South Dakota claim that you should know separation will kill the fetus, when South Dakota has insisted on informing you, prior to the procedure, that the fetus is already whole and separate?'' Saletan's question obfuscates the distinction between what ''separate' means legally and what it means biologically. The fetus is biologically ...

  • Democrats in Congress Failed Us All 8 Years

    The Democrats and Democratic Party failed to stand up for what is right for the entire eight years of the Bush / Cheney White House misrule. They gave away our American two-party system; they gave away majority rule; they gave away our civil rights and bill of rights and civil liberties; they gave away the constitutional authority of the ...
