  • Child Porn Seminary In Austria Closed

    You may have heard about the seminary in Austria where massive amounts of child pornography was discovered… Well, Bishop Kung who went to investigate it, has shut it down. There was a blackout of commentary while he investigated, so not a whole lot of news until now. Apparently, the staff, administration and students have been…

  • My Old Take on Achievement

    Before becoming Catholic and relearning what success and achievement are, I was very much into the self-development and Positive Mental Attitude stuff. Still am to a degree, though I find that I now spend a lot of time picking over the materials and re-thinking it to conform to my faith. Anyway, I still get these…

  • Archbishop Burke Makes the News Again

    Catholic World News is reporting that Archbp. Burke has removed two priests and suspended Mass at a local parish that has adopted an illegal governing structure. Seems that this parish created a non-profit corporation and is run by a lay board of advisors. Well, not advisors. They are like the board of directors. Apparently this…

  • The Show Me State Shows `Em!

    Missouri voters approve ban on gay “marriage”…. I still worry that the courts will find a way to circumvent all these amendments and laws and lay a smackdown on what used to be the defining institution of Western society. Didn’t matter the religious beliefs… Marriage used to be seen as the bedrock you built society…

  • Kerry Picks Anti-“Under God” Religion Advisor

    Got this one off of NewsMax this morning… Apparently Johnny-boy thinks a religious advisor who insults Christians is OK. Personally, I doubt it matters to people of deep, traditional (read historic and conservative) faith anyway, as they aren’t likely to vote for a pro-abort candidate. Of course this is only marginally better than his previous…

  • Australian Churches Move to Work Together

    We Maniacs discussed this internally somewhat yesterday… Actually, it was mentioned and then commented on by HeathenBoy. It then degenerated into an intense discussion on the religious worldview of said HeathenBoy. Interesting day to say the least. Anyway, Australia’s Catholic Bishops and representatives of 14 Protestant denominations committed to a sharing of resources and ministers.…

  • Planned Parenthood Sickness

    OK. This is totally sick. SICK SICK SICK!!!!!!!! Planned Parenthood has announced for sale a new blood red (how appropriate) t-shirt that states “I had an abortion.” Now you too can walk around town proudly proclaiming the fact that you killed your defenseless, innocent child in your very own womb! How wonderful! And only $15…

  • Notes From the Church Teaches Forum

    Wow… So busy, but since the Deacon hasn’t gotten off his Deke yet to post some notes, I figured I ought to. 🙂 Friday night Deacon, Mrs. Deacon, myself and Mrs. Fric met up at the Galt House for the first night of the Church Teaches Forum. The Forum is put on by Eternal Life,…

  • The Church and Politics

    Hey guys… Been really busy with this new contract of late. It’s making even weekend blogging a hard thing to come by. Had a couple of minutes and I wanted to make a point or two. Every liberal, pro-abort, big-government, socialist Democrat in America can go to any church in the country and make speeches…

  • Disturbing Trend With Some Web Commenters…

    I surf a lot of different news sites and blogs, like a lot of you I am sure… I have noticed that there are an awful lot of angry Catholics out there. Well, duh, Fric! OK. OK. I deserved that. Seriously though, the places I go to you would expect Catholics of the orthodox bent.…
