In addition to all the stuff I put out there, cluttering up cyberspace, we’ve decided to expand the Blog team to 4. I’ll let them introduce themselves to you and decide how much to say about themselves. Briefly, they are: Guvner – A revert to the faith after several years spent wandering in the wilderness.…

Most of you probably know who Jimmy Akin… He’s the main apologetics dude over at Catholic Answers. And he’s into all sorts of similar stuff to the staff here at Catholic Maniacs. What stuff? Babylon 5 and its creator Michael J. Straczynski Stargate SG1 Jonny Quest (Go Here) And he seems to share similar views…

The Church is the rock. Denominations that blow with the wind are shrinking, and those that hold to the old values are growing. Folks are looking for stability, they want their church to be a refuge from constant change.

Go here. The President of VOTF publicly shows his true intentions in my opinion. He is pissed because there are Bishops in the Church who DARE to uphold the timeless teaching of the Church. VOTF has so far stayed out of most non-abuse issues in the Church, but this guy felt the need to speak…

He is most often talking about current issues in the Church or interesting apologetics that come up. This week’s issue is about responses to the…

I missed out on so much stuff that could have been commented on. Darn it! I will comment on several things though. The first is the statement by Bishop Aquila about pro-abort Catholics. The Bishop, showing the proverbial episcopal spine that Mark Shea talks about, has said that pro-abort Catholics risk their very souls to…

OK, we are back up and running for the most part. Got the old PC running for the most part, though I am still somewhat wary of it lasting because of what happened. I will be replacing or upgrading this thing ASAP. In the meantime, I will be backing it up ASAP as well. 🙂

Man, there are times when I wish God didn’t trust me as much as He seems to. My computer seems to have fried today. Was taking a break playing a game and it shuts down, pops and a smoky smell comes out of it. So, either I have burned out the power supply or the…
