'Pope's Secret Service Agent Spots Someone In The Crowd'
For a little boy in a wheelchair with muscular dystrophy who had come all the way to New York from Corpus Christi, TX to get a glimpse of the Pope; a little boy who thought he had no hope of getting inside St. Patrick's Cathedral to see the mass; this day would turnout to be a beautiful day, unlike any other in his life: Thanks to one of the Secret Service agents safeguarding Pope Benedict XVI ...

Video Game Calls For Killing 'Homicidal Jesus Christs'
As Christians have long been accustomed to, here's yet another example of a moronic "artist" using asinine mis-logic and severely stretched pseudo-reasoning to justify attacking the Christian faith, in this case Jesus Christ, in order to feel important and appear as though he had a lick of sense. The artist (sic) is Eric Medine, who describes his 'work' (more like a 'piece of work') as "a video game linked to projectors and TV monitors - the "ultimate arbitration between politics and Christianity. The ebb and flow of religion can now be felt on the video game screen." (say what ?????):... ... morePosted at 11:40 AM

Leading Archaeologists Call Discovery Channel's 'Lost Tomb of Jesus' Claim A Publicity Stunt
As Judi McCleod writes at CFA, "It must be Lent. Not only has Canadian-born Titanic producer James Cameron found the tomb of Jesus Christ--backed up with what he claims is the DNA to prove it--but also his discovery was announced on Time Magazine's blog.""It's a publicity stunt, and it will make these guys very rich, and it will upset millions of innocent people because they don't know enough to separate fact from fiction." ... "I'm not a Christian. I'm not a believer. I don't have a dog in this fight," ... I just think it's a shame the way this... ... morePosted at 12:50 PM | Comments (2)

SCOTUS Okays Discrimination Against Christians?
Apparently SCOTUS believes that it's okay to promote and endorse the religions of Judaism and Islam, but not Christianity. One can only conclude that discrimination against Christians - only, is perfectly A-okay! Last time I checked, Christmas was a Christian holiday. With SCOTUS' refusal to review the appeals court case, Santa Claus rates higher than Jesus Christ. Related: A predominantly Christian nation founded on Judeo-Christian values has now turned its back on the very values and faith that has made it such a great nation. A 2001 ARIS survey determined that:76.5% of American adults are Christian (52% Protestant; 24.5% Catholic).... ... morePosted at 9:11 AM | Comments (1)

Number Of Catholics Surpass Anglicans In UK As Plans Are Revealed For Anglicans To Reunite With The Roman Catholic Church
A few days ago The Times reported that the number of Roman Catholics in the UK would surpass the number of Anglicans for the first time since the Reformation, primarily due to massive migration from Catholic countries across the world. Today, El Presidente at Slapstick Politics points to what he refers to as a "shocker": A plan to reunite Anglicans with the Roman Catholic Church under the leadership of the Pope. Personally, I don't find this to be much of a surprise, at least so far as the UK is concerned. The plan surely will have detractors in the UK... ... morePosted at 11:52 AM

ABC Attacks Fallen Soldier's Belief In The Afterlife
Incredibly, it appears that ABC has no problem adding religious insult to mortal injury in its coverage of the 3000th US service-person to die in Iraq, in which they seem to suggest that there is something odd or erroneous in a fallen soldier's expression of a traditional belief in the afterlife: Today's "Good Morning America" focused on the death of Army Specialist Dustin Donica of Texas, believed to be that 3000th serviceman lost in Iraq. Narrating the segment, ABC's Jonathan Karl stated: "The MySpace page he left behind bears the tributes of those whose lives he touched." The screen then... ... morePosted at 8:47 PM | Comments (1)

Pope and Archbishop issue joint declaration
I call this a very positive event in the history of the Church - Pope Benedict and Archbishop Christodoulos of Greece called for the full union in faith of their churches and proclaimed a joint responsbility to overcome past difficulties, and call on scientists to respect human life:"Our meeting in charity makes us more aware of our joint task: together to follow the arduous path of dialogue in truth in order to re-establish full communion of faith. ... Thus we obey a divine mandate ... and continue our commitment, ... following the example of the Apostles and demonstrating mutual love... ... morePosted at 11:14 AM

BBC interviews Richard Dawkins about 'The God Delusion'
If this video doesn't help those of us who believe in God, realize the importance of not rolling over to the invasion of ssecularism and modernism that has left a void of faith in a West under attack by Islamists, and falling victim to them, nothing will.

Abdul Rahman: Dead Man Walking?
You knew this was coming... Hundreds of people protested in Afghanistan on Monday against a court's decision to drop a case against a man who converted from Islam to Christianity, while an official said discussions were under way to determine when he would be released. Muslim clerics have threatened to incite Afghans to kill Rahman if he is freed, saying that he is clearly guilty of apostasy and deserves to die. MSNBC.com Apparently, the State Dept. is taking care of the arrangements:"He will be released," State Department spokesman Sean McCormack told reporters. "I understand now that the details of his... ... morePosted at 1:50 PM
