Catholics to Picket Cdl. Roger Mahony's Huge Pro-'Gay' Dissent-Fest As Pope Benedict XVI Prepares to Visit the United States, L.A.'s Archbishop is Slapping Him in the Face by Hosting Many Speakers Who Undermine Catholic Teachings ANAHEIM, Feb. 29 /Christian Newswire/ -- "It's a disgrace! Roger Cardinal Mahony of Los Angeles will subject tens of thousands of Catholics to indoctrination by some of the Church's most notorious pro-'gays' and dissenters--even though our Pope Benedict XVI expects bishops to shun dissent and teach the Church's official doctrines." With these words, Kenneth M. Fisher, Chairman of Concerned Roman Catholics of America, Inc. (CRCOA), announced that on Saturday, March 1, 2008, from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., his organization will demonstrate at Cardinal Mahony's Religious Education Congress, the world's largest training event for Catholic schoolteachers. (The Congress will take place at the Anaheim Convention Cent...

Coming soon Planned Parenthood’s Barack Obama as the Abortionist President. Fred Barack Obama before Planned Parenthood Action Fund, July 17, 2007 Dessa Cosma: [W]hat would you do at the federal level not only to ensure access to abortion but to make sure that the judicial nominees that you will inevitably be able to pick are true to the core tenets of Roe v. Wade? Barack Obama: Well, the first thing I’d do as president is, is sign the Freedom of Choice Act. [http://lauraetch.googlepages.com/barackobamabeforeplannedparenthoodaction]

[Barack Hussein Obama] said, "for the first time in Gonzales versus Carhart, the Supreme Court held—upheld a federal ban on abortions with criminal penalties for doctors. For the first time, the Court’s Obama an abortion restriction without an exception for women’s health. The decision presumed that the health of women is best protected by the Court—not by doctors and not by the woman herself. That presumption is wrong." Notice, he doesn't use the words, "Partial-birth Abortion, " because just the name is disgusting and probably because 80% of the American people want it banned and here is why: In this late term gruesome procedure, the entire baby is delivered except for the head, which they make sure stays in the birth canal (otherwise it would be murder), then the back of the baby's head is stabbed with scissors, the hole is enlarged, a rube is inserted and the baby's brains are sucked out with a powerful machine. All the while the baby suffers excruci...

NEA Pushes Homosexuality in School Booklet, Group Says By Randy Hall CNSNews.com Staff Writer/Editor February 26, 2008 (CNSNews.com) - A 24-page pamphlet sent to all 16,000 public school superintendents in the United States -- by a coalition led by the National Education Association and the American Psychological Association -- is "a renewed effort" to protect the well-being of all students, including, the pamphlet says, "those who are at higher risk because of their sexual orientation." However, a national pro-family group is criticizing the publication as "giving parents 16,000 new reasons to question the agenda of national teachers' union leaders" and is offering a flier of its own to equip parents "to oppose this promotion of homosexuality in your child's school." "Just the Facts About Sexual Orientation and Youth: A Primer for Principals, Educators and School Personnel" serves as a guide for public school employees "wh...

A web service from Trinity Communications. © 2008 Tuesday, February 26, 2008 Do Mad Scientists Control the World? Dear Mr. Martinez, One wonders why so many politicians wish to protect the kind of experiments which, just a few decades ago, would have been conducted only in horror movies featuring mad scientists. In the present instance, I refer to the proposed legislation in the United Kingdom permitting the creation of hybrid human-animal embryos. I suppose one does not really need to wonder for very long. In our fallen state, we have a powerful thirst for total autonomy and a painless way to cheat death. It's as if someone is whispering in our ears: "You certainly will not die! No, God knows well that the moment you [do this] your eyes will be opened and you will be like gods" (Gn 3:4-5). What one really wonders is how a serpent with a crushed head can still speak persuasively. Anyway, the Church in the UK is putting up a fight. See, among other evidence, the letter fr...
