Speaker Pelosi, Meet the Press, & Archbishop Chaput
Meet the Press - Transcript - Brokaw & Pelosi
Creative Minority Report - Pelosi: St. Augustine Was Pro-Choice TooMR. BROKAW: Senator Obama saying the question of when life begins is above his pay grade, whether you're looking at it scientifically or theologically. If he were to come to you and say, "Help me out here, Madame Speaker. When does life begin?" what would you tell him?
REP. PELOSI: I would say that as an ardent, practicing Catholic, this is an issue that I have studied for a long time. And what I know is, over the centuries, the doctors of the church have not been able to make that definition. And Senator--St. Augustine said at three months. We don't know. The point is, is that it shouldn't have an impact on the woman's right to choose. Roe v. Wade talks about very clear definitions of when the child--first trimester, certain considerations; second trimester; not so third trimester. There's very clear distinctions. This isn't about abortion on demand, it's about a careful, careful consideration of all factors and--to--that a woman has to make with her doctor and her god. And so I don't think anybody can tell you when life begins, human life begins. As I say, the Catholic Church for centuries has been discussing this, and there are those who've decided...
MR. BROKAW: The Catholic Church at the moment feels very strongly that it...
REP. PELOSI: I understand that.
MR. BROKAW: ...begins at the point of conception.
REP. PELOSI: I understand. And this is like maybe 50 years or something like that. So again, over the history of the church, this is an issue of controversy. But it is, it is also true that God has given us, each of us, a free will and a responsibility to answer for our actions. And we want abortions to be safe, rare, and reduce the number of abortions. That's why we have this fight in Congress over contraception. My Republican colleagues do not support contraception. If you want to reduce the number of abortions, and we all do, we must--it would behoove you to support family planning and, and contraception, you would think. But that is not the case. So we have to take--you know, we have to handle this as respectfully--this is sacred ground. We have to handle it very respectfully and not politicize it, as it has been--and I'm not saying Rick Warren did, because I don't think he did, but others will try to.

Margaret Thatcher's struggle with dementia revealed in daughter's memoir
Carol Thatcher, her daughter states in her book , A Swim-on Part in the Goldfish Bowl: A Memoir: “I almost fell off my chair. Watching her struggle with her words and her memory, I couldn’t believe it. I had always thought of her as ageless, timeless and 100 per cent cast-iron damage-proof. The contrast was all the more striking because she’d always had a memory like a website.”
Any woman who understands the problems of running a home will be nearer to understanding the problems of running a country. Margaret Thatcher

St Mary's (Buddist Statue) in Australia
The Catholic Archbishop of Brisbane has put a parish on notice for not being in communion with the Roman Catholic Church.
Archbishop Bathersby says his authority is scarcely recognised by the parish of St Mary's and he has asked the community to decide whether it wants to be in communion with the church or operate independently.

'08 Election - Abortion Debate NEVER Left!

Will you please assist HIM and the millions of aborted babies in posting a comment?
Please do so...charity FIRST!
Pass the word....
2 Timothy 2:22-26
Flee the evil desires of youth, and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. Don't have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels. And the Lord's servant must not quarrel; instead, he must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful. Those who oppose him he must gently instruct, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of the truth, and that they will come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil, who has taken them captive to do his will.
This picture says a one word...scary!

Obama, Catholics and Abortion
"According to a newly released poll conducted for the National Women’s Law Center, a strong percentage of Catholic women — mirroring the sentiments of the general population — favors keeping abortion safe and legal."
WRONG! The poll DOES NOT 'mirror my sentiments'! And last time I looked....I'm in the general population!
One more thing...where's the stats on this poll you all conducted?

Update, Prayer Need, & Financial Need: Canadian Catholic Newspaper - Catholic Insight
Dismissal of homosexual activist’s complaint against Canadian Catholic magazine appealed
"Writing in a July 4 editorial on the Catholic Insight web site, the magazine’s editor Father Alphonse de Valk said the “persecution” of Catholic Insight might not be over, reporting that judicial review of the complaint’s dismissal is possible if filed within 30 days. He said the magazine, which he described as being “of modest budget,” is still liable for $20,000 in legal expenses."

Wonderful Saintly Founder of the eloquent Order of Preachers and friend of Saint Francis of Assisi, you were a fiery defender of the Faith and a fighter against the darkness of heresy.
