Catholic Clergy Ask Bishops to Keep Mass Holy

National Coalition of American Nuns (NCAN) sent letter to the Bishops of the United States (USCCB)

Vatican Information Services:10-30-07

THE MEDIA: AT THE CROSSROADS BETWEEN ACTIVISM AND SERVICE. Seeking the Truth in order to share it with others" is the theme chosen by Benedict XVI for the 42nd World Communications Day, due to be celebrated on May 4, 2008. In a communique released today Archbishop Claudio Maria Celli, president of the Pontifical Council for Social Communications, writes that such a theme "calls on us to reflect on the role played by the media and especially the increasing risk of their becoming self-absorbed and no longer tools at the service of truth - something which is meant to be sought and shared." .../IN BRIEF/...VIS 071030 (250)

Before the Last Conclave: "What I Told the Future Pope"

My fav. from Cardinal Biffi's book on their time in the conclave and his comments to the soon to be elected pope:

"1. After hearing all of the statements - correct, opportune, impassioned - that have been made here, I would like to express to the future pope (who is listening to me now) my complete solidarity, concord, understanding, and even a bit of my fraternal compassion. But I would also like to suggest to him that he not be too worried about what he has heard here, and that he not be too frightened. The Lord Jesus will not ask him to resolve all the world's problems. He will ask him to love him with extraordinary love: 'Do you love me more than these?' (cf. John 21:15).


GO HOLY SPIRIT GO!

In Iowa:Report: Illegal workers no burden

The real reason we have an illegal immigration situation...$$$ and votes! Duh...

The $40 million paid to the state treasury by undocumented workers would increase if more of them worked "on the books" and if the state cracked down on employers paying cash and not withholding taxes, the researchers said.

"If Iowa wants to increase state tax revenue, it can do it two ways," said Pearson. "By increasing the percentage of workers paying tax on their income or by increasing the workers' wages."

North American Union? No chance, says US ambassador
Does this sound weird to you?

There's an effort to try to get North America more prosperous to continue in the global economy, and maybe be prepared to deal with cross-border emergencies so if something happened at this bridge or the Ambassador Bridge it wouldn't shut the border down. Or with an avian flu epidemic, we could help each other out. Or make more compatible our regulations so we don't bog each other down with red tape."

Something's not right....why isn't that an issue for our Defense Departments or our Homeland Security? Something's REALLY wrong with these statement!

( "Building a North American Community")


"The most important feature of the SPP is that it does not require congressional ratification or the passage of any federal legislation by the congress of the United States . This design places the negotiation fully within the authority of the executive branch in the United States . How else would Mexican truckers be able to begin operating in the USA over the objections of Congress, American truckers and most of the American people?"
