    Fr. Frank Pavone and his organization

    I'm personally kind of torn about its use but I must say that I never looked at it that way. It's a very interesting way to look at it.

    Why Catholicism?

    I wasn't really raised in any religion and by my freshmen year of high school I was a "militant" atheist. When I started my junior year I starting to wonder about religion and started to look into various religions. My senior year of high school I went through RICA and was baptized Easter of...

    Fr. Frank Pavone and his organization

    The only reason we were able to get him was because he was in town for a conference and my buddy and youth pastor at my Parish was able to contact him and see if he had time to come to the youth gathering since he was in town. He spoke and stayed for adoration. He also said that he is generally...

    Fr. Frank Pavone and his organization

    I was wondering if anyone here has had the chance to see Fr. Frank Pavone speak or someone from his organization Priests for Life. I had the chance to see Georgette Forney (I believe that is her name) from Anglicans for life and Fr. Pavone speak last night at a youth gathering and I found it...

    What Hillary and Obama both believe

    :amen: Bravo! I may defend the Democrats on here often but that is only because some of the stuff that is said about them is rather absurd. I really do not like either party very much this election cycle and I do not feel that there is a strong Catholic (Christian) candidate. On a side note...

    What Hillary and Obama both believe

    If we let the Bush tax cuts run out it will raise the top tax rate from its current level of 35% to to the Clinton level of 39.6%. This is how Obama, not sure about Hillary, plans to pay for "universal" health care. (I personally have issue with this but this is what they say.) Thankfully I...

    What Hillary and Obama both believe

    Amen Peter! Health care for all, lower the tax burden on the poor and the middle class, use the military wisely, promote renewable energy. If that isn't anti-American, hate speech, then I don't know what is! I do enjoy sarcasm but I really would like to know what exactly they say that is so...

    What Hillary and Obama both believe

    Thank you so much for this post! I was really worried that we Americans were starting to want some substance in our arguments. Sadly I think my generation may actually want more then just sound bites, witty commentary, and "decider's."

    Obamaromics

    I thought the whole idea behind universal health coverage was to lessen the financial burden of health care costs on people and make sure more (or everyone) has access to health care.

    Obamaromics

    What is it that Obama proposes that will cost so much money? I'm not trying to bait anyone here I really don't know. Universal health care, is that it?

    Obamaromics

    proof? And on a side note did I miss something? What does O-bomb-us stand for? Bomb us with taxes? Or did Obama say something I didn't hear about?

    Obamaromics

    I really have a tough time thinking that Obama would raise taxes 40%. Did Beck tell you how he got these numbers, you know his source? Also did he say who would be paying this supposed 40% increase? Would this tax increase be on the poor, middle class, rich, business? or did Beck simply say that...

    Soda or Pop?

    Here in Washington state it's pop. Although there are those pinko commies, like my wife and her family, who betray our culture and say Soda. :P

    Are you your brothers keeper? (universal health care)

    Government is not a person, you're right. I also agree with you that we the Christian community are to take care of each other. So why not use the best and most powerful means we have? Why not use the government? After all the government is (supposed to be): I go to public schools...

    Most recent concert you attended?

    I just got home from the last day of Creation NW. I got to see many good bands and best of all I got to finally see and worship with th David Crowder Band live! It was a blast! He played and altered guitar hero guitar during concert, pretty cool thing to see.
