POPSVatican Condemns Hallowe'en Last year a newspaper controlled by the Italian bishops, Avvenire, called for a boycott of Hallowe'en, calling it a "dangerous celebration of horror and the macabre" which could encourage "pitiless sects without scruples". Earlier this week the Catholic Church in Spain also condemned the growing popularity of Halloween, saying it threatened to overshadow the Christian festival of All Saints' Day. The Bishop of Siguenza-Guadalajara, Jose Sanchez, said there was a risk that Halloween could "replace Christian customs like devotion to saints and praying for the dead."

POPSReligion, Politics, & Hysteria This clip seems to point out the ham fisted way governments deal with real world problems. This particular story has its counterparts in other parts of the world too. Add the obvious anti-Christian sentiment often shown by the Muslim majority in Egypt plus the obvious ill informed method used to deal with a real problem and you receive this type of obvious screw up.

POPSAwww! Here they go again! Once again we hear the Christian Right screaming foul for being victimized. I seem to remember the story about the little boy crying wolf...

POPSThe Greatest Story Never Told: Modern Christian Martyrdom I'm not Catholic, just Christian. I decided to look this up because my faith comes under constant ridicule - called into question daily. Persecution does not require that I be physically beaten or killed. Verbal abuse seems to be rampant, not only on Clipmarks, but in general. How soon before verbal attacks progress to physical attacks? It's happening all over the world already.

Parents across this country need to be pro-active in ferreting out, exposing, and challenging those public school educators who are increasingly bold in their willingness to use taxpayer-subsidized curricula to promote anti-Christian bigotry and discrimination. Don't assume this is a problem only in colleges and universities. Dawkins' God Delusion video has been shown even in high schools. The film and play versions of the wildly inaccurate, anti-Christian Inherit the Wind are routinely used in public schools. The blasphemous play Angels in America: A Gay Fantasia on National Themes is taught in high schools. Staying Fat for Sarah Byrnes, which is taught both in high schools and middle schools, depicts conservative Christians as, in the words of Kirkus Reviews, "humorless dupes or hypocrites." And the pro-gay, anti-Christian play The Laramie Project, based on the murder of Matthew Shepard, is routinely taught and performed at high schools around the country. One wonders how often the 2

POPSObama's Pro-Abortion Fanaticism Could Close 1/3 of All Hospitals The freedom of conscience acts are laws that allow Catholic hospitals and health providers that receive public funds through Medicaid and Medicare to opt out of performing abortions. Without public funds, these health centers couldn't stay open; if forced to do abortions, they would sooner close their doors. Even the prospect of selling the institutions to other providers wouldn't be an option, the bishops have said, because that would constitute "material cooperation with an intrinsic evil." Christianity is hated by liberals because it provides a moral basis for resistance. Driving Christians out of healthcare would obviously advance the liberal agenda. If the closures cause a crisis, so much the better. As the economy has been proving so graphically lately, every crisis is an opportunity for statists to push us closer to socialism.

POPSLiberal Tolerance - Item 234,882 Those who oppose must be crushed. Seems like we see this all the time from the loving and heart-felt supporters of mankind who call themselves "progressives".

POPSMichigan Left Storms Church The church's response? After things settled down, the blasphemy ended, the lewd props removed and the families safe from fear of additional men and women running into and past them the pastor took the stage and led the congregation in one more prayer... not for retribution, or divine justice or a celestial comeuppance (that's what I'd have prayed for) but instead that the troubled individuals who'd just defiled the Lord's house, so full of anger and hate, would know Jesus' love in their lives and God's peace that exceeds human understanding. Yesterday morning defined the difference between a church of believers and Michigan liberals. It also illustrated in shocking, painful detail precisely what we're up against.

POPSSanteria followers fight for religious freedom Pichardo thought Santeria needed to be more organized to enjoy its full legal rights. He put those rights to the test in the late 1980s, when he tried to open a worship hall in Hialeah. Many of his fellow Cuban-Americans howled in protest. Some said it was Satanic or anti-Christian. They also protested the slaying of animals on the property, and in 1987, the city council passed a law banning "public ritualistic animal sacrifices." The church argued that its constitutional religious rights had been violated, and six years later, the law was struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court.

POPSPalin Supports and Promotes Freemasonry Her recent declaration, April 2008, encourages, supports, and promotes various Masonic secret societies which are anti-Christian in their secret oaths, rites, symbolism, and ceremonies that push a philosophical and spiritual global agenda behind their outward charities. Even the anti-Christian Deist Thomas Paine wrote that freemasonry can be traced back to Druidism . Freemasonry teaches Deism and rejects the authority of scripture (while they hypocritically swear upon it), and takes a Deistic interpretation of the Bible. Again, the "christian conservatives" should take note of what "their candidate" is really all about instead of being naive. (Bush is a member, like Kerry too, of Skull & Bones).
