The #Oscar season has begun; this great article summarizes the contenders, sight unseen, in light of recent history.

A Protestant theologian weeps on Reformation Sunday.

Medved is right. The race-baiting in today’s efforts to get out the vote, demonstrate Obama’s failure to unite.

To use Elton John’s logic, I love Elton John’s Gregorian Chant. It’s so different from all pop music released in the 70s/80s.

Praise and worship, the Charismatic Renewal, and, yes, Pope Francis.

To reverse the disastrous effects of #ReformationDay, may I introduce… Pope Francis.

This is powerful. Survivors of human trafficking can get a fresh start.

Now that NYC has allowed one politically motivated group to march #StPatricksDay, will this allow others to join in?

My heart cries for these victims. But I’ve no time for inept law proposals that will not stop such from reoccurring.

“Not only is the ice not melting, more polar bears are alive and happy today than we’ve had in 100 years.”

Are TV networks even trying to come up with new material? Or were they lying when they said “we want creativity?”

The #family is under attack… by major cultural shifts (that are much bigger and different than the usual suspects).

Hey, media outlets! The Pope has said some stuff about the family. Will we see this on tonight’s news?

I don’t care for one’s politics; it’s just that the moment a comic newscast becomes partisan, it’s no longer funny.

Today’s students have it tough. Adults forget this all too easily. Here’s a teacher who entered their world.

My parish’s Christmas Eve services are a logistical nightmare, w/ enough headaches to discourage anyone returning.

“Playing electric guitar does something to you… all that electricity racing through my body made me keep my hair.”

Pope Francis Says Forces Of Gravity And Electromagnetism Are Real. #MyFaithIsShaken #HowCanIEverSurvive

Obama should know by now… he cannot beat the Domino’s Pizza magnate law school into submission. #HHSMandateDefeat

Praying as Blessed Mother Teresa prayed.

Apparently, some people still believe that the Fort Hood victims had access to guns. Let’s set the record straight.

The shooting of Michael Brown is a tragedy; but that doesn’t mean that we should build a mob mentality over lies.

In case you missed it. If you are in #CatholicYouthMinistry, or if you have a passion for the youth, I need your help.

Interesting article about creating a unified worship style for a church. Thoughts?

If you are still not getting how cool Black and White movies are, perhaps you should rediscover Raiders this way.

Yes. THIS. I happen to greatly admire Pope Francis. But the euphoria of the secular press is waaay out of control.

The church needs to come up with a way to reach singles, during the most formative times in their lives.

Here’s a story of when science and faith clashed, and it was the scientist who was rocked.

The bigger question is, will Millennials vote this year?

Whatever your politics, we can at least agree that if you help a non-U.S. resident vote, then this is a bad thing.

Planned Parenthood is the #WarOnWomen mafia; they can lie all they want, they know nobody in the MSM will report it.

So Pope Francis says the Devil is real, and yet the MSM is still rhapsoding ecstatic about his comments on evolution.

The worst thing about the #WarOnWomen meme is that it’s utterly laughable, causing real problems to be ignored.

When Pope Francis defends the family, don’t expect the MSM to report. Case in point: this is what he said today…

If you’re a toddler, don’t climb into the claw machine. You will risk becoming a “prize” for another family.

Amazon loses $170 million. Will make it back on black Friday.

Why Are Catholic Converts So Appealing? (and then he references the movie “Hook”–which I have not yet seen).

Where the faith of Russia has become an inspiration for Christians in the West. #LooksLikeTheFatimaConsecrationTook

I read this book last year. Think of it as the anti-Ziglar self-help book. Good stuff. #ScottAdams #Dilbert

Right now I’m holding my breath to see if the secular news outlets make this a worldwide headline. Pope Francis.

As Anne Baxter would say… “Oh, Mooooses, Mooooses….you barbaric schizophrenic fool…” #Moses #FacePalm
