Catholic Bloggers! Contest Time!!!
First, I'll provide some background for this proposed contest.
Remember the post about Catholics In Allliance For The Common Good? Well, it turns out that Chris Korzen, formerly affiliated with CACG and current director of Catholics United, announced that the CU group is launching its own news organization. Catholic News Agency has the full story.
Notice that he would not reveal how it will be financed; wanna bet that Soros will be helping in that regard? He did say that one purpose of this organization will be "reporting on the activities of CNA and EWTN." Sheesh! Why bother with a whole new organization? Why not just put up a one-page site that has the URLs to both CNA and ETWN? I suppose they want to put their own special leftist flavor to it. Such is their First Amendment right. When asked about whether or not this organization will be used to elect Democrats in November, Korzen was rather cagey. So what? We already know the answer to that question now, don't we?
Of course, they'll have much news from the progressive catholycs to report, as things over in that sector are so vibrant, so relevant. Behold!
On second thought, maybe they had better just stick with the Democrat politicking and the snooping!
The news of this watchfulness, however, leaves me feeling, well, INSULTED!! Aren't we Catholic bloggers troublesome enough to Korzen that they aren't snooping on us, and "reporting on our actvities"? Golly-gee-whiz!!! Doesn't that just hurt my poor widdle feel-bads? Boo-hoo! Sniffle! Whine! Sob! Waah!
Now that I've dried my tears, it's time to do something about that dismal state of affairs - hence, the contest to which I alluded at the beginning of this post. Bloggers! Let's see who will be the first amongst us to cause angst and consternation with Korzen and cabal. We know how we can determine that now, don't we? I haven't figured out a prize yet, but we can work on that later. Have fun!

Catholics In Alliance For The Common Good - Defunct?
I sure hope so, and according to this Lifenews article, it seems that CACG simply outlived its usefulness in the eyes of its chief sugar-daddy, George Soros. Tom McClusky of Family Research Council opines that the main intention of CACG was to divide the Catholic vote to get Obama elected. After that happened, CACG defended Obama's appearance at Notre Dame in May 2009 and tried to go to bat for the CCHD after we shed much needed light on that corrupt cabal.
I've posted about CACG in the past. For review, here are the posts:

Various members of CACG have gone onto other mischief, as stated in the above links. We need to keep shedding the light on this corrupt network. To Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good, I say "goodbye and good riddance"!
Please note that there is a worthwhile organziation called Catholics for the Common Good. They are not to be confused with the aberrant and now-defunctd "Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good.

More "Respectable" Eco-Whackoism
Again, here is more evidence to make plain that James Lee's demented beliefs are all too common amongst those who adhere to "environmentalism", "animal rights", "eugenics" and the rest of the anti-human cabal.
Here is a piece from Center for Consumer Freedom showing how the Humane Society of the United States is not so "humane" after all. As you read this, note that one of the proponents of these nutty ideas is a subsidiary of Discovery Channel; did the "chickens come home to roost" last week?
Another so-called "respectable" adherent of the anti-human mindset is the European Union. They are considering a proposal to limit the usage of animals in medical research. A relevant portion of that proposal is, “Member States shall ensure that, wherever possible, a scientifically satisfactory method or testing strategy, not entailing the use of live animals, shall be used instead of a procedure.” And what might be such a "satisfactory method"? You guessed it! They would opt for the use of human embryos for said research. By the way - that's living human embryos! Joseph Mengele (the notorious Nazi doctor) would be so proud!

Yoo Hoo! Father Daly and Catholic Standard! Please Read - If You Dare!
This past Thursday I took issue with the breathtaking ignorance of Father Daly and the Catholic Standard regarding the Ground Zero mosque and Islam as a world view. Here I present more evidence, more food for thought for Father Daly, Cardinal McCarrick, the Standard and the rest of the "golly-gee-whiz-can't-we-all-just-get-along" head-in-the-clouds crowd. I hope they take it to heart, but won't be one bit surprised if they don't, seeing how they're beholden to their progressive puppet-masters with megabucks and political clout. Anyway, here goes.
We see here how this "religion of peace" is overtaking Paris. Note the arrogance of them as they literally take over the streets. There does seem to be some resistance underway, and I hope they're successful.
Now Jihad Watch is raising more questions about the funding of this mosque - and Andrew Cuomo's stonewalling of an investigation into such, despite a majority of New Yorker's wishes for such investigation. I'll now link to an article written by my colleague at the Orlando Truth giving some historical perspective about Islam - and a theory as to why the specific date of September 11 was chosen for the attacks.
The preceding is some "food for thought" - should the Standard et al dare to try a morsel!

Discovery Terrorist Espoused Mainline Environmentalist Mantras
James Jay Lee had a debate with American Life League activists during their "Protest the Pill" event at the 16th Street Planned Parenthood last year. The videos are posted on Jill Staneck's blog. Please read what she says, as the text and the first and third videos establish Lee's identity. It's the second one in which he espouses his warped world view.
That world view, be it ever so demented, is shared by many environmentalists: some highly placed, in positions of respectability. If you thought savetheplanetprotest was a whacky site to read, try this one - only it's not some thrown-together text on the web; it appears in Psychology Today. It's entitled "The Five Year Ban: Because A Billion Less People Is A Great Place To Start" by Steven Kotler. As the title implies, this man is calling for a 5-year moratorium on babies being born! Really, now? And just how does he think such a draconian farce of a law would be enforced? That would make Red China look benign in comparison!

Catholic Standard - Gross Naivete About Ground Zero Mosque
That is what Father Peter J. Daly, pastor of St John Vianney Parish in Prince Frederick MD, displayed in his article in the September 2nd issue of the Catholic Standard. Unfortunately (maybe deliberately??) that article is not on the Standard's website. It's on page 12 is entitled "The Mosque Controversy". The gist of the article is that Catholics who oppose this mosque should know better, since we were victims of persecution earlier in this country's history.

Protest of Patrick Kennedy Bill - I Protest The "Protest"!
Patrick Kennedy introduced a bill, HR5466 that, among other things, would ban faith-based groups from receiving federal funds if they use religion in their hiring practices. Over 100 groups are allegedly protesting this legislation, claiming that their religious freedoms are being violated. Naturally the USCCB is adding its voice to the clamor.
These so-called "faith-based" groups forget what charity is. Charity must be voluntary on the part of the donor; else, it is nothing more than slavery with a genteel veneer. Ladies and gentlemen, from where do these "federal funds" come? Our tax dollars! How many families see both parents working, and some working multiple jobs, to pay their various taxes? Is this moral? Is this "charity"? Is this how are "faith-based" groups are to be funded? It truly is a disgusting sight to behold, when otherwise Christian groups forget the commandment "thou shalt not steal" as they kick and claw for their "share of the pie", like greedy little piglets fighting for a federal teet.
Granted these groups need money. Well, here are some solutions.

Granted these groups need money. Well, here are some solutions.
- Immediately order the Catholic Campaign for Human Development to fund those charities that are directly involved in the Works of Mercy. CCHD should fund nothing else.
- Parish priests must remind the Catholic in the pew that it is his/her solemn organization to contribute time, talent and treasure towards these charities, as opposed to lobbying for more tax dollars to go towards them. Of course such preaching must take place within the context of preaching the entirety of Catholic truth.
- If any governmental lobbying is to be done, lobby for greater tax deductability of charitable contributions. For starters, allow contributions to be deducted before AGI is calculated, no matter the income level of the taxpayer (At present, contributions are deducted only if the taxpayer can itemize).
Hostage Standoff In Silver Spring MD Today
By now most people have heard of the drama that took place in Silver Spring MD today. I needn't repeat the details as they are on most of the major news outlets. I do urge one and all to pray for God's mercy on the soul of James Lee.
According to this Reuters article, Lee had been arrested at the Discovery Building before, as he protested about environmental issues. Apparently a website called http://savetheplanetprotest.com/ is registered in his name. It demanded that Discovery aim programming to urge people to stop having babies.
A quote from this webiste is "Civilization must be exposed for the filth it is. Saving the Planet means saving what's left of the non-human Wildlife by decreasing the Human population. That means stopping the human race from breeding any more disgusting human babies!" Read the whole site. It is chock-full of the Culture of Death. As you read it, think again of the "climate change" expose done by Real Catholic TV.
