It seems Pope Francis needs to brush up on his Tertullian!

It has been reported (in The ChristLast Media, I must note) that the current Pope does not like the phrase "lead us not into temptation...

"Let no freedom be allowed to novelty, because it is not fitting that any addition should be made to antiquity. Let not the clear faith and belief of our forefathers be fouled by any muddy admixture." -- Pope Sixtus III

Internet Auction Outrages Roberto Clemente's Family

The son of Pirates legend Roberto Clemente says he will take legal action against an Internet auction house that's selling pieces of the plane in which his father died.Roberto Clemente died in a plane crash in Puerto Rico on New Year's Eve 1972 while flying to Nicaragua to deliver relief supplies to earthquake survivors. His chartered plane crashed into the ocean just seconds after it left the ground.Though Clemente's body was never found, parts of the plane were recovered.Now, nearly 33 years later, Lelands.com is auctioning off pieces of the plane -- including one of its propellers and part of the metal airframe. Clemente's family is outraged. His son says he will not tolerate anyone trying to benefit from his father's death.

About Me

My photo
First of all, the word is SEX, not GENDER. If you are ever tempted to use the word GENDER, don't. The word is SEX! SEX! SEX! SEX! For example: "My sex is male." is correct. "My gender is male." means nothing. Look it up. What kind of sick neo-Puritan nonsense is this? Idiot left-fascists, get your blood-soaked paws off the English language. Hence I am choosing "male" under protest.
