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

Smokin' Joe Frazier comes out of retirement to pound a politician.

From KREG-TV in Memphis:

News Channel 3 has confirmed that Memphis Mayor Willie Herenton will be competing in a boxing match against former world heavyweight champion Joe Frazier.

Herenton's executive assistant Gail Jones-Carson confirmed the fight will be held at The Peabody Hotel in September. Carson says it will be a three round fight.

Carson also says the fight will benefit Herenton's alma mater LeMoyne-Owen College.

The predominantly black college has a month to raise more than a million dollars to keep its accreditation. Overall the college faces $6 million in debt and has been placed on probation in December, primarily because of financial problems.

Mayor Herenton's started boxing when he was only 11 years old. By the time Herenton graduated high school he had already won several AAU championships.

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.
