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

'Alex's Lemonade' Charity Hit by Thieves

How sad is this one, kiddies?

Police in Haverford Township (Delaware County), Pa. are looking for thieves who stole money from the charitable organization "Alex’s Lemonade Stand."

Police say they have surveillance tape that appears to show four juveniles breaking into the foundation’s Ardmore office last weekend. They rummaged through the offices and stole a substantial amount of cash that was raised to fight cancer.

Liz Scott (left) says the break-in came just days before the second anniversary of her daughter’s death:

"The fact that they stole cash which was raised at lemonade stands to me was just beyond upsetting. It really was disturbing, and I felt like it was very disrespectful to the cause and to Alex.”

Alex Scott died of cancer at age 8, four years after she began the fundraising effort that bears her name (file photo above). As of May 2006, her national campaign has raised over $6 million for childhood cancer research.

Anyone with information on the robbery is asked to call Haverford police.

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.
