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

Memorial Day is actually May 30...


...but it will be observed on Monday May 29th this year so we can have a long weekend. That seems more than a bit selfishto me, but I am an old fool.

Memorial Day is not about showing appreciation for the veterans around us. That should be done every other day of the year.

Memorial Day is supposed to be the day we honor our war dead, both those who died while in service to our country and those who died after their service ended.

My suggestion? Go to a cemetery and say a prayer for the soul of each man whose grave is marked by the Stars and Stripes.

About Me

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.
