I try not to think about the implications of someone who persists in thinking The Onion is a serious news outlet.

I eagerly await Bambi's correction of this. Or of my comment.

Report Reveals Jesus Christ May Have Benefited From Father’s Influential Position To Gain High-Powered Role As Lord And Savior

No kiddin'.

So, that would be "Jewish privilege"?

Archbishop José H. Gomez
 ·
The Church wants a Los Angeles where every human life is valued and welcomed. A Los Angeles where the poor and vulnerable, the elderly and sick, are protected. And we want a Los Angeles where everyone is working together to promote human dignity, strong families and human happiness.

----------

It does not have to be "dog eat dog" and it does not need to be the "jungle," we can be loving, and we can do what he Bible says and we can love our neighbors, and we can help the poor and the needy, and we can help the fatherless, etc.

Salute,

Tony V.

If your nativity scene lacks a caganer, then it is just really missing something!

Because God, the omniscient, cannot tell what the priest meant.

Or because God, the merciful, will refuse to recognize the baptisms that used the word "we" instead of "I" and therefore those people have souls at risk.

I just watched a video of Pastor Don at a local church, and he reminded everyone to live in the land of the living, and wait on God, and do not live in fear, and trust that if there are hard times that God will help us to rise above the hard times. We must not waste time living in fear, but instead we need to be waiting on God, and we need to be serving God.

Salute,
