More people die annually in Massachusetts from from suicide than from automobile accidents, yet Physician Assisted Suicide (Massachusetts Initiative 11-12) will be on the ballot next November: The number of suicides in Massachusetts is 3x the number of murders. Elder Abuse has increased by 31% in the last three years "There is no contradicting the fact that since the largest medical expenses are incurred in the final days and weeks of life, the hastened demise of people with only a short time left would free resources for others" excerpted from Freedom to Die, by former Hemlock Society co-founder Derek Humphry and Mary Clement, Chap. 21 "The Unspoken Argument", p.333

New Years Reparation

2012-01-11T19:01:00.001-05:00

A link on New Advent led me to the Te Deum Laudamus blog, where Fr. Perrone lays out an excellent case for what I would call a New Years Reparation, or a Resolution where Catholics especially but all Christians offer up reparations for all the sins that so greatly offend God these days. One little extra reparation per week by all of us could do a lot to stem God's wrath. As Fr. explains:

I have never been a proponent of panic, of conspiracy, or of the immanent consummation of the world. The reasons for my reticence to advocate such positions are reasonableness and confidence in Divine Providence. It’s clear however that we, as a people, seem to be ever more capable of outdoing ourselves in wickedness. For those who delight in being at peace it’s not a good time to be living. There’s altogether too much to cause us to be disturbed. The agitation of the world is threatening to invade the serenity of our souls. Being deeply grounded in faith and hope, with a solid spiritual regimen of life, is the way to counteract these unsettling menaces to our Christian life.

There is a proposal I would like to make to you this new year. Being your pastor, your spiritual guide, I should protect you, teach you and give you goods for your souls. I therefore would like you to take on a practice this new year as a means of imploring God’s blessing on our parish and on you, my parishioners. It is this: that everyone elect to do one act of penance every week during the year 2012–an act in addition to any penitential acts which may already be one’s practice or which the season (viz., Lent) may dictate.

Physician Assisted Suicide (Massachusetts Initiative 11-12) will be on the ballot next November: This is a bill designed to protect physicians, not patients because every patient already has the right to take their own life. Have you ever heard of anyone thrown in jail, anyone fined, for attempting suicide anywhere in the U.S.? It's also designed to help insurance companies save money, because paying once for an assisted suicide is cheaper than any treatment. "[T]he pressures of cost containment provide impetus, whether openly acknowledged or not, for the practicalities of an assisted death." excerpted from Freedom to Die, by former Hemlock Society co-founder Derek Humphry and Mary Clement, Chap. 21 "The Unspoken Argument", p.313

Happy New Year

Physician Assisted Suicide (Initiative 11-12) will be on the ballot next November, so I will be including several points to be made in the debate that leads up to the vote:
Imagine there is medical help to save your life, but your health insurance plan denied authorization for it and offered you assisted suicide instead. Imagine that the Hemlock Society (aka Compassion & Choices) then presented this 'fact' as proof that no patient chose physician assisted suicide as the result of a lack of health insurance (lack of compassion obviously does not count). I guess you'd feel like 64-year-old retired school bus driver Barbara Wagner, who found out in May, 2008 that her cancer, which had been in remission for two years, had returned. Her doctor prescribed medicine to slow the cancer growth and extend her life. Then she wsa notified by her health insurer, The Oregon Health Plan, that although it would not cover her prescription, it would cover assisted suicide.

Remember that the Massachusetts Physician Assisted Suicide law is based on Oregon's

I stole a book

2011-12-20T07:10:00.001-05:00

I have now stolen a book from the Eucharistic Chapel at St. George's, titled Rabbi Jesus by Bruce Chilton. I originally borrowed this book to review it, but having arrived at certain conclusions about this book, I made up my mind to steal it. I can't return it to the Chapel.

Chilton assumes a false air of Orthodoxy when he appears to attack those Modernists who doubt everything about the historical narrative concerning the birth of Jesus, stating that "modern scholarship has left the circumstances of Jesus' birth in a haze of doubt...[with] many scholars hav[ing] ruled Bethleham as Jesus' birthplace." I say false air of Orthodoxy because Chilton's next sentence, p.8, is "Recent discoveries show that is a mistake." However Chilton does not make the claim that the historical narrative is correct, he feebly and with a lack of originality joins the attack on the historical narrative.

Chilton's attack on the historical narrative concerning the birth of Jesus is based on the fact that there is a very small town in Galilee named Bethlehem, seven miles Northwest of Nazareth, and mentioned in Joshua 19:15, known as Bethlehem of Galilee so as not to be confused with its well known neighbor to the south, Bethlehem of Judea, 5 miles south of Jerusalem, north of the land of Moab (see the Book of Ruth), and celebrated as the birthplace of Jesus Christ since the time of Jesus Christ. The sepulchre of Rachael is about 1 mile north of Bethlehem of Judea, and is still visited by Islamic, Christian and Jewish pilgrims. 'Our Bethlehem' is attested to as the birthplace of Jesus by St. Matthew, who knew the messiah would come from the Davidic line and be born there, and also by Luke, a gentile, who quite possibly was unaware of the prophesy of Micheas. This mini-debate about which Bethlehem Jesus was born in was "unknown to the ancient writers, who reproduce simply the Gospel narratives with additions, in some cases possibly historical. About 150 we find St. Justin Martyr referring (Dialogue with Trypho 78) to the Savior's birth as having taken place in a cave near the village of Bethlehem; such cave stables are not rare in Palestine. Expository Times, May, 1903, 384; Bonaccorsi, "Il Natale", Rome, 1903, 16-20.)" - Catholic Encyclopedia. Origen wrote about a century later: "In Bethlehem the cave is pointed out where He was born, and the manger in the cave where He was wrapped in swaddling clothes, and the rumor is in those places and among foreigners of theFaith that indeed Jesus was born in this cave". (Against Celsus I.51) The apocryphal gospels (Pseudo-Matt., xiii, ap. Bonaccorsi, op. cit., 159-163; Protevang. of James, xvii sqq., Bonaccorsi, 155-159; Gospel of the Infancy, II-IV, Bonaccorsi, 163-164) concur. "Over the traditional spot of the Nativity stands a church (St. Mary of the Nativity), surrounded on the northwest and southwest by the convents of the Latins (Franciscans), Greeks, and Armenians, respectively. The building is, apart from additions and modifications made by Justinian (527-565), substantially the work of Constantine (about 330). Underneath that most ancient and venerable monument of Christianity, a favorite resort of pilgrims throughout the centuries, is the grotto of the Nativity."

So why does Chilton dredge up an old ruse about Bethlehem of Galilee as the birthplace of Jesus, instead of 'Our Bethlehem'? (Chilton fails to credit his source, Adolph Neubauer, in this book). He is "attacking the historical value of the Gospel narratives...; this is done by almost all those who deny the historicity of the Infancy."

When I started to read what can only be called blasphemies against the Blessed Virgin and St. Joseph, I realized why Chilton made a big deal about a small detail - it was the only historical piece of his entire argument.

I think I will offer to pay the cover price to anyone willing to admit they slipped this arrogant replay of the Original Sin into the Chapel, but I'm not putting it back there.

Newman knew
"Who can understand his errors? Cleanse Thou me from secret faults." Psalm xix. 12.
- STRANGE as it may seem, multitudes called Christians go through life with no effort to obtain a correct knowledge of themselves. They are contented with general and vague impressions concerning their real state; and, if they have more than this, it is merely such accidental information about themselves as the events of life force upon them. But exact systematic knowledge they have none, and do not aim at it... sermon from Cardinal Newman

My cousin's son, Chris Sparadeo, is fundraising to work with the Nicaraguan based NGO, blueEnergy. A registered 501(c)3, blueEnergy is currently focused on the East Coast of Nicaragua, where roughly 75% of the population has neither access to electricity nor life-sustaining clean water and sanitation. Chris will primarily work on establishing sustainable latrines, photovoltaic solar systems, water filters, efficient stoves and environmental education. He needs to raise $7,200 for air fare, room, fees board and health insurance for the 12 months he'll live & work in Nicaragua. About 50% of the funds raised will be directly donated to charitable efforts in Nicaragua, which means half of your donation amount is tax deductible on your Fed. taxes (form #8283). If you are in a position to contribute please make a check to “blueEnergy memo: Chris Sparadeo” and send your donation to:

“'The Church as a whole and all her Pastors, like Christ, must set out to lead people out of the desert, towards the place of life, towards friendship with the Son of God, towards the One who gives us life, and life in abundance.'” It often happens that Christians are more concerned for the social, cultural and political consequences of their commitment, continuing to think of the faith as a self-evident presupposition for life in society. In reality, not only can this presupposition no longer be taken for granted, but it is often openly denied.

Occupy Springfield expose their anti-Christian bias by attacking Christian minister Scott Lively. Occupy Springfield has publicly stated that one of their goals is to drive Pastor Lively and his Christian mission out of town. Dr. Lively, a Springfield native, established Redemption Gate Mission Society a few years ago and set up the Holy Grounds Coffee House in inner-city Springfield to bring Christian faith to the downtown area. The coffee house has gained great popularity in the neighborhood as a spiritual oasis in an often dangerous area. But this time the Christians stood up to this intimidation.

What's wrong with this picture: Faithful Catholic Dan Avila writes an article on same-sex attraction for the Boston Pilot, asserting that the Evil One plays a role homosexuality. Five days later Avila retracts, apologizes, and is either fired or resigns from his new job with the USCCB. The offending paragraph "...the ultimate responsibility [for same-sex attraction], on a theological level, is and should be imputed to the evil one, not God. Applying this aspect of Catholic belief to interpret the scientific data makes more sense because it does not place God in the awkward position of blessing two mutually incompatible realities -- sexual difference and same-sex attraction."
The Pilot did not state what Avila's "theological error" was. Many think it was a political error.

A few weeks ago a man named Anand Grover, who holds the the ponderous title "Special Rappoteur for Health" at the United Nations, issued a report to the UN that says a right to abortion already exists in international law. You say you have never heard of this character? Why should you? He is a bureaucrat at the UN. This means he is charged by the UN with marauding all over the world putting pressure on governments to do things like make baby-killing legal.
Please pause for a second and ponder three truths.
First, what happens at the UN often happens in secret, that is, far from the eyes of every day people from around the world. Nonetheless, these happenings affect everyone in the world.
Second, the actors in these pro-abortion dramas are totally unknown to even senior policy makers in government. I would guess that the typical senior adviser in the UN State Department, the Canadian Foreign Ministry or other seats of foreign policy, have never ever ever heard of this fellow Anand Grover.
Third, you know about him and his report and the meeting this week because of the Friday Fax and for NO OTHER REASON. http://www.c-fam.org/

What the mainstream media reports tell you about the "Occupy Boston" protests is, as usual, only part of the story. MassResistance went down last week and found out the rest. We saw a political ideology of communism, socialism and anarchism, with additions of anti-Israel, pro-Muslim, law-breaking, and other radical advocacy. Plus, like so many left-wing venues after a few days, the park they've taken over is now filthy and smells of urine.
That politicians support this is a Frightening - and illegal- double standard by government.

Jay G.
Prayer Needs;

Are you concerned about the leftward drift of the Massachusetts Republican Party? Do the Party’s pro-homosexual and pro-abortion positions bother you? If you’re willing to put in a little time, you can personally help turn things around.

There is a movement to attract good conservatives to run for the Massachusetts Republican State Committee in the upcoming elections. The State Committee is the “board of directors” that controls the Massachusetts Republican Party, makes its policy, and selects the Party Chairman.

Each of the state’s 40 State Senate Districts elects a man and a woman for the Republican State Committee. Thus, there are 80 State Committee Members: 40 men and 40 women.

To be blunt, the problem is that a majority of the State Committee members are RINOS. That’s why we’ve been in the mess we’re in. However, in the upcoming elections there are several members leaving, and several who are weak and could be beaten by the right candidate. That’s why we are asking YOU to consider running this year.

The duties are relatively easy. You go to a meeting once every month or so, and probably serve on a committee. But it’s the votes at the meetings that count. That’s why we need good people. If people like YOU are willing to run and make a difference, things could be turned around!

Unfortunately October is GLBT (Gay Lesbian Bisexual & Transgender) history month with Oct 11 as National Coming Out Day (NCOD), so parents and grandparents need to be extra vigilant about what their childrens' schools promote in terms of anti-family activities. Schools are required by law to notify parent's of these types of school sponsored activities, but often skirt the lay so MA Family Institute has a reporting web page to help control this anti-family harassment.

Tom McFeely reports on how the Canadian government has given millions of dollars to Planned Parenthood and the UN Population Fund in support of a new initiative on maternal health. The Harper government was heroic in standing down the Obama administration on abortion during the last G8 conference. Looks like they caved in a little bit. The good folks at Mater Care International, a group of Canadian doctored who labor in Africa, received not a dime.

Good News:
Rep. Cliff Stearns, a Florida Republican, has decided that it's time to investigate abortion giant Planned Parenthood, [previously] announc[ing] that his committee has sent a letter to Planned Parenthood, demanding records on how the organization spends the $363 million it receives from American taxpayers. Rep. Stearns also demanded documentation to determine if Planned Parenthood was properly following federal guidelines on the mandatory reporting of underage sexual abuse.

I feel kind of bad for the women of the Worcester Diocese. The men have been having dynamic, powerful and orthodox speakers for over a decade at our conference. The women not so much.

What exactly is a “strong commitment to earth issues” and why is that a criteria for a speaker at a Catholic conference. I suppose a strong commitment is better than an average or even a weak commitment, but still? Then again maybe I'm just not sure what “saving and healing planet Earth” has to do with saving, and healing, souls.

Better luck to my Catholic sisters next year.

Sincerely,

Sign Up Now for prayer slots.
Former Planned Parenthood clinic director, now Pro-Life Abby Johnson "identified 40 Days for Life as the SINGLE MOST EFFECTIVE pro-life activity that YOU can participate in locally to change hearts and minds about abortion. WOW!" Help to cover the vigil site (Planned Parenthood, 472 Pleasant St, Worcester) from 7AM –7PM for each of the 40 days. From the Newsletter: Just the other day, we were watching the old TV show “I Love Lucy,” specifically the episode “Lucy Goes to the Hospital.” You might remember it. Lucy is pregnant and has started to go into labor. Like many fathers, Ricky is very anxious. To help calm him, Lucy invites Ethel and Fred upstairs; but then she is surrounded by three anxious people. She goes to lie down. At this point, Ricky, Ethel, and Fred begin to rehearse their roles for when it’s time for Lucy to go to the hospital. Their rehearsal begins with Ricky, pretending he is Lucy, saying very dramatically, “The time has come.” Well, the time has come for our fall campaign. Each of us has a role, and this Wednesday we will join thousands of others in 301 locations in 48 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Canada, England, Spain, Germany, Australia, and Argentina to begin 40 days of prayer, fasting, and peaceful public vigil for an end to abortion. Our prayers will be for women who are contemplating abortion, for the conversion of those involved in the abortion industry, and for healing for the many who are hurting after abortion.

Sep 20 Tue 10 AM Sex Education Hearing, State House in Boston Room A-2, H 155 is a carefully worded bill (written by Ray Neary) designed to change the Current Opt-Out policy of the innocence-corrupting anti-family Sex Ed classes inpublic schools to Opt-In. Specifically H 155 calls for the need for school curriculum transparency, prior review privileges and questioning of all involved, the need for written permission of parent/guardian, and a conscience clause without retribution. This Bill is in response to the radical Planned Parenthood Health Curriculum Frameworks (HB 179, 1063 & 1085 and SB 184 & 259) which forces all public school kids to be indoctrinated with their promiscuity policies through the trojan horse of comprehensive sex-ed. Steve DiNatalie, and sadly alleged Pro-Lifer John Fresolo have sponsored this attack on parental rights. Come testify in defense of H 155 to allow Opt-Out.

It's hard to wake up to over 32,000 hits from teenaged atheists who are full of hate, including death threats to Stacy and her young family.

ARCHBISHOP DOLAN LIBELED BY SNAP
Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on the reaction of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP) to the news that an elderly New York priest was arrested for a sexual infraction:
A 16-year-old girl started working in a Bronx parish last Saturday and now claims she was inappropriately touched by an 87-year-old priest. She returned to work on Monday, where she now says she was touched the wrong way again. Then she voluntarily decided to go back to work on Tuesday, where she now claims she was wrongly touched for the third time. On Wednesday, the cops show up, with TV cameras rolling, and handcuff the elderly priest—who has never had a single allegation made against him in over 60 years as a priest—treating him as if he were Jack the Ripper.
If this isn't surreal enough, consider that the phony victims' group, SNAP, is accusing New York Archbishop Timothy Dolan of covering up the alleged misconduct, even though Dolan knew nothing about it. Moreover, when Dolan learned of the arrest, he immediately informed the cleric that he cannot function as a priest and must leave the parish until the matter is settled. So to accuse the New York Archbishop of a cover-up is obscene.
SNAP also says that Archbishop Dolan was guilty of "acting secretively" in a previous case involving Msgr. Wallace Harris. This is libelous: Dolan was the Archbishop of Milwaukee when Harris was suspended. When Cardinal Edward Egan, Dolan's predecessor, learned of the alleged misconduct by Harris—which supposedly happened 30 years earlier—he notified the D.A.'s office.
According to SNAP's press release today, these cases also show the Church's tolerance of pedophilia. But neither of the two cases involved pedophilia: in both instances, the alleged victims were teenagers. The name of the game is to paint priests as child abusers, which is a bold-face lie. It's time the media turned its cameras on the liars at SNAP.

57,000 Young People Protest Message at UN Conference on Youth Statement
Young Voices Speak the Truth about Human Life to United Nations
By Lauren Funk

NEW YORK, July 28 (C-FAM) The enthusiastic voices of pro-life youth from around the world dominated the events of this week’s High Level Meeting on Youth at the United Nations, drawing the attention of UN bureaucrats and delegates alike.

“I keep running into all these pro-lifers, they're everywhere...in fact most of the people I've interviewed are pro-life,” a young woman working for UNFPA told a member of the International Youth Coalition as she interviewed conference attendees.

“We [members of the International Youth Coalition] were half, if not more, of the young people actually at the conference,” a participant from the International Youth Coalition told the Friday Fax. “And any people who spoke against us [and our message about human life] were adults, not youth.”

On Archbishop Chaput being selected to run Philly:
Rocco Palma "He is brash, outspoken and fearless -- energetic, colorful, cultured...indeed, even hard-core....he stands set to bring the most revolutionary change American Catholicism’s most traditional major outpost has known in at least a century, to begin its rebuilding from the ashes of the darkest hour in its long, storied history..."
National Review: "[Pope] John Paul insisted that the Church doesn’t have a mission, as if “mission” were one among a dozen things the Catholic Church does. No, John Paul taught, the Church is a mission, such that everything and everyone in the Church ought to be measured by what the management types would call mission-effectiveness.
The old warhorses of the post–Vatican II debates, on either end of the Catholic spectrum, don’t get this; they’re still mud-wrestling within the old paradigm. But Archbishop Charles Chaput gets it, big time."

Nov 4-5 Fr. Apostoli comes to RI

A blonde blue-eyed Aryan Scandinavian, Anders Behring Breivik, kills dozens of other blonde blue-eyed Aryan Scandinavians, yet the media claims it's because of Islamophobia.
Breivik "redefines" Christian, and the media believe him so they can label him a Christian Terrorist: “If you have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and God then you are a religious Christian. Myself and many more like me do not necessarily have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and God. We do however believe in Christianity as a cultural, social, identity and moral platform. This makes us Christian.”

Breivik is the mirror product of an increasingly rising tension in the world today. Under the seemingly placid exterior of Western Europe, the old devils lurk.

What you won't hear from the media about this mass murder of kids at a "political" camp: "Utoya Island Meeting was an anti-Israel rally. Check out the "Boycott Israel" sign...The main activity at the Utoya Island Meeting were mock "Break the Israel blockade" games. One event was Palestinian aide boats would try to break the Israel blockage. Whoever gets through first wins."

Ruth Pakaluk debating "Human Rights & Abortion" at Boston College

2011-07-22T18:29:00.003-04:00

Ruth Pakaluk opening statement in the Abortion and Human Rights debate held at Boston College in January 1995.

The title of tonight’s debate is ‘Abortion and Human Rights’. I’m going to give my presentation is 3 sections. The first section will be simply an overview of how abortion is actually practiced in the United States, because that is in fact the subject of this debate. The second section will be a discussion of Human Rights - what that phrase means. The third section will be to consider abortion in the light of the concept of Human Rights.

First, what is the practice of abortion in the United States? Is it something that is uncommon, and women resort to only in extreme circumstances or has it become commonplace, everyday.

There are 1.6 Million abortions performed each year in the US, abortions have been taking place at about that level for about 22 years which means there are a total of about 35 Million abortions since the Supreme Court legalized abortion on demand. It’s difficult to translate 35 Million abortions into human terms, one way to visualize that is to consider in Massachusetts the abortion rate is 1 out of every 3 pregnancies, so for every three woman who become pregnant, 1 will choose abortion. Since that has been the rate for about the past two decades it means that for every age group, from newborn right up to college sophomores, for each two individuals you see, there was a third individual conceived about the same time but who was aborted.

At what stage in pregnancy are abortions performed? Abortion advocates often focus on a single cell, the fertilized egg. How can we think of a single cell as a human person with rights? And I agree that’s an extremely difficult concept but it has nothing to do with the abortion debate since there is no such thing as the abortion of a single cell. The earliest stage at which an abortion of a pregnancy can be performed is about the fifth week after conception, and if you look at them, each colored brochure that was handed out you can see that even at that stage, the earliest at which abortions are performed, we’re already talking about something of a recognizable human anatomy: head, torso, arms, legs.

The vast majority of abortions are performed between the 7th and 14th weeks. In Massachusetts the median gestational age at which abortions are performed is the ninth week – that means that half of all abortions that are done in this state are after the ninth week. And if you look at this brochure, and what we’re going to see is that most reasonable people are going to agree that what this thing looks like at that stage is a miniature human infant.

Nevertheless when a woman goes into an abortion facility, she is not told that what is in her uterus has a recognizable human appearance. She is not told that her unborn child already has a heartbeat which in most cases would be detectable if you simply placed an electronic stethoscope on her abdomen she would be able to hear her own unborn child’s heartbeat.

Many Americans remain persuaded that abortion is only legal in the first trimester. You don’t have to look very far to find out that that is not true. [holds up Yellow Page] This is a yellow pages from the Boston Phone book, two pages of ads for abortion. The Planned Parenthood ad advertizes abortion up to 18 weeks.

[Lifts up pre-born baby model] This is a life size model of what a developing human looks like, 18 week after conception. This is a free standing abortion facility, not a hospital. You don’t have to give any medical reason, this is just what would be - a woman wants an abortion, a child of this gestational age would simply be destroyed by abortion.

Pre-Term, which is a much larger abortion facility, advertizes abortion up to 22 weeks, what would be a full month further into pregnancy than this [holds 18 week pre-born model up again]. I that that most reasonable people would agree that to call this a cluster of cells, pregnancy tissue or a product of conception – which is routinely the kind of language that is used to describe what is going to be removed from the woman’s uterus – I think most of us can agree that to call this a cluster of cells is not completely descriptive or completely accurate.

Finally one of the reasons, one of the problems that drive so many woman to choose abortion. Abortion advocates frequently speak of victims of rape and incest - but how many of the 1.6 Million abortions each year are actually done because a woman was a victim of rape or incest? Or the other hard case scenarios, her child is diagnosed to be handicapped, or she herself has a serious health problem that is aggravated by pregnancy.

I have here a photocopy of an article that was published in Family Planning Perspectives, which is the research journal of the Guttmacher Institute, which is the research arm of Planned Parenthood. This is a very accurate survey administered to women nationwide, asking them ‘why are you having this abortion?’ I am going to read to you the top 6 ranked reasons the women themselves gave as being the most important reason I am having this abortion, and if you add up these six you account for about 93% of all the abortions done in the United States.
1.“I can’t afford a baby now”
2.“I’m not ready for the responsibility”
3.“I have problems with this relationship”
4.“I want to avoid single parenthood”
5.“I’m not mature enough to have a child”
6.“I already have as many children as I want”

Now, what I think is interesting about these reasons is that these are what we would call socio-economic reasons. These are problems, I will not say that these are not problems, they could be very burdensome serious situations, nevertheless all these problems lend themselves to some solution other than destroying the life of that developing human.

According to this survey if you add up all of the women who are having abortions because they are the victims of rape or incest, because the child was diagnosed as having some handicap, or because she was told by a doctor, a physician that she had a health problem that would be aggravated by remaining pregnant, those abortions account for less than 3% of the 1.6 million abortions performed each year.

Now, Human Rights. Most Americans claim to believe in Human Rights. But what does someone mean, when they use that phrase, ‘Human Rights.” There are many rights: legal rights, legal rights are arrived at when a Legislature debates something, then votes and majority wins, and then passes a law. Legal Rights are changeable, things like the age at which you can drive, the age at which you can drink alcohol, the age at which you can vote. There are Constitutional Rights, these are the rights which our government at its founding has specified that these had to be respected by our government. When we use the phrase “Human Rights’ we mean something more fundamental, than legislative or constitutional rights, we mean something that is prior to any government, any society, any person’s opinion. A Human Right is something that arises merely because you are human, not because you are human and strong, human and wealthy, human and powerful, pleasant, attractive, interesting. No, a human right is a freedom, a liberty you posses merely because you are human. Period.

Now this concept requires that every living human must possess human rights, and a corollary of that would be there cannot be any living individual human who does not possess human rights. If you could find any living human who does not have human rights, you would have proven that human rights in fact do not exist.

Now what does this have to do with abortion? Let me be perfectly clear, we have to ask two questions, they are really quite simple questions, they are not difficult, they are not ambiguous, they are not religious questions, they are not even philosophical questions, they are just factual questions. Consider the thing in the womb of a pregnant woman and ask:
1.Is it living?
Now whenever you take a course in biology you find a preface of the biology text book will usually have a general discussion of what biology is, the study of living things, and there will be some checklist of characteristics of living things, after all a biologist is not going to study minerals or chemicals, or asteroids, galaxies. A biologist will study living things, [inaudible] of whether or not the thing you are studying under a microscope is living or not, inanimate matter. What are the characteristics of all living things? And all things that have these characteristics are living things: they take in nourishment, they grow, and they will show differentiation of function coordinated under a unified whole. Like functions of respiration, ingesting nutrients, excreting wastes. Even a one celled animal has all these different functions going on, but they are coordinated under a unified whole.

Every rational, educated person must acknowledge that the thing in the womb of the pregnant woman is a living thing. It is some kind of living organism. It is not inanimate matter.
The second question is similarly simple and straightforward, and factual. You ask the question:
2.What species does this living thing belong to?
There is no such thing as a living organism that belongs to no species, and there is no such thing as a living organism that starts out as one species and becomes another. That does not exist. Again, every rational, educated person must acknowledge that that living animal in the womb of the pregnant woman belongs to the species of homo sapiens, just like all of us in this room.
It is an individual living member of the human race.
It is not a part of the woman’s body. It is in her body, but it is not a part of her body any more than if she were to swallow a live goldfish in some sort of crazy sorority initiation – that goldfish would be in her body, it would not be part of her body.

If Human Rights truly exist – we don’t just use those words to sound pretty, to dress up an argument – If Human Rights truly exist then that living human in the womb must possess them. And if you think that abortion is acceptable, you do not believe that human rights exist.

Now that’s a pretty analytic approach to this question, but I would like to present you with something that’s a little more pointed. Most abortion advocates are perfectly well aware that a fetus is living and a fetus is human. They don’t focus on this in their public rhetoric, but when pushed they are rational and they are educated people and they know the laws of biology and zoology. But I would like to read a particularly striking example, I could read you many, many examples, I collect these examples, but I don’t have time so I’ll read to you the most revealing. It comes from this book [holds up book], In Necessity and Sorrow – Life and Death in an Abortion Hospital, written by this woman [turns to back of book] Monica Dennis, she was Pro-Choice when she wrote the book, she’s still Pro-Choice. She spent three months in an abortion facility, observing and interviewing, and this is what we see in this collection of her observations and interviews.

I will read to you her eyewitness account of an abortion, which took place 15 weeks after conception, if you look at the brochure you can see on the back panel there’s a photograph of a child spontaneously miscarried at 14 weeks after conception so this is roughly the gestational age we are talking about. So you will understand what is going on I will tell you that the person doing the abortion is named Dr. Holtzman. The nurse who was assisting was Mr. Smith, and the woman having the abortion is under general anesthesia, so she is unconscious, that’s why they are talking as if she’s not there because she cannot hear them.

Dr. Holtzman pulls out something which he slaps on the table. “There it is” he says, “a leg.” I turn to Mr. Smith, “What did he say?”
“He pulled a leg off”, Mr. Smith says. “Right here.”
He points to the instrument table, where there is a perfectly formed, slightly bent leg, about 3 inches long. It consists of a ripped thigh, a knee, a lower leg, a foot and five toes.
“I have the rib cage now” Holtzman says as he slaps down another piece of the fetus. “There, I got the head out now.”
I look at the instrument table where next to the leg, and next to the mess he calls the rib cage but which I cannot recognize, there lies a head. It is the smallest human head I have ever seen. But it is unmistakably part of a human person.

That’s what it is to be Pro-Choice. It is to believe that under some circumstances, some human beings may choose to kill other human beings.

Congressional Reform Act of 2011

2011-07-21T22:28:00.000-04:00

The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government - lest it come to dominate our lives and interests.
- Patrick Henry -

The 26th amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds) took only 3 months & 8 days to be ratified! Why? Simple! The people demanded it. That was in 1971 ...before computers, before e-mail, before cell phones, etc.

Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took 1 year or less to become the law of the land...all because of public pressure.

I'm asking each addressee to forward this email to a minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of those to do likewise.

In three days, most people in The United States of America will have the message. This is one idea that really should be passed around.

Congressional Reform Act of 2011

1. No Tenure / No Pension. A Congressman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they are out of office.

2. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security. All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.

3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.

4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.

5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.

6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.

7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen are void effective 1/1/12. The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen. Congressmen made all these contracts for themselves. Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home and back to work.

If each person contacts a minimum of twenty people then it will only take three days for most people (in the U.S. ) to receive the message. Maybe it is time.

THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!!!!!

True

2011-07-10T22:25:00.001-04:00

True Love requires Truth, Love does not exist in a lie, Love does not exist in falsehood. Loving pastoral care of Christians by our shepherds demands truth. As Fr. Roger J. Landry writes, We in the Church are served best by "her priests [that] lovingly and courageously care for people with the fullness of the Gospel." We likewise are dis-served when "ministers and ministries — perhaps out of too much fear to give offense, a lack of faith in the teachings of the Church, or a faint-hearted notion of what true love demands — will dilute the Gospel of its saving power by stripping it of the uncomfortable and countercultural teachings that some listeners most need."

Marriage Updates

2011-07-02T22:22:00.001-04:00

Jul 4 Mon 6PM Pray the Rosary for America

Last week Democrats in New York passed Same-Sex Marriage with the help of Republicans. Maggie Gallagher writing in the WSJ summed it up Republicans helping a Democratic Governor appease his Democratic base while alienating a large portion of the Republican Base. National Organization for Marriage (NOM) founding Chairman Prof. Robert George and co-writer of the Manhattan Declaration said in a recent interview in the National Review, "It is worth noting that what has happened in New York will have at least one significant good effect for the pro-marriage cause. It will re-nationalize the marriage issue and propel it into the 2012 presidential primaries and general election."
Obviously these Defenders of Traditional Marriage could use your financial Support

Part of this attack on Holy Matrimony was driven by homosexual activist Kevin Jennings, who up until last week controlled a $410Million Budget in the Dept. of Education, that is until http://www.massresistance.org/ exposed him for the deviant he is. Thanks Massresistance!

The nation's largest pro-homosexual activist group, Human Rights Campaign (HRC), credited Home Depot for helping it pass gay marriage in New York State last week. Please remember to boycott Home Depot.

Corporate Persecution - Cisco fired employee Frank Turek because he believed that Marriage was between 1 man and 1 woman. He never mentioned this at work, but a homosexual manager found out he was a conservative and within a hour HR fired him for his beliefs.

And while we're at it, that Study saying 70% of Active Duty Military believe homosexuals should be allowed to server openly in the Military - Made up. Fake. "Pre-Scripted."

Old Navy is "making a fashion statement in support of all [their] LGBT fans! Show your support with one of our colorful Gay Pride 2011 tees, available in 26 select Old Navy stores. 10% of all sales will go to the It Gets Better Project." This is from FaceBook. Consider boycotting Old Navy please. Also please continue to Boycott Pepsi, because it has contracted with a company that uses fetal cells from babies victimized by abortions to test and produce artificial flavor enhancers. Debi Vinnedge, of the pro-life group, explained, “What they don’t tell the public is that they are using HEK 293 – human embryonic kidney cells taken from an electively aborted baby to produce those receptors. They could have easily chosen animal, insect, or other morally obtained human cells expressing the G protein for taste receptors.”

The Rest of the Story

2011-05-19T23:11:00.001-04:00

MCFL in Fitchburg hosted a Fetal Development health booth at the Leominster High School Health Fair on April 12. One of the busiest booths at the fair, both male and female Students expressed tremendous interest. Maria Cristina Fernandez was in charge of the booth while Jack and Linda Kinsey assisted. The booth had both the soft fetal models (12 weeks, 20 weeks, 26 weeks and 30 weeks) and the anatomical models of the unborn baby in a cross section of the mother’s body. They passed out all 200 little feet pins (plus Linda, Jack, and Maria gave away their own pins) and 100’s of pieces of English and Spanish literature. Special Thanks to Rose Giammalvo enrolling the Fetal Development booth at the Health Fair. As could be expected, the usual abortion industry suspects have been involved in these health fair, but now the kids can get the rest of the story.

Pro-Life Pledge

2011-05-16T23:02:00.000-04:00

We need to go back to basic principles to prevent painful splits such as in the campaign of Massachusetts Senator Scott Brown. His positions are sometimes pro-life and sometimes pro-abortion, yet he was called "pro-life" and endorsed by some pro-life groups.

Even those who disagree about politicians like Scott Brown can agree on the "back-to-basics" proposal below.

As a pro-life person, your good reputation will set an example for others to unify our movement.

Will you sign on to the Life Pledge below? Will you agree to let us list your name on LifePledge.org Web site?

It's as easy as A B C:
A. Read the reform proposal below.
B. If you agree, fill in the blanks below and reply to us at ccmazz@aol.com
C. Forward this email to other pro-lifers that you know.

Thank you!

Yes, I agree with this back-to-basics pro-life proposal. Please show my support by listing my name on LifePledge.com like this:

Name_________________________ Group (if any)_____________________ Title (if any)_________________

+ + + + + + + + +
The Life Pledge

I pledge to uphold and act on this pro-life reform proposal:

Three Foundational Principles That Unite Pro-life People and Groups
1. A human being comes into existence at fertilization, as the DNA evidence shows.
2. Every human has the unalienable right to life from fertilization to natural death.
3. The unalienable right to life of every innocent human being must be equally protected by law, whether the person is born or unborn, healthy or sick, or facing disabilities.

Issues That Spring From the Three Pro-life Principles
Violating the three principles raises many issues, such as:
Beginning of Life: abortion, reproductive technologies, genetic engineering, amniocentesis, contraception, abortifacients, post-abortion effects, traditional marriage as a protection for new life, eugenics;
End of Life: eugenics, medical rationing, euthanasia, assisted suicide;
as well as the appointment of judges who are pro-life on these issues.
Solutions for these issues include political, charitable, educational and spiritual activities. Pro-life individuals and groups focus on their own issues with their own solutions as they see fit. If we keep our three shared principles in mind and communicate respectfully, then our different activities will intermesh to protect vulnerable human lives more than we could separately.

Goals and Methods for Pro-life Activities

1. The common goal and mission of pro-life people and groups is to protect vulnerable lives. One necessary method is to promote and act on the three pro-life principles. 2. Within the pro-life movement we have many different estimates of how to reach our common goal, and we aspire to resolving our differences by respectful discussion.

Strategies for State and Federal Pro-life PACs

1. PACs will endorse political candidates ONLY if they publicly pledge to uphold all three principles above.

2. PACs will describe political candidates as pro-life ONLY if they publicly pledge to uphold all three principles above.

3. PACs will participate in elections by publicizing the positions of all candidates, major and minor, as they relate to these pro-life principles and issues.
4. All questionnaires for candidates will include Yes-or-No questions on these three principles. PACs will show the sources from which they learned a candidate's position on issues, such as voting records, official position statements and other public statements. The goal is full disclosure so that voters can decide for themselves which candidate to support. Using partial disclosure to make a chosen candidate look more pro-life is disrespectful of pro-life voters.

Long-term strategies for PACs
1. PACs will continually reach out to make contact with potential new pro-life candidates who are willing to take this pledge.
2. PACs will develop, advance and assist pro-life candidates to get elected.

The Hell there is.

2011-05-04T22:33:00.000-04:00

"I, Sister Faustina Kowalska, by the order of God, have visited the Abysses of Hell so that I might tell souls about it and testify to its existence...the devils were full of hatred for me, but they had to obey me at the command of God, What I have written is but a pale shadow of the things I saw. But I noticed one thing: That most of the souls there are those who disbelieved that there is a hell." (Diary 741)

"Today, I was led by an angel to the Chasms of Hell. It is a place of great torture; how awesomely large and extensive it is! The kinds of tortures I saw:

The First Torture that constitutes hell is: The loss of God.
The Second is: Perpetual remorse of conscience.
The Third is That one's condition will never change.
The Fourth is: The fire that will penetrate the soul without destroying it. A terrible suffering since it is a purely spiritual fire, lit by God's anger.

The Fifth Torture is: Continual darkness and a terrible suffocating smell, and despite the darkness, the devils and the souls of the damned see each other and all the evil, both of others and their own.

The Sixth Torture is: The constant company of Satan.

The Seventh Torture is: Horrible despair, hatred of God, vile words, curses and blasphemies. These are the Tortures suffered by all the damned together, but that is not the end of the sufferings.

No Tax monies for Abortion!

2011-05-03T22:53:00.000-04:00

The U S House is scheduled to vote on H.R.3, the Smith, Lipinski "No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion act" on or about this Wednesday, May 4th.

Currently we have a patchwork of laws, like the Hyde Amendment, which restrict some funding and need to be voted into place every year.

Also, in major new programs created by Obamacare, federal subsidies are now permissible.
H.R.3 would replace this hit-or-miss approach with a permanent, government-wide prohibition on federal funding of abortion and federal subsidies for health plans that cover abortion.
Please call all our Congressmen. Remember Lynch and Neal voted for the Stupak funding ban and Keating, Neal, and Tsongas voted for the Continuing Resolution which had some abortion funding restrictions.

The message is to support H.R.3 and to oppose all amendments.

Cuff Lenk

2011-05-02T23:01:00.002-04:00

Openly homosexual Judge Barbara Lenk has been nominated to the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court by Gov. Patrick, in what could only be described as an affirmative action nomination.

Follow this link to see the shameful way the Governor's Council and Lt. Gov. Timmy Murray treat Pro-Traditional Family advocates who testified. Members of the Council felt free to demean, insult, patronize, intimidate, and question the motives of anti-Lenk testifiers, but gave unlimited time to Lenk Supporters and allowed Lenk to dodge tough questions about her judicial activism (When questioned by the Governor's Council about judicial activism, she flippantly claimed that she had no idea what that meant)and her disdain for the 2nd Amendment. She was asked by the Governor's Council: "Does the 2nd Amendment apply to the residents of Massachusetts through the due process clause of the 14th Amendment?" She refused to give an answer.

Ruling in an Incest case, Lenk wrote "By necessary implication, homosexual conduct . . . does not constitute incest and is not prohibited by the statute." This means homosexual incest would not be punished by Massachusetts incest law and that homosexual brothers and 1st cousins would be allowed to marry each other under Lenk's jurisprudence.

Call or email the Governor's Council and urge a No vote for Barbara Lenk.

Abortion made easy

2011-04-23T14:27:00.001-04:00

Abortion made easy for Massachusetts' teens. This Boston Herald report shows how a state-funded sex education Web site, mariatalks.com, tells teens an abortion is “much easier than it sounds”, while downplaying all risks, while explaining how to bypass parental approval: “It may be really hard for you to imagine talking to either your parents or a judge about getting an abortion, but there are people who can help you through it.”
Lifesite news article

And what kind of judges is Deval Patrick proposing for the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court? Undistinguished legal minds as long as they are openly homosexual.

Massachusetts governor Deval Patrick has nominated a well-known lesbian judge, Barbara Lenk, to the Supreme Judicial Court. Lenk is currently an appellate court judge, who was appointed by Bill Weld. This also appears to be part of a recent national push to appoint openly homosexual judges. Lenk's confirmation hearing before the Governor's Council will be Wednesday, April 27 at the State House.

From Shawn Carney "MORE THAN FOUR THOUSAND BABIES SPARED FROM ABORTION!"
From Worcester 40 Days "Our spring campaign is finished; no parishes are scheduled to vigil in front of Planned Parenthood until the fall campaign, which will run from Sept 28-Nov 6. Now, as we enter into Holy Week, and reflect on the events of Christ’s passion, let us also remember there is a present day Calvary on Pleasant St. It is our sincere hope that you will continue to come and pray on a regular basis as you did during the last 40 days. Planned Parenthood is counting on us packing up and leaving.
Many of you have thanked us for our work in this campaign... It has been our privilege to work with each you. You have been a source of inspiration to us.
You have seen God work in your own church or parish, turning your spark of interest into a flame. We have been blessed to see how God has worked to bring everyone together, to see the flame of each church spread to become a burning fire, and we love what we see!"

Scott Brown no longer Pro-Choice, but Pro-Abortion

2011-04-16T12:53:00.002-04:00

Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) ran a platform that claimed he was Pro-Choice, but a various points during the campaign and during his tenure in the Senate, he indicated that he was different than the Democrats who support the abortion lobby and Planned Parenthood. We Pro-Lifers believed we had someone whom we could vote for as a prudential judgement, as Scott would be against Tax payer funded abortion, and he would not promote the anti-human rights campaign of Planned Parenthood.

However with Scott's recent vote to allow Planned Parenthood to continue receiving tax payer funding for their abortion business, despite the record deficits our Federal government has racked up, and despite Scott's claim to at least be a fiscal conservative, it has become clear that Scott Brown has gone from Pro-Choice to Pro-Abortion, and no respectable Pro-Lifer can support or vote for him.

It's is very small consolation to note that Brown did vote AGAINST funding abortions overseas and in Washington, DC. but his vote to continue to give tax funding to the abortion business indicates he is Pro-Abortion.

Recently a pro-lifer related how she "got a mailing from John McCain asking for money to support Scott Brown. I immediately wrote on the return slip that I could no longer support the senator after he voted to support Planned Parenthood with taxpayers' money. I am mailing it back today. If you feel moved to do so, maybe you could mention in the newsletter that anyone else who receives a similar mailing might consider doing the same. If he gets enough of them he might think twice the next time a vote like this comes up. Otherwise he will be a one termer-- When are the Republicans going to get their ducks in a row-- ALLLLLLL the dems (even "pro-life" ones) voted their way."

I think this says it pretty well. Let McCain, and all the other Republicans who solicit donations that the Pro-Life vote is theirs to throw away, just like the Democrats did in 1992.

40 Days

2011-04-12T22:54:00.001-04:00

40 Days for Life update,
With just a few days left in the spring campaign, let us remember that when you get right down to it, abortion is a spiritual battle.
The idea of taking the life of an innocent human being under the guise of compassion, choice or "reproductive rights" could have only been devised by Satan himself.
We know of Christ’s love for women and their children. We also know that in the end, life wins.
Over these last few days, let us persevere -- and "put on the full armor of God," as Paul tells us -- and know that victory is assured!

Worcester 40 Days update:
Thursday, April 7 – What a great day to be outside, and parishioners from a number of parishes were there to enjoy the sunshine while they prayed. Prayer volunteers from Our Lady of Czestochowa, Our Lady of Mt. Carmel/St. Ann, and Blessed Sacrament were there along with parishioners from St. Michael’s in Mendon, St. Mary’s in Shrewsbury, and St. Mary’s in Uxbridge. As the group was praying the rosary just before noon, Eileen, a counselor at Problem Pregnancy, came out to ask that we pray for a woman who was there undergoing an ultrasound to check the viability of her baby. She already had an appointment at Planned Parenthood for an abortion. Because she did not drink enough water in preparation for her ultrasound, the baby’s image was not clear, although the heartbeat could be detected. She was invited back for a repeat ultrasound; however she left with the intention of keeping her appointment for the abortion. Please pray that she has a change of heart.
Fr. Joseph Mahoney, senior priest at St. Stephen’s, came by later with Dan Fullen, the “grandfather” of 40 Days for Life in Worcester. Dan’s son, Paul Fullen, and his wife Crystal, brought 40 Days for Life to Worcester in 2008, and they directed the first five campaigns. Fr. Ed Chalmers, pastor of St. Stephen’s, came to pray at the vigil in the afternoon, bringing the total number of St. Stephen’s vigilers to eight. Pauline Morris, Campaign Director, was there that day and brought her camera along.

Apr 14 Thu 11AM pray the rosary with Bishop McManus during 40 Days for Life, Pleasant St.
Apr 15 Fri 4PM "40 Days for Life" Mass at Blessed Sacrament Church, 551 Pleasant Street, Worcester. Celebrant is Fr. Laurence Breault; music by Assumption Schola Gregoriana.

40 Days for Life update, TEMPE, AZ - Charlotte finally made it to the 40 Days for Life
vigil in Tempe despite the busyness of life, dropping her older child at preschool taking her still pajama-clad 8-month-old daughter to the vigil. But Charlotte did not have a sign, like all the others praying there.

"Passersby started smiling and waving," wrote Charlotte. "I looked down to kiss the very active 8-month-old in my arms and realized my daughter had learned to wave!" And not just a little wave -- an energetic, both-hands-and-both-arms wave. That's when it hit me that my 8-month-old was smiling, waving, laughing and ministering to every person who looked at her, My baby said more than any sign could have. She is proof of God's amazing work. She may not understand
it yet, but she could have saved lives." At that point Charlotte realized she had the
best sign!"

Lead me on Kindly, Light of Truth

2011-03-27T19:10:00.000-04:00

Deacon Jack Sullivan spoke at the Worcester Diocese 11th annual Men's Conference yesterday, Sat. March 26, 2011, about the "divine favor" he received which was counted as the miracle needed for John Henry Cardinal Newman's beatification last September by Pope Benedict XVI.

Deacon awake 6 June 2000 with horrific pain in his legs, and barely able to walk. CAT scans revealed all lumbar vertebrae and disks had turned inward, pinching his spine, squeezing it from a normal diameter of about the size of a Quarter down to the diameter of a piece of string. He was told he would need surgery ASAP, and that he would have to quit his studies for the Permanent Diaconate. He went home, surfed TV, and stopped on EWTN, watching a show on Cardinal Newman and his difficulties and sufferings he endured as a result of converting from Anglicanism to Catholicism. At the end of the show, a banner displayed saying "If you receive any divine favors as a result of praying to Cardinal Newman for his Intercession, please contact ..."

Deacon Jack prayed of Cardinal Newman, "Please Cardinal Newman, help me to walk so that I can return to my Diaconate Studies." He went to bed, and woke up the next morning pain free.

MRIs still showed the disfigurement of his backbone and spinal cord, but since Deacon was asymptomatic, his surgeon took a wait and see approach to surgery. Deacon Jack finished the next two semesters of his third year of Diaconate studies, about 9 months, and prepared for some time off in the summer of 2001. The pain returned in all its fury.

Surgury revealed that his duromata, the protective sheath that holds the spinal fluid, was shredded. He could not walk without being hunched over and without assistance. He prayed the same prayer again. "Please Cardinal Newman, help me to walk so that I can return to my Diaconate Studies."

Deacon Jack suddenly felt intense heat, then joy that he could only describe as if he were in the presence of the Lord, which he just wanted to experiece, being unaware of any others in his hospital room. The Nurses said he spent about 10-15 minutes like this, after which he could walk upright and without pain. A team of physicians documented that there was no medical or scientific explanation for this.

The Pillar and the Cloud
Lead, Kindly Light, amidst th' encircling gloom
Lead Thou me on!
The night is dark, and I am far from home --
Lead Thou me on!
Keep Thou my feet; I do not ask to see
The distant scene -- one step enough for me.

I was not ever thus, nor pray'd that Thou
Shouldst lead me on.
I loved to choose and see my path, but now
Lead Thou me on!
I loved the garish day, and, spite of fears,
Pride ruled my will: remember not past years.

So long Thy power hath blest me, sure it still
Will lead me on,
O'er moor and fen, o'er crag and torrent, till
The night is gone;
And with the morn those angel faces smile
Which I have loved long since, and lost awhile.

40 Days for Life Vigil Highlights

2011-03-27T16:49:00.000-04:00

•Friday, March 18, there was a wind advisory, but we at 40 Days for Life think it was the Holy Spirit moving through the area. There was no parish was assigned. However, numerous faithful prayer volunteers and sidewalk counselors were there to hold down the fort throughout the day. A few faithful vigilers have made a commitment to be at the vigil EVERY day; others come often and stay for HOURS in the cold. Thank you for your sacrifice!

• Saturday, March 19, parishioners from St. Mary’s, North Grafton participated in the public vigil…and were joined at one point by our Heaven-sent neighborhood vigiler, Cecile (see photo on website).

After having only one person sign up after the Masses at St. Mary’s to pray at the vigil, despite encouragement from the pulpit by their pastor, Fr. Ray Goodwin, Julie had to come up with another way to get people to sign up. For those of us who have not always been successful enlisting prayer volunteers with sign up sheets, you may find this method helpful. Here’s how Julie did it: She asked the 4 members of the prolife ministry to each take a 3 hour shift to cover the 12 hour vigil day. Then each of the 4 committee members personally invited others to join them, either by calling them, or sending an email. Julie reports they had 14 people and many stayed beyond their 1 hour commitment. Julie gave each of the participants a “Precious Feet” pin and a prayer card with a prayer to close Planned Parenthood in Worcester.

• Tuesday, March 22 was an abortion day at Planned Parenthood, and a day with no parish assigned. We put out the call for prayer volunteers, and you responded to provide coverage.

• Wednesday, March 23 was the vigil day for St. George, Worcester, and an abortion day. It was yet another cold March day. Rod Murphy of Problem Pregnancy stopped by to say hello in the afternoon. St. George’s organizer, Stacy, brought her two month old son with her, and we think he holds the record for the youngest prayer volunteer of this campaign.

• Thursday, March 24 was an abortion day at Planned Parenthood, covered for part of the day by St. Mary’s in Milford. Faithful regular vigilers from a number of other parishes filled in the gaps.

• Friday, March 25 was covered by regular vigilers, including Fr. Larry, who comes each week.

• We end the week with bounty! This Saturday, March 26, prayer volunteers from all over the Diocese will be joining together to witness to life. The parish of St. Anne and St. Patrick in Sturbridge is assigned to cover the vigil. St. Bernadette’s parishioners who cannot make their assigned vigil day on Tuesday, will be coming on this, their alternate date. Members of the St. Benedict community, along with students from the IHM School, Still River will be at the vigil from 8:30-noon. And confirmation students from St. Joseph’s parish in Charlton are expected from 10:30-1.

If you are coming to the vigil this Saturday, please make sure that you are clear on where the buffer zone is located. If in doubt, stand across the street from Planned Parenthood. The Campaign Director and the Church Coordinator will be there to make sure that those representing 40 Days for Life know where to stand. We ask that you make sure passersby have room to walk on the sidewalk. We have notified the Worcester Police Department that we expect a larger than usual crowd.

The Week Ahead
The following parishes are scheduled:

Tuesday, March 29 – St. Bernadette
Thursday, March 31 – St. Joan of Arc & St. Mary, Uxbridge
Friday, April 1 – Holy Angels/St. Michael’s
Saturday, April 2 – St. Joseph, Charlton

If you are coordinating your parish vigil, please either enter the hours you have covered on the Vigil Schedule so your time can be recorded.
Housekeeping
•We’ve ordered more 40 Days for Life “Pray to End Abortion” signs which should arrive this week.
•If you plan to go to the vigil, please sign up on the Vigil Schedule so we get an idea of how much coverage we have. If you are hesitating to sign up because you don’t know the exact time you’ll be there or might not make it, don’t worry about that. Please sign up anyway. Your best guess is fine. : )

Fr. Corapi defended by Santa Cruz Media

2011-03-27T16:38:00.000-04:00

Santa Cruz Media, Inc. is the owner of all of Fr. John Corapi’s intellectual property and the DVDs, CDs, and books that flow from it. We are a secular corporation and not affiliated with the Catholic Church in any way. As such, we are not under the jurisdiction of any bishop or other official in the Catholic Church, although we have the utmost respect for Church authority.

We fully support Rev. John Corapi in this terrible trial, not surprisingly having begun on Ash Wednesday. Through the sacrifice and struggle of the desert and all of the dark moments that this entails, we are confident that the glory of the risen Lord will shine forth from the power of the Resurrection and Easter.

We have consulted with a number of canon lawyers. They have assured us that the actions of the Bishop of Corpus Christi, Texas are, on several points of canon law, illicit. It is our fervent hope that The Dallas Charter will be changed because of false accusations like this. There is no evidence at this time that Fr. Corapi did anything wrong, only the unsubstantiated rant of a former employee, who, after losing her job with this office, physically assaulted me and another employee and promised to "destroy" Father Corapi. We all continue to pray for this person, and we ask you to do the same.

We sincerely believe that the work Fr. Corapi has done is of greatest value to the Church, hence hated by the devil. We fully intend to make Fr. Corapi’s material available as a service to the Church and the world for as long as we possibly can.

The Church provides no financial support to Fr. Corapi. He has to pay for his own legal representation, medical costs, food, housing, etc. We have never accepted donations or charitable contributions of any kind. We are supporting Father’s efforts to defend himself. Your purchase of products from Santa Cruz Media helps provide the funding for Father's continued work as well as the legal expenses he continues to incur as a result of these malicious allegations.

Father Corapi and all of us here at Santa Cruz Media, Inc. greatly appreciate your kindness, support, and prayers. Please continue to pray for Father Corapi and his accuser, as well as all priests who find themselves in this unfortunate situation.

Sincerely yours in Christ,

Bobbi Ruffatto
Vice President of Operations
Santa Cruz Media, Inc.

Planned Parenthood of Central Texas is closing two of its centers that make abortion referrals to its main location in Waco. The affiliate of the national abortion business did not give any reasons for closing the locations in Groesbeck and Marlin, Texas. -- LifeNews.com Planned Parenthood of Northeast Ohio will be closing one of its centers north of Columbus, in Galion, because it says it is has come up on financial difficulties that make it necessary to consolidate.

Gay Marriage stopped in MD
"The Senate vote was definitely a wake-up call," said Minority Leader Nancy C. Jacobs (R-Harford). "It got the churches involved. It got people involved. Quite frankly, I thought it was going to fly through the House. But once delegates started hearing from their constituents, they started thinking twice."
Top Ten reasons why the this was able to be stopped:
1. They ignored the moderate conservative "experts."
2. Groups from everywhere became active.
3. Key activists worked really hard.
4. Outstanding leadership from politicians.
5. The churches got involved in a major way.
6. Fearless use of strong arguments.
7. Money was put to good use.
8. Ex-gay movement came in.
9. The Republican Party got involved.
10. Prayer.

Call Congress

2011-03-14T21:00:00.000-04:00

Congress will vote Tuesday 3/15 on another temporary Continuing Resolution (CR) that will fund the federal government for three more weeks.

However, unlike the original long-term CR passed by the House, this CR includes continued funding for both Planned Parenthood and for abortions performed in D.C.

In other words, voting for this CR is a vote to continue funding for the largest abortion provider in the United States (Planned Parenthood)

Send an email to Congress right now.

Massresistence takes the fight to MD

2011-03-02T21:30:00.001-05:00

MassResistance on front lines of "gay marriage" fight in Maryland . Bill gets stalled in House committee as 2 sponsors get cold feet!

Brian Camenker of MassResistance was interviewed during morning drive-time on WCBM radio in Baltimore. and warned Marylanders what would happen if same-sex marriage becomes legal in that State, as well as the nature of the homosexual political movement.

Listen Here

Maryland activists also made good use of the MassResistance information on What same-sex "marriage" has done to Massachusetts, and the federal judge's ruling against parents in the David Parker case (regarding homosexuality taught to kids without parents' knowledge or consent because of same-sex "marriage"). Most shocking and disgusting is the Little Black Book making the rounds of Massachusetts schools.

Greg Quilan also testified on the fallacy of 'born that way', as did

ANTHONY FALZERANO Testimony - Ex gay. Includes great discussion of the homosexual movement in America.

Please help with a donation if you can. The battle also rages in New Hampshire.

Call Sen. Brown now, (202) 224-4543

2011-03-01T10:28:00.001-05:00

Call Sen. Brown now, (202) 224-4543 and ask him to defund Planned Parenthood. As a Pro-Choice fiscal conservative, even Sen. Brown has to recognize the irresponsability of Planned Parenthood, and must concede that those of us who are morally opposed to abortion should never be forced to fund it with our tax dollars.

Despite Mayor Tom Menino's misguided attempts to misrepresent the Pence Amendment, and Planned Parenthood's media barrage attempting to defend there abortion work, the Pence Amendment should be passed into Law to prevent Tax dollars from funding abortion.

What hath the repeal of DADT wrought?

2010-12-27T20:57:00.000-05:00

December 21, 2010
letters@telegram.com

Some would argue that the Military should not be concerned with what a warfighter does in their private lives. The Military actually had a policy that did this, it was called Don't Ask, Don't Tell, DADT, and it was repealed by the lame duck Congress last Saturday, under pressure from the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgendered, GLBT community, who desired this policy change.

Some would also argue that gays and lesbians were given the State-sanctioned right to same-sex marriage by the Massachusetts Supreme Court because they were born that way. And because they were born that way, they should also be allowed to openly publisize their orientation while serving in the Military. Yet how so with bisexuals? If heterosexuals and homosexuals are born that way, does this mean bisexuals are born both ways? Or is bisexuality not how one was born but simply a rejection of social conventions, an expression of disdain for monogamy and fidelity in sexual relations?

But if bisexuals are not included in the repeal of DADT, and cannot openly express their bisexuality while serving in the Military, don't we risk the chance that an angry bisexual, raging against this new, bi-sexual DADT, will leak thousands of classified items in retaliation, as U.S. Army Pvt. Bradley Manning did to Julian Assange's WikiLeaks? More importantly will those who question the dogma of Progressivism that regards all sexual preferences as innate be labeled as heretics; and treated as such?

Sincerely,

JayG

Will either party support Traditional Marriage?

2010-12-26T20:56:00.000-05:00

While individual Democrats may be Pro-Life or Pro-Family, the Democratic Party is obviously the party of the abortion industry, trial lawyers, and the GLBT lobby. The Republican Party is considered the Party for Pro-Lifers, and for those who believe marriage is between one man and one woman, but many individual Republicans are quietly, and many times not so quietly, supporters of abortion and of the redefinition of marriage.

Dr. Mildred Jefferson April 6, 1926-Oct. 15, 2010 RIP

2010-11-28T01:06:00.002-05:00

"I became a physician in order to help save lives. I am at once a physician, a citizen, and a woman, and I am not willing to stand aside and allow the concept of expendable human lives to turn this great land of ours into just another exclusive reservation where only the perfect, the privileged, and the planned have the right to live. " - Dr. Mildred Jefferson

First African-American woman to graduate from Harvard Medical School
First female surgical intern at Boston City Hospital
First woman admitted to membership in the Boston Surgical Society

"The right-to-life cause is not the concern of only a special few but it should be the cause of all those who care about fairness and justice, love and compassion and liberty with law."

Dr. Jefferson is the person credited with bringing Ronald Reagan around to the Pro-Life view.

Dr. Jefferson spoke so passionately about the matter, she even changed President Ronald Reagan’s views when he was governor of California, according to Massachusetts Citizens for Life president Anne Fox.
“Before Roe v. Wade, Dr. Jefferson was on “The Advocates,” a program on the educational channel in Boston,” Ms. Fox said. “It was a high-quality debate on abortion. Gov. Reagan was so impressed by what she had to say, that he contacted her, and he completed changed his position.”

They hear what they want to hear

2010-11-24T11:10:00.001-05:00

The news media is like a wayward teenager, they hear what they want to hear whenever the Pope speaks. The controversy of late can be summarized in the words of the Catholic Culture Editorial.

Secular journalists have routinely interpreted the Pope’s statement as an admission that condom use can be justified, although the Pope’s full statement, in context, clearly makes no such claim.

Condom use cannot be "justified" nor has "The Vatican appeared to open the door Tuesday to a broader discussion about the acceptable uses of condoms," because the Pope said

There may be a basis in the case of some individuals, as perhaps when a male prostitute uses a condom, where this can be a first step in the direction of a moralization, a first assumption of responsibility, on the way toward recovering an awareness that not everything is allowed and that one cannot do whatever one wants. But it is not really the way to deal with the evil of HIV infection. That can really lie only in a humanization of sexuality.

Adding that the Church can never regard condom use as “a real or moral solution.”

Though the media distorts, and the bunglers at L’Osservatore Romano promote rash judgment, some things will always remain the same.

Update:Catholic Free Press runs CNS article Pope's remarks open new chapter in condom debate on 11/26/2010, p.3, which makes the preposterous claim that the Italian translation of the Pope's book said that condom use by a prostitute was "justified". Even the Thavis article is confusing, as Thavis quotes Pope Benedict that the Church “of course does not regard it as a real or moral solution [for prostitutes to use condoms], but in this or that case, there can be nonetheless, in the intention of reducing the risk of infection, a first step toward a different way, a more human way, of living sexuality.” So we have the Pope saying in a specific situation that one immoral act might indicate a "first step" towards an understanding of what constitutes moral action, and an alleged reporter claiming the Italian translation does not indicate this as a first step but as "justified".

The Body Doesn't Lie But Modern Culture does.
By: Msgr. Charles Pope
One of the great errors of our day is the implicit rejection of the truth that our bodies have something to tell us about who we are and what we are called to do and be. Most moderns see the body merely as a tool of sorts...

Construction in the Womb - Too Perfect!

The Pope has NOT condoned condom use
Thanks and God Bless,
Jay G.
