Just when I thought I couldn't be more amazed at the animosity of the anti-life crowd towards babies... THE STORK is a short video which brings new meaning to the old phrase "Baby Boom"!

If these people had any integrity they would do themselves in without contaminating the atmosphere with another lung full of carbon dioxide, and decompose helpfully under a native tree. Just to be clear, I don't wish that on them by any means. I hope that all human beings live to their full potential. That is what being pro life means.

I doubt many people have been holding their breath waiting for my next inspirational post *cough* but in case anyone is wondering, I haven't dropped off the face of the earth. It feels more like the face of the earth dropped on me.

I tried to resist posting this after seeing it first at Sci-Fi Catholic, but I couldn't help myself. DGD is right, it's 'dang funny'. I winced, cringed and laughed a lot! I loved the line about Catholics.

Prayer for Peace

O Lord Jesus Christ, who in your mercy hears the prayers of sinners, pour forth all grace and blessing upon our country and all its citizens.

We pray in particular for our Prime Minister and all members of parliament, for our soldiers, for all who defend us, whether on land, sea or in the skies, for all who are suffering the hardships of war. We pray for all who are in peril or in danger.

Though seriously disheartened by the recent election results in her country, Karen from Some have Hats still found time to reflect on some of the reactions from 'Gay' activists against Christians who voted to uphold a traditional definition of marriage.

"Burn their f---ing churches to the ground, and then tax the charred timbers," wrote "World O Jeff" on the JoeMyGod blogspot. ...
