I Feel So Much Better Now!

In my Calculus class in high school I wasn't stupid at all;

according to Calvin and Hobbes I was just a math atheist.

My rights were being descriminated against. Where was the ACLU when I really needed them?

There She Goes Again . . .

or why I don't like Mrs, Clinton very much at all, at all.

She chose to wear a bracelet similar to this, on the day of the primary in a predominately Catholic state, when she knew that gaining s strong Catholic vote would help her to win.

She is like a chameleon. She changes to become like whatever group she needs to court. I am sure you all haven't forgotten her misfortunate speech using black vernacular English at the predominately African-American church in Chicago a few short months ago.

We all need to redouble our prayers to Our Holy Mother (and her Son, and His Father) to keep Mrs. Clinton out of the White House.

h/t to Korrektiv and American Papist for the heads up on this one.

A Little Hope for Christmas

What better way to spend this Advent than by reading and meditating on a new Papal Encyclical:

Saved by Hope

Here is a review from Catholic Online.

I am a great proponent of the average pew-sitting Catholic reading these amazing documents. In fact the first one I ever read was Fides et Ratio in 1999, long before I ever thought I would work for the church or get a Gradual Degree in theology. I just decided one day that if the pope wrote this encyclical for "the faithful" that included little old me. So, I printed out a copy and worked my way through it.

Since then I have made it a point to read each new one as soon as I can when they are published. When I was working for the parish I wrote an article encouraging everyone in the parish to read Deus Caritas Est.

So. I am sorry Judith Viorst, but Murdering Mr. Monti will have to wait, because I am going to be reading this for the next few days. Then perhaps I will savor what I have read until Christmas. That seems to me to be a much more spiritual use of my time than finding out how and why your protagonist chose to murder anyone, especially this time of year.
