Some Considerations about Sen. Kennedy's funeral
Submitted by Tom on Wed, 09/16/2009 - 11:53am.To some people there was some controversy concerning the recent funeral of Sen. Kennedy. I thought I would post a link to this very thoughtful article published in the Fall River Diocese newspaper--Cape Cod is in the Fall River Diocese, btw. It helped clarify many issues about "Catholic teaching", which many of us (myself included) think we know, but upon reflection discover we don't really know, and then wonder where the heck we would look to find out.

Electro-magnetic pulse doomsday scenario
Submitted by Tom on Fri, 06/12/2009 - 11:00am.Hey, doomsdayers! Here's a link to an article from a Canadian magazine--Maclean's-- which talks about a fictional account about the destruction of all computers through electro-magnetic pulse explosion or something--and how it used to be a concern 'cause it would wipe out all our bank accounts. But now, it might be a blessing because it would wipe out all our debt! It's by a conservative humorist, but its not bitter or repulsive, like some of his articles.
I thought about it again after reading Chuck's May 15, 2009 post.
