My Domestic Links of Interest

1.  More on bad church music.  Of course, Gather Us In, makes the cut.

At least the majority of the time, I’l playing the music, and not singing the lyrics. So at least that’s a small blessing.

2. The Richmond Bishop, Francis X. DiLorenzo,  responds to the comments of his lost sheep, Tim Kaine:

More than a year after the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling on marriage, and despite recent statements from the campaign trail, the Catholic Church’s 2,000-year-old teaching to the truth about what constitutes marriage remains unchanged and resolute.As Catholics, we believe, all humans warrant dignity and deserve love and respect, and unjust discrimination is always wrong. Our understanding of marriage, however, is a matter of justice and fidelity to our Creator’s original design. Marriage is the only institution uniting one man and one woman with each other and with any child from their union. Redefining marriage furthers no one’s rights, least of all those of children, who should not purposely be deprived of the right to be nurtured and loved by a mother and a father.We call on Catholics and all those concerned for preserving this sacred union to unite in prayer, to live and speak out with compassion and charity about the true nature of marriage—the heart of family life.

The Study on Fats

which apparently is just about as bad in the eyes of some folks as eschewing vaccinations altogether! He is in danger of losing his medical license in California

Here’s an explanation of the charges.

6. Goodness knows, I am not a fan of Occupy Democrat at all, but this video was the first I have seen that really makes the excellent contrast of how races are treated differently by law enforcement in a number of high profiled cases.
