There is a “cost” but it’s just social disapproval by liberals. My pro-life activities got me pointedly not invited to my class reunion. My feelings were hurt but only so long as it took me to put it into perspective. People who have no concern for vicious brutality practiced against the most helpless, voiceless and innocent members of society didn’t want to brag to me about their latest promotions. Boohoo.

Catholic teaching on Democracy
The Catholic Church supports democracy, because of all political systems it offers the best conditions for achieving equality before the law and safeguarding human rights. In order to do that, however, democracy must be more than mere majority rule. True democracy is possible only in a State ruled by law that recognizes the fundamental God given rights of all and defends them, if necessary, even against the will of the majority.
History teaches that even democracy offers no absolute protection from violations of human dignity and human rights. It always runs the risk of becoming a tyranny of the majority over a minority. Democracy depends on preconditions that it cannot guarantee in and of itself. That is why Christians in particular must make sure that the values indispensable to a democracy are not undermined.

Salvation is from the Jews by Roy H. Shoeman & Dr. Brant Pitre
The book traces the role of Judaism and the Jewish people in God’s plan for the salvation of mankind, from Abraham through the Second Coming, as revealed by the Catholic faith and by a thoughtful examination of history. It will give Christians a deeper understanding of Judaism, both as a religion in itself and as a central component of Christian salvation.
To Jews it reveals the incomprehensible importance, nobility and glory that Judaism most truly has. It examines the unique and central role Judaism plays in the destiny of the world. It documents that throughout history attacks on Jews and Judaism have been rooted not in Christianity, but in the most anti-Christian of forces.
Areas addressed include: the Messianic prophecies in Jewish scripture; the anti-Christian roots of Nazi anti-Semitism; the links between Nazism and Arab anti-Semitism; the theological insights of major Jewish converts; and the role of the Jews in the Second Coming.

THE THURSDAY GRUDGE
Posted by Pistol Pete
Yesterday’s MLK rally went exactly as expected.The bile flowed like water as speaker after speaker perverted his legacy by fomenting racial hatred and division.Screaming that they’re still victims and wanting more of what the evil ol’ white man has.I avoided the entire charade,given the invitees.
The media made a big deal out of the fact there were no republicans spotted in the crowd.Apparently they asked Boehner and Kantor,but Boney was speaking at another event and Kantor was asked after he’d committed to something else.Given the climate today any non-liberal people of pallor would have been beaten and no one would have seen anything. Besides,my BS-O-Meter would have melted and I can’t afford another one.
Tomorrow’s the funhouse.Don’t know what I’ll have,but I’ll come up with something.I always do.
