"politically motivated"?

"The attack on the clinic, allegedly by Robert Lewis Dear Jr., was 'definitely politically motivated,’ said the official, speaking on the condition of anonymity..."

"politically motivated"? please. is everything "politically motivated", as some would have us believe? what about "insanely motivated" or "morally motivated with an insane sense of right and wrong"?

Merry Winter Solstice

For all those who are offended by Christians and by the word "Christmas", if I had my way, then I'd declare you the winners. 

Anti-Christian sentiment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I agree with you--let's not call it "Christmas" any more. Let's call December 25 "Winter Holiday" or "Santa Claus Day" or, since some will argue that the origin of Santa Claus is Christian, call it "Gift Giving Day" instead. ("Indulgence Day" would be a better description; but then, there are those who will argue that this too has a Christian connotation.) 

Let those few Christians who celebrate Christmas in remembrance of the day that their Savior was born celebrate it in Peace.

Galileo

Columbus discovered that the earth is round by observing sailing ships slowly disappearing (bottom to top) over the horizon. Galileo, discovered that the earth rotates and orbits around the sun by observing tides and the stars.

witness tree

Yesterday while walking the trail in the southwest corner of the 5,000 acre Manassas National Battlefield Park ("Stuart's Hill"), we saw a sign marked "witness tree". This morning, after searching "witness tree" on the internet, we know, as Paul Harvey used to say, "the rest of the story."

Pope Francis is One Smart Businessman in "Merchants at the Temple" - Fortune 

"He overturned the tables of the 

money changers..." Matthew 21:12

"You shall not steal." Exodus 20:15

"the indifferences by which He is offended"

"Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore You profoundly, and I offer You the Most Precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all the tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges and indifferences by which He is offended. And by the infinite merits of His most Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg the conversion of poor sinners."
Fatima prayer to the Holy Trinity

Is God offended by idle talk in the sanctuary? by those who should know better? by seniors who engage in long, loud conversations about friends, golf, shopping, restaurants, etc.? (Some of whom position themselves between those kneeling in prayer and the tabernacle.)

Sadly, I witness this regularly.
