Ave Maria Controversy about Honoring Tom Golisano, Notorious Supporter of Pro-Abortion Politicians
3/7/2010 6:10:00 PM
By LES FEMMES - THE TRUTH
-Mary Ann Kreitzer
Matt Abbott at Renew America has an interesting article covering the on-going scandal at Ave Maria University. Ave Maria named their sports complex after Tom Golisano in exchange for a $4 million grant. Galisano's also funnelled millions of dollars into the campaign chests of NARAL-endorsed candidates including the most pro-abortion politician in history, Barack Obama. But Galisano claims he has "always" been pro-life. Wow! Our mothers told us actions speak louder than words, but when you want a piece of the Golisano pie maybe the only action that matters is the hand filling out the "pay to" line on the fat check. Apparently some prominent Catholics think the scandal is insignificant. Deal Hudson and Keith Fournier are cheerleading for Ave Maria's decision to honor Golisano while attacking The Wanderer for covering the scandal and dismissing the "peanut gallery of whining negative critics" (like me) who think honoring Golisano is wrong. Seems money covers a multitude of sins including using your millions to facilitate the murder of the innocent by electing radical pro-aborts.

Vatican paper looks at faith connection between saints and their mothers
3/6/2010 6:33:00 PM -CNA/EWTN News
Italian historians are taking interest in the role mothers in transmitting faith to their sons. Referring to the examples of St. Jean Vianney, Popes Pius X and Paul VI, the Vatican newspaper suggests that this relationship is fundamental to religious vocations. According to an article published in the Vatican paper L'Osservatore Romano (LOR), historians at a recent conference in Modena, Italy commented on the need to study the relationship that ties the man of faith to his mother. In studying biographies, they asserted that faith is almost always transmitted to a man by his mother. LOR indicates that while research into this relationship can be useful in "reconstructing biographical events of public personalities, it assumes a deeper and almost essential significance" if one looks at the emergence and maturation of a religious vocation.

The US Conference of Catholic Bishops' track record for liberalism is intact
3/7/2010 6:19:00 PM

-lesfemmes-thetruth.blogspot.com
Apparently the U.S. bishops' conference has learned little or nothing from the recent scandals over the Catholic Campaign for Human Development and other issues promoting Democratic party politics. And now the bishops' mouthpiece announces they will support the health care bill if.... What's the if? According to Politico, "The Roman Catholic bishops signaled Thursday that if agreement is reached with House leaders on anti-abortion language, the church would work to get the votes needed to protect the provisions in the Senate - and thereby advance the shared goal with Democrats of health care reform."

Liturgist: Pope aims to 'propose' practices
3/6/2010 6:36:00 PM
By NC Reporter
-John L. Allen Jr.
For the better part of five years, plenty of experts on Catholic liturgy have been waiting for the "real" agenda of Pope Benedict XVI, known as a traditionalist on matters of worship, to emerge from beneath a façade of patience seemingly built on dropping hints rather than imposing sweeping new rules. Now, however, the pope's own liturgist insists that the patient façade is actually the agenda. One month ago, that papal liturgist, Msgr. Guido Marini, sparked wide debate with his public call for a "reform of the reform," suggesting to some a desire to roll back the clock on liturgical reforms associated with the Second Vatican Council (1962-65). However, Marini insists that no such rollback is underway, and no dramatic new rules are in the works.
