Pope Francis’ award to Hollywood pro-abortion, anti-marriage advocates endangers the family ~ Sad but true; this progressive pope is doing untold damage to the Catholic church ~
As Catholics we rightly cringe to speak ill of the pope. But for anyone who has ever lamented the scandal of Catholic institutions honoring or giving a platform to public opponents of Church teaching, there is simply no dismissing the fact that this too is a grave scandal […]
By honoring activists like Clooney, Gere, and Hayek, Pope Francis is undermining the Catholic faithful’s effort to preserve the faith. He’s making our job next to impossible.
But here’s a Catholic voice for righteousness ~
Spanish cardinal doubles down on rebuke of ‘gay empire’ amid attacks ~ Cardinal Antonio Cañizares is among those few Christian leaders courageously standing against the LGBTQ tsunami ~
June 1, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – A feminist organization in the Spanish province of Valencia are asking the government to prosecute a cardinal who denounced the influence of the “gay empire” and gender ideology.
Cardinal Antonio Cañizares, former prefect of the Vatican’s Congregation for Divine Worship and current archbishop of Valencia, recently told the faithful in a sermon, “The family is being stalked today, in our culture, by endlessly grave difficulties, while it suffers serious attacks, which are hidden from no one” […]
“The censure and condemnation suffered by me in part of the media, by certain groups and certain politicians, remind one of periods of our history, but which are still recent, in which they censured and condemned certain homilies and certain preachers,” said Cañizares, invoking the persecution of Catholic clergy by socialists before and during the Spanish Civil War, in which thousands were killed for their faith. “Is it homophobic to defend the family?” he asked.
No Padre – it isn’t. Especially in light of eternity.

Oregon Woman Concerned After Man Who Identifies as Woman Admitted at Women’s Shelter ~ In light of today’s crazy trans-confusion Malka Davis, a formerly-homeless woman, shares her experience from 2014 ~
“It jeopardized the security of a dozen or so women for the benefit of one man’s sense of belonging,” Davis outlined. “Not only that, but for every man who is admitted into a women’s shelter under the speciousness of gender ideology, untold numbers of bona fide women are left waiting on the streets. That is not just unfair, it’s unjust.”
She said that many who push transgender issues do not often realize those who are affected by such choices, including women at homeless shelters, who have no say in whether or not they don’t want a man living and sleeping with them in their room.
