I wonder if Obama had anything to do with this?
One of the world’s most important religious sites and Judaism’s holiest site, Jerusalem’s Temple Mount and Western Wall, were reclassified as an exclusively Muslim shrine Thursday after a United Nations organization adopted a polarizing resolution that denies Jewish connection to the site. MORE

Here we go again. David Geffen’s hit On Hillary Clinton which helped get Obama Elected in the 2008 Campaign, but now however, that has all changed. Hillary knows where the money is and is in town for a fund raiser at Dream works Studios or in Beverly Hills?

Up until now, my work has always focused on credit growth in the United States. In the latest Macro Watch video, uploaded today, I broaden the analysis by incorporating credit data for China, the Euro Area, Japan and the UK – areas of the world that account for an additional 40% of global GDP. This expanded coverage allows us not only to analyze credit trends in the parts of the world that have been added, but also to estimate the level of Total Debt for the entire world. (Remember, Credit and Debt are two sides of the same coin. Total Credit equals Total Debt.) MORE
The public outcry against the unchecked growth of France’s Muslim population has prompted the country’s leadership to attempt to “demonstrate to the world that France and Islam are fully compatible”; Muslim leaders, in their turn, have suggested that turning empty or abandoned Catholic churches into mosques could be the best example.

Second Epistle Of Saint Paul To The Corinthians Chapter 4: 1-18[1] Therefore, seeing we have this ministration, according as we have obtained mercy, we faint not; [2] But we renounce the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor adulterating the word of God; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’ s conscience, in the sight of God. [3] And if our gospel be also hid, it is hid to them that are lost, [4] In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of unbelievers, that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not shine unto them. [5] For we preach not ourselves, but Jesus Christ our Lord; and ourselves your servants through Jesus. Continue reading
Political candidates, consultants and the media generally misunderstand the politics of abortion rights. They tend to believe either that most voters oppose abortion or that the anti-abortion base is larger than the abortion rights base. But neither is true.
A recent nationwide poll by Ann Selzer (declared “The Best Pollster in Politics” by FiveThirtyEight), commissioned by the Public Leadership Institute, proves that voters overwhelmingly support abortion rights both in general and when asked about specific reproductive rights policies. In addition, the poll shows that those who “strongly support” abortion rights substantially outnumber those who “strongly oppose” it. MORE
The church has always reached out to sinners, but does not condone sinful behavior. In as much as homosexual behavior and abortion ranks among the capital sins, so does oppression of the poor and defrauding laborers of their wages. I seldom hear the level of outrage leveled at gays and abortion which should be equally leveled at these other two capital sins just as prevalent in today’s society, if not more so.
A clothing store in Gaza City named Hitler 2 is displaying mannequins with knives strapped to their hands as an homage to the upsurge in stabbing attacks on Israelis by Palestinians.
“We believe that the Russian response of deploying missiles in Kaliningrad is an absolutely inappropriate response to what the North Atlantic Alliance is doing,” Witold Waszczykowski said on Monday.
At a July NATO summit in Warsaw, members of the alliance announced they would deploy four multinational battalions to Poland and three Baltic countries, amid fears of potential Russian aggression following Moscow’s annexation of Crimea in 2014. MORE
The Mission of Iraq, which sits on a wealthy Upper East Side block near Central Park, has a dark secret: Its basement was used as a jail equipped for torture under Saddam Hussein’s regime, The Post has learned.
When he rose to power in 1979, the despot had the terrifying “detention room” installed inside the five-story building at 14 E. 79th St. — right across from billionaire former Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s home, according to two Iraqi officials speaking on the condition of anonymity. MORE
Russia is ordering all of its officials to fly home any relatives living abroad amid heightened tensions over the prospect of global war, it has been claimed. MORE
Just how long can people live?
New research suggests there may be a limit to our life span — one that’s hard to extend without some sort of breakthrough that fixes all age-related problems.
The record for the world’s oldest person is 122 years and the odds of shattering that record are slim, according to an analysis published Wednesday in the journal Nature. MORE
We survived Hurricane Matthew, even though it veered it’s ugly head as a skeleton, Our Lord answered our prayers and it was pushed offshore. There was loss of electricity but only for twenty-four hours in Vero Beach. I would like to mention there are hundreds of Latin Rite Catholics on both sides of the coastline, both West and East of Florida. Thank you and God bless you.
