Unlike the M16, which is fully automatic, the AR-15 is “semi-automatic,” meaning a person has to pull the trigger for every shot. Most AR-15-type rifles are sold with a 30-round magazine, but it is possible to purchase after-market magazines with as many as 100 rounds. Jun 12, 2016

All men are vain in whom there is not the knowledge of God; and who by these good things that are seen, could not understand Him that is, neither by attending to the works have acknowledged who was the workman. (Wisdom 13:1)

Dear Reader:
During the month of February, since Lent has started and it is dedicated to the Passion of Christ, Holy Mother Church has us meditating upon the Redemption.This past week I was given a paper on the subject of Mary as co-redemptrix to review by a priest in Slovakia. As Catholics we have heard of Mary being called co-redemptrix,Continue reading →
Sorry your argument was for an out-of-date Second Amendment which was not intended for a militia.
You are wrong. it was not merely for a militia. it was for defending private rights from the federal government.
In 242 years of this country we have never been ruled by any dictator or needed to be protected by the Federal government which is made up our elected members of the community.
THIS IS SOMETHING I EXPECTED FROM ROME, HA HA HA – PLASTIC-LESS PIETY R.N.S.
All over the Christian world, the faithful are making sacrifices for the penitential season of Lent, which began last week. Some are giving up chocolate; others are turning away from Twitter. But the Church of England has one slightly unconventional vice it wants its parishioners to give up: plastics. MORE
In as much as I have Billy Graham listed as the Main false prophet in the Bible, what his daughter wrote years ago has credibility.
Billy Graham’s daughter was interviewed on the Early Show and Jane Clayson asked her “How could God let something like this happen?” (regarding the attacks on Sept. 11). Anne Graham gave an extremely profound and insightful response. She said “I believe God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are, but for years we’ve been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government and to get out of our lives. And being the gentleman He is, I believe He has calmly backed out. How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand He leave us alone?” Continue reading →
He is the major obstacle against my peace plan. One country 3 states.
Feb. 20 was one of the most heated and dramatic days in the history of Israeli politics. Compared with it, “House of Cards” is about as dark as “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.”MORE
Sorry: Look at all the school kids,and adults, who have been killed by automated rifles in the last twenty years. Our enemy is not the liberals, the enemy is Apostate Rome who took away the teachings and sacraments we need to off set Satan. More people are being possessed today than at any time in history. We have equal representation in our government and if we allow them to become tyrannical then we deserve to be punished for it. Each country gets the government and leaders it deserves. Also, it’s a matter of fact that insurance company’s have more control over our government and our lives than any other body of people. Why doesn’t that bother you?
I’m not advocating a ban on guns read it again. This is a Republic, and the second amendment needs to be changed, it’s obsolete.

The Main False Prophet in the Bible during the “Great Apostasy.”
To those doubting Thomas-es who question my thesis that the Rev. Billy Graham is one of the main, “False Prophets,” of which in the book of the Apocalypse 19:20 & 20:9 fits his description in uniting Catholics and Protestants under the Vatican II Church..
I have enclosed this brief summary as evidence, short of the many other documents I have in my file which I have kept over the years. Some of these documents I send out with my lectures and booklets. Continue reading →
What happened to the separation of Religion and State???
Iceland could become the first country in Europe to ban male circumcision, prompting criticism from religious groups about the ritual practiced in both Judaism and Islam. MORE
First of all, the 2nd amendment pertaining to the Militia was really replaced by our police forces and the United States Army.
Secondly, it takes 2/3’s of the states to change a constitutional amendment and that will never happen over this issue. We have gone 242 years without a dictator in the U.S.
All semi automatic assault rifles should be limited to a six bullet clip for public use.
Anyone who has be expelled from school, fired from work, dishonorable discharged from the military or other similar situations, should automatically be put on a no gun list for 2 years. After that when applying, be on a 30 day review and if determined not a threat to society, be allowed a weapon.
Schools should have at least one qualified licensed teacher for every 10 class rooms with a semi automatic hand gun and a bullet proof vest handy unless all of the above laws are put into effect.
