CATHOLIC NEWS: Many evagelicals and conservatives miss out ...

... on some great news, reports, and extras in the Catholic side of the New Media. For example Roman Catholic Blog ...

Teddy Calls Cardinals Bigots
Senator Edward Kennedy, a man known for his integrity and moral restraint, as well as for drowning Mary Jo Kopechne in his car at Chappaquiddick and then discussing the accident with several people, including his lawyer and Kopechne's parents, before he contacted the police 10 hours after the accident, has decided that it is politically expedient to call U.S. Catholic cardinals bigots because of the Catholic stance on homosexual marriage, according to this article: Kennedy to Cardinals: You're All Bigots!
After a brief discussion of Kennedy's stance on abortion, "Thomistic" comments, "I'm confused. Why is this man not a candidate for excommunication?"

My answer, "Follow the money; always follow the money!"

And in a great post with really excellent links to material you and I won't be aware of ...

Are Pervert Priests a Gift of God to the Church?
Studies of the sex abuse scandals revealed that 81.9 % of sex crimes committed against young people by Catholic priests during the past 52 years involved homosexual men preying on boys.

Only 5.8% of victims were under age 7; 16% percent were between ages 8-10; and over 78% were between the ages of 11-17. 44% of the accused priests were accused by more than one person, and contrary to the suggestions implied by the media, the victims have not been preadolescent children; they were generally teenage boys.

A HT to the RCB for a link to this ...

"Dr. Death" Has Second Thoughts About Assisting Suicides - ABC News
Today, on his 78th birthday, Jack Kevorkian, the man known as "Dr. Death," is slowly dying in prison.

And, according to his lawyer, Kevorkian seems to have second thoughts about helping people die.

Good source for keeping up to date on the RCC view of things.

DISCLAIMER: No this is not a CRIB endorsement of Catholicism or Catholic theology or Catholic anything ... they are simply reporting what they think is news worthy and I happen to agree with them.
