Martyrs

Well the other day was a feast day of Sts Peter and Paul..Since they're martyrs it got me to thinking about the kind of faith one would have to have to die for God..I'll be honest-I don't think I could ever do it. I'd probably run away, then of course feel guilty for it. Well I cant even begin to think of the kind of love and faith one would have to have in order to be willing to give their entire self for God, and in many cases the death wasnt without torture. I guess in many respects its not so much the love for God, but its the strength and selflessness that the love of God provides for one that helps them to do that...Wow..Well, hopefully I won't be subject to martyrdom anytime soon becuase that would really suck.

haha

RIP

Infomercials just wont be the same without Billy Mays :(

oh forgot!

My last...

My last post was a bit pathetic I admit..Its OK though..Just a slight human moment :) It was completly unoriginal-because I hop on to facebook and "RIP Michael Jackson..Farrah Fawcett.. [Ed McMahon]." Was everywhere. I failed to recognize Ed McMahon, simply because Im holding on to a grudge since he never showed up at my house with balloons and a big check with my name and one million dollah on it. It will pass eventually though. Nothing a little confession, penance, and prayer can't fix :) Anyhow..I was looking over some news, and noticed an article pretty much freaking out over Anne Coulter's comment on the murder of abortion doctor, something Tiller..I forget his first name, so sue me. Well anyhow, it was bitching about how she mentioned that they had killed Tiller in his something-hundreth trimester. People were pretty pissed off with Coulter's words about the whole situation. What people failed to recognize was that Coulter stated that she didn't condone the killers- but just the fact that she was making a statement to question the idea of just when does life begin? When we kill a child in its first trimester, its pretty much the same as killing a person in their 100th trimester. While Coulter can be a bit to blunt for me sometimes, she had a point. And I guess the whole argument irks me because people seem to be able to rip into conservatives so freely, while bashing a liberal is much less tolerated. Liberals are often seen as "progressive" and the "open-minded" folks who support the people...I guess liberals have convinced us that was is different these days seems to be the "politically correct" way to be, whereas being a conservative and opposing certain views is simply rude and intolerant (and homophobic). Well, I'll write more later. Maybe.

This has nothing to do with my faith as a Catholic..but as a fan of the entertainment biz :(

Well....As many of you know, this is one of the saddest days in entertainment history..I woke up to "Farrah Fawcett, dead at 62.." well, I saw that one coming. But I come home to "Michael Jackson, dead at 50." OK, I know M.J. is known for his sketchyness and poor decisions, but he is a legend in the entertainment biz!! He was a great performer, had great songs, and he never bit a bat's head off or took out one of his ribs (as far as I know).. Does that make him a good person?? I don't know..But, I know theres a lot more artists out there who are just as sketchy-but, they don't have the music that matches Jackson's...So, lets hear it for Fawcett and Jackson!! And, to make this Catholic related I will pray for there souls at prayer group..

RIP Farreh Fawcett :(

My fav quote by her: "The reason that the all-American boy prefers beauty to brains is that he can see better than he can think." gahhh another great star of the good old times gone to God..
