In another religious gambit to rescue their flailing campaign prospects the Democratic Party is doing nationwide, something reprehensible and guaranteed to backfire. Perhaps they don't want to win? Their circulation of anti-Catholic ads earned their campaign strategy some national attention here.

Muslims Desecrate New Testament in Malawi
The school, in the traditional authority of Bwananyambi in the diocese of Mangochi, in the south of Malawi, is situated in an area where roughly 75% of the population are Muslims.
Although the school’s director had made it absolutely clear that no New Testaments were to be given to the Muslim pupils and that in no way was any student obliged to take a copy of the book, there was a subsequent uproar on the part of some Muslim youths, who tore up the New Testaments, threw them, howling at their teachers, and then threw the torn-up pages out onto the streets.
Some of the pupils, who live in a nearby Islamic hostel, denounced the New Testament distribution to their religious leaders as an "insult to Islam" and claimed they had been forced to accept them. Which in the following days resulted in Catholics fearing violent attacks by Muslim groups, said the priest.

Catholic Youth Salzburg Learn Kamasutra
The official youth group of the Archdiocese of Salzburg has attempted to grapple with "Youth and Sexuality" in their newspaper -- There aren't any micro-nutrients of Catholic teaching you can find -- A critical analysis.
Salzburg [kath.net/rn/pl/eg] "To you or to me? Youth and Sexuality". The "Catholic Youth of Salzburg" have written about the theme of sexuality in the agenda of their Newpaper in September 2010. The paper also contains what was previously announced. It falls on sexuality. Bernd Krallinger of KJ-Board of Directors speaks in the Editorial on page 2 right at the beginning: "Do I actually want now and today that he/she comes home with me? Trust your gut instinct -- the feeling, that God has given us. For whoever deliberately chooses a partner for him/herself and has taken so much time, as he/she needs, has hours of excitement and beautiful togetherness!“
On page 4 it goes to the subject and right at the beginning, the reader discovers from the Biologist Christine Molnar, that children already have a sexuality who are in-vitro. This means that boys will experience an erect penis, and girls an erect clitoris. In another part it goes to the subject of contraception. As Molnar says: "At first the point is prevention of unwanted pregnancies, sexually contractible diseases and in sexual abuse it will be important that children and adolescents have access to factual information." What the Church has to say concerning the theme of contraception is not mentioned.
On page 6 in the Newspaper "Servus" Roland Rasser, Dean and Pastor of Saalfelden, explains to the readers that at heart, most young people have the same initial starting point as the Church has. Rasser means that the sexuality must be subjected to love. Whoever night have expected that a Catholic priest would now remember that sexuality belongs to marriage and that the Church condemns premarital sex as a sin, would be in error here. The Dean says succinctly: " prescriptions, commands or coercion doesn't belong here, ethical valuations must grow from within freedom." Rasser then postulates: "Moral commands and demands, which are not possessed of rational foundations, have no force."
On page 8 of the Paper, the contentious "Aktion Leben" (yet again ) advertises for its organization. Kerstin Kordovsky-Schwab who is from Aktion Leben Salzburg writes here: "When a girl is unexpectedly pregnant, it's important, not to over rush informing the father of the child or parents. An injudicious abortion is often regretted." The Aktion Leben colleague reminds at that point that there is also the possibility of adoption. Kordovsky-Schab neglected in any case, to mention at the same time, that every person is a human being from the beginning to the end of their lives. Perhaps one does not want to overload the reader with the right to life. In the article there is then in any case the few positive scraps with an advertisement for the first love ambulance overshoots the State Hospital of Salzburg. These ambulances are among other things, known, that you can receive information where an abortion can be had in Austria.
On page 9 of "Servus" the subject of "First Sex - When is the ideal time to begin?" is tackled. Two youths explain in their own words. The 15 year-old Sebastian informs the readers "When the chemistry between partners is good and everything is right!" The 18 year old Katharina explains in the longest passage: "Everyone has to know, when he feels ready." Hertha explains to the readers that it's not intercourse itself that is important, rather also the foreplay is of great importance. Even Katarhina and 17 year old Felicia offer similar views. Almost as a whitewash, the 16 year old Patrick chimes in "No sex before marriage".
On page 12 of the paper, Maria Löcker tries to bring everything together in a Mini-Exegesis of the Bible and Sexuality. She reproves genesis first and then to the Sermon on the Mount. Löcker writes then among other things: "It isn't just about an aspect of procreation or women, who play with their feminine charms, n(Judith charmed the enemy general in order to murder him.), rather also in love, eroticism and tenderness n(Jesus allowed the woman to kiss and caress his feet). Toward the end the authoress writes: "Equalizing sexuality and sin is impossible because of this book!" That this absurd thesis has never been held by the Church is not mentioned by Maria Locker of the KJ-Salsburg in any case.
On page 13 Florian Feiner of the KJ deals with the legal side of sexuality in Austria and explains the penal code. Even here, the strict neutrality is maintained that in Austria sexuality is only prohibited if the partner is an adult and the other is younger than 14.
On page 14 then "unbelieveable sex laws" from around the world are described for the reader. So one learns, that in Russia that kissing in public is forbidden and that in Hawaii it is forbidden for a girl under eighteen to have a male friend. "Therefore, you'd better think thrice, where you go on vacation!", explains Florian Feiner of the KJ.
On page 16, the principle of banality is taken still further. So it is postulated what youth supposedly all know. The discussion is on anal, blowing, onanism, squirting, G-point, contraceptive devices, positions, Kamasutra or even on the ideal size of penises. Her enters Maria Erber (Instructor of History / kath. Religion) of the KJ then the readers, what are then the best positions are, in order to please one's partner. The answer of both KJ-colleagues: "every pair must clarify this question for themselves. Tastes vary, like if one is into Hip-Hop and the other likes Metal, one has a preference for normal sex, while another is more experimental." For the question as to what the normal penis size is, both "experts" explained the average size in Europe.
On page 18 and 19 there were described various banal love- and partner games. Here Andrea Ausserwinkler sells "brush meditations" with nivea cream and relaxation music. "The painting method is a very intimate method, which attempts to build trust. The student should have the opportunity to choose his/her partner for himself."
On page 20 and 21 is then on the theme " My body in the liturgy -- celebrate with the whole body". Here Agnes Eibensteiner and Maria Locker of the KJ describe an "Indian Sun Prayer". "As the lotus flower is before the rising sun, so I stand before you and receive light, love and strength."
A Summary: this publication is a declaration of bankruptcy of the "Catholic Youth (Salzburg). On 28 pages of the paper the presentation of the Catholic Church's position on sexuality is only mentioned minimally and in any case not by the responsible parties of the KJ or the Church. Not a single KJ-member spoke about the seriousness of this or tried rudimentarily to explain it. Simultaneously, the only Catholic priest, lamentably, who was brought to print, said that moral commands and demands, which are proposed without intelligent foundation, are not binding. Without a single word in the entire publication was it explained why anyone should wait for marriage or why sexuality before sex is a sin. The Newspaper Servus of the "Catholic Youth Salzburg" appears four times in a year and is financed with the Church-tax funds [Which means the Austrian Catholic pays for it whether he likes it or not) of the Archdiocese of Salzburg. Catholics from the Archdiocese of Salzburg should take well into consideration, if they should want to continue financing with their money something, which in principle, offers no Catholic substance whatsoever! The end responsibility in the Archdiocese of Salzburg is born here by Archbishop Kothgasser. The periodical has been on the market since September, till now one has still heard nothing, that Archbishop Kothgasser has taken corrective action or even distanced himself. One must conclude then, that he is publicly and knowingly tolerating this. So, from that, he bears a moral responsibility, when the young no longer (rn)

Madonnas Who Weep Blood
The ZDF (German Television Two) is showing a three part series about the miracles and unusual occurances in the Church -- following an idea from Andreas Englisch -- First part is available -- kathTube-special: The Tears of the Madonna of Syracuse.
Mainz [kath.net] Madonnas weeping blood, people, who are suddenly cured of serious illnesses or supposedly bear the wounds of Jesus: Are the unexplained phenomena signs of God's influence or deception of charlatanry? And why does the Catholic Church need miracles? The three part documentary "Power of Miracles -- The Secrets of the Vatican" began yesterday, Tuesday, the 26th of October. The following episodes are set for Tuesday at 20.15. The idea for the film comes finally from Andreas Englisch, the former Vatican Correspondent of the newspaper BILD.
The investigation follows authors Volker Schmidt-Sonderman and Peter Syudow in the wings of the Vatican, but also the holy sites throughout the entire world. People explain initially "their" miracles for the camera, experts contracted by ZDF attempt to explain the miracles with scientific methods. And finally it gets to the question, why Pope John Paul II., who more people raise "to the honor of the altars" than any of his predecessors, is to be canonized.
Part I, "When Madonnas Weep", explains among other things a story from Civitavecchia, where in 1995 a statue of the Mother of God in the garden of the family Gregori should have wept blood for give consecutive days.. Thousands of pilgrims have drawn to this village north of Rome. Actually, the Vatican doesn't recognize the "miracle". The statue was taken away and medically tested -- proof can not be obtained. Only one "weeping miracle" has been recognized by the Vatican up to this point, it is said to have happened in 1953 in Syracuse, Sicily. The ZDF-Three part series takes the objections and shows exciting components: how does the strict Congregation decide what are miracles, and which are not? Which role does the "voice of the people" play? And why did John Paul II have a Marian statue brought from Civitavecchia to Rome, in order to pray to her?
Part 2, "When those marked by death come back to life", runs on Tuesday, November 2nd, 20.15 hrs, among other things in the Marian Shrine of Medjugorje, where the Mother of God is said to regularly appear before six seers. More than fifty million people, among them many priests, have pilgrimaged, to a site which the Vatican has refused recognition.
"Who fights with the devil" is the title of the 3rd part of the documentary, which will air at the same time as the previous two. One of the features of this show will be the Capuccin priest, Padre Pio, who was canoized by John Paul II. in 2002 . This was astonishing, above all for the reason that his predecessor held Padre Pio, who is said to have born the wounds of Jesus and had the power of bilocation, for a swindler and a cheat.

Just remember that Jeff Anderson, Dark anti-Catholic Paladin, gives a lot of money to the Democratic Farmer Labor Party, when he's not giving money to the ACLU or conspiring with Pinch Sulzberger to write new attack ads in promotion of his legal gambits.

San Francisco Condemns Catholic Church
In Minnesota, they try to be more covert about their anti-Catholicism, but now, all three branches of government, including the fourth estate, feel emboldened to attack the Catholic Church. It's not a hyperbole to say that they share a certain commonality with another government of the Twentieth Century.
It shouldn't be necessary to remind people that many Communists in German and Austria joined the Nazi party. There just isn't that much difference, but they shared other common pursuits and interests as well, including hatred for the Catholic Church and the manipulation of moral panic for political purposes. Here it is again:
By Kathleen Gilbert
SAN FRANCISCO, October 26, 2010 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has shakily allowed to stand a resolution by the city government of San Francisco that lambasted the Vatican as "meddl[ing]" and "insult[ing]" for reaffirming its teaching against homosexual adoption, and which urged Church officials to disobey the Magisterium.
The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith in 2006 had issued a statement clarifying that Catholic Church agencies, in line with the Church's moral teaching on sexuality, should not hand over children to homosexual couples seeking to adopt. The statement was prompted by Catholic Charities branches in Boston and San Francisco choosing to cooperate with homosexual couples seeking adoption.
As a result, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors later that year issued a nonbinding resolution that personally attacked Cardinal William Levada, the head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and former archbishop of San Francisco, and his directive as "discriminatory and defamatory."

Yale Comes to Minnesota and Talks about God and Man
Reading this morning, it looks like Stella Borealis' image and story has made it up to National Review. Look, you don't have to have a Yale degree and snazzy CIA connections to know that the Democrats are the party of hatred for religion.
They have apostate Catholic Tim Pawlenty saying this:
Alex Conant, spokesman for Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty’s Freedom First PAC, responds to the mailing with the observation that “Minnesota Democrats know they’re about to lose — and lose badly — but that’s no excuse for this sort of partisan and misleading mudslinging.”
Far be it from us to join in on the fun. We have no love for the National Review here and even less love for the legacy of William F. Buckley who hated his conservative Irish Catholic constituency anyway.
We think it's safe to say that however politicizing prelates and their allies in either political party play these games, that it should be clear to everyone that the Democratic Fifth Column Party is a definitive force for the alienation of property from property owners in the name of a fabled great society.
Word to the wise for true Catholics everywhere. Democrats may despise you, but Republicans use you.
Hey Kathryn Lopez, at least you could give the originators of the story some credit here. Ray Marshall is the one who broke the story and provided the mailer from one of his correspondents. Thanks to Ben Smith at Politico for the citation too, and making us aware that the neo-Cons at National Review had covered the story, too.
Democratic party members may cry foul on the origin of the photo and its intent, but they are, as a party, in love with hating the Catholic Church. Moreover, it's really hard to get away from the convenient duality and symbolism of the Roman Collar which reminds us of Ludwig Wittgenstein's famous Duck Rabbit:

The Green Party's Attack on the SSPX Ends: Father Schmidberger Hails Decision
The German District Superior of the Society of Pius X are resisting completely against the "complete impertinent calumnies" of the 'green' Comrades.
[kreuz.net, Stuttgart] The Society of Saint Pius X is not being threatened by the Constitution.
Enemies of German Common Law are much more "men like Volker Beck, who allows, that a Catholic Religious Society can be attributed to the right radical milieu."
The District Superior of the Society of Pius X in Germany, Father Franz Schnidberger, said to the agency 'dapd'.
The Society found their school of thought on the Christian West.
Lately, the homosexual German, Comrade Volker Beck, an appointee of the 'Greens', over a defeated parliamentary proposal in the German Bundestag to use the German Security Forces to watch the SSPX.
Father Schmidberger too the fanatical inquiry of supposed "extremist inclinations of the Society of Pius X" according to his "own astonishment" to his reading:
"The completely impertinent calumnies were in the meantime struck down by the justice of the law."
The priest criticized Beck for his "mental dictatorship" and also for an attack on freedom of expression anchored in the common law.
Furthermore, Beck has pursued a "nationwide stage managed campaign" for homosexual-privileges against the Constitutionally confirmed rights of marriage and family:
"As a consequence, we would like to propose that Mr. Volker Beck t resign from all of his political offices.

"Freethinkers" Want to Ban Summit Crosses in Switzerland
The Free-Thinker Society of Swizterland wants to ban crosses. They see that the religious neutrality of Switzerland is damaged by crosses.
Zurich/Luzern [kath.net] The Free-Thinker Society of Switzerland (FVS) wants to ban summit crosses. The weekly "Central Switzerland on Sunday" reported this. The mountain.
Reta Caspar, business manager of the FVS said, the Society wants "no new summit crosses". Most have been standing for years, but today building permit. "And now we expect from the authorities that there will bee a moritorium," said Caspar to the Times. As far as building permits for new summit crosses the FVS will establish a caveat. That will also apply to the replacement of existing crosses, said Casper.
The Freethinkers refer to a decision of the Swiss Supreme Court from the year 1990. The high court ruled then that Crucifixes in public schools would breach religious neutrality.

Minnesota Democrats Accuse Catholics of Ignoring the Poor
The Democrats are proud of their generosity to the poor, and owing perhaps due to some unclear thinking aren't aware that charitable acts must be of free will, and there's no merit in being generous with other people's money. Hat tip to Ray at Stella Borealis for this item. But with them it's always the same, high crime and higher and higher taxes.
Now there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said: Why was this waste of the ointment made? [5] For this ointment might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and given to the poor. And they murmured against her [Douay-Rheims] Luke 14: 4-6.
A recent postcard mailed the the MN DFL State Central Committee has a picture of a priest wearing a button that says "Ignore the Poor"..
The picture takes up the entire side of the postcard!
How low has the DFL party sunk that they would mail out pictures of a priest urging people to ignore the poor?
In their haste to try to run from the Democrat agenda of Higher Taxes and ever more Inefficient, Ineffective and Expensive Government programs, the DFL has gone too far.
The other side of the postcard talks about Government Health Care. Government run health care means the end of Catholic Hospitals. I guess the Democrats have to demonize Catholics in order to justify their stand on Government Run Health Care
InsideCatholic.com | Understanding "Incivility"
More crying and weeping about "incivility". Heaven forbid that Jesus should have called people names, bound up a whip of cords and beat the crap out of people...
If Catholics always and everywhere took the point of view taken by a lot of contemporary Catholics and people like Deal Hudson, Catholicism would never have evolved beyond a parlor game.
It's hard not to view his role as being that of a wet blanket for any fervor on the part of Catholics in general. Wherever it rises up, he feels compelled to impose his layman's authority and disapproving glance to shame Catholics into silence while their legacy continues to be bought and sold on the free market.

Islam Prevents AIDS
The western condom-ideologues and old Liberal Sex-theologians can froth and snarl, as long as they want. They are never the less the main reason, why HIV has spread so frantically.
[Kreuz.net] The deadly HI-Virus has not spread as much in Islamic lands as elsewhere. This was explained by Michael Grandt yesterday ont he website 'info.kopp-verlag.de'. Worldwide there are around one percent of all people from 15 to 49 who are infected.
The leading area for AIDS infestation is Southern Africa. There the condom propaganda is especially strong. Since then, 22.4 Million people have become HIV carriers.
In decadent West Europe the number of virus carriers are 1.5 million and in North America, 1.4 Million.
In regions where there are a majority of Muslims living, the AIDS Rate is correspondingly below average.
Grant mentioned North Africa as well as the Near and Middle East.
Even in one of the poorest countries in the world, Somalia, has an AIDS Rate 0.5 procession only 76th place in the line of nations - far removed from the usual African States, in which is found an exorbitantly high rate of HIV infection.
Further Islamic States show a very low rate of the Virus' transference:
Iran: 0,2%
Indonesia: 0.2%
United Arab Emirates: 0.18%
Irak: 0.1%
Turkey: 0.1%
Egypt: 0.1%
Syria: 0.1%
Saudi Arabia: 0.01%
Afghanistan: 0.01%
According to the reports Grandt speaks considerably therefore that Islam with its sexual morality is the reason for the low spreading of HIV: "Extramarital intercourse is a Taboo."
Even Homosexual immorality is regarded with inestimable horror.
The Western Dogma for the unsuccessful prevention of HIV -- like the free distribution of condoms or needle exchange -- are condemned as "Unislamic".
For many Muslims understand the AIDS epidemic, that the Islamic norms and values are superior to Western decadence.

Interfax Religion Editor Complains about Meanies at Church
- What acquaintances and events do you remember most brightly from the time of your work in religious journalism?
- I won't conceal that religious journalism met me without enthusiasm and the first editorial task left bad aftertaste. I remember that I had to go to a Liturgy and make a news report basing on the sermon. Trying to come closer to the ambo with a pen and note book, I asked two women to give me the way and one of them answered me harshly that there was no place in the church for people like me. When I asked "Why?" she gave me a precise response: "You wear a hat! Woman of fashion serves Satan." I spent the rest of the service with this label as a "foster." Should I say that on that day I didn't have any inspiration for the work...
However, such unpleasant moments were soon put into shade by impressions from meetings with great number of people who constituted intellectual nuclear of religious organizations - synodal departments, spiritual boards, rabbinates, belonged to the category of newsmakers. My journalistic cooperation with the Department for External Church Relations was certainly very important for me as then it was the main link between the Church and mass media.
I was pleasantly surprised to see how DECR representatives tactfully and readily explained me details of church policy, no matter that then I was a very young girl rather far from understanding church situation. I was pleasantly surprised that priests who headed key spheres of church policy were modern. Certainly my acquaintance and communication with the Chairman of the Department Metropolitan Kirill was very important for my creative destiny. Probably, his election to the patriarchal see that took place later has become the most memorable event in my career.
