StBlogs.org is today’s featured
Catholic web site at CathNews.
It’s too bad the rest of St.
Blog’s Parish didn’t get a mention. BTW, anyone happen to know who’s maintaining
the parish registry since Gerard died?

Carnival 12 is up at Living Catholicism. I didn’t get around to sending a post
this time. Oh well.

“Internet pornography is the new crack cocaine, leading to addiction, misogyny, pedophilia, boob jobs and erectile dysfunction, according to clinicians and researchers testifying before a Senate committee Thursday [November 18, 2004].” – Internet Porn: Worse Than Crack?
For those who suffer from sexual addictions, I have good news. The Order of the Legion of Saint Michael (home to blogs Bro. Bubba’s Journal and Catholics in the Know) has reopened the Catholic Support Group for Sexual Addiction Recovery. CSGAR “is a Catholic group of fellow sufferers from addition to pornography, lust, and sins of the flesh”.
“CSGSAR is a safe place (as a computer discussion group can be) where people with the common bonds of being Catholic followers of Christ and being fellow sufferers of sexual addictions may share and seek support for our struggles with this addiction. We offer resources for ‘Tips on How to Avoid Sin’, advice and remedies given by the Church and the saints, and the fellowship of fellow sufferers. You are not alone.”
Other sources for help are Porn-Free.org, Pure Intimacy, Open-Mind.org, Free in Christ, and Covenant Eyes.
A couple weeks ago I heard about 11 Christians who were arrested while peacefully
protesting Outfest in Philadelphia. I waited for a few MSM outlets to report it,
but they didn’t. Here are two WorldNetDaily articles about it. I wish I had some
less obviously conservative sources. Any suggestions?
11 Christians arrested at homosexual event
Demonstrators spend 21 hours in jail, charged with felonies
Homosexuals planned Christian harassment
‘OutFest’ organizers announced efforts to block protesters now facing prison

Criminalized thoughts?
By Amy Doolittle, THE WASHINGTON TIMES
Jokes about political correctness have been around for more than a decade, and many Americans now take for granted conflicts over manger scenes on public property and Christmas carols in public schools. Hostility toward religious expression is no joke, however, to advocates concerned that “hate crimes” laws could be used to rob Americans of religious freedom, which they say is already the case in some parts of Europe.
