Just relaxing on a Saturday afternoon. Did some lawn work earlier and now dinner is almost done. Just a few minutes to look over a few of my favorite sites.
The Vatican said Saturday that a bishop ordained in China this week without papal approval had acted in defiance of the Holy See and was automatically excommunicated.
Amid a deepening standoff with Beijing, the Vatican issued a strongly worded statement denouncing the ordination and said Pope Benedict XVI “once again deplores the manner in which the church in China is being treated.”
Transhumanism is a insidious philosophy that many people are simply unaware of. It is time to become aware. Transhumanism seeks not just to cure disease but to change the nature of man. To make him more than human with whatever means are available, whether it is with nanotechnology, artificial limbs, artificial intelligence, or genetic enhancement. Transhumanists have societies and magazines and conferences. They even argue that the writings of a Jesuit priest will convince Christians of their cause. It seems like benign science fiction, but transhumansim is far from it. It rejects the nature of humanity the fundamental principles that have governed society for thousands of years. Transhumanists envision a world where man is a master of technology and wields it to his advantage. They do not realize that what they advocate will do the exact opposite. It will make man a slave to the technology he creates.
Gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgender people would be added to the lengthy list of social and ethnic groups that public schools must include in social studies lessons under a landmark bill passed Thursday by the California Senate. If the bill is adopted by the state Assembly and signed by Gov. Jerry Brown, California would become the first state to require the teaching of gay history.
