  3. I told this story before. In college, I went to a lecture by a Libertarian speaker. He started by saying there should be no laws regarding alcohol or drugs. I didn’t agree but it got a good reception from some. Then he said that there should be no laws against sex with children. I walked out.

    Obviously, that is a small segment but I have been wary of Libertarians since then.

    Unsuspecting Family Recovers From ‘Brain Worms’ After Consuming Underdone Bear Meat”

    I like meat rare but bear meat should be boiled before you put it on a grill to get rid of a fatty taste.

    I don’t hunt bear. PA issues about 220,000 bear licenses a year but only about 3,500 get a bear, so like 98.5% don’t get a bear. I don’t like the odds.

    So I get bear meat from the lucky 1.5% that actually bag one. Sue me.

    Zzzzzz…. what a bunch of crap.

    I don’t care what the “form of Mass” is, and that of course is not what I was talking about.

    I also never rendered any opinion on “Church doctrine and practice”.

    If someone asked me, I would say priests should be allowed to marry, so I am hardly a defender of conservative church doctrine.

    My point is that the Pope is a Communist who thinks capitalism needs to be destroyed as the root of all evil and the world’s economy should be destroyed in favor of a climate change agenda. I think the Pope’s woke agenda is destructive to the church because it is only supported by people who ultimately hate religion and the Catholic church.

    Of course, Bitter knows all this, but he wants to be intellectually dishonest to paint me as someone giving opinions on church doctrine, a baldfaced lie.

    I thought it was positive that there seems to be a backlash against the Pope’s far left political agenda, but even that seems to trigger Bitter.

    Finally, the statement “I never made excuses for the Pope’s political statements” is another lie.

    By pretending to not understand what my point is, you are doing exactly that.

  20. Speaking of church practices…

    “Police are investigating an incident that unfolded at a Catholic church on Sunday where a priest allegedly bit a churchgoer because she was trying to receive the Holy Communion in an improper way, according to the St. Cloud Police Department. 

    The alleged incident took place at St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church and School in St. Cloud during Sunday’s noon Mass. The churchgoer reported the alleged battery to police later that afternoon. 

    Police have filed an Affidavit of Prosecution Summary against the priest, which will be forwarded to the State Attorney’s Office for review. No arrests have been made in this incident. 

    Oh, but it gets better. The woman had come to an earlier Mass, where the priest apparently was suspicious of her intent when she tried to take the wafer “like she was taking a cookie,” the priest told police. She came back at the next Mass to try again, and the priest offered to place the Eucharist on her tongue. At that point, the woman acted as though she was in the self-serve lane at the local Country Kitchen Buffet:

    That’s when the woman allegedly pushed him and aggressively grabbed the bowl that contained the Communion wafers in an attempt to receive Holy Communion herself, the priest told police. 

    This act was something the priest considered to be sacrilegious, so he bit her, he told police.”

  44. Jason,

    I just visited the Mission in Santa Barbara this morning. Too late for Mass (the bells were ringing as we pulled up, and by the time we found parking and got the kids walked over, it was halfway done). We contented ourselves to walk the limited free the grounds and the gift shop. They seemed more concerned with the Italian festival going on (including ridiculously overpriced food and street art exhorting me to read banned books; Beloved by Toni Morrison, perhaps?), and rushed the parishioners out at the end of Mass to get a tour group started (so I couldn’t take my son into the chapel for a prayer to our departed family members). I guess St. Peter’s must be the same; when a church becomes a tourist attraction, the faithful take second place.

    But what really got me was the info board with a message from the Franciscans to honor Dope Frank’s second encyclical directing us to honor his commitment to social justice and caring for “our common home” ie climate justice. Their philosophy is that St. Francis cared for the animals and his gardens, so we must follow in his footsteps and sign up with Greenpeace or something like that.

    I confess that Orthodoxy is looking more appealing by the day, though they have their share of Pinkos as well.

    Bitter is full of crap about Bob Dylan. His attempt to paint Dylan as some kind of leftist radical is about 60 years out of date.

    “When The Times They Are A-Changin’ album came out in January 1964, the 22 year old from Minnesota found himself crowned as the laureate of a social movement, hailed as “the voice of a generation”.

    In the meantime, however, Dylan had decided that this was not what he wanted to be. The new Woody Guthrie was mutating into something else – something that made some of his early acolytes uncomfortable. For Dylan is not only the most renowned protest singer of his era but also its most renowned renegade. In mid-1964, he explained to critic Nat Hentoff: “Me, I don’t want to write for people anymore – you know, be a spokesman. From now on, I want to write from inside me …I’m not part of no movement… I just can’t make it with any organisation…”

    Alarmed by the discovery of authoritarianism at the heart of the movement for liberation (and within himself), he rebels against the left’s self-righteousness. He pours bile on the “self-ordained professor/ Too serious to fool”. He scorns what he sees as the dead culture of political activism: “memorising politics/ Of ancient history”.

    ‘Equality, I spoke the word, as if a wedding vow, but I was so much older then, I’m younger than that now.’

    This refrain – a recantation in every sense of the word – must be one of the most lyrical expressions of political apostasy ever penned. Ex-radicals usually ascribe their evolution to the inevitable giving-way of rebellious youth to responsible maturity. Dylan reversed the polarity. For him, the retreat from politics was a retreat from stale categories and second-hand attitudes. The refrain encapsulates the movement from the pretence of knowing it all to the confession of knowing nothing.”

    Dylan hasn’t been a radical leftist in decades. But Bitter is still making excuses for Springsteen, a Marxist ideologue who is still doing concerts for Biden and preaching the dictatorship of the proletariat.

    Springsteen said this in 2020. Maybe if Trump wins he can move to his paradise of North Korea.

    “If Trump is reelected — which he will not be; I’m predicting right now he’s gonna lose — if by some happenstance he should be, I’ll see you on the next plane,” Springsteen said,.
