“Will alter girls lead to women priests?” While I’m sure many in my own parish will disagree with my sentiment on whether or not we should have alter girls I hope they don’t think it will lead to women priests and that there is some eventual progression that will allow it. Below is my response to the question. Alter Girls won’t lead to Women Priests. The term Woman Priest is an oxymoron. Women can’t be priests no more than men can have babies. God didn’t set it up that way. And sense Alter Girls won’t lead to Women Priests I don’t think we should have them. Leave it to the boys please. If we let boys wear nursing bra’s or maternity clothes we’d all say that’s ridiculous because boys can’t have babies, its not how they were made. Yet we let girls be alter servers when they can’t be priests and say there’s nothing wrong with that. Catholics have gone astray in our thinking. God put us here for a specific purpose and we are fooling ourselves if we allow our boys and girls to participate in roles they weren’t meant for, and we do them great disservice when we do. Listen to what the Votex has to say and give it some thought after you get past the initial shock of his comments because the concept is so “Un-American”. My question is how long will our country last under its current trajectory provided the second coming doesn’t happen first? Another 100 years? Another 200 years? I would be interested to hear how long folks think the good old USA can last on its current course. At some point we go bankrupt for sure as I think the cancer in this country is too ingrained into the fabric of the nation to truly remove it and change course. Democracy is a human experiment, Benevolent Dictatorship is God’s ever lasting model. I think I’ll let this post go without a picture. I know many men and women fall to this sin and you won’t hear a peep about it unless maybe your listening to Fr. Corapi, God Bless him. A good way to combat this sin is frequent confession and the regular reading of sacred scripture. Also unplug yourself from those things that lead you to this sin. Give up the internet or have someone setup a filter on your computer, stop your subscription to cable tv, and throw out that romance novel. To form an equitable judgment about the subjects’ moral responsibility and to guide pastoral action, one must take into account the affective immaturity, force of acquired habit, conditions of anxiety, or other psychological or social factors that can lessen, if not even reduce to a minimum, moral culpability. Anne Rice, famous author of vampire stores and even a few on Jesus, evidently posted the following on her Facebook page
Homosexuality is a disordered, disordered-ness does not send you to Hell, actions do. Participating in a homosexual act is what is sinful, not having the disorder. I’m sure it’s difficult for Ms. Rice to imagine her son possibly ending up in Hell because of a disorder, but disorders don’t put you in Hell, sins do, and even then, if one is truly repentant of their sin Christ is there to forgive us in the sacrament of Reconciliation. Truth is truth and affirming someone in their sin does not change the truth or cause a sinful action to be no longer sinful. Just because you can’t understand something doesn’t change the truth of it. Just because person can’t wrap their head around the law of gravity doesn’t make gravity go away. We should pray for Ms. Rice and her son. May we all repent of our sins love one another as Christ loves us. I have posted few of my own words lately, as I’ve been working on a website for www.LifeFrontKC.org which should be complete here in the very near future. But basically there really is no need for me to speak when I’ve found someone who basically says exactly what I’m thinking, and he does so with regularity. I’ll gladly let him speak for me. The currently plan the Bishops are using is not working and has not worked for the past 4 decades. Things ”within” the church are getting worse not better, and if things in the church are getting worse then it probably explains why things outside the church are in completely chaos. It’s time for the rubber to start meeting the road. Nothing is going to change, and America is not going to wake up until a few bad apples get smashed. Bishops we are waiting, start using your authority.
I think professed Christians should request an apology after his round and let Mr. Woods know just how offensive it was to hear him take the Lords name in vain. Even Tiger referred to Jesus Christ as God. Some might says it’s a prophetic slip of the tongue even if it was in vain.
If the church cares to change the rules to allow women they are well within their ability to bind and loose. But until they do shouldn’t we respect the rules that were put in place and come to understand why men are specified in the first place? I do not think Jesus was incapable of washing the feet of women but at Holy Thursday he didn’t and there is a reason why the Church specify’s men are to be selected. We do not select women for the Priesthood, which relates to why men should be selected for the Holy Thursday Mandatum.

Condoms Cause Problems
Are people who think Condoms are a solution to HIV/AIDS really looking at the data? Are they really concerned with the health and well being of the people or Africa or of the world for that matter. Or do they prefer to turn a blind eye to the data so they can think they are “safe” while being sexually promiscuous? Watch and behold the facts. Lastly there is one thing a condom won’t protect for sure, and that is your ever lasting soul.
