Bury the dead

Bury the dead is the seventh in the traditional Catholic list of Corporal Works of Mercy.

  • The Corporal Works of Mercy: To feed the hungry; To give drink to the thirsty; To clothe the naked; To harbour the harbourless (offer hospitality to the homeless); To visit the sick (care for the sick); To ransom the captive (visit the imprisoned); To bury the dead.
  • The Spiritual Works of Mercy: To instruct the ignorant; To counsel the doubtful; To admonish sinners; To bear wrongs patiently; To forgive offenses willingly; To comfort the afflicted (sorrowful); To pray for the living and the dead.

Dorothy Day and Peter Maurin based their Catholic Worker Movement on living out these precepts.

Bury the dead is based on this passage from the Book of Tobit:

In the days of Shalmaneser I had performed many charitable deeds for my kindred, members of my people. I would give my bread to the hungry and clothing to the naked. If I saw one of my people who had died and been thrown behind the wall of Nineveh, I used to bury him. Sennacherib returned from Judea, having fled during the days of the judgment enacted against him by the King of Heaven because of the blasphemies he had uttered; whomever he killed I buried. For in his rage he killed many Israelites, but I used to take their bodies away by stealth and bury them. So when Sennacherib looked for them, he could not find them. But a certain Ninevite went and informed the king about me, that I was burying them, and I went into hiding. When I realized that the king knew about me and that I was being hunted to be put to death, I became afraid and took flight. All my property was confiscated; I was left with nothing. All that I had was taken to the king’s palace, except for my wife Anna and my son Tobiah. (Tobit 1:16-20)

Burying the dead WITH RESPECT is God’s work. 

Whatever God wants us to do, SATAN PERVERTS.

The myth of the bloody hanger

1959 Hang up the hangers

“In 1957, there were only 260 deaths in the whole country attributed to abortions of any kind.”

“Illegal Abortion as a Public Health Problem” by Dr. Mary Calderone.

Am J Public Health Nations Health. Jul 1960; 50(7): 948–954.

More abortuary closings

Clump of cells

Two surgical abortion clinics in Texas and one in Florida are CLOSING PERMANENTLY!

  • Closing permanently in TEXAS: Two Whole Women’s Health clinics (McAllen and Beaumont) that cannot meet minimum safety requirements required by Texas law.
  • Closing permanently in FLORIDA: North Florida Women’s Health & Counseling Service (Tallahassee), apparently due to a lack of physicians able and willing to do abortions.

“We are on track to see another great year. Every time an abortion clinic closes, lives are saved because women have a greater opportunity to seek other means of coping with the challenges they face. This is great news for women and their babies,” said Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue.

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow bemoaned closings, calling abortionists “heroes.” Is she out of her teeny tiny mind?

  • A HERO is someone who risks his own life and safety to protect the weak and defend the helpless.
  • An ABORTIONIST murders helpless unborn children for profit.

The indisputable Pro-Choice argument

Progressivism

In his recent blog “I am afraid of this indisputable pro-choice argument”, Matt Walsh responds to an email that claims to blow his Pro-Life position out of the water.

Rachel emailed to him, “If you had the guts or the brains you’d try to respond to the most important abortion rights argument … bodily autonomy or bodily integrity. This means that we have the final jurisdiction over our own bodies. … A fetus must survive on a woman’s body so the woman has a right to withdrawal her consent and her body at any time. This is the pro-choice argument that no anti-choice fanatic … especially one as stubborn and simpleminded as you … could ever possibly dispute.”

Matt responds with ten points that are so logical and clear, I must only refer you to the original. To whet your appetite, here is a quick sample of his snarky wit and his ten talking points:

Dear Rachel,

You’re right. You win. I have no response. I can’t think of any reason why you’re wrong about any of the points you raised.

Well, I can’t think of any reason — except for, like, ten reasons.

  1. Relationships are relevant.
  2. Situations are relevant.
  3. Your own argument defeats itself.
  4. Natural order matters.
  5. Withdrawing life support is nothing like actively killing a healthy unborn child.
  6. You must allow pregnant women to do whatever they please, no matter how it may harm her unborn child.
  7. You must allow abortion at every stage of development.
  8. You must allow people to abandon or murder any child that makes unpleasant demands on them.
  9. You must allow a range of other offensive and dangerous behaviors, like men who want to masturbate in front of chilren at a playground.
  10. We are not autonomous beings. We live in a complex society that requires us to use our bodies in many ways. If you concede that we ought to be expected or even required to do certain things, then you are placing limits on our bodily autonomy.

If you place limits on our bodily autonomy, then you are admitting that limits can be placed on our bodily autonomy. Personally, I think that abortion goes well beyond the limits on bodily autonomy, for all of the reasons I’ve previously stipulated.

So PROUD of their stance, they’ll BULLY you for advertising it

During the last two weeks, the LifeNews website has brought international attention to the link between the Girl Scouts and its support for Pro-Abortion groups and individuals and to the national boycott of Girl Scouts cookies sponsored by Pro-Life groups.

The other day, Brian Crawford, an executive with Girl Scouts USA, wrote a nasty letter to LifeNews demanding they stop lying and stating a date by which LifeNews must guarantee the Girl Scouts it “will comply with our demand.”

(Brian? GSUSA has guys at the helm? I thought this group was all about promoting FEMALE leadership. Whatev. Read more about what Brian does for GSUSA below.)

Typical liberal, right? So proud of their Progressive position that when someone points it out to the sheeple, their natural response is to kill the messenger.

GS curriculum Pro Abort not Pro Life

BUT the links between the Girl Scouts and abortion advocacy are many and long-standing.

  • At the international level, World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS) frequently works alongside International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) to advocate for abortion on demand for youth.
  • At the national level, Girls Scouts USA (GSUSA) is one of 40 organizations in the Coalition for Adolescent Girls which specifically advocates for abortion. GSUSA also generously funds WAGGGS with $1.5 million annually.
  • At the local and state level, Girl Scout groups refer girls to abortion providers and help to promote and fund abortion providers and abortion rights advocacy groups.
  • The official Girl Scout curriculum holds up abortion rights activists as role models for girls. E.g., Margaret Sanger, Gloria Steinem, Betty Friedan, Geraldine Ferraro.
  • The Girl Scout curriculum recommends many Pro-Abortion organizations, but not a single Pro-life organization. The curriculum also includes sex education materials like “Healthy, Happy and Hot” which includes statements such as: “Some people have sex when they have been drinking or using drugs. That is your choice.” and “There is no right or wrong way to have sex. Just have fun, explore and be yourself!”
  • Local GS councils have specific partnership programs with Planned Parenthood and other abortion advocacy groups. E.g., Girl Scouts of Western New York (GSWNY) partners with Planned Parenthood in its “Sister to Sister” project.
  • Local GS councils award and honor Pro-Abortion politicians and abortion rights advocates. E.g., Wendy Davis is a Texas Woman of Distinction and one of the women GSUSA helped promote for 2013 Women of the Year.
  • The new national GS spokeswoman is the former spokeswoman for a Pro-Abortion organization.

ABOUT THE COOKIES

Cookie sales are a MAJOR source of income for GSUSA, which makes millions of dollars each year through licensing fees paid by the company that bakes Girl Scout cookies. The baker, of course, builds that cost into the wholesale price of the cookies the girls buy to sell door-to-door.

Cookie sales are the MAIN source of income for the 315 Girl Scout councils in the United States. In a national survey, seventeen councils reported they did have a relationship with Planned Parenthood and its affiliates, while 49 reported they did not have such a relationship. The other 249 refused to disclose one way or the other.

Cookies sales are likely the ONLY source of income for the troops of the girls who go door-to-door selling. They get to keep about 15%. Maybe it would be more to the point to offer to help fund a local troop activity directly. It would certainly involve fewer calories.

Brian Crawford’s JOB at GSUSA is to watchdog “Trademarks and Licensing” for the Girl Scouts of America. Besides writing very firm letters to web sites that expose the Girl Scouts’ connection to the Progressive’s Sluts and Abortion agenda, he also scours eBay and other sites for any sniff of anybody selling or reselling anything Girl Scout without his permission. I’m thinking this means, “Without giving GSUSA their cut.” Among other things, he’s earned his keep for GSUSA by preventing the willy nilly selling of cookies on YouTube by actual Girl Scouts, as well as forced eBay to ban all selling of unopened cookies and/or ANY type of genuine GS memorabilia. Nice, Brian. Real nice.

As it was in the days of Noah

When the LORD saw how great the wickedness of human beings was on earth, and how every desire that their heart conceived was always nothing but evil, … the LORD said: I will wipe out from the earth the human beings I have created…. But Noah found favor with the LORD. ~Genesis 6:5-8

2014_02 PP valentines

  • The president of Planned Parenthood’s tweeted a message that the women of America need abortions for Valentine’s Day
  • The Maryland Planned Parenthood tweeted a photo of a condom inside a wedding box with the message, “Will you be my birth control?”
  • A 19-year-old art student has announced he will lose his virginity in a live performance at an art gallery on April 2, 2014 in London.
  • Belgium has legalized child euthanasia. There is no age limitation.
  • Time magazine gave its cover story to a new British study claims that child-free couples have happier relationships.
  • The Huffington Post and The Daily Beast published articles about how babies are “alien-parasites” and how people have children only to glorify their own egos. Their conclusion? Child-free is the choice of the most aware and responsible beings on the planet.
  • Officials found a dead newborn, with umbilical cord still attached, lying on the side of a highway in Washington state.
  • University of Arizona is requiring students to participate in an event called the “Condom Olympics.”
  • The media is ignoring the latest woman killed by Planned Parenthood during a legal abortion. Her family was just awarded $2 Million.
  • Pro-Abortion students vandalized Pro-Life signs … again … as usual. Just another “not newsworthy” event for the media.

Why am I depressing you with this degrading information? Because I want you to get ready for the Rapture.  All the signs point to Jesus coming again in the clouds very, very soon.

Jesus said, “For as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. … They did not know until the flood came and carried them all away. So will it be [also] at the coming of the Son of Man. Two men will be out in the field; one will be taken, and one will be left. Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken, and one will be left. Therefore, stay awake! For you do not know on which day your Lord will come.” Matthew 24:37-42

Why have an abortion? Because babies are hard.

Yup. That’s what this woman says … in all seriousness. The kid might have some kind of PROBLEM, like colic or a learning disability, so yeah, way better to slaughter it before it gets in the way of your selfish “It’s All About Me!” lifestyle.

Of course, as she does NOT mention, if you are not ready to be a parent, there is always adoption. But whoa, STRETCH MARKS. Can’t have that. Right? I mean LEFT … cuz this is THE defining issue in politics.

You cannot make this stuff up

Bill Clinton just received Woman’s Day’s Red Dress award for his contributions to women’s heart health.

I. Kid. You. Not.

2014_02 Clinton deserves BLUE dress award

Another piece of evidence (as if we needed any) that the ONLY sin in the Leftist moral code is a failure to support abortion and big government.

That Pharisee Obama

When I read my Gospel passage for today, I was reminded of Candidate Obama at Saddleback Church in the summer of 2008.

And when he entered the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came up to him as he was teaching, and said, “By what authority are you doing these things, and who gave you this authority?”

Jesus answered them, “I also will ask you a question; and if you tell me the answer, then I also will tell you by what authority I do these things. The baptism of John, where was it from? From heaven or from men?”

And they argued with one another, “If we say, From heaven,’ he will say to us, Why then did you not believe him?’ But if we say, From men,’ we are afraid of the multitude; for all hold that John was a prophet.”

So they answered Jesus, “We do not know.”

Matthew 21:23-27

At Saddleback Church, Candidate Obama was asked, “At what point does a baby get human rights?”

He had the same problem the Pharisees did. And he responded in the same nonsensical way.

A few weeks later, he compounded his nonsense by saying he thinks the scientific question of the beginning of human life is a theological one that he can’t answer. But he was not asked for either a scientific or a theological answer. He was asked for his OPINION about when human babies should begin to be protected under the law as members of “We the People” human persons.

Of course, the Pharisees had an OPINION about John the Baptist. They had an opinion on every important religious issue of the day. They just didn’t want to come right out and say what it was because they were cowards.

Ditto Obama. And he had expressed his opinion clearly long before 2008. For example, in law school, he wrote a paper defending unlimited abortion; then, in the Illinois Senate, he killed a bill to provide medical and comfort care to live-born survivors of abortion.

Since he’s been in the Oval Office, he has repeatedly used his famous pen to block Pro-Life laws and attack Pro-Life Americans. In particular, he has personally sent federal tax dollars to Planned Parenthood in States that had voted to fund women’s clinics that do NOT do abortions.
