A group of clergy and lay scholars from around the world have taken the very rare step of presenting Pope Francis with a formal filial correction, accusing him of upholding seven heretical positions about “marriage, the moral life, and the reception of the sacraments” which, they say, has “caused these heretical opinions to spread in the Catholic Church.”
The signatories stress they are not accusing the Pope of formal heresy (when a person departs from the faith by doubting or denying some revealed truth with a full choice of the will), and are making “no judgment about Pope Francis’s culpability in propagating the seven heresies” as it is “not their task to judge about whether the sin of heresy has been committed.”
The 25 page letter was delivered to the Holy Father at his Santa Marta residence on Aug. 11. This is the first filial correction of a reigning Pontiff since Pope John XXII was admonished in 1333 for teaching that the souls in heaven wouldn’t see God completely until after the Last Judgment, a heresy he recanted on his deathbed.
After obsessing for months on the nothingburger Russia story, the news networks have again showed their absurdly biased faces in their treatment of the corruption trial of Democrat Senator Bob Menendez.
“For contrast, on just one day (September 18), CNN spent more than 45 minutes analyzing former White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer’s 60-second appearance at the Emmy Awards ceremony the night before. And that total doesn’t include all of CNN’s coverage of the Emmys, just the portions specifically about Spicer.”
It’s David vs. Goliath; the republican establishment has pumped $30 million into the primary race between corrupt, crooked-as-a-dog’s-hind-leg Luther Strange, and Judge Roy Moore, who lost his job for standing up for his faith and refusing to remove the Ten Commandments from his courtroom. It has come down to a contest between Steve Bannon and Donald Trump who, inexplicably, has backed McConnell’s choice, Strange. Time will tell.
Roy Moore Maintains Lead in Polls Despite Trump Rally for Opponent Luther Strange The data analytics group Optimus, which conducted a poll on Friday and Saturday, has Moore at 55.4 percent versus Strange at 44.6 percent. An Emerson College Polling Society survey found its results to be similar, with Moore at 50 percent versus Strange at 40 percent.
Whoa: Roy Moore 57, Luther Strange 41 in new Alabama GOP Senate poll My guess was that Moore will win tomorrow night by eight points despite the fact that he’s led by more in various polls of the Alabama runoff. If Trafalgar’s right, the actual margin will be double that. It’ll be a blowout and an embarrassing rebuke to Trump, who not only couldn’t get his guy over the finish line after a rally in Huntsville but couldn’t get him within 15 points of victory. https://hotair.com/archives/2017/09/25/whoa-roy-moore-57-luther-strange-41-new-alabama-gop-senate-poll/
Trump throws McConnell under the bus on Alabama radio… CNN – “As you know, Mitch is not, polling-wise, the most popular guy in this country,” Trump said. “They like to label (Strange) because he happened to be there for a number of months in the Senate, so they like to label him as Mitch’s best friend but he’s not. He hardly even knows him. He’ll be fighting Mitch.”
While Alabama Attorney General, Luther Strange Did Nothing to Stop Swamp Deal to Pay Bob Corker $3 Million Senator Bob Corker (R-TN) is set to receive more than $3 million in direct payments from the City of Mobile from sales taxes paid at stores in McGowin Park by Alabama consumers as part of a controversial and unprecedented sweetheart deal that Senator Luther Strange (R-AL) did nothing to stop as Attorney General of Alabama when the deal was arranged in 2013 and 2014 by a law firm whose partners and political action committee contributed $28,000 to his Senate campaign in 2017. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/09/25/while-alabama-attorney-general-luther-strange-did-nothing-to-stop-swamp-deal-to-pay-bob-corker-3-million/

Weiner Gets Hard Time — 21 Months For ‘Sexting’ Minor Anthony Weiner, the former congressman and notorious sexual deviant whose aberrant behavior may have helped cost Hillary Clinton the presidency, was sentenced Monday to 21 months in federal prison for exchanging lewd photos with a minor.
A tearful Weiner told U.S. District Judge Denise Cote that the he had found his rock bottom.
Weiner’s lawyers hoped he would get off with probation, arguing he needs therapy under medical and psychological supervision. http://dailycaller.com/2017/09/25/weiner-gets-hard-time-21-months-for-sexting-minor/
McCain: Trump hasn’t apologized for POW crack HE’S MAKING THE WHOLE COUNTRY SUFFER BECAUSE TRUMP WON’T KISS HIS ASS

THE LONG-AWAITED ALABAMA PRIMARY IS TOMORROW
Emerson Poll: Judge Roy Moore Holds 10-Point Lead over Luther Strange in Alabama Senate Race That lead, found in the Emerson College Polling Society poll, is down from 14 points from the last Emerson poll taken at the beginning of the month, as undecided voters appear to be breaking for Strange. But the society believes it unlikely to be enough to carry Strange to victory. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/09/24/emerson-poll-judge-roy-moore-holds-ten-point-lead-luther-strange-alabama-senate-race/
IF THE NEXT TWO TRUMP STATEMENTS ARE CONFUSING TO YOU, YOU’RE NOT ALONE
Trump: Dems will win Alabama Senate seat if Moore wins primary “Ray will have a hard time. If Luther wins, the Democrats will hardly fight. If Ray wins, [Democrats] will pour in $30 million,” he said, repeatedly referring to Moore by the wrong name.
When host Rick Burgess pointed out that Moore’s name is Roy, Trump responded that it’s “not a good sign” if the president doesn’t know his name.
NEVER MIND WHAT HE JUST SAID
Donald Trump: I’ll Be ‘Campaigning Like Hell’ for Roy Moore If He Beats Luther Strange But Trump stood by his endorsement of Strange, saying that the McConnell backed candidate was being “unfairly labeled” as “best friends of Mitch McConnell.”
“He doesn’t even know Mitch, I mean he met him a few months ago when he came to Washington, he got to know him a little bit, but he virtually doesn’t even know him,” Trump said. “You know politics is a dirty business, you guys might have figured that out by now.” http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/09/25/donald-trump-ill-be-campaigning-like-hell-for-roy-moore-if-he-beats-luther-strange/

Steelers Coach Annoyed That Decorated Army Veteran Left Team to Stand for Anthem Villanueva is a decorated ex-Army Ranger who served three tours in Afghanistan, earning a Bronze Star for his valorous service. With an emotional national debate swirling, his team had collectively decided not to enter the field of play until after the anthem was over, a move that head coach Mike Tomlin framed as an effort to side-step the politically-fraught controversy.

NFL fans looking to outfit themselves in honor of the only Pittsburgh Steeler to take the field for the national anthem ahead of yesterday’s game against the Chicago Bears better hurry: Alejandro Villanueva jerseys are selling out fast and stock is dwindling.
While surfing the interwebs looking for things worth posting here, every now and again I come across some strange stuff. I’m trying to put a post together that has nothing to do with a bunch of spoiled millionaires thinking they’re being “rebels” by taking a knee during the national anthem. It’s all driven by the media and the Marxist wannabes and I’m a little sick of it. Anyway,here’s some candidates for the Darwin Award that goes to those begging to be removed from the gene pool.

Democrats Eagerly Hail It As A Sign….Just Not Sure What
Yesterday, Hillary Clinton tweeted out a video that left me slack-jawed in disbelief.
You have to watch it.
Because, honey, it is horrifying.
Big Fur Hat from iotwreport.com came up with this:
Neither am I. It’s noon as I’m writing this and my team’s game has just started. All anybody has talked about the last two days is Trump commenting somebody should fire these overpaid thugs, and of course the entire left has jumped all over him. It started with Colon Crappernuts, who staged his own little protest and, like the sheep they are, the rest of the homeys have followed. The billionaire owners have either sided with the players or are too weak kneed to speak out.
It Begins: Democrat Calls on All Football Players to Disrespect US Flag and Kneel During Anthem
The crowd went wild after Trump said, “Wouldn’t you love to see one of the NFL owners, when someone disrespects our flag, to say ‘get that son of b*tch off the field right now! Out! He’s fired! He’s fired!”
The crowd erupted into cheers and started chanting, “USA! USA! USA!”
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell’s ironic response to Trump backfires; shows he is indeed a coward
In a strong presumptive response to President Trump’s comments Friday night about the cowardliness of NFL owners who won’t stand up to protesting players, the NFL isn’t holding anything back.
Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement on Saturday that the comments were divisive and showed an “unfortunate” lack of respect for the organization. http://www.bizpacreview.com/2017/09/23/nfl-commissioner-roger-goodells-ironic-response-trump-backfires-shows-indeed-coward-539573
Los Feliz Daycare(motto: “We do not accept immunized children”) is an ultra-progressive child care center in an unspecified affluent neighborhood on the left coast. Some recent tweets:
Recent memory does not recall any politician who has so repeatedly taken sadistic delight in betraying the party he claims to be a member of as does the bitter, soulless lizard from the illegal alien expressway known as Arizona, John McCain. I cannot recall a single time — not ONE — when he voted with the republicans on any issue that really counted.
McCain May Have Killed Republicans’ Last Chance To Repeal Obamacare “I cannot in good conscience vote for the Graham-Cassidy proposal. I believe we could do better working together, Republicans and Democrats, and have not yet really tried,” he said in a statement Friday.
The Arizona senator has been adamant all week that any major health care bill needs to go through regular order, which forces a bill to get 60 “yes” votes and provides Democrats with the opportunity to filibuster. http://dailycaller.com/2017/09/22/mccain-may-have-killed-republicans-last-chance-to-repeal-obamacare/
AS KEITH KOFFLER OPINED:
And blah blah blah blah blah. Note the contradiction in the last sentence. Democrats, very likely thanks to McCain, will not have had short-lived success.
There is no way that McCain would normally be a “no” vote on this. Here is the statement he should have given:
I’m a mad as hell that Donald Trump said mean things about my capture and imprisonment by the North Vietnamese, and now I have my revenge.

Union President DeMaurice Smith acknowledged in his statement that “the peaceful demonstrations by some of our players” haven’t been universally supported, but “have generated a wide array of responses.”

Activists: ‘Soul of city’ at stake in Obama library agreement flap PERHAPS A HANDFUL OF THE MILLIONS WHO BLINDLY VOTE BASED ON RACE HAVE COME TO REALIZE THEY USE THEIR LOYALTY AS A MEANS TO AN END. IN REALITY THEY PLAY THE MASSES FOR THE IGNORANT SHEEP THAT THEY ARE.
Last week, at the foundation’s community meeting, President Barack Obama himself told residents that he would not sign a benefits agreement, which would put into writing the promises the foundation has made thus far on bringing jobs, economic development and resources to the South Side.
