We, too, profess our total acceptance of the infallible …

Last night Charisma News, our favorite one-stop shop for anti-witchcraft tutorials, published a lengthy last-minute how-to on stopping these hurricanes which are sent by God to punish us. The piece is authored by “messianic rabbi” Curt Landry. An excerpt: If we don’t understand the cause and effect of nature with God, and our responsibilities with the dominion that we have …

Hemant Mehta reports at the Friendly Atheist: For some reason, Christian “Prophetess” Kat Kerr thinks she can stop Hurricane Irma by “taking authority over it” and using her scepter to crush the weather. Because Jesus. “I make a ruling that storm will leave this area, will leave the coast. I will not tolerate its presence anywhere on the coast of …

The Washington Post reports: The bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Springfield, Ill., is calling on priests there to deny Holy Communion and even funeral rites to people in same-sex unions unless they show “some signs of repentance” for their relationships before death.

Yahoo News reports: Pope Francis on Friday advised priests who hear troubled confessions from parishioners to not hesitate to call on the services of an exorcist.

“This week pop icon George Michael passed away at age 53, Star Wars actress Carrie Fisher died at 60, and award winning Watership Down author Richard Adams died at the age of 96. From the unknown to the most well-known, we all have something in common—death. Our time on earth is brief—the Bible says like ‘a vapor.’ And each of …

Earlier this month Cardinal Roger Mahony was “relieved of his duties” for his role in covering up the still-widening molestation scandal that is shredding the Archdiocese of Los Angeles.  Yesterday Mahoney announced on his blog that it’s now clear to him that Jesus wants him to be humiliated. Given all of the storms that have surrounded me and the Archdiocese …

“We need to remember that in the time leading up to the Flood what the rabbis teach about the last straw for God before He brought the Flood was when they started writing wedding songs to homosexual marriage and Jesus said that you’ll know the End Times because it will be like the days of Noah. There’s never been a …

“So in this, my final column, I say my farewell to optimism and my hello to hope. What is the difference? Optimism is a prediction; hope is a virtue. My hope rests on this: The truths to which I’ve dedicated my life, both professionally and personally, are too important to ignore, too foundational to be abandoned, too much a part …

“Past generations have gathered in this cathedral on Christmas night amid many shadows which seemed to obscure the future for them. We think of the ideologies of the past century, Communism and Nazism, which in living memory threatened to shape and distort the whole future of humanity. These inhuman ideologies would each challenge in the name of progress the received …

“There is also a need to acknowledge and promote the natural structure of marriage as the union of a man and a woman in the face of attempts to make it juridically equivalent to radically different types of union. Such attempts actually harm and help to destabilize marriage, obscuring its specific nature and its indispensable role in society. These principles …

Via the Deseret News: With a clear invitation to gay Mormons to “stay with us,” The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints today launched a new website aimed at providing “greater sensitivity and better understanding” among Latter-day Saints with regards to same-sex attraction.  “When people have those (same-sex) desires and attractions our attitude is, ‘stay with us,’” said Elder …

Pope Palpatine has issued a book declaring that the birth of Jeebus is off by several years. “The calculation of the beginning of our calendar – based on the birth of Jesus – was made by Dionysius Exiguus, who made a mistake in his calculations by several years,” the Pope writes in the book, which went on sale around the …

“There will be serious consequences for America as a result of this growing apostasy. I believe we are already feeling them. It’s praiseworthy that voters in 32 out of 32 states have rejected this invention of the pseudo-intellectual cultural elite. But, it will take more than that to prevent God’s wrath on a nation flirting with arrogant, defiant rejection of …

Anthony is the patron saint of douchebag closet cases. Obvs!

“There’s a passage that I love in Romans 1 – I don’t love what the topic is – but it talks about homosexuality and it says that they will receive in their bodies the penalties of their behavior. And the Bible again, it’s right every time, and studies keep proving that and that’s why AIDS has been something they haven’t …

The Vatican’s official liaison to Britain has called for all religions to put aside their differences in superstitions in order to unite in battle against the civil equality of gay people. Addressing English and Welsh bishops at their plenary meeting in Leeds, Archbishop Mennini, warned them they faced a “lengthy and probably difficult campaign”. “I wonder if we shouldn’t ask …

“In a sign of their growing intolerance of people who hold positions other than those of the Homosexual Cultural Revolution, the Media Watchdog Organization which calls itself GLAAD has issued a blacklist of commentators. The effort recruits likeminded parties to ‘spy’. They are asked to send reports in to GLAAD if these commentators are featured in local media. GLAAD will …
