This 'Take Me To Church' singer gets a surprise when a church choir joins in singing the song!

Police files, historical documents show link between Catholic hierarchy and residential schools

Proof positive that the CBC has no idea how the Catholic Church is structured as they claim that these documents 'prove' that the Vatican is indeed responsible for the abuses committed in the Residential Schools. Yes, some of these documents were indeed sent to Rome, but to the head of the Oblate Order. Just because a church organization has its head office in Rome doesn't mean that it's not independent from the offices of the Vatican! It's like saying that the government in Toronto would be aware of what's happening in a branch of an organization just because it is headquartered in the same city. Just because something is sent to the head of the Oblate order does not mean that members of the hierarchy in the Vatican would be aware of its existence let alone its contents. These documents do not prove what the author of this article seems to think it does. Police files, historical documents show link between Catholic hierarchy and residential schools | CBC News

Alfie Evans ‘breathing unaided’ after life support removed

Alfie Evans ‘breathing unaided’ after his life support removed - and still, the UK courts refuse to let the parents take him to another hospital that is willing to try and treat the child's underlying medical condition. Why? What possible harm is there in letting little Alfie be transferred to the hospital in Italy which has offered to treat him? If they fail to succeed in curing him, then he will die as assuredly as he will in England. But if they succeed, then not only Alfie and his family wins a medical miracle, so will any future children who might be afflicted with a similar illness. What is the upside in refusing his parents this request when measured against such positive possible outcomes? I very honestly cannot fathom why the British courts are ruling the way that they are in these children's cases. It makes no sense to me. It would be one thing if we were talking about an adult who left instructions (or told more than one or two people) that they wouldn't want s

Author: Pope Francis Is a ‘Mystic’ Trying to Solve Left-Right Dichotomy in the Church

I believe that Pope Francis started out trying to bridge the gap between progressives and conservatives within the Church, but he has failed miserably. Now he seems more intent on punishing and maligning conservatives while promoting a liberal agenda that may wreak tremendous damage on the Church if it puts us on the same path that vitiated the mainline Protestant churches when they tried to modernize their beliefs to make them more harmonious and palatable to modern sensibilities over the past 40 years.

'Schryer 150' made for a very lucky Friday the 13th (20 photos)

Louis Schryer is my next door neighbor at my cottage. As a result, I often get to listen to many 'riverside' performances by Louis and his musical family and friends. This must have been a great concert! Wish I could have been there in the Sault for this one! 'Schryer 150' made for a very lucky Friday the 13th (20 photos) - SooToday.com
