Montreal Euthanasia Symposium: Theory and Reality about Euthanasia
"Quebec has the only law in the world which attempts to coerce doctors to refer patients for euthanasia. Such pointless authoritarianism, of which we already had a taste in September, is a dangerous precedent which must be formally rejected."Read what else these Quebec doctors have to say about the impending euthanasia law which comes into force on December 10th of this year. Just click on the link below:

The Pope’s Mighty Fortress - WSJ
"In George Weigel, John Paul found a biographer who combines the skills of a historian, a theologian and a journalist. Mr. Weigel’s “Witness to Hope” (1999) appeared during the late pope’s lifetime and was hailed as a masterpiece worthy of its subject. This was followed by a sequel, “The End and the Beginning,” published in 2010, five years after John Paul’s death. Both these works are emphatically biographical, sympathetic but never sycophantic.
Mr. Weigel’s “City of Saints” belongs to a different genre. The clue is in the subtitle: “A Pilgrimage to John Paul II’s Kraków.” The author wants to take readers on a journey in the papal footsteps and through the scenes of his clerical life. It is a guide to the stations on John Paul’s path and seeks to inspire us with a sense of awe that one good man could achieve so much."

Why are Catholics so afraid of change? - CNN.com
Why do some Catholics prefer the colour red? Or don't like Latin? Or are afraid of superstitions? The answer is 'just because they are people!' Catholics are a diverse lot. Some like change; others prefer stability. It says nothing about either group other than that they have personal preferences. So why is Fr. James Martin s.j. (who I usually really like reading) getting vexed over the fact that some Catholics preferred that the recent Synod on the Family calling for a more nuanced and pastoral application of Church doctrine when it comes to issues such as communion for divorced Catholics? I fear it's because he thinks that the synod didn't go far enough in the direction that he presumes is the correct direction. But don't take my opinion as being infallible. Read his article for yourself and come to your own conclusions. After all, there's no reason to be afraid of that!!

Catholic bishops vote to soften stance toward divorcees, but stand firmly against gay marriage | National Post
Why is it that the media is claiming the Church has 'softened' her stance towards divorcees? There is NOTHING new in the Synod's closing document that wasn't part of her pastoral practice before it began. I really am befuddled by this. Anyone understand why the Synod is being presented this way? It seems to me as if it is a way to spin the results so as to paint the Church as being intolerant or abusive toward gay Catholics, putting the Bishops into the worst possible light. One can almost hear the critics saying "You changed the teaching for divorcees. Why not for gays?" But the fact is that NOTHING has changed for either group!!

Special Edition V | Xavier Rynne II | First Things
In this Special Edition of LETTERS FROM THE SYNOD, George Weigel argues the tremendous differences between the Instrumentum Laboris with which Synod-2015 began, and the Final Report just approved by the Fathers, illustrate just how fruitful a path the Synod walked over three sometimes-challenging weeks.

After the synod, can Catholics put Humpty Dumpty together again? | Crux
"Humpty Dumpty"? That's a pretty harsh assessment of the consequences coming from the Synod on the Family. It sure doesn't seem to fit with the reports that I've read and posted throughout the three weeks the Bishops were meeting in Rome.

Synod Fathers Call For Ending “Pre-Cana” in Favor of More Intensive Marriage Preparation | Aleteia.org
While I don't doubt that this may be a good idea, it's going to be a really tough job for parish priests to sell it to engaged couples. I would be surprised if it didn't result in a great number of them choosing to forgo a Catholic marriage ceremony in favour of something 'easier'. Not so sure that this is what the Synod fathers are intending.
Any thoughts on the subject?

Justin Trudeau clarifies that anti-abortion Liberal incumbents would be forced to vote pro-choice | National Post
Proof positive that NO CATHOLIC in good conscience should vote for such a leader. He cannot even keep his word to existing MP's. He lacks the moral character necessary to lead his party let alone our country. I sincerely FEAR what's coming our way if the Liberals return to power under his leadership today.

- Questions about the reception of Holy Communion by the divorced and civilly remarried are not new to Synod-2015. It’s worth recalling what the Church has already said on the matter.

Shutting down part of brain changes views on God, immigrants: study | CTV News
Is this really big news? Isn't it akin to concluding that impairing one's Achilles tendon changes one's ability to jump? It is self-evident that our thoughts, convictions, and beliefs are formulated and held within our brains. So it shouldn't come as a surprise or significant that artificially impairing one part of the brain would change how that 'muscle' functioned.
Perhaps the new worthiness of this story rests in the discovery that the section of the brain that houses our religious belief is the posterior medial frontal cortex - but I would have thought that scientists and doctors had already mapped out the function of the brain's various components already. So this really might just be a 'dog bites man' type of story intended to reduce the phenomenon of belief to nothing more than the electrical functioning of the brain instead of being a divine gift as Christians believe.
What do you think? Or perhaps better said... What do you believe?

Middle-aged couple want to adopt up to three children, but family costs could cripple their finances | Financial Post
The morality that underpins the argument of this article exemplifies the ethos that's led to the demographic bomb that now threatens most Western countries: money and possessions over children and humane care for others. Perhaps it is true that money is the root of all evil. At the very least, Christ knew what he was talking about when he said that what we truly treasure is where our heart will be found.

What Francophones hear when the party leaders speak French | National Post
This story doesn't really fit within the normal parameters of material I post on this blog. But as one who has struggled to become functional (I'm admittedly far from fluent!) in speaking French, I can't help but post an article that includes the phrase "like a drunk performing a voodoo ritual" when describing how our national party leaders speak the language. Suffice it to say, I know how they feel!!
