California strikes again

Couple ordered to stop holding Bible Study at home

People have scoffed saying that there is no persecution of Christians in this country. They claimed that trying to remove public displays of 10 Commandments and Nativity scenes aren't persecution. Maybe, maybe not, but anybody cannot deny that this would qualify, as well as Connecticut's attempt to seize control of the Catholic Church.

Home

My parents and I returned home from Iowa last night. We flew to Iowa to attend my cousin's wedding. I'll post more about the trip later today or tomorrow.

How long until this becomes commonplace in the U.S.?

Former rector passes away

Msgr. William Kerr, former rector of the Co-Cathedral of St. Thomas More (where I'm a parishioner), passed away today. On May 3, he had a stroke after giving his homily and had been in critical condition since then. He was rector from 1971 until 1984. He was currently the director of Florida State University Claude Pepper Center.

Please keep the parish in your thoughts and prayers.

Star Trek review

Saw it this past weekend, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. There are only a couple of things I didn't really like, but weren't major problems.

Delay

I apologize for the delay in any updates. I'll try and post more often whenever I feel the need to post. :)

Red Mass

Last night was the Red Mass at the Co-Cathedral of St. Thomas More. It was concelebrated by all the bishops of Florida, with Bishop Dewane, the bishop of Venice, giving the homily. His homily centered on the importance of upholding the Moral law, even if it comes into conflict with secular law. This homily came at an important time when it seems that the secular world is increasing its attack on the Church, especially with the proposed unconstitutional bill in Connecticut.
