Excellent commentary on JPII’s self-mortification

I think when a lot of people heard about Pope John Paul II’s practice of self-mortification, it might have made them feel a bit weird. And it is, understandably, hard for many people these days to understand this kind of practice or it’s easy to mistake it for a kind of masochism. But that would [...]

Highlighting Catholics in New Media

Thumbnail image for Highlighting Catholics in New Media

After some discernment, my blog over at the National Catholic Register is going to be primarily about New Media now. Which I am very excited about.
Today I highlighted SQPN and I plan to do the same with other Catholic new media in the future. In fact, I am planning on showcasing and helping promote something [...]

Dare to make this a radical Lent

A friend of mine (Yong Oh of Shepherd’s Cafe) shared this wonderful Lenten letter from Fr. Agustino, CFR and I wanted to share it here.
Ash Wednesday 2010
Peace and blessings.
I pray that all are well. Please forgive the timing of the email, but I can’t help but feel the Lord putting something on my heart to [...]

Embracing life with seat belts

I wonder if we spent half the resources we spend on enforcing seat belt laws on videos like this if we’d be better off?
Really neat. Well done. And strangely touching. Embrace Life.

The Mount Vernon Statement

Thumbnail image for The Mount Vernon Statement

I like this:
The conservatism of the Declaration asserts self-evident truths based on the laws of nature and nature’s God. It defends life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It traces authority to the consent of the governed. It recognizes man’s self-interest but also his capacity for virtue.
[...]
A Constitutional conservatism unites all conservatives through the natural [...]

Offensive: Tebow’s Super Bowl Ad

I can see what Planned Parenthood and NOW and NARAL and all of the other “pro” women groups were so upset about. I mean…this is really offensive stuff:

If this one upset them so much I can’t imagine all of the

Quote: Were all men created equal?

“The Declaration of Independence dogmatically bases all rights on the fact that God created all men equal; and it is right; for if they were not created equal, they were certainly evolved unequal. There is no basis for democracy except in a dogma about the divine origin of man.” – G.K. Chesterton What [...]

Scandal and Betrayal at the USCCB?

Washington, DC, February 2, 2010 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A national group that promotes abortion and homosexual rights has deep ties with the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ (USCCB) Department of Justice, Peace and Human Development, according to a report released Monday.
I’m still digesting this story. I hope there are some better explanations for [...]

FAIL: Media coverage of March for Life 2010

I know this is just expected now. But we must continue to call out the media on their shameful coverage of pro-life events. If we don’t, they get bolder and bolder in their efforts to distort the truth.
This video should be watched and shared by any person of integrity – regardless of your beliefs:

CNN’s Rick Sanchez covers March for Life, is totally inept

Rick Sanchez, of CNN, is inept. That’s the nicest way I can put it. The guy is clueless. Very embarrassing for him.

To give those that need it some perspective…this is like a news correspondent covering Martin Luther King’s march on Washington and saying “well we have both sides represented” and then wondering aloud about “which [...]

I wasn’t able to attend the March for Life in DC this year. I was able to attend the March here in Dallas though – which was great. We posted some pictures and videos we put together from it here.
Two of my favorite groups of people, however, did get to attend the March [...]

Pictures and Video from March For Life Dallas 2010

We marched in the Dallas March for Life today.  It was a beautiful, but somber, Texas day and thousands were in attendance.
These marches are absolutely vital to bringing about real change, a real Culture of Life, and in helping us to fully face the reality of this great injustice.  Please get involved in one near [...]

Using Facebook, Twitter and the future of Fallible Blogma

Happy new year, everyone! I want to announce a few changes to how I’ll be using FallibleBlogma.com, Facebook and Twitter this new year. I’ve been a bit busy this last week sorting some of this out, which is why it’s been so quiet.
First, I think I will be posting less “Blogma” to my [...]

Video: Catholic breakdancing ministry

It’s always neat to see people apply their talents directly to evangelization.  It’s something we are all called to do in one way or another with whatever small talents we happen to have.
Here’s a guy who uses dance in his ministry to help share his personal journey from atheism to Catholicism.  Fun to watch!
