Religion and Sports

Do they mix?

I'm afraid that my dad, a big Rick Majerus fan (he's the head coach of the Jesuit SLU basketball team), is going to be quite conflicted.

On the one hand, Rick got himself on the wrong side of Catholic Archbishop Raymond Burke by supporting Hillary and is pro-choice and pro-stem cell research.

See this link.

On the other hand, he is not a "big gay guy"



So maybe all is well.

It's All Good (instant replay)

"The Three Big Ideas Of Life
are
Creation. Evolution. Grace. "

I wrote only those words to begin a post I thought I could write on December 16, 2007. It was saved as a draft, but not published.

I finally wrote it tonight. Check it out, if you dare.

We Don't Torture

So no one needs to go to jail. Right?

Wrong. Maybe we just can't or won't prove that we do or don't torture. But, as usual, perhaps it's the cover-up that will be prove to be criminal.
