# GrowUp: College Isn't Supposed to be Daycare!

A great open letter from a college president:

Everett Piper's Open Letter will definitely hurt the feelings of narcissistic babies pretending to be grownups eager to learn. They need to get off college campuses and re-enroll in pre-school where the teacher will firmly remove them kicking and screaming from Mommy's arms and set them on the road to self-control. Parents who have twenty and thirty-somethings still living at home, I hope you charge them rent or tell them to grow up and move on. They need to learn to live in the real world where something is expected of them more than doing their own laundry. (Please, Mom, you aren't doing their laundry too are you?)

They're Doin' the Climate Hustle!

A new documentary debunking man-made global warming will premier just in time for the Paris summit gathering all the Chicken Littles to scream, "Climate change is going to kill us all!" Climate Hustle presents a growing number of scientists challenging the assumption that CO2 is damaging the planet. Check out the website here. And then read what prominent scientists have to say about the nonsense.

John Coleman has a great video on how the global warming scam is based on lies and how it got started. The engine driving global warming is money and politics. Check it out. He's not very hopeful about his and other skeptics' efforts changing things. What will change things is the same thing that destroyed Paul Ehrlich's population scare. Time and exposure. False prophets ultimately do themselves in. The population bomb was a dud and the man-made global warming/climate change hysteria will undo itself as well. How many frigid winters will people have to experience before they realize they've been scammed? And why? It's the money, stupid! There's no money in normal. There's big money in scaremongering.

Are You Ready for His Coming?

Is any of us ever completely ready? I doubt it. We continually need to convert. I pray this Advent will be a time for me that results in my being more ready on Christmas Eve for Christ's coming than I was on this first Sunday of Advent. What will you do to be more ready? How will you sweep out the dust bunnies and cobwebs soiling your soul? I will be reflecting on that today. Lord give me the eyeglasses of truth that make me aware of my self-deception. Give me the broom of prayer and the dust rag of repentance that help me clean and sweep my house and make it ready to welcome you. And help me to meditate with song and reflection during the coming days and weeks. Maranatha! O come, Divine Messiah!

From the Tongue in Cheek Department: A New Christmas Greeting

As Advent begins and the secular world begins already to celebrate Christmas, or the winter holiday as they say, Fr. Tom offers us an interesting:

OBSERVATION ABOUT THE NEED FOR INCLUSIVITY - from Fr. Tom Collins

President Obama has repeatedly asserted that Islam is a religion of peace.
If this is so, should we not try to make our Christmas celebrations more
inclusive by stopping our imposition of the Christian "Peace on earth"
and, instead, loudly proclaiming in crowded shopping malls during the
Christmas season, "Allah hu Akbar"? I believe that people would respond
quite dramatically [And how!] to such a pro-active effort to make Christmas more
inclusive. It is just a thought to help all of us stay politically correct
during the holiday season and to bring a smile to the face of our President. [And, of course, we all want to do that, eh?]

Civil Unrest Under Obama is No Accident! Fight Back with Faith!

If you want to understand what makes Barack Obama tick, you need to read Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals and Reveille for Radicals. These two books explain exactly how the community organizer works to keep people off balance and at each other's throats. Demonization is part of the plan and Obama is expert at that. And who are the demons?

Being a Good Steward Begins in the Kitchen

Stop! Don't throw away that bird!

When I was a little girl, my mother always encouraged us to clean our plates. Throwing out food was verboten. Considering there were twelve mouths to feed (my parents, myself, and my nine siblings), I'm sure our astronomical food bill was part of her motivation. But she also thought of those less fortunate. Wasting food was throwing away money that could be given to feed the poor.

We, as children of course, didn't have a clue about the "starving Armenians" and would gladly have sent our unwanted lima beans and black-eyed peas to fill up their plates, but as an adult I know exactly what my mom meant.

#"Brain-Death" is a Fraud: Educate Yourself on End of Life Issues

Zack Dunlap, declared "brain-dead",
recovered from his injuries.

Two weeks ago, the Catholic Media Coalition held a meeting on End of Life Issues. We need to get the word out about the "transformation" of modern medicine from patient-oriented to preserve and protect life to $$$-oriented with limited treatment and hastening death. I gave the introductory talk. What's happening is deliberate with a well-organized cadre of death-dealing foundations like George Soros' Open Society, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, etc. They aren't content with killing off the little ones in the womb. Their targets now are the "useless eaters" and the injured who can be "farmed" for their valuable organs. You'll note in the video a chart from 2011 showing just how much money one young body filled with healthy organs can provide to the transplantation industry.

The Beginning of a Great Adventure with Jesus

As I watched this video I thought of St. Therese entering the Carmel at fourteen and of St. Clare running away in the middle of the night to be shorn and clothed in the robes of what came to be the Poor Clares. What a blessing for this young woman as she knocks on the door and enters into the Eucharistic Presence to try her vocation. Please pray for her and all those exploring religious vocations. And pray for Mother Angelica whose medical situation is precarious. They have put her on a feeding tube and she continues to suffer for all of us. May God bless her with strength and courage.

No Greater Love than This: To Lay Down One's Life for One's Friends

Are you tempted to despair about the younger generation? This video should give us all hope. The hatred of the terrorists can never overcome love. Let's pray for the mercy of God on all those young people murdered in cold blood by those who are dead inside and serving their satanic god. We should pray for them as well. Hell awaits for those who fail to repent.

Bill Donohue's "Charity" is Mostly Himself

Yesterday I blogged about Bill Donohue's attack on those raising the alarm about Cardinal Wuerl's lavish digs on Embassy Row. Out of curiosity I checked Donohue's "charity," the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Right. Charity Navigator has a breakdown that is most enlightening. One hundred percent of the league's income is derived from contributions. Less than half of that goes to advance their agenda. Over 50% goes to administration and fundraising including a hunky chunk for Donohue's $417,000 salary.
