Description:
Life throws many opportunities and trials our way. Through our successes and failures, the authenticity of our faith is always being tested. It's not just our words that matter. It's our genuine responses and actions that also speak to whether our faith is real.

Catepillar, UNO, toilet, diarhea, Mystical Body, hard drives, prayers, meds, Mass, women drivers video

My 7 year old boy, "Steven" has a caterpillar project that has become a family undertaking. We watched YouTube clips and went with the egg carton. His 10 year old brother, "Tom" cut off ends of coat hangers to use as legs. Steven wants to finish it tonight until I found that it was due next week. He said he wanted it out of the way. "Out of the way of what?" I thought - like he has a pressing schedule to keep.

My 6 year old girl was crying because no one wanted to play UNO with her. So, I asked for a hand and started to play. She stopped crying and soon her sobbing turned into chatter as she directed me to take 4 cards or do the reverse. She's the UNO champion of the family but her brothers don't mind losing.

My 2 year old is yelling for attention as my wife put her in the crib for a break. "She has diarhea" my wife reported. I asked,  "So what has she been eating?" But the baby's cries got even louder that we could barely hear each other. So, the baby got picked up.

Then the basement toilet was stinking. The boys clogged it with too much toilet paper and poop. Back when my wife and I started, we divided the chores where I got whatever is heavy and stinky. So, I'll flush, plunge and use the auger if nothing works.  I learned that when we had a plumber come over. They charged $50 back then. The auger cost a lot less.

There's some peace and quite now; so, I wrote this as a thin slice of life about being a dad in the 21st century.  I also looked into Facebook and saw a funny video that has been shared by 3 friends.  I saw it and it was hilarious.  It is what it is and does not make any general statement about a certain gender.

I still have to replace a couple of hard drives.  I'm not sure how they got corrupted - probably because of  wear and tear that I could have lessened by putting the computers in sleep mode instead of keeping them running.  I got the drives from Ebay because they're from models older than 5 years.  I saw a YouTube video on how to install them.

I have to pay some bills online, take my meds, brush my teeth and pray before I sleep. I thank God for this noisy crew and ask His protection over them. I am thinking of going to an early Mass tomorrow, but it feels too cold to get out of bed early in the morning. But I'm going to try anyway. The doctrine of the Mystical Body is that if I become holy, then I raise the holiness of my family. That is really the best that I can give them and I won't have to yell as much if they're holy.  So, we'll see.

Vid: Impending Punishment for US Liberals

Today pro-aborts do violence to the religious defenders of the unborn, who are mostly followers of the meek and gentle Jesus. Still on a larger scale, health care legislation is being pushed to sneak in the federal funding of abortions. This will increase the number of abortions tenfold. So far 50 million unborn children who were murdered since abortion became legal and their cries pierce the heavens. Furthermore, anti religious laws proliferate as though there's a rush to remove God from the hearts and minds of Americans.

With that background, one needs to look at the Hebrew Scriptures to see how God punished those who mock Him. In the video, you can see that it is not hard for His avenging hand to deliver justice and punishment in a single terrorist attack or decades of Islamic rule as Muslims gain political power. The Muslims will assert God's rights forcibly and violently. Those who will not respect and obey God out of love now will follow His rules in fear and trembling later.

Video: "Comfort"

What's wrong with comfort? Why move out of your comfort zone? If you're uncomfortable talking about Jesus, should you just remain silent and leave it to the priests?

Vid: The Proof ( for the Agnostics & Atheists out there )

From http://www.tangle.com/view_video?viewkey=43e2bf3718e3ba0e2208

For those who do not believe, no proof is sufficient; for those who do, no proof is necessary.
Either way, the proof will either strengthen your conviction or give your one.

Vid: Muslims backlash in Iraq - a pattern?

Here in the US, I have Muslim friends from Pakistan, Iran, Palestine and Egypt just as I have Jewish friends from Israel and the entire East Coast. I find them all to be decent human beings and some to be devoutly spiritual.

Even if Obama says that we are not a Christian nation, the census still shows that Christians here are the majority. And that makes me proud to be a follower of Jesus because compared to some Muslim countries, everyone here gets along and are treated equally under the law.  I don't know what happened before but I heard about the atrocities of Crusaders.  What I do know  is that nothing like that goes on as public policy nowadays.  When the clandestine genocide in Kosovo became public, the world moved against it.  It has also been rumored that the Pope himself sent arms to help the Muslims during the conflict.

Now with the changing European demographics, people are getting nervous with Muslims immanent domination.  But if the Middle East can be taken as an indicator, then this video will provide some insight of what might become.  Just as there are intolerant fundamentalists who see every non-Muslim as fair game, there are those who respect religious freedom. While others feel oppressed by Christian or Jewish aggression and retaliate in kind, others seek a peaceful resolution.  Still there are those who are sincere in their prayers and  fasting that they draw close to the One God.  And since God is One, then they also draw near to the Jewish people and the Christians who also submit to the will of that same God.  And having the same Heavenly Father, it becomes possible to remember and live as who we truly are - siblings.
