Notre Dame

Notre Dame invited Obama to give a commencement speech at their graduation ceremony and while he was there they gave him an honorary doctorate. It is controversial that they invited Obama to speak considering that it is a Catholic University and he has done more harm than any president I know in the first 100 days in regards to Church related issues. But he is the current president of the United States so I suppose that it's alright that they invited him to speak. It is a great travesty that Notre Dame awarded him an honorary doctorate. He is a radical pro abortion president.

We must be witnesses to our Christian faith. Notre Dame has not been such a good witnesses during this trial. Having their campus police arrest peacefully protesting priest is not exactly being a good Christian witness. At a time when popular culture would do away with the Church altogether as something archaic, Catholics and all Christians must stand up for their beliefs. We must be counted. I ask for God's forgiveness that I didn't figure out a way to drive to Indiana and stand in solidarity with the protesters. I certainly was with them in spirit. Hopefully in the future I will do better.

If Christians do not begin to stand together in solidarity the ultimate outcome will be that Christianity, or Christian beliefs, will become illegal(or at least unlawful). Many Christians have already watered down their theology to such a degree that they won't even notice. But get ready for it, with the Muslim rise in Europe and the continued secular rise in the west, the body of Christ is going to be refined in fire in the next 50 years.

Lord, let us be the instruments of your peace, let us reach out to those who kill us, arrest us, or kill our unwanted brothers or sisters. Help us to Love like You Love, Dear Lord. So that the world will be won over with our Love. Amen.
