Couldn't agree more, Julia, especially about being bombarded with rubbish. I got so mentally log jammed I stopped watching CNN altogether and switch off other news the minute they mention Trump. Jarg's post above shows how Poland is the only EU country that could be bothered promoting a pro-life, anti-abortion message, and the other countries are doing their best to pressurise Poland. Had it not been for their determination to show a united front during Brexit, especially in the run-up to elections in France, etc., Poland would have been ostracised by now. The only government opposing the re-election of the puppet, Donald Tusk, was Poland, his home country.
In the USA you can kill an unborn baby all the way to birth, but if you destroy the egg of a bald eagle you will get 5 years in jail.

Another surprise coming up for next Easter Friday - French theologian Anne Marie Pelletier will preach the Via Crucis in Coloseum. http://www.onepeterfive.com/pope-fr...ried-divorcees-write-good-friday-meditations/ This article by infovaticana expands further. Pelletier participated in the 'secret' (not announced to the media) meeting organized by cardinal Marx and 30 other people at the Pontifical Gregorian University before the sinod of 2015 to push for 'pastoral innovations'. According to this article the meeting focused on the acceptance to communion of remarried divorcees and homosexual couples. It discussed how to substitute the theology of the body (St John Paul II) with a theology of love. Pelletier is quoted saying that if the sinod "were only to confirm what the church has always taught" it will be a "failure".

yikes...Lord I offer up my labors this day in Union of our mother Mary that Pope Francis takes the lead to gather your flock under your direct Magisterial teaching.

I would have to ask Pelletier if he is telling us the Church founded by Jesus Christ is a failure. Alternatively all we could do is ask him if he has taken leave of his senses.
I just caught this, happened a few weeks back but I did not see it posted here. Sorry about the font size. http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/tu...ns--.aspx?PageID=238&NID=110874&NewsCatID=510 Turkish FM warns of ‘religion wars’ in Europe in remarks on Dutch elections Europe will soon be the site of “religion wars,” Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu said on March 16, in Ankara’s first comment on the general elections in the Netherlands that saw the victory of Prime Minister Mark Rutte’s Liberal VVD. “Now the election is over in the Netherlands ... “When you look at the many parties you see there is no difference between the social democrats and fascist [Geert] Wilders. All have the same mentality. Where will you go? Where are you taking Europe? You have begun to collapse Europe. You are dragging Europe into the abyss. Holy wars will soon begin in Europe,” Çavuşoğlu said on March 16, in Ankara’s first comment on the general election in the Netherlands that saw the victory of Prime Minister Mark Rutte’s Liberal VVD. “They killed each other 100 years ago because they were of different faiths,” he added, without elaborating. “But they learned a lesson from this and then set up the European Union and the Council of Europe,” he added.
