Priest Drowns Baby During Baptism

Not that I agree with infant baptism, but this is very unfortunate and just sad on all accounts. And the fact that the Priest is in denial and seems to have this "oh well" attitude is just upsetting.

Child dies during baptism and Priest denies any wrong doing.

Some comments on Digg (where I originally found the link) suggest that
this wouldn't have happened if people would finally step away from these pointless, ancient rituals.
Does baptism serve any purpose? Or is this the equivalent of grilling the face of Jesus on your toasts?

What are your thoughts?

The NAACP does NOT represent me...

The NAACP along with Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and all those other Negroes who feel they are "leading" Black America are not a representation of who I am as an American. I despise the very ground Jesse and Al walk on, and the NAACP can only speak for itself and their members.

No self respecting Black American would be associated with any of the aforementioned. I truly wouldn't have ties to them. Nothing they attach themselves to ends up with any good outlook.

Why are some people blinded by the likes of those folks? Like a tootsie roll pop, the world "may never know."

Everyone that doesn't agree with you is a racist so says the NAACP.

The NAACP adopted a resolution Tuesday condemning "racist elements" in the Tea Party movement and calling on the movement's leaders to repudiate bigotry, despite claims from Tea Partiers that the measure is just a political ploy.

Let me say this and just wrap this whole thing up quick and simple, if the Tea Parties are racist, so is the NAACP. The teapot shall not call the kettle black. [No pun intended]

I'm so sick of BOTH sides calling the other racist, that I'm not even sure people even know the true definition of the word anymore. When all else fails, just call the other side a racist, and that will get them off their marker. They'll be so busy trying to explain and defend why the aren't a racist that their cause will go suffering and they will lack even less substance than they had previously.

Black folks like to call white folks racist, and white folks like to deny being racist. When truly racist and those that deny to be racist come in ALL colors.That back and forth exchange between whose racist and whose not is like Tom and Jerry playing over and over again. Dumb after awhile.

Illegal Immigration

Illegal Immigration = WRONG

Legal Immigration = RIGHT

I could write a LONG post over the recent immigration debate but I'm just going to throw out a few of my opinions on the situation and probably just leave it alone.

I SUPPORT Arizona. Illegal immigration is wrong. We have rules in America and we have every right to enforce them. We don't owe anyone.

I believe that people have the right to live anywhere they want, but when you back up your stuff and move you need to be prepared to fall in line and follow the laws of that nation. I don't expect anyone to assimilate but we must all conform to a certain extent. I makes no sense to fly a flag from a different country and protest America when you are on our soil.

Citizens are the only ones that can make the laws and protest the laws. As a non-citizen you cannot expect amnesty and you also cannot protest in our streets because you don't agree with American laws.

Everyone wants the benefits of being an American yet they don't want to sever ties with the so called country they are fleeing. Why are you not protesting your own government? Why so much moxie against our country? Where are your balls when it comes to your president and laws?

It baffles me. When in Rome you do as the Romans. But no one has respect for our laws. And call themselves upset with our laws. Why come? Why should we mold and change ourselves for your liking?

And you can hold in your head that I'm talking about a specific people but I'm talking to any individual or any group that feels America needs to change for their own liking.

Everyone is welcome, but you must go about the process that we have set in place. And don't do us any favors, America would still make it with or without you. It's like death, the worlds keeps on moving, and so shall we.

Mayor and teenage daughter found dead in home

Taken from CNN.com

The mayor of Coppell, Texas, and her daughter were found dead in their home with gunshot wounds to the head, officials in the suburban Dallas city said Tuesday.
Authorities did not disclose a motive for the deaths. But Mayor Jayne Peters' home showed no signs of forced entry, the city said in a statement.
Peters and her 19-year-old daughter, Corinne, were found dead Tuesday evening by officers who had been sent to conduct a welfare check on the family.
The officers had gone to the home at the request of the city manager's office after the mayor did not show up for a scheduled council meeting.
"Because we do not have all the facts and the investigation is not complete, we cannot release any additional information," said Deputy Police Chief Steve Thomas.
Peters was elected mayor in May 2009 and had served as a member of the city council since 1998.
Coppell, 16 miles northwest of Dallas, has a population of 39,000.
