Update: Michael Pfleger removed from his position at St. Sabina Catholic Church.

Catholic priest Michael Pfleger has temporarily been removed from his position as “pastor” of St. Sabina Catholic Church by Francis Cardinal George. This comes after Pfleger’s hate-filled, racist-laden “sermon” last week. To watch the news clip on this decision and read the article, click here. To watch the videos of Pfleger’s tirade that caused his removal, see this post.

I wonder when these liberal, anti-American, race-baiting, indoctrination centers that call themselves “churches” will lose their tax exempt status for their politically charged rhetoric spewed from their pulpits. It seems that the very country they despise is giving them the very freedom by which to despise it. And tax-free to boot! How ironic.

Subway: Eat Fresh, but don’t bother entering our contest if you’re home schooled.

Recently the Subway sandwich chain offered this contest to kids in public, private, and parochial schools but excluded those kids that are home schooled, saying: “Home schools not eligible.” You can read more about this at American Thinker.

This discrimination obviously caused a stir and especially so in the Blog World (and critics still say bloggers are wasting their time). Subway has since retracted their stance on home schooled kids by apologizing and indicating that they plan on holding another contest in which home schoolers will be welcome.

The picture in this post is a fictitious fabrication that I found here and is not/was not found on the Subway website.

Bible Reference Notes: “Whose Name?”

The Bible Reference Notes for today are on the subject of Whose Name? I put these together a while back when debating with some Jehovah’s Witnesses on exactly whose name is above all other names. I thought readers would be interested in this (especially if this topic comes up with a JW).

To find out the purpose and exactly how to use these Bible Reference Notes, check out the explanation in my first installment The Holy Scriptures. I also highly recommend Hell and the Eternal Soul (another good one for dealing with Jehovah’s Witnesses).
