Somewhere along the line, shocking public misbehavior became a substitute for talent. And the purveyors of popular culture have just lapped it right up.
How else can you explain the meteoric rise of rap and hip-hop, with their emphasis on crime, drug use, misogyny, outlandish excess, and materialism?
I never thought I'd live long enough to see the death of simple morality and the social contract. I was wrong.

What about the Madonna on the piece of toast in the dining room?That wasn't Madonna - that was Lady GaGa on the piece of toast.

And the general John Q. Public does not understand the significance of that!

...but the general "John Q." member of the Body of Christ DOES. And it doesn't bode well for Rome.

Yeah, I was gonna say, considering her acceptance speech at the Golden Globes last week, they shouldn’t have bothered with the recovery.

Breaking News: Madonna turns out to be a statue meant to represent the Madonna and not the real Madonna.

I guess you have to run that by Christ at the moement of your death — why you did not respect and honor HIS mother, that is.

I seriously doubt that anyone is still drowning a week after the ship sank. This was a salvage effort, not a rescue.

1. I received a Papal Blessing from Pope Paul VI when I earned a special award in Girl Scouts, back in the 1970s.
I”m doing fine, except for an addiction to reading things on this one conservative website...
2. Pope John Paul II sent a Golden Rose to shrine of Our Lady of Chestokova (sp?). Poland has been doing pretty well ever since.
I like a tin foil hat theory as much as the next person, but m wondering if maybe perhaps there were other contributing causes to the downfalls and disasters which you mention?

Still. What’s more important?
To: nuconvert
You should agree with me anyway. If your mom, dad, or other loved one were dead, would you like to think that a “rescuer” went for the icon, vase, or other object or pulled your family member out. It’s indecent to do anything else, unless the objects were in the way. I can’t even believe this is something to debate.
To: don-o
They grabbed the relic first, so that implies it took priority. If your loved one(s) is dead on a shipwreck or other scenario and they send in people to retrieve the bodies but they decide to haul out things while leaving your family member, how would YOU feel? Taking the statue out first showed a serious lack of feeling.
