Who's on First?

This is a clear example of how difficult it is to believe what we hear and read from our mainstream media:

• "Church urges faithful to reject stem cell cures" (The Age) vs. "Catholic Church Not Opposed to All Stem Cell Research, Priest Says" (LifeNews.com)

• "The Church is not political, says Pope" (Ansa.it) vs. "Cardinal McCarrick Shares Political Wisdom" (Zenit)

• '"Jesus Camp' doesn't take sides" (Detroit Free Press) vs."'Jesus Camp' gets heated reactions from all sides" (Miami Herald)

• "Madonna agrees to drop crucifixion scene" (UPI) vs. "NBC forced to cut Madonna crucifixion shot" (Guardian)

• "Warriors get assist from Oracle" (CNET News) vs. "New ways needed to aid disabled vets, panel says" (NavyTimes.com)

Who can we trust? Certainly not the media for the most part. The media is all about one thing: Entertainment. That is a unfortunate reality which I think more people are beginning to understand. The great blessing that we have living in 2006 is the internet. We are thus able to check out various sites in hopes of finding objective reporting.......ooops, I shouldn't use the word objective since that doesn't exist in modern English usage. Yeah, I think those old foggies back when Old Anglo-Saxon was spoken or the days of Shakespeare used that crazy word.

Maybe Madonna? Yeah right....who else is tired of hearing about her? Oh that the world would concern itself with the real Madonna, Our Lady, instead of the false-Madonna. We see in these two women deception and truth. On the one side, you have the false-Madonna who is attempting to adopt, in somewhat obscure circumstances, a child who is or is not actually up for adoption. She is in a sense imposing her will on the situation. On the other hand you have Our Lady, who when the angel Gabriel came to her to tell that she had been chosen to give birth to the Savior of the world, she says: "Let it be done unto me, according to your word." Very interesting! Lets ask Our Lady to intercede on the behalf of our entire country to her Son, Jesus Christ....the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
