In today's show, Trish Regan weighs in on the latest move to create a more "equal" environment in education; the American Bar Association is advising law schools to ditch the LSAT. Will this really help the legal profession and the students themselves? Or, will this move simply serve as yet another way to line the pockets of the universities and the American Bar Association at the expense of the students and society? Already, Deans at America's top law schools have voiced their concerns... fearing the move will have the unintended consequence of leading to even less diversity at our country's leading institutions.

Amid a less than stellar performance from the GOP in midterms, journalist Trish Regan asks whether the GOP can shake its Jan 6 "ghosts" in order to win over independents in 2024.

THE THESIS: The Left has destroyed the election system in all but a few States and, yet, Professional Republicans refuse to state that fact for fear we will not trust that ruined system. We need to fight a duel battle in this era where ideas, performance and reality no longer matter in elections and only harvesting spammed ballots from, at best, single party issue people infantilized and traumatized by government and media. Election security, as practiced in Florida, keeps ideas and performance at the forefront of elections, we cannot stop fighting for that. In utterly ruined state systems like Arizona, Wisconsin and Washington we must adapt, but we cannot do that using the lies and manipulations of our opponents and The Enemy. THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES: The Lord has done it many times. He leaves us to our own devices until enough of us are shaken to our knees. Psalm 81:12“So I gave them over to their stubborn hearts to follow their own devices.”Romans 1:2424 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another.THE NEWS & COMMENT:Mollie Hemmingway states what is obvious to us but not to the Professional Republicans. [AUDIO] - "Republican leadership really failed Republican voters. . . elections are not run anymore like they were in the 1980s. . . " - @MZHemingway on #Midterms2022 results.. . . and, every step added to the voting process introduces more chances for stupidity and error and far more ways to introduce fraud. We used to walk into a polling place, produce ID, get it checked, get a ballot, vote and insert it in a locked box. Then, that box was unlocked in front of witnesses and the vote tabulated. Think of all the Rube Goldberg steps in the broken system of today. This guy is a truly nice man and a Professional Republican. He worships an utterly decimated voting system in the separate Country of WA. Republicans and many in “conservative” media will scream “conspiracy theorist!”--the new “racist!”--if you dare suggest an insane system like this is perfect for fraud. What's wrong with Maricopa County?Cue the confidence-inspiring paper shuffler . . .[AUDIO] - Maricopa County Board of Supervisors Chairman: "Why is it taking the amount of time it's taking [to count the votes]. First of all, it's very standard. This is how things work in Arizona.". . . It's not how it worked in the entire State of Florida, Sir, In Houston:[AUDIO] - WATCH: Harris County GOP lists out all the anomalies on Election Day that specifically occurred in Republican stronghold polling locationsIn Nevada: Cameras Go Dark At Vote Counting Facility In Key Nevada County. They can do whatever they want because no one is going to do anything about it.Around the Country. Julie Kelly: Let's review the insane mail-in ballot rules in various states. Wayyy back when I was a GOP precinct committeeman, obtaining, processing, and submitting absentee ballot was sacrosanct. (Also required part of duties).The invention of mass-spamming people ballots, the advent of paid and unpaid ballot harvesters, the drop boxes and appeal to the lowest involvement, fight or flight minded, emotional voters and all introduce many opportunities for fraud. When no ID is required, when sometimes no signatures are required and signature matching is subjective, when hundreds of thousands of ballots are “adjudicated” or “cured” [read: changed after the election], no one should trust that system. Yet, the Shiney Shoes worship it. [AUDIO] - “In 2020, you saw … Mark Zuckerberg pour[] hundreds of millions of dollars into nonprofits like the Center for Tech and Civic Life that were heavily skewed towards Democrat-majority areas,” said Federalist Staff Writer Shawn Fleetwood during an interview on Salem News. “Essentially these funds were used to drive Democrat get-out-the-vote operations, so there are absolutely legitimate issues with our elections that deserve to be looked at and addressed.”Josh Halwey and others are finished worshiping a dead system. Josh Hawley Blasts GOP Leadership for Midterm ShowingFraudsters pay for fraud. This crypto-crash is a reminder that our Mockingbird Media has no problem pumping make believe and the guy who started this had no issue buying Democrats with utterly conjured funds. Do you know Sam Bankman-Fried? This the crypto found of FTX which just went bankrupt, hedged fraud & possible Ponzi-like disaster! He also gave over $40 MILLION to Dem causes this cycle. This is literally what we are up against. Lib coffers filled with stolenIn Florida, where the system has been largely fixed, ideas and morality still work. DeSantis is not perfect, not by a long stretch, and he locked people down at the beginning of the Great Reset cloaked in Covid. But, watch this and tell me the man did not learn his lesson. He seems completely repentant to me. [AUDIO] - This was when DeSantis lifted the ban on nursing home visits. A person struggling with keeping people safe but at what cost. Humanity. Decency. THIS is what we need in the White House & what has been missing for so long.

Jeg vet ikke hva jeg skal føle eller tenke om coronaviruset. Det virker som om jeg kan velge min egen holdning til dette viruset. Jeg har lest at det er farlig på linje med en mild influensa, og jeg leser at det er alvorlig og dødelig. Når jeg er presset, stresset og mangler kontroll på tilværelsen, opplever jeg korona-viruset som en stor trussel. Når jeg er mer i balanse og føler kontroll, har jeg et ubekymret forhold til både virus, munnbind og kinesere. Det er vanskelig å vite hvordan man skal reagere, og det oppleves vanskelig å reagere balansert på en måte som står i stil med de faktiske forholdene. På helsenorge leser jeg følgende om coronaviruset:Et hittil ukjent koronavirus har forårsaket et pågående utbrudd av lungebetennelse. Utbruddet startet i storbyen Wuhan i Hubei-provinsen i Kina i desember 2019, og viruset ble identifisert av kinesiske helsemyndigheter 7. januar 2020.Det nye viruset har nå fått navnet SARS-CoV-2, og kan gi luftveisinfeksjon hos mennesker. I mange tilfeller har det kun gitt mild sykdom, men det rapporteres også om tilfeller av alvorlig sykdom og dødsfall.Flertallet av de smittede personene har tilknytning til millionbyen Wuhan sentralt i Kina. Sykdommen smitter mellom mennesker og det er sett smitte til helsepersonell og andre nærkontakter. Det rapporteres stadig flere tilfeller fra andre kinesiske byer og andre land, inkludert i Europa. 30. januar 2020 erklærte WHO utbruddet som en «alvorlig hendelse av betydning for internasjonal folkehelse».SinnSyn har ikke for vane å lage dagsaktuelle epioder, men satser snarere på episoder som er relevante over tid, og derfor skal ikke denne episoden handle direkte om coronaviruset, men snarere ta for seg menneskets fryktreaksjoner og et fenomen som kalles for nocebo. Da vi hadde svineinfluensa utbrudd i Mexico i april 2009, var det mange som mente (og kanskje i etterpåklokskapens navn) at vi overdrev faren på grensen til hysteri. Den virkelige epidemien som feide over verden i 2009 var ikke nødvendigvis et influensavirus, men snarere medias skrekkinnvarslende reportasjer, og kanskje kan frykt i seg selv føre til sykdom?

Når jeg er presset, stresset og mangler kontroll på tilværelsen, opplever jeg korona-viruset som en stor trussel.

Christian Day is a modern day Warlock living in the Crescent City of New Orleans, Louisiana and, with his husband warlock Brian Cain, owns Warlocks, Inc., a business umbrella dedicated to their various business pursuits.

The highways of the Midwestern United States were home to two unidentified individuals known as “phantoms” in 1952. Well, one individual and one that very well may have been mass hysteria. These are the stories of the 40 Phantom that haunted Ohio's roadways, terrified truck drivers, and resembled something from a Misfits song or Rob Zombie video; and the Blue Phantom, who took potshots at Illinois motorists (maybe), are featured.

I'll look at this almost forgotten serial killer who terrorized Toledo, Ohio in the 1920s.

Summary of today's show: The Archdiocese of Boston unveiled Phase 1 of the Disciples in Mission pastoral plan, including 12 collaboratives of 28 parishes that will be the first to band together in a new arrangement in order to pool resources and work together to bring about the New Evangelization. Scot Landry and Susan Abbott were joined by Fr. Paul Soper, director of Pastoral Planning for the Archdiocese, to discuss the reasons for the initiative, the names and groupings of the first phase, the expected timeline from this point, and makeup of some of these newly announced collaboratives. Listen to the show: Watch the show via live video streaming or a recording later: Today's host(s): Scot Landry and Susan Abbott Today's guest(s): Fr. Paul Soper, Director of Pastoral Planning for the Archdiocese of Boston Links from today's show: Today's topics: Phase 1 of Disciples in Mission 1st segment: Scot Landry said it's an exciting day in the Archdiocese of Boston, following up an exciting week with the ordination of Bishop Deeley last Friday and the launch of Catholic Faith Essentials. Today, Phase 1 of the Disciples in Mission pastoral plan was launched and it is so significant that we are focusing on that topic instead of our usual news headlines for Thursday. Scot and Susan discussed how long this has been in process. Scot welcomed Fr. Soper to the show. He said Fr. Soper has been busy today being interviewed by the media and then meeting with the Presbyteral Council. A group of people including two pastors from the collaboratives, parishioners, and members of the archdiocesan pastoral planning commission were interviewed by National Public Radio and the Salem News and other news outlets. Fr. Soper said today we announced the list of the Phase 1 collaboratives. He said the first phase is a learning phase. They took 10 percent of the total parishes and took the opportunity to learn from it. There will be 135 collaboratives when they're done, so they have 12 collaboratives including 28 parishes. Saint Luke and Saint Joseph, Belmont Saint Mary, Saint Margaret, Saint John, Beverly Saint Mary, Saint Theresa, Saint Andrew, Billerica Saint Mary, Brookline (a one-parish collaborative) Saint Mary of the Angels, Roxbury and Saint Thomas and Our Lady of Lourdes, Jamaica Plain Saint Mary and Sacred Heart, Lynn Our Lady of the Assumption and Saint Maria Goretti, Lynnfield Saint Lucy and Saint Monica, Methuen Sacred Heart, Middleboro and Saints Martha and Mary, Lakeville Sacred Heart and Our Lady Help of Christians, Newton Saint James, Saint John, Immaculate Conception, and Sainte Anne, Salem Saint Jerome and Immaculate Conception, Weymouth Fr. Paul said they needed a good sample of parishes to represent the whole archdiocese. In these 12, there are 2 in each region of the archdiocese with 4 in the north region. There's one single-parish collaborative, one-four parish collaborative, one urban, one rural, six with schools, six without, and of those who do, one has two schools. Several collaboratives are bilingual and two are trilingual. Scot said it's a diverse mix of big, small, urban, rural, suburban and so on. Fr. Paul said they also didn't have to reach into the pot of parishes not ready for this mix. They had a significant number of parishes volunteer for phase one. Fr. Paul said he's pleased with the list because they are places that can embrace the mission of evangelization and because they can embrace the challenges they will face. He doesn't think they will all have it easy, but he hopes to glean lessons from the future from the challenges they face and he's confident they will all be successful. Scot said a lot of things need to happen now. He said the current pastors know that being part of Phase 1 is that they will all submit their resignations so Cardinal Seán can select the best pastor for each collaborative. The current pastors can re-apply. Fr. Paul said it's very hard for the 23 pastors to submit their resignations, even though all of them knew the process. They love the parishes they serve and aren't eager to leave. At the same time, they put themselves at the service of the Lord. He said the resignations are important because Cardinal Seán needs the freedom to look at each collaborative to decide the priest best fitted to that collaborative to advance the mission of evangelization. Fr. Paul said the priests of the Archdiocese are shining through this process. He hasn't met a single case of hostility or resentment as he called each of the pastors this past weekend. Scot said the number 12 is significant for Catholics as it is the number of apostles and tribes of Israel. Fr. Paul said they chose 12 intentionally. He said when Jesus called the 12 apostles, he was reconstituting Israel and re-establishing the ancient order of grace. Twelve is putting the people back together. That's what Disciples in Mission is about. Scot asked when the collaboratives become official. Fr. Paul said they will be formally inaugurated on July 1. Before that they hope the pastors will be assigned by early April. Until then, his office will go out and talk to pastors, parish staffs, parish councils, and the like to begin discussions. The new pastors will be trained in May and June in leadership and evangelization and administrative matters. Catholic Leadership institute will be providing the leadership training. Fr. Paul said most pastors will take their formal duties on June 4, which is called the Spring transfer date. This is usually 10 days after ordination and it's when most priest re-assignments take place anyway. Susan asked if the parish council dissolves when the pastor resigns. Fr. Paul said the pastors' resignation becomes effective when the Cardinal accepts the resignation, which could be in June when the new pastor starts. Shortly after June, when the collaborative is formally inaugurated, the responsibility of the pastoral council and finance council will be restructured to be a single council of each type for the whole collaborative. They then discussed where the people on those councils will come from, whether from existing councils or people who are not yet involved. Fr. Paul said the new councils will have to have members from all the parishes in the collaboratives. Scot asked about the parish staff in the new collaboratives. Fr. Paul said nobody is going to go in and just start firing people. There will be hard decisions to make. In most cases, where someone's job is redundant, there might be space for horizontal movement. So if they only want one religious education director, one of them could become a youth minister or adult faith formation director or something like that. Scot said most pastors don't have as much staff as they need, but the phase 1 collaboratives have adequate offertory to properly staff the needs of all the parishes, especially where there are economies of scale. Scot said his sense is that we will need more people working in our parishes in the future, especially with lay ecclesial ministers and pastoral associates and directors of religious education. Fr. Paul said in some cases we have been more modularized and maybe the model is to become more generalized in their functions, which is what many are already doing in practice. Susan said she's heard from parish secretaries and business managers that they're concerned about their positions. She asked what happens after July 1? Fr. Paul said for most pastors, from the day they're appointed they will being the process of gathering the staff and the councils. Susan clarified that current staff keep their positions indefinitely until and unless the pastor re-allocates the roles in a pastoral team. Fr. Paul said when Phase 1 is done, they want it to be a case study for the collaboratives in later phases. He said they plan to give the pastors the best support they can. He plans to have a team of people who can go out and provide support. For example, there will be an IT person who can help a pastor bring together all their computer systems or phone systems in the various parishes, providing recommendations for the pastor. If the pastor is okay with the recommendation, then the IT person will take care of everything. Another support person is a human resources person. The offices of the Central Ministries will be providing similar support to the parishes. Scot asked what Fr. Paul says to someone worried about closing parishes. Fr. Paul said Disciples in Mission is about establishing parishes as advancing the goals of evangelization. Closing parishes would be counter-productive as you want a place for people to come to. That said, no one can say no parish will ever close again. If a collaborative determines in its pastoral plan that it does advance evangelization, then that would be considered. It could be that the local collaborative would be the one to say that they think a parish should close in order to use those resources otherwise. Fr. Paul said it would only happen after every other possibility had been tried. 2nd segment: This week's benefactor card raffle winner is Arlene Motta from Lynnfield She wins the book by Diane L. Allen.

For a one-time $30 donation, you'll receive the Station of the Cross benefactor card and key tag, making you eligible for WQOM's weekly raffle of books, DVDs, CDs and religious items. We'll be announcing the winner each Wednesday during “The Good Catholic Life” program. 3rd segment: Scot said what stands out from the list of collaboratives are the one-parish and the four-parishes. Fr. Paul said they have about a dozen single-parish collaboratives on their list, either because the parish is really large, is alone in a town and standalone, or a has a distinct mission, like St. Ignatius in Chestnut Hill. In some cases, because they're on the geographic borders of the archdiocese and their neighboring parishes are in other collaboratives. But they will still undergo all the training, form their local pastoral plan, and show how they will re-tool themselves for the mission of the New Evangelization. On the four parish collaborative, Scot said the complexity seems a tougher challenge. Fr. Paul said it emerged from their local experience. He said the parishes had already been meeting collaboratively for several years. About a month ago, the collaborative was struggling with whether to be in Phase 1. At the request of the pastors, Fr. Paul attended an open meeting attended by about 150 people. They talked at length and depth and grappled with the questions. At the end, they took a straw poll and two-thirds said they wanted to be in Phase 1. Scot said there's a lot of data that the archdiocese captures now and much of that is shared on the Disciples in Mission website. Looking at the data for the Salem collaborative, it looks like it will be busy. They have 14 Masses at the four parishes, five priests assigned, with 2,200 plus attending Mass. They have 460 students in religious education. On the website, there's also a map of the territories, plus financial information, listing of the buildings, and statistical data. They have 23 years of sacramental data. Fr. Paul said the historical data shows us what growth can look like in these places. It should be possible to get back to the levels we had in 1989. Fr. Paul said these statistics are supportive of the broader national statistics. He said it's pointed out very well in the book by Sherry Weddell, Forming Intentional Disciples, that it's adult religious experiences that form religious adults and so it's adult faith formation that we should be focusing on. Scot and Fr. Paul discussed the listing of buildings in the collaborative and how the collaborative could use those buildings for ministry or to use them for rental income. Fr. Paul said the empty buildings could have great potential to effect the New Evangelization. Fr. Paul encouraged people to go to DisciplesinMission.com to look at the data and remember that we are doing this because Parish Evangelization works, but to do so we need strong parishes. Scot encouraged people to read Fr. Paul's blog on the website which updates nearly every day.
Summary of today's show: Our usual Thursday panel of Scot Landry, Susan Abbott, Fr. Roger Landry, and Gregory Tracy on Thursday discussed the news headlines of the week, including the bevy of newspaper editorials opposing Question 2; the Pilot's own editorial on the assisted suicide question; Scot's column in the Pilot answering proponent's claims in favor of Question 2; Fr. Roger's column in the Anchor on how Catholics should vote; and the surprise announcement of six new cardinals for the Church. Listen to the show: Watch the show via live video streaming or a recording later: Today's host(s): Scot Landry and Susan Abbott Today's guest(s): Gregory Tracy, managing editor of the Pilot, the newspaper of the Archdiocese of Boston, and Fr. Roger Landry, pastor of St. Bernadette Parish in Fall River Links from today's show: Some of the stories discussed on this show will be available on The Pilot's and The Anchor's websites on Friday morning. Please check those sites for the latest links. Today's topics: Assisted suicide; How Catholics should vote; new cardinals 1st segment: Scot Landry welcomed everyone to the show and welcomed Susan Abbott back to the show. She said this past week there was a wonderful workshop on bereavement ministry and on her parish on Monday, she started the Catholicism series by Fr. Robert Barron. She's also working on the revision of religious education guidelines for Catholic schools and parish religious education. Scot noted that Gregory Tracy will be on vacation next week. Fr. Roger Landry said it's been a busy few weeks for him. They had over 100 people come to an event preparing for the launch of the Year of Faith. Next week, he has eight talks in six days in five states, not to mention All Saints Day and All Souls Day. He'll be in Tennessee first, talking about a couple of colleges and the Nashville Dominicans religious community, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and then in Philadelphia the end of the week. It's been a great time of graces so far in the Year of Faith, not necessarily doing new things, but doing what we're doing with a far greater trust in God. Scot noted that we could be hit with a hurricane or tropical storm at the beginning of next week. Susan noted that last year there was a huge snowstorm that hit this area. Scot said in the stories this week, the Pilot wrote editorials asking people to vote non on Questions 2 and 3, outlining the rational arguments against the questions. Greg said the flaws are obvious to anyone who wants to look at these laws, they don't have to be Catholic. Scot quickly outlined the the laws of the law in the editorial as well as all the other groups that oppose Question 2. Scot said proponents have cited very small, alternative medical groups in favor. Scot asked about the editorial opposing Question 3, legalizing marijuana. Greg said that it's clear in certain cases some people are advocating it for medical purposes, but once you open the door it gets out of control. In California, the reality of legalization has been to have marijuana dispensaries selling more marijuana than the possible valid patients. Back to Question 2, Scot turned to some local newspaper editorials opposing the Question. He said the Salem News mentions the argument that the legislature and legislators should take this up. Susan said issues this serious shouldn't be left up to a one-time vote. It begs to be discussed by the legislature with input from experts and constituents. With the graying of the population and advances in end-of-life care for all ages, Massachusetts needs to have a wide-ranging, intelligent and respectful debate about assisted suicide. Our legislators need to find the political courage to confront a raw, emotional issue and craft a law that recognizes our right to make our own decisions about our quality of life while offering safeguards against misuse or abuse. Question 2 is not that law, and we urge a No vote. Scot said they are more opposed to the law because of the way it is crafted rather than the morality of it. Two weeks ago, the New Bedford Standard Times came out with a similar editorial. Fr. Roger said the newspaper editors said they support a right to suicide, but that this particular law as proposed doesn't protect the vulnerable. Scot referred to his op ed in the week's Pilot as well, which counters the arguments in favor of the law by proponents. At least they recognized how bad this particular bill is. If both opponents and proponents of assisted suicide in principle agree that this is bad, then the odds it's bad is 105% The Boston Herald also came out with an editorial against Question 2 this week. It is tempting to consider support for Question 2, the so-called “Death with Dignity” act, which seeks to ease the final days of terminally ill patients. None of us wants to see a loved one suffer; we do not want to endure such suffering ourselves. We can all imagine that moment when we might seek the ultimate escape from indescribable pain. But the ballot initiative is deeply flawed. The Herald recommends voting NO. The new law would allow willing physicians to prescribe a lethal dose of medication for patients who have been diagnosed with an incurable illness that will cause death within six months, and who ask for the prescription that they would self-administer. Of course, such an estimate of life expectancy could easily be wrong. The patient must be deemed mentally competent, but is not required to undergo any counseling to determine if the request may be motivated by, say, treatable depression. That is reason enough on its own to vote no. It's conceivable that some patients would resort to the lethal prescription not to ease their own suffering but to unburden loved ones. And there is deep concern about Question 2 within the medical and disability communities. We are fortunate in this country — and in this commonwealth — to have a strong network of end-of-life services for the terminally ill. Hospice provides compassionate care. Access to palliative care could be improved, and that should be the focus of those who are committed to humane and dignified treatment of the dying. Scot said a flaw in the editorial is that it makes it seem that suffering at the end of life is inevitable, but palliative care experts disagree and say that there is very little pain that can't be alleviated. Greg said he was happy to see a major Boston newspaper that came out against this Question. He said that he's heard some claim that if it's okay to that amount of morphine needed would end up causing death inadvertently, then this should be legalized. But as Cardinal Seán has said that this isn't the case. Susan pointed out that the intention is to relieve the pain, it's not to kill the person. Scot said every major newspaper in Massachusetts that's taken a position on Question 2 has been opposed. Fr. Roger said he would be shocked if one paper didn't take a position in favor simply because of political associations, but he's edified that so many newspapers agree that this particular initiative would be bad law. Of course, the truth of the matter is not determined by how many editorials are opposed or in favor. He encouraged people to write letters to editorial boards to thank them for the stand or to take a stand against. He noted that the more emphatically this Question is defeated, the less likely it is to be successful before the Legislature. Greg noted that with ballot initiatives, the wording of the law is crafted by those who are extreme advocates. If you're going to have a law, have it drafted by a neutral party like legislators. He noted that every definition and the wording is expansive. Also in the Pilot is a story about 17 religious leaders, including Cardinal Seán, signed an agreement opposing physician-assisted suicide, based on a set of four criteria: The 6-month prognosis, doesn't require consultations, doesn't require family notification, and that the lethal prescription is not a death with dignity. Scot encouraged listeners when discussing this Question refer to it as a bill legalizing assisted suicide, not the euphemisms proposed by those in favor of the ballot question. There was discussion of the prescribing of the lethal pills from the neighborhood pharmacy, not from the doctor's office, nor is there any control over the drugs once they're out in the public sphere. Scot said Cardinal Seán asked him to write in the Pilot with responses to the claims made by proponents of Question 2. Susan said it's a valuable one-page look at the pros and cons. Scot said what he hoped to do in the column is to provide assistance to someone who knows he's going to get in a debate with a proponent of Question 2. Also in the Pilot this week is the text of Cardinal Seán's homily that will be heard in all archdiocesan parishes this weekend. Tomorrow's show will be devoted to this homily. The video of the homily will be on on Friday night. Scot encouraged everyone to spread the homily through their social networks on Facebook, Twitter, and elsewhere. Susan said she also liked the column by Jaymie Stuart Wolfe called “The final enemy” on this topic. Susan said Jaymie looks at those who have lived terribly tragic lives and are afraid of dying alone and reminds us that it is to ensure that they don't die alone, but surrounded by love. 2nd segment: Scot said Fr. Roger's column in this week's Anchor is entitled “How does God want you to vote?”. Fr. Roger said it's about the proper formation of conscience. He said people are often confused about how this occurs. He said it's about asking the Lord the question in prayer, examine his values, and become salt and leaven. Voting is a moral action that makes us morally better or worse. In a choice between a candidate who recognizes that abortion is the massacre of innocent human beings and intends to work to reduce and eliminate it and one who celebrates abortion as a great civil “right” and even wants to force Catholic individuals and institutions to have to pay for it, is it complicated to figure out which candidate's values God wants us to support? Similarly, would He want us to vote for or against candidates and legislation that would give doctors the ability to help patients commit suicide? God instituted marriage in the beginning as the union of one man and one woman, as a reflection of His own image. Would He want us to support candidates who see marriage as He does or those who believe that such an idea of marriage is bigoted, unconstitutional, and needs to be redefined to embrace husband-less or wife-less unions? God founded a Church, calls us to use our freedom to live our faith through acts of charity, and wants us to be people who conscientiously follow His voice. Would He want us to support candidates who defend freedom of conscience and religion or those who want to use their office to compel Catholic institutions, priests, nuns, families and businesses to pay for other people to have free chemical abortions, sterilizations, and contraception? The answers, for those of a well-formed conscience, aren't complicated. He said God cares who our leaders are. That was true in the Old Testament and is still clearly true. Catholics are consecrated, which means we're different, and so we should be transforming society rather than just reflecting it. Scot said people often say their conscience compels them to favor things the Church's teaches are immoral. Fr. Roger said conscience is not personal preferences or gut instincts. Conscience is an organ of sensitivity given to us by God to hear his voice to do or avoid something or to see if something we did or failed to do accorded with what he wants us to do. We know we are hearing him correctly when we are in accord with his Revelation as safeguarded by the Church. He said we should prepare to vote by praying, by consulting the saints, and by becoming informed of Church teaching. He said many Catholics have not formed their consciences well and he said many priests have to express sorrow for having failed to be clear about what the conscience is and have failed to teach clearly the obligations of the Catholic faith. Scot said last week he was part of a panel at St. Mary parish in Dedham on current events, especially ahead of the election. He said people wanted guidance on how to vote. People asked why they don't hear more about this in the Church. Scot said when secularists out there don't like what they hear from us, they run to claim separation of church and state. Scot said the Church can't endorse a candidate from the pulpit, but the Church can express the principles for how a Catholic should balance all the different moral questions. Before we got into the ballot box, we have to think about it as an action of faith. Susan said another resource is the US Conference of Catholic Bishops which puts out succinct one-page briefings on Catholic teachings related issues of the day. Scot noted that the Church teaches that there is a hierarchy of values, where not every issue has the same moral weight. Greg said that the right to life is the pre-eminent right. If you're prevented from being born, then you don't even have a chance to be poor or one of the other conditions some would place a greater weight on. Scot said Pope Benedict declared seven new saints in Rome last Sunday. He said also that there was a surprising announcement in which the Pope named six new cardinals. Two of them are significant, Archbishop Harvey, an American who's been the head of the Papal Household. Also there are no other curial officials or Europeans. The other surprising pick is the 55-year-old Filipino archbishop Luis Tagle. Fr. Roger said he was surprised that Archbishop Gerhard Muller, the prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, wasn't picked to be a cardinal. Fr. Roger said he's always been impressed by Tagle and said he's been tipped as one of the leading contenders for the papacy from Asia.
When I read this story in the Salem News, I could hardly believe it. Beyond words. Man tracks down pilot who saved his life in Vietnam BEVERLY — Rick Lindsey was lying on the ground, blood pouring out of the severed femoral artery in his right thigh, his femur bone shattered, when he saw a beautiful sight. It was a U.S. Marine Corps Sikorsky UH-34D medical evacuation helicopter, swooping in to Hill 55 in Vietnam amid intense fire, its machine guns firing back. "It was about 100 meters away, and I'm thinking, 'Boy, I'd sure like to be on that,'" Lindsey said. Lindsey, with the help of a cooperative Viet Cong soldier he had captured that morning, made it to the helicopter, as did two other injured Marines. As the helicopter roared away from the chaos below, Lindsay waved goodbye to the Viet Cong prisoner, whose finger Lindsay had shot off that morning. The POW waved back with his bandaged hand. The Marines were flown to a hospital in Da Nang. All three survived. And Lindsay, who would go on to serve 24 years in the Marines before retiring as a lieutenant colonel, vowed that he would one day find out the identity of the man who daringly piloted that helicopter on May 13, 1967. Lindsey's search culminated on Saturday, when he flew from his home in Virginia to meet Leland McDonough of Beverly, the man who saved his life. I knew it was the kind of story that our good friend Bruce McQuain would really enjoy. Bruce, a Vietnam Vet himself, is the man who brings us the Someone You Should Know stories every Sunday night. For once, I had the opportunity to tell Bruce about Someone He Should Know. This was a great honor to be able to tell the story of Leland McDonough and Rick Lindsey. I can't thank Leland enough for joining us and sharing it with us. What is Pundit Review Radio? On Boston’s Talk Station WRKO since 2005, Pundit Review Radio is where the old media meets the new.

Chris Cassidy of the Salem News is delivering a case study every day in the paper on the importance and influence that a watchdog media can have on the governing class. As I’ve said all along, we need the media to play this role in a vibrant democracy. Perhaps he could go to Washington DC and give a seminar to his infatuated colleagues in the White House press corps? Look at what he has accomplished in the course of two weeks; May 26: Earlier pensions OK’d for 911 staff; Plan called “A raid on the retirement system” "Thanks to a subtle change in job title, some North Shore emergency dispatchers will be able to retire five years early under new rules approved by the Essex Regional Retirement Board. By reclassifying police and fire dispatchers as signal operators, the board recently allowed the group to retire with maximum benefits at age 60. That puts them into an elite group of municipal workers who are eligible for retirement before age 65 - a benefit typically reserved for those with hazardous jobs, such as police officers, firefighters and electrical line workers." June 1: Panel: DPW workers can retire at 55 "Department of Public Works employees could retire at age 55 — 10 years early — under a bill at the Statehouse proposed by the Essex Regional Retirement Board and a Lynn lawmaker. The legislation would give DPW workers the same status as police officers and firefighters, who can retire at 55 because of the inherent dangers of their jobs. It would also cost taxpayers, who’d be on the hook not only for the extra 10 years of each employee’s pension but for the added salaries and health insurance costs of their replacements." June 8: Essex Retirement Board reports huge loss "The Essex Regional Retirement Board posted a 33 percent loss last year, the worst of the 107 retirement systems in Massachusetts. The board made news last month for allowing dispatchers to retire at age 60 and for pushing legislation to let DPW workers retire at age 55. It’s also come under fire for its lobbying and travel expenses. Now its dramatic losses will have further implications for the taxpayers who help fund the system. Much of the losses were racked up after the board invested last summer in mortgage-backed securities -the very instrument largely blamed for bringing down the U.S. economy." They invested in mortgage backed securities last summer? What was the pitch? I know my house is on fire, I’ll give you a great deal if you buy it? Don’t fret, they have a sophisticated plan to get the money back. According to Chief Operating Officer Lilli Gilligan, She said the board will call the city of Northampton — which had the best returns of 2008 — to find out which strategies it used. Yea, that’s the ticket, chase last year’s winners! A brilliant strategy indeed! June 10: Pressure builds on retirement board, as some want out "Town managers from about half the communities that pay into the Essex Regional Retirement Board will meet this week to discuss their concerns about the system and ways to reform it, including the possibility of pulling their funds out altogether. But in a pre-emptive strike, the retirement board is calling its own meeting 90 minutes earlier with all members of its Advisory Council to broach similar topics on its terms. The meetings come amid a turbulent time for the retirement board, which oversees the pensions of employees in Boxford, Hamilton, Ipswich, Manchester-by-the-Sea, Middleton, Topsfield and Wenham." The key question is what are we going to do with this news? Are we going to read it and do nothing? Or are we going to read it and pick up the phone and let our voices be heard by the people in power? Are we going to whine and complain and then vote them all back for another term? I spoke Sunday night with Salem News editorial page editor Nelson Benton, about the role of the media, the reporting of Chris Cassidy as well as the rot within state government and what it will take to change it. Nelson is 100% correct when he says, "When all is said and done, however, we get the quality of government we deserve. And by not demanding more of our elected representatives, we’ve encouraged them to act more like sheep than shepherds." What is Pundit Review Radio?
