I'm watching you

I use this site to rant about a great many things, but every once In a while I just like to share something that means something to me. Being a Father, a dad, means a lot to me, and is not a responsibility I take lightly. Thank you to the creators of this video for reminding me once again, that being a father is not a job, it is not even a career, it is a vocation. For those of us called to do it, it is a life time of service, but it is worth every second!

One small step for man

I am not going to say anything I think this video speaks for itself. Thanks

another Video from CatholicVote.org

I really like CatholicVote.org. They have had some really good stuff there lately.

Pope and New Media

I find news like this very encouraging. If the Pope, or more likely his counsel can take time to look at new media as a way of communicating, and then turn around and use that as a way to communicating the message of the Church, this is an amazing thing.

If you have the time go out a read this article and see what they have in mind.

Catholic Vote

I was going to apologize for two Faith based posts in a week, but I'm not going to. This is part of my life that that is what is this blog is about. If I upset some people, then I will deal with it.

Enjoy.

New Media Message From the Pope

Being a Catholic myself, and a sinner, but still someone who attempts to follow the faith as closely as possible, this message hit home for me. Without being too cliche, New Media is the way of the future. Not that it is the case with my site, but the idea that one person can speak (write, perform) and thousands for people that are geographically separated can nearly instantly share the experience is incredible.

I found one paragraph particularly important, and one of many reasons I strive to keep my sites PG rated:

Those who are active in the production and dissemination of new media content, therefore, should strive to respect the dignity and worth of the human person. If the new technologies are to serve the good of individuals and of society, all users will avoid the sharing of words and images that are degrading of human beings, that promote hatred and intolerance, that debase the goodness and intimacy of human sexuality or that exploit the weak and vulnerable.


I think that The Holy Father says it better so I will stop talking now and just give you the like to his talk. Holy Father Pope Benedictus XVI talks about new media

I would love to hear your thoughts about this.
