Dear Father Bozek
The unceasing vitriolic attacks by a leading conservative catholic character assassin prompts those of us who admire and love you to assure you that you do not stand alone.
Please pray...
The State of Ohio intends to execute Kenneth Biro today.
Find details at DPIC (Death Penalty Information Center).
Please pray for the victim, and for an end to this outrage.

A necessary new blog
A "Catholic Worker Healthcare Discussion" blog has been created in
hopes to facility this discussion:
http://catholicworkerforum.blogspot.com/
The first entree is a copy of Mona Shaw's Dec via pacis article "The
Quality of Mercy" followed by Brian Terrell's "A Personalist,
Anarchist Response to 'The Quality of Mercy' by a Catholic Worker".
We encourage you to read them both, add your own follow up comments or
take the dialogue into an entirely new direct.
"Let the discussions begin......"

The Bishop's PAC
$100,000 solicited by the Bishops explicitly for political purposes is hard to classify as donations to the church. So how do we separate coins in the poor box from big bucks to subsidize right wing politicians?
Let's ask the tax man.

CAN action on the misuse of $10,000
Dear Friends of CAN,
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you are enjoying time with friends and family this weekend.
* If you can please join us this Sunday at the Cathedral Basilica from 11:30-1:30. This is a time to come together and peacefully tell the Archdiocese of Saint Louis, that there are better uses for the local $10,000 Catholic dollars, than to support the anti-gay marriage ballot measure in Maine. Invite friends to join us. We will be sharing what we think the $10,000 discretionary dollars could be used for locally.

Power of the purse?
The next time the basket comes your way... Hesitate. Think about it.
Consider how your money is likely to be used. Do you really want to promote the political agenda of out-of-touch old white men?

$550,000
That's how much the Catholic Bishops dropped to defeat civil same sex marriage. This thinly veiled 'we hate gays and lesbians' push by the bishops is an outrage to common decency.
Somebody should tell Jesus about these guys.
