Haiti pictures

My Churches Sister Parish in Haiti was destroyed in the Earthquakes that happened recently.  I have received pictures of what is left.

Here is St. Genevieve before the Earthquake:

And St. Genevieve after the Earthquake (I fuzzed out the faces for privacy reasons):

It’s amazing to me that we are on this blog arguing about the whiners who don’t want to wear clothing according to a dress code when the boys in the background of this picture would just like to have their Church and School back.  They would like to have clean clothes, clean water and 3 square meals a day.

I am putting these pictures up so we can get our lives in perceptive.  Why are 1st world countries spending money on frivolous lawsuits so everyone can “feel good about themselves” when there is such devastation and poverty going on in the world?

Anyone else see the difference?

“Never have so few given so much for so many”

- Winston Churchill

But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing,
nor do you consider that it is better for you that one man should die instead of the people, so that the whole nation may not perish."
He did not say this on his own, but since he was high priest for that year, he prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation,

“Logic clearly dictates that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few”

- Mr. Spock

“To those who tell us we should be willing to give up abortion rights in order to get other health-care reforms, we respond with a resounding ‘No, We will not trade off the rights and needs of some women for the benefit of others.”

Down’s Syndrome unborn up; Down’s Syndrome born down

Oh, this is just completely disgusting to think about

Women who delay motherhood have led to a sharp rise in the number of babies diagnosed with Down’s Syndrome over the past 20 years.

Records show a 71 per cent increase in cases detected in the womb – up from 1,075 in 1989/90 to 1,843 in 2007/8. Vanity

But the rate of infants actually born with Down’s has fallen slightly over the same period owing to improved testing and subsequent abortions.

The proportion of couples diagnosed with a Down’s pregnancy who decided to terminate has remained constant at 92 per cent.

But the actual number of abortions has risen because more babies are now being diagnosed with Down’s, the study showed.

The authors concluded: ‘Increases in maternal age would have caused a 48 per cent increase in births with Down’s Syndrome in the absence of terminations between 1989/91 and 2005/7.

‘However, terminations of Down’s pregnancies due to an increase and improvements in antenatal screening have caused the number of live births with Down’s remain constant.’
