Little Suzy seems to think so! In the “Story of Suzy,” an adorable little girl unknowingly helps the narrator pull back the covers on the act of prayer. Enjoy.

At a meeting with the Catholic media prior to his trip to Italy and audience with Pope Benedict XVI , Obama spoke of the difficulty he is having reconciling his faith with LGBT issues:

“For the gay and lesbian community in this country, I think it’s clear that they feel victimized in fairly powerful ways and they’re often hurt by not just certain teachings of the Catholic Church, but the Christian faith generally. And as a Christian, I’m constantly wrestling with my faith and my solicitude and regard and concern for gays and lesbians.”

For many Catholics and people of faith there is no “wrestling” or struggle. No inner turmoil. Gays are either to repent and abstain from their “lifestyle” or burn for all eternity.

Sure, many will accuse Obama of being two-faced, or criticize him for playing to both sides of the issue. But hopefully some will appreciate his honesty about the struggle. I suspect we would be a lot farther along in the gay civil rights movement if more individuals, more people of faith, also carried that struggle in their heart.

… So it’s perfectly okay to mine for uranium near the Grand Canyon as the earth has already survived most of that time without environmental laws. Ahem. Really? So without further ado, meet Republican state senator Sylvia Allen of Snowflake, Arizona — emphasis on the flake, I think.

And the remark was so offhanded, as if Allen were describing the way the sun comes up every morning… twice. Perhaps she and Sherri Shepard should form a club.

I stumbled across this video today and while I certainly have my doubts about its accuracy, and eventually grew tired of its blatant fear-mongering targeting Muslims, I did come away with ONE inescapable conclusion:

Atheists need to have more babies! And now!
