Egyptian Christians Martyred in Libya

Once again we're reminded that, while we in the West experience such sufferings as people saying mean and untrue things about us, and not showing us the respect we believe we deserve, in a growing part of the world the Church is already in tribulation. This week Islamic State released a video of the mass killing of Coptic Christians in Libya.

Ths link connects to a New York Times article and not the video. I have refused to watch or seek out any of their horror propaganda.

What Would Jesus Do About Measles?

An interesting article from the New York Times. For the record, I not only do I not support a religious exemption for anti-vaxxers, I don't think unvaccinated children should be allowed mix freely with other kids. Their parents don't have the right to put others at risk. And, no, that's not unfair to the unvaccinated kid. They can be vaccinated.
