I think this is a very honest statement for Matt Foreman to make. WASHINGTON, February 14, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - In a public statement last Friday, Matt Foreman, outgoing Executive Director of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, rattled the homosexual activist community by joining the Centers for Disease Control ...

One of the joys I experience with working in the Church is the low pay. Now, hold on a moment, you say, how can low pay ever equal to joy? Doesn’t more money mean more freedom?Not necessarily. Having a higher salary often means having higher expenses, more bills to pay, and often a greater degree ...

I used to like reading Mr Brown’s blog, but lately, his posts seem to be full of sarcasm. I’m not a big fan of sarcasm, because it implies hidden anger or arrogance. Take this post for example, about a ChannelNewsAsia report on the search effort for Mas Selamat. Either Mr Brown is an angry person, ...

Under renovation was a People Like Us hangout cafe along Yio Chu Kang Road. I had mixed feelings when I saw this.The first thing I ...

Barely two weeks ago, I wrote a post about Why Your Parish Should Have A Website, where I critiqued the websites of some parishes, and explained the advantages of having a parish website. In the same post, I wrote about Church of St. Mary of the Angels had a beautiful website, but limited itself to ...

I started my Remedial Training (RT) yesterday, my first time in close to two years. Why? What happened?Well, RT is for physically unfit guys like me who can’t pass their IPPT (Individual Physical Proficiency Test, I think). I haven’t passed mine in 10 years. Anyway, for RT regulars like me, the army came up with ...

A neighbour of mine has an physically abusive son. He frequently quarrels with his parents and often comes home drunk and violent. Their quarrels can be heard many houses away. Yesterday morning, at about 6.30am, I heard banging on the walls (of my house) and went out to investigate. I heard ...

I caught the movie Jumper on Saturday. It’s a science fiction filmed based on the novel of the same name written by Steven Gould. It is directed by Doug Liman and stars Hayden Christensen (Anakin Skywalker) and Samuel L. Jackson. It has quite an interesting concept. A jumper is one ...

12 Mar The Lofty Baker A beggar came and sat before me. “I want bread,” he said. “How wise you are,” I assured him. “Bread is what you need. And you have come to the right bakery.” So I pulled my cookbook down from my shelf and began to tell him all ...

It makes no sense to have an official removed from his position if he was not directly responsible for the escape of Mas Selamat bin Kasturi. We definitely shouldn’t be looking to put the blame on someone who wasn’t at fault. What good would it do to have a person lose his job for something ...

When I was in school, I distinctly remember learning that if Singapore were to survive, it has to depend on its only natural resource - people. How is it then that we have been spending the past 20-30 years committing suicide using population control?We are now feeling the effects of the aggressive ...
