The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, may
introduce an amendment today that would restrict abortion funding in the Senate
version of the health-care reform bill.
The Senate opens debate on the bill
today at 3. It could be over by Christmas, if Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid,
D-Nev., has his way. Politico.com, the Washington politics website, says that
Reid plans to conduct negotiations on the bill behind closed doors in order to
get the 60 votes he needs for passage—and then move to close debate.
One of
the main aspects of the bill that is keeping even some Democrats from supporting
it is the so-called “public option.”
Hatch’s amendment, though, according to
the Journal, focuses on abortion. It is expected to mirror the Stupak amendment
that narrowly passed the House Nov. 7. That amendment would restrict federal
funding of abortions except in the case of a threat to the mother’s life, or
pregnancy resulting from rape or incest.

Anglicanorum Coetibus
Well, after the release of Anglicanorum Coetibus, one group has decided to come home to the Holy Mother Church. My question is, is that I think some Anglican Bishops wear these thigs called a Chimere. I am wondering if the bishops of the Personal Ordinariates will wear these things. I asked that on Catholic Answers, and one person told we the more Evangelical-leaning Anglican Bishops wear them. On to another topic ...The Traditional Anglican Communion, which includes many churches such as the Anglican Catholic Church of Canada, will be coming back to Rome! The former TAC priests who are married, can become Catholic Priests on a case-by-case basis, but the seminarians the will attend the Seminaries in the Personal Ordinariates will have to be (remaining with Church Traditions) celibate. This is a good thing, a very brilliant thing! The TAC bishops who are married, will only be able to function as Catholic Priests.
The Church of England has shut the door in the face of Anglo-Catholics. Now they are coming to us, and we will warmly welcome them.

Hello Again!
Well hello there! I would like to present to you a nice website of the Latin Mass Sciety of England and Wales. This is a very nice website, and can tell you where the nearest Tridentine Mass is to you. This is very convienient -- if you live in England and Wales (which, unfortunately I don't). For an english saint, though ... lets look at St. Thomas More
Thomas More, was one of the saints who was Martyred in the Tudor dynasty when Catholics were unfortunately being persecuted.
