   I wish he would have been more specific as to what constitutes a family. According to the LIbs, a single mom with three kids from different fathers, none of whom is around, is a family. Is that what he's praying for?

   Such a shame what the Libs have done to redefine terms in our society. A family is a mom, dad, and their offspring.

   A fundamental social group in society typically consisting of one or two parents and their children.

   All the members of a household under one roof.

   Or A locally independent organized crime unit

   When a Catholic Pope says "family", in this context, there is no doubt at all about what is meant.

   The mere fact that the question could arise in the first place, is a tribute to the evil effectiveness of the Alinskyite tactics of the marriage corruption movement.

   But be of good cheer!

   North Carolina will give us an opportunity to objectively assess just how effective the marriage corruption movement's Alinskyite tactics have been, come next Tuesday.

   I figure we will rout them by 20

   This is how the AAFP defines a family:
   :The family is a group of individuals with a continuing legal, genetic and/or emotional relationship. Society relies on the family group to provide for the economic and protective needs of individuals, especially children and the elderly. :

   Ooooh, another association heard from.
   Note to self: put together an association so I can dictate as some sort of authority as to how certain terms should be defined....

   This is a critical cause for which to pray, and for which to work. I remember when this Proclamation was published (prophetic, back in 1995). It's needed now, more than ever:

   "We call upon responsible citizens and officers of government everywhere to promote those measures designed to maintain and strengthen the family as the fundamental unit of society."

   And that's exactly what y'all work against.

   Harming families is your goal--that's very straightforward, simple, objective truth!

   Pat:

   Here's a hint for ya.

   If your words above were:

   1. Straightforward
   2. Simple
   3. Objective
   4. Truthful

   You would not have lost thirty one straight elections, with a gigantic, blowout defeat coming up next Tuesday.

   Hope this helps.
