I am a multi-blogger, working on several blogs at once.
Thank God we don't have to limit ourselves to just one blog!
I am a Jewish convert to Catholicism, blogging on a variety of subjects. The motto for this blog is: "Rejoice always, pray constantly, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition.

Reading one of The "Pollyanna" Books
Eleanor H. Porter wrote only two "Pollyanna" books before her death, but these books, and Pollyanna herself, were so popular that the publisher commissioned other writers to continue the series. I'm now reading
"Pollyanna's Western Adventure", by Harriet Lummis Smith.

This Makes NO Sense At All
First of all, I want to make it as clear as I can that I absolutely oppose the death penalty, and for the same reason I oppose abortion, assisted suicide, and euthanasia. I oppose these things because taking a human life is playing God.
However, the most vicious criminal can be executed by lethal injection; in other words, put to sleep like a beloved pet. Meanwhile, innocent babies are being torn limb from limb in their mothers'wombs.

Euthanasia: Mercy, or Murder?
Is euthanasia mercy, or is it murder?
I say, it all depends.
If we are talking about a sick, suffering animal who cannot be helped
any other way, then it is mercy. It is the last, and the hardest, loving
act we do for a cherished pet.
But when it comes to a human being, then it is murder. Yes, it is hard, very hard, to watch a loved one suffer. When my Baba was dying from stomach cancer, I prayed that God would take her, and when He did, I thanked Him for ending her suffering.
Yes, I thanked Him, but He was the only One Who had the RIGHT to end that suffering.
I would never have done anything to hasten Baba's death, even by an hour. Even by a minute. Even by a second.

I Support A Woman's Right to Choose Not to Have Children
Yes, I support that right, as long as she
also chooses to remain unmarried and a virgin.

A Post from My Old Blog
There are children's authors who are pro-abortion. HELLO!!! How many of their books do these authors expect an aborted child to read?
