Women's Ordination

Published: July 16, 2010 The Vatican has labelled the ordination of women among the "most serious crimes" and a "crime against the faith". In an update to disciplinary rules released by the Vatican this week, cases of "attempted ordination of women" will now be handled by the Vatican's doctrinal watchdog, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF), a Vatican statement said on Thursday. The new rules put attempts at the ordination of women among the "most serious crimes", along with pedophilia, said an AFP report in the Sydney Morning Herald. But Vatican officials emphasized that simply because women's ordination was treated in the same document as priestly sex abuse did not mean the two acts were somehow equivalent in the eyes of the church, said a report by the Catholic News Service. "There are two types of 'delicta graviora': those concerning the celebration of the sacraments, and those concerning morals. The two types are essentially different and their gravity is on different levels," said Msgr Charles Scicluna, an official of the Vatican's doctrinal congregation. The AFP report cites US-based Women's Ordination Conference, an advocacy group, dismissed the decision as "medieval at best" and a "scare tactic". The Vatican is using this attempt to extinguish the widespread call for women's equality in the church."

Kid Jokes

A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales. The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though a whale is a very large mammal, its throat is very small. The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale. The teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human, it was impossible. The little girl said, "When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah".

The teacher asked, "What if Jonah went to hell?"

The little girl replied, "Then you ask him!"

Riders Prayer

Our Father, who is a Rider

Hallowed be thy Canadian game

Thy championship will come, the play will be run At home as it is away.

Give us this day our Sunday win

And forgive us our turnovers

Though we pounce on those who turnover against us And lead us not into 3rd

and long But deliver us the Grey Cup


And a different one:

Our quarterback,

Who art in Edmonton...

Darian be thy name...

Thy game be done,

Thy will be WON,

In Commonwealth

As it was in Mosaic...

Give us this game

The Grey Cup Game

And forget about Calgary's whiners...

As we forgive those

Who can't measure up to us.

Lead us not into interception,

But deliver us from Calvillo...

For thine are the Riders with Power and Glory.

Forever and ever,

The Grey Cup we WILL claim.


Amen

YOUR AGE BY BEER MATH

Don't tell me your age; you'd probably lie anyway-but the LEINIE'S Man will know!

YOUR AGE BY BEER MATH

This is pretty neat.
DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!
It takes less than a minute.
Work this out as you read.
Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out! This is not one of those waste of time things.


1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to have a beer(more than once but less than 10)

2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)

3. Add 5

4. Multiply it by 50 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1760 ..
If you haven't, add 1759..

6... Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.

You should have a three digit number

The first digit of this was your original number
(i.e., how many times you want to have beer each week).


The next two numbers are


YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)


THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2010) IT WILL EVER WORK, BEER Calculator.
