Planned Parenthood apparently lives by the adage that a lie told loud enough and often enough will be believed. They, and their liberal political and media backers, are doing just that in the face of an avalanche of undercover videos documenting their baby organ sales.

I previously featured aspect the first two videos (here and here). Here are the next 3. I understand there are plenty more. This is systemic, not lone wolfs acting against policy. The videos are not all edited in some magical manner to make them say anything other than what the PP executives happily said (the full, unedited versions are also available for doubters).

If you are a supporter of these ghouls, do NOT believe what you may have heard about the videos. Watch them yourself. These are human bodily organs, harvested from the human beings PP kills.

Christopher Stefanick gives some quick proofs for the existence of God:

The Letters to the Exiles folks take an unusual approach to Christian evangelization. This video is called The Drink for What Ails You:

I like it. It is funny, makes the points well, and does so in a way that can reach people that other approaches do not.

A Marine combat veteran and a Capitol Police officer both share a special bond with a life-saving friend — a dog named Spike. CBS Evening News has the story:

I am not completely comfortable with Wild Bill’s approach, but he does make a good point about how impressively smart those elite atheists are. Or so they think.

— 7 —

A gas station / mini-mart chain in Norway wished to promote their hot dogs. For this, they build one with an 8.5 ton excavator. This is not exactly a piece of “precision equipment.” The operator displays some very impressive skill.

Happy Mother’s Day (Sunday)! Igniter Media offers this encouragement to you overworked moms:

— 3 —

Of course, Mother’s Day is a big commercial opportunity too. Even so, some advertisements are exceptional such as this one from Teleflora:

Spring brings Easter, Mother’s Day, new life. People are not God’s only creatures who celebrate the season! Over the winter, dairy cows remain inside. Imagine their happiness when they are finally left out. Cows are not known for joyous emotional displays, but watch this as they first return to the great outdoors:

Speaking of animal antics, late one night recently a hospital in Australia had a koala bear wander into the emergency room to check it out:

Skiff and AJ continue to explore the interior of a church. In their latest episode (#5), the look at the sanctuary. Yea, I know it is basic, but may be of interest to my non-Catholic readers.

Finally, let’s jump back 70 years to the summer of 1945 when WWII had just ended. Our boys were returning home to normalcy, but Europe had a lot of rebuilding to do. Here is newly released HD color footage of Berlin and other German cities (great at full-screen):

Typical, trashy dolls get a make-over into something desirable and appropriate. The Easter transformation of St. John Cantius in half-a-minute. The self-authored obituary of Emily Phillips. Science proves (and glorifies and exalts) God. Lutheran Satire pokes at atheistic arguments to the contrary.

Father Barron finds many classic Christian themes in the new Cinderella movie. It sounds like a perfect movie for the whole family.

— 3 —

Unlike Cinderella, not everything is suitable for the whole family. Or even the targeted demographic – little girls. I am speaking of the trashy dolls manufacturers make. One lady began “fixing” them and the floodgates of demand have opened. Hopefully manufacturers will notice.

A transformation of the sanctuary must take place after Good Friday in preparation for Easter. Here St. John Cantius in Chicago collapses one such effort to about 30 seconds:

Emily Phillips has died. Beyond friends and family, few knew her. Many more know her now through her obituary – which she wrote.

It begins “It pains me to admit it, but apparently, I have passed away. Everyone told me it would happen one day but that’s simply not something I wanted to hear, much less experience.”

This is an excellent piece of writing, informative and funny. Read it HERE.

We Catholics do not see any conflict between science and God. Eric Metaxas, speaking for Prager University, quite correctly sees science speaking FOR God:

Speaking on the other side, we have atheists like Richard Dawkins. Here, the wacky dudes and dudettes at Lutheran Satire have fun with his poor arguments:

This is something new and a little odd. The folks at Lumen Entertainment make these “What’s What In the Church” videos. They are very short and very basic. Here are Skiff and AJ (the characters):

This week, Chris Stefanick explores saying “yes” to Jesus.

Often (usually?) Jeff Harris at Sword of Peter doesn’t have to be all that clever. Really, just illustrate the news:

— 5 —

Hang Son Doong (located in Vietnam) is the largest cave in the world. No small “hole in the ground”, this is more like a journey to Middle Earth. This video was shot at the entrance and a the first two “dolines” (skylights – 2.5 and 3.5 km in) by a drone.

— 6 —

One of the big misrepresentations of history (along with the Crusades, the Inquisitions,and Galileo of course) is the “dark ages.” Even the label “dark” sounds ominous. Professor Anthony Esolen (a sharp guy, BTW) takes an honest look at those times for Prager University.

— 7 —

Ben Shapiro looks at American Jewish identity. Unfortunately, it’s political, not religious…

At the recent National Prayer Breakfast, President Obama equated IS barbarism (which he refuse to relate to radical Islam) and Christianity. He displayed an amazing ignorance of history, even for him. Bobby Jindal had one of the best responses to the President’s outrageous comments:

It was nice of the President to give us a history lesson at the Prayer breakfast. Today, however, the issue right in front of his nose, in the here and now, is the terrorism of radical Islam, the assassination of journalists, the beheading and burning alive of captives. We will be happy to keep an eye out for runaway Christians, but it would be nice if he would face the reality of the situation today. The Medieval Christian threat is under control, Mr. President. Please deal with the radical Islamic threat today.

The narrative is known well to all and believed by far too many (particularly the idealistic, gullible youth). Hollywood and the media working hand-in-hand to present their ideological truths: abortion empowers women, homosexual “marriage” is a civil rights issue, the government needs to be bigger to justly redistribute wealth, everybody has a basic human need for (frequent) sex, it is perfectly natural (even admirable) to question your gender identity and sexual orientation, entitlement not reward, and so on. Part of this narrative is “fathers are the family idiots” (unless they are gay). It was nice to see this counter-cultural commercial, far closer to reality than usual:
