Barak Obama and ‘my fair lady’ (Notre Dame)
Well ‘my fair lady’ Notre Dame has fallen from grace, with their invitation to President Barak Obama to come and speak at their graduation ceremony. Not only was it offensive to have him as the guest speaker at this ‘supposedly’ Catholic college but they went even further by giving him an honorary law degree. Listening to the president of the college speak and then to President Obama I was struck with sadness. They have both decided to trivialize the killing of innocent children into just a debate that is not something that we should get upset about. I wonder if the President was an avowed racist or ‘homophobic’ if Notre Dame would have invited him to come and speak at their school? Of course not, because those are values that the liberals hold dearly and are not willing to compromise on. But when it comes to saving the lives of unborn children we are all told that we should be willing to listen to those who support this practice and be willing to have open discussion.
I am sad to see that the Catholic Church lacked the oversight and spiritual authority to put a stop to this invitation. This school has acted in open deviance to the stated doctrine of the Catholic Church on the value of all human life and no one, bishops nor the archbishops have called them to account for this. This is a sad day for our country as we see another spiritual institution fall to the social pressures of our day. May God forgive our country for this terrible tragedy and may He raise up strong men and women to help put a stop to this moral decay.

It is definitely a sign of the times that we are in Pastor Dave (Matthew 24:12). It's a time as men and women of God that we need to stand strong and pray for this country!
