With a deadline on a writing project about Bl Jerzy Popieluszko coming up fast, blogging is getting the short shrift this week. But with conclave fever running rampant, I had to share two items with you, just in case you hadnt caught them on the larger Catholic news sites.
First, there's a very, very funny video done by Lutheran Satire, making fun of self-styled "devout Catholic women" who believe in basically nothing that the Church teaches, but feel the right to impose their non-belief on the rest of us:

Second, and of a more serious (but still kinda fun) nature, the Adopt a Cardinal Program: you sign in, say a prayer to the Holy Spirit, click a button, and receive the randomly selected name of Cardinal for whom you should pray and maybe fast from now thru the culmination of the conclave. Now there's a way we can all influence the conclave! My cardinal is Juan Cardinal Thorne of Lima, Peru.
Hey! What a great homeschooling project. Have each pupil adopt a Cardinal, and then get busy researching his country of origin, biography, etc.
Have fun everyone! See you on Q&A Day.
