Archipishop Hughes’ Decision Unfair

Archbishop Hughes has announced plans to takes $8.3 million intended for repairs to Epiphany of Our Lord School and use in for projects in Mandeville and St Bernard. It’s a move that Councilwoman Cynthia Hedge-Morrell will fight, saying that the funds should be used at other New Orleans Catholic schools and community centers in District D that have taken on the students of the now closed Epiphany.
“The children of District D should benefit from these FEMA funds, which could be used to improve the quality of education in our area,” said Councilmember Hedge-Morrell. “When I first became aware of the Archbishop’s proposal, I sent a letter to FEMA encouraging them to reinvest those funds in our community, either in a community center at Corpus Christi or at St. Leo the Great Catholic School where Epiphany students now attend. I think it is essential that the parishioners of the four Catholic Churches in the district be involved in the Archdiocese’s decision. The parishioners raised millions of dollars to build those churches and schools, and they must be respected regarding the use of the FEMA funds.”
Councilmember Hedge-Morrell plans to contact FEMA directly and request that Archbishop Hughes meet with parishioners from the four impacted parishes in the near future to discuss possible uses of the FEMA funds.
The Tribune is encouraged by the councilwoman’s concern in this matter and urges all Catholic Church parishioners in District D to join Councilman Hedge-Morrell in letting both FEMA and Archbishop Hughes know how they feel about this.
Like many other areas in this city, Black Catholic churches lost much in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. It was bad enough that the archdiocese chose not to rebuild Epiphany, but siphoning funds meant for that church to other areas outside of New Orleans and District D is completely unfair. This community must be made whole, and funds designated to serve this area ought to remain in this area. That’s what we say? what cha say? Is Archbishop Hughes’ decision right? Or should those more than $8 million meant for Epiphany stay in the community?

    Religious gangs

    A religious gang war has left one dead body on the ground. Religious gangs are picking up their aggressive mode, and blood is flowing on the land of USA.

    Wichita is only one of the many places where religious gangs congregate and kill, or get killed.

    These gangs wear special gang attire, black robes, hats, collars. They wear symbols, ominous black crosses, threatening pointed ninja-like stars, swastikas, half-moon scimitar like flags, eagles, spiked wheels, lions, all symbols of gangs of a medieval obscurantism where ignorance prevail.

    All religions subjugate women, and force girls into humiliating submission.

    Often they mutilate newborn boys and girls in the name of their religious gang recruitment procedures.

    Secret indoctrination and initiations follow, tightening the noose around their own gang members.

    It is time for all governments around the globe to condemn these gangs, that in the name of some fake non-existing irrational invalid concept of god.

    Stop Religious Gangs and their Gang Killings.

    Stop indoctrination and brainwashing.

    No to “Gott mit uns”! No crosses, no stars, no half moons, stop gang symbols, stop gang clothing (mitra, turbans, burka, pancakes), stop religious hatred and religious gangs, stop secret religiuos gang ceremonials, rites, rituals, and “god’s gang” initiations.

    The text here below, “A Philosophical Platform”, summarizes in the most concise way the conceptual reality of humanity. This is neither a school of thought, nor propaganda for a certain belief, nor a concoction of superstitions. It is pure philosophy, “philos sophos”, love of knowledge, passion for wisdom, and therefore not a path that your learn or follow, but a conceptual structure that you arrive at by thinking rationally and reasoning logically.

    A PHILOSOPHICAL PLATFORM

    1 The human mind processes concepts.

    2 Valid concepts are those that represent reality.

    3 Reality is composed by matter, by mental processes, and by social phenomena.

    4 Matter is composed by all tangible objects, simple and complex.

    5 Mental processes are all the activities of the human mind.

    6 Social phenomena are all the manifestations of all social relations.

    7 All reality can be experienced, directly or indirectly.

    8 All concepts of reality acquired through direct experience are valid.

    9 All concepts of reality acquired through indirect experience need to be validated by each individual.

    10 Validation is the process of relating the concept back to the reality that it represents, namely matter, mental processes, or social phenomena.

    11 The individual is at the same time matter, repository of mental processes, and component of social phenomena.

    The above text describes all reality, subjective and objective, narrow and broad, particular and general, small and big, tree and forest, personal and professional, individual and social, superfluous and essential, inconsistent and consistent, the symbol and the content, the form and the substance, the part and the whole.
