Just like a fork is an instrument used to eat.
Do you use a lot of Christian spoons and knives also? Are there Christian forks? Is there a Christian fork dedicated to Jesus?

No we can't, because there is no strong argument for ornaments placed on trees concerning Jesus Christ.

No, that's in the Bible. The tree, and the jewelry that goes on the tree along with the 25th of December is NOT in the Bible. Therefore we can deny the Tinsel Tree of the Catholic Faith and teach our children the same.

Homosexuals getting married and affecting the politics of our nation, and am going to worry about one month out of twelve? No thank you, we have bigger fish to fry. I suggest we 86 the warm fuzzies and start winning souls in Jesus name the other 11 months.

If you want to quote Winston Churchill:

June 4, 1940
House of Commons

We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender!
Go for it, and you will only prove to the world that you are a religion like any other religion. Man made, like a hand grenade.

In Jesus name

Brother Benincasa
