Catholic Leader Graces Cover Of Rolling Stone Magazine Joining the ranks of a topless Janet Jackson, scantily clad Red Hot Chili Peppers, a totally nude John Lennon and a surprisingly tame Lady Gaga, Pope Francis has made the cover of this month’s Rolling Stone magazine. The leader of the Roman Catholic Church, with more than one billion followers, is the first pontiff to grace the controversial magazine’s front cover, where Pope Francis is featured in a typical pose – smiling and waving to a crowd above the cover line from the title of Bob Dylan’s song "The times they are a-changin.

Vatican City, Oct 16, 2013 / 02:08 am (CNA/EWTN News).- Pope Francis has donated his Harley Davidson motorcycle to be sold to raise money for a hostel and soup kitchen that serves Rome’s homeless.
“It is a precious gift that has once again made us happy in feeling the closeness of our bishop to the poor of the Church of Rome. We are deeply grateful to Pope Francis for this,” Monsignor Enrico Feroci, the director of Caritas Rome, said at an Oct. 12 press conference.
The sale of the motorcycle will fund the renovation of Caritas’ Don Luigi di Liegro Hostel and Soup Kitchen at Rome’s Termini station. The two projects have operated since 1987 to help relieve the suffering of about 1,000 people every day, Caritas Rome reports.
Msgr. Feroci thanked Pope Francis on behalf of everyone who will benefit from “this act of hospitality and solidarity.” He assured the Pope that the poor will continue to pray for the “precious work that he is doing in the vineyard of the Lord.”

Catholic Priests In Military Face Arrest For Celebrating Mass

The U.S. military has furloughed as many as 50 Catholic chaplains due to the partial suspension of government services, banning them from celebrating weekend Mass. At least one chaplain was told that if he engaged in any ministry activity, he would be subjected to disciplinary action.
“In very practical terms it means Sunday Mass won’t be offered,” Archbishop Timothy Broglio of the Archdiocese for the Military Services told me. “If someone has a baptism scheduled, it won’t be celebrated.”
The Archdiocese for the Military Services tells me the military installations impacted are served by non-active-duty priests who were hired as government contractors. As a result of a shortage of active duty Catholic chaplains, the government hires contract priests.
A well-placed source told me that a furloughed Air Force chaplain was threatened after he offered to forgo pay.
Broglio said some military bases have forbidden the contract priests from volunteering to celebrate Mass without pay.
“They were …More

(Sept. 23, 2013)
Did you know that today is Bisexual Visibility Day?
You may not be aware, but they are at the White House and will be celebrating with an official event.
Seriously, this is not a joke.
Today, in honor of Bisexual Visibility Day there will be a White House roundtable discussion "about issues facing the bisexual community" attracting bisexual activists from around the nation.
This first-time White House event was called to my attention on Sunday when I saw a piece in the Miami Herald with the headline, "A voice for bisexuals, Miami activist heads to D.C."
The piece highlighted Luigi Ferrer, who is program and grants development director for Pridelines Youth Services. The Miami Herald reports:
"I am the Florida representative," said Ferrer, a longtime bisexual activist who joins about two-dozen others at the roundtable, which coincides with international Bisexual Visibility Day on Sept. 23. "They decided to celebrate bisexuality day by inviting the national bisexual …More
