How 'bout we rename it "The Dalai Lama"???

A city in New Mexico is being sued to have the image of three crosses from the city's official seal. The name of the city? Las Cruces, which is literally Spanish for "The Crosses."

They do this every few years down there.

It's like a hobby or something.

Raison D’Etre

  • “Our entire daily lives cannot be occupied with purely religious practices; all of us have to eat, and most of us have and want to do many other activities besides. So though we cannot always be religious in this sense, we can always be Catholic, that is, the round of our daily activities can be conducted in such a way as to express and be in harmony with our Faith. And [this] can involve more than avoiding sin and exercising virtue.”
