BY LifeSiteNews.com Dear Readers,If there has been any doubt that Development and Peace is indeed funding pro-abortion, pro-contraception groups, today’s story should finally lay that to rest - for the remaining sceptics. Also, we are now certain that if we had the manpower and other resources to undertake on site investigations of all the groups, we would very likely find similar information about many more of them. The pattern is becoming clear. Our reports of incriminating website materials were sufficient to determine a serious problem in every one of those cases (documents do count - that is what the Church itself relies upon most in its investigations), but first hand interviews such as today’s confirm in more detail what we already know from the other materials.Father Raymond Gravel’s public criticism of LifeSiteNews has certainly generated responses from our readers. Check out the letters to the editor.Today is Earth Day (sigh). In the interests of providing alternative news to balance all the pro-Earth Day hype, hysteria and environmental religion evangelizing in the mainstream media and in almost all schools, we provide a report from Wesley Smith and lots of NewsBytes on the subject. A local Catholic high school darkened all the classes for an hour today and the students were asked to pray for the earth -  not for man that he may nurture and continue to be supported by the earth, but for the planet itself, regardless of man - for whom many of us believe it was created. It appears that these near pagan earth ceremonies were conducted everywhere. Ask your children for specific details about what happened at school on Earth Day. About 15 years ago my elementary school children were exposed to a Catholic elementary general assembly Earth Day talk by a social justice pre-occupied Catholic priest who asked them why they were here. One of my son’s put up his hand to answer, "we are here to know, love and serve God." But instead, the priest answered his own question stating, ‘We are here to save the earth".   And then they had a witchcraft type of ceremony in the dark with candles, invoking fire, earth, water and wind. Great, hey? Notre Dame is still very much in the news. What a rebuke from the local bishop! We are finally starting to see some serious action. It’s a nice change from decades of deadly niceness that has allowed most Catholic institutions to lose their Catholic character and their usefulness to the general society.
