Religious Quote: Joseph Ratzinger

A just laicism allows religious freedom. The state does not impose religion but rather gives space to religions with a responsibility toward civil society, and therefore it allows these religions to be factors in building up society.
Joseph Ratzinger

Not all moral issues have the same moral weight as abortion and euthanasia. There may be legitimate diversity of opinion even among Catholics about waging war and applying the death penalty, but not... with regard to abortion and euthanasia.
Joseph Ratzinger

Having a clear faith, based on the creed of the church is often labeled today as fundamentalism. Whereas relativism, which is letting oneself be tossed and swept along by every wind of teaching, look like the only attitude acceptable to today's standards.
Joseph Ratzinger

The wrath of God is a way of saying that I have been living in a way that is contrary to the love that is God. Anyone who begins to live and grow away from God, who lives away from what is good, is turning his life toward wrath.
Joseph Ratzinger

To me, its seems necessary to rediscover - and the energy to do so exists - that even the political and economic spheres need moral responsibility, a responsibility that is born in man's heart and, in the end, has to do with the presence or absence of God.
Joseph Ratzinger

The Cross is the approbation of our existence, not in words, but in an act so completely radical that it caused God to become flesh and pierced this flesh to the quick; that, to God, it was worth the death of his incarnate Son.
Joseph Ratzinger

We are moving toward a dictatorship of relativism which does not recognize anything as for certain and which has as its highest goal one's own ego and one's own desires.
Joseph Ratzinger

Allison Andes- If I Was 2 Inches Tall...

Author’s Note: Being 2 inches would be a fun experience. This story is about me being 2 inches tall. Watch out I might bite!

How would you like to be 2 inches tall?That is the size of my pinky finger. That is really small! Being that small would be really fun because you can scare people and pop your eyes out at them like Theodore in Alvin and the Chipmunks and act all cute and everything. The disadvantage of being 2 inches tall is that people would step on you and probably not notice. Being 2 inches tall would sometimes be fun and sometimes, not so much.

Being 2 inches tall would be awesome because I could go to my farm and ride my My Little Pony named Pinky. Then I could ride my horse to Barbie’s house and ride with Ken on his motorcycle  to my Gingerbread house and lift weights that are noodles. After that, I could go to the big Christmas Tree in the human house that I live in. Around that Christmas tree I could ride on their choo-choo train and go “Toot Toot!” After I ride the train then I would have dinner crumbs from the giant humans. I would also go around and bite peoples foots. After that, I would brush my teeth with a candy cane and sleep on my smores bed.

There are a lot more things that I would do if I was 2 inches tall. It would be so much fun and it would be the greatest experience of my life and people would love me. If a scientist ever asked to shrink me then I would do it to have the greatest experience and do all the things in the last paragraph. If a scientist asked to shrink you, would you do it?
