  • All power to the ...

    All power to the man. There are too many people wanting to do immoral and harmful things to society in the name of freedom. So this man wants to cut that out. I would support him fully. After all what is wrong with a place which says pornography is banned? I think our minds are the ones that need cleaning. If Monaghan invited me, I'd love to go live in Ave Maria though I am a Muslim. We seem to share a lot of values. Good is good in any religion and so is clean, pure, kind, noble and character.

    Haha, Yeah I love it when the time comes to pray for Saint Annunciation(the words at :42). Good quality control there CNN.

    I'm sad this couldn't be in Ann Arbor but I'm glad that it's being built somewhere. Go Ave!

  • They want to ...

    They want to exercise their faith in an enviornment which is free from the immorality (and I mean that in many senses) that has run rampant in the rest of the world. They want to practice their religion in a place in which individuals of malicious intent won't interfere. When you see random ruffians yelling explitives at a Church-procession (regardless of the religion) perhaps you'll understand why people want to have a home filled with those of a similar faith.
