Father Joseph Bachand: Will you now accuse Pope Benedict XVI of "evil"?
Posted by admin / Under Joseph Biederman
Writing for the Associated Press, Nicole Winfield is reporting that, "Pope Benedict XVI issued a blistering denunciation Thursday of priests who have questioned church teaching on celibacy and ordaining women, saying they were being selfish in disobeying his authority. Benedict made the rare and explicit criticism from the altar of St. Peter's Basilica in his homily on Holy Thursday, when priests recall the promises they made when ordained...In his homily, Benedict said the dissidents claim to be motivated by concern for the church. But he suggested that in reality they were just making 'a desperate push to do something to...

PA Hit over Joseph's Tomb Visit
Posted by admin / Under Joseph Biederman
A Shechem-area coordinating committee criticized the Palestinian Authority Friday for this week's daytime visit to the Tomb of Joseph by members of the Knesset Land of Israel lobby and Samarian leaders, according to the Bethlehem-based Ma'an news agency. An announcement by the committee also expressed anger at the PA for providing security for the visit, calling it an affront to the PA population. Among the groups signing the committee's statement were the Popular Front terror group...

Why The Devil Hates Joseph's Tomb...
Posted by admin / Under Joseph Biederman
By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.(Hebrews 11:22)And Joseph said unto his brethren, I die: and God will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land unto the land which he sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence. So Joseph died, being an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he was put in...

Remembering the Wives of Joseph Smith: FANNY ALGER ( Joseph Smith Does a Woody Allen? )
Posted by admin / Under Joseph Biederman
Benjamin Johnson, a close friend of Joseph Smith, described Fanny as, “varry nice and comly, [to whom] everyone Seemed partial for the ameability of her character.” She is generally considered the first plural wife of Joseph Smith. Although undocumented, the marriage of Fanny and Joseph most likely took place in Kirtland, Ohio sometime in 1833. She would have been sixteen years old. At the time, Fanny was living in the Smith home, perhaps helping Emma with house work and the children. Ann Eliza Webb recalls, “Mrs. Smith had an adopted daughter, a very pretty, pleasing young girl, about seventeen years...

The missionary who said he would die for China ‘a thousand times over’ (Catholic Caucus)
Posted by admin / Under Joseph Biederman
Joseph Freinademetz (1852-1908) was a missionary in China. Though often working in acutely hostile conditions – not least during the Boxer Rebellion (1899-1901) – he found himself powerfully drawn to the native population. “Missionary work is useless,” he believed, “if one does not love and is not loved. The greatest scourge for us, as well as for the Chinese, are the crowds of morally inferior Europeans without any religion who swarm all over China. There is no doubt that our heathen Chinese are a hundred times better than these dregs of mankind. “I have come to love my Chinese. I...

Was Joseph Really Suspicious of Mary's Pregnancy?
Posted by admin / Under Joseph Biederman
During this Advent/Christmas season we will turn again and again to introductory chapters of Matthew and Luke. Here I'd like to look at one passage in particular. “Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child of the Holy Spirit; 19 and her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to send her away quietly. 20 But as he considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in...

Joe Sobran, R.I.P. [Joseph Sobran, 1946 - 2010]
Posted by admin / Under Joseph Biederman
Our former NR colleague, Joe Sobran, passed away today after a long battle with a variety of ailments. He was relatively young, just 64, and while physically beaten at the end, he also departed spiritually triumphant. Surely, in short order, there will be ample reflection — much of it critical — on the hyper-talented, hyper-controversial writer. There will be a recounting of his history at NR, the break, the following years, and Joe’s soured relationship with WFB (happily, they rekindled their friendship before Bill passed away). Good, let’s discuss all that, and more. But later. Right now, let us,...

Congressman Anh "Joseph" Cao shies away from partisan debate
Posted by admin / Under Joseph Biederman
Most Republicans are probably thrilled that their party is in striking distance of regaining its majority in the U.S. House this fall. Yet for Anh "Joseph" Cao, the unlikely first-term GOP congressman from the overwhelmingly Democratic 2nd District, the battle for control could make his already uphill re-election run still more steep. (snip) On a personal level, Cao said, "I love the president, and I believe he truly likes me." Cao said he's visited the White House about 10 times -- not counting the Superbowl party that he missed...

Jesus was son of an architect, book claims
Posted by admin / Under Joseph Biederman
Jesus was the son of a middle-class, highly educated architect, according to a new book, which claims the previous belief that Joseph worked as a carpenter has distorted the Bible's meaning. The book- The Jesus Discovery- claims that Jesus rose to become the most senior Rabbi of his time, thus explaining how he was able to exert such influence and why his teachings became such a concern to the authorities. Author Dr Adam Bradford, who works as a GP, drew his conclusions after studying and comparing the original Greek and Hebrew scriptures, as well as using human psychology to analyse...

Joseph: The Earthly Father
Posted by admin / Under Joseph Biederman
Scripture gives just enough information about Joseph to leave us wondering about this behind-the-scenes character in the grand drama of the nativity story. We know Joseph was of the lineage of King David, a devout Jew, a man of integrity, a carpenter, and that he was obedient to God’s instruction. But what were his fears, frustrations, and fulfillments as the adoptive father of God’s only son?
