This Good Friday

Andrea Mantegna, Calvary

The above image is posted at Laura Wood's The Thinking Housewife. Laura has posted paintings depicting Christ's ordeals through these holy days.

Also, on this Good Friday, Laura reminds us of the darkness of our times, by posting an article titled New York: City of Mohammed:

NEW YORK CITY becomes more and more congenial to Islam by the day. The Police Department recently announced that it will disband a surveillance unit that sent undercover detectives into Muslim neighborhoods for the purpose of identifying potential terrorists. The program, started in the wake of 9-11, was dropped in response to civil rights complaints, including civil rights complaints by Muslims.

And, Bill de Blasio continues to pledge to put Muslims holidays on the school calendar. According to one estimate, ten percent of New York public school students are Muslim

It is not enough to "observe" Good Friday this Easter, nor to optimistically wish each other Happy Easter on Sunday. Our calling now is bigger than words and songs. We have our enemies to ward off. We have to prepare for this.
