The 20 percent atheists out there…

Nobody believes in nothing so everyone has a religion and is very religious. The question is who does people believe on or worst, what they believe on.

The issue is not that atheists do not believe in a living God, but that they believe on anything as their conveniently tailored, gods.
What this result on is the confrontation of selfishness versus love with the believers on anything on the side of selfishness because what they believe on must be oriented towards their own egos, their own gain, their own pleasure.
It is inconceivable to have a person without a living God, the one and only living God; to be capable of expressing true love because after all love is giving selflessly and without expecting anything in return.
Hate is not the opposite of love, selfishness is, as peace is not the opposite of war but just embracing the truth, the absolute truth and not something constructed to satisfy pride, ego or hedonism as mere relativism.
There is therefore not much to be understood about these people in the 20% of the equation and in fact, I would dare to suggest that it is much more than that because people nowadays tend to forget their creator to choose the path to hell because it appears to be more appealing to that suggested great majority.
The answer to this is not in statistics but in the hearts of each and every person, who needs to seek on his/her own for the truth. For the purpose, enough has been showed to us and we should be able to see the truth before us, from the bible, the Ten Commandments and from the teachings of Jesus, only Son of God made Man for our salvation, as recorded in the Gospel and the truth about the Sacraments.
The big problem of our days is that relativism wants to take over and while Christ asked us to deny ourselves, take our cross and follow Him, these new found 'sect' pretend us to deny the truth and our humanity while keep our selfishness going and throw our crosses to everyone but ourselves.
The real issue is therefore selfishness versus selflessness, absolute truth versus relativism, good versus evil, the confrontation that has gone on since the beginning.

When God is offended, should we become violent?

Our God is all love and truth, who asks from us humility and forgiveness. Our God is the only living God. He has the word of eternal life. Observing the process of the current protests in the Middle East and many other places in the world by the so called followers of Islam, presumably outraged because they do not like what is being presented in a film about their prophet; it is interesting to distinguish that factual truth, about what is missing in the whole staging of these protests and it is precisely, truth, love, humility and forgiveness and it is not precisely from the ignorant mobs perpetrating the assaults under the direction of their evil leaders, but from the ones supposedly protecting the basic and fundamental freedoms we all in the western civilization which is founded in Christianity, have for granted.

Common Good

It is often found commentaries that describe common good as extremes of anarchy, as expressions that on one end present a justification for system interference and on the other as an idea of omnipotence over the people who is typically labeled as mediocre and incapable of deciding on their own about their matters and circumstances. However, common good is divine a mandate we all have as individuals; to aim for and to work towards. It is what defines the relationship between science and reason, because a science where its object is to benefit only the self or to enhance the egos of the recipients is what defies reason and so it segregates itself from faith which is what make us creatures of God with dignity, identity and individuality because care exists for our neighbor and peer. Common good cannot be taking or confiscating from some to give to others or to pretend that by robbing from the ones that have to presumably give to the have not, the issue is fairly addressed. On the contra...

He said this to test Philip, for He himself knew what He was going to do

Gospel text ( Jn  6,1-15) :  Jesus went to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, near Tiberias, and large crowds followed him because of the miraculous signs they saw when He healed the sick. So He went up into the hills and sat down there with his disciples. Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand. Then lifting up his eyes, Jesus saw the crowds that were coming to him and said to Philip, «Where shall we buy bread so that these people may  eat ?». He said this to test Philip, for He himself knew what He was going to do. Philip answered him, «Two hundred  silver coins would not buy enough bread for each of them to have a piece». Then one of Jesus' disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said, «There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what good are these for so many?». Jesus said, «Make the people sit down». There was plenty of grass there so the people, about five thousand men, sat down to rest. Jesus then took the loaves, ga...
