Not to diminish Lugo's role in this but he is not an adult and seems to be more of a victim, less of an accomplice.

You can't call 17 year old Trayvon Martin a child and then in the same breath call this guy a 17 year old "man".

The US has done a good job in recent decades at promoting breast feeding, but we are lacking in support services. We need promotion AND actually help, or else we are setting moms up to fail.

Or be an adult and acknowledge that some weddings carry religious, cultural, and family traditions that yours doesn't and keep your fool mouth shut.

Chemicals are bad. The rest of the natural world is made up of magic. If we would just stick to eating magic, we would never get cancer. I had a Quarter Pounder the other day, I suppose I should probably detoxify with some kind of all natural, organic, something something, diet.

Also, if your Halloween costume needs a nametag, it sucks regardless.

I excuse no one. But the fact remains that the adult men in this situation are both losers — always have been and always will be.

I think that leaving your daughter in a situation where the potential for her to get raped by a predator is probably the wrong call. He's basically saying that he won't bother to clean up his act long enough to make sure his daughter is in a safe environment.

I just don't know what to make of this from a grammatical standpoint. "Fear the D" was easy: Fear DePaul University (i.e., "the D" = DePaul). But "Consent the D"... I mean, I guess they're saying "Consent DePaul University", except that doesn't really make any sense. If were an exhortation (i.e., telling DePaul to…

Not only ignorant, but incredibly US-centric. That attitude assumes that just because a particular something is a certain way in the US, well then, by gosh, it must be that same way in the rest of the world. Even liberal sites like Slate and Jezebel are frequently guilty of it.

I feel similarly annoyed. Just commiserating.

John Paul II (Electric Boogaloo) believed in evolution too.

That was my first thought as well.

This is so annoying. There are many, many things wrong with the Catholic Church but the belief that evolution does not conflict with Catholic teaching has been upheld since the 1950s. Catholic fundamentalism really is quite a different thing from Protestant fundamentalism.

You are right. Pope John Paul II was pretty clear about it.

As has been pointed out numerous times on any number of outlets (including Gawker), this is not new for Catholics. Catholicism has never believed in Biblical literalism, evolution has pretty much always been a non-controversial idea, and the guy who first proposed the Big Bang Theory, Georges Lemaître, was a Catholic…

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't this already established by a previous pope? I didn't really think Catholics were part of the Creationist crowd.

If your sex isn't disgusting, you're doing it wrong

Uhhh...as a Canadian whose hometown was attacked on Wednesday, with several friends involved in the lockdown... I don't find her tweet in the least bit offensive. In fact, it pretty much sums up the POV of many of my friends posting on social media: for us, this is a big deal because gun violence is not a daily/hourly…
