Satan and Blogging

Donald R. McClarey

I have always been fairly indifferent to the hits my blog posts receive, possibly since blogging makes up 0.00000 % of my  income.  However, over the years I have noticed that certain topics usually do draw massive amounts of hits.  Here are the top ten:

1.   Anything with Satan in the title.

2.   Sarah Palin-A sure fire blog crowd draw since 2008, and I suspect she will remain so for the rest of her life.

3.   Ted Kennedy-The “lion of the senate” has been dead for five years, but he still ignites intense emotion.  (You leave one, just one, young woman to die in a car and some people hold it against you!)

4.   Obama and canine cuisine.

5.   Jimmy Carter and his senile anti-Catholic rants.

6.   Nancy Pelosi-Good to know that the lying worthless political hack is good for something!

7.   Atheist “heroes”-Looking at you Richard Dawkins!

8.   Pio Nono-The continued fascination for this pope who died in 1878 cannot be underestimated.

9.   Anything with Vatican in the title.

10. Angels-God’s messengers are always a subject of interest for we mere mortals.

Prepare yourself, as best you can, for this forthcoming blog post:

Sarah Palin has a vision in which Satan and Obama are sharing a meal of terriers and poodles.  Ted Kennedy is the waiter and Nancy Pelosi is the waitress.  Jimmy Carter and Richard Dawkins suddenly appear yelling insults against the Vatican.  Pio Nono then materializes and issues a bull saying that this vision is not only unworthy of belief, it is too stupid for the mind of man to comprehend it.  An angel appears and tells Sarah to awaken from her nightmare.  Palin wakens and swears to never eat moose before bed again.

  1. This was a disappointing article. Sort of awkwardly funny but a sure waste of pixels. Not “Catholic Stand” material.

    1. I have to respectfully disagree. I like the short list of topics. I’m sure there are many more. I like to jump into any conversation about Satan. If you read the book of Job, God and Satan fictional characters. I think we should see them as such in everything else as well.

    2. God is the loving Creator (who allows freedom) and Satan is the persecutor against humanity’s cause in the Book of Job. Read GK Chesterton’s book on the Book of Job. You’ll find it an entertaining yet profound interpretation. Full of philosophical riddles.

    3. I wish people would just understand that stories about gods, angels, demons, etc. are just stories. How fictional characters like God and Satan became real to people is something that someone should do a study of.

    4. “I wish people would just understand that stories about gods, angels, demons, etc. are just stories.”

      Incorrect. The Christian religion is based upon revelations from the God who created everything, including atheists like you.

  2. You left out sin; new “marriage”; divorce; abortion; priesthood-males; evolution; sinning by voting; and the limits of science – the mystery of belief. Guy McClung, San Antonio

    1. Sinning by voting. Now that sounds interesting. Religion and politics. It doesn’t get any better than that.

    2. Guy,

      Given how seriously people like you take the concept of sin in general and especially mortal sin, I find it despicable that the Catholic Church would try to influence how my country is governed by threatening its followers by saying it is a mortal sin to vote for anyone or anything that conflicts with its teachings. It makes one wonder just how far it is willing to go to exert power over my government.
