Here is a Mass kit for little boys by Wee Believers.. This is way cool.
Though what about dissident little girls who want to be priestesses? Surely someone can come up with with a women’s priest kit which would include poncho, stunningly ugly stole, chalice made out of earthenware, home made hosts made out of material surely to crumble, and a subscription to the National Catholic Reporter.

Tired of all those voting guides and varying statements. Well here is the tried and true way for the Catholic vote which has worked for years.
Step 1: Pick the candidate you like most.
Step 2: Then justify it via selective quotes from the Catechism and other Church documents.
That’s all there is to it.
Coming to you on EWTN!
Our brand new show is a story of clergy and laity with extraordinary liturgical abilities who fight against the various liturgical catastrophes around the world. Our liturgical heroes do not have superhuman abilities, but follow the supernatural inspirations of grace in the reform of the reform.
Our heroes include Pope Benedict XVI, Cardinal Pell, Cardinal Hoyos, Cardinal "do-it-yourself liturgy is over" Arinze, Monsignor Marini, Father "Slavishly accurate liturgical translations" Z, Father Fessio S.J., Helen Hull Hitchcock, Jimmy Akin, Colin Donavan, Shawn Tribe and a cast of thousands dedicated to protecting and enriching the liturgy.
Each week our heroes fight against villains that do no simply rollover at the mention of the GIRM. A good action show requires capable villains that you love to hate and you won’t be disappointed by villains such as Bishop Fishperson and his hordes of liturgist minions such as Syler the liturgist who has the power to suck the beauty out of anything he touches. Though this is actually a common power to most liturgists who suck the liturgy dry of beauty in the name of relevance. Each week you will be sitting on the edge as you wonder will the heroes defeat the plans of Fr. Richard S. Vosko in his latest wreckovation scheme or whether a clown Mass will go on as scheduled.
So whether our heroes are fighting to protect against attempts to quash the Extraordinary Form of the Mass or ensuring that the Ordinary Form of the Mass is celebrated as it was intended you will stand up and cheer as our heroes go up against the worst of liturgical villains each week.
"Heroes" is an epic drama that chronicles the lives of those protecting the liturgy and go beyond just griping and moaning about it. This is must see TV to save our litugy.
I am starting to feel sorry for Doug Kmiec. After his most recent article for the L.A. Times in defense of Obama on abortion you got to wonder how deep of a hole he is willing to dig for himself. At the rate he is going he is going to run into copyright infringement on Jules Verne’s Journey ot the center of the earth.
I do wonder how he found himself in this predicament of going from a vocal Gov. Romney supporter to a vocal Sen. Obama supporter which is not exactly a normal progression. Though maybe it is not as hard to go from saying that Mitt Romney is now pro-life and had a pro-life conversion to saying that Sen. Obama is the best hope to reduce abortion. Though the defense of Romney is at least plausible.
Sometimes I get the sense that Kmiec went to Sen. Obama in a fit of pique instead of being willing to support McCain and he has been trying to justify himself ever since.
Now many of us probably have taking a position that we later realized was foolish, but were too prideful to admit our mistake. Though when you take such a public position, pride can really kick in to keep you from saying "What in the world was I thinking, boy did I screw up."
This is why I propose a "Witless Protection Program." The Witless Protection Program would take people who took really stupid public stances and relocate them to somewhere else in the United States and give them new names and new lives. U.S. Marshals would oversee the Witless Protection Program or Witless Security Program (WitlessSec) and make sure that the Witlesses stay our of political life or make future stupid public opinions.
I am sure that if Doug Kmiec was offered such a program he would surely avail himself of it. Surely it would be a relief to be able to stop defending Obama as someone who would actually reduce abortions. He wouldn’t have to explain how the The Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) which Obama promised to sign as soon as presented to him which overrides all existing restrictions on abortion in the states will actually reduce abortion. So write your Senator and Congressmen and support the Witless Protection Program to help save so many like Professor Kmiec.
In a stunning development that’s left the political world shocked, accusations are surfacing from a blog called CMR that Presidential candidate Barack Obama may have at one time been a fetus.
Although Obama has consistently pushed a radical anti-fetus agenda throughout his political career, a revelation that he was actually a fetus at one time could sink his campaign among hard-core Democrats.
“The Democratic leadership does not like fetuses,” said one high ranking source in the Democratic Party. “To find out this late in the game that Barack Obama may have been a fetus is very disturbing for a lot of us.”
Some DNC officials are saying they feel “lied to.”

A reader sent me a link to a site and say "Now I’ve seen everything." The site is sspxsingles.com. Though I can understand the reason for the site. It is annoying to advertise yourself as SSSPXWF (Single Society Saint Piux X White Female) in the local newspaper in their singles section.
I wonder if there is a Sedevacanist Singles for those who go further than most in the SSPX and say there hasn’t been a valid pope since Pope Piux the XII. Maybe a dissidentsingles.com for those of the progressive bent.
Ironically those looking to get married within an SSPX chapel will end up staying single. Marriages in an SSPX chapel are invalid and illicit. They do not have the faculties to hear confessions or to perform marriages from the local ordinary. Other sacraments are valid though.
These are some of the new faith focused Obama merch and it looks like Catholics got singled out first, but there is suppose to be gear for other denominations coming.
The kind soul that I am I thought I would give Obama a hand to get out his message to some specific groups.
Oddly Obama has no gear of Atheists and no site called nofaith.barackobama.com for them. Plus where is Wiccans for Obama08 or Pagans for Obama08?
I have been waiting for some merchandise from the McCain website to come out and it is finally here.
Sen. McCain has been long known to poke the right in the eye (he is more dangerous than a Daisy Red Ryder BB Gun). And no doubt he will continue to do it, especially if he becomes president. Pro-lifers got an eye poke when the McCain campaign recently ran an ad in support of stem-cells that made no distinction between embryonic and adult stem cells and he has yet to run one pro-life ad. McCain supports the evil of ESCR in the form of using the lives of human embryos created from IVF for research and he does not support creating embryos for research. But an ad such as this makes this murky and that the intrinsic evil he supports might be broader than what his campaign site says. So the McCain Poke Guard will really come in handy and I am ordering a set and I hope the lenses are very strong.
Whatever they put in the water at the last bishop’s meeting I hope they keep using it. Spinal-fluoride to prevent truth decay.
