Today on Kresta - September 29, 2011

Talking about the "things that matter most" on Sept. 29

4:00 – Kresta Commentary

4:20 – The Mystery of Israel and the Catholic Church
Today Jews celebrate the feast Rosh-Hashanah. We take the opportunity to talk about the mystery of Israel and the Church. Lawrence Feingold presents a theology of Israel and her beautiful mission in salvation history from the perspective of the Catholic faith.

5:00 – Toy Plane Terror Plot Averted
A 26-year-old Massachusetts man was busted yesterday in a bizarre plot to attack the Pentagon and US Capitol with remote-controlled model planes packed with explosives. Rezwan Ferdaus, a US citizen, was radicalized by watching jihadist Web sites and planned to kill “enemies of Allah” in an elaborate plot hatched a year ago, according to the Justice Department. We talk with Islamic terrorism expert Robert Spencer.

5:20 – Bishops Speak Out Against HHS Mandate and Urge Faithful to Do Likewise As Deadline Looms
New HHS rules mandating contraception and sterilization insurance coverage could cause the ‘persecution’ of Catholic institutions, Auxiliary Bishop James Conley of Denver has said. “In opposing unjust laws, we can positively articulate the truth we have been given. In the weeks and months to come, we can witness to the Catholic belief that sexual relations are a beautiful and integral part of marriage, and that contraceptives rob them of their true and full meaning,” he said in his latest Denver Catholic Register column. If a new federal rule goes into effect, coverage for sterilization and contraception would be mandatory for many Catholic institutions’ health-insurance plans. If implemented, the bishop said, “there could be persecution ahead for Catholic institutions.” We talk with Michael Hernon of Franciscan University and Jeanne Monahan of the Family Research Council.

5:40 – Gold and The Markets
The price of gold has been fluctuating the past week while the markets are bouncing back from significant drops two weeks ago. George Schwartz of Schwartz Investment Counsel Inc. and the Ave Maria Family of Funds is here to look at the Fed, gold, the markets and more.
