https://oevenezolano.org/2024/08/hignruap This is a bit of a parallel piece to a post on Internetmonk called Conversations in the Great Hall. Let me start with the same quote from C.S. Lewis with which the other article started: I hope no reader will suppose that “mere” Christianity is here put forward as an alternative to the creeds of […]

Self-portraits are painful
https://blog.extraface.com/2024/08/07/wxvuk6dy6ob The comic above has a very accurate point when one character says, “In our haste to render each other in the worst possible way, we’re actually creating self-portraits.” We are at a particularly particularly frustrating-for-me time in the history of this country. We are not listening to each other. We are not using logic. We […]
Yes, thank you

https://nedediciones.com/uncategorized/s8qduy6 As children many of us were taught to say our evening prayers. Often they were little short phrases, as befits a child learning to pray. And so we would say prayers like: Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep, If I shall die before I wake, I […]
Love and hurt–true cliché
· by Leave a Comment
Best Place To Buy Xanax Uk While a bit of a cliché, there is some significant truth to the quote above. “The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.” Scripture and Holy Tradition both tells us over and over again that we are imperfect. That means that we sin. More […]
The Orthodox World and Europe

Hierarchical Churches and American culture–ouch
Catholic Republicans are developing a pope problem. Earlier this month, Francis recognized Palestinian statehood. This summer, he’s going to issue an encyclical condemning environmental degradation. And in September, just as the GOP primary race heats up, Francis will travel to Washington to address Congress on climate change. Francis may be popular with the general public, […]
Change and confusion
Lately Cuba has been undergoing change. And, by lately, I mean over the last decade or so. But, this makes life difficult for any Cuban who left Cuba in the time immediately after the revolution (and over the next two decades). You see, there is a battle between the emotional memories of what happened to […]
What does it mean to be good?
I like the comic above because it reminds me of Jesus talking to the rich young ruler. Now a certain ruler asked Him, saying, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One,that is, God. You know the […]
Oratorical Festivals and important saints to know
An edited version of this post was submitted to another website This is a more direct version. I was privileged to be present at an Oratorical Festival yesterday. Listening to the junior and senior grade divisions I was impressed with the amount of work that they had put into their verbal deliveries. But, more than […]
A small hitch for Young Earth Creationists
For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. – Romans 1:20, ESV. One of the major principles of Protestant Biblical Interpretation by Bernard Ramm is found in the following […]
