On Darwin and Deism

https://baixacultura.org/2025/02/01/4qopk4h 16 September 2009 · by Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

https://olashirt.com/i43ay49b9 Much blood has been spilled over Darwin. Debates rage about whether he was a Christian or not. By that I do not mean judgments about his theology or philosophy, but rather whether Darwin thought of himself as a Christian. Quotes are cited back and forth as to whether he “repented” or not of his stance […]

https://sapooni.com/oz6embzu99 Father Orthoduck does not agree with the optimism of the Catholic Archbishop of Moscow. But, one never knows. And, our prayer ought to be for unity. All too often, our prayers for unity are that God will show those near-heathen near-pagan others that they should believe just like we do. Father Orthoduck thinks that when […]

Words have power, maybe, part 03

15 September 2009 · by Fr. Ernesto 5 Comments

I started this series answering a question from one of the readers who has been told the same thing that many of us have been told at one time or another. For instance, we get told that we should not take part in the martial arts because back in China or Japan the martial art […]

Words have power, maybe, part 02

Sadly many of our current conservative Christians go significantly too far in the area of the demonic, and begin to believe illogical and contradictory ideas that have more in common with Hollywood than they do with Christian reality. — quote from yesterday’s post. Before I speak about the illogical ideas, let’s take one post to […]

Words have power, maybe, part 01

Ambien Sale Online 13 September 2009 · by Fr. Ernesto 2 Comments

On one of my recent posts, a person commented: I’ve heard the danger of reading cult literature because “words have power” or something, and that to actually fight spiritual demons would open one to a world of things most people really couldn’t cope with. How can one be sure what is fiction, “truth/partial-truth in story […]

Note on Alzheimer’s from the iMonk

The quote below comes from part of a post by Internet Monk. Went to the post office this morning (I love Saturday mail. Please don’t cancel it) and there was an old friend sitting in his car. His wife was in the PO. Big, strong strapping man. Incredible physical shape for a man in his […]

ACORN has extremists within it

11 September 2009 · by Fr. Orthoduck 7 Comments

Father Orthoduck has previously pointed out that there are some real whack jobs on the right wing. They deliberately twist the truth and consider themselves to be justified because they are preventing a worse evil. There is a willingness to lie and distort the truth because the ends justifies the means. They violate God’s call […]

On Joe Wilson and incivility

10 September 2009 · by Fr. Orthoduck 20 Comments

Father Orthoduck is drifting farther and farther away from the Republicans with whom he voted during the late 1980’s and into President George Bush’s second election. The drift began during President Bush’s first term as the debate about illegal immigration heated up. You see, Father Orthoduck was working in an inner city area, and among […]

No hell, no dignity.” Flannery O’Connor, 1959 Mary Flannery O’Connor was a southern writer and a Roman Catholic. She died in 1964 having written two novels and 32 short stories. […]
