Dear Anne

.
Recently a popular novelist threw a lil' temper tantrum, where she huffed and puffed and did everything short of holding her breathe, in an attempt to make the Church change truth to please her. Anne Rice's short lived reversion to the Catholic church actually ended before it began, as even in her earliest interviews on the topic, spoke of her desire for her opinions to become Church dogma.

Dear Anne, a Christian isn't someone who loves the Jesus of their imagination, but worships the Truth that is Jesus, regardless if that Truth is not currently trendy or comfortable. You can kick n' scream n' even write silly books where 2+2=7, but the Truth that 2+2=4 will not change no matter how much you cry about it on Facebook.

Recently I wrote "I have come to realize there are only Two Doors in or out of Catholicism;
The Entrance is marked with the word "Truth"
The Exit is marked "Opinion"

and me thinks you tried to sneak in through the latter, but in reality never came in at all
....but yer still welcome of course, just leave yer pride at the door.
God bless,
D'art

More Free Lectures

Found another great Audio site full of interesting talks and lectures for free download. The Institute of Catholic Culture, based in Arlington VA, also lists upcoming events that those of us who are close by can attend.
I think I just may have to attend Dr. Timothy O'Donnell's upcoming Swords Around the Cross : Catholic Ireland & the Nine Years War on August 24 & 31st at Saint Ambrose Catholic Church in Annandale, VA.

I'll stick to Fruits and Veggies



"If lust and hate is the candy,
if blood and love tastes so sweet,
...then we give 'em what they want"

Natalie penned this tune even before Al Gore invented the internet, and before the vile "entertainment" so many of my Catholic and Evangelical Christian friends watch on cable or at the movies.

Me thinks if we prayed half as much as we waste time watching Sex in the City, Glee, or Dexter; than the world would be as peaceful as we "say" we want it to be.

Today's reading

.
"Then I heard the sound of their wings,
like the roaring of mighty waters,
like the voice of the Almighty.
When they moved, the sound of the tumult
was like the din of an army.
And when they stood still,
they lowered their wings.".
Ezekiel 1:24
