Non Catholic Christians and the acceptance of homosexuality
I asked about this at a Catholic forum recently, never having conversed with a non Catholic on this topic before. Others have, apparently, and the gist of the response I received seems to be that most non Catholics think the Cross of the Christ tore down the old [...]

Two hearts ablaze
I’ve picked up this link from Mark Shea’s blog. Visit the Two Hearts ablaze blog devoted to the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts, displaying excerpts from old devotional prayer books.
Back to prayerbooks, by the way, everyone. Reciting prayers from memory just doesn’t work, most of the time you’re just rattling them off without thinking.

Women supressed in the Church? Um…
An infamous little book recently claimed that the Church has been supressing women’s roles from the beginning. As I completed reading St. Paul’s epistle to the Romans, I was astonished to find an entire list of Roman leaders at its end (see ad Romanos 16), about half of them women. [...]

I’ve just purchased Halley’s Bible Handbook, for a bargain Rs. 75 or $1.6. I’m not sure yet of how good it is, but the reviews at the Amazon page are promising: “used by laymen, teachers and ministers, contains more biblical information than any other book of its size”…
Got it as a hardbound book, in almost [...]

The ‘Da Vinci’ code is out in Bombay, I hear. They’re going to have to shoot me and drag me into a cinema to make me watch it. Hear this, Mr. Dan Brown: your ‘fictional’ book is a badly written piece of trash.

Out of a renewed interest, I visited some old reviews of the Passion of the Christ, Mel Gibson’s best movie to date. I’m surprised at how many thought that the movie was anti-Semitic, when all it was doing was reproducing history, as told by the Gospels and Christian tradition.
There was a Rotten Tomatoes review that [...]

A nice prayer for priests
Keep them, I pray thee, dearest Lord,
keep them, for they are thine.
Thy priests whose lives burn out before
thy consecrated shrine.
Keep them, for they are in the world,
though from the world apart;
when earthly pleasures tempt, allure -
shelter them in thy heart.
Keep them, and comfort them in hours
of loneliness and pain.
When all their [...]
