    Adjesumpermarium, rest with God

    Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord, and let eternal light shine upon her. May her soul, and all the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. :crossrc: My sincere condolences to you and your family. She will certainly be missed by many.

    Reilly's Pub

    He's here for the moment. I can't promise I'll be around here much, but thought that I'd stop in for a peak, and noticed that the pub was available. :)

    Tomorrow: Major announcement on Catholic-Anglican relations?

    I *think* that means that they'd be able to set up their own dioceses -- or at least have their own bishops. On another site, someone compared this to the military dioceses that exist in some countries, where there are bishops and priests who don't have a particular territorial jurisdiction...

    If you could predict a future canonized saint, who would you choose?

    I would think that Mother Teresa is pretty close to a slam dunk, given that she's already been beatified. JPII is a possibility, but one that probably needs time to simmer.To pick three people who all died when I was about 2-3 years old -- Dorothy Day, Oscar Romero and Fulton Sheen strike me as...

    Latin Mass Question

    I presume you mean the "traditional" form of the mass, right? :) The homily is in English (or whatever the local language is). The Bible readings are in Latin, but are then typically repeated in English at the beginning of the homily. And the Kyrie is in ancient Greek. Everything else is in...

    Met the Priest

    Let's just say that Mother Angelica has a very firm take on the faith that not everyone is comfortable with. :) It's a big church -- there's room for all types. Glad to hear that you're starting RCIA!

    Bill Donohue Exposes the 'Secular Sabotage'

    I found this passage fascinating: It sounds like he's outright admitting that an argument with complexity and nuance about the foundations of the Evangelical-Catholic rapprochement is unlikely to appeal to his target audience. So instead, he just decided to write a book-length screed about...

    Tribalism Is Unhealthy

    Well, I guess it depends on what the goal was. If it was to give more money to the auto companies, then I guess it's working. And truth be told, I think that was more or less the goal. If it was to help the environment, then it was a remarkably wrong-headed way of doing so. Producing new...

    I need strong prayers for this, I'm worried.

    Will pray. :crossrc: But, I'd take some of Anhelyna's advice to heart as well. :)
