God asked Moses to lead his people out of slavery. Elijah was to live on Mt. Carmel for a time, relying on birds to bring him food. Teresa of Avila had the honor of founding a new Carmelite order, and Therese of Lisieux was called to join it and attain great humility and holiness at […]

We all remember the line from “When Harry Met Sally,” when Meg Ryan is giving a demonstration (in a public eating establishment) of how easily a woman can… uh… fool a man with a convincing fakery. In real life, fakery rarely fools anyone. I’m not talking here about sex, mind you. I’m talking about most […]

I’ve never cared for philosophy, as a general discipline. When I’ve taken philosophy in school, I sneeringly thought to myself that a philosopher is merely an opinionated person who forgets to put “I think…” in front of his opinions. Often it’s true. Occasionally, it isn’t, and we find a nugget of gold in the writings […]

Once we finish the course, I plan to keep the notebook to share with my kids […]

New Year memes, to be specific. Thanks to Enbrethiliel of Sancta Sanctus for the tag. What was your favourite movie in 2005? I’m not sure there’s even any question here. December’s trip to Narnia was just what I hoped for. Excellent casting, nice effects, and true to the story. Sure, they made the occasional small […]

I don’t usually duplicate Joel’s content, but this one was too good not to pass along. My apologies to Siena, Davy, and all the other blondes I know!

I usually stay out of the evolution debate entirely. The fact is that I don’t consider it very important to know how God created the world. I know Who created the world, and that’s what matters. If He chose to make it in a literal seven days, or in seven evolutionary eras, it really doesn’t […]

Dear Santa, I know it’s kind of last minute, but I thought I ought to contact you before Christmas, just to make sure there are no misunderstandings between us. I haven’t been perfect, but I’ve been a pretty good girl, and I thought we should clear some things up just to be certain. As you […]
