Inspired by Truth, Enlightening Minds for the Church in Canada and Throughout the World
The iconoclasm and historical revisionism continues apace in the United States, with statues toppling on the left, right and centre, mainly on the right, and has now spread its new-speak tentacles all the way to Canada. The ‘Elementary Teachers’ Federation’, such as it is, has voted to rename all of the schools currently named after[…]
So President Donald Trump has decided to up the ante in Afghanistan, sending in an as-yet undefined number of troops, with no timeline, no apparent budget, but with some ‘targets’ that they must reach, again, as yet undefined. This is a country of just over 30 million souls, about half the size of Ontario, almost[…]
It seems that our culture in its ever increasing narrative against anything biblical and supernatural must be something that should be doubted, if not scoffed at. Take the recent discovery that Lebanese ancestry share 90% or more of their genetics with the Canaanites, who biblically, were considered to be arch-enemies of the Israelites. The[…]
For those who would like more details on today’s eclipse, check out this webpage, which will give times and forms of the eclipse (90% in Vancouver, less elsewhere). Remember, don’t look directly at it, unless you have the requisite glasses!
A brief note this morning, on this August 21st memorial of Pope Saint Pius X, that, besides honoring one of the great Pontiffs of history (more on which in a bit) today is also brings the rather rare cosmological event of a total solar eclipse,with the Moon blocking out the light of the Sun. By[…]
G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936) was a Christian apologist, novelist, poet, historian, biographer, playwright and author of eighty books. First a convert from atheism to the Church of England, he converted to the Church of Rome fourteen years before his death. As a champion for Christianity he lived in enviable times since he was privileged to debate[…]
Things continue to unfold apace in the United States, as clashes over monuments, history and ‘what it’s all about’ continue. This isn’t really about ‘racism’, a canard thrown about mostly from a bygone era, but rather about what we might call ‘culturism’. That is, what is our culture, what are all those things we hold[…]
In the eyes of God, the smaller and more hidden things in this life are often those of the greatest moment in the sight of eternity. Such we witnessed yesterday, when a young woman offered her life to God in religious life, publicly professing the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, her whole life and[…]
I will surely multiply your pain in childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children. (Genesis 3:16) Ironically, although technological advances have made it possible for the act of parturition (childbirth) itself to be relatively painless, no one can deny that the process of rearing children to be good and responsible members of society[…]
I thoroughly enjoy books which give great insight to the inner workings of man’s character and soul while being breathtakingly eloquent. Character-driven, the substance of my preferred novels are usually heavy with tight-lipped drama and caged passion which cannot seem to break its chains, and usually span years and decades in their timelines.
