Some things are just way cool...

Eve and Mary by Sr. Grace Remington, O.C.S.O
O Eve!
My mother, my daughter, life-giving Eve,
Do not be ashamed, do not grieve.
The former things have passed away,
Our God has brought us to a New Day.
See, I am with Child,
Through whom all will be reconciled.
O Eve! My sister, my friend,
We will rejoice together
Forever
Life without end.
Tip-o-the-hat to The Anchoress.

Anthony Hopkins has a new "religious" movie coming out, The Rite...
...it may or may not prove interesting We shall see.
The film's release occasioned the penning of a wonderful essay about our faith and the nature of evil. Well worth your time.

Everything you ever wanted to know about the culture of death...
...can be found right here. Just read the first paragraph of the first page of the Grand Jury Report. Murder, infanticide, mutilation... If you're tempted to think this is just an isolated incident read this.
Another good summary of this case can be found right here.
And further proof that vices never travel alone is seen here.

Gotta give The Grey Lady her due...
An imperfect but not terrible op-ed on the Pope's visit to Britain. A bit of stupid but mostly sensible.

Ok, so...this is Evangelicals on Evangelicals.
I'm not bashing...to be honest I can't say I even get the joke completely.
"Sunday's Coming" Movie Trailer from North Point Media on Vimeo.
Fascinating. Hipness and relevance may becoming passe to some American Evangelicals. I know this is some sort of spoof on what's being called the Emergent Church Movement.
Here's another one I don't totally get. I'm told it's a representative spoof of some Mega-Churches.

I've been complaining about the vacuity of the New Atheists for years...
This article explains my frustration WAY better than I ever could.
"Yeah, what he said."

Mark Shea, true to form, summarizes things quite well...
The press, for two solid months has attacked the one guy who has done more to deal with this pestilence than anybody else. They leave in their wake a public made vastly more stupid and ignorant about Benedict, full of moral panic and shrill self-righteousness, but not one whit more able to do anything constructive for victims, vast numbers of whom they care nothing about because they are not usefully Catholic.
Last year, there were six, count 'em six, victims of priestly abuse in an American Church of 68 million people. Their victimizers were flushed from the priesthood with alacrity. Meanwhile, kids are endangered in numbers that are orders of magnitude larger in our public schools and the MSM doesn't care a bit.
I repeat: this is not Reform. This is war on the Church. Benedict is one of the good guys and these jackals in the MSM don't care a bit.

Cool article on women in the Catholic Church...
...the sister (a Ph.D. and Religious Sister of Mercy) who is interviewed is most impressive. The interview covers many of the recent controversies. Several of the tired, old "Why aren't Catholics more like Anglicans"-issues are also considered.

"Choice!" they say...
"Infanticide and/or Murder!" we say. The vicious, vicious culture of death marches on. This age will not be spared from the wrath of the Lamb.
