So today is my birthday, and next week is Spring Break… probably the last Spring Break of my life. Meanwhile, my friend James “Roger” Losey just got his Masters in Physics, and looks like the paper he was working on with his professor might get published. (Warning: it’s incredibly boring, but wonderfully nerdy). Anyways, the… Continue reading Ireland Next Week!

March for Life Today!
At March for Life today. It’s a great experience, so come if you can make it! I’ve got a post set to auto-post later today- otherwise, I’ll be back Monday!
Touché!
Chris sees my “In the late 60s, dissident theologian Charles Curran lead a revolt against Humane Vitae, and was largely successful in the US: how many birth control homilies have you heard?” …and raises me, “I’ve heard Fr. Andrew (as in your co-blogger) blasting birth control from the pulpit a few times now at Prince… Continue reading Touché!
Another Blog Worth Keeping an Eye On
First, I apologize for slacking on my duties as a contributor to this blog. Joe has been extremely patient with me and I am very grateful for his understanding. I am a great fan of his work and I’m still humbled that he lets me post. That being said, I’d like to give a plug… Continue reading Another Blog Worth Keeping an Eye On
Blog Worth Keeping an Eye on For Reading Fans
You may remember my friend Carlos Olea as the guy who loaned me his laptop indefinitely in October when I lost first my laptop, and then my girlfriend’s (although in my semi-defense, hers was stolen, not strictly lost). Anyways, two cool developments: He got a new laptop for Christmas, and told me I could keep… Continue reading Blog Worth Keeping an Eye on For Reading Fans
Happy Thanksgiving!
Wishing everyone a great Thanksgiving. It’s a wonderful time for friends, family, fun, and food, and to remember all of the gifts which God has given, a reflection particularly important in this time of economic hardship.
National Catholic Reporter’s “Young Voices”: An Exercise in Dissent
In its continued assault on the Catholic Church, the National Catholic Reporter has published yet another hateful piece in its “Young Voices” section (it’s the third bullet point below). If you’re not familiar, Young Voices is the worst part of NCR’s editorial section. It’s staffed by four young people: Nicole Sotelo, Kate Childs Graham, Mike… Continue reading National Catholic Reporter’s “Young Voices”: An Exercise in Dissent
Laptop Saga: A Wonderful Turn of Events!
My friend Carlos Olea discovered from this post that my laptop had been stolen, and that the laptop that my girlfriend loaned to me was stolen as well. And so he did the most recklessly charitable thing he could: loaned me his laptop indefinitely. I’m gonna try and not get it stolen, of course. This… Continue reading Laptop Saga: A Wonderful Turn of Events!
Laptop Stolen! (Twice!)
A few weeks ago, I took the red-eye from Kansas City to D.C. I made it back to my apartment, unpacked, repacked, and headed to class. I sat for a while waiting for the Metro, got on, made it about a stop and a half, and realized I’d left my backpack on the bench at… Continue reading Laptop Stolen! (Twice!)
Cool Undergound Stone Churches
Catholic Eye Candy cheats a bit by including the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church’s underground stone churches in Lalibela as Catholic art. It’s worth fudging the self-made rules, I think. If you haven’t seen pictures of them before, check them out! If you’re interested, Wikipedia’s got a good primer including a good quote from Fr. Francisco… Continue reading Cool Undergound Stone Churches
