A general question...

Have heard & found the
music known as Taize-
(written in Taize?) to be
incredibly beautiful...

Without having to contin-

ually bug the guys over at
Christus Vincit, does anyone
know if this exquisite music
will still be acceptable during
the Mass?

(Please don't make me look
this up myself)...

Thanks:)



Is there a need

to create myths based on
the reality of the Divine?
Specifically, the prophecies
fulfilled (& to be fulfilled,)
by Christ?

From men such as C.S. Lewis,
and the creators of Super-
man?

An article at Spirit Daily,
& the team from Chesterton
and Friends, (both linked
on the right)- discuss this
very interesting subject.

With the 'Books' button
below linked to an excellent
bio by Joseph Pearce, on
C.S. Lewis.

Great stuff!

from Thomas,
Your Ever Well-Wisher...

Including:

A beautiful site-

The Hunger Site Store
where purchases help to
feed the hungry, God bless
them! and it's getting
linked on the right...
(Check out that gorgeous
wrap- I'd have to get a
whole new wardrobe just
to go with it- oh well, I'm
sure it will match some-
thing:)

Plus, he's got many other
interesting items posted,
but...

(Don't tell him I said this-
skip the bug site- pretty
colors, yes... bugs, of course,
being further proof that God
is a male, obviously with a
grand sense of humor- & no
offense intended, to Him or
to Thomas, but...
Ewwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!) :p

Remember, you didn't hear
it from me!

Some very interesting comments

below, on the Sherlock
Holmes post...


from
Nick & the Nightfly.

A word of warning!
If you check out Nick's site,
don't be drinking anything-

Unless, of course, your screen
needs a good cleaning...



Ooooo...

Mrs. Brown is advertising
that the CDs are available
from the Chesterton
conference- separately or
in a set...
& also posted some nice
pics from that weekend.

Also, she coincidentally
poses an opinion of her
own on matters of a

Sherlock-ian nature...

Oh brother!

Well, I caved:p

I extended my
Amazon order to
August *sigh

Maybe I can borrow
it from the library-

or try Barnes and
Noble instead...

?



Anybody know?

Correct me if I'm wrong...

Read a bio quite a while
ago, that stated that Sir
Arthur Conan Doyle was
also a doctor, an oculist-
(eye doctor) I believe it
was, although quite an
unsuccessful one. He
preferred the title "Dr."
to "Sir," but as a result of
his lack of patients, he re-
luctantly continued writing
his incredibly popular
stories about Sherlock
Holmes.

I have a lousy memory,
so as I said, please correct
me if I mis-state a fact...

Sherlock Holmes was based
on a real man that Conan-
Doyle had worked for. He
was a very successful doctor,
and his astuteness at diag-
nosing a patient astounded
Doyle.

Doyle's position was as an
assistant. He would inter-
view each patient in the
waiting room, carefully
writing down all their
symptoms before they
saw the doctor- described
by Doyle as being a thin,
hawkish looking man...

When the patient would
enter the doctor's office,
Doyle would marvel at
the doctor, who could
"deduce" their symptoms
just by looking at them-
repeating them exactly as
Doyle had written them
down, without having
seen the list...

Do you see what I see?

Hmmm, just a thought...

Perhaps, for next year,

invited to speak at the
