From poor to pope, 1984 Renault has seen it all
Pope Francis is putting a new spin on what it means to be the pope as he continues to put the poor in the driver's seat.

Francis at the six-month mark seems a force of nature
As it's come to be understood in the 21st century, the papacy is really an impossible job. A pope is expected to be the CEO of a global religious organization, a political heavyweight, an intellectual giant, and a media rock star, not to mention a living saint. Any one of those things is a life's work; rolled together, they're a prescription for perpetual frustration.

Catholic Workers rely on grace, guts, luck in 80-year-old mission
This year we celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Catholic Worker movement and the 43rd anniversary of the Los Angeles Catholic Worker. Just a few months after we opened our doors, Ammon Hennacy died. With the closing of his Joe Hill House of Hospitality in Salt Lake City, the newborn Catholic Worker in Los Angeles, Ammon Hennacy House, became the oldest Catholic Worker west of the Mississippi -- in fact, in 1970, the only Catholic Worker west of the Mississippi.

A divinely written icon: Orthodox theology can lead to new Christian thinking on creation
Every year on or around Epiphany, a group of Eastern Orthodox Christian faithful from Denver forms a carpool caravan and drives three hours to the Continental Divide at Monarch Pass, Colo. They make this trek to bless the snowpack because they know that the spring melt will flow east and west down the Rockies to feed the life-giving streams and rivers of the lands below. It's a holy feast and a community celebration for the priest and parishioners who attend. They make an altar out of snow (with a few occasional snowballs tossed), and sometimes have to shout their prayers over the January winds that blow hard and icy on these high peaks.

Catholics and Protestants Together On Law: Is There A Christian Approach To Law?
Some Protestant and Catholic lawyers, professors and writers have come together to suggest a basis for a Christian approach to law. I have skimmed it and came away thinking that they didn’t really come together. But I intend to review it in more depth. Here is the link, let’s discuss…

A dovolím si sem prepostnúť – aspoň z časti - aj maily od someone, pretože sú aktuálne:
Pedofili na Gay Pride
„S tymi pedofilmi na Prague Pride to nie je sci-fi, zial,
staci si pozriet tie linky nizsie,
ide skor o to, co a ako sa o tom pise a siri
Ale, cim viac nad tym uvazujem, tym viac mi k tomu prichadza ako odpoved:
Ak NEnapises zle bude, ale ak napises bude este horsie. A nie naopak, zial.
Mlcat znamena nechat sa Slovenskymi katolickymi, asi aj sirsimi krestanskymi kruhmi, sirit poplasnu spravu, ktora vychadza z dezinterpretacie faktov.
Ozvat sa vsak zas bude interpretovane len a len ako obhajoba a podpora pedofilov (a ich konspiracie ovladnut vesmir... vid napr. ciernohumorne podane v http://nataliablahova.blog.sme.sk/c/336 ... ticia.html )
A ak sa tak dezinterpretuje ozvanie sa od niekoho, koho meno sa spaja s Gay Christians, tak uz to bude cele v haji.“
A članok od Jurova, ohľadne pochodu za život, to by bola téma na samostatný update

A to je na tento týždeň všetko

Tým, ktorí idete na Pride, želám šťastný Pride, nech ste s týmto ročníkom spokojní, ja si budem musieť počkať na letnú edíciu.
