Scripture, Tradition, and Ecumenical Councils, part 06

3 October 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto Leave a Comment

This will probably be the least satisfying posting, both for myself and for those reading this. Remember that it took decades for the Church to work out the four negatives (only-begotten, recognized in two natures, without confusion, without change, without division, without separation) that define our Lord Jesus Christ. I have very little faith that […]

Biden vs Palin, next morning hangover

3 October 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto 2 Comments

Just like last time, I am posting a little next morning notes after I have had the opportunity to “sleep” on the debate. So, what everyone is asking, “Who won?” On technical points, there is little doubt that Sen. Biden won. That was expected. In fact, had he done anything but win, it would have […]

Biden vs Palin, 70 minutes to end

2 October 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

An interesting beginning, both were quoted by the moderator on remarks that showed less than exciting opinions of the vice-presidency. Gov. Palin got the first answer and was able to make a little joke out of her response. Sen. Biden was not able to answer the question quite as directly as Gov. Palin because he […]

Biden vs Palin, 50 to 70 minutes

2 October 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

They are still on foreign policy. The subject has been on the Middle East for several minutes now. Again, both of them are going at it, toe to toe. I am amazed at the high level of debate that has been expressed in the last few minutes. I feel like I am getting much more […]

Biden vs Palin, 30 to 50 minutes

2 October 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

Gov. Palin is going right after Sen. Biden, while, so far, Sen. Biden is being much more cautious with Gov. Palin. (In passing, the moderator is a very strict time-keeper, and, so far, she is asking the hot-button questions for both sides.) Now here is something unexpected! Both sides just spoke out for civil rights […]

Biden vs Palin, first impressions

2 October 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

You will notice that there is no post for the first 1/2 hour of the debate between Biden and Palin. That is because I was at a Bible Study. And, yes, I think a local Bible Study is of more significance than a national debate. Because I missed the beginning, I can only say that […]

Scripture, Tradition, and Ecumenical Councils, part 05

1 October 2008 · by  Fr. Ernesto 2 Comments

It took a little longer to return to this subject than I thought. But, what is Holy Tradition? In order to understand more about Holy Tradition, it is very helpful at this time to use a way of speaking that is much more common in the East than in the West. And that is what […]
