Sigh, moderates are hard to find

11 September 2014 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

Purchase Tramadol Overnight You may have read that Senator Ted Cruz was booed off the stage at the In Defense of Christians conference. What makes it really bad is that people from differing viewpoints were deliberately invited to that conference. What could have been a speech that would express one point of view for the sake of discussion, […]

Saint Raphael on The Episcopal Church

https://drcarlosarzabe.com/dr-carlos-arzabe/ 9 September 2014 · by  Fr. Ernesto 5 Comments

I found the letter below on the Orthodox History website. I can remember going to Nashotah House (an Episcopal seminary) and seeing a photograph of St. Tikhon with various Episcopal bishops. At the seminary I was told that this was proof of the closeness that there had been between Anglo-Catholic Episcopalians and the Orthodox. And, […]

8 September 2014 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

  Recently, I received a question through the e-mail from one who had become Orthodox. I have made sure that neither his name nor his place of residence is mentioned. My answer to him is below. I have edited it mildly to make it read better. ======= It took me longer than I thought to […]

Babyboomers, we so do not have a legacy

6 September 2014 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

We are currently enduring the worst Congress in American history and it’s packed full of Baby Boomers who are no better at compromising than a 3-year old on methamphetamines, and comprehend internet privacy and drone laws just as well. So the Baby Boomers inherited the most robust manufacturing force on the planet and then sold […]

Love, discipline, Romeo, Juliet

5 September 2014 · by  Fr. Ernesto Leave a Comment

Where are these enemies? Capulet, Montague? See what a scourge is laid upon your hate that heaven finds means to kill your joys with love! … Whiles Verona by that name is known there shall no figure at such rate be set as that of true and faithful Juliet. … A glooming peace this morning […]

Behold, this hath touched my lips

2 September 2014 · by  Fr. Ernesto Leave a Comment

In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple. Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. And […]

Current Who season

1 September 2014 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

I am a Doctor Who fan. I must say, however, that I am not yet impressed with the current Doctor Who. At this point, he does not appear to have the charisma of previous Doctor Who actors. He is doubtful about himself. He does not really carry himself with the panache and confidence of previous […]

The “sixes” of Spain

31 August 2014 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

Most of us think of liturgical dance as being something that began in the 1960’s and 1970’s. We look at it with deep suspicion, and to some extent rightfully so. The 1960’s version of liturgical dance involved women in leotards doing modern expressive dance to certain of the hymns. By the 1970’s, as Evangelicals pick […]

Groan, another Internet tale

24 August 2014 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

Look at the quote below, found in a Slate article: According to Christian mythology, the hemlock plant became poisonous after growing on the hillside of Jesus’ crucifixion. When his blood touched the plant, it turned forever toxic. Now, some of you may be saying that you have never heard any such thing. Well, neither have […]

23 August 2014 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

Look at the video above about two police officers in the Saint Louis area. If you are wondering at the why of the rampant distrust that exists in the Ferguson area, this will give you some indication. Note that I am NOT saying that all officers are like the above, but it only takes a […]
