18 January 2011 · by  4 Comments

Father Orthoduck has researched the origins of the above video to try and make sure that it is accurate. It appears to be, although Father Orthoduck must point out that it is a couple of years old and therefore it is out of date. 😯 In the last couple of posts, Father Orthoduck has pointed […]

The word statistics did not exist in English until 1787, so the saying cannot come from prior to that. A mathematician from the […]

He came to us, God with us.

24 December 2010 · by  Fr. Ernesto 1 Comment

On this day the Virgin cometh to a cave to give birth to God the Word ineffable, Who was before all the ages. Dance for joy, O earth, on hearing the gladsome tidings; with the Angels and the shepherds now glorify Him Who is willing to be gazed on as a young Child Who before […]

Some guardian angels look a little different

15 December 2010 · by  Fr. Ernesto Leave a Comment

This is a small “shout out” to those who are Marines, Semper Fi. And, as we all know, there is no such thing as a retired Marine, there are only Marines who are not currently on active duty. No, I am not going to say that the Marines are guardian angels. I have known enough […]

Australian take on Wikileaks

8 December 2010 · by  Fr. Ernesto 2 Comments

Here is Australia’s take on the Wikileaks scandal. I find it interesting for several reasons, but read part of it for yourself: Australia’s foreign minister has said the US is to blame for the release of thousands of diplomatic cables on Wikileaks, not its Australian founder, Julian Assange.
