Text of the page (random words):
s father copernicus to you just as the big bang theory was posited by a french priest father georges lemaitre flemming of course is referring to the galileo affair which without even looking i m sure wikipedia treats fairly jp2g apologized profusely for this gaffe let us remember that it wasn t just christianity but the whole world who kept up with science such as it was pre modern and modern when startling new findings were proposed discovered there was always some resistance from all quarters science keeps changing its story or rather refining it discovering new layers depths etc so does christianity in its own way development of doctrine nuance better understandings explanations for god s immutable reality truth why is it that only science is allowed to make boo boos and claim infallibility at the same time some items in the doc that are just wrong brian calls charles manson and other mentally ill or criminally insane people christians brian makes fun of the victims of the waco massacre calling them 86 crispy fans of the rapture brian dates the writing of the gospels much later than their actual writing because the gospel of mark mentions the destruction of the temple 70 ad but this was a prediction of the temple s destruction jesus died in 33 ad nope cause he was born about 6 bc everyone knew that the crazy monk who made our calendar was off by a few years even his contemporaries but he wouldn t listen brian puts forth all kinds of undocumented claims jesus may have died before a d everyone forgot about jesus after he died until paul came along no mention of the apostles missionary work the church in rome etc brian ignores all extra biblical documents and sources around the time of jesus like the jewish historian josephus official roman documents etc all he mentions are gnostic sources and gnosticism is not christianity it s a completely different religion atheist author sam harris chillingly states you can t just say that human life is sacred and so it is based on your religious beliefs i hope he thinks that secular humanists could say it based on their humanism and based on the fact that we are human and we love our species or something i hope he thinks human life is special and worth something there are like no normal christians in the doc except some sweet and made to look ignorant because they possibly were billy graham crusade go ers and no catholics who would tell ya in no uncertain terms that faith and reason are bffs brian shows lots of clips from rabid bigoted anchormen hair televangelists from the 70 s and 80 s like dawkins brian reads the bible at face value and concludes that god is a tyrannical homophobic misogynist jealous mean murderous despot he says the god hates fags wackos are right if you re a good believer you should be stoning sinners moderate christianity makes no sense actually christianity makes no sense at all except from the inside so i can totally see how he would come to this conclusion from the outside this also why sola scriptura is impossible we need the church to explain the scriptures to us what belongs to the past what is still in vogue how god has changed in his ways of dealing with his people that s also why the new testament the new covenant is truly new brian lumps the hebrew scriptures old testament with the new brian states that paul only preached a heavenly jesus not an earthly one as though paul didn t know jesus had an earthly life it was common first century preaching to emphasize the divinity of jesus also the gospels took care of meticulously covering jesus earthly life in paul what we have is follow up pastoral letters not his original kerygma first preaching of the gospel to a people just because paul didn t talk about mary and joseph doesn t mean he didn t know about them paul says what he needs to about jesus lineage of david the fact that he was true man born of a woman under the law galatians 4 4 also the people paul was talking to at least in jerusalem knew jesus themselves 1 corinthians 15 6 some things in the doc that are just right clips from a delightful 1905 silent movie of the life of christ kind of steal the whole show love those victorian angels faith and reason should go together if faith does not think it is nothing st augustine atheist author sam harris is right dogmas should be examined critically otherwise you re in a cult as i tell the teens if any religion or anyone else tells you not to think or they ll do your thinking for you run it s not of god who is the donor of our brains and expects a return on his investment to just throw something into the realm of faith or belief does not make it out of bounds or a conversation stopper the christian story what god did in jesus christ isn t completely totally different from other ancient and contemporaneous myths why not 1 because this is god s world there are inklings of god everywhere including in the psyches of mythmakers cultures religions the human heart there are seeds of the gospel everywhere 2 god is all about incarnation coming into what is 3 jesus wasn t as interested in being intelligible to gentiles as to the jews and the jews had a very unique god story we christians are the wild olive grafted onto the domestic olive tree that is judaism we cannot evangelize christ without evangelizing the history of god in israel spiritually we are all semites pius xii 4 yes the difference with this myth is that it s true 5 yes satan likes to set up his bogus counterfeit sham reverse perverse lookalike parody kingdom everywhere not that all others myths religions are demonic by any means but satan likes to get his tail into the panoply of religions and multiply confuse divide and conquer check out the book of revelation for satan s happy palace that looks suspiciously like the lamb s yes some of the bible is folklore inspired folklore should you see this dvd if you wish it s simply nothing new does not add to the conversation it s

movie so redeemed itself tokyo sonata the story of a japanese businessman who loses his job and the impact it has on his family is unfortunately all too appropriate for our times sonata has already won ten film awards and has opened in chicago at the music box theater each member of the family has their secrets hopes and dreams the dutiful wife who keeps everyone s secrets the musically gifted younger son the older son trying to find his place in the larger world beyond japan when the father loses his job he is too ashamed to tell his wife so he pretends and goes off to work every day he meets up with an old friend in the same condition he is also fooling his wife just the sight of the two of them briefcases in hand all dressed up for success and no place to go is an apt image of the economic crash the culture of honor weighs oppressively on everyone and one wonders if family life is really this formalistic in japan but in spite of the father s perpetual look of terror anger and humiliation this is not a downer movie we have no idea and neither do they how they will solve their problems so the suspense is taut we fear the proverbial japanese suicide rather than failure solution the plenty of lighter moments keep us hoping this will not be the case our american imprint on japanese culture is everywhere in sonata for being such a recent influence wwii but we know that our countries histories are vastly different and something else is at work here there is certainly no christian worldview or assumptions the mother is truly the heart of the family and the mediator for the contentious relationships between father and sons everyone seems to let their guard down and speak freely and humanly when the father s not around the father himself lets his guard down when he s not at home everyone feels they are playing a role and the characters speak about this which the father is directing as though it is some sacred tradition that must be continued even though it is making everything worse then three quarters of the way into the movie the movie falls apart badly first a few false notes creep in and then who stole the movie the very first false note was when the older son returns home from war bizarre misfortune after bizarre misfortune strike and suddenly there is tons of non subtle humor and other stuff is funny that s probably not supposed to be funny and this near perfect trim movie is ruined by turning it into either a european style existentialist film or some kind of japanese philosophical meandering but then after everyone finishes processing their innermost thoughts by talking out loud to themselves everyone shuts back up and we are treated to a breathtaking hushing lump in the throat heart clinching hope filled non verbal ending that gets to dad too perhaps the wildly spun out of control piece was meant to be just that the surreal free fall when our world comes apart and you never know what can happen if you stick it out i left the theater smiling ear to ear semi spoiler alert the actor playing the younger smart alecky son was keeping a secret from us the audience he really is a phenomenally talented pianist of special

but the mom says it s more complicated than that and it s not so bad playing the mother the father seems to be in some kind of competition with his sons as though he doesn t really want them to

translation of hv is at www vatican va our masculinity and femininity is the fundamental element of our being human it s everywhere in scripture in the eastern church the week after easter is the week

church liturgy has a cycle that has to be respected acknowledged and celebrated by all and so does a woman we reread the language of the body in truth jp2g fr loya likes to call it honesty the h zone paul vi said for the world to understand hv they ll have to have a complete correct understanding of the human person but a sacramental catholic worldview was missing so most rejected hv even those who should have known like theologians p 617 in man and woman he created them the whole of tob was to give this view of the human person in order to explain hv that s why the text wraps up with some reflections on humanae vitae we should start finding truth by observing contemplating the created order nature because the created order came first there is an order it is the natural law e g gravity instead of people starting from the natural order they start from something else a desire will ideology that they try to twist the natural order into e g not observing the economic order has caused disaster the order of the conjugal act is twofold can t be separated mutual love of the spouses procreation the innermost structure of the conjugal act is what happens every time so its meaning is tied up in both these things 1 union communion of persons 2 potential for life so we try to artificially separate them if we try to pretend they can be separated with no consequences we are wrong removing either 1 or 2 is very damaging precepts of the natural law belong to the jurisdiction of the magisterium in one sense there s no teaching of the church we just say this is what god did said the church is just the press secretary for god priests were not taught how to explain hv they were taught it will change just tell people to follow their consciences because hv is natural law it is

yes it involves asceticism when something is difficult or challenging we rely on god pastoral concern means seeking the true good of man not just making things easy for people the pastoral plan is
