Mandeville, LA - [The following is excerpted from First Things and edited for continuity - MC, Ed.] The new Star Wars movies start where, forty years ago, the original began. Despite the triumph at the end of Return of the Jedi, the political situation in the Star Wars universe has reverted to its previous state. Note that in none of the eight movies so far is the intensive and painful […]
Mandeville, LA - "I received your dear letter extremely late; it is dated December 12th. It is actually postmarkedJanuary 3rd. The delay of the second date is normal during these holidays, which are for me the worst days of the year, if for no other reason because they are the most desecrated. I agree completely with what you tell me about the current nihilism. It is no longer tragic nihilism, […]
Mandeville, LA - Analogies can easily be multiplied, if one wants to push a thesis; but the point is that the greatest threat to world peace and international justice is the nation state gone bad, claiming an absolute power, deciding questions and making “laws” beyond its competence. The world divorced from the God who created and redeemed it inevitably comes to a bad end. Few there are, however, who would venture […]
Mandeville, LA - "Jesus told his disciples that there will be people at the threshold of heaven, claiming to have done great things in his name, only to be told, “I never knew you”—people like the rich man whose spiritual valuation was all wrong. As we enter the New Year, these warnings should prompt us to consider our own spiritual well-being. If pressed, would you say that you are spiritually […]
Mandeville, LA - [Editor's Note: In this Papal Bull, Pope John XXIII captures the fundamental problem that gnaws at Modern Society: Men are defiant when confronted by the Truth especially when that Truth involves a proper ordering of their lives and their thoughts. This is evidenced by the sheer number of men who choose to not become the head of a household consecrated through Sacramental marriage and the failure, nay […]
Mandeville, LA - If this kingdom was so great and lasting without the aid of the gods, why is the ample territory and long duration of the Roman empire to be ascribed to the Roman gods? For whatever is the cause in it, the same is in the other also. But if they contend that the prosperity of the other also is to be attributed to the aid of the gods, I ask of which? For the other nations […]
Mandeville, LA - About 10 years ago I wrote an article for Austrian readers explaining that American politicians who say they’ll “get government off our backs” have no intention of keeping that promise. Their real plan is to provide favors for their donors at taxpayers’ expense and with a little luck maybe create a new agency to “help the people.” Moreover, those who vote for politicians inveighing against “big government” usually […]
Mandeville, LA - From the Gospels it appears that there were a lot of bigwigs Jesus didn’t like. He spoke harshly about scribes and Pharisees. And he had problems with the religious authorities, who condemned him to death, and rich people, whom he advised to divest themselves of their wealth. (On one memorable occasion, he drove some of them out of the Temple with a whip.) Their basic problem, he thought, […]
Mandeville, LA - Let’s look at it another way: Has there ever been a time when the Church, from pope to parish priest to parishioner in the pew, was perfect? But there have always been saints. There have always been saints because there have always been those few individuals who didn’t, in this sense, fret about what anyone else was doing or not doing, and instead did what they were supposed […]
