The History of the Peloponnesian War - Thucydides

I don't think it would be too extreme to say that I abhor Thucydides.... :mellow:

I am reading Truth and Tolerance, by the then-Cardinal Ratzinger.
It is very good and helps a former rad-trad, understand the current theological position in a light that is not tainted by the traditionalist propaganda circulating in those circles on relgious liberty. I am also reading Milestones by Ratzinger, and Cardinal Gibbon's Faith of Our Fathers.

Let me know if Faith of Our Fathers is worth reading. It was on my Amazon reccomendations and I almost bought because I once worked at a museum which had formerly been an all boys Catholic schools called Gibbons Hall after Cardinal Gibbons. However, that is the only thing I know about Cardinal Gibbons.

I'm reading "Victory over Vice" by Bishop Sheen. I encourage everybody to read it because it is a real eye opener. ;-)

The two books on my bed (yes, I sleep with them there) are currently the CCC and the Dialogues of Gregory the Great. I'm [i]loving[/i] the deacon Peter at the moment!

Love and prayers,

PP
