Tindomiel Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 "A good novel tells us the truth about its hero; but a bad novel tells us the truth about its author. " G. K. Chesterton "A room without books is like a body without a soul. " G. K. Chesterton "Be not afraid to tell Jesus that you love Him; even though it be without feeling, this is the way to oblige Him to help you, and carry you like a little child too feeble to walk." St. Therese of Lisieux "The greatest proof of Christianity for others is not how far a man can logically analyze his reasons for believing, but how far in practice he will stake his life on his belief. " T.S. Eliot "Freedom consists not in doing what we like, but in having the right to do what we ought. " Pope John Paul II Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resurrexi Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 32 Q. What should a Christian do who has been given a Bible by a Protestant or by an agent of the Protestants? A. A Christian to whom a Bible has been offered by a Protestant or an agent of the Protestants should reject it with disgust, because it is forbidden by the Church. If it was accepted by inadvertence, it must be burnt as soon as possible or handed in to the Parish Priest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prose Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 "It is, in point of fact, extremely improbable, under existing conditions, that Jesus would have been permitted to be born at all. Mary's pregnancy, in poor circumstances, and with the father unknown, would have been an obvious case for an abortion; and her talk having conceived as a result of the intervention of the Holy Ghost would hvae pointed to the need for psychiatric treatment, and made the case for terminating her pregnancy even stronger. Thus our generation, needing a Savior more, perhaps, than any that has ever existed, would be too humane to allow one to be born" - Malcolm Muggeridge.

Tindomiel Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 [i]"The poet only asks to get his head into the heavens. It is the logician who seeks to get the heavens into his head. And it is his head that splits. "[/i] G. K. Chesterton [i]"Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes, our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to the small and arrogant oligarchy of those who merely happen to be walking about. "[/i] G. K. Chesterton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
