  • Mary's Virginity: the Testimony of History

    First, I'd like to apologize for my extremely long silence. My wife became pregnant (we're so excited!!! - she's 18 weeks and five days along now) and was home for several months, so I had other things on my mind and less time available to access the computer. However, she's back in school again, s…

  • Edible Baby Jesus?!

    In considering my Christmas grocery list, I was reminded of the tiny cake topper that my mom passed down to me years ago, comprised of a no more than one inch high Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus in the manger. It was lost long ago, probably in one of the many moves our family has been through. Thinki…

  • Mary, A Virgin Betrothed

    Growing up, I remember imagining Jesus as a little boy, playing with other children around Him. Maybe they were His siblings, maybe they weren't; to be honest, the question of whether Mary had given birth to them or not never really entered my mind. What always did catch my imagination, though, was…

He said that it was from St. Louis de Montfort that he took this motto. De Montfort’s way to union with C…

  • Are Catholics Christians? Pt. 2 of 2

    First, I will write what the Catholic Church teaches from their Cathechism, and directly under it, I will write what the bible-based, Christian church teaches from the Holy Bible. The Cathechism of the Catholic Church is the first official summary of Roman Catholicism in over 400 years. Catholics so…

    Preface: Before I go any further, if you are sensitive or do not have a sense of humor then get the hell on! This entry is not for you.You may not know this if you've seldom read my site, but I consider myself quite the deep thinker. As often as I have talked about nonsense I have also tried to occa…
