Pope St. Pius X's Encyclical Against Modernism, Pascendi

Pascendi Dominici Gregis ENCYCLICAL OF POPE PIUS X, SEPTEMBER 8, 1907 VENERABLE BRETHREN, HEALTH AND THE APOSTOLIC BLESSING: 1. One of the primary obligations assigned by Christ to the office divinely committed to Us of feeding the Lord's flock is that of guarding with the greatest vigilance the deposit of the faith delivered to the saints, rejecting the profane novelties of words and the gainsaying of knowledge falsely so called. There has never been a time when this watchfulness of the

Sundance Watch: Line-Up Announced

Todd McCarthy talks to Sundance Film fest director Geoff Gilmore about the Sundance 2009 competition feature, documentary and world cinema line-ups. One can only hope that given the current economic climate, last year reps the attendance peak of a fest that desperately needs to scale back anyway; if a lot of companies and folks can't make it this year, I'm going to be greedy and selfish and say, "all the more for us!" Even during the frantic party swag-hog years, it was always possible to tun

Sundace Line-up Announced

The “old” year isn’t closed yet but we’re about to jump into a new cycle of film viewing and Sundance has announced their 2009 line-up of films, a handful of which we’ll get to see in the new year with a peppering of a few more that will likely end up on some shelf somewhere. My first thought checking out the list is that there’s nothing all that outstanding in the dramatic competitions though there are some great sounding documentaries. A few that did catch my attention: John Hindman’s Arl

The case of the mysterious blooded bandage wings...

The case of the mysterious blooded bandage wings... Posted by Alpha Auer Last year, at some location which, alas, I no longer seem to be able to recall, I bought something which touches me so deeply to just look at that I hardly ever wear it in public. I put them on when I am all by myself, on days when I feel particularly reclusive and never for too long even then: They simply make me too sad. My beloved blooded bandage wings. So, it really is more than just a little strange that I am post

A Christmas Lie

The other day one of my good buddies let me know that his oldest daughter has finally let it be known that she no longer believes in Santa Claus. This is quite a large blow to parents. It is nice to have that little piece of a fantasy world in which your children believe. Once the secret is out Christmas tends to lose a bit of its magic. That is truly the day that childhood ends. No more tip-toeing around on Christmas Eve placing gifts around the tree. No more “Mommy and Daddy are going ou

Athenaeum

Introducing the new Druid Journal Athenaeum. What is an athenaeum? Athenaeum (noun).  Originally it’s from Greek Athenaion, “of Athena”, borrowed into Latin and then into English around 1700. It first referred to Athena’s temple, and the teaching and performance rehearsal that was done there. (Pronounced ath-en-EE-um.) Spiritually, the sounds of athenaeum tell a story of Source energy that travels a path of trials and challenges, and empties into a relaxed pool; then is gathered up, narrowed

The Hills: More Like Bucket Full Of Boring

Tonight's episode of "The Hills" is one of those "fallout" episodes, one where everybody just talks about what happened last week. As if the rest of America didn't just do that last Tuesday. In any case, one important question looms: can the soul-deep friendship of Blahdrina and Lauren possibly survive the crushing false accusations Blahdrina has put forth to the world? And a second question: when a Pratt grandma dies, who gets the estate? Whoever sucks up the most. At the LauLo Haus, the

Best & Worst Of 2008: Leftover Turkeys Of The Year

Yeah, most publications published their “Turkeys of the Year” during Thanksgiving week. We’ve never been one to go against the grain, so we’re doing it in conjunction with the rest of our Best & Worst of 2008. Anyway, most of the folks and events that we designate below aren’t really “Turkeys.” Turkeys, when handled properly, are plump, juicy, and well seasoned. These folks and events don’t qualify. They’re more like leftover turkey that has been sitting out for a while: greasy, tough, tas

Clinging to the Wreckage (I): Murder, Inc. -- The Continuing Obscenity of U.S. Foreign Policy

BY ARTHUR SILBERSourceOur troops did the job they were asked to do. They got rid of Saddam Hussein. They conducted the search for weapons of mass destruction. They gave the Iraqi people a chance for elections and to have a government. It is the Iraqis who have failed to take advantage of that opportunity. -- Hillary ClintonIt's not change when [McCain] promises to continue a policy in Iraq that asks everything of our brave men and women in uniform and nothing of Iraqi politicians..." -- Barack O

Free book download for December: part of Morning & Evening, by Charles Spurgeon

I have used this devotional from Spurgeon several years, with great profit. As you know, CHS is no model exegete; yet time and again, I've found his way of presenting Gospel truth to be a real balm and encouragement to my soul.I'm listening through Spurgeon's autobiography, which I got during ChristianAudio's recent sale. It's being absolutely delightful. I had avoided it, since period biographies tend to dwell forever on generation after generation of unremarkable dead ancestors, and every boar

Great crowds came to him, having with them the lame, the blind, the deformed, the mute, and many others. They placed them at his feet, and he cured them. The crowds were amazed when they saw the mute s

Frankenstein by Mary Shelley (1818)

Part of Frankenstein Almost-A-Week …I collected the instruments of life around me, that I might infuse a spark of being into the lifeless thing that lay at my feet. It was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out, when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs… …I had selected his features as beautiful. Beautiful!–

His friends, a long-term committed couple of seventy years old, hope for him to find the love they share. Also Henry is full of hopes for this cruise, since he believes in romance and has not lost the faith that somewhere out there there is his soul mate. But when Henry enters the cruise ship, he has a bad surprise: the cruise is yes for g

My Take on the Eden Fantasys Drama

People keep asking me my thoughts on the on-goings at EdenFantasys.  I’ve kept mum on it for a variety of personal reasons, but here are my thoughts on it now, for anyone that wants to know. Many of you, but not all of you, are aware that I used to work for EdenFantasys. First, I was just a reviewer. I was then hired in August 2007 to come on as an assistant editor/copy-editor. From there, I began the blog, increased the review program, added perks, brought on addition bloggers, and became the

I'm Sticking With God

   God's loyal love couldn't have run out, his merciful love couldn't have dried up. They're created new every morning. How great your faithfulness! I'm sticking with God (I say it over and over). He's all I've got left. Lamentations 3:22 (TM) Recently,  I had the privilege of attending a Jeremy Camp concert with my daughter and some friends. As an avid contemporary Christian music fan, I have enjoyed his music for years. However, I was very surprised to hear of Jeremy's testimony and the st

Exclusive Interview With Tedjo Bhayu Adjie from Heaven On Earth

Heaven On Earth is such an exceptional band. They know exactly what satisfaction is all about, and that’s what they’re focusing at. For them, it’s important to express their real passion freely without thinking too much on the popularity. The music they played at JakJazz 2008 was superb. Difficult compositions with amazing improvisations were there on stage, played by 3 high-skilled musician. It was fusion at its best, it was complex, yet nice to hear, especially if you close your eyes and le
