\u2026 I\u2019ll get back into full swing next week. I\u2019ve been spending most of my time preparing for a conference<\/a>. So far my notes consist of this\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

I\u2019ll be discussing motherhood and Rule of St. Benedict, followed by a workshop on divorce\/remarriage within the Church. If you could spare a prayer for my nerves, that would be fantastic. Maybe I should write \u201cdon\u2019t drink\u201d on the other hand, just to be on the safe side. <\/p>\n

In the meantime, here\u2019s some stuff for your consideration. <\/p>\n

From Eye of The Tiber<\/em> \u2014 Man May Have Accidentally Skipped Bead; Begins Decade Over Again<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Spencer went on to say that although it usually takes him approximately 20-minutes to say a rosary, he was now moving on to his second hour and still on his first decade. At press time, Spencer was questioning whether he had said a Hail Mary on the bead he was fingering when this interview began, or whether that was the next bead up.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This post on clericalism<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Clericalism is a mindset, an attitude, a perspective. It patronizes and denigrates those who disagree and uses ad hominem attacks to belittle. When a priest speaks disrespectfully to an elderly woman and embarrasses her publicly at Mass merely because she exercises her legitimate option (as defined by Rome) to kneel or genuflect at Communion time rather than just stand, that is clericalism. When the faithful are denied their legitimate option to receive Holy Communion on the tongue or confession behind a screen, that is clericalism. When women are ridiculed and scoffed at by priests for wearing chapel veils, which is their option, that is clericalism. When some of the faithful ask the pastor if the Extraordinary Form could be celebrated in their parish and the priest goes ballistic and insults them and calls them fanatical, schismatic rad-trads, that is clericalism. When priests who wear roman vestments and lace albs instead of burlap potato sacks and moo-moo albs are laughed at and slandered by gossip among their brother diocesan clergy, that is clericalism.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From Verily Magazine<\/em> \u2014 A TANGLED WEB: DON JON HIGHLIGHTS REAL-LIFE EFFECTS OF INTERNET PORN<\/a><\/p>\n

For Gordon-Levitt\u2019s first written and directed feature film, Don Jon (which sensitive viewers should know is filled with porn clips) raises a good question: Does our culture have an unhealthy relationship with porn? Has it diminished our view of women, relationships, and sex in general?<\/p>\n

Don Jon is a bold contribution to a recent trend in entertainment, giving audiences a real\u2014and grim\u2014snapshot of 21st-century relationships. Call it post\u2013Sex and the City realism. There\u2019s the recent film Lovelace, contrasting the exciting story, as we were told it, of Deepthroat star Linda Lovelace, and the completely un-sexy version as it really was. There\u2019s Girls on HBO, known for showing ugly, lifelike sex scenes. There\u2019s Lady Gaga and Miley Cyrus, managing to make ultra-risqu\u00e9 performances devoid of any sex appeal. It\u2019s as if sex is no longer sexy in pop culture. What was once a warm and alluring mystery is now a cold, anatomical display. If intimacy is dead, porn may have killed it.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That\u2019s one post I\u2019ve been meaning to write for years<\/em> now. My experience with pornography in my own marriage. Next to abortion, there is nothing in this world I loathe more than pornography. <\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
