Either way, before we get too excited by all the planning and the listings, let us remind ourselves of the disposition in making...

Christology in the Parables

I find Pope Benedict’s book Jesus of Nazareth such an insightful work. Particularly, His Holiness helped enriched the way I see Christ’s parables. Echoing the sentiment of Reynor’s earlier post, a study of the parables as Jesus’ unique way of teaching is often a worthy exercise, specially as they are just beautiful and reveals to...

He scourges every son He acknowledges…

He scourges every son He acknowledges…

The strongest argument atheists have for the non-existence of God is the presence of suffering. For surely, if God exists, and God is love and God is good, He would put an end to suffering. The presence of pain therefore justifies God’s absence…or worse His rather sadistic nature. Christianity doesn’t go around the question of...

God will know where it went

When I was in third grade, I embarked on a little experiment: I marked my bills with a rubber stamp and a signature before spending them, afterwhich I would wait for the marked money to return to me. In the limited perspective of a child I thought this was rather exciting; envisioning myself later...
