The musings and meandering thoughts of a crotchety old man as he observes life in the world and in a small, rural town in South East Nebraska. My Pledge-Nulla dies sine linea-Not a day with out a line.

Word of the Day: Spiritual Reading
SPIRITUAL READING. As the Lectio Divina prescribed in monasticism
from the earliest times, it is all reading that is conducive to prayer and closer
union with God. The Sacred Scriptures have always held the primacy of honor
in such reading, along with writings of the Church's teachers; notably, the
popes and bishops, the writings and lives of the saints, and all other forms
of composition whose avowed purpose as writing is to enlighten the mind and
inspire the will and affections to the worship and service of God.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Leo XIV as the Vicar of Christ, the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
