This is a few days old, but it is so good to hear Father Corapi’s voice and to see him recovered from illness. I especially like his hairstyle and beard combo. If I didn’t have such full, lustrous hair, I might do the same.

I will leave it to you to decide which one is closer.


Via the monsoon, a funny list of Catholic indicators.  The Mark Shea one is spot on, but no uber Catholic would buy the Steubenville one:

    Thine Eyes and the National March for Life

    12 Tuesday May 2009

    We all know that the mainstream media coverage of the national March for Life is hopelessly skewed against Pro-lifers, with the crowd sizes routinely and intentionally understated.

    In a worthy effort, a crew of pro-lifers made a movie about the March, which is previewed in the video above.  Even the clip is remarkable for showing the immense support for the pro-life movement.  There is a website with more information, called Thine Eyes.

    Check it out.  These don’t appear to be “Catholic Taliban”, as one commenter on the Verastegui post used the phrase.

    “YOU ARE THE ONES WHO ARE HAPPY; YOU WHO REMAIN WITHIN THE CHURCH BY YOUR FAITH, WHO HOLD FIRMLY TO THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE FAITH WHICH HAS COME DOWN TO YOU FROM APOSTOLIC TRADITION. AND IF AN EXECRABLE JEALOUSY HAS TRIED TO SHAKE IT ON A NUMBER OF OCCASIONS, IT HAS NOT SUCCEEDED. THEY ARE THE ONES WHO HAVE BROKEN AWAY FROM IT IN THE PRESENT CRISIS. NO ONE, EVER, WILL PREVAIL AGAINST YOUR FAITH, BELOVED BROTHERS. AND WE BELIEVE THAT GOD WILL GIVE US OUR CHURCHES BACK SOME DAY.”
