A conservative estimate of the words written by the Dominican theologian-philosopher priest from the 13th century is eight million. His last words were, “Such secrets have been revealed to me that all I have written now appears as so much straw.” Lie down on the couch and listen without thinking too much.
Aquinas read the Vulgate Bible (St. Jerome, A.D. 400). The Vulgate is a late-4th-century Latin translation of the Bible. In 382 Jerome had been commissioned by Pope Damasus I to revise the Vetus Latina Gospels used by the Roman Church. Reading anything that is not a translation of the Vulgate can mislead. Aquinas wrote encyclopedic theological treatises, such as the Summa theologiae and the Summa contra gentiles; Questions on Truth; On Being and Essence; commentaries on Aristotle and on other philosophical texts; and biblical commentaries.

French, Latin, and Greek with English and Italian subtitles enliven this song from Disney's 1996 animated feature, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, sung by Jean Piat, actor, theater actor, voice actor, and writer. (My copy does not contain the Italian. For that, view on YT. The Latin comes from the Mass.) Advocacy of what? TikTok is a communist app. Want your personal information used by China? Keeping using TikTok. If you do, you are a lazy, ignorant American.
Monday morning, Christ returned to Jerusalem. According to the Synoptic Gospels, Matthew, Mark, and Luke, it is on this day that Jesus walked with firm purpose into the Temple and drove out the moneylenders, castigating them for making His Father’s house a “den of robbers.”
Jesus also began His final days giving the people a holy torrent of parables and warnings. Many of His most famous teachings and parables—such as the widow who gave two pennies, the parable of the wicked tenants, and the dispute about paying taxes to Caesar—happened during Passion week. I summarized a message from The Catholic Company. The Last Supper this Thursday is the daily Mass. We relive Passion Week every year. St. Peter's is boring. After the modernists are defeated and a new pope is elected, marches will precede him in the sedia gestatori every time he enters the basilica, 30,000 soldiers in dress uniform, bootlickers having been evicted already and no room for anybody else. He will have two altar boys dressed in junior military uniforms serving him. That's all he needs. No televisions cameras allowed. Mass will be for Almighty God and those present. Military officers and soldiers will be billeted there, take over administration of the city state, and issue a limited number of passports, and world leaders will have to beg for one. Only the Vatican Museum will entertain paying visitors. Church is not an efing museum. Vatican diplomats will live outside the walls: these men reek of perfume. Sample march...1 2 3 4 and 1 2 3 4 Discuss amongst yourselves.

Most psalms were written between 1010 BC and 930, 1,000 years before Christ. Psalm 68, written by King David (born c. 1035 BC, died c. 970), told what would happen to Christ. www.newadvent.org/cathen/12533a.htm Stephaton (Steven), is the name given in Catholic tradition to the Roman soldier or bystander, unnamed in the Bible, who offered Jesus a sponge soaked in sour/bitter vinegar wine at the Crucifixion. He is frequently portrayed in art with Longinus, the Roman soldier who pierced Jesus' side with a spear. "I looked for one that would grieve together with Me, and there was none." I grieve with Him. This has been the strongest pull on me through the years, even more so now that my brother is dead. I propose that no man can be without a brother or brotherhood, and no counter-argument can succeed. In 1989, the George H.W. Bush administration banned the importation of foreign-made, semiautomatic rifles deemed not to have "a legitimate sporting use." It did not affect domestically manufactured rifles of the same type.

So sorry.” However, the origin might be the American detective agency founded by Allan Pinkerton; their motto c. 1855 was 'We never sleep', and the agency was informally known as 'The Eye.' An eye featured in a Poe short story written 1843, "The Tell-Tale Heart." See Reading List for link.

How did Natalia Makarova defect? On September 4, 1970, in a decisive moment, Makarova became the first ballerina to defect from the Soviet Union. Agents from Scotland Yard arrived and took her into protection, granted asylum the next day, and whisked her into the woods outside London to evade the KGB. by Alfred Lord Tennyson
I. The plain was grassy, wild and bare, Wide, wild, and open to the air, Which had built up everywhere An under-roof of doleful gray. With an inner voice the river ran, Adown it floated a dying swan, And loudly did lament. It was the middle of the day. Ever the weary wind went on, And took the reed-tops as it went. II. Some blue peaks in the distance rose, And white against the cold-white sky, Shone out their crowning snows. One willow over the river wept, And shook the wave as the wind did sigh; Above in the wind was the swallow, Chasing itself at its own wild will, And far thro' the marish green and still The tangled water-courses slept, Shot over with purple, and green, and yellow. III. The wild swan's death-hymn took the soul Of that waste place with joy Hidden in sorrow: at first to the ear The warble was low, and full and clear; And floating about the under-sky, Prevailing in weakness, the coronach stole Sometimes afar, and sometimes anear; But anon her awful jubilant voice, With a music strange and manifold, Flow'd forth on a carol free and bold; As when a mighty people rejoice With shawms, and with cymbals, and harps of gold, And the tumult of their acclaim is roll'd Thro' the open gates of the city afar, To the shepherd who watcheth the evening star. And the creeping mosses and clambering weeds, And the willow-branches hoar and dank, And the wavy swell of the soughing reeds, And the wave-worn horns of the echoing bank, And the silvery marish-flowers that throng The desolate creeks and pools among, Were flooded over with eddying song. Composer: Camille Saint-Saëns Orchestra leader: first row, first chair violins (concertmaster) Orchestra: La Camerata y la Orquesta Piccolo de la Escuela de las Artes Teatro del Lago, Chile Artists: Punkrobot Studio Piano: foursome Tennyson wrote the poem in 1830.
Saint-Saëns composed "The Dying Swan" in 1886. Fokine choreographed a solo ballet in 1905. Have you ever read Lesson One, Sex Education, California public schools, 5th grade? Don't. It's disturbing. Dear Mr. Al Gore:
During WWII, Irena Sendler, got permission to work in the Warsaw ghetto as a Plumbing/Sewer specialist. She had an ulterior motive. Irena smuggled Jewish infants out in the bottom of the tool box she carried. She also carried a burlap sack in the back of her truck for larger children. Irena kept a dog in the back that she trained to bark when the Nazi soldiers let her in and out of the ghetto. The soldiers wanted nothing to do with the dog, and the barking covered the noises of infants and children. She smuggled 2,500. In 2007 she was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize. Al, you and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) won the prize that year for "efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change." Before that, you had earned an A on your thesis, "The Impact of Television on the Conduct of the Presidency, 1947–1969", and had graduated with an A.B. cum laude in June 1969. I do not see a science degree in your pedigree. Your net worth is $300M. Al, do you feel good about all that, morally superior to the rest of us, entitled to lecture the world? It must be nice to be perched high. Affectionately, Robert E Dunn vietnam and father Joe - Tap anywhere here for background on an American Jesuit missionary in Vietnam, his connection to me, our love of the people, and much more, including a speech given at Fordham University by Madame Nhu on Oct. 11, 1963. Her brother-in-law was president of South Viet Nam.
Recently, someone on YT criticized Nhu. All she was seeking was to keep Vietnam from becoming a puppet state of the USA or communist China. The educated, trilingual, Catholic beauty was exiled, d. Rome, 2011, 86. This young lady timed her speech to the second and had great inflection, too. She identifies the whole problem with school boards, teacher unions, and many teachers: they don't give a shit about test scores, but universities do. I'm currently tutoring a boy for the SAT. Mr. Roberts is the school bully.
Why are the statues and paintings covered? 56 Abraham your father rejoiced that he might see my day: he saw it, and was glad. 57 The Jews therefore said to him: Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? 58 Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say to you, before Abraham was made, I am. 59 They took up stones therefore to cast at him. But Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple. Padre Daniel Heenan is assigned to Mexico. Why does he kiss the altar multiple times? Christ is the altar. I could attend his Mass and understand it all, or serve, and I don't speak Spanish.
The rosary followed, and from that I learned what contigo means. The best way to learn a foreign language (and the way Latin should have been taught to me in high school) is by studying something you believe in. A pamphlet on manners is as important as the Catechism or the Missal. The only proof I have is an event that 99% of Christians forget, fear, or dismiss. Judas kissed Jesus. This kissing event tells you what custom was; otherwise, the trick would not have worked. What is the root cause of the lapse in manners? Four pseudo-religions and their offspring: Calvinism, Marxism, feminism, and legalism.
Some might not know, but as soon as you vlog the words climate change on YouTube, the algorithm automatically places an advisory on the video. A certain person says, thermometer. This 'somebody' knows all the algorithms. I think a lot of 'send your ship' is there.
