Notes from the Fathers

From Epistle to Diognetus – chapter 6

To sum up all in one word–what the soul is in the body, that are Christians in the world. The soul is dispersed through all the members of the body, and Christians are scattered through all the cities of the world. The soul dwells in the body, yet is not of the body; and Christians dwell in the world, yet are not of the world. The invisible soul is guarded by the visible body, and Christians are known indeed to be in the world, but their godliness remains invisible.

Great Read

What’s So Great About Christianity by Dinesh D’Souza.

I took this with me while riding my bike.  You can go for miles, all the while wishing you could upload D’Souza directly into your brain.  He takes on the atheists, the “brights”, modernists, progressives, Darwinists and sundry hogwash.  Great discussion of Galileo and his reformation, the Crusades, the Inquisition and Darwin vs. Darwinism.
