Greetings! I have a lead on a summer job in NDG, so I'm looking for a responsible, hard-working, BILINGUAL (very important) person to take this position. The...

... You don't know the half of it. For some reason, I have omitted the month of May. Please ignore those ramblings about the Brunch in June. I'm addled. Must...
... "Wafting"............... Yeah, right................ :o) So, there *WILL* be a brunch in May, as well as June? Or are we now omitting June as well? ...
Hi Somerwhat over shadowed by the sunday brunch, but a nice ritual nevertheless. It was small and intimate with two students oriental attending who were...

A Vatican official is asking the public to boycott the movie The Da Vinci Code. What the heck is the Vatican afraid of? That people will make up their own...
... *Big Disclaimer* This is just my opinion. I know I'm probably going to get blasted for it, but I personally think that the Vatican is well within its...
Hi Alex! I understand your point value and I find it valid. I cannot say that I am surprised by the Vatican's position. But in my opinion, religious leaders...
... An excellent point, except we are talking about dogmatic religion. Christianity, Judaism, Islam... These are not religions in which someone with doubt or...
Me again! Forgot to add something... Since the beginning of film, with the exception of a few movies (like Practical Magic and Bewitched, for example), most...
As someone who was baptized as a baby and raised as a Catholic, I always had a huge problem with that. For most Catholics, their only source of religious...

... Do you really see it as oppression? Archbishop Amato is entirely correct. The book *is* full of historical and theological errors; many of the Christian...
Hi Martin, Yes, I see it as oppression. Personally, I don't feel oppressed by it, as I don't attend mass, I don't consider myself a Catholic anymore and I can...
... Read Archbishop Amato's message carefully. He is not *ordering* Christians to ignore the movie, and he is not telling them to ignore the whole subject; he...
No way lady! You'll just put them on a t-shirt and sell them at fest! "There's a fine line between being really profound and just makin no damn sense!"...
... Surely though, the Vatican is aware of the adverse reaction this will create. They called for a boycott of Jesus Christ Superstar - result? Much box...
Amato is the secretary of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (Inquisition), taking that into account, the call is to be expected as the very...
Doesn't Dan Brown say in his books that these are work of fiction? I love his work, he's great at creating great stories from some historical facts. It's great...
I don't have a proplem with the details of what Amato says in the press release. You guys are right, it is his duty to defend his religion. What I have a...
