I throughly love it. Very interesting and well done, except that I have a personal flaw in that I cannot stand certain misspellings. <BR/><BR/>One of these is penance -- which is commonly misspelled as you do, as "pennance". (I know, I know ... I'm a pendant of the worst kind.)<BR/><BR/>Otherwise - great stuff. Carry on!Ben Callicoathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15294700262011077463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19080237.post-21283597928383677802008-11-03T08:56:00.000-08:002008-11-03T08:56:00.000-08:00Having been gone for thirty-five years, this is one of the things I've noticed are missing. There is a decided slant to traditionalists which is intellectualism, they seem to disdain the small. A few years back a priest at an indult parish in Chicago asked me to pray for the holy souls, not as penance, but as sort of a avocation. I've gone through St. Gertrude, Chaterina d' Zena, and Catherine of Sienna, yet I find that the rosary is best. I'm at a loss for words to explain it but we have traveled far from God in forty-six years. I wonder if we know where's the road back.tim mccarthyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00881425971387526869noreply@blogger.com
