  • As I said before, Pope Benedict does get one right every so often. He is not saying anything that Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, or even Nietzsche, yes Nietzsche would disagree with.
    Pray for me, always.

    Hence, music of this type must be excluded from the Church on principle, and not merely for aesthetic reasons, or because of restorative crankiness or historical inflexibility.


    Excluded from the Church? Of course...but what about everywhere else? How about World Youth Day, too.
    It would be comparatively easy for us to be holy if only we could always see the character of our neighbours either in soft shade or with the kindly deceits of moonlight upon them. Of course, we are not to grow blind to evil
