    • sometimes i capitalize words that I find important in the sentence, even though it would not be grammatically correct.

    • It's a German thing -- they capitalize all Nouns.

    I find that interesting.

    • Neuro-Linguistic Programming, from the likes of Darren Brown?

    He said you could insert thoughts into peoples' minds by marking words in a normal paragraph -- it would go right past their conscious thought into their subconscious.

    There are some interesting videos of Darren Brown on Youtube.

    I am thinking of writing a book on the history of EENS over the next ten years, and I am positive something like this, some kind of suggestive hypnosis, was used on people through the misuse of terms like invincible ignorance.

    Think about it.  The Jews and Muslims were around in the time of St. Thomas.  The term "invincible ignorance" was around in the time of St. Thomas.  But would St. Thomas have ever thought to apply invincible ignorance to a Jew or Muslim to say he could be saved?  Ein solches Denken würde mich erstaunen aus der Zeit von Aquins!  Yet we hear it now and it sounds perfectly orthodox and normal to us.  

    The good news -- I have relented somewhat on NFP, and no longer drag it into every post.  The bad news:  The EENS bug has bit me big time.

These include rejecting the "rhythm method," rejecting the idea of "implicit faith," and being brieflfy quasi-Jansenist. I also posted occasions of sins and links to occasions of sin, not understanding the concept much at the time, so do not follow my links.

    I will guess that it has something to do with Philip the Fair and the Templars.

    I have the original cover for their fifth and last album, "Live at the Inferno." Whatever happened to those guys, anyway?

    • It is in Carlyle's History of Fr Revolution that the quirk occurs. I would not recommend reading him as he falls for just about every Card Rampolla type hysterical rumor that comes around.

    I would recommend Mrs Webster, Madelin, Taine ir Barreul.
