Family Synod Conflict Is Not What You Think It Is . . .

Last updated on: October 16, 2015 at 1:01 pm By Artur Rosman

In my worst moments I am temped to promulgate a #SynodSitIN by the power of my personal Magisterium against the #SynodWalkout quitters. However, I promised to not dig around in all the Synod trash that’s circulating. Yet, this does not preclude me from propagating sane expert analysis, especially when the cray-cray of the #SynodWalkout tends to confuse things even more than they already are. What follows is a guest post from Chris Johnson originally featured on his blog. ============= Chris... Read more

Ocean Symphony, Breeze, & a Liturgy: Sam Rocha’s Folk Interview

Last updated on: October 15, 2015 at 3:52 am By Artur Rosman

Sam Rocha is my dear friend. Besides that he is also Assistant Professor of Philosophy of Education at the University of British Columbia. He is author of A Primer for the Philosophy and Education (Cascade Books, 2014) and the recently released Folk Phenomenology (Pickwick Publications, 2015). This interview probes the guts of Folk Phenomenology. ======================================== Artur Rosman: What, if anything, distinguishes your Folk Phenomenology from phenomenology itself? Is it an inflection of the regular phenomenological method? or a whole new way... Read more

Holy Fire & Brimstone! Archaeologists Unearth Sodom?

Last updated on: October 14, 2015 at 5:49 am By Artur Rosman

There are historically significant happenings you might be missing while you obsess about the fabulous doomsday ejaculations of writers such as Damian Thompson who leads this week with the subtly phrased title, THIS WEEK THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IS IN CHAOS. AND POPE FRANCIS IS TO BLAME. His unquotable stream-of-consciousness prose cuts way into conspiracy theory territory. He makes Jeremiah sound like a paragon of mental health. I mean, what’s going on here? Is Damian Thompson trying to put Chick Tracts out of business? Why... Read more

Catholic Gore Galore on the Synod’s Sidelines

Last updated on: October 13, 2015 at 9:04 am By Artur Rosman

I’ve promised I’ll keep away from commenting upon the Synod on the Family through my Cradle Catholic Open Letter. I’m not about to break my promise. My stance is still firmly: We’re the laity, you do your own thing Synod Fathers. Call us when you’re done. As a result, I have to swim down for other bloggish tributaries since I’ve cut off this avenue of delicious intrigue and discussion. Let’s start with Gerard Nadal. He is frequently too ideologically Republican... Read more

Reprint of the Year: Bloy’s The Woman Who Was Poor

Last updated on: October 10, 2015 at 1:14 pm By Artur Rosman

St. Augustine’s Press is probably familiar to you as a publisher of both new books, and reprints of old favorites like Camus’s Christian Metaphysics and Neoplatonism. This fall brings another fine reprint title, yet another old French favorite. The novel in question has been out of print for so long that it’s skipped a generation or two of awareness. I’m talking about Leon Bloy’s immensely influential novel The Woman Who Was Poor. Its influence alone makes it the reprint of the... Read more

No Bible? Fine. No Liturgy? No Christianity.

Last updated on: October 11, 2015 at 7:05 pm By Artur Rosman

For some of you the sentiments of the title for this piece might be as crooked as a Frank Gehry building. Yet, there are historical and theological nuggets of wisdom hidden there. Admittedly, it is another opportunity to scandalize our Protestant brethren and the bibliolatrous tendencies of American Catholics. As far as the latter go, I’m thinking those paragons of Evangelical Catholicism who might freak out upon reading this title and reassert that “CATHOLICS DO READ THE BIBLE! [yeah right],” or recommend... Read more

Cradle Catholic Open Letter: Stop Protestant-splaining #Synod15!

Last updated on: October 8, 2015 at 3:55 pm By Artur Rosman

The letter and overly-earnest essay are the order of the day for apocalyptic-Protestant panicking about the Synod on the Family. Open letters have cropped up all over the place. The left wants to change everything to fit the Charamsa-mold. Whereas, the right has oddly enlisted both Protestants and former Protestants for their version of Cafeteria Catholicism. The latter is more interesting, because the left’s complaints and proposals are so stale and routine they write themselves. The right, on the other... Read more
