When it came out last week, I had intended to write a lengthy rebuttal of Peter Leithart's First Things. Piece " The End of Protestantism. Of which traditional Anglicans are so uniquely proud.

You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you odd.". Tuesday, December 17, 2013. Yes, but what does it MEAN? I'm taking the occasion of Pope Francis' birthday- which he's celebrating. By inviting some homeless people to breakfast- to talk about the hermeneutical challenge he seems to pose to so many traditionalist and conservative Catholics. Lapsed Catholics and standard-issue worldlings seem to love him, as if they just knew. Called to radiate light and communicate life, in the end they are cau...

Sacramentum Vitae: Beyond 4th-century trinitarianism
http://mliccione.blogspot.com/2013/02/beyond-4th-century-trinitarianism.html
You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you odd.". Friday, February 08, 2013. Fr Al (Aidan) Kimel has a series up at his recently founded blog about St. Gregory of Nazianzen's trinitarian theology. For us theology geeks, it's well worth a read.
