No, the truth can’t be changed (Pope
Francis meets opposition from church traditionalists, October 21).
That
fact goes a long way towards explaining the tension between the Catholic Church
which professes Jesus Christ who being Truth will never change, and the media
whose existence depends on change and so are hell-bent, one might say, on its
promotion.
‘Canto fermo’ is the term for an existing melody used as the basis for a new composition. The prose and poetry of mystics like John of the Cross, Teresa of Avila and Edith Stein – all informed by the Gospel – is my ‘melody’. The ‘new composition’ is this blog and my indie novel ‘The Age for Love’. To buy my book go to amazon.com or smashwords.com and download to your kindle, iPad, phone or any reading device.

GRATITUDE ATTRACTS FURTHER BLESSINGS (Letter to Dom Post, October 9)
After the Angelic intervention which probably
saved Tim Allcock’s life (Crash victim now believes in Angels, A1, October 9),
instead of buying a Lotto ticket he could buy Remi the bull terrier a harness so
she doesn’t lose hers.
And he should thank God. He wasn’t ‘lucky’ to be
found, he was blessed, and gratitude attracts further blessings.
